Chapter 13: Yunyuan Library
Su Mu walked, feeling still a little panicked in his heart, crossed the bridge, looked behind him, the store manager alliance in the south lane did not chase after him, although they were all Liucheng Lane, but they did not have the slightest intention of going to the north lane to investigate.
Slightly relieved, Su Mu took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Qian Kun, asking where they were.
After a while, Qian Kun sent a voice, the voice was a little noisy, and it seemed that there were many people around.
"Big guy, we have just left Zhenjiang Baicaotang now, and we are walking in the direction of the Bai Family Pharmacy, it is said that the recycling price will be higher, you can come here directly!"
Su Mu felt a little helpless, as soon as he came back here for the first time, how could he know the location of the Bai family's pharmacy.
"Let's go around and then go find the two of them......"
Looking at the various items placed in the palatial shops around, Su Mu's eyes lit up a little, whether it is the scale of the shop or the order, it is much higher than the South Lane, the streets are neat and tidy, paved with blue bricks, and most of the people walking here are wearing masks, exuding good cultivation, and there are some people in black clothes walking in groups on the street, as if to maintain order.
Su Mu walked around, and suddenly such a small attic appeared in front of him, the architectural style was out of place with the surroundings, but there was no sense of being out of place.
It was a wooden attic that was silent on the side of the road, and the scene inside could be faintly glimpsed through the retro wooden window lattices.
"Yunyuan Academy?"
Su Mu silently recited the four words on the plaque with elegant strokes, was slightly distracted, and walked in unconsciously.
The decoration of the small house is mainly wooden, the style is not so much classical, but ancient, everything is like old goods from the last century, but the air is filled with a faint sandalwood, without the slightest smell of rotten wood, in the rain of ink outside, the story house is a little dim light, revealing a unique charm.
The slightly dilapidated shelves are neatly arranged with books of various colors, which look old but spotless.
Facing the gate is a pair of calligraphy and paintings, what is the specific painting Su Mu can't understand, at first glance it looks like a random splash of ink, but if you look closely, it looks a little like undulating mountains and rivers, and like an endless sea of clouds, with a restrained charm.
And the writing is cursive 'stones from other mountains'
A middle-aged man sat at a wooden table in the corner, looking at the person who walked into his shop with a peaceful smile, and his eyes reflected Su Mu's expression, and then disappeared.
Su Mu took out a book from the bookshelf and read it.
He was reading quietly, he was quietly looking at him.
Su Mu didn't know how to choose such a book, the pages were a little yellowed, and there was a dry leaf as a bookmark, exuding a faint smell of ink, the words inside seemed to be copied by hand, but they were very neat, and there seemed to be some kind of charm between them, which made people look very comfortable and reassuring, and the feeling of quenching thirst was also a little lighter.
This book "Jiangzuo Shen Yinlu" records the story of a born sword immortal in the hidden world, recorded in the form of a history book, and the whole text is a little obscure, but Su Mu's language has always been very good, and it does not affect reading.
When reading books, time always flies quickly, Su Mu unconsciously finished reading the first article, half of the book was finished, but a term lingered in his mind.
"Tai'a Sword?"
When he saw the Tai'a Sword in the story, Su Mu thought of the Tai'A Sword Intent Jade Pendant in his Heavenly Spirit.
In "Jiangzuo Shen Yinlu", the protagonist's family is passed down to be one of the ten famous swords, Tai'a Sword, but he was coveted by the people in the rivers and lakes, and his family was slaughtered.
Like many old-fashioned novel plots, there is nothing worth savoring, but the description of Tai'a Jian in the story is very similar to what Su Mu feels.
Fierce, domineering, contemptuous of all beings, lonely and high.
Su Mu shook his head and put the book back on the shelf, but before he knew it, there was a middle-aged man in white next to him, still smiling at him peacefully.
Su Mu was taken aback, but he didn't know if he was used to it or what, his expression reacted half a beat slower, and he still looked like he was not shocked.
"What kind of books does this guest need?"
Su Mu said: "Just take a look, but I want to take a look at books related to martial arts cultivation." ”
The middle-aged man in white smiled, stretched out his arm and said, "Please come with me." ”
He took Su Mu and went upstairs.
The second floor is completely different from the layout of the hall for the sake of atmosphere and aesthetics, and it is a real library, which is clearly arranged there, just like the one in the school.
The white-clothed shopkeeper introduced as he walked: "The first floor of the library is full of anecdotes about the rivers and lakes, and the second floor covers all aspects of the martial arts rivers and lakes, of course...... If you need some information or something, the library will also provide it for a fee. ”
"All the books you need are here, take your time and don't worry, it's open every day."
Su Mu seems to understand a little, the difference between the North Lane and the South Lane may lie here, the South Lane is purely a place for martial artists to trade privately, while the North Lane is an orderly and clear industry, but the things sold in the two days when the market is open are different.
He nodded in acknowledgement and slipped between the shelves, flipping through the light.
Ever since he came into contact with this martial artist, he has been suffering from not being able to truly touch the realm of a martial artist, and only the Fisherman's Pavilion perfunctorily teaches temporary workers some common sense.
With his own efforts, Su Mu cheekily consulted people from all walks of life while doing the task, and only then did he have a little understanding of the cultivation system of martial artists, felt the flow of qi, and barely entered the realm of a heavy building.
His thirst for martial arts knowledge is not the slightest bit, it is like a surging river, and he can't wait to move all the books on the second floor home.
……
On the first floor, the middle-aged man in white returned to the front of the stage, sat down, picked up the brush he used before, but found that the ink had dried up, he looked at a half-written book on the table, smiled and shook his head.
"The one who comes is a guest, so why be afraid?" He said calmly.
At the door, three people dressed in different clothes, wearing masks, walked in.
"No bothering, we're just ordered to track down the man just now." A somewhat petite woman at the head said.
The middle-aged man in white smiled and said indifferently: "The library is compliant, and there is no need to check again." ”
The woman hesitated for a moment, then clasped her fist at the shopkeeper who did not have the slightest fluctuation of qi, and said, "Farewell!" ”
Subsequently, the three of them neatly left the store.
"The water in this Yunyuan Academy is really deep!"
The masked woman at the head muttered to herself.
"Commissioner Xia, do we still want to ......?"
"Yunyuan Academy, skip it, all the other medicinal material trading places have to be figured out, and there is no need to follow this person, he has no intention of going to the pharmacy at all, he has been with him for so long!"
"Yes!"
