Chapter 370: An Unanswerable Question
“…… Looking for a book to read, the Internet is full of news from ABC and dog authors, ABC's new book is released, but it is always not released. ”
"It's really annoying."
Not all readers like the excitement on Europa right now,
It's a carnival for dog authors and loyal ABC readers,
They like to read news and posts that praise dog authors and ABC's work, and even deliberately look for them.
As a result, this kind of posts and news have always been very high, and the media naturally keeps posting for the sake of traffic.
Coupled with the efforts of Delvin and Bert at this moment, the entire Internet is flooded with relevant news.
I've seen a lot, although most readers still can't get tired of watching this kind of praise news,
But there are still some readers who have already become rebellious.
For example, Alice from the White Flag Country.
Originally, she had also seen works such as "Imperial Epic" and "Seven Days of Hell",
Even the books she had read several times over and over again, and she loved them.
But as a regular reader of books, she couldn't have read only the works of these two writers.
So far, the new book of those two writers has not been released,
She wanted to find other reading, and the Internet was full of news about those two writers, and the popularity of those two writers overshadowed everything else.
She was starting to get a little bored.
It's not that I annoy those two writers and the works of those two writers,
Purely annoyed by the current situation on the Internet,
Especially when she asks on the Internet if there is anything to read,
I always get answers from "Imperial Epic", "Seven Days of Hell", and you can look forward to "Shadow Empire" and "Shepherd Boy Seeking Immortals".
But doesn't she know any of this?
So much so that she now needs to add restrictions other than these works.
“…… Don't you like the work of those two writers too? I just said that although those two writers are popular, they are not necessarily better than the works of some writers. ”
Hearing Alice's words, Tara, who was sitting across from her, approached her with some excitement and said to her.
Alice looked up and glanced at Tara.
She knew that her friend just didn't like ABC very much, and the works of dog authors.
In other words, she doesn't like the works of any popular authors, but is more keen to pursue the works of some niche or new writers.
Alice had previously recommended ABC's Imperial Epic to Tara, but she said she didn't like it,
Didn't even look at it......
"For example?"
"Like this one!"
Hearing Alice's inquiry, Tara became excited and took a book from the side,
On the cover is the title of the book - "The Ordinary and the Great".
"It's this one, "Ordinary and Great", and that's all the books I've been reading lately. It's a great work, and I think it's even better than that ABC's work anyway. I'm already reading it for the second time! ”
"You haven't seen "Imperial Epic", why do you say that it is better than "Imperial Epic"."
Alice couldn't help but speak, then looked at the book that Tara handed over, and hesitated,
Or take it,
"This is a book by a young writer, or a new writer."
"A rookie writer, I's book, describes a real and depressing world, a story that goes from the ordinary to the great."
"I knew that...... I'll take a look. ”
Anyway, I can't find a book to read right now, so let's take a look.
Alice thought, first her eyes fell on the book,
On the cover of the book, the fragmented picture looks quite interesting.
This probably proves that the publisher spent money on the cover.
Alice also glanced at the name of the publishing house,
The name of a publishing house that I've never heard of.
Sure enough, Tara still likes to look for books in these unknown places.
Raising his head, he looked at Tara again,
As Tara watched expectantly, Alice opened the book.
Starting with the introduction, Alice first read cursoryly,
But the author's subtle and appropriate sentences easily attracted Alice's attention,
It slowed her down in reading.
Immediately after, as the opening story unfolds,
Alice gradually immersed herself in the story.
……
“…… Xi Yuan, help me bring a fish and chips from the cafeteria. I'm going to finish reading it in the dorm. ”
On the other side, Great Britain. In a university dormitory.
As soon as Xi Yuan got up from his position, the roommate over there turned his head and shouted at Xi Yuan,
“…… You've watched it for the second time, and maybe you already know the plot later, so you don't have to be so important when you read it. ”
"No, I've read the great chapter for the second time, I can't wait a little longer to read it, I think there must be many details in the plot that I didn't notice the first time."
"Please! Help me bring me a lunch and come back in a moment and I'll tell you the details of what I saw! ”
The roommate begged Xi Yuan again, but he didn't care about Xi Yuan's answer,
He turned his head again, and his eyes fell on the "Ordinary and Great" in his hand.
Xi Yuan shook his head helplessly, looking at his roommate's focused and fascinated appearance,
I was a little hesitant to bring the book with me and read it again.
After watching it for the second time, it's impossible to get too absorbed and let yourself crash into a lamp pole, right?
In this way, Xi Yuan took the book and went to the cafeteria.
The roommate, on the other hand, stayed in the dormitory, holding a book and continuing to read.
As the plot in the book progresses,
Even though I've read it once, my roommate can't help but feel emotional ups and downs with the plot.
……
In the book,
The plot continues to develop.
After arriving in town, Gerrit went to school, while Hoss went to Mr. Raleigh's house.
Little Gerrit didn't get the answers to his doubtful questions at school,
Nor did Fox get a satisfactory answer at Mr. Raleigh's house.
After the evening comes,
Gerritt meets his father, Hoss, outside the school,
Most of the time, my father would come here and wait for him to go back with him, as he did today.
The town was still a long way from the village, and my father was not very comfortable with him going home alone.
On the way back, Gerrit was silent all the way,
The father put his arm around Gerrit's shoulders and did not speak.
It wasn't until he was almost in the village that Gerrit suddenly raised his head and said to his father,
"Father, I asked the teacher a question today."
"I asked her that the church has laws, but it doesn't tell them to those who are bound by them, to all the people of the Lord."
"Hmm."
Father Hoss nodded in answer and looked at Gerrit.
"The teacher replied to me that this matter was taught in every city school, and that the laws of the church were clearly written in the book."
"I say, but the qualifications in the school cost ten denarii, and five denarii a year, and most of the farmers couldn't afford to pay that price, and they didn't know the words in the books."
Then the teacher fell silent. I just still told me to study hard, and maybe I will be able to figure it out when I have enough knowledge. ”
Gerritt looked at his father, Hoss, and he couldn't accept such an answer,
Father Hoss was silent for a moment, then touched Grett's head.
"Then you should study hard and figure this thing out. It's like any other question you have...... That's why I sent you to study. ”
"But my father...... Today, the school has begun to charge the next year's fee, five silver coins. ”
Gerrit said, silent for a moment, and lowered his head.
He knew that his family could not come up with so much money at this moment.
"I see."
That's just what Hoss said.
And after being silent for a while, Gerrit raised his head and said something else to his father,
Changing the subject, he was afraid that his father would be uncomfortable because of this.
