Ye Jinyu wanted money very much, but he didn't want to break his promise to the national teacher, and there was a faint sense in his heart that he didn't want more people to know about the super mysterious existence of runes, even if others tempted him with money. So he shook his head and said, "That's a pity, that book is also from another customer, and people don't want to spread it." So I can't promise you. ”

Seeing Ye Jinyu's persistence and resoluteness, the old man didn't insist anymore, sighed and said, "Alas, that's it; If I hadn't told my friend about such a good book, he would have blamed me for it. Since the little boss doesn't want to borrow the book, forget it, I'll call my friend and let him see how much your book is worth. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his phone and dialed it. Ye Jinyu hurriedly asked Wang Zhiqiang to pour a cup of hot tea for the professor and let the professor take a seat.

Not long after, a small car stopped in front of the copy shop, and an old Taoist priest walked in with a small Taoist priest.

"Poor road Yuxi, I have seen all the laymen."

The old professor was waiting to be sleepy, and when he saw the Taoist priest appear, he immediately became energetic, stood up and said: "The old Taoist priest came just in time, I found a good treasure today, but unfortunately it is useless to me, but it is cheap for this bull-nosed old Taoist." ”

When the old Taoist priest saw this professor, he immediately shouted a Taoist sign: "Meritorious Heavenly Venerable, it turns out that Li Jushi is still here; I don't know what treasure Li Jushi has found, so he has to come to the poor road. ”

The professor surnamed Li hurriedly greeted Ye Jinyu: "Quick, little boss, show your baby, and shake this bull-nosed old man who has cultivated the true inheritance and has not invaded oil and salt." "The professor seems to have a good relationship with the Taoist priest, and he is unscrupulous when he jokes.

Ye Jinyu was in a hurry to sell the book for money, and when he heard this, he immediately handed the book to the old Taoist priest.

The old way is not good, take the book and open it to read. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, after all, this book is not too old, and it doesn't look like an antiquity with age. But after looking closely, the more I looked, the more frightened I became, and after a quick pass, the surprise was beyond words.

It is actually a classic book of the Chongxuan series, and the Chongxuan is out of the first chapter of the Tao Te Ching, "Xuanzhi and Xuan, the door of all wonders". It is an important philosophical trend in the history of Chinese thought, and it is also the capital philosophical system in the Sui and Tang dynasties, inheriting the development of metaphysics in the pre-Qin, Wei and Jin dynasties, and the philosophical thinking of the Song and Ming dynasties, and has an important position in the history of Taoism and even in the history of philosophy in the whole China. It is also a very influential trend of thought in the Sui and Tang dynasties of the two Jin Dynasty. Moreover, the person who copied these two books is definitely the core figure of the Chongxuan School, and this person's understanding and interpretation of Chongxuan has reached a new height. I don't know which Taoist still treasures such a book and copied it again; I really want to be this master. ”

The old Taoist priest let out a sigh of relief, and then said:

"Although there is no special explanation of the practice method in this book, but there are many mentions between the words, Taoism originally paid attention to Qimen Dunjia, drawing talismans and chanting mantras, supporting alchemy, astrological divination, feng shui can be proficient in everything, since the Song Dynasty, Taoism has abandoned more and more outer kung fu, and has experienced several wars and dynasty changes in the millennium, and now many classics and mathematics have been lost."

After flipping through the two books in his hand, he said, "I didn't expect that two important classics of the Chongxuan School would reappear in my hands today. This is of great significance for the study of Taoist thought and development before the Song Dynasty, and it is a priceless treasure, if it is not for the fact that they are still very new and not very old, otherwise it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a national treasure! ”

Ye Jinyu shook his head violently in his heart when he heard this, he really wanted to tell the old Taoist priest, don't be like Boss Ma, and finally give a price of 300 yuan; Or don't buy it after boasting about it as a priceless treasure, or simply say it's a national treasure, and it will be troublesome to donate it after rewarding yourself with 500 yuan.

Fortunately, the old Taoist priest still had thoughts about the priceless treasure, and he turned his head to Ye Jinyu and said: "Presumably, this layman is the master of these two books, and the poor Taoist is the honorary abbot of the Eight Immortals Palace of Longevity, Yuxi Daoist; What is the name of a layman? ”

Ye Jinyu hurriedly returned the salute and said, "The surname is Ye, Ye Jinyu." Yuxi Road is polite. For his own God of Wealth, Ye Jinyu is very respectful.

After Lao Dao asked his name, he didn't talk much nonsense, and went straight to the topic: "I heard Li Jushi say that Jushi wants to sell these two books?" ”

Ye Jinyu nodded hurriedly, for fear that the old Taoist priest would not buy it. Or is it a real sale.

