Chapter Eighty-Five: Mr. Storyteller
"What kind of mess are you putting in it?" Just as Chen Xuan was fantasizing about exchanging countless pieces for treasures, he was kicked in the back, and the conch girl's embarrassed voice sounded.
"That...... is a martial arts action movie. Chen Xuan said.
"Liar. ”
"Really, that's what humans call when they fight. Didn't you hear the woman's name Ki mo ji, that's what it means to kill you? Chen Xuan said.
"Really?" said Conch Girl, incredulous.
"It's true. ”
"I don't care, I want to watch "Langya Bang", you take the computer back, otherwise I won't help you take things out. Conch girl said.
"Okay, wait a minute, you'll be done right away. Chen Xuan said that this film of Yui Hatano was only half an hour, and it was finished soon. Then in the wailing of the crab spirits, Chen Xuan took away the computer, there was no way, he had to take into account the feelings of the conch girl. Next time, buy a few more computers and bring them down.
Chen Xuan left the store under the reluctant gaze of the crab spirits, and looked at the development as he walked, adding a Hatano Yui by 0.02%. Chen Xuan is very happy to have increased the degree of development, but this title makes Chen Xuan a little embarrassed, so he can't be obscure, such as artwork, action movies or something, how can he explain it when others see it?
Think about it, if you bring a lot of films down in the future, then on the development list, isn't there a lot of this kind of thing, it's embarrassing to think about it.
Thinking about it, Chen Xuan found himself at the door of a bookstore, there was an old man at the door, who was telling a story, and a group of various goblin children in front of him were listening with relish. The old man Chen Xuan took a closer look, it was similar to a human being, and he couldn't tell what kind of goblin it was, and those children had octopus spirits, shark spirits, jellyfish spirits, turtle spirits, and so on.
"Grandpa Weaving. The conch girl behind her suddenly screamed.
"Do you know?" Chen Xuan was stunned.
"Yes, his name is Zhibai, he is a weaving snail essence, he is good to me, and I am good friends with his granddaughter Zhihe. Before, Grandpa Bai's bookstore was about to close down because of poor profits, and I don't know what happened now. Conch Girl worried.
"Let's go up and have a look. Chen Xuan said that he was very interested in the bookstore in the East China Sea.
"Don't expose me, if they come into contact with me, it's not good for them. ”
"Okay. Chen Xuan nodded, but he was thinking in his heart, did the conch girl escape to the wilderness because she offended people?
"Welcome. As soon as Chen Xuan arrived at the door of the store, a delicate-looking girl in a white dress walked out, but the old man continued to tell the story.
Chen Xuan entered the store, picked up a book and looked at it, and found that the pages were similar to paper, but it was by no means ordinary paper in the human world, it was completely fine to soak in seawater, the surface was yellow-brown, and it looked very rough, a bit like it was made of seaweed.
Looking at the content of the book again, after reading a few pages, Chen Xuan showed a strange look, and then flipped through many books casually, he came to a conclusion that the literary products of the East China Sea are very scarce, and the poetry collection is basically before the Tang Dynasty of human beings, and it is very incomplete, and some poems that Chen Xuan has not seen are really ordinary. In terms of novels, there are even fewer and poorly written. Other essays, fairy tales, fables, etc., are all ordinary. Compared with the scenes of various literature in the human world, the difference is too far.
Chen Xuan returned to the door, at this time the old man was just finished speaking, the group of little goblins shouted to continue, the old man waved his hand and said that he would talk about it tomorrow, and a delicate-looking girl walked out and said, "Grandpa is tired, I will talk about it tomorrow." The goblins shouted, refusing to leave.
"Hello grandpa. Chen Xuan said.
"Brother Shrimp Soldier, what book do you want to buy?" Zhibai glanced at Chen Xuan.
"I'm not a shrimp soldier, I'm just a vagrant. Chen Xuan smiled and continued, "I don't want to buy books, but I want to discuss with you and cooperate with you to sell books." ”
"Selling books?" Zhibai was stunned, and Zhihe also looked at Chen Xuan suspiciously.
"Yes, I wrote a book that I want to publish. Chen Xuan said.
"Hahaha......" Zhibai smiled, Zhihe also covered his mouth and snickered, there are few shrimp essence bookstores, and I have never heard of shrimp essence writing books, but they just think it is interesting, not ridiculed, Zhibai said, "You have the heart to write books, no matter how you write, it's very good, but my store, I'm afraid it won't be long after it." ”
"Isn't it because it's not good to make a profit?" asked Chen Xuan.
"Isn't it, it's not easy to mix up writing books, there are only a few people who can live by writing books, fewer and fewer people write books, just a few books over and over again all year round, everyone has read them, who still buys books? It's just this group of little guys, and they don't get tired of listening to it many times. Zhibai said, smiling and glancing at the group of goblins squatting on the ground.
"If my book sells well, then I don't have to close the door. Chen Xuan said that the reason why he did this was to spread culture and earn development, secondly, for the sea spirit stone, with the sea spirit stone, it is convenient to buy anything here, and third, to help the pair of grandchildren, after all, they are friends of the conch girl, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
"Hehe, you're quite confident. "Oribai is interested.
"Do you know how hard it is to write a book, my grandfather's books don't sell well. Zhihe glanced at Chen Xuan, she didn't believe that this little shrimp spirit could write any good books.
"It's not a great book I've written, but it's quite interesting, and it's more of a children's book, so I'll talk to the goblins right now to see if they're interested. Chen Xuan said.
"Okay, you can try. Zhibai smiled.
"There is no paper and pen. Chen Xuan asked.
Zhibai glanced at Zhihe, and Zhihe went to get a pen and a stack of paper, the pen was black, similar to a pencil refill, and could slide directly on the paper.
Under the curious gaze of Zhibai and Zhihe, Chen Xuan simply painted a few paintings on it, the first one was an old man getting a seed in a cave, the second one was an old man planting a seed and growing rattan and producing seven colorful gourds, and the third old man was caught by a snake spirit......
The drawing is very simple and casual, and you can barely see an outline. Then, Chen Xuan began to tell the story in style: "Once upon a time, there was an old weaving snail spirit who relied on collecting medicine for a living, and one day he was collecting medicine in the deep sea trench, and suddenly the mountains shook ......."
That's right, Chen Xuan is talking about "Hulu Brothers", also known as "Hulu Baby", a classic of Chinese animation, which is widely loved by children and teenagers. Of course, in order to cater to this group of East China Sea goblins, Chen Xuan made changes, the human grandfather was replaced by a weaving snail essence, the pangolin was replaced by a crab essence, and the snake spirit was replaced by a sea snake essence, and the others were basically unchanged.
At first, Zhibai and Zhihe thought that Chen Xuan was playing, but when they heard that the old man of the weaving snail spirit was arrested, and the powerful baby was born, when they went to rescue the old man, they were fascinated. The little goblins listened to it with relish.
