Divine Reverence

Chapter 439 Old Books
Tianxing Street is the oldest street that Ye Wenji has seen since he came to Dunmo North City. This street is very long and runs north-south, running straight through the entire ancient city.Tianxing Street, like the main city of Dunmo North City, is also paved with bluestone, and there are some cracks in many places. The whole street is full of antiques and waste items.Ye Wenji was not in a hurry, and walked slowly through these shops one by one.There are shops on both sides of this street.But not many people come here.He walked for a long time and found nothing.I can't help but feel a little upset.When he casually entered a shop that bought used items, he realized that all the shops sold were books.

He stood in front of the bookshelf and glanced around with his eyes.And nothing was found. "My lord, please, what do you need? I can introduce you!" The shop owner is an old man with a gray beard, and he rushes forward to serve as soon as he sees a customer. "I'm just here for a casual stroll, just looking around, I'll call you if I need it!"

"Well, take your time. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. The books I have here are all very old and ancient books, and some books will not be found in other places." The shop owner tried his best to win over Ye Wenji. Read the book here.His books can only be bought if he has read them.

"Oh, so you have opened this store for a long time!" Ye Wenji casually flipped through the books on the shelf, and asked the owner casually.

"That's right, Dunmo North City was just a small town at that time. According to my ancestors, our family used to be a high-ranking official in Dunmo North City, but then it suddenly declined for some reason. My life is getting worse day by day. !"

Ye Wenji's heart skipped a beat. "Where is your oldest book?"

"Master, do you want to read such books?"

"Yes, the longer the better!"

"Then come with me! I'll show you the books left by my ancestors." The old man shook his head and sighed after speaking.Only then did Ye Wenji notice the sadness on the old man's face.However, he didn't want to ask too many questions, and followed the old man to the back room.This is a small study room, the surrounding walls are full of bookshelves, some yellowed books are placed in rows of grids, and a few small decorations are placed in some grids.The lattice is not big and not many, it may be the owner's favorite thing.

"Grandpa, look here, and tell me if you need anything!" After speaking, the old man shook his head, turned around and left, and came in later with a small teapot and a cup.Then he put the things down and went out again.Ye Wenji randomly picked up one, it was a brochure with a dark blue cover.The book has no name.He flipped through a few pages casually.

"Huh?" He discovered that the booklet was actually a manuscript, and it was all in Sanskrit.If he hadn't studied Sanskrit, he really wouldn't be able to understand this book.Seeing that it was in Sanskrit, his heart skipped a beat.Look carefully.Our ancestors made this world a better place.This is a sentence he saw on the first page.

"What does this sentence mean?" He frowned, not knowing what this sentence meant.Read on.The most beautiful things in the world are becoming less and less, so that our road is becoming more and more difficult.He was even more confused seeing this.Then the second page.We are searching hard and paying an unimaginable price, but every time we end up with success or failure. If this continues, we will have fewer and fewer people, and our hope will also become smaller and smaller.But there is no way, we can only keep moving forward, hoping to find that celestial road, hoping to get rid of all the darkness in front of us.But is there hope before us?

There was a land of mist, even the air was fatally dangerous, one after another disappeared there, and they never came back.Our road seems to have come to an end!
The brochure is over.For some reason, Ye Wenji suddenly felt a kind of fear after reading this booklet.The whole body is cold, and the cold air is emitted from the bones.What exactly does this pamphlet mean?
He picked up another one.Still a manuscript.Dark blue cover, no title.When he opened the book, he couldn't help being stunned. He didn't know the language, it wasn't Sanskrit, and it wasn't a current language.

"Where have you seen this writing?" He felt a sense of familiarity with this writing, but he didn't know a single word. "Ah! It's that text!" He remembered that this kind of text was exactly the words in the books that Ling'er had shown him before. He couldn't understand it at the time, and Ling Shi recited it to him. "How could this kind of text appear here?" He was a little unbelievable, unable to understand what was going on.

"Why are there so many books in different scripts and handwritings here?" He was flipping another book in his hand, but he didn't put it down again, but kept staring at it closely, no matter what. Stop watching.His heart fluctuated continuously following these paragraphs of text.This book is also written in Sanskrit, the paper is deep yellow, and there are some faint traces of flipping on it. It seems that someone has often flipped this book.

"That's it!" When he read the last page, a map was drawn on it.And the color of this last page is closer to dark yellow, and some places on the picture seem to be difficult to distinguish.He just understood a lot of things.The book in his hand is somewhat similar to an encyclopedia. The records in the book are not detailed, but he still understands a lot of things. The world of Vishnu he fell from the torrent of time and space is also a part of this , seems to have lost touch with this piece many years ago.And the book also mentioned that there are several places like this.

