"This is the key to the old library, carefully organized!"

Steward Wang took out a key and handed it to Ye Chen.

"Yes!"

Ye Chen took the Huang Chengcheng key.

The library has a total of five floors, and the second floor is for ordinary miscellaneous books, which can be borrowed by college students at will. Above the three-story pavilion are martial arts books, which need to cost different gold and silver according to the level of martial arts, so they can be borrowed. There are even peerless-level martial arts classics at the top, and only a very few top disciples are allowed to view them.

Used book stacks, on the basement level of the Book Pavilion.

Ye Chen came to the basement floor of the library alone, opened the heavy copper lock on the door, and "crunched" to push open the door of the old library, the light inside was dim, and the corners were covered with cobwebs, obviously few people would come here to clean up.

Ye Chen lit the oil lamp on the wall in the library.

Only then did I see several piles of old book scrolls, stacked haphazardly on the ground, with a height of a foot. There are also rows of empty wooden bookshelves in the stack, and the sorted books can be placed on the wooden bookshelves next to them.

"So many books!"

Ye Chen was surprised, came to the pile of books, and began to patiently sort out the old books. He doesn't read many books on weekdays, and spends most of his time cultivating and doing chores to earn money. However, after all, he had been in the academy for ten years, and he still knew the characters.

He picked up a worn-out yellow book and dusted it off.

"Travels of the Nations!"

Ye Chen frowned, flipped through it casually, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Which idle person wrote, actually ran to dozens of countries around the martial arts, recorded the interesting news of the sesame seeds seen along the way, a certain country lord lost a chicken, it is said that this chicken has aura, I heard that the leader sent someone to steal it, so the two countries went to war, a certain place well water gushed out of the spring, attracting several surrounding large villages residents of the group incident. What is recorded in this book is purely a group of people who have nothing to do when they are full of food, otherwise why would they fight in a group for a well because of the loss of a chicken, it is ridiculous. ”

While Ye Chen's eyes were wide open, he couldn't help but shake his head.

The material of these books also amazed Ye Chen.

Hundreds of years of paper scrolls, thousands of years of ancient books recorded in bamboo slips, and even more ancient bone fragments and tortoise shells. The rare ancient texts on it were profound and obscure, making Ye Chen dizzy and unable to understand them at all.

I am afraid that these are some very old families, because the family is depressed, they have to take out the old collection of books and sell them. In addition, it is possible to find some books that are clearly mutilated or damaged. Such books are useless, and they cannot be read, so they have to be found.

Ye Chen was in the library, carefully sorting out the books one by one.

This must be done very meticulously, without the slightest sloppiness.

There was no one else in the old library.

He was the only one working quietly.

Ye Chen cultivated every morning, and came to sort out the scrolls every afternoon, which was more than ten days.

On this day, Ye Chen pulled out a dusty graystone scroll from the depths of the pile of old books.

"Hey, what is this!"

Ye Chen curiously used his sleeves to brush off the dust on the scroll.

The shaft handle of the scroll is a gray stone shaft. The workmanship appears to be quite rough, the potholes are not smooth, and the shaft handle is bent and written with two ancient words "Xianfu".

The cloth quality of the ancient painting scroll is very strange, like paper but not paper, like cloth but not cloth. And it's very hard, I pull it, I can't pull it.

Ye Chen opened the scroll curiously.

It turned out to be an ancient painting, about one foot wide and two feet long.

In the painting, it is an island floating in the sky, like a dream, like a fairy island.

There is also a wooden house on the island, an acre of medicine garden, a simple alchemy pavilion, a refining pavilion, a beast pen and other buildings, scattered on the island.

In the right corner of the painting, a little fox is also drawn, with teeth and claws, which is indescribably weird.

"This painting is called 'Immortal Mansion', and the painting is not the fairy island where the immortals live?"

Ye Chen muttered to himself, and couldn't help but be happy.

From the imperial court to the common people in the city, the martial arts know a lot of legends about the immortals.

Even the first dean of the Beilu Academy is said to be an immortal cultivator who cultivates flying swords, a disciple of the Immortal Sect, and was once the national teacher of the Martial Kingdom. Of course, that was hundreds of years ago, and no one had ever seen this dean.