The Taoist priest said: "In the eyes of the poor Dao, these two books are naturally priceless, and they cannot be overestimated; However, although the classics are priceless, the net worth of the poor is limited; I am afraid that the price given will not reach the ideal price in Ye Jushi's heart. ”

Seeing that the old Taoist priest was still politely grinding, Wang Zhiqiang, who was waiting for 30,000 yuan impatiently, rushed and said: "You Taoist priest, you just tell me how much it is, if it is suitable, we will sell it, and if it is not suitable, it will be broken up." ”

These words simply went to Ye Jinyu's heart, and once again confirmed that this little brother received it well.

The professor also smiled on the side: "Niubi, you can quickly bargain for the price, I can see that these two people are two laymen." It's best to talk to them about money. ”

Glancing at Wang Zhiqiang, Daoist Yuxi said: "The merit is immeasurable, if these two books really want to be calculated at market prices, it is not surprising that they will sell for several million; But the poor road is not thick in the pocket, one can get 500,000, and two can be 1 million; It just emptied the things outside the body that Poor Dao had accumulated over the years. ”

A million, a lot of small money...... Ye Jinyu didn't know whether she wanted to be happy or excited;

That Wang Zhiqiang grabbed Ye Jinyu's sleeve and said with a face full of disbelief: "Brother, one million!" We can open a big factory. ”

The professor said on the side: "Stingy, stingy, why is Niubi so stingy today." provoked the old Taoist priest to blow his eyebrows and glare at him.

Ye Jinyu listened to the professor's words, and suddenly remembered that he had read Taoist classics on the Internet, those Taoist classics were tens of thousands of sets on the Internet, and this million, wouldn't it be a hundred sets to sell? Although my two books were easy to come by, I changed them a hundred times, which is a bit of a loss; No, we have to ask him to send more things.

"A million is not impossible. But I would like the Taoist to add another set, no, five sets of all the Taoist classics that only appeared after the Tang Dynasty. I can do without the original, just reprint; But it must be in traditional Chinese. ”

Listening to Ye Jinyu's request, the old Taoist priest shouted again: "Immeasurable merit, Ye Jushi transferred two classics for my Taoist at a low price, which is an act of immeasurable merit." He is also dedicated to learning more Taoist classics from the Tao, and the poor Taoist has the reason to disagree, such a trivial matter, the poor Taoist is the master. ”

Tens of thousands of yuan were saved, and the savings were quite earned, Ye Jinyu was happy. The old Taoist priest hadn't seen such a positive young man for a long time, and he felt that the million was worth it, and the book was worth it.

Everyone was overjoyed, but the professor was not happy, and whispered to the old Taoist priest: "Your good deeds have fallen into your pocket, and now it's time to intercede with me; This guy has a book with Taoist runes printed on it, can you let him lend it to me, or make a copy? Even if it's a photocopy, I can pay 30,000 yuan. "It's a small sound, but it's just right for everyone in the store to hear.

The old Taoist priest believed that Ye Jinyu had also heard this, so he didn't say much, but just looked at Ye Jinyu with inquiring eyes.

Ye Jinyu shook his head and said: "This rune is a secret that is not passed on by other people's families, and I promised others not to pass it on." Be a man and keep promises. ”

The old Taoist priest nodded and said very approvingly: "Yes, you must keep your word as a man, this is what a gentleman does; Moreover, the Fa should not be passed on lightly, and it is taboo to privately disclose the cultivation methods of the sect, and you did the right thing. ”

Professor Li was anxious, and said to the Taoist priest angrily: "Hey, Niubi, I kindly gave you the baby, but you came to dismantle my platform, which side are you on?" ”

The old Taoist priest knew Professor Li very well, and he was not angry when he heard the words, and shouted again: "The merit is immeasurable, and the poor Dao stands on the side of justice and truth." After speaking, Professor Li, who was so angry that he was smoking, said to Ye Jinyu: "Ye Jushi, please wait, Poor Dao will let someone transfer money to you, please tell me your account number." ”

For fear that Ye Jinyu would regret it, he paid in minutes and dragged Professor Li, who was still sulking, away.

After sitting in the car and letting the little Taoist drive, Yuxi Dao let go of the professor and said: "Immeasurable merit, Li Jushi, you are angry, poor Dao is saving you; If the true owner of this book knows about it, you don't know how you died. ”

As a professor of history, Professor Li naturally knows some secrets. It was only after listening to the words of the old Taoist priest that he came to his senses, but although he gave up in his heart, he was still stubborn: "Now it is a legal society, besides, there was no such thing as magic and magic in this world three hundred years ago." ”

Yuxi Daoist said: "As a Taoist cultivator, Poor Dao naturally knows that there is no magic power now, but there are some things that I would rather believe in them. As he spoke, he ignored Professor Li and began to slowly peruse the classics copied by the national teacher.
