Chapter 11: The Book Thief

"Mr. Big, are you going back?"

The white-haired old man wanted to step forward and reprimand the junior who was not good at reading a few words, but was stopped by a middle-aged man who walked towards him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"It's Ji Zhen, why do you have time to come to this shabby book building to visit. ”

The middle-aged man has a good face, but the old man still has a straight face.

"Mr. Big has tormented me, these days, Yunxiao Pavilion has recruited new disciples, and there are many new disciples, and I am also a steward, so there are more things. ”

"Look at your appearance, this time the Cloud Pavilion has recruited a lot of good seedlings. ”

"There is a disciple who is good, a high-grade immortal vein, and his brain is also flexible, I have already asked him to read the "Yunxiao Naling Sutra", and he has read two chapters in a month, and his qualifications are not bad. ”

"Read two chapters in January?" The white-haired old man's eyes lit up, and then he squinted and smiled: "Ji Zhen, you have picked up a treasure, you have to ask for a good drink." ”

"Bring it!"

The middle-aged man patted a large gourd on his waist.

The white-haired old man, who was extremely bored and wanted to go downstairs, turned around and followed the middle-aged man upstairs without saying a word, and even forgot about reprimanding Li Yunsheng.

Li Yunsheng didn't notice the episode here, and kept reading until the sun sank.

His method of reading books is still the same as before, the fairy roughly sweeps it, writes down the content of the book one by one, and then goes home to "chew and swallow slowly", although this method makes him feel a little blushing, but now he is in the fairy mansion and is not rich when he was in his hometown, and the cost of borrowing books is too expensive, and the time to read slowly here is not allowed, so there is only this way.

However, his "blushing" is a little redundant, because throughout the ages, there have been few people who have read books to him like this.

"Your name is Li Yunsheng?"

Just as Li Yunsheng stuffed the book he had just finished reading into the bookshelf, a long-faced young man walked up to him.

"Yes. ”

Although the young man was faced, Li Yunsheng still nodded.

Strangely, after hearing Li Yunsheng's answer, the young man sneered and left.

Li Yunsheng, who was puzzled, looked at the back of the young man leaving, tilted his head and looked puzzled, and finally shook his head. During these days, because of his "clear Taoist heart" and the flowering millennium locust tree, there were a few people who came to Baiyun to watch him, but when they saw Li Yunsheng's ordinary appearance, most of them were either disappointed or ridiculed, Li Yunsheng didn't take it to heart, several senior brothers and Yang Wanli lost their temper, and once the third senior brother Li Changgeng took a flat shoulder and stood at the foot of the mountain to scatter the group of people who came to watch the play, and the people who came to watch the play gradually decreased.

"Then Senior Sister Chu Chu, did you go out with the second senior brother?"

Seeing that the person sitting at the front desk at the door had changed to a young man with Sven, and there was no trace of Li Yan, Li Yunsheng was curious.

He didn't think much about it, he helped Li Changgeng borrow the book "The Legend of the Demon Slayer", refunded the deposit for reading the book and prepared to walk out of the gate.

"Woo...... Woof!

But before he could walk out of the gate ten steps away, a big white dog rushed out of nowhere and pounced fiercely at Li Yunsheng.

Before Li Yunsheng could react, he was fiercely pounced on the ground by the vicious dog.

"It's okay, Xiaobai, bring him here.

Just as the fangs of the giant dog were about to bite Li Yunsheng's neck, the Sven man sitting at the counter at the door put down the accounting pen in his hand and shouted at the big white dog, but he didn't expect it to bite and drag Li Yunsheng back into the building as if it understood human words.

"Get up, book thief, Xiaobai won't really hurt you. ”

The man glanced at Li Yunsheng with some disgust.

"Book thief?"

The gray-faced Li Yunsheng glanced at the big dog in front of him with palpitations, and looked at the man in surprise.

"If you hadn't stolen the books in the building, Xiaobai wouldn't have bitten you, bring it!"

The Sven man stretched out his hand towards Li Yunsheng and said.

"What kind of book? I only borrowed a copy of "The Legend of the Demon Slayer"."

Li Yunsheng handed the borrowed book in his hand to the man facing Sven.

"I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin. ”

The Sven man snorted coldly again, and then walked straight to Li Yunsheng, reached out to his waist, and took out a booklet.

"What is this?"

Seeing the booklet in the man's hand, Li Yunsheng was stunned, he could be very sure that he didn't take it himself. He quickly thought of the young man who had just asked him if his name was "Li Yunsheng", and the only possibility he could think of was that this person put the book on him, but what Li Yunsheng couldn't figure out at all was: Why did he do this?

"What's the matter, it's noisy. ”

At this time, some of the disciples who were originally reading books on the first floor came over, and even the white-haired old man and the middle-aged man who had been drinking upstairs walked down.

"Tell the two uncles and ancestors that this wild boy who doesn't know where he came from actually dared to steal books in the Yellow Crane Tower, and was caught by Xiaobai. ”

Seeing these two people, Sven's man's expression immediately became extremely humble.

"Is that you?" the white-haired old man recognized Li Yunsheng, who was the disciple he had seen when he went downstairs earlier and didn't read seriously.

"No wonder you just read a book and lost it, it turned out that you were looking for a book!"

"Mr. Big knows this kid?"

The middle-aged man looked at Li Yunsheng with interest.

