Chapter 5 Four-in-One Library

A Xiu lived alone in Haixin Mountain. Like a wild child in the countryside, he didn't pay attention to dressing up. Guan Xiaoshan was in a hurry, and he didn't pay attention to dressing up and went on the road with the fox spirit. Along the way, he was pressed into the West Sea, into the grass, and into the soil; in addition to a mass of dust and mud, there were seven or eight blood marks on his face. It looks like it, but he doesn't know.

The scolding of the cloth shop made Guan Xiaoshan annoyed and ashamed, but he had no choice. I remember that when he came, he passed a small bridge with a river under it; after escaping from the cloth shop, he went straight to the bridge.

In the cold winter, the river was covered with a thick layer of ice. Guan Xiaoshan hid under the bridge and smashed an ice hole with a hunting knife. Regardless of the coldness of the river, he squatted on the edge of the ice hole and rubbed his clothes, hair and the old man's face. After being busy for half an hour and feeling better, he stepped on the commercial street again. While looking for a job to earn crystals from door to door, he inquired about all kinds of local information.

The result of the application is very disappointing. Guan Xiaoshan couldn't even find a suitable job in two restaurants and four grocery stores. Not to mention earning crystals, even if he doesn't want a salary, he can't find the job of eating and living. When several shops come down, his only gain is that he has a certain understanding of Kunlun City.

It's not easy to live in Kunlun City.

If you want to find a paid job in Kunlun City, you must be a senior technician and a mage; a mage who is a beginner in magic, inferior to a mage, and a junior and intermediate technicians can only find a job that is in charge of food and accommodation and does not pay. As Guan Xiaoshan has no skills, not a mage, and no crystal, it is almost impossible to stay in Kunlun City. Guan Xiaoshan is not without skills, but the spiritual world is based on Reiki. Social development follows the road of Reiki research and application. The skills in the human world are not very useful here, and there is no place for him as a graduate student. What's more annoying is that the human feelings in Kunlun City are extremely cold. He met either a sharp and mean person or a cold and indifferent person along the way. Don't think about such a thing with the help of kind-hearted people.

Guan Xiaoshan continued to walk forward with a cold face. At this time, a smelting workshop appeared on the left side of the road. A kind-looking old craftsman seemed to have leisure. He sat at the door and squinted and basked in the sun. He looked at the simple room, but did not dare to mention the job. He leaned over and said, "Old man, I'm idle--" and chatted with the old craftsman. Home.

"Kunlun City is a blessed place, and everyone thinks of it, so, hey hey--" The old craftsman opened the conversation happily.

Kunlun City is the safest under the protection of the great god; this is the biggest reason why human beings in Kunlun Prefecture come together. In addition, there is another important reason.

Kunlun City is close to Yaochi. Although the aura is not as abundant as the divine world, it is also a first-class blessing in Kunlun Prefecture. The blessed land is originally a no-owner's land, and anyone can move here. The blessed land is limited, but the people who move here are unlimited. Everyone wants to live in the central city closest to Yaochi, which will lead to a fight. The result of the fight can only be whose fist belongs to whom. The biggest fist in Kunlun Prefecture is the gods, and Kunlun City has become the territory of the gods.

The great god is an advanced person, with parents, brothers and family members. After becoming a god, it is both a responsibility and an obligation to move the family to a blessed place. There are many great gods in Kunlun Prefecture. In order to occupy the land of the family, there will also be a dispute between the great god and the great god. The result of the dispute between the great gods is more tragic. They call friends and fight against the enemy. After a big war, dozens of great gods often fall.

This situation has greatly damaged the vitality of the pross in Kunlun Prefecture. The God of Knowledge was worried that the situation would be worse, so he united to discuss a solution. The result of the discussion is: with the three peaks of heaven, earth and people closest to Yaochi as the center, 72 peaks are designated as the divine world, and the divine world is the god's cultivation land; Kunlun City at the foot of the mountain is the human world, which is rented out to the divine descendants to stay, and the divine descendants need to pay a certain amount of crystals in the divine world every year as management fees. To this end, the divine world has set up a subordinate organization - Linchen The pavilion is responsible for managing and protecting the human world and collecting crystals. Outside the Linchen Pavilion, the gods of the divine world cannot interfere with the human world privately, let alone intervene in the disputes between the descendants of the family.

Linchen Pavilion has three elders; the three pavilions are great gods who need to practice and do not like to take care of trivial matters in the human world. They also set up a Fengtian Mansion in Linchen. The Fengtian Mansion is composed of gods and warriors. At first, it was only responsible for collecting crystal rent and protecting Kunlun City. Later, there are more and more things managed. Kunlun City's Enlightenment education, taxation, planning, etc. are all under its jurisdiction.

Crystals are necessary to promote cultivation. For the divine world, the most important thing is crystals. The more the number, the better. Linchen Pavilion and Fengtianfu naturally regard the collection of crystals as the top priority. This mentality extends from top to bottom to the whole Kunlun City, and finally forms all the atmosphere of crystals. Crystals represent wealth, status, and the right to live in the blessed land. As long as there are enough crystals, ordinary people can buy the industrial manor of the gods, and even take the fallen gods as slaves.

The huge demand makes the value of crystals more and more difficult to earn. Ordinary people are poor in their lives and it is difficult to earn enough crystals to buy a house in the central city, let alone expensive schools to study. It is often based on the long-term, and the first generation works hard for the second generation to save enough crystals to become senior technicians; senior technicians work hard all their lives in Kunlun City to save enough for the third generation to complete psychic enlightenment education and mage. The crystals needed for training. Even if ordinary people become mages, they will not only have a glimmer of hope to become gods, but also earn a lot of crystals and lay a more solid foundation for the next generation of cultivation. The whole plan requires the unremitting efforts of three generations. If it is not smooth, it may take four or even five or even five or six generations.

