Chapter 129: Death at Dusk (3)
The autumn rain is coming. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qin Xiaohe squatted down and picked up a few large maple leaves, handed a few to Lu Qiming, and then put the rest together and covered the top of his head to keep out the rain. She laughed, "That's fine!"
The two of them ran down the hill with the help of the maple leaves, all the way to the eaves. Lu Qiming thought back and felt a little funny. Most of the people around him have passed the Great Sunday, and it is easy to get rid of the rain, and they are calm and relaxed in their movements, and they are not at all happy when they see the young people running on the road, and they all smile widely. Visible atmosphere.
The atmosphere outside is lively, and the inside of the library is peaceful and quiet. There are even young people who sit facing each other and use pen and paper when communicating with each other, lest the sound of discussion disturb others.
Qin Xiaohe didn't boast, she was indeed very familiar with this place. She took Lu Qiming to turn left and right around the crowd, and finally arrived at a separate compartment.
Lu Qiming smiled and asked, "Your territory?"
Qin Xiaohe actually said "yes" and said with a smile: "I usually help the gentleman in the library to take a hand, and later they rowed an old storage room for me." After a brief tidying up, it's already very useful. ”
The room is not very large, but there are a lot of books. The four walls are filled with bookcases, from the corners to the roof, each level of lattice is as tall as a book, and from a distance it is extremely fine, and the total number of books is too great to count.
Lu Qiming was surprised and said, "If you bring in so many books alone, your husband will also allow it?"
"Naturally, I don't allow it," Qin Xiaohe smiled with a cunning smile and said, "So I copied it." ”
Lu Qiming was stunned.
She paused and said softly, "In addition to this one, there are three. ”
She was only fifteen or sixteen years old when she was alive, and it took at least dozens or hundreds of years of sobriety to copy such a large number of books.
Lu Qiming was silent for a moment and asked her, "Have you always been like this?"
The light shines through the window lattice, and the wood becomes more gentle and quiet. Qin Xiaohe raised his hand and stroked the bookshelf, shook his head, and said, "It wasn't ...... at first For the sake of space stability, everyone has to sleep. I was only a little Zhou Tian at that time, so I would never have been picked by the sect. But then, somehow, maybe it's because I always liked to stay in the library the most. When I read all the books for the third time, I suddenly woke up and remembered the past. ”
Lu Qiming sighed and said, "Then you should know why I am here." ”
Qin Xiaohe smiled and said, "What does it matter? Senior Brother Lu, I just want to ask you, do you want to read these books?"
Lu Qiming looked at her for a moment, didn't say anything, took out a book and opened it. The handwriting inside is delicate, but the time is clearly not short.
It didn't take long for Lu Qiming to turn his attention to the content itself. After all, it is a basic book, and the content is not profound, and most of it can even be said to be simple. However, simplicity due to limited knowledge and experience is not the same concept as simplicity after simplifying the complex. The book Lu Qiming is reading at the moment undoubtedly belongs to the latter. If the books recorded by Qin Xiaohe's hands were of such a level, then they were enough to become a solid foundation for the founding of the sect.
It's just that Lu Qiming couldn't help but wonder why Qin Xiaohe did such a thing, and why he took the initiative to lead him to see it. Thinking like this, he asked directly.
Qin Xiaohe replied quietly: "These books I have selected to transcribe are not only the foundation of our Qinmen practice, but also the most righteous and heroic knowledge. I don't want anything else now, I just understand the feelings of my ancestors and gentlemen, and I hope that I can do more so that the inheritance will not be completely severed. ”
Lu Qiming looked at her and asked gently, "You should have told me more than just these words, right?"
"Yes. Qin Xiaohe's lips pursed, and after a moment, he said calmly: "I know that everyone who can come here is an outstanding person in the Divine Domain. As long as they read more, memorize more, as long as they ...... In case they go out, there is a chance that more people will know. We should not cut off this learning. ”
"Senior Brother Lu, do you know why I have to copy it myself? Because many of the books that used to exist in the Book Pavilion are now gone......
The girl's eyes were slightly red, and she said gloomily: "It's been too long, too long, and a lot of knowledge has been forgotten by the clansmen. But all this originally existed because of memory, and everyone forgot it, that is, it was really gone...... But I can't help it, people who fall asleep don't want to listen to me...... I had to copy it over and over again. Those books that have disappeared, I will have to write them again after a while, and if I forget them, then the hard work of my ancestors will be completely in vain!"
Lu Qiming listened silently, put one back, and picked up the next one.
"I just think ......"
Qin Xiaohe couldn't help sobbing, and whispered in a suppressed voice: "It's a pity, it's really a pity." The more I read these books, the more I understand how difficult it is for gentlemen. The gentlemen exhausted their hard work, and their men came, and all the fires were burned...... Why burn it, even if it's to sell it, even if they go to see it themselves...... But why burn it......"
She cried, "The books outside are ruined, and I must protect this place." But when I died, my cultivation was so low, I can't remember all these books...... What if I forget, then?"
Confused, aggrieved, and unable to suppress tears when sad, this is still the heart of a sixteen-year-old girl. Qin Xiaohe can't grow up anymore, but this may also be some reason why she can persevere.
