Almanac

The owner of the bookstore quickly took the book, opened the first page and read it carefully.Zhang Sheng was ready to move around, and finally couldn't bear it and leaned over to take a look.

Mr. Su Wen was not in a hurry, and he didn't seem to have any plans to hide it. He just waited patiently.

For thousands of years, not to mention the change of dynasties, even ordinary people have changed a lot.When Qi State existed, many villages gathered in many places even had innate special abilities, and the animals and plants in the wild were also different, so the way of governing the country was naturally different from what it is now.What's more, the ideas respected by the people of the two eras have also undergone considerable changes.

When Su Wenjun is free in the underworld, what he does most is to read books. Many ghost cultivators in the underworld know her hobby, so they naturally send her books continuously.

With just one page and a few lines, the eyes of the owner of the book shop turned from scrutiny to surprise, and even the hand holding the book trembled slightly.

Zhang Sheng opened his mouth even more, and the two looked up at each other, seeing similar emotions in each other's eyes.

So, the two "flinted" on Su Wenjun.

The book in his hand is a brand new paper, and it still smells of ink, it was silently written by the girl in front of him.

Although I only read one page, I can see the insights of the person who wrote this book from just this page, and there is no unnecessary nonsense and stereotypes at all.

"It's just a remnant copy." Su Wenjun added lightly at this time.

But at this point, the word "fragmented book" brought a higher sense of reality to this natural history, and the owner of the bookstore quickly said: "If this book is true to natural history, let alone the fragmented copy, even the fragmented pages will be more real." It's extremely precious. It's just..." He knew that his knowledge was limited, but he didn't dare to make a decision easily, "I don't know much, I need someone to appraise it, I don't know..."

Su Wenjun pondered for a moment, and responded simply: "Yes."

The owner of the bookstore and Zhang Sheng both showed surprise expressions. The owner of the bookstore is also an honest person, and quickly promised: "Don't worry, both of you, no matter what the result is, I guarantee that this book will not leak out. The person I want to visit But even the old master, I believe the girl also knows him."

Su Wenjun knows?Of course Su Wenjun didn't know, but this didn't prevent her from nodding her head: "That's the case, if necessary, you can also invite a few more great Confucian scholars to jointly identify it."

This almost directly spoke to the heart of the owner of the bookshop.

Originally, among many sellers, those who collect rare copies are more or less taboo, thinking that if more people read the book before it is sold, it will reduce the value of the "orphan copy", so he only mentioned it to the old master Lian for consideration. look.If the old master thought it was necessary, he would at best offer some money first and then ask the two girls to let go, but he never expected that she would be so generous and calm.

He hastily and carefully closed the booklet, placed it in the cleanest place on the counter, and then politely cupped his hands: "The girl is righteous! I will live up to the girl's entrustment."

This back and forth was actually finalizing the whole matter.

After making an appointment with the owner of the bookshop to come back in three days, Su Wenjun took Nan Gongjing and left here.

Apologizing to the scholars who were still reading in the book shop, the boss of the book shop quickly asked everyone to leave under the pretext of something important, closed the book shop, and rushed to Lian Laofuzi's mansion together with that student. middle.

With Zhang Sheng present, they quickly met Old Master Lian, explained the matter clearly, and handed him the thin booklet.

Old Master Lian turned the pages of the book with a solemn expression.

The two sat aside and waited quietly.

After about an hour, the old master finally finished flipping through the book, then closed his eyes, as if he was in deep thought.

an hour.

The owner of the book store exchanged glances with Zhang Sheng, and it took less than half an hour for the girl to silence the book.

They read a page of the book, and the girl's handwriting is very strong, it must be the result of years of hard training, and she is also a talented person.

So, what is Lian's answer?

Their palms were already sweaty and they were very nervous.

Finally, Old Master Lian let out a long breath and opened his eyes.

Whether Zhang Sheng is younger, he couldn't help asking: "Sir, is this book...is it true or not?"

Even the old master took a look at him. This is his youngest student, and it is inevitable for him to be young.He shook his head, and his eyes fell on the book in his hand again: "Nowadays, no one has seen the original book of natural history, and I can't tell whether it is true or not. But no matter what this fragment is, it is a rare work in the world. "

The big stone in the owner's heart fell to the ground, and then he was full of surprises.

