Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Chapter 15 History Books Past Doubts of Shen's Mother

As the sun rose, the number of vehicles and pedestrians on the road gradually increased. After breakfast, Li Zhongwu, who was wandering aimlessly along the street and observing the city, finally stopped.

He summoned the task interface twice in his mind, but still didn't get any response.

This let him know that for the rest of his life, he might really die of old age in this new world.

The first task before him is to understand the world as quickly as possible.

He let out a sigh of relief with a complex expression, turned around and walked back, towards the bookstore he had seen last night.

What else can understand a new world faster than reading history books?

About half an hour later, he found the bookstore.

——Yushufang.

These three characters are the store name embossed on the signboard of the bookstore.

Li Zhongwu glanced at it, and walked into the bookstore calmly. After entering the door, he did not take off the baseball cap on his head and the sunglasses on his face.

This bookstore seems to have only one floor.

After entering the door, you can see rows of wooden bookshelves in the hall at a glance. On the bookshelves, there are brand new books.

The bookstore probably just opened for business at this time, and there was no customer in the store, only a cashier sitting behind the checkout counter, and two women in their 40s and [-]s were restocking and organizing the bookshelves.

The young woman behind the cashier saw Li Zhongwu coming in, gave him a smile, looked at his sunglasses, and didn't say hello.

Li Zhongwu glanced at her and walked straight to the bookshelves without asking any questions.

Because he was wearing sunglasses and because the lights in the bookstore were not turned on, his vision was limited and he couldn't see the words on the small wooden signs on the bookshelf.

Seeing that there were not many people in the store, Li Zhongwu frowned, and took off his sunglasses casually.

Then he saw the words on the small wooden signs.

——"Ancient Books Area", "Masterpieces Area", "Law Area", "Literary Area", "Skills Area", "Science Area", "Theology Area"...

Li Zhongwu searched for a while before he found the small wooden sign of the "Cultural History District" that should have history books.

So, he strode over there.

When he passed the ancient books section, he saw several copies of "Tao Te Ching", "Huang Di Nei Jing", and "Tang Poetry and Song Ci" on the bookshelf.

When passing the skill area, he glanced casually and saw several book titles - "Introduction to Forging Techniques", "Nine Weaving Methods of Handmade Sweaters", "22 Flower Planting Techniques", "Basic Woodworking Techniques"... …

When he passed the theology area, he also caught a glimpse of several book titles - "Research on the Authenticity of Ancient Taoist Gods", "The Significance of the Existence of Ancient Religions", "Conjectures on the Causes of Ancient Buddhist Rebooting".

Needless to say, these titles are quite interesting.

If he had nothing else to do, he might be really interested in reading how those books studied ancient religions.

However, he just wanted to find the history books of this world as soon as possible.

Soon, he came to the literature and history area.

On the bookshelf, there are new books that smell of ink.

He glanced over, and the titles of books came into his eyes.

——"The Great Event of Yan", "Famous Articles of the Number One Scholar in the Past Dynasties", "The Customs and Customs of Shenfeng Country", "History of the Rise and Fall of the Galen Empire"...

In front of the bookshelves, Li Zhongwu walked slowly forward, while slowly scanning the titles of a book on the bookshelves on both sides with his eyes.

After seven or eight minutes, he finally found a few history books he wanted.

A "Brief History of Mankind" Volume [-].

The second volume of "A Brief History of Mankind".

There is also a copy of "The Great Yan Dynasty".

He stopped, reached out and took down the first volume of "A Brief History of Mankind", turned to the catalog page, and saw that there was only one title about ancient times on the catalog page - ancient legends.

Starting from the title of the second catalog, it is the Daxia Dynasty established by the emperor in the early Yuan Dynasty.

Li Zhongwu roughly browsed through the catalog, and then reached out and pulled out the second volume of "A Brief History of Humanity" on the bookshelf.

Still flipping through the catalog first, after a few glances, he stretched out his hand and pulled out "The Great Yan Dynasty".

Not long after, he took the three books to the cashier to check out and left.

When going out, he put on sunglasses again.

Since some strangers could recognize him as the person who "saved" Da Su and Xiao Su last night when he was eating at the breakfast shop this morning, he must act appropriately if he does not want to be recognized by more people. cover up.

After leaving the bookstore, he took the three history books and walked along the street for half an hour. When he saw a park-like garden beside the road, he walked in.

When he entered, he saw two large red characters engraved on a stone at the entrance—Jinghu.

Not long after entering, he saw a lake as smooth as a mirror.

There are many flowers and trees planted by the lake, as well as a bamboo forest.

Li Zhongwu randomly found a deserted lakeside, sat down on a big rock, then bowed his head and began to read the first volume of "A Brief History of Humanity".

Time passed quietly as he turned the pages of the book from time to time.

There was a cool breeze blowing by the lake from time to time. At first, the breeze made him quite comfortable, but as the sun rose higher and higher in the sky and the temperature continued to rise, the breeze blowing from the lake gradually ceased to give him a sense of comfort.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Li Zhongwu finally felt hot.

