Xia Feng's hand suddenly stopped in the air, and a special feeling appeared on his body, which disappeared after a short period of existence, and when he turned around, he saw an old man with white hair looking at him anxiously, and the young man also stared at him with a look of resentment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Old man, I'm really sorry, I've never seen this plant before, I'm just curious, but fortunately I haven't encountered it yet. ”

Xia Feng opened the Qi Hope Technique with some doubts and looked at the old man, the old man did not have a trace of internal force on his body, he used his divine sense to sweep towards the old man, and his divine sense seemed to sweep over the old man's body without any obstacles, this is a little different from the feeling of sweeping ordinary people with his divine sense, is this person weird?

"That's good, that's good, are you going to buy an ancient book?" the old man breathed a sigh of relief, and did not mean to blame, and did not show any abnormality.

"I just want to buy a set of the four famous books in thread. ”

"Young man, come in then, Xiaohui, go back to the front and help your mother!" the old man turned and walked towards the room.

Xia Feng hurriedly followed, squeezing his eyes at the young man.

The room is full of antique furniture and bookshelves, the bookshelves are full of books, Xia Feng glanced at the books on the shelves, it seems that there are no books bound in line, but this room is a suite, and there should be a collection of books in the room. Using his divine sense and vision, he swept into the inner room, and there were indeed a lot of books inside.

Xia Feng sat opposite the old man, this old man was not too old, his face was not very good, his appearance was a little similar to the old man in the bookstore, it should be the old man in the bookstore who recommended him to his relative's house.

"Young man, do you want the four famous books of that era?"

"Fifty or sixty years ago, the thread-bound book will do," Xia Feng felt a little ominous in his heart, it would be good to change his appearance before coming, today is really careless.

The old man stood up and walked into the inner room, Xia Feng's consciousness swept into the inner room with the old man, and the old man took out a stack of books from the innermost bookshelf and walked out, and put them on the coffee table.

"Gloves and masks are twenty yuan, and each book can only be read for three pages!" said the old man with a smile, taking out a mask and gloves casually.

Xia Feng looked at the masks and gloves worth one yuan, this old man wouldn't be specifically earning money for masks and gloves, right? He took out twenty yuan from his pocket and put it in front of the old man.

Pick up the first set of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the following is still the Romance of the Three Kingdoms? The first set is a simplified version, which is obviously not what he wants to see. Although the second set is a traditional version, there are illustrations on it, which is obviously not. The third and fourth sets of fonts and paragraphs are incorrect. Only the last set of the somewhat worn and worn Romance of the Three Kingdoms remains.

Xia Feng was a little disappointed in his heart, the handwriting on the cover of this book was obviously different from that on his own book. Turning the first page, his heart trembled, and the number of words, paragraphs, and layout in his book were exactly the same, but the style of the pen was different. Was it so easy to find?

Raising his eyes to look at the old man, the old man kept smiling and looking at Xia Feng, turning the second page, Xia Feng was a little stunned! One of the sentences, 'sacrifice heaven and earth, re-slaughter cattle and set up wine, gather warriors in the township, get more than 300 people,' in 'get more than 300 people', clearly remember that in his Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was 'more than 800 people'.

I carefully compared the content in my mind many times, and only this one is different on the second page, three becomes eight! Is this a clerical error?

Turning to the third page, 'Cao Jie peeped at the back, announced that he was left and right, and then he was condemned for his other deeds and released into the field.' The 'Yong' in this sentence is not the same as the 'Yi' in my mind.

One 'eight' and one 'easy', the two words together are 'eight easy'! Could it be that the secret was easily discovered in this way? It's not that simple, is it?

Xia Feng pondered while holding the book.

"How's it going, young man?" asked the old man calmly.

Xia Feng suddenly reacted from his contemplation, his performance just now was too gaffe, and he gently put down the book.

"Old man, how much does this book cost?" Xia Feng pointed to the first of the five books in this set, Zao Wou-Ki only left the first one, where did the remaining four go?

"A million books!"

"Ahem!" Xia Feng coughed violently when he heard it, what kind of joke is the old man doing? A broken book costs one million! In fact, he just looked at it, and he didn't need to buy it. Do you want to tell the old man that he just needs to look through it? Isn't it obvious that something is hidden inside?

"Old man, you're scaring me! I just want to give the elders a gift of some value," Xia Feng had a self-deprecating expression.

The old man just smiled as if he could see through Xia Feng's thoughts.

"Old man, there are three other books, take them out and take a look, if there are any good books, I'll go back and suggest them to the elders, and then talk about the price, okay?" Xia Feng knew that it would definitely not be easy to deal with such an old man.

"Young man, let's finish talking about this book business first, and then talk about the next book!" the old man still looked at Xia Feng with a smile.

Even if it is a thousand yuan, Xia Feng will not buy it, he only needs to read it once.