"No wonder, in some places there, I feel an indescribable feeling. It turns out that they are one, but they are not separated now. Why do they lose contact with each other?" When he first met Jixiang, the brothers and sisters of Jill , I found that these two people were very similar to him, except that their eyes and skin color were slightly different from his, other places were almost the same.

"No, I've been to Ling'er's hometown, so what's going on there?" He entered the eternally dark place through the gate of life and death. It's obviously not a ghost land, but the sun doesn't see it all day long. It was there that he brought Ling'er out.

"What is the origin of this bookstore, and how can there be such books!" Judging by the situation, few people come to this study.He could tell from the attitude of the shopkeeper.The store has been in decline, and it seems that it can no longer survive, and it is almost to the point of closing.Thinking of this, he put his eyes on the bookshelf again, and began to read one by one.

"This is..." In a very torn book page, he found a piece of paper made of unknown material, and there were paragraphs of Sanskrit written on it. "Haha, that's great. This is actually the next paragraph of that ancient book!" Ye Wenji was going crazy with joy.At that time, when he was cultivating, he felt that the ancient scripture should have the next paragraph, but he did not expect to get it here by accident.His harvest this time is really too great, too beyond imagination.

"Huh! That's not right. According to the upper section of the ancient scriptures last time. Why is the lower section only one page, and the materials of the two parts are different? Why?" He still had many doubts in his mind, but now This is not a place, he suppressed some thoughts for the time being.Most of the books here are written in Sanskrit, mainly describing some encyclopedias of human geography.But he still quickly read the books one by one.It turns out that this area is very large, including several continents.Some of these continents are directly connected, some are separated, and there are some small islands floating nearby.It's just that some continents and islands suddenly disappeared one day.And the world seems to have changed.In this world, all the powerful people suddenly disappeared overnight, and it is difficult for people to advance to the level of gods, as if they were tightly bound by a mysterious force!
Ye Wenji flipped through all the books here like crazy, hoping to find the answer, but in the end, he sat on the ground dejectedly and found nothing.Information on this has never emerged again. "There is nothing, all the information is here, and there is no book that can solve the mystery!"

"Is this left on purpose by someone, or something happened at that time, and there is no time to leave a record about that time!" He really wanted to know what happened at that time.But now it seems that no one knows.Even the so-called figures on the top of the tower don't know, and their cultivation bases are all banned at the rank of gods, so no one can break through. It seems that the ranks of gods have reached the highest level.No matter how hard people try and how they cultivate, they all stop here, and it is difficult to go beyond any step.

"Why is this?" He also knew it, and in this battle, he also understood it, but unfortunately there is no hope of advancing.All his strength is just constantly depositing and accumulating in his body, but he lacks the feeling that he is about to explode, as if there is always something missing. "Is it true that only by entering the Sea of ​​Miracles can we make a breakthrough? Then why don't those strong people go in by themselves, but let these young people enter it? Is there really a legendary road to heaven in the Sea of ​​Miracles? Where is it again!" Ye Wenji was sitting there in a daze.The old shopkeeper came in.Looking at the Sanskrit book in his hand, the old man was also surprised.

"Master, do you know the words on it?" The old man had an unbelievable expression on his face. "Yes, I know some, old man, I want to know where you got these books!"

"These books were collected by my ancestors. My ancestors liked to collect all kinds of books. Later, in my generation, they completely declined. You see, now I am almost at the end of my life and have to rely on buying books to survive the day. , I don’t want to, but I want to live! I want to eat too! I know I’m ashamed of my ancestors, but I can’t do anything about it. I’m really ashamed that I can’t keep what my ancestors left behind!” A heartbroken look. "Old man, do you know anything about the Sea of ​​Miracles?"

"The book also mentioned the Sea of ​​Miracles. There are countless dangers hidden there, and the lives of countless powerful people have disappeared in that sea of ​​miracles. In our Dunmo North City, countless strong people have tried to enter the Sea of ​​Miracles. I heard that there is a celestial path in the Sea of ​​Miracles, if you find the celestial path, you might be able to get rid of the shackles imposed on you." Ye Wenji also knew what the old man said, and it seemed that it was impossible to know some news from the old man.

"Then I'll buy these books!" Ye Wenji pointed to the few books he had chosen. "Okay, I'll pack it for you!" The old man smiled, Ye Wenji gave him a lot of money, and his life has been settled for a while now.

"Old man, take this money. If there are any old books in the future, I will buy them. This money will be used as a deposit!" Before Ye Wenji left, he left a large sum of money for the old man, enough for the old man's future life .When the old man wanted to say something, Ye Wenji's figure had disappeared.He understands the value of those books, and he hopes that the old man will have no worries about food and clothing in his future life, which can be regarded as a kind of respect to his ancestors.Since then, the business of the old man's shop has improved.People always come to him to buy things, and he doesn't know that everything is because of this young man today.
