Feng Longde has always been interested in all kinds of medieval historical materials and historical analysis books, but the relevant books in China are either nonsense or too little information, or there are too few excellent books imported from abroad, which causes him to spend a lot of time in libraries and various bookstores to search for books. If it weren't for the fact that the shipping cost of buying things on Amazon to China was not worth it, Feng Longde would have ordered a lot of them a lot.
What's more, as a die-hard middle two war maniac, Feng Longde is very interested in the various famous sayings and aphorisms at the bottom of the screen every time the game loads, and every sentence on it comes from historical classics such as "Prussian Chronicle", "Novgorod Chronicle", "Livonian Chronicle" and so on. Unfortunately, these books are rarely available on the market, and Feng Longde collected them for a long time and only a few scattered sentences.
It was a book rush like a big luck, but Feng Longde was stunned and found a copy of "The History of the Teutonic Invasion" in the Suzuna Nunnery in the Gensokyo world, and the most inconsistent with the setting is that this book was compiled and written by Barnyard Aqiu, Feng Longde can only sigh: Are the historians of Gensokyo all monsters?
"How much does this book sell?" Feng Longde put the book down and began to prepare to pay for it.
"Five thousand P coins. Xiao Ling replied without blinking.
Feng Longde sat directly on the ground, and the steel ring of the chain mail made intimate contact with the wooden floor.
"Are you kidding me? This is equivalent to a kilogram of silver!!" Feng Longde got up with his hands on his hands, "Are you poor and crazy?!, or are you very familiar with that witch in Boli?"
"Of course, because of poverty. Xiao Ling spread her hands innocently, "Usually, except for Huiyin and Ah Qiu will buy some books or spend money to print some classics in batches, people in the village rarely come to buy books, even if there are some alien humans who basically come to buy maps, but that's too small to see that although you are dressed as a martial artist, it is obvious that you are also a person who likes to read, so you should not be stingy with this little money, right?" I heard from the people in the village that the last time you came to the village, you bought fifteen horses in one go, it seems that you were not as exaggerated as you are now, right?"
Feng Longde was directly speechless: Regardless of whether it is the first or second set, the Boli Shrine is basically a dilapidated house on the verge of collapse, and it is understandable that Reimu can love Qian Cheng like that;
In the final analysis, Feng Longde still doesn't know enough about the current situation of Gensokyo - as a person who needs to use the feudal era as the background, so that the monsters are "feared" and the gods are "worshipped" The supernatural shelter in demand, the education aspect must be strictly monitored: otherwise, one day, human beings will learn the scientific worldview, and even atheism is not only a problem of oriental chefs flipping the table, at least more than half of the demons and monsters in Gensokyo will disappear, and only supernatural creatures like Yakumo Purple who basically do not need to be feared and worshipped can survive.
"I really wanted to buy this book, but to be honest, it was too expensive. Feng Longde scratched his head, and then took out a large pile of villain books from the space ring under the cover of the counter, "Can you see if these books can be exchanged for it?"
Originally, in the preparation before entering the spatial rift, Feng Longde stuffed a lot of things into his two spatial rings: various books and comics, mobile phones, All kinds of snacks and drinks, including his laptop, for which he bought a special universal mobile power bank that can be charged by solar energy before leaving, so as to solve the boredom that may occur after running to the inner world;
"Oh?" Xiao Ling took the villain book in Feng Longde's hand - that's right, it is the kind of villain book that appeared in the Chinese continent for a period of time in the last world, such as some revolutionary stories, the simplified version of the four famous books, and some well-known storytelling stories abound, "Well, it's quite interesting outside books, but the combined value of these is not enough to exchange for this Western history classic, do you still have books that can be exchanged?"
"I'll look for it again" Feng Longde shrugged his shoulders and rummaged through the spatial ring again.
