Chapter 332: Elder Ling has come to borrow a book
"You?" the old man was stunned when he heard this, "dare to ask Xiaoyou?"
"Oh, my name is Yunyi, and I'm currently working as a librarian, taking care of some borrowing procedures. Yunyi smiled, "What do you call the teacher?"
"The old man's surname is Ling, in the school, the title of teacher is exempt, if you can afford the old man, you can call the old man Ling. The old man smiled and nodded, and then as if he suddenly thought of something, he couldn't help patting his head and said, "I once heard Old Man Zhan say that he seems to have handed over the library of a history department to a student to take care of, could it be that this student is not you?"
Yun Yi bowed slightly: "The student is not talented, I can't say whether to hand over or not, but Zhan Lao once did assign me to tidy up and clean the library of the history department." ”
When Ling Lao heard this, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, but at his age, it was impossible for any thoughts to appear on his face. He let out a long sigh and then spoke, "Little friend, I want to borrow a book, I hope you can get it." ”
Yun Yi was stunned, and then he found that there were no other people here, and there was plenty of time, so he nodded: "Okay, I don't know what book Elder Ling wants to borrow, you can tell me, I really want to index it." ”
Ling Lao smiled slightly: "The book I want to borrow is in the library of the history department, so it shouldn't be difficult to index." Oh, that's a historical document, called "The Epic of the Stars", I don't know if it's convenient?"
What? Ling Lao's attitude really made Yun Yi startled, what does it mean to be convenient or inconvenient? Borrowing books is borrowing books, how can he still talk to himself in such a consultative tone. It's like the history department's own library?
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......" Yun Yi hurriedly said, he had an impression of the book called "Star Epic". When I sorted it out before, I found that it seemed to be on the bookshelf that recorded the history of the Cross Star Guild. "Elder Ling, wait a minute, let me index first. When I was sorting through the library, I found that many of the books were damaged, and I didn't know if the book was gone. ”
The so-called index is a kind of scoped search, a bit like reading the table of contents of a book while reading, you can narrow down the scope of the search, and finally locate one or more of the books. This is somewhat similar to the mechanism of publishing and retrieving tasks in the task hall. As for the catalogue of some books in the collection of the Department of History, as long as there are them, they are all recorded. Even some fragments are included.
Ling Lao listened to Yun Yi's words, and a trace of anxiety still rose between his eyebrows.
Soon Yun Yi determined the location of the "Star Epic": "Elder Ling, I have finished indexing. "Epic of the Stars" does have it, but ......"
Not to mention that "The Epic of the Stars" is available, it is some other unique books, and there are also them in the library of the Department of History. There is no other reason - the history department's library was opened not long ago, and Ling Lao was the first person to borrow the ancient books and case files in the history department's library. But when Ling Lao saw Yun Yi's slightly frowning brow, he couldn't help but mention a big stone in his heart: "But what?"
Yun Yi said with some embarrassment: "...... But it's incomplete. Only a few fragments of that book remain, many of which were damaged by the time I sorted them out. Ling Lao. Do you still want to borrow books?"
Yun Yi didn't care about Ling Lao that much, but he was very moved by what Zhan Lao agreed with him: his commission was drawn from the handling fee of the borrowing procedures handled by him. And Yunyi also once took a small peek at the cost of borrowing books, most of the books in the library have a lot of borrowing fees, and the history department has books in the library. Because it has just been sorted out, it has not yet been fully marked with the borrowing fee. However, Yun Yi estimated in his heart that it would not be low, after all, the borrowing fee was directly proportional to the intrinsic value of the case file. The books in the history department's library are not to mention that they are all unique books. The heavy vicissitudes of history alone have a lot of value.
To Yunyi's surprise, Ling Lao was not disappointed when he heard the news. On the contrary, he breathed a long sigh of relief with some relief, and the look of gasping for a long time seemed to bring a hint of happiness: "It's okay...... It's good that there is. Little friend, how broken is the case file?"
Yun Yi immediately replied, "The broken part is less than the readable part." This one...... Elder Ling, do you still want to borrow books?"
"Borrow, of course, borrow! You go and get it now, hurry up, don't let the people who came out halfway out borrow it!" Ling Lao said hurriedly, while gently wiping the fine sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
Such a fragment of a book has such a great charm? Yun Yi sighed in his heart, nodded, and immediately left for the library of the Department of History without saying a word. There are not many people now, he can take time to go to Ling Lao to take it out, if there are too many people, it is estimated that the time will not be enough.
Back and forth, in about half an hour, Yun Yi returned to the counter with the books, but it seemed that there was more than one.
Ling Lao saw Yun Yi holding a thick book wrapped in sheepskin in one hand, and carefully holding an old book that looked a little incomplete in the other.
Disheveled!
Yun Yi gently placed the two books on the counter, and some dust immediately rose around the books. But it's not dust, it's some of the bookscraps that come with every ancient book. Especially some old and old books, a lot of book scraps will fly out when you flip through them.
"Little friend, could it be that these two books are both "Epic of the Stars"?" Ling Lao couldn't help but speak, his eyes staring closely at the two big books on the counter, which were actually a little hot.
"Oh, Elder Ling, you misunderstood. Yun Yi smiled apologetically, and then gently pushed the somewhat mutilated book on his left hand in front of Ling Lao.
The book is unusually old, the book is a wire-bound book, but the cover is reinforced on the outside with some precious materials. Looking from the side, it is not difficult to find some signs of damage in the book, but the scope is not very large. And judging by the almost yellowed paper around the edges of the book, it seems a little too old.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the intricate gilded script on the top of the book cover, which is a script from an ancient era, called the Brilliant Script. Yun Yi could only recognize two of the characters as "Xing" and "Chen", if it weren't for someone who would have specially translated them when registering, he still wouldn't know that this was "The Epic of Stars".
