"Collection of Du Gongbu" is named after Du Fu once served as a member of the Ministry of Inspection and Engineering. It has six volumes and contains more than 1,000 poems and more than 30 articles.
"What Mo Si is pointing to is not the book itself, but the pages of one of them..."
Li Ang opened the book and slightly relaxed the restrictions on the ink thread, allowing it to emerge from the skin of his fingertips and crawl toward the book.
"found it."
Mo Si finally locked on a page with the poem "Long Night Book" printed on it.
Li Ang gently twisted the page with his fingers and found that it was thicker than the other pages, as if multiple pieces of paper were glued together.
"Could it be..."
Li Ang groaned and pulled out the dagger from his belt. He used the blade to gently dig in and pry open the corners of the book pages. He held both sides with his hands and slowly tore them open.
Wow——
After the two pages were separated, an old brown-yellow paper sandwiched inside was revealed.
Li Ang held the jade pendant at his waist with one hand, ready to activate the protective talisman at any time. With the other hand, he used tweezers to take out the paper from the sandwich and placed it on the table.
The texture of the paper is similar to leather, with a cloudy cloud of ink on its surface. As the old paper is exposed to the air, the ball of ink gradually activates, swimming on the paper, appearing and disappearing.
"Alienated object..."
Li Ang raised his eyebrows slightly. Inanimate dead objects that did not conform to common sense and had special behaviors were classified as [abnormal].
There is no specific rule for the formation and emergence of alien species.
Some aliens are extremely dangerous and need to be suppressed and controlled by the Academy and the Department of Prosecution at all costs.
For example, an iron rod that can continuously generate thunderstorms in the surrounding area;
ivory chopsticks that cause flesh to fester and rot when exposed to bodily fluids;
However, some alien species do not cause much harm in themselves, such as a soft stone that can be used as a pillow.
Or a piece of hemp rope that can be immersed in sewage to quickly clarify the water.
Just as Li Ang was thinking about what kind of alienated object this yellow paper was and whether it should be handed over to the academy for containment,
The ink on the yellow paper gradually stabilized and turned into clear horizontal strokes and vertical strokes.
And these strokes are automatically pieced together to form lines of writing.
"The Imprisoned Heaven's Finger"
"Buddha's Angry Fire Lotus"
"Heavenly Demon Skill"
"Huntian Baojian"
...
"???"
Li Ang couldn't help but be stunned as he looked at the names of the secrets on the paper that were full of them. He picked up the paper and checked again and again, and finally confirmed that these secrets only had names and no content.
"The title of the book is fraudulent, right?"
Li Ang's eyes twitched, "Are you just teasing me with this? What's the use of asking for a bunch of contentless exercises?"
As if he heard Li Ang's complaints, the handwriting on the paper changed again,
[Young man ○’s grades are not ideal...]
"Stop it, this thing is useless."
[My name is Yang Jian, I will be dead when you see this sentence...]
"A weird parchment, isn't it?"
Li Ang rubbed his forehead. The content of the writing on the yellow paper changed repeatedly, but what was shown was what Li Ang had in his own memory.
For example, the names, scripts, pictures of martial arts secret books, even flying coins in denominations of one thousand guan and two thousand guan, the leave approval note issued by the doctor of the academy, etc.
It seems that this piece of paper will automatically display the text pattern that the observer wants to see?
What is this, a fully automatic reader, or a psychic card?
Li Ang shook his head. There was already a memory palace formed by fragments of memories from another world in his mind.
The yellow paper can only reflect what is already in the mind of the observer, and cannot be imagined or fabricated out of thin air to obtain information that does not exist.
Therefore, it is impossible to present "detailed strategies on how to quickly realize industrialization" or "the results of the next period of horse racing in Chang'an City".
“According to the academy’s classification of aliens, this [psychic paper] does not pose much direct harm to individuals or human society.
Storage and control are also relatively simple.
It should be the same as the Nightmare Bell in Zhenzhou, which is a fifth-level alienated object. "
Li Ang said silently: "The question is why Mo Si is pointing towards it."
Previously, Mo Si only had the desire to devour gold, silver and special metals.
Even in the Library Pavilion of the Academy and outside the Dongjun Tower, there are no references to books or alienated objects.
"Could this piece of paper be put into the book by the Sword Immortal himself?
These "Collections of Du Gongbu" were published in the tenth year of the Dali calendar, that is, in the fifth year after Du Gongbu's death.
