Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1312 Crazy behavior
  Because 99% of the books in the library are bamboo slips, and the remaining 1% are silk, and there are almost no paper books.

First of all, paper is really not cheap, and not all scholars can afford it. Even the internal teaching of Xiaoshengxian Village mostly uses bamboo slips.

Secondly, the birth of paper has not been many years ago, and the previous classics of the sages could only use bamboo slips. Bamboo slips are strong and can naturally be preserved in large quantities.

Thirdly, except for the extremely wealthy, most people are generally unwilling to use paper to compile books.

Knowledge in this era is very expensive, and books, as the body that carries knowledge, are naturally cherished. Most families would like to have a book as an heirloom if they have one. Most of the classics are trivial and need to be read repeatedly to fully understand them. In the process, serious wear and tear is inevitable.

When scholars write or copy books, they do so with the goal that a book will be passed down to three generations and the book will still be there when people leave. Naturally, fragile paper is not the first choice.

Therefore, the many books handed down from our ancestors collected by Xiaoshengxian Manor are naturally bamboo slips.

By the way, in recent years, the new students of Xiaoshengxian Village rarely come to the library to study in their free time.

It's not that they are not good at learning, but because only a small part of these tablets are written in Qin seal script, and the rest are in the languages ​​of previous countries.

What they are learning now is Qin Xiaozhuan, which is very difficult to read.

Back to the topic, after Xunzi came in, he went straight to the miscellaneous books area with a clear goal.

He rarely read this kind of books in the past and was not particularly interested in them.

But today he came here for this purpose, naturally to find a way to cure Tianming.

During this period of time, he had read through all the serious books on medicine in the library. It cannot be said that there was no gain at all, he could only say that it was useless!
  Of course, the result of finding nothing is not unrelated to the fact that there are too few such books.

Those in the medical field only know how to pass on traditional medicine from master to apprentice, and few are willing to compile medical pharmacology into books - most of the few medical books are related to Gu Xun and Nianduan.

With no serious way to go, Xunzi could only try to find some folk remedies.

Xunzi had never looked down on such miscellaneous books in the past - it wasn't that he thought they were useless, but that they were of little use. Wouldn't it be nice to read more classics when you have time?
  Now for the sake of dawn, there is really no choice.

Fortunately, when the library was built and the books were collected, Confucianism adhered to the principle that there was no principle, and all the books were collected in it. If the temperament of serious Confucian students were followed, there would probably be no such miscellaneous book area - although there is no principle, it is too The vulgar (you know) category is still not accepted.

Although this kind of book collection is rich enough, Xunzi is still not sure of finding a reliable method, he just does his best to obey fate.

………………

The gate of Xiaoshengxian Village.

After delivering the meal as usual, Shi Lan carried the food box and walked on the roadside towards the bottom of the mountain as usual.

Behind a tree on the roadside, a sneaky figure was hiding, and at the same time, he peeked out at Shi Lan.

Shi Lan, who was wearing a clerk's clothes and had a frustrated look on his face, hesitated again and again, then stopped and looked at the tree.

She didn't really care about being spied on, especially when she knew the person well, but it didn't matter if there was always a sneaky tail following her!
  After that night, this guy always liked to stare at her from behind, which was really uncomfortable!

Feeling Shi Lan's burning eyes, the person behind the tree scratched his head in embarrassment and walked out.

Needless to say, this person is naturally Shao Yu.

Ever since he ran away under the moon that night, his heart had been completely captured by the goddess Shi Lan. In addition, he was also thinking about Shi Lan's information about mirages, so Yu Li started to follow the crazy man's business. However, his skills were not very good, and Shang still had a bit of shame, so he frequently made mistakes, and Shi Lan discovered them almost from the beginning.

Looking at the rustic-dressed goddess, Shao Yu smiled awkwardly and raised his hand to say hello, "Good morning, Shi Lan, what a coincidence!"

Under the thick bangs, Shi Lan's deliberately glazed eyes stared closely at Shao Yu, and responded without emotion, "It's past noon now."

"Uh..." Shao Yu grinned and hesitantly changed his words, "Then... how about noon?"

"What on earth do you want to do!?" Shi Lan immediately didn't want to talk to this idiot, but she didn't want to let him follow her anymore, so she just got to the point.

"Well... let me ask you something." After hesitating for a moment, Shao Yu simply put the question aside and asked directly, "Are you from the ancient Shu tribe?"

After saying that, maybe because he was afraid of being rejected by the goddess or being deceived, Shaoyu couldn't wait to ask and answer himself:

"Actually, I know even if you don't tell me, you are from the ancient Shu tribe!"

"The clothes you wore that night had the characteristics of the Shu region, and your movements were strong and neat. It should be the leaping fighting technique passed down from generation to generation in the ancient Shu tribe!"

"It is said to be more agile than an ape, and more powerful than a tiger or leopard in its fists, kicks, and movements!"

As Shao Yu said this, he also made two gestures, punching and kicking. It was obvious that he was working very hard.

Shi Lan looked a little dazed after hearing this.

In the mouth of the young man opposite, their fighting skills in Shushan seemed to be amazing. However, in the battle of the fall of Shushan, facing several masters of the Yin-Yang family, the masters in the tribe had no power to fight back. They relied on the power of Yu Yuan to survive. Compete with the other party.

Coupled with the new martial arts she recently came into contact with...

She doesn't want to belittle Shushan's martial arts, but the gap is really too big, it's like a trick!

In fact, it was Shi Lan who misjudged. Shushan's flying fighting skills were not as good as those above, but more than enough compared to those below. For most Jianghu people, it was already extremely precious and advanced martial arts - Shao Yu learned it from Fan Zeng. Martial arts come from military strategists, and it can be said that they have little experience in this aspect, and they are not much different from ordinary people in the world.

As for the profound Yin Yang arts that are famous for their power compared with those of the Yin Yang family, or even compared with the Seven Swords martial arts, they are certainly not worth mentioning.

If you compare these two things, you can't find a few people who are on the stage even if you search all over the country?
  With half memories and half emotions in her mind, Shi Lan quickly came back to her senses, looked at Shao Yu who was laughing with him, and replied coldly:

"Now that you know everything, why are you asking me?"

"Stop following me!"

After saying that, Shi Lan stopped paying attention to this silly fool and was about to leave with her food box in hand.

"Hey!" Upon seeing this, Shao Yu quickly stretched out his right hand, assumed a complacent posture, and shouted, "I also want to ask you why you investigated the mirage!"

When Shi Lan heard him shouting, her face became a little gloomier.

This person is definitely here to cause trouble!
  Can such a thing be shouted out in public? ?
  Fortunately, there was no one at the entrance of the academy at this time, otherwise Shi Lan would have wanted to kill Shao Yu.