"God - on the top of the mountain, very close, but out of reach. Blessed land - just under your feet, there are a few more that you can feel. The old craftsman was quite impressed. He ended his life with a long sigh and went into the house to work.

Since then, Guan Xiaoshan has completely realized his predicament. He did not intend to give up. He just put aside unrealistic fantasies and readjusted his goal - he was not in a hurry to practice. He wanted to find an apprentice to learn to do it first and try to stay in Kunlun City to find opportunities.

I was impressed by the kindness of my husband and craftsman. Next, Guan Xiaoshan went to the workshop shop run by the elderly and asked about the work of food and accommodation. I don't know whether it was bad luck or whether the old craftsman was originally an alien from Kunlun City. He met eight old shopkeepers in a row, but none of them had the patience to listen to him. They were lazy and directly waved him out.

When the sun set, he followed the road to a mid-mountain square. This seems to be the highest place in Kunlun City. Although there is a spiraling path in front of it, a wooden board is erected in the middle of the road, with the words "The mortals stop".

Guan Xiaoshan didn't dare to go up again and turned his head to the square.

The square is very large, especially rare in Kunlun City, which is an inch of land and an inch of gold. The surrounding buildings are also very grand. There are two gates in the east side by side. Each gate is nearly two feet wide, and many young men and women in simple clothes go in and out. There are also two gates in the west, which are wider and more magnificent than the one in the east. The people who go in and out of these two gates are also older. The small ones are in their early twenties, and the older ones are thirty or forty years old, and their clothes are also much brighter.

A black plaque is hung in the middle of each of the four gates, with large gold characters on the plaque. The two in the east are "Kunlun Psychic Enlightenment School" and "Kunlun Mage Training School", and the two in the west are "Kunlun Pre-God Training Institute" and "Kunlun Zhenwu Research Institute".

Seeing the big words on the forehead of the plaque, Guan Xiaoshan's heart trembled, and his breath suddenly became heavy. Judging from today's inquest, this is his original goal - the place to learn spells. The goal is right in front of you, but it is out of reach like the world - there is a team of samurai guards with guns and knives on each side of the four gates.

"Crystal!!!"

Guan Xiaoshan took a breath and turned his eyes to the opposite of the square. There was only a four-story wooden building opposite. The wooden building is built against the mountain. It is not large in scale, but it is very exquisite and simple. There is also a large plaque hanging on the lintel on the first floor, and there are six ginal characters of "Four Schools in One Library".

"Four-in-one library?"

Guan Xiaoshan's eyes flashed and slowly over.

The library seems to be very deserted. There are two bookshelves on the inner wall of the bottom lobby, on which there are a lot of books, but there is no one in front of the bookshelf, and there is no seat for people to sit and read. There are some debris piled up on the left side of the lobby, and the right side is a wooden staircase. There is a large bookcase on the side of the wooden stairs, and a young fat man sitting on the book. After the case was big, he was like an administrator; he was immersed in reading a book, and his body did not move, and the mud fetus puppet was fascinated.

The fat man has always given the impression of generosity, and the fat man is not very old, about 20 years old; Guan Xiaoshan was bolder and walked in gently. The fat administrator didn't notice it and still immersed himself in reading. He pondered for a moment, and then walked decisively to the bookshelf.

"Psychic - Starting from enlightenment", "Thousand-character text", "Overview of the geography of the spiritual world", "Hundred surnames", "Precautions for enlightenment", "Guidance of enlightenment steps", "Cultation of mind and nature".

The names of the variety of books flashed in front of him. Guan Xiaoshan felt that his heartbeat was about to stop. The books on the bookshelf seemed to weigh ten thousand pounds in his heart, which made him breathless. A strong possessiveness came up from the bottom of his heart. He raised his right hand uncontrollably...

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and several people entered the building talking and laughing. Guan Xiaoshan suppressed his impulse and wandered in front of the bookshelf pretending to browse the title of the book, while paying attention to the movement of the fat administrator with his spare light.

Two men and one woman came in, both in their twenties, and the three walked to the big bookcase of the fat administrator.

"Ming Fatty, from the training institute... Here, this is the famous emblem. This is the book I borrowed last time. The three of them surrounded the bookcase and handed over the badges to prove their identity and the books to be returned one by one.

"Oh - wait, I'm going to cancel the record - hey, Master Bai Mang, how to pronounce this word? What does it mean?" The fat administrator, known as 'Ming Fatty', agreed, but pointed out the book in his hand to the three people, as if asking for advice.

"This is the tail, the tail of the tail, and the tail is the last part of the spine, do you understand?"

"Oh. Got it. What about this word?"

"This is Li. The Ligou point is on the inside of your calf."

"Well - thank you."

"Thank you for your bullshit. Hurry up and cancel the formalities. Don't linger." I don't know whether it's impatience or a familiar joke. As they spoke, the tone of the three became evil.

"Good! OK! Just come..." The fat man responded incessantly and began to be in a hurry. He opened the drawer, looked for the book, and then turned over and sketched it for a long time. Then he took three green jade clips and handed them over and said, "No - remember the clip, go up."

The three took the green jade clip and went upstairs with a smile. The fat man was relieved and sat down. He buried himself in reading again, but did not look at Guan Xiaoshan.

Guan Xiaoshan's eyes and one michi, no longer hesitate, quietly reach to his right hand to grasp the "Guide to the Steps of Opening". He fell in for three books. As long as he got the book, even if he couldn't go to school, he believed that with his own hard work, he could succeed in self-study.

When his fingers touched the smooth paper, Guan Xiaoshan slowly turned his head and stared at Ming Fatty. At the same time, he pinched the corner of the book with his right hand and gently and carefully pulled it out...