It's just that Lu Qiming knows that things are not as simple as she thought. For some people in the Divine Domain, the real threat to the Qin Sect was not the strength of the cultivators, but their thoughts. Even if he could do it, if he spread it rashly, it would only affect more innocent people.
However, no matter what, Qin Xiaohe's original intention, as well as the concept of the ancestors of the Qin Sect, are worthy of respect after all.
Lu Qiming covered the entire library with his spiritual power, silently recording the content of the books. Even if Qin Xiaohe didn't appear, he would still want to get the inheritance of the Qin Gate. It's just that in this way, the meaning is different after all, and it can be regarded as inheriting her love in the end.
Lu Qiming didn't promise too much, only nodded and said, "The matter of Qinmen, I will think about it carefully." ”
Qin Xiaohe nodded and smiled reluctantly.
It's not so much that she trusts Lu Qiming, but that she is too lonely and difficult to bear it, so she can't help but confide in someone she has met for the first time. For a long time, there was no other sober person around her to talk to, and everything she did was not understood by others, she was really lonely.
In fact, she didn't have much hope for Lu Qiming, and she didn't know how much weight his simple sentence of "think about it" was, she was just sad and ignorant, and then she cheered up ignorantly.
Seeing that she had gradually gathered her emotions, Lu Qiming occasionally chatted with her while flipping through the book.
......
What do you usually do?
Reading, writing...... Save up for some nice clothes, or go out for a walk.
Don't have a teacher?
It's not enough to get to the point where you need to formally apprentice...... But not now.
Well......
Senior Brother Lu, what has become of the outside world now?
I don't know very well.
What about the Spirit Alliance, have they collected a lot of elders' books and released them to everyone?
I've heard of this, and it seems to be sealed.
Just know ...... Alas, those hateful and selfish fellows.
......
If you've been living here, won't it feel like the past is unreal?
Qin Xiaohe didn't know what Lu Qiming was thinking of asking this question, but she looked up at his face and found that it was a calm and gentle, but inexplicably lonely look. Maybe it had something to do with his own experience, she thought.
Lu Qiming asked seriously, and Qin Xiaohe replied seriously. She tilted her head and thought for a long time, and finally sighed, "No." As the years went on, I just felt more and more, like ......"
"It's like myself," she said, hesitantly adding, "I've never lived at all." ”
Lu Qiming was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked this question with some regret.
He put down the book in his hand and said, "I don't know where Qin Yu is now." "It's more like talking to yourself.
Qin Xiaohe heard it and asked, "What is Senior Brother Lu doing with Elder Qin Yu?"
Lu Qiming glanced at her and said truthfully: "Seeking revenge." ”
Qin Xiaohe let out an "ah" and said for a while: "Senior Brother Lu, you can't beat Elder Qin Yu." Otherwise, it's still ......," she couldn't say.
Lu Qiming said: "She is too angry, she acts ruthlessly and has no bottom line, and she is not like your Qin family at all." ”
Qin Xiaohe's expression darkened, but he didn't refute it, obviously he also knew. She said dryly, "However, she can't help it." ”
Lu Qiming did not speak.
Qin Xiaohe continued, "Elder Qin Yu...... Actually, she's amazing. After such a long time, many people can't survive anymore. Just like Senior Brother Yunsheng who we saw playing chess before, he also woke up and taught me a lot of things. But suddenly one day when I went to look for him again, he was like he had never seen me and didn't know me, and I knew that Senior Brother Yunsheng had fallen asleep again of his own ...... Many of us here are like this, and if we persist in persevering, we will not be able to persevere. But Elder Qin Yu has always been at the forefront. We all admired her. ”
Lu Qiming shook his head and only said, "Mistakes are always wrong." ”
Qin Xiaohe snorted, "But what if you don't do this, Elder Qin Yu doesn't insist, and the hearts of the people in the soul domain will be scattered......
Lu Qiming said: "Miss Qin, compared to what you can see without me saying it, the soul domain itself is a mistake. ”
Qin Xiaohe finally fell silent. That's right, she knows what the answer is. But is it necessary for her to say that all these thousands of years of perseverance have been in vain? Moreover, even if she is willing to admit it, what use can it be?
Look at the home everywhere and the same paradise as the peach blossom spring, but what is buried in the core is only bottomless despair. Qin Xiaohe pressed his heart and said in a low voice: "I can feel it, everyone is in pain...... Even those who are asleep, they are. ”
Lu Qiming shook his head secretly. Maybe there were other things that prompted them to establish the Soul Domain back then, but it was too unwise to look at it now. It seems that all the power is gathered, but in fact, it is just trapping countless talented people in a cage and draining their will...... Could this be the real reason why some people let Qinmen take root in the East China Sea?
All sorts of thoughts passed through his mind, and then gradually fell silent. No matter what happened before, just say that in the future, the soul domain will eventually cease to exist.
It's just that there is no need to say these words to Qin Xiaohe.
The next moment, four familiar breaths suddenly stepped into Lu Qiming's perception......
......
