Chapter 6 Librarian
The book didn't move.
Guan Xiaoshan adds a little strength and then draws.
The book doesn't move at all.
Guan Xiaoshan was a little flustered, and he added some strength and pumped again.
The book is still motionless. Not only that, the whole book gives Guan Xiaoshan the feeling of an iron pillar, which is not only heavy, but also strong, and there is no sign of loosening.
Ming Pangzi was still looking down and reading. He didn't find the movement here. Guan Xiaoshan moved his right hand, gave up the book "Guide to the Steps of Enlightenment" and moved to the book "Psychic - Starting from Enlightenment".
At this time, someone came in again. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he let go helplessly.
A young warrior came in with neat clothes. The young warrior did not pay attention to Guan Xiaoshan. He went through the formalities in front of the case and taught the fat man to recognize two words, so he went straight upstairs.
Next, it seemed to be the lively time of the library. As soon as the warrior went up, there were two people coming in. Guan Xiaoshan lingerred in front of the bookshelf for a long time, but there was no good opportunity. Seeing that it was getting dark outside, he was worried that the library would close, so he ventured to draw a book.
With his right hand, he grabbed "Psychic - Starting from the Enlightenment" and pulled the force. This book was the same as the last book. It took root and couldn't be pulled at all. Move to "Precautions for enlightenment" and draw again, and the result is still the same.
Guan Xiaoshan realized that something was wrong and began to draw it one after another along the bookshelf. "Thousands of Characters" - not moving, "Overview of the Geography of the Spiritual World" - not moving, "Hundred Family Names" - not moving, "Cultivating the Mind" - did not move. It is obvious that the books in the library are imprisoned by unknown means, and people can't get them without complaint.
Guan Xiaoshan suddenly became irritable. The cold eyes and disappointment he had received since entering Kunlun City seemed to have been triggered at this moment. For a moment, he wished he could set fire and burn the book in front of him. After all, he didn't dare to attack and could only endure himself in front of the bookshelf. At the same time, he found that he was not the only one who was upset, and there was another person, the administrator Ming Fatty.
Ming Fatty seems to like reading, but there are many people who come and go to borrow books and return books. It is difficult for him to have time to read. Even if he is free for a while, it is difficult for him to return to his state of distraction immediately. Therefore, he looks more irritable than Guan Xiaoshan. He can't help muttering and dissatisfied with the current situation.
tong tong wa——
There was a sound of footsteps on the stairs, and a man took a book and came down from it. Ming Fatty, please register, this is the book I borrowed this time; this is the memory folder, here you - where's my name emblem. The man said and handed over a book with the green jade clip.
The fat man took the green jade clip with a calm face, rummaged through the drawer for a while, took out a metal brand emblem, and after registering with the name above, he returned the emblem to the man.
The man took the famous emblem and went out of the library with the book. The fat man sat down and was ready to continue reading. There was another sound of footsteps upstairs. Someone came down, and the book he had just opened had to be put down.
There were a lot of people going downstairs. Those who just went upstairs found the books to borrow and left one after another. The fat man was clumsy and couldn't handle it quickly, and the people who went through the formalities finally lined up on the stairs.
The fat man's face became more and more gloomy; when the last person left, his patience seemed to reach the limit. He closed the book with a bang and shouted hysterically, "What the hell! If it goes on like this, you will become a fart god!!! Ah-ah-ah-ah-" The two fists alternately smashed the book case fiercely: the pen, ink and inkstone on the book case were jumping around.
This man has a small nose and small eyes, plus two pieces of fat meat on his cheeks. Originally, he had a good face, but his temper was extremely irritable. His two fists alternately smashed the bookcase, and the pen and ink on the book case bounced randomly.
Guan Xiaoshan's eyes flashed, and he stepped up and walked over gently.
"Hmm?"
I felt that someone was approaching; Ming Fatty suddenly looked up, stared at Guan Xiaoshan, and then asked fiercely, "Who are you?"
Guan Xiaoshan grinned, tried to make his face softer, and replied, "Big brother, my name is Guan Xiaoshan."
"Guan Xiaoshan?"
Ming Fatty said, and suddenly asked in a harsh voice, "You are very face-to-face, not from a nearby school. Why come in!"
Guan Xiaoshan replied, "This big brother, it's like this - I just arrived in Kunlun City, and I want to find a job to do; I just passed by here and saw that the big brother is busy, so I came in and ask - does the big brother need help? I know words, and I can do everything here.
"Well~~"
The fat man hummed and thought about it uncertainly. On weekdays, he may not consider asking someone for help, but it's a coincidence that his mood is being stimulated by irritable trifles.