Such a good thing, let him bump into it!As a book collector, he would always have the opportunity to see it!

However, the owner of the book store also wanted to find out what happened, and said politely: "The person who silently published this book said that if necessary, we can invite the great Confucians of the world to discuss this book together."

Even the old master was a little surprised: "Really?"

"Yes." Zhang Sheng also helped to explain, "The student also heard what the girl said with his own ears."

"Oh? The one who silently wrote this book is actually a woman?" Even the old master's first reaction was slightly different. He looked down at the words on the book again, and he could see the gully in his chest with every stroke. , "It's really a woman who doesn't give way to a man."

Although Zhang Sheng also felt that the writing was very good, he was impatient to listen to it, and only wanted to know the old master's decision: "Sir, what's next?"

"I will personally invite them to gather here." Even the old master is planning to cancel the decision to travel before, "If possible, please recommend the owner of the book. I hope she can be present when there is a debate."

This matter went on so intensively.

More than a dozen letters were sent out of Jinzhou in a hurry. Among them, the people who lived near Jinzhou were invited by Old Master Lian, put down everything at hand, and rushed to Old Master Lian's house on the same day.

In just three days' time, sixteen great Confucian scholars arrived here.

Similarly, Su Wenjun, who had agreed to come to the bookstore three days later, also received a message from the owner of the bookstore, and also went to the old master Lian's house, and sponsored the old master Lian's academy at his invitation.

Everyone is anxious to see this book which is said to be a natural history.

But even the old master insisted on waiting for everyone to arrive.

It's not just those who are eligible to participate directly.

Many students also gathered around after hearing the news.

After asking Su Wenjun what he meant, Old Master Lian took the initiative to extract a few small chapters, which were copied by his students and circulated among the students.

This incident seemed to be a grand gathering among Jinzhou students.

On the fifth day, even the people invited by the old master had finally gathered, and more than 20 people began to study the fragmented copy carefully.

Because it was said to be a copy at the beginning, and it was produced silently on the spot, so there was no identification of paper, ink and traces, and all energy was concentrated on the content of the book.

Comparing the content of geography and people's livelihood with clear historical records, it is speculated whether the writing in this book is in line with the era when the Natural History should be in.

Su Wenjun remembered the full version of the book, but she chose to delete it and make it into a fragment. Of course, she screened out the content that can be known.

This kind of research, even the old master had told Su Wenjun in advance, it would take half a month soon.

The research process of great Confucians is silent and serious.They need to taste and sort out their own views and insights before entering the subsequent stage of debate.

In comparison, the circulation among young students is much more lively.

It is not uncommon to argue over the use of a sentence or a word.Fortunately, they are all people of good conduct, so they won't make a move.

Zhang Sheng had just finished arguing with a classmate, and the two found that they could not convince each other, so they agreed to meet again at the same time the next day.

He also took a gamble, and as an agreement, he simply went to the library of the academy to search for content that could prove his opinion.

After finally finding a clue, Zhang Sheng immersed himself in it happily. Even though the moon was rising outside the window, he casually lit the oil lamp on the table and continued to study by the light.

In fact, there are quite a few people like him in this study room. In order to facilitate the students to read at night, there are oil lamps everywhere in the academy.

At some unknown time, someone approached Zhang Sheng and stood beside him: "Can I read this book for a while?"

Zhang Sheng was at the juncture of his study, and the visitor asked him twice before he heard it. He raised his head and frowned, and the people around him looked a bit unfamiliar, and they must not be the students of the Old Master’s Academy: “But I haven’t finished it yet. "

Generally speaking, if the previous person hasn't finished watching, few people will directly ask for it, not to mention that such behavior is very likely to interrupt other people's thinking, which is very rude.

But the visitor didn't seem to have such intentions at all. He stared straight at the book in Zhang Sheng's hand, full of longing emotions: "Let me read it for a while."

The author has something to say:

There are a lot of things in the second and third times recently, and I only have a day of salty fish on weekends... I will make up for it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow~
