Chapter 125: Master Xiao Chen
Late at night, endless books.
After arranging Wang Shui's residence, Sword Master Hang waved his hand and left.
Wang Shui didn't rush to read, but walked around the entire library first.
It is a thirteen-storey wooden high-rise building, with the largest area on the first floor and smaller and smaller upwards.
The décor is plain and very clean and tidy, but there is always a clear sense of vicissitudes.
On the first floor, there is a large number of books.
On the inside of the huge cloister, there are many semi-open rooms without doors, and at the door of each room, there are classified door numbers.
About two steps inside, there are rows of bookshelves.
These bookshelves are basically made of dark brown hardwood, and there are various paper thread-bound books and loose booklets, as well as bamboo slips, stone chips, metal plates and other knowledge carriers.
On the first floor of the Book Pavilion, in the rooms of [Cultivation], [History], [Miscellaneous Talk], and [Untruthful Records], there were the most stuff and the most stuff.
There are even newly expanded areas in these rooms.
Those entry-level cultivation books were piled up on the low bookshelves that entered the door of the [Cultivation] classification.
Not only were they printed in many copies, but they were also bound in a more modern line binding, and they looked like privately printed booklets.
Wang Shui found the three books "Taihe Yuanqi", "Qi Yu Shen" and "Qi Qi", which were somewhat unexpectedly thick for Wang Shui.
He flipped through a few pages, and it turned out that many interpretations of his predecessors had been added to them.
Wang Shui took a copy of all the entry-level books and threw them into the space of the Awakened.
There are no special prohibitions here, but Wang Shui didn't think about stealing anything, and threw it into the storage space just to make it easier to carry.
There is also a "school area" between the residential area and the "library area", which is supposed to be a place for public reading.
The tables and chairs in the "school district" are not regular, and there are various shapes, but they are also orderly and staggered in the chaos, and some people arrange them harmoniously.
Wang Shui even saw the sofa and the low table inside, it seems that the disciples of the past generations moved over by themselves?
There was a wide staircase leading to the second floor, and Wang Shui did not hesitate to go directly to the second floor, and then to the higher floors.
The upper room is much smaller.
From the fifth floor, the books are no longer classified, and the annotations have become fewer.
Wang Shui casually opened a copy of "Four-Yuan Jade Jian: Divine Explanation", and the annotations next to it often mentioned - if you want to understand this part, you must first understand which book.
The staircase of the Book Pavilion, like the ladder of learning and progress, becomes more and more difficult and abstract with each upper floor, and the relatively simple and elementary knowledge below is the solid foundation of the high-rise building.
Wang Shui wants to go to school.
However, he still insisted on reaching the thirteenth floor.
It is a small pavilion of about fifty or sixty square meters, surrounded by large transparent wooden windows, and the mountain breeze and moonlight penetrate several groups of hardwood furniture, as well as four bookshelves that have been used as walls.
It's quiet and far-reaching, so uncomfortable.
There aren't many books here, and a faint glow protects the bookshelves in an almost open-air environment.
Wang Shui didn't reach for the books, because behind the innermost desk, someone was reading.
It was a black girl with a single ponytail, only eighteen or nineteen years old.
She wore a simple light inky satin dress and a long black cloak, as if she could not resist the cold mountain wind with only thin clothes, so she held her bare feet in her arms again, and the whole person was curled up on the cushion of the wide wooden chair.
Like an elegant black cat.
The other party seemed to be attracted by the content of the book, and felt Wang Shui's gaze, so he reluctantly looked up.
Her ivory skin glowed coldly in the moonlight, and her delicate features gave her serenity a hint of cunning.
"Did you catch up here, Awakened?"
Well?!
Isn't it, you wait a minute!?
is obviously an ancient beauty, but she said something that made Wang Shui cold from the back of her head to her heels.
"Wait, I'm just passing by to study, and I don't know you." Wang Shui immediately explained at the fastest speed.
He was very afraid that the reality would develop into a battle mixed with misunderstanding, and in the petite body of the other party, an unknown momentum was rising, and it soon broke through Wang Shui's cognition.
Sylvia also came to the perspective, she helped Wang Shui take on a lot of pressure, but she didn't know the person on the other side.
"It turned out to be one of the same kind, ha, another one."
In the last second, the surrounding bookshelves had begun to creak inexplicably.
But in the next second, the cold mountain wind blew everything away.
Negotiable, not crazy, but definitely not local.
While thinking at high speed, Wang Shui took half a step back, took a deep breath, and a trace of cold sweat already broke out on his body.
In a trance of staggered pressure, the figure behind the huge desk was gone, and after a little retraction, Su Baiyu put his hand on Wang Shui's shoulder.