"Old man, I don't know how many second-hand bookstores there are, I'll go to other second-hand bookstores to take a look," Xia Feng stood up and took off his gloves after speaking.

"Young man, you sit down first, I'll take out another set of books, and we'll talk after you've read it, okay?"

Xia Feng nodded in agreement, thinking in his heart, it's good to take a look again, if not, go to another place to have a look.

The old man took out a large stack of thread-packed books, it was a dream of red mansions!

Xia Feng looked at them one by one, and stopped when he saw the last set, did this old man know what was on his mind and put all the books he needed at the end?

The content of the first page is exactly the same, and the content of the second page is exactly the same!"The "rich" in "Virtuous and virtuous in temperament, and the good manners, although the family is not very rich" is different from the "first" in the mind. In the third page, the "ancestor" in "is also a family of poets and scholars, because he was born in the last days, and the foundation of his parents and ancestors has been exhausted" is different from the "block" in his mind.

What does it mean that on pages 2 and 3 of this book, 'Fuzu' becomes 'first block'?

"Young man, shall we talk now?" said the old man, still smiling.

"Okay, old man, how much do you say is the lowest price of this book?" Xia Feng scolded in his heart, what does it mean that Zao Wou-Ki only left the first of the four famous books, this old man's Dream of Red Mansions is also a set of five books, could it be that the ancestors of the Zhao family divided the secret into five parts and left them to Zao Wou-ki's five brothers?

"A million copies!" the old man still smiled.

Xia Feng smiled, "Old man, in this way, how about I go back and tell the elders about this matter, and then come to visit you?"

After Xia Feng finished speaking, he took off his gloves and mask and walked outside.

"Young man, fifteen years ago, someone came to me, and the same thing you need, who is your elder, right?" The old man's voice came from behind Xia Feng.

Xia Feng was shocked in his heart, and turned to face the old man, "What happened?"

"Young man, sit down and talk slowly!" the old man beckoned Xia Feng to come and sit down.

"What happened?"

"Haha! You're Zao Wou-Ki's grandson, right?"

"Old man, how did you recognize it?" Xia Feng calmed down his excitement, it turned out that Zao Wou-Ki had been here fifteen years ago, seeing that the old man was similar in age to Zao Wou-ki, could they be good friends?

"Zao Wou-Ki went to all the old bookstores in the Eastern Capital in order to find these four sets of books, and now these four sets of books are all in my hands, let's talk about it, what are the secrets in these books?" The old man's tone suddenly became domineering.

Xia Feng sneered in his heart, what do you want to do as an ordinary person?

"Old man, I don't know what secrets are inside, can you tell me about Zao Wou-ki?"

"Haha! Zao Wou-Ki read my book back then, saying that he would give me great creation, but he went overseas and never came back, why did Zao Wou-Ki come back?"

"There hasn't been any news for fifteen years. ”

"Didn't Zao Wou-Ki leave anything to your father?"

"My father died suddenly at work last year, leaving me nothing," Xia Feng wanted to see what the old man wanted to do.

"Young man, it seems that you don't want to tell the truth!" Saying that, the old man suddenly stretched out a hand to Xia Feng's wrist, the old man's speed was extremely fast, close to half of Xia Feng's speed, it was rare for such an old man to have such a speed, it seemed that the old man was a martial arts master.

Xia Feng's left hand flashed slightly, and the old man's fingers caught the air the moment he touched Xia Feng's wrist!

"Hey, you've also practiced kung fu?" the old man looked at Xia Feng suspiciously, and withdrew his hand.

Xia Feng thought to himself, since the old man had already made a move on him, no wonder he was ruthless, but it was better to salute first and then soldier.

"Hehe, old man, do you want to make a move on me?"

Seeing the thin, quiet young man in front of him, the old man was a little surprised, could he take him down and force him to ask something?

"Young man, you tell me the secret in the book, and I will read the book to you, this is what your grandfather Zao Wou-Ki owes me!"

"Old man, do you think this is good? You take out four sets of books, and I'll see what secrets are in them, and my father has left me some clues. ”

"Haha, good, that's good!" the old man sneered and got up and walked into the back room.

Xia Feng carefully observed the old man's every move through the wooden partition wall, the old man took out a small bottle from a cabinet in the corner of the inner room, poured out something and put it in his mouth, then took out a small bottle, came to the back bookshelf, took down two stacks of books, and sprinkled something on the last few books. Then he picked up two stacks of books and walked out with difficulty and put them on the coffee table.

Xia Feng didn't touch the two stacks of books that he had just moved out, and secretly turned the protective layer on the surface of his body into a state of only being unable to enter or exit, and gently sniffed the smell in the air, and there was a faint smell of grass and trees under the two stacks of books. He tried to wrap the two stacks of books with his divine sense, and the faint taste slowly disappeared, this method worked!

Bring a mask and gloves, pick up the first book in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and quickly flip through it.
