Chapter 23: History of the Pre-Qin Dynasty

After eating a random breakfast in the canteen, Chen Qingyang didn't want to go back to the dormitory so early, so he found a classmate on the side of the road and asked for the direction of the library.

In the past year of cultivation, Chen Qingyang has read more books than he has read in the previous twenty years or so combined, mainly to crack the ancient scroll he brought back, but unfortunately he has not found any books about the ancient scroll so far, and even the ancient characters on it are not elegant, as if it is a font that appeared out of thin air.

The reason why Chen Qingyang wants to go to the library is to try his luck, maybe he can get the answer he wants from it.

The library of Fuhai University is located on the edge of a lake called Amber Lake, with pleasant scenery and a faint tranquility.

The building of this library is not grand, but it is also unique, it is an antique building, the Zhu Lou Cui Pavilion, beautiful.

Although this library is not large, it has a collection of more than 7 million books, second only to the National Library in China, and many scholars come here every day.

At this time, it was just past seven o'clock, and there were already many students in and out of the library, you must know that this was the first day of school, and this kind of learning atmosphere did surprise Chen Qingyang.

Chen Qingyang was just about to raise his feet to enter the library, but was stopped by a security guard at the door, and he learned that he needed a library card to enter the library, but Chen Qingyang, a freshman, how could he have a library card?

There was a stalemate for a while, but the security guards still refused to let Chen Qingyang enter.

"You're a freshman?"

At this moment, an old but thick voice came from behind Chen Qingyang.

Chen Qingyang turned around and found an old man with a pale face looking at him with a smile.

The old man was wearing a gray-white Mao suit, he was over the age of antiquity, but his figure did not have a trace of rickets, and his body was full of elegance and peace, and his dark brown eyes were full of a touch of wisdom that had been tempered over time.

Chen Qingyang had seen such a look in his grandmother's eyes.

"Hello sir, I'm a freshman." Chen Qingyang said in a polite tone.

Although he didn't know who the old man was, but with such a temperament, Chen Qingyang guessed that his identity would not be simple.

"Curator, he doesn't have a library card."

Different from Chen Qingyang's politeness, the security guard bent down slightly, obviously with respect.

Chen Qingyang couldn't help but look at the old man twice, but he didn't expect that he was actually the director of this library.

The old man waved his hand slightly, showed a kind smile, and said: "It's okay, our library will never refuse anyone who is thirsty for knowledge because of a library card, let him in, but young man, if you want to borrow a book, you should wait until you get a library card before borrowing." ”

Chen Qingyang nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and after thinking about it, he still asked, "Curator, I don't know where the ancient books are?" ”

Chen Qingyang's purpose was very clear, that is, to check out books about ancient texts, and he was not interested in other books at all.

As soon as he heard that Chen Qingyang was looking for ancient books, the old man's wise eyes flashed with an unexpected light, and he asked, "Seeing that you are young, do you still have research on ancient texts?" ”

Lin Guiyuan was a university professor of Chinese before his retirement, he has a soft spot for ancient literature, and even almost obsessed with the realm, he once deciphered a "pre-Qin Ye History", which contains many obscure ancient words and sentences that are a major mystery today, but he has deciphered them one by one in modern Chinese, causing a great sensation in the industry, and he is a pivotal existence in the field of ancient literature research.

Now hearing that Chen Qingyang, a freshman, asked where the ancient books were placed as soon as he came to the library, Lin Guiyuan was indeed very surprised.

"The old gentleman laughed, he didn't talk about any research, he was just interested." Chen Qingyang shrugged his shoulders and said.

In fact, Chen Qingyang is a little modest, he has spent most of his time frantically flipping through ancient books this year, coupled with his memory that is far beyond ordinary people, with his current research and understanding of ancient literature, he is definitely not weaker than those so-called experts.

Of course, there is naturally no comparison with a Taishan-level ancient literature researcher like Lin Guiyuan.

Lin Guiyuan nodded with a smile, pointed to the staircase not far away and said, "The ancient books are on the second floor, you turn right directly after you go upstairs, and you can see it at the end." ”

"Thank you, sir." After Chen Qingyang thanked him, he went directly to the second floor.

Chen Qingyang didn't know that Lin Guiyuan stood in place and watched him go up to the second floor, with a faint smile on his face all the time.

Following the direction Lin Guiyuan guided, Chen Qingyang soon found two rows of five or six meter-long bookshelves full of quaint books.

Most of these two rows of books are yellowed, giving off a faint smell of paper decay.

Chen Qingyang slowed down, his eyes shining, and carefully examined the books on the shelves.

A few minutes later, Chen Qingyang's glowing eyes couldn't help but dim, because he was disappointed to find that he had read most of the books here, and occasionally found an eye-catching ancient book, flipped through a few pages and closed it again.

After half an hour like this, Chen Qingyang didn't find a useful ancient book, and just as he was about to leave with disappointment, there was a very unique book in the upper right corner of the bookshelf out of the corner of his eye.

Compared to the other yellowed books, this book is very new, as if it had just been printed and put on it.

On this bookshelf full of ancient books, there is such a brand new book, which is indeed a bit unusual, Chen Qingyang stopped for a moment, and then reached out and took the book down.

"Pre-Qin Ye History?"

When he saw the title of this book, Chen Qingyang was slightly stunned.

During this year, Chen Qingyang did read a lot of ancient books, but rarely dabbled in the history of the pre-Qin era.

Pre-Qin refers to the historical era before the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, referring to the historical stages from the legendary Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the Warring States Period, through the Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Spring and Autumn Period, and the Warring States Period, and some people even compare the pre-Qin to the source of Chinese civilization.

The oracle bone inscription that shocked the world in China appeared in the Xia and Shang periods.

Chen Qingyang doesn't know much about the history of the pre-Qin period, but for the oracle bone inscription, Chen Qingyang has studied it for a period of time.

It's a pity that there are not many books on oracle bone research, and Chen Qingyang can't study and understand it in depth.

Chen Qingyang opened this book of "History of the Pre-Qin Ye" with excitement, and when he saw the familiar modern text, he was immediately a little stunned.

"This is actually a translation?" Chen Qingyang smiled bitterly, no wonder this book is so brand-new, it turned out to be just a translation of "History of the Pre-Qin Dynasty".

Although it was a translation, Chen Qingyang still read it patiently, and the beginning of the book was about the development and evolution of the pre-Qin era, and it did not interest Chen Qingyang until he turned the fifth page, and a strange and strange word appeared in Chen Qingyang's sight.