The other party used his index finger to wipe a thin layer of sweat off Wang Shui's face, and then teleported back to the desk.
Invisible and imperceptible.
Wang Shui couldn't even tell whether the other party relied on speed or spatial ability.
"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person, I'm just a little irritated by your high-level awakened people, I didn't expect that I hid in this kind of fragmented fantasy world, and I was actually discovered twice, it seems that it's time to leave."
With that, the girl had already risen from her chair, she had been floating in the air, and the long cloak slipped off, completely covering her body.
"You can come and go in and out of this world at will?!"
"Of course, as long as you find ...... Uh, it's bad, I almost forgot, this world is going on a "proxy war", and you can't leave the protagonist if you find ......"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then sat back in her chair with some dejection.
"I'll have to wait until you're done fighting, but I warn you, don't do anything near me that will attract the attention of the system, although I'm not a murderous warmonger like your awakened ones, but I also have a temper!"
It's great that you're not a murderer!
Wang Shui's hanging heart let go of most of it, and he quickly sorted out his mood, trying to disassemble the other party's communication habits in order to choose the appropriate way of communication.
He had so much to ask.
The other party seems to be a very powerful boss, and her temperament reminds Wang Shui of the head of the demon hunter in the real world - Li Junqing.
"You just seem to say that we are one kind?"
Wang Shui forced himself to remain calm, and sat down at a desk on the side as calmly as possible.
He took out a copy of "Qi Yu Shen" from the space and put it in front of him, as if he wanted to read it here, but in fact it was just to sit down and find an opportunity to speak.
"Huh? Don't feel it yet? The girl raised her right hand and twisted her index finger and thumb slightly, her fingertips were the fine sweat of aqua regia.
Feel? What does it feel like?
"Know-it-all, fool! When you entered my library, didn't you find that this place was built by my spiritual power! Oh, you're only second-order, alas, how stupid and weak. ”
"You're a know-it-all, too!"
This time, Wang Shui was really shocked.
The previous information about other knowledgeable people was either mentioned by others, or it was recorded in a book, and it was the first time that Wang Shui had seen it in the same way.
Many of Wang Shui's questions turned into curiosity about the same kind, and he was very curious about what was the actual difference between other knowers and him.
"It's normal to be shocked, there are really very few of our kind, even I've only seen five, oh, count you six.
We don't have much to do with each other, but we all love knowledge, and apart from strong negative traits like jealousy and thirst, we can get along well.
Well, let me see yours, hiss-arrogance, a new arrogance, the last one, seems to have died decades ago, your character is too picky, too slow to grow. ”
It was sweat, and the know-it-all girl read the message from the sweat of the regia.
"What is your character?"
"It's presumptuous, so I won't tell you!" The girl suddenly smiled slyly, and then licked her fingertips,
"Wow, with such a wealth of alchemy knowledge, there should be a master, right? The second is botany, extraordinary plants, and almost at the master level.
Well, this flavor is spatial knowledge, and it seems that you have not only learned space magic in this strange world, but also have a lot of your own opinions.
The magic system, it's so messy, you seem to have a lot of insight in soul magic, what is the [Thought Lock]? ”
Wang Shui was so surprised that his mouth opened wide......
The girl, whose name was not yet known, came to Wang Shui's side again, and Wang Shui shrank behind the wide chair in fright.
After all, he's just a small second-order.
"It's just a second-order, but the knowledge you have is so extensive and far-reaching, is [arrogance] so strong?"
"Uh, I'm ...... I'm a newcomer! Shouldn't I be skeptical to ask?! So, what kind of personality are you? How can I read so much information from my sweat?! ”
Wang Shui boldly continued to ask.
"Hey, I won't tell you!"
The girl returned to her cushion and began the mode of being a good teacher for anyone who knows:
"Or are you the one who smells of 'Xingchen' and 'Qi' in your body, so you're here to find a way to cultivate the origin of your life?"
"Yes, my physical fitness is stuck in the extreme value of ordinary humans, and under the limitation of talent, it is difficult for me to improve myself through "not being a person", and "Qi", or "True Yuan", has improved me by those who know it."
"Your thinking is very correct, the improvement brought by practicing "Qi" will indeed not change the essence of human beings, it is just a kind of perfection of life, a kind of return to the basics, just like me.
However, my personality only restricts me from using the career system, and it does not restrict me from improving myself, so I don't have the same experience as you.
No wonder you didn't find the problem with this bookstore, it turned out that the [perception] attribute was not enough, and the cultivation system was very suitable for you to use to improve your own attributes. ”
At this time, Wang Shui had already stood up, he bowed and bowed, and then said:
"I hope to give me advice."
"Well, that's easy to say." The girl also picked up the tone of her elders, and looked happy, as if she agreed.