"How old are you? Where did it come from? Do you really understand? Can you do anything else besides knowing how to write? Fatty Ming frowned and looked at Guan Xiaoshan, as if his heart was moved.
Guan Xiaoshan honestly replied, "This big brother, I'm from Xihai, and I'm 24 this year. Some time ago, a group of iron-toothed silver carp appeared in the West Sea, which harmed all the Xihai people. My father and my mother also died later, and I was the only one who fled to Kunlun City. I know words, I know how to cultivate, how to cast nets and fish, and the way rural people can do it; but when I first came to Kunlun City, I can't do much work in the city.
"Well--"
The fat man nodded thoughtfully.
Because of being able to stay in a blessed place to practice, the librarian is a good job for practitioners. Ordinary people who are not enlightened can't learn skills or earn crystals here. In fact, it's not good. It's better to go to the surrounding farms to learn some skills. These details don't know, but the fat man knows it.
"How many words do you know?" Ming Fatty asked with some fluke in his arms. It's a good thing to have someone to help take care of the library. If this person knows enough words to teach him, it would be even better. But I don't have much confidence. How many words can a countryman know?
"We are idle in the countryside. We can learn to read when we have nothing to do. I know seven or eight thousand people." Guan Xiaoshan smiled.
"Thirty-eight thousand?"
Ming Fatty opened his eyes wide, exclaimed, and then nodded slowly and said, "If you can know so many words, you can really stay and help. However, help is just food and accommodation, no salary, and you have to abide by the rules. Uh-huh - it's up to you.
"Brother, don't worry! I follow the rules. I don't want a salary. I only help. Guan Xiaoshan answered loudly.
"Don't call me big brother. I'm younger than you..." After a pause, the fat man squeaked his mouth and said firmly, "You can call me young master in the future. When others ask, I will say that you are a servant of my Ming family, which is easy to explain. Humph - Although others may not believe it, young master, I will make the name of the Ming family resound again one day.
"Young master! I know." Guan Xiaoshan easily shouted "Young Master". With the blessing of "Aunt", he did not find it particularly difficult to shout the word "Young Master".
"Young master? Hahaha - not bad. That's it - come here and I'll tell you about the rules of the library. The fat man laughed and was very satisfied.
The four-in-one library is a library shared by four schools.
The books on the first floor are for the teachers of the "Psychic Enlightenment School", the books on the second floor are for the teachers of the "Mage Training School", the books on the third floor are for the teachers and the "Pre-God Research Institute", and the books on the fourth floor are for the teachers and true martial arts. Pre-god refers to a senior mage who is one in a hundred and the most promising to become a god.
There is a Reiki array on the library bookshelf, and the collection is blocked by the array. You don't have to worry about losing it. You need to remember the clip - the green jade clip - to pick up the book. This is the reason why Guan Xiaoshan can't steal the book.
There are four kinds of memory clips, corresponding to the four floors, each of which is engraved with a recognition array. The library stipulates that teachers and students who come to borrow can only borrow one book at a time, and can only borrow books on the floor corresponding to their identity. It is strictly forbidden to borrow books on other floors. All of this depends on the identification array on the clip for differentiated management.
There is an identification array for management. The affairs of the library management are much simpler, and an administrator is enough to deal with it. The administrator has two main responsibilities, one is the registration and cancellation of book borrowing and return; the other is to manage the collection folder, which is assigned to the borrower according to the name badge.
The famous emblem is a badge to prove identity, representing status and strength. Even senior technicians and ordinary mages can't have a famous emblem. Those who have the famous emblem are the real upper-class people in Kunlun City. Don't neglect it.
"That's the rule. Remember it!"
When the fat man Ming saw Guan Xiaoshan nodding and agree, he stretched out and said with relief, "I live in a miscellaneous house on the fourth floor, and I will practice on it in the future. The things below will be left to you. Don't worry about the food. Someone sent it to the school kitchen. Do you want to sleep? - you can find a place to lie down."
Guan Xiaoshan said, "Thank you for your concern. I'm not particular about it. I can fall asleep anywhere."
Ming Fatty nodded with satisfaction and said, "If anyone asks, just say that I have something to go out. You can replace me for a few days. Don't worry, no one cares about these other things. Speaking of this, he glanced at Guan Xiaoshan and frowned and said, "Come up with me and change your clothes; Kunlun City is not a countryside, and the four-in-one library is a place where the upper class people come and go in Kunlun City. Pay attention to clean it up."
Guan Xiaoshan said gratefully, "Young master, you are so kind. I will repay you..."
