Chapter 037: Copying the Book
The old man squatted on the ground with his ears covered, and waited for Qin Bing to finish yelling before he picked out his ears and stood up, "Where did the young man get so angry, my old man was sleeping just now, he was in a daze, you disturbed the old man's sleep It is very immoral, do you know?" Anyway, now that you've got the book, go ahead and go quickly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Didn't you say you could stay here for three days?"
"Is there one? When did I say that? ”
Qin Bing wanted to say something, but the surrounding scenery was distorted and changed, and then there was a huge repulsive force all around, Qin Bing only felt that it was dark in front of him, and returned to the empty library pavilion.
Before, Qin Bing still felt that although the library in Liyang City was a little empty, it was at least tall and spacious enough. But after experiencing the library pavilion in Wangcheng, Qin Bing felt that the library pavilion in Liyang City was more cramped and cramped, one was a book house, and the other was a sea of books, which could not be said at all. Moreover, what I saw just now was only the tip of the iceberg of the Wangdu Library
At this time, three rays of light fell from the sky and hit Qin Bing's forehead, and Qin Bing only felt that something had entered his mind. After his head was dizzy for a while, he finally came to his senses, and Qin Bing found that he had three more books in his mind, three pieces of paper to be exact.
The first one is the cultivation exercises, including the range of acquired warlocks and innate warlocks, a total of eight or nine thousand words, and an illustration. On the second sheet is the introductory and advanced skills of drawing talismans, at most 350,000 words. The third sheet is the classification of rune ink, rune paper, efficacy, matching tips, etc. There is a lot of content on this paper, more than 200,000 words, and hundreds of illustrations, which is very conscientious.
Then, Qin Bing saw the strange old man with white hair, and when he saw his old face, Qin Bing had itchy hands and wanted to beat him.
The strange old man hurriedly dodged and said from a distance: "The little baby doesn't know the rules too much. ”
Qin Bing snorted, "Is there anything else?" ”
The old man dragged Qin Bing to the table, pointed to the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table and said, "Copy those books in your head." ”
"What? Copying books? ”
The old man had a straight expression on his face, "Yes, do you know how many book coins were spent on these three books?" Do you know how much manpower and material resources we spent in Liyang City to exchange these book coins? It's a great blessing to be able to let you copy books, aren't you satisfied? ”
The old man pointed to the one-person-high bookshelf next to him, and the rows of books on the shelves, and said proudly: "See, this is the books that we have accumulated in Liyang City for decades, and each one is a rare masterpiece." With the addition of your three books, our collection of books in Liyang City is finally over 100. ”
In Qin Bing's heart, Teacher Cang wailed: "Piracy is so justifiable, this old man is also wonderful!" ”
However, Qin Bing still sat down honestly and copied the content in his mind word by word. At this time, Qin Bing realized that those books were like engraved in his mind, and they had been firmly memorized without memorizing at all. At this time, Qin Bing finally understood what the strange old man meant when he said, "It's already a great blessing to let you copy books".
The cultivation exercises on the first piece of paper have been copied, but when it was the turn of the pattern on the paper, Qin Bing made a difficulty, because this picture was vivid, delicate and realistic, every line was full of mystery, and it revealed an indescribable atmosphere, it was impossible to draw it at all, at least not at the level of Qin Bing.
"Old man, there's a picture on that cultivation technique, I really don't know how to draw it."
The old man's face suddenly showed a look of disappointment, "It's this kind of exercise with a visualization map again, then there is no way, you can copy the next book." ”
Qin Bing immediately began to transcribe the book on the knowledge and skills of drawing symbols, which was full of text descriptions and did not have any illustrations, so it was easy to copy it.
The third book is about the selection and production of talisman paper, talisman ink and other talisman drawing utensils, and the different effects of different materials on the spirit talisman.
For example, when the rooster is mixed with the rooster's comb blood, because the rooster is an auspicious thing that chases yin and leads to yang, the chicken is called the "yang essence" -- the essence of the sun, and the rooster's righteousness is all gathered in the rooster's comb.
In addition to this, there is also a cicada wing ground mixed into the rune paper, and the rune paper can increase the success rate and power of the wind attribute spirit rune. Because there is a saying called "the golden wind does not move the cicada prophet", the cicada has an extraordinary perception of the wind.
After reading this book, Qin Bing knew that there are so many exquisiteness and skills in drawing talismans, and these skills are often the result of some people's wit or thousands of trials, without the guidance of this book, many people may not be able to think of it in their lifetime.
The strange old man had been watching Qin Bing copy the book from the side, and when he saw Qin Bing wandering, the old man seemed to be able to read minds, and said: "Understood, it only took you an hour, but you learned the experience that others have gained by groping for ten years." There is no end to knowledge, I have an end to my life, and I should pursue the avenue in this way. ”
Qin Bing already had an opinion about the strange old man, and when he heard his words again, he immediately retorted: "Copying books is clearly stealing other people's achievements, but in just one hour, it has stolen other people's ten years of exploration, is this despicable act glorious?" Should it be commended? ”
The strange old man grinned, "Little doll, it's not our Liyang City family who copies books, it's all the cities in the world doing this." Otherwise, where do you think the collection of books of those great families who are 'rich in learning' and 'sweating and cows' came from? Poetry and books are heirlooms, if you don't copy them, where do you get so many heirlooms of poetry and books? ”
Qin Bing was angry in his heart, but he didn't know how to refute the blame old man. After all, the strange old man was talking about the big family, and Qin Bing was just a small warlock.
The strange old man picked up the paper on the table, pursed his mouth to dry the ink, and said softly: "Little doll, I know your thoughts. But if you think about it again, we have thousands of warlocks in Liyang City, and those who are qualified to enter the library pavilion are only talking about dozens of people, and these dozens of people are not all of them. Otherwise, how could I have only copied such a few books in Liyang City for decades. And just a few dozen books, but they are a common resource for all the warlocks in our workshop, otherwise, where do you think their cultivation exercises come from? ”
As he spoke, the old man bound up the books copied by Qin Bing, put them on the shelves, and then counted them one by one as if looking at his own children.
"One...... Two...... Three...... Ninety-Eight ...... Ninety-nine...... Hundred! The strange old man sighed with satisfaction, "I didn't expect that the old man would be able to save a hundred books in his lifetime, and my Liyang clan can be regarded as a 'scholarly family'." ”
Qin Bing didn't care about the old man's words, but looked at his hand blankly, the hand that had just copied the three books. The palms of his hands were white and not stained with any ink, but for some reason, Qin Bing wanted to wash his hands immediately, and washed them fiercely for three days and three nights.
The strange old man turned around, "There are a hundred books here, all of them are from our collection in Liyang City, and they can be shown to you for free, well, give you three days of reading time." ”
Qin Bing didn't answer, and walked straight out.
Behind, the strange old man shouted loudly: "Hey, little doll, if you miss this village, you won't have this shop, don't regret it later." ”
Qin Bing stood still and slowly turned around.
The strange old man's face showed a "I knew it was like this" expression.
But Qin Bing shook his head, "I've already dirty my hands, I can't stain my eyes anymore!" ”