Only then did his attention temporarily leave the book, he looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, and then looked down at the black suit he was wearing. He took off the suit casually, put it aside, picked up the book and continued reading.

In other words, when he was a student in the original time and space, his academic performance was still acceptable.

He was admitted to high school with his ability, and he was also admitted to university with his ability.

Therefore, reading and studying is not difficult for him, and he also has some experience.

For example: When reading a book, you must concentrate on it.

This habit, he has long developed in the student days.

It stands to reason that he, who studied so seriously and assiduously in the original time and space, should have a bright future and a happy life. There is no reason to be dissatisfied with the real world, and there is no reason to abandon everything and choose to enter the mysterious and unpredictable world. The world of reincarnation.

but……

Have you heard of post-80s?

In the original time and space, he is a sad post-80s, and he is also a post-80s from a poor family.

His parents are illiterate who can't even write their own names.

When he was studying, reading was no longer free.

When he graduated, the state had just abolished job assignments.

When he was working, the state canceled the welfare housing.

When he was approaching the age of marriage, the house price soared to a level that he could only look up to.

Prices and wedding gifts also soared together...

Almost all such unlucky things were caught up by him.

Just like a joke says: this year the first graders clean the whole school, next year the second graders clean the whole school, and the next year the third graders do the cleaning... It seems fair, but the same group of students are always cleaning.

As a post-80s generation, he was deeply hurt by it, and he could always feel the malice towards him from the whole era.

But, even so, he is still living hard, studying hard, and working hard, hoping that he can be the pride of his parents, and that he can be worthy of the years of hard work of his parents in cultivating him.

Until he suddenly found out that he was terminally ill.

Fate is coming soon.

At this moment, in his sleep, he heard a voice asking him—"Do you want to cure your illness?"

Hearing this question in his dream, he subconsciously replied: "Of course!"

Then the voice in the dream asked again: "Then how much are you willing to pay for this?"

He replied: "All costs!"

……

Just like that, when he woke up, he had inexplicably entered a martial arts world, and when he opened his eyes, he saw an illusory task interface, and a main task was issued to him.

Since then, his life has completely changed.

He no longer needs to save money to buy a house, nor does he need to save money to marry a wife, nor does he have to work overtime almost every day for a few taels of money.

Speaking of which, it has been a long time since he read a book as seriously as today.

Time goes by.

At noon, Li Zhongwu heard the sound of protesting from his stomach. With a thought, he had an extra piece of bread in his hand. After taking a few bites, the bread disappeared. He had a bottle of pure water in his hand. The piece of bread that I just ate a few bites of.

He didn't go to a restaurant for lunch.

He only used the stored food and drinking water in his portable space to fill his stomach at will. During this period, his eyes never left the "A Brief History of Humanity" in his hand.

In the afternoon, he was still sitting by the lake reading a book.

After watching the sunset, he finally finished the first volume of "A Brief History of Mankind".

The moment he closed the book, he closed his tired eyes, and simply sorted out and summarized the general content of the book in his mind.

The history of the dynasties involved in this book surprised him to discover that every change of dynasties in this new world was almost due to someone researching new things from the ruins excavated in ancient times.

Sometimes it's because of the research of new weapons.

Sometimes it is because of the research of a new art of war.

The most bizarre change of dynasty turned out to be because someone unearthed the ancient religious teachings inscribed on stone slabs, and then used that set of teachings to develop believers in reality, and then subverted the entire country, and finally achieved the achievement of changing the dynasty.

……

Li Zhongwu closed his eyes for a long time, and when he opened them again, he couldn't help sighing.

Feeling in my heart: The development and progress of this new world and the succession of dynasties are all based on archaeology. No wonder many things in this new world are so similar to the 21st century.

……

night time.

Movie Metropolis Prosperity Inn, Shen Xiaoling from the crew of "Princess Ruyun" came back from work. She was Li Zhongwu who came to this new world last night. In the lobby of this inn, she was the first person who took the initiative to talk to him.

This morning, when Li Zhongwu came out of the room, he happened to meet her and her mother.

At this time, after finishing her day's work, she was somewhat tired and relaxed, walking briskly, humming a little song, and pushed open the door of Room 407.

This is her room.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw her mother in cleaner clothes sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, frowning slightly, looking in a bad mood.

Shen Xiaoling was quite surprised to see her, because she rarely saw her mother look like this.

Immediately, he walked over with some doubts, reached out and patted his mother on the shoulder, and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking?"

Shen's mother was taken aback, she came back to her senses, saw her daughter, she couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said: "Are you saying it's strange, I clearly remembered that I cleaned room 422 the day before yesterday, why did the room look dirty when a guest checked in today? The place is messy, the quilt is not folded properly, there is still rubbish in the bedside table and trash can? Alas, I guess I remember wrongly, the manager has already warned me about this matter today, and I will be deducted 200 gold What about the salary! Alas, it seems that my mother is really old, this memory..."

Shen's mother shook her head and sighed while talking, her expression was very depressed.
