This was an expected answer. Xie Nanshi was not that disappointed and just nodded again.
The atmosphere was a bit heavy, so Song Yu had to insist: "When will Taoist priest Sui Sui be buried? Am I still lucky enough to offer him a stick of incense?"
"Three days later."
"oh."
Song Yu picked up the food for a moment, and suddenly felt a little bit overwhelmed. In fact, he didn't spend much time with Taoist Priest Sui, but he could tell that he had an easy-going personality and was easy to get along with. He even felt like the people around him were really leaving, not just one
It feels like the PC is temporarily dead in the game.
He suddenly wanted to know more about this Taoist priest, so he picked up the tea cup, cleared his mouth and asked: "Elder Sui... why did you have such a Taoist name?"
Xie Nanshi's expression became a little strange and helpless: "It's the Taoist title given by my father... to the Taoist Priest."
Ah this...Song Yu, such an eloquent person, was stuck for a moment. Although he only heard these two comments about the former master of Jiange from Xie Nanshi's words, Song Yu seemed to have already sketched out the image of the other party in his mind.
Casual, free and easy, high-spirited. Also a wonderful person.
Song Yu didn't know why his heart suddenly felt relaxed: "Then you will be very busy these two days?"
As the master of Zangfeng Peak, Xie Nanshi must have a lot of things to deal with after being away for such a long time, and he must also pay attention to the burial of a random Taoist priest.
Sure enough, Jie Nanshi nodded, took out a token from his sleeve and threw it to Song Yu: "Tomorrow, a disciple will take you to the first floor of the sky. With this token, you can search for books in the building at will, or you can Borrow.”
Song Yu realized that the first floor should be the legendary library. He put away the token and nodded and said, "If I find any information about Guixu, I will sort it out and show it to you."
Xie Nanshi nodded and said no more. The two of them put away the dishes and chopsticks, and then Xie Nanshi picked up the food box and left Song Yu's room.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Song Yu was awakened by a knock on the door. Yuan Fang was nowhere to be seen in the house, and he didn't know where Fei had gone to play. The young disciple who led the way yesterday was still outside. This child may have exchanged a few more words with Song Yu yesterday, but he obviously talked more today than yesterday.
"Mr. Song, I thought about it later. Although you have a good relationship with the Peak Master, you are not from the Zangfeng Sect after all." The younger junior brother spoke very carefully, fearing that Song Yu would interrupt him again today and lead him away. "You call me junior brother, don't you?" It's appropriate. Although I haven't been given a name yet, I still have a common name, Qi Liangtong."
Song Yu didn't struggle at all: "Okay, Xiao Qi, I'll trouble you today."
Soon Song Yu understood the situation of the young disciple. This young disciple’s surname was Liangtong. The village he lived in was massacred by the White Walkers in his early years. It was the Great Elder Yan Rui who passed by and got rid of the White Walkers and found the boy hidden by his mother. He got up. At that time, he was less than one year old, so he was taken back to Zangfeng by Yan Rui and adopted.
"Then you and your master must be as close as father and son?" Song Yu joked casually.
Qi Liangtong hurriedly denied: "Master is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, and he is responsible for everything. I am lucky enough to be accepted by Master, but I never dare to let Master worry about me. My senior brothers and sisters usually take care of me."
As he spoke, Qi Liangtong felt that his words seemed a bit inappropriate, and quickly added: "Master is just a little strict, but his heart is very good. Although he doesn't say much, he always cares about his disciples. The best master in the world!"
Song Yu couldn't laugh or cry: "I understand. Elder Yan is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He is a truly good man."
Qi Liangtong nodded vigorously. He was just a little afraid of Yan Rui because of his strictness, but his respect and love for him never decreased.
After Song Yu heard this, he reciprocated the favor and told the children a lot about things outside the mountains. Qi Liangtong had never been down the mountain since he was a child. He was stunned for a while and became closer to Song Yu. When he reached the first floor of the sky, he just held Song Yu's arm and called his brother directly.
The Tianyi Building is four stories high. From the outside, it looks like a dusty ordinary small building. It doesn't even match the fairyland's feel.
Qi Liangtong walked outside the building and said, "I don't have a token and I can't enter and exit the Tianyi Building at will. I'll wait for you outside."
Tianyilou collects all the classics and techniques since the establishment of the sword pavilion, which is naturally the top priority of the sect. Although Qi Liangtong grew up in the mountain and was of high seniority, he failed the examination and could not enter without the Peak Master's token.
Song Yu was not too surprised by this. In a normal game flow, he would have to join a sect, complete tasks, and gain a lot of contribution points before he could enter a place like this. This time it was Xie Nanshi who helped open the back door.
However, it was so hot outside, and he didn't want to let Qi Liangtong wait outside, so he simply said hello: "I also remember the way here, you go back first. What will you do with your homework if you waste time here?" "
"Master said, the Peak Master's matters take priority." Qi Liangtong blinked, obviously wanting to say something more, but feeling a little embarrassed.
"I don't know when I'm going to read a book." Song Yu thought for a while and then said, "In this way, I've almost stayed on the first floor of the sky, and I'll go find you. You can go back to do your homework, and you can still think about it. If there’s anything else you want to know, I’ll tell you when I get back.”