"How do immortals live in a wooden house?"

"Why is this medicine garden bare, and there are no fairy herbs and immortal medicines planted on it! There are also alchemy rooms and refining workshops, and there is no smoke! There are not one or two spirit beasts in the animal pen. The immortals who live on this island are really lazy!"

"By the way, isn't the little fox white, why is it just red hair?! What is it doing with its teeth and claws? It feels like it is very scared and unhappy. ”

Ye Chen felt amused.

This picture of Xianfu is quite interesting, but this brush is really not flattering, and the pen is scribbled, a bit like a child's essay on ink.

"It's strange, this is clearly a painting, how can it be put together with these old books and sent to this Beilu Academy. ”

In fact, Ye Chen didn't know that the calligraphy and painting family were usually placed together.

Those down-and-out families want to sell their collections, and most of them even sell their paintings.

Ye Chen took the ancient painting scroll and looked at it repeatedly for a while.

The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

Although the painting is relatively bad, it is also a picture of immortals living on the fairy island.

He has been cultivating in Beilu Academy for ten years, and his greatest wish is only to break through the sixth layer of refining body and successfully graduate from Beilu Academy. If one day, if you can reach the ninth layer of the martial arts refining period and become a national-level divine swordsman in Wuguo Town, it must be the ancestral tomb that is smoking.

The legend of the immortals is a very distant story for him.

This ancient painting scroll made him feel kind.

Ye Chen was a little worried, the library of Beilu Academy only collects books, not picture scrolls, and most of this painting is piled up in the old library and does not see the light of day, or it is discarded elsewhere.

It's a pity that this ancient painting was discarded.

"However, to take it away, it must be done through the nod of the king's steward, and I am afraid it will cost a sum of money. In this way, the silver taels on the cultivation herbs will naturally be less. ”

Ye Chen hesitated

In the evening, Ye Chen finished today's work, left the old library, and locked the door.

"Steward Wang, today's disciples have cleaned up more than 400 books! There are also dozens of completely useless waste books and fragments that need to be discarded!"

Ye Chen reported to the king about the arrangement of the old library.

"Hmm. ”

Steward Wang is still quite satisfied with Ye Chen, in the past ten days, Ye Chen came early and left after dark, and he did his best to work, and he was not lazy.

"Steward Wang, I want to buy three old books and go back to them. These old books are all classified as discarded, a hundred copper coins a piece, what do you think?"

Ye Chen took out the two old books and an ancient painting scroll.

He was a little apprehensive in his heart, the two dilapidated old books were completely covering for the ancient painting scroll. He was worried that it would be too abrupt to take this ancient painting scroll and leave alone, and it would be troublesome if he would be taken by the king's steward and detained.

"Ugh. ”

Steward Wang was about to shake his head and say no, but when he heard that Ye Chen was paying for it later, he immediately swallowed the word.

"A hundred copper is too little, these two are good books, one or two silver! ”

Steward Wang glanced at a few broken books and rolled his eyelids.

The ancient painting scroll was a rough and ugly gray stone shaft handle, not a delicate and warm jade shaft handle, not worth a dozen copper coins, and he was not interested in turning it over. Since these books are discarded books, they will have to be disposed of sooner or later, and the money can be put into his private account, not into the accounts of the college.

"So expensive?"

Ye Chen was taken aback, he knew that he didn't want these two old books, and directly asked for the ancient painting scroll. But if he repents now, he is afraid that he will annoy the king.

He gritted his teeth and secretly made a decision, "In the past ten days, I have earned ten taels of silver, which is far more than I expected." I have never bought something I like in ten years, and today I spent two taels of silver to buy it back. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－

When I got up in the morning, I was surprised to see that "The Edge of Immortal Mansion" appeared on the weekly recommendation list on the homepage of the starting point. The book was released the next day and last week, which was much better than the best results I had expected. I can't thank you, I can only try my best to code words and keep them updated.

The plot of this book will unfold quickly, and the chapters of Xianfu will come out. During Ye Chen's martial arts period, he would only use a very small part of the functions of the Immortal Mansion. More functions will be revealed after Ye Chen embarks on the path of cultivating immortals, and they will be very huge.

Two shifts a day, 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.