That Li Taibai and Du Gongbu were good friends and confidants. Judging from the time, it is possible that after he returned from the endless sea, he put this alienated object into the "Collection of Du Gongbu". "
Li Ang thought: "Because I miss my old friends, do I put the alienated objects that can bring up beautiful memories into the old friends' poems and essays..."
He paused and suddenly thought: "Wait a minute, if Mosi smelled the scent of this alienated object, that's why she became directional.
Doesn't that mean that I can use this characteristic to find other alienated objects left by the Sword Immortal himself?
Or even other tombs? "
"Master, it's time to eat."
The sound of firewood came from outside the study,
"coming."
Li Ang put away the psychic paper and walked out of the study.
Judging from my experience during this period,
The powerful ink silk is fully qualified to become a first-level alien that is rare in number and each one can have a huge impact.
The secrets in other tombs must not be much different.
What's more, Mo Si swallows up gold and silver without gaining weight, which is particularly weird and weird. Having it parasitize in the body is always a bit uneasy. It would be best to find other relics and even suicide notes of the Sword Immortal himself to find out the nature of Mo Si.
————
Time flies, the new year is approaching, and the academy also gives the disciples a winter vacation.
This is the first New Year that Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao have spent in Chang'an, and they feel... okay.
On New Year's Eve, there is a performance to drive away Nuo in Chang'an City, which is similar to the carnival in other world memories. People wear masks and play ghosts, Nuo weng and Nuo mothers, walking, dancing, playing and singing. Most of the lyrics describe how righteous humans beat up people. Monsters and monsters.
This is a custom that has been passed down from ancient times and is also performed in the royal palace.
In addition, every household will light a fire in the courtyard, calling it "Ting Liao", and throw firecrackers and worn-out brooms into it.
Throwing firecrackers is for fun, and throwing brooms is probably to express good wishes such as a safe home.
Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao spent the whole night shopping on New Year's Eve. After the Haotian bell rang and the New Year arrived, they went to the homes of Song Shaoyuan, Yang Yu, Ji Linglang and others to pay New Year's greetings.
But the first day of the new year is not so exciting - in the early morning of the first day of the new year, all the middle and high-level bureaucrats in Chang'an will go to the imperial city to attend the imperial meeting.
Officials from various state capitals will come in person or send deputies.
Including the far-flung Jisi Prefecture, as well as vassal countries and neighboring countries, they all sent envoys to send gifts and congratulations.
The whole process was also extremely cumbersome, with the prime minister reciting New Year's greetings in parallel and the envoys from foreign countries reciting congratulatory messages.
As the newly appointed county magistrate, Li Ang also had to participate in this boring and lengthy activity.
After finally getting over it, he was invited to the palace again to observe the new princes and princesses born this year.
"Your Majesty and Queen, it's true. I'm not some god or bodhisattva.
Is it necessary to bring those babies who are several months old to me and let me pretend to praise them for their strong health? "
Li Ang, who walked out of the palace, couldn't help but complain to Yan Zhou, the eldest son of the Yan family (the grandson of Yan Yundang and the son of Yan Lin, who served as an errand in the palace around the crown prince of the East Palace).
Yan Zhou had no choice but to smile bitterly. He did not dare to talk about Emperor Yu behind his back, so he could only say: "Isn't it because His Majesty trusts you?
The people have already set up a place to build a shrine for you, so that you can bless the newly born princes and princesses, so as to gain peace of mind. "
"Ha, it's better to engrave my name on a longevity lock and wear it for the baby. I can use my name right to collect money while sitting at home."
Li Ang complained casually, and suddenly noticed the subtle expression on Yan Zhou's face, "Wait a minute, no one among the people has already done this, right?"
"more than..."
Yanzhou said awkwardly: "I heard that there are still shops selling your portraits, hanging on the walls of mothers' or midwives' homes. But people have never seen what you look like, and the portraits try to make your face as pink as possible and your lips as red. style painting.”
"this..."
Li Ang opened his mouth, not knowing what to think.
Emotions themselves are now considered to be women’s friends and baby protectors?
Is this a bit...
"Right, Risheng."
Yan Zhou suddenly whispered: "Years ago, His Majesty issued an edict, allowing the East Palace to set up a school to collect and compile classics and books to teach students.
The academy should be built soon. Do you want to come to watch the ceremony? "
"Watch the ceremony?"
