Seeing that both of them were linking him and Yan Ling'er, Xiang Zhong had no choice but to pretend to smile and say: "I'm afraid that my foolish brother is not worthy enough, I feel ashamed!"
"You and Ling'er are a perfect match, so don't belittle yourself. Since your crowning ceremony is ahead of schedule, I hope that after the crowning ceremony, you can ask your father to send someone to come to propose marriage! My sister has a saying, and there is no need for the six rituals, 'Nacai, Ningqi' , Welcoming you in person is all you need! Please don’t refuse!”
Yan Yu hurriedly finalized the date. After all, his sister was already old and couldn't afford to delay it, so as to avoid long nights and dreams.
"Okay, okay! Don't forget to let me know when the time comes. We need to go celebrate together!"
This is how good brothers work together to make things bigger, and Li Dan also added fuel to the fire in time.
Xiang Chongqian smiled, and there was no reason to make up any objections. This matter had been settled among the brothers.
"Okay, after the crowning ceremony is completed, I will try to mention this matter to my father and mother. Please rest assured, Brother Yu."
"That's great! Coming of age, starting a family, starting a family, and establishing a career are really a 'double happiness'! Haha, congratulations, congratulations!" Li Dan congratulated sincerely with a pleased expression on his face.
"Brother Dan, you are the one who deserves to be congratulated! From serving as a minor official in the Zhou Shou Tibetan Room to being promoted to the official Shou Tibetan Room, you can be in charge of the most prosperous collection of famous seals and classics of various countries in the world. This is a great joy!"
Xiang Zhongye sincerely congratulated him and added, "I dare you to ask Brother Dan to move your car immediately and take us to the storage room to fully appreciate the vastness and depth of the world of literature. This will give us a rare opportunity to open our eyes. How are you?"
"Of course! You two please!"
Li Dan led the way, leading the two of them to the core building complex of the Cangzang Room, introducing the scenery along the way while walking at a leisurely pace.
It is really admirable to say that this is the largest library in the world: the building is so large that it is rare in the world. Even if it is compared with the palace, it is not far behind. The only difference is that the top of the palace is usually golden yellow. The roof of the storage room is a bright black color, with only the roof ridge edged by a green line, giving the entire building complex a very solemn, solemn and sacred feeling, revealing its majesty. With great respect for history and the ancient sages!
The tall pines in the courtyard, the green bamboos that shade the sun, the lotuses in large water storage tanks that can be seen everywhere, the fine white sand spread evenly on the ground, and the bluestone paths, all these bright colors are displayed on the door walls of the house. All against a pure black background, the colors are even more vivid, as if they are soaked in a water film. Looking at it from any angle, it is a beautiful picture full of Zen.
Except for the loud chirping of cicadas, the wind blowing on the trees, and the slight "rustling" sound of the leaves rubbing against each other, there was almost no other sound, and it seemed that there were very few human traces.
It's not that there are no people, but the people who come here take the initiative to abide by the rules here: keep quiet. Even if there are occasionally a few cleaning staff responsible for cleaning carrying water basins, and those responsible for carrying books are responsible for regularly placing books and slips on a special balcony with sufficient sunlight, drying books, and incense to prevent insects, there are also some restoration craftsmen who will add some The work of re-disassembling and reinforcing the sutures was done, but the people who were doing all this work were in a "muted" state. When they occasionally talked, they kept the volume low and could only be heard by the two people talking.
Everything here looks so organized and perfect.
For the convenience of storage, the layout here is roughly divided into five areas according to the texture of the scrolls: bamboo, cloth, armor, gold, and stone. There are also some earthen document carriers merged with the "stone" area.
In order to meet the needs of fire prevention, the number of large water tanks is also concentrated in the three areas of "Bamboo, Bu, and Jia"; while the number of large water tanks in the Jinshi District is much smaller, and a few are only installed for the hidden dangers of wooden buildings. .
For Xiang Zhong, there is also a familiar feeling here: those bamboo forests with dense green shade, and the books in the "bamboo" area. However, the number of bamboo forests is not as good as what he knows, but the number of books is far greater than he knows. Of course, if you get to the Xinwu era, you have seen a library of this size before - after all, in the Spring and Autumn Period, having such a scale was quite awe-inspiring.
There is a very quiet, quiet, but also very prosperous and prosperous feeling: the quiet one is the surrounding environment, but the prosperous one is that one's thoughts are clearly written on these bamboo, cloth, oracle bones, or gold, Those sages and saints on stone or soil refused to return their souls and bodies to the earth. They used words as a medium to immortalize history.
Xiang Zhong found the state called "flow" again. When he held the book in his hand, he was immersed in those rare historical stories, while other people like Li Dan and Yan Yu seemed to be completely lost. Unable to see or hear, the only thing he could communicate with was him and the world described by the author of the book he held in his hand.
In the eyes of others, Xiang Zhong was like an old monk who had fallen into samadhi, immersed in a sea of books for a whole day as if no one else was around, but in his own mind, it seemed that only an hour or two had passed.
On this day, he had been immersed in several volumes of books related to the content of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". The last time he had to stop reading halfway through it was when he was three years old in the bamboo forest library. Unexpectedly, twelve years later, He was so excited that he could find the remaining part here, so he eagerly held the scroll and read it deeply. He even put the food and water that Li Dan sent on the way aside without touching it at all.
"It's really amazing! Genetically recombined characters, animals, tribal wars, gardens and fairy mountains, rare treasures, what is life in ancient times like? The description here is simply too imaginative! If this is real history , how many "scientific research conclusions" that humans in the 21st century are proud of will have to be overturned! It turns out that those monsters with human faces and animal bodies are not monsters, but real people. And we, the most numerous human beings, are now The stereotyped image is just one of many branches, and it is the most satisfactory work of the Creator, which allows human beings to reproduce themselves until today."
Xiang Zhong read these ancient books carefully with Xinwu Fujia's dual perspective, and a huge wave of emotions arose in his heart. He seemed to have to restructure his world view. The previous fixed cognitive system was like an earthquake. , in the description of these words, pieces collapsed and disintegrated, and the truly correct cognition was being reintegrated and reshaped in his brain... This movement was no less than the discovery of a "new continent"!
