Chapter 22 What Libraries Are Really For

"I've read your Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Unless you rewrite a new novel to make the characters in your novel have extraordinary powers, you should follow me and manage this library honestly. You can reflect the characters , There is no fighting power at all!" said the person sitting opposite Liu Xu.

It's hard to imagine that this tall, muscular middle-aged man is actually the director of a library, a man of culture.

In the early morning of the second day, Liu Xu arrived at the Academy of Arts, an hour earlier than the official work time.

But in the end, when Liu Xu entered the library to work, he was half an hour late, because the security robot at the entrance of the Academy of Arts would not let Liu Xu enter the Academy of Arts at all. Liu Xu was brought in.

"This is the key to the library. You are finally here. With you, I can sleep for a few more hours!" The curator said happily, and opened the door of the library at the same time.

It was already ten o'clock in the morning, and the signboard at the entrance of the library said that the opening time of the library was 9:30 in the morning, but fortunately, there were no students queuing up at the entrance of the library.

In other words, the entrance was unusually deserted, and the entire library was also in the most remote corner of the College of Arts, which was completely different from another world where there were a lot of students crowded in the university library every day.

But thinking about it, when all the novels are placed in the library and can be read directly with a mobile phone, I really don’t understand the meaning and value of the library. The only thing left is probably the paper books. It's a ritual.

Afterwards, the curator began to explain the work to Liu Xu. These tasks were not too complicated, that is, arriving at the library at 9:00 every morning and doing all kinds of preparations.

Open the door on time at 9:30, and then take charge of arranging, returning, placing, counting and a series of sundries in the library. Well, Liu Xu is responsible for almost all the things in the library up.

Such a huge amount of work made Liu Xu's brows furrowed, especially when he heard his curator's evaluation of his Romance of the Three Kingdoms, his brows became even more furrowed!

"What? Do you have any questions?" Seeing Liu Xu's appearance, the curator narrowed his eyes and asked.

"A little bit!" Liu Xu nodded, and after hesitating for a while, he asked, "Director, why can't we see a single table or chair in our library?"

"Eh..." Hearing Liu Xu's question, the curator said with a strange expression, "Why are there tables and chairs in the library? Are you planning to let people in to read?"

"Eh..." Liu Xu was stunned for a moment, isn't the library for reading books?
Of course, Liu Xu has already realized that there may be some differences between the library of this world and the library of the earth, so he decisively shut his mouth to save himself from asking any stupid questions.

"That's right, you're not a student of the Academy of Arts, and many wild contract writers don't know about this kind of thing, so it's not surprising that you have such a problem!" Instead, the curator took the initiative to think of the reason for Liu Xu, and then explained Said, "I know that in most of the novels, the library is a place for people to read books. You probably read these novels before thinking that the library is open for people to read."

"But these are the ignorant imaginations of wild authors, because real libraries are places where books are locked!"

"Block the books??" Liu Xu tried to pretend to be calm as much as possible, but his eyes still betrayed the shock deep in his heart.

"Yes, although this truth sounds a bit cruel, it is the truth!" The curator said lightly, "This world does not need too many books, let alone too much knowledge and wisdom, so any books that have nothing to do with novels , everything will be sealed in the library!"

"Why?" Liu Xu couldn't help asking.

"Because we want to maintain and save this world!" The curator said blankly, "Books other than novels are either extremely boring, or allow readers to understand a lot of things other than novels, so that their wisdom begins to grow and their thinking changes. Expansive, thinking full of logic, looking at things will become proud and critical."

"Isn't that good?" Liu Xu asked subconsciously.

"Of course it's not good!" The curator couldn't help but sneered. "Do you think that if everyone grows in wisdom, thinks broadly, and likes logic and dialectics, then how many readers will still be able to read the novels in the library?"

"Eh..." Liu Xu didn't speak.

"Let's take your teacher Luo as an example. The famous work and the only novel that is qualified to reflect it is called "The Best Sword in the Village is the Sacred Sword of Slaughter". If you read the title of the book, you will immediately lose interest in reading this novel!"

"After all, for you who can write "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the protagonist of this book can get the magic weapon with 1 words, the princess's favor with 3 words, and sweep the battlefield with the holy sword in 10 words. He used 4 forbidden spells but didn't use any of them, so he had to fight with weapons. The 16-year-old protagonist can use some lame so-called wisdom to play around with a group of 61-year-old old foxes, and finally found out that his Dad is the God of Light, my mother is the God of Darkness, and he himself is the novel of the Son of Light and Darkness, I am afraid he will vomit blood after reading tens of thousands of words!"

"Eh..." Liu Xu stopped talking. In fact, as long as he saw a book with a title of more than 7 characters, he would immediately throw it aside.

Why is it 7 characters?Because "this novel is very healthy".

"You are such a smart person, if I get to this point, you should understand why the books are blocked!" The curator asked back, Liu Xu nodded, and said naturally, "It turns out that it is to lower the mind!"

"Intellectualization?" The curator savored this brand-new term, then nodded and said, "That's right, it's just to imbue the world with intelligence, otherwise you won't be able to read novels like your teacher's."

"More than 90% of the contracted authors in this world write stuff like that, so 90% of the readers in the world must read it with gusto, and even enjoy it, otherwise these 90% of the contracted authors will not be able to get it." God-given text, then our world has long been destroyed under the reflection of the world!"

"Of course, these methods are not completely useful. The more books a reader reads, the better his taste will be. In the end, he will not want to read those garbage novels full of blood."

"And these people just happened to become your readers, which is why you were able to break the world record. For these people, finding a book like The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is full of various complexities, details, and at the same time. There are no flaws in logic, forming exquisite theoretical closed loops one after another, and novels that exist like a real world are really too rare!"

"Zhuo, if you don't write novels in the future, how will we readers live!" Well, the last sentence was said by the curator himself, but Liu Xu didn't hear it.

"..." Liu Xu stopped talking. Although this logic is very fucked up, and at the same time, it is definitely the worst way to lower the intelligence of all the people in the world, but I have to admit that this is also the way to save the world. After all, you don't It may be required that most of the contracted authors write works that appeal to both refined and popular tastes.

"However, all of us are very clear about these books. Only a wide range of books can make human society develop to a higher level. If there are only novels, then we humans will be unable to move forward. This is just a compromise to deal with the reflection of the world right now. " said the curator.

"I understand that books are the ladder of human progress!" Liu Xu nodded.

"Hey, don't just pop out a sentence that is better than what I, the curator, can't say?" The curator knocked Liu Xu on the head, "In the future, our world will inevitably leave this world full of dimensional rifts." Returning to a safe void with no neighbors, we will no longer need a profession like a contracted author, and these books can once again help mankind move forward."

"But right now, these books can only stay here, banned by the library, but at the same time they are also protected until the day he can spread them all over the world!"