Li Ang raised his eyebrows slightly. The Prince's East Palace itself is a small government, with departments such as Zhan Shifu, Zuo Chunfang, You Chunfang, Economic Affairs Bureau, Medicine Storage Bureau, and the Prince's Left and Right Palace.
Small but complete
After the prince takes office, he can quickly arrange his team to handle government affairs.
The academy, in name, is for collecting and compiling classics and books, but in fact it is an additional place where you can recruit counselors and place confidants.
Yanzhou served in the left and right palace of the East Palace. He invited Li Ang to watch the ceremony. Naturally, it was not just to watch the ceremony, but to bridge the gap for the prince and provide an opportunity for private talks.
"I may be busy in the future and I don't know if I will have time."
Li Ang thought for a moment and replied.
He did not want to get involved in the dispute between the crown prince Li Si and the fourth prince Li Hui.
Emperor Yu is still in good health, and it will be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse when the prince comes to power.
As for the prince or prince, what conditions can they offer themselves?
money?
Li Ang collects patent fees every month and feels tired even counting the money.
Official position?
Li Ang was studying in the Academy, but he couldn't really become an official.
Title?
At his current age, the title of county earl is already high enough, and there is no possibility of him receiving the title in a short time.
Since the prince and prince could not give him any conditions, why should Li Ang participate - it was impossible for the two princes to take two alienated objects left by the Sword Immortal from the palace treasury and give them to him.
"Is that so? I understand."
Yan Zhou nodded and did not ask any further questions.
Li Ang is a disciple of the Academy, and he has the right not to participate in the affairs of the East Palace. What's more, he still has a title, achievements, and a transcendent status.
Yanzhou's invitation just now was just a question.
The two rode across the Royal Bridge, passed the Danfeng Gate, and left the Daming Palace.
Since Yan Zhou had to go to the East Palace on errands, the two parted outside the Danfeng Gate. Li Ang looked at Yan Zhou's leaving back and shook his head imperceptibly.
Sure enough, the decision to enter the Academy no matter what was the right decision.
Even if Yanzhou is the eldest grandson of the Yan family and the future heir to the title,
It is inevitable to be forced to participate in the power struggle.
Only the Academy can transcend external objects.
Li Ang pulled the reins and drove the horse away from Guangzhaifang.
The New Year has just passed, and there is still a little smell of fireworks and firecrackers on the streets.
In the courtyard of every household, there are also slender bamboo poles with long strips of flags made of paper or cloth hung on them to pray for blessings.
It seems that there is something similar in the memory of another world,
It seems to be called... Carp Floating?
Li Ang blinked and planned to use [Psychic Paper] to look for relevant information when he gets home. The biggest role of [Psychic Paper] during this period is to help him find information in the memory bank, which is equivalent to a file search tool.
By the way, if the [Psychic Paper] is shown to ordinary people, it will most likely turn into a piece of flying money worth one thousand or two thousand dollars.
And if you give a hint with words before taking out the [Psychic Paper], then the [Psychic Paper] may also change into a land deed, house deed, etc.
“Even monks can’t avoid the effects of psychic paper.
Show it to the Kingo Guards. In their eyes, the paper might turn into a palace pass. "
Li Ang thought silently, "It's a pity that the material can only be paper, not wooden signs, jade pendants or more complicated things.
And the conversion frequency is also limited.
It cannot play sequential pictures like a TV. "
The world of Alien Memory is an era with rich and diverse entertainment methods.
After seeing movies, TV and animation, it was difficult for Li Ang to have any interest in opera and drama in Dongxifang City.
"I heard that there is a kind of alienated substance in Dongjun Tower that can enhance the effect of aliens.
Add that to the psychic paper, and maybe it will have the effect of a TV..."
While Li Ang was thinking, the ink silk under the robe was activated again, and there was a strong desire to devour, pointing towards a certain building in the city.
"Um?"
Li Ang subconsciously tightened the reins and stopped the horse.
Mo Si pointed at the thirteenth mansion in Shengyefang.
The mansion occupies a large area and is luxurious. The flags and flags erected in the courtyard are also made of fine silk.
In addition, there were monks and Taoist priests walking in one after another.
Li Ang remained silent, got off his horse and came to the roadside.
The thirteenth residence of Shengyefang seemed to be conducting some chanting and worship activities, and faint singing could be heard from inside.
"This old man, please ask, who is this family?"
Li Ang asked an old man who was watching on the roadside. After asking, he found out that this family was still an official family and was praying for the old lady in the house.