It's not a pity to exchange those villain books, although some years of villain books will have special collectors who will spend money to buy them, but it is obvious that you can't buy back an extremely rare medieval classic. In the end, Feng Longde flipped through for a long time and took out a lot of books: some children's books he read when he was a child, some composition guidance books for Chicken Soup for the Soul, Selected Grimm's Fairy Tales, Selected Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen and a complete collection of idioms, and even Feng Longde was afraid that this would not be enough, so he took out a complete set of "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation".
This is definitely an unprecedented feat: Dahuaxia's tutoring materials fell into the hands of Xiaoling, the owner of Suzunaan, if Bai Zehuiyin bought the textbooks and took them back as a temple house, then the children in the world would be lustful to death In a sense, this is simply destroying the IQ of the new generation of human beings.
"Are these" Xiaoling put on her glasses and lit an extra oil lamp, and began to read carefully, "You find a place to sit down first, I need to read these books first." β
Feng Longde nodded, but he couldn't find a suitable chair after looking for a long time: they didn't seem to be able to bear the weight of themselves and their weapons and equipment, so they could only sit cross-legged on a ground that looked the least dusty, and then Feng Longde took out his mobile phone from the space ring, plugged in the headphones and turned them on and started watching videos.
The fluorescent light of the mobile phone and the candlelight of the oil lamp reflect each other, presenting an indescribable sense of weirdness - a medieval knight playing with a mobile phone sits on the ground, and behind the counter sits a kimono double ponytail Lori watching "Five-Year College Entrance Examination Three-Year Simulation".
Time passed for a long time, and when Feng Longde felt that the fried meat steak he ate in the tavern was about to be digested, Xiaoling finally stood up: "I have accepted all these books, the historical classics belong to you, anyway, I can't understand them without Ah Qiu's help, she has recently translated some historical classics into Japanese versions, and Western characters are too difficult for me."
Feng Longde was a little curious: "These books are all in Huaxia, can you understand them?"
"Of course I can understand," Xiao Ling glanced at Feng Longde suspiciously, "The Chinese characters in Japanese are all in Huaxia, and besides, I have also studied Huaxia, so it should be you who can be seamlessly connected, right? You are obviously a Westerner, how can you know Oriental characters? Judging from the expression on your face when you took out the books before, it is obvious that you can read them fluently, and there seems to be nothing you can't understand when you read Japanese classics." β
Feng Longde: "I like to read books and I like history, so I have to learn a lot of languages. β
"Takefu's dress, but he has the hobby of a scholar? Xiao Ling struggled to put the newly acquired books into categories on the shelves, "The content of these books can let me read and deliberate for a long time, but what are those "Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation"? The knowledge in it is too profound, is it the latest knowledge encyclopedia in the outside world?"
Xiao Ling's naΓ―ve question made Feng Longde sweat coldly: "It's the educational materials of the outside world, you must not hand this thing over to the temple house!!, I don't want to be the culprit who harms the intelligence and thinking of the new generation of human beings."
Throwing the "History of the Teutonic Invasion" into the space ring with ease, Feng Longde, who was wearing a helmet, turned around and wanted to push the door and leave, Xiao Ling's voice sounded behind him: "You don't seem to have bought what you wanted, I feel like you just bought something that you were unexpectedly interested in, but you really wanted to buy but didn't see it, right?"
"Girl, are you sure you're a human and not a mind-reading monster?" Feng Longde pushed open the door without looking back, "But you're rightβI really didn't find the book I was looking for, but the book more or less made up for some of my regrets." β
Xiao Ling smiled wordlessly: "Don't you want to go to the barnyard field family to try it?" Their family's history collection is the richest, after all, the family that was once a historian and could write "The Origin of Gensoky Village" is indispensable for all kinds of secret historical materials. β
"Thanks for the reminder. Feng Longde responded and was about to get on the horse, but Xiao Ling pulled the burqa, "What are you doing?"
"You can't enter the Barnyard Mansion, and the guards of the Barnyard Family will refuse to wait for idle people. Saying that, Xiao Ling looked at the iris shield on Feng Longde's back and the knight's long sword and prismatic hammer hanging side by side on the armed belt with a strange look: "Unless you plan to fight all the way in, but I dare to pack the ticket, Huiyin will arrive later and beat you out at a faster speed." β
Feng Longde: "What should I do?"
