Chapter 20: Copying Books
In the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, two people stood in the center of the hall, and they couldn't tell whether they were men or women in appearance, only to see that the two of them had their hair standing upside down, their faces were black, their clothes were ragged, and there were bursts of smoke and an unpleasant smell of burnt smell coming out of their bodies.

When the immortals saw them like this, they were all secretly laughing, and a few of them had already laughed, even the Jade Emperor, who was high up and had always been solemn and solemn, couldn't help laughing.
The Jade Emperor couldn't help laughing, and then asked seriously, "I said two immortals, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing the Jade Emperor's question, Lei Gong and Dianmu immediately knelt on the ground, and Lei Gong said with a lost expression: "Jade Emperor, we went to observe the demonic energy in the mortal world according to your will, and were about to dispose of it, when suddenly a goblin burst out, we wanted to correct him, but we didn't expect that the goblin was profound, and the two of us could not beat him together, and he was beaten like this, please ask the Jade Emperor to get justice for us." ”
The Jade Emperor was shocked when he heard this: "There is such a thing, dare to break ground on my head, I am really impatient." You guys go back and clean it up, and I'll discuss with you how to deal with that monster. ”
Lei Gong and the electric mother retreated, and the Jade Emperor immediately discussed countermeasures with the immortals.
Zhang Dazhong was frightened by the thunder just now, and when he saw that the clouds were light and the wind was clear and the moon was bright at this time, his heart relaxed a lot. However, he still had palpitations, and he didn't have the heart to continue to enjoy the cold, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the prison and hurried into the house.
After Zhang Dazhong returned to the house, Su Jiuniang also asked Zhang Jingsheng to avoid it, saying that she had something to ask for a prison.
Zhang Jingsheng found that his mother was a little different from the past, especially after seeing the prison, it was even more abnormal. However, his mother's instructions were very respectful, and he went back to his room alone.
After returning to the room, he suddenly remembered to copy the "Xuantian Baicao Sutra", so he lit the oil lamp, studied the ink, spread the paper, and just picked up the pen to write, when he suddenly heard someone ask: "Master, what are you doing here?"
Zhang Jingsheng looked up, it turned out to be a prison, and asked in surprise: "How did you come in just now?" I didn't hear the door open. What did my mother ask you?"
"Well, my aunt cares about me very much, and she has done some homework with me, and asked me to protect you all the time in the future. Master, what the hell are you doing with this little bamboo?" asked Qian Firmly pointing to the brush in Zhang Jingsheng's hand.
"Isn't this a copy, how can I copy without a pen? You don't even know this, do you? ”
"Ah...... Master, you don't have to copy it, I've already copied a copy, and I'm idle anyway, so I'll copy it for you first, and I'll show it to you right away. I just heard the thunder and came out, but fortunately I was one step earlier, otherwise I would have been guilty for the rest of my life. ”
"Ah...... You're already copying it? No, it's so fast, quick, show it to me, I don't know if there is a copy or a leak, and I'm going to copy it all night tonight. Zhang Jingsheng asked suspiciously, and reached out to ask for something from the prison.
The prison took out the burden from under the bed, and after opening it, he took out the demon refining pot, reached out and took out a lot of bamboo pieces in it for a while.
Zhang Jingsheng took a piece of bamboo and looked at it carefully, only to see that each piece of bamboo was engraved with words, and those bamboo pieces seemed to be fresh, and there was a fresh smell of bamboo, as if those bamboos had just been cut from the outside.
Zhang Jingsheng asked in confusion: "Big brother, what are you doing with these bamboo chips? Where did you get these bamboos?"
"Oh, didn't you say that you wanted to copy the "Xuantian Hundred Herbs Sutra"? No, while you were having dinner, I went to the bamboo sea on Taiping Mountain with the method of retreating, found some bamboo, and made bamboo pieces, you see, I have already carved all of them for you, as long as you find some more lines to connect them, you can read it, ah, no, I only care about the lettering, and the order is messed up, what can I do. He was holding a large handful of bamboo chips in a daze. ...,
"Ah...... No, this ...... Is this the book you copied?" Zhang Jingsheng asked with a smile, pointing to the bamboo piece in his hand.
He took out a book from the bookcase, then handed it to the prison, and said, "Big brother, your book is no longer good, and now the books are written on paper, and they are written with a pen, not carved on bamboo with a knife." Forget it, you put away all these bamboo chips, and I'll copy them myself. ”
After speaking, he found the four treasures of the study, took the ink ingot and began to grind the ink in the inkstone, and the Luo Lao held the book on the side, and praised it while turning it over: "It turns out that the current book is like this, it is much easier to hold, and you can carry it with you, which is great!"
After a while, Zhang Jingsheng polished the ink, unfolded a piece of white paper, and then took out the bamboo slips of the "Xuantian Baicao Sutra" from the dark compartment under the bed, and then lifted the brush and began to copy according to the bamboo slips.