In fact, Wang Shui originally wanted to say - you read my details, and deliberately said it to scare and tease me, in order to make up for this impolite behavior, you still didn't teach me to cultivate the truth?
But the other party is obviously a guy who eats soft and not hard, and it seems that he is being hunted by the system, so Wang Shui will naturally not pet the cat against the hair.
"In Xia Wang Shui, I haven't asked for the name of the teacher yet."
"Hmph, are you trying to find my information by my name? You're a bad guy with a complicated mind.
However, what's the matter with you, if you don't change your name or surname for the sake of your teacher, one of the [Ten Precepts of Gray Mist] [Phantom Mist Society] lifelong scholar - "Chen Chen" is also! ”
Master Chen is not only a good teacher, but also quite a bit of a charlatan.
"Then thank Master Chen first, but unfortunately I only have a second order, and I don't have any gifts and tuition. Or, the master will leave a contact information, and when the student and I are developed, I will repay your old man? ”
"Okay~"
I don't know if Master Chen is overconfident, or if she doesn't have this string in her head, she doesn't seem to care about Wang Shui's identity as an awakened person.
"So, I can start studying now, is there any order of study? Master Chen? ”
"You, why did you deliberately add the word 'small'?"
"Well, it's just that the master is very young, and he doesn't mean anything else."
"You-you You have to read all the books below the tenth floor before you are qualified to be taught by me.
It's not just memories! If you really want to understand those books, if you haven't finished learning them before the end of this world, then don't come to me. ”
Wang Shui's somewhat deliberate behavior is indeed deliberately testing Master Xiao Chen's character.
Although the other party is very generous, and even a little jumpy, as an old fritter in the social field, Wang Shui can clearly perceive the other party's barriers-
It's okay to teach, it's okay to chat, don't mention your life experience.
Wang Shui's temptation was not to explore the details, he was just to please Master Xiao Chen and learn more things in the future.
As for what secrets are behind the master, what does it have to do with him, a little transparent in his current life, and the future Russell family worker?
The system pursues Master Xiao Chen, that is the system's business.
However, Wang Shui's temptation is not all death, as for why Master Xiao Chen is suddenly sensitive, it is because Wang Shui vaguely looked at the other party's figure when he called 'Xiao'.
I believe that with Master Xiao Chen's strength, she should be able to perceive it, and Master Xiao Chen's reaction shows that she is not living in an environment of self-isolation for a long time.
Someone must have complained about her figure, or she herself has paid attention to this aspect, so she reacted immediately.
Experience told Wang Shui that he couldn't leave now.
Even if Master Xiao Chen is a little angry, leaving now will only make the just harmonious relationship even more distant.
A lot of times, the change of sensation between people is very fast.
Wang Shui turned the book he had taken out earlier to the first page and began to read it carefully.
However, Wang Shui knows how to use two minds, and he still has the energy to be distracted when reading this kind of entry-level book.
"Master, is this entire 'Boundless Library' an illusion that you have built with your spirit?"
"Alas, it's normal for the lower levels not to understand, this is not an illusion, but the embodiment of my reason.
【Rational Void】Have you seen it? That black void starry sky with a hollowed-out ball spinning around, and that ball represents all the knowledge you have. ”
"Yes."
"By the way, grasp that ball and turn it into a star in the void of reason, you can be regarded as stepping into the transcendent world, well-the third order can do it, don't worry.
After that, as long as your spirit, or psychic power, is strong enough, you will be able to manifest what is on your stars in reality. ”
Wang Shui had seen similar statements in some materials, but he had only thought of embodying the "hollowed-out transcendent ball".
In fact, he can now summon certain rings that make up the ball to increase his power.
For example, the ring that the "Gate of Truth" turns into can enhance his alchemy as much as the Gate of Truth.
"Looking at you, you seem to know what's going on, yes, this library is all my knowledge."
"What about this [Xueshan] and the [Double Dragon Sword Sect] here?"
"Of course, I also did it, I saw that there were related civilizations in the Far East region of this world, and in the early days of world construction, I secretly participated in the world editing.
Editing this sword faction is just to cover up, in fact, only the "Boundless Book Pavilion" and the "Book Sword Mountain Rain Pavilion" belong to me, and when I leave, all the spirit swords will be recovered, you kid don't think about becoming a sword master! ”
"Huh? I'm your own student, and I don't have a spirit sword?! ”
"Get out! Who was born biologically! My spirit sword, I have the final say! ”
As soon as Master Chen's words fell, an inky light rose to the sky on the "Shujian Mountain Rain Pavilion" next door, but it quietly broke through the sky.
"Ahh My Spirit Sword! ”
Master Xiao Chen hurriedly stood up, but he could only watch as the spirit sword left this world alone.
