Chapter 32: The House of Gold
Lin Cha's sense of direction is not very good, and he is not good at recognizing the road, and after saying goodbye to Qi Yuan and the four of them, he took the wrong direction and the wrong road.
It was also a long time to have lunch before, and she talked to Qi Yuan and the four of them, and when she didn't find the right direction easily, she walked all the way and asked all the way, and when she finally arrived at the "Golden House", it was almost 3 o'clock.
The "Golden House" is very large, with a total of three floors, where you can borrow and buy books. Each floor has large floor-to-ceiling windows that give a direct view of the street outside. In order to take care of the reader's reading mood and feelings, two rows of neat tables and chairs are placed by the floor-to-ceiling windows on each floor, and customers can sit and read freely.
In the center of the hall in the "Golden House", there are four big characters pasted on the top: Tranquility can give birth to wisdom.
The atmosphere is very good, and the people inside try to keep it as quiet as possible, and choose or read their own books.
Lin Cha was not familiar with the classification and arrangement of books in the "Golden House", and considering that searching by himself would waste time, he walked directly to the front desk of the hall to ask.
"Hello, excuse me, I want to ask if there is a "Classic of Mountains and Seas" here, where can I find it?" She tried to keep her voice low so that the front desk clerk could receive her inquiries clearly.
"I'll check the computer records, you wait a minute", the other party was a young little brother, wearing the clothes in the store, with the words "Golden House" printed on them, polite, and typed the keyboard on the computer for about a minute, "There are here, but this kind of books are relatively niche now, and they are all placed in the Z area on the second floor, the second row, you can go up and find it." ”
"Okay, thank you." Lin Cha thanked him simply.
Lin Cha on the second floor silently recited the order of the letters in his heart, and found the Z area in the innermost position on the second floor, most of which are relatively unpopular books, "I Ching", "Yellow Emperor Neijing", "Tao Te Ching", "Zizhi Tongjian", Lin Cha carefully swept over, and finally found the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" on the shelf in the second row.
There are different publishing houses and typesetting forms, and Lin Cha probably translated some of them, and chose the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" with vernacular translations and illustrations in it to make it easier for him to understand.
"Hello, I'll buy this and check out." Lin Cha returned to the front desk and bought the book first.
"You found it", the young brother smiled at her, and scanned the barcode on the back with a code scanner, "36 yuan, do you want to scan the code with your mobile phone to pay or cash."
Lin Cha is still in school and doesn't use a mobile phone, so she is not interested in these things.
took out the 50 yuan that he had just handed to Qi Yuan from his pocket and handed it to the brother at the front desk, "Pay in cash, please make change, thank you." ”
Lin Cha looked at an electronic clock under the big words "Jing Neng Shenghui", which showed half past three in the afternoon.
She looked around the ground floor. There are not many people around, all of them are paying attention to what they are doing, and there are many places next to the floor-to-ceiling windows. She looked down at the mirror of the gift bag.
There is still time, and the environment is quiet, so just find a quiet seat in the store and take out the things in the mirror.
Lin Cha sat next to the floor-to-ceiling window against the wall, with the wall behind him, which could maintain a certain degree of concealment and a sense of security.
Put the freshly bought "Classic of Mountains and Seas" on the table and place it on the left-hand side.
Sandwiched on the back of the mirror are three ordinary sheets of A4 paper, with no lattice and no horizontal lines, folded in half.
Lin Cha opened the three sheets of A4 paper from the folded line, and his fingers trembled a little.
She was scared and nervous. I'm scared of opening the inside and nervous about what I'm going to see next. The heartbeat in my chest increased.
Lin Cha took a deep breath, closed his eyes and counted three times silently, and slowly exhaled that breath, slowly calming down and opening his pure eyes.
On the white paper of A4, there is water-based black handwriting, and the font is delicate, which should be in Ms. Su Mian. Lin Cha recognized her mother's handwriting.