Qi Liangtong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt as if he had developed a little vulgarity and was a little embarrassed. He stopped insisting and nodded, but when he left, he looked back three times, extremely reluctant to leave.
Song Yu smiled and watched the person walk away before taking the token and walking up the steps. The door to the first floor was open. When he entered, he felt a wave of water resistance, which was a familiar isolation formation. Because he had the token, he was able to get in smoothly.
The building is a bit like a large library, with rows of classics placed on the wooden bookshelves. Sunlight pours in from the windows, making the entire building transparent and bright. If the decoration hadn't been a bit antique, it would have felt like returning to a university library.
Before Song Yu came, he asked Jie Nan about the general situation on the first floor of Shitian, and he was quite prepared for the huge volume of books. However, Xie Nanshi is the proud man of heaven after all, and he already has his own way of cultivation before he can enter the first floor of heaven. After that, he concentrated on practicing and only went to Tianyi Floor a handful of times.
So where are the books about the White Walkers and the Return of the Ruins... He has no clue.
The most troublesome thing is that not everyone can enter the Tianyi Building, so there are no permanent disciples. There is no such thing as a librarian. If Song Yu wanted to find anything, he could only rely on his own hardworking hands.
Song Yu looked at the densely packed bookcases, and then looked up at the four-story Tianyi Floor. What can he do? He can only use it so much now, just accept his fate.
However, the collection of books on the first floor of Tianyi is still structured. If nothing else, there are still basic classifications. Although there is no spine that Song Yu can clearly understand at a glance, if he flips through it, he will probably not miss any categories.
Since the predecessor of this place was called Jiange, most of the books inside were related to swordsmanship, as well as some world chronicles and Jiange-related records. It was still early, so Song Yu simply read more.
To be honest, in addition to the White Walkers and Guixu, he is actually also very curious about the Jiange itself and the complete system of this world.
Zangfeng... is the only sect that players are not allowed to join.
On the other hand, it was useless for Song Yu to read books related to martial arts and swordsmanship. He just flipped through two books. There was some regret in my heart. If Zhou Mu could learn the techniques of Jiange, his overall combat power could be doubled.
At least he shouldn't be killed by Jie Nanshi with one move.
This collection of books was huge, and Song Yu would stop to take a closer look from time to time. When he looked up, he realized that the sun was setting in the west outside the first floor. However, the lights in the building are obviously driven by talismans, and the lights are bright and stable. Otherwise, Song Yu wouldn't have had a sore neck and realized something was wrong when he looked up.
"It's already this hour..." Song Yu moved his neck. When Song Yu entered the first floor of the sky, he had already filled up his satiety level, whether he was hungry or not, and occasionally knocked on the small wooden fish to give himself some buffs. These many bonuses allowed him to barely finish scanning the books on the first floor.
The books here are mostly entry-level classics, some of the most basic moves and mental techniques, as well as some miscellaneous books such as a brief history of Jiange and the history of various cities. Occasionally there are mentions of strange ghosts and beasts on the other side of history, but these are often just a few quick strokes without any in-depth research.
The first floor is like this, why not go to the second floor? As soon as Song Yu walked up a few steps, he immediately gave up the idea. After all, he still had to go back to the main peak. It was getting dark, and for a weakling like him who had no cultivation, that road would be even more difficult.
Just as I was thinking about it, there was a unique creaking sound from the upper part of the stairs.
Song Yu was so frightened at that time that he almost stayed on the first floor of Tianyi Building for a whole day and had no idea that there was someone above him. Looking up, he saw someone...who he wasn't familiar with but had seen before. He happened to be Qi Liangtong's elder father, Yan Rui.
The other party was also a kind-hearted elder with an immortal demeanor. He held two volumes of books in his hands and nodded to Song Yu. The stairs were only so wide, and the other party was still an elder. Song Yu trotted down two steps without even thinking, and gave up his position.
Yan Rui seemed to accept Song Yu's actions calmly. He just walked down the stairs. He deliberately stopped and looked at Song Yu beside him with a rather searching look: "Are you the friend invited by the peak master?"
This is asking knowingly. Song Yu knew at first glance that he was not a disciple of Zangfeng. Recently, the only guests from Zangfeng were those brought back by Xie Nanshi. However, the other party was the Great Elder of Zangfeng, who was in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall and took charge of the entire Zangfeng during the two years when Jie Nanshi came down the mountain. Song Yu had no reason to argue with him, so he made a not-so-standard bow: "Exactly."
Yan Rui nodded but had no intention of leaving. Instead, he looked at Song Yu with an inquiring gaze: "You are not a cultivator."
These words were very straightforward. Song Yu was stunned by this straight shot, but he still tried his best to smile: "My meridians are special and I can't practice them."
"Oh?" Yan Rui seemed to be interested, and without giving Song Yu a chance to refuse, he probed Song Yu's meridians with his backhand. His expression changed several times, and finally he looked at Song Yu with a strange and strange look: "Are you interested in becoming my teacher?"