You must not attack humans in the human world - not to mention that Feng Longde is also a non-human race, and if you really want to write, you can't come to martial arts, and it is estimated that you will either be beaten into by Huiyin or beaten into Xiang by Lingmeng
"I'll go with you," Xiao Ling pointed to herself, "I'm friends with Ah Qiu, and I'm also familiar with the people of the Barnyard Tian family, so you can easily enter with my introduction." β
"Why help me?" Feng Longde was a little puzzled.
"Ah Qiu has been busy writing that book of Gensokyo Origins, and she hasn't seen me for a long time, and this time I'm going to meet her myself, and you happen to have a handy and fast horse. After saying that, Xiao Ling planned to get on the horse, but she didn't climb on the horse's back for half a day with her hands and feet in place, "Hey, big man, do me a favor!"
Feng Longde's face twitched and then he began to reach out to help: "It's too difficult for you to want to ride a war horse that is more than half a meter tall than your whole body if you want to ride a bare-shouldered war horse that is half a meter taller than your whole body."
β
Riding his horse on the street, following Xiao Ling's guidance, Feng Longde soon came to the door of a Japanese-style mansion. This Japanese-style mansion is very large, and the entrance to the gate is flanked by guards wearing hats and holding spears, which do not look like good stubble.
However, Feng Longde didn't bother to pay attention to this: if he really wants to fight, let alone call for support from the knights of the guard in the soul connection, he can beat all these regular person-type opponents by himself
"Stop!" the guards saw a rider in black armor walking towards him, and hurriedly raised his spear horizontally, "Who's coming?"
"It's me. Feng Longde asked the war horse to stop, and Xiao Ling's little head came out from behind him, "I'm the Honju Xiaoling of Lingnaan, come to see Ah Qiu." β
"Xiao Ling-chan. The guard breathed a sigh of relief, then pointed at Feng Longde, "Then who is?"
"A customer who bought a book, he had some rare historical materials on hand, and he himself needed some historical classics that were only available to Aqiu, so I brought him here. After Xiao Ling finished speaking, she began to knock on Feng Longde's back, "Big man, help me quickly and put me down." β
"Good. Feng Longde turned around and stuck the spear on the ground, supported Xiao Ling's armpits with both hands and gently put it on the ground from the horse's back, and then stretched out his legs and got off the horse's back, "Thank you for leading the way." β
"Big man, can you do it next time, the armor on your arm hurts me!"
"It's light enough! Also, my name is Feng Longde! Not a big man!" Feng Longde replied to Xiao Ling a few words while ordering the immortal war horse to stand still in his soul, "Next time, I should find someone to prepare a ladder for you to climb the horse, so that I don't have to pick you up and down like your father." β
"Hmph" Xiaoling puffed out her face and stopped talking, and turned her head directly after stomping her feet.
Feng Longde ignored her, and at this time a guard asked: "This gentleman, your horse can be led to our special stables here, it doesn't have to be parked here, we can"
"Ah, no, this horse is pretty honest. Feng Longde shook his head, "And it doesn't need to be fed and drink, anyway, it doesn't have this need and doesn't have to worry about it excreting, this function has long been gone." By the way, don't go near it! it will stumble and bite anyone but me!"
Guard: "Uh, okay, are your horses a beast?"
"Pretty much. Feng Longde nodded, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
In the camp, the undead war horse and the living war horse have their own stables, and the undead war horse occasionally has the desire to attack strangers even under the command of a stronger soul, so Feng Longde can only park it outside the gate, so that this undead war horse can attack other people who are close when he is away. He didn't worry so much when he went to the tavern and Suzuna-an before, because the place was small, and Feng Longde's soul perception could clearly stare at the situation of the immortal war horse all the time, but now that he had to enter the deep mansion compound, he should be careful in everything.
"Alright, you two, go this way. One of the guards pushed open the gate and began to lead the way.
Feng Longde nodded and followed, while Xiao Ling also followed with a puffed face.