He found that Zhang Jingsheng was copying very slowly, reading and writing while reading, so he asked Zhang Jingsheng: "Master, when will you be able to copy it like this?"
"You copied it?" Zhang Jingsheng asked suspiciously, "You still write this?"
"No, I didn't know it yet, I just stood next to you and looked at it for a while, it seems that I think it's easy to write with this thing, at least it's much easier than carving words on bamboo with a knife, master, you just let me try it, I remember every word of this "Xuantian Baicao Sutra" clearly, I don't need to look at this bamboo slip to write it silently. ”
"Okay, you can write a few words for me to read!" Zhang Jingsheng looked at Qi Prison with suspicious eyes, and then found another piece of paper, he wanted to see if Qi Prison could write.
He learned from Zhang Jingsheng's appearance, dipped his pen in ink, and then wrote a few words on the paper. Zhang Jingsheng took it and looked at it, only to see that the writing was vigorous and powerful, and he asked suspiciously: "Big brother, did you know how to write before?" You said that you just learned, I don't believe it, how can you write so well. ”
Qi Prison lowered his head and replied: "Master, I really used this pen for the first time to write, I used to be with the old master, the old master carved the words on the animal bone or tortoise shell, but that kind of thing is not easy to clean up, carved words are also few, so it is very inconvenient, and then once the cave opened, I took the opportunity to go out to have a look, and saw that people carved the words on the bamboo pieces, so I learned that, I think it is much more convenient than the original, and it is much easier to clean up." I just opened my eyes today, and it turns out that the current words are written with a pen like this. Master, you just sit there and rest, don't worry, I will copy this "Xuantian Baicao Sutra" soon. ”
Before Zhang Jingsheng could agree, he pressed him to a chair and asked him to sit down, and then said quite proudly: "Master, I'll let you see how to write quickly." ”
After finishing speaking, he picked up a blank booklet again, only to see him dip it in ink again, and then quickly sketch on the booklet, as if there were words in his mouth.
Zhang Jingsheng walked around to the back of the prison, and saw that he wrote so fast, as if no one could match him, and he didn't seem to have to think about it.
Zhang Jingsheng was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he opened the bamboo slip next to him and wanted to compare it so that he could point out his mistakes. But before Zhang Jingsheng could turn over there, he had already written a large paragraph, and Zhang Jingsheng stood there, only sighing to himself.
The faster he wrote, the pen in his hand seemed to be connected with him, and after half an hour, he had finished writing, making Zhang Jingsheng dance with joy.
Zhang Jingsheng took the newly copied book from the prison, flipped through and flipped through it, read and looked, and was so happy that he couldn't speak. But after being happy for a while, Zhang Jingsheng felt a little inappropriate again, because this book is too new, and it also exudes a strong ink fragrance, if this is given to Saihuatuo, people will definitely not want it, and the ancestral jade pendant still can't be taken back. Fortunately, my father and mother didn't know about it, or they would have been scolded to death by them. This jade pendant is their lifeblood, and when it is handed over to them, it is also a thousand instructions, this thing must not be lost. ...,
Seeing that Zhang Jingsheng was happy and in a daze, he asked Zhang Jingsheng curiously, "Master, what are you thinking about?"
"Alas, this book is so new, if you give it to others, people may suspect that this book is fake, how nice it would be if it was made into an old book. Zhang Jingsheng sighed.
"Master, what are those old books, let me see, maybe I can copy them. ”
When Zhang Jingsheng heard this, he regained his happy appearance and said excitedly: "Really? What you said is true? Great, great! I'll find you an old book." After saying that, he went to the bookcase and found an older book, only to see that the cover of the book had been yellowed, and the corners were rolled up, and it looked like it was some years old.
Zhang Jingsheng took the old book and said to Qi Jiao: "Big brother, if you turn the book just now into this way, I will definitely be grateful to you! In that case, you can hide it from everyone and take it to Sai Huatuo tomorrow."
"Don't dare, as long as the master can appreciate me, then I'll try it, if it's broken, I'll copy it again." ”
After finishing speaking, he held the new book he had just copied in his hand, and then looked at the old book, and there were words in his mouth, and suddenly Zhang Jingsheng saw that the book in his hand came out of white smoke, as if it was about to burn.
Zhang Jingsheng hurriedly ran over, trying to snatch the book, but before his hand touched, he only saw a dazzling white light flashing, Zhang Jingsheng lowered his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the book in his hand had become very old.
Zhang Jingsheng took it and looked at it, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, he realized how convenient it was to have some spells, so he secretly had the idea of learning spells in his heart.
He persuaded Zhang Jingsheng: "Master, after a tiring day today, it's time to rest! After speaking, he got into the demon refining pot.
Zhang Jingsheng suddenly felt a little tired when he heard what he said, thinking about it, from morning to now, he has not rested for a moment, and he has spent it in fear and curiosity.
He put the demon refining pot and other things under the bed, then went to rinse his body, and then came back and lay down on the bed for a while before falling asleep.
