Chapter 306: Reunion with the Book Keeper
Chapter 306: Reunion with the Book Keeper
Jiang Su calculated in his mind that in the entire Shifang Sect, the only person who could know about the Gu cultivators and even see through the current complex situation must be someone who is old enough.
The book keeper seemed to have been guarding a small library for tens of thousands of years, but judging by the speed with which he bought storybooks to follow updates and his obsession with the new books of the book immortal Bai Xiaosheng, this man definitely had a special way of contacting the outside world of Huichuntang.
Maybe he is actually here, but his soul is just wandering around.
"Tap tap tap."
The soles of my shoes made a creaking sound as they stepped on the wooden stairs.
As Jiang Su stepped onto the fifth floor, she saw the old man sitting cross-legged in the corner not far away. He slowly opened his eyes and stared at her calmly in the darkness.
Only then did she remember that the old man always sat in a gloomy position, but every time the kid came to see him, he would light a candle and smile kindly.
Jiang Su slowly walked up to him, squatted down, and greeted him, "I'm back, old man."
The book keeper rolled his eyes at her and muttered, "What's the point of you coming back? Why don't you bring little Huihui here to keep me company and talk."
The atmosphere was like melting ice.
"Want to talk? I'll keep you company."
Jiang Su casually took out a futon, sat on the ground, and said calmly, "Meng Hui can't come back with me. He has a mother in the Middle Earth who is very powerful. How can I bring him back?"
The book keeper didn't know the boy's true identity yet. When he heard this, his eyes lit up and he sat up straighter. "What's wrong with Xiao Huihui's parents? Whose child is he? These parents don't care about him at all. They actually let such a little kid come to a place so far away from our Shifang Sect."
Jiang Su's eyes flickered, her long eyelashes covering the depth of her eyes, and she chatted, "Have you heard of Wen Sheng?"
The book keeper was surprised, "He is the child of the Sage of Literature? That old man can still have children. I haven't heard of it. Which girl did he rape?"
"..."
I see you are quite old too.
"No, under the seat of the Sage of Literature there are four disciples, namely, music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is the child of the Sage of Books."
The book keeper was not as surprised this time as before, and leaned against the wall behind him again, "Oh, it's hers. I remember that the Book Fairy was a beautiful female cultivator. No wonder her child is so cute and lovable. What about the father of the little Huihui? Who is he? I remember that he came here to look for his father."
"Eh? Didn't you take him to the South Fire Secret Realm to find his father? What happened? Who is he?"
Jiang Su's expression was indifferent. When she thought of Si Kong, she felt unlucky. She said coldly, "A man."
The book keeper cursed, "How could I not know that his father is a man?! Tell me more details!"
"He is not a good person. He is so cruel to the kid's mother..." Jiang Su hesitated to speak.
The book keeper was extremely anxious and said angrily, "I knew he was a heartless man who abandoned his wife and children! Otherwise, why would he let such a small child come thousands of miles to find him? Doesn't he have legs? What's going on? Who is his father? What did he do to the child's mother?!"
Jiang Su's lips were tightly closed, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she didn't mean to answer him.
When the book keeper saw her attitude, he immediately understood that Jiang Su wanted to talk to him about something.
Jiang Su is a person who will never be mysterious in order to lure others into things he can say. He only reveals the expression of a profiteer when he wants to get something.
At his age, what kind of people has the book keeper not seen? He has also seen the little fox!
He stroked his white beard slowly, snorted with a dismissive attitude, "Tell me what it is first, and I'll think about it. If you want to borrow a book, you can go in and get it directly."
? As expected of an old man, he guessed it so quickly?
"Nothing, I don't want to borrow books, I just want to ask a few questions." Jiang Su said politely. The book keeper made a gesture with his fingertips and threw it into the book pavilion not far away. In an instant, the whole book pavilion was as bright as a sunny day.
"Books contain golden houses, books contain beautiful women, and any question you want to ask can be found in books." He pointed to the door of the mysterious library to Jiang Su and motioned her to go in.
Jiang Su did not move, staring at him straight, "Mr. Wenming, what I want to know is related to the Shiwan Mountains and the Shifang Gate. Are you sure it is in the library?"
The book keeper paused, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, then he raised his hand, and the light in the library suddenly dissipated.
"I see... you came to me to ask this."
Jiang Su's throat moved slightly, and he clenched his fists without knowing when.
The book keeper was her main target this time. If he was unwilling to tell her, the possibility of her getting the news from the person she was going to look for later would be even slimmer.
trouble……
"I can tell you."
The book keeper spread out his palms and said to her, "Give me some of your memories, related to Xiao Huihui, and tell me about his parents. Oh, by the way, how tall he is now, and what books he has read, I want to know."
"This child has a good personality and a good life. I like him very much, especially because he loves reading. If one day I no longer need this library, I will give all these books to him. He will definitely be very happy."
Jiang Su frowned slightly, and was very confused. "Why do you seem to be entrusting a will? You have been here for tens of thousands of years, why would you leave this level of the library?"
"Old man, tell me, what on earth is Shifang Sect going to face this time that would make you have such thoughts?"
Jiang Su really couldn't find any clues, she knew too little.
Although she is now the so-called number one in medicine and alchemy, she is just a weed in an upper realm sect that has existed for tens of thousands of years.
The truly powerful and mighty ones in various ways have long since disdained the pursuit of fame.
"Alas——" The book keeper sighed, moved his fingertips slightly, and drew runes in the air.
A pure white barrier was cast around the two of them.
"You should know this, they kept it from you for your own good."
Jiang Su said firmly, "I want to live clearly."
"If you want to live, you should leave Shifangmen immediately! Ahem…"
The book keeper half covered his mouth, leaving a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. He wiped it casually with his hand, his eyes tired, and continued, "The two most untrustworthy words in this world are forever."
"Shifang Sect will not always be the best among the immortal sects. Looking at the entire cultivation world, no immortal sect can claim to be the best forever."
"Do you know why the Shifang Sect was able to establish a sect in this land of southern fire?"
Jiang Su shook her head.
She knows nothing.
She had been born in the Shifang Sect in the lower world, and after ascending to heaven, she landed directly in the Shifang Sect in the land of Southern Fire. It seemed as if she had an inexplicable causal knot with this sect, which was tightly entangled.
This can be considered as fate, but what kind of future does this hard-won fate point to?
The book keeper continued, "It is the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