"Hmph, just before I met you, I saw this kid keep taking books off the shelves, and he wasn't a serious reader at all. ”

Li Yunsheng didn't know why the old man in front of him was, but when he heard the old man say this, he instantly understood that if his way of reading books fell in the eyes of outsiders, it would indeed look like this, but he was not easy to explain.

Li Yunsheng, who couldn't argue for a while, was only silent.

"Come on, come on, I'll see which one you've picked for so long, and which one you picked in the end, if your vision is good, I can consider letting people break your arm less at that time. ”

I don't know if it's because I drank a little, but the white-haired old man actually had fun.

"It's Yun Yangzi's "Notes on Baixi Thatched Cottage". ”

The man respectfully handed it to the white-haired old man.

"I didn't expect you to be quite good at stealing, this is a lonely book that should be able to exchange for a hundred and ten catties of fairy food. ”

The old man sneered at Li Yunsheng.

"I have also read Yun Yangzi's notes, he is very talented and extraordinary, if the lone book is really worth this price, the books on this floor are really not worth much compared to this side, and the children are very discerning. ”

The middle-aged man on the side didn't know whether to be genuinely appreciative or ironic.

These books in the Yellow Crane Tower are ordinary in the building, but if they are taken out, even in this Qinglian Immortal Mansion, each one is expensive.

"This broken book is worth a hundred catties of immortal food?? If I really want to steal it, I won't steal it. ”

Li Yunsheng really didn't know what a lonely book was, but he happened to read this book today, and he didn't think it was a good book, on the contrary, he was very disgusted.

"The tone is arrogant, tell me, how did this book break?"

The white-haired old man sneered.

"Yes, it's the first time I've heard anyone dare to say this about Yun Yangzi's book, I don't know if you're really ignorant or a little simple. ”

The middle-aged man was also laughing on the side.

In front of them, they were in no hurry to deal with Li Yunsheng.

"I really don't know if this "Baixi Thatched Cottage Notes" is the only one, but when I read it, I found that it was nothing more than a flattery of this heavenly way from beginning to end, such as the ...... on page 20 of the 'conservation of heavenly destiny'"

I don't know if it's because I've read too many books today, the more Li Yunsheng talks, the more excited he becomes, he not only takes the content of this "Baixi Thatched Cottage Notes" itself, but also cites many books opened today to testify to his own views, and the logic is clear and not at all like something that can be said from a teenager's mouth.

The white-haired old man and the middle-aged man glanced at each other, and the two of them seemed to be completely drunk at this time.

"And if you were to steal, which one would you steal?"

The middle-aged man first glanced at the white-haired old man, and then stared at Li Yunshengdao.

"The books on this floor, although I haven't read them all, but if I think the most valuable book should be the one that "Jade Xuzi Says the Subtle Sutra" ,This book is a little strange.,The beginning reads like I'm listening to this jade Xuzi drunken gibberish.,It took me a long time to read it.,But when I looked in, I found out that the drunken gibberish at the beginning is really word for word.,What I admire the most is the courage of the jade Xuzi to treat the way of heaven.,I look at the thousands of articles on this floor.,In fact, most of them are just flattering words about the way of heaven.,Only this one is different.,The opening chapter scolds the way of heaven.,The middle part argues with the way of heaven.,Although the latter part is vague.,But it can be seen that the jade Xuzi has found a way to coexist with the way of heaven.,Even. ......”

Saying this, Li Yunsheng did not continue, but raised his head to look at the white-haired old man and the middle-aged man, "Yu Xuzi is really a great seeker, he should be the only real person among the many monks who have written books on this floor. ”

"Hahahaha......"

As soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, he saw the white-haired old man's voice like Hong Zhong raising his head and laughing.

"Let's go. ”

The middle-aged man also smiled and waved his hand at Li Yunsheng.

......

"Two uncles and ancestors, I still don't understand, the book is on him, just based on his nonsense, the two uncles and ancestors will let him go without punishment, I am afraid that in the future, I will give other brothers a bad start. ”

The man facing Sven looked at Li Yunsheng's back as he left, and asked with a frown.

"Didn't you notice that he had just memorized the "Baixi Thatched Cottage Notes" word for word?

The middle-aged man glared at the man facing Sven with hatred.

"Oh, I actually forgot to ask that little doll where the disciple of the blessed land is. ”

The white-haired old man patted his head and said.

"It's a newly accepted disciple of Baiyun Temple, called Li Yunsheng. ”

This time, the man facing Sven reacted quickly.

"Baiyun Temple?!"

"Could it be that the disciple who has a clear Dao heart in the Creation Theory?"

The middle-aged man suddenly remembered the incident that caused a stir a few days ago.

"You can't go wrong. ”

"In other words, this little doll is coming to the Yellow Crane Tower for the first time today?"

"In one day, I read most of the books on the first floor, not to mention, and memorized them all?"

The white-haired old man and the middle-aged man looked at each other again.

"However, it is said that this little doll's fairy vein is a rootless fairy vein...... It's a pity. ”

"But it's really brutal to let him stay in Baiyunguan and do farm work with a group of croppers. ”

The white-haired old man suddenly became fond of money.

"This is said to be the meaning of that one, and there is no root immortal vein, Baiyun Temple may be the best place to return, even if he can't cultivate, two catties and eight immortal veins per month are enough for him to prolong his life. The middle-aged man looked at the white-haired old man, "But the lifespan of Yijiazi is just a passing moment for us cultivators, even if you can break through the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Dao can also make time easily obliterate you." ”

"Alas...... It's a pity that a good seedling. ”

The white-haired old man let out a long sigh, and then the two of them went upstairs again.
