MTL - God of Taoism-v100 Chapter 676 One thing in heaven
Chapter 676 Heavenly One Thing
Bai Cangdong originally thought that he would be able to meet the Demon Emperor after entering the palace, but who knew that Jing Chen let him enter the palace, but only arranged a job for him, asking him to copy books in a library in the palace.
Bai Cangdong's daily work is to copy the classics in the bookstore from morning to night. These classics are basically poems and songs written by demons, demihumans and humans since the establishment of the Demon Imperial City. was recorded to stay here.
"What is the meaning of asking me to do these things?" Bai Cangdong thought to himself, it seems that a person like Jing Chen should have some deep meaning in doing things, and it is impossible to just make some meaningless arrangements.
But Bai Cangdong really can't think of what he can do by copying books here. Although this is also inside the imperial palace, what he can see every day are only some guards and library administrators. It is impossible to see the emperor at all. .
And there is no secret book of exercises hidden here, and copying these poems and songs does not seem to be of any benefit to him.
No matter how you look at it, copying books here is meaningless work.
Bai Cangdong suddenly thought of something, and thought to himself: "If there are poems and songs written by everyone in the magic city here, then the poems and songs written by Jing Chen are also here? Can you see through his poems and songs? some what?"
However, the books here are not just copied whichever one you want, they are also allocated by the manager of the library. It takes a while.
Fortunately, it is not forbidden to read books here, but Bai Cangdong found the poems written by Jing Chen. The poems written by Jing Chen are all five-character and seven-character poems, and most of them are poems about scenery. what.
Looking around, there is only one poem that is particularly strange.
The poem that Bai Cangdong finds strange is the poem "Bodhi has no tree, and the bright mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust." This was originally written by him to Jing Chen, and now I see it here Nor can it be considered strange.
The strange thing is that what is treasured here is usually the original, that is to say, this poem should have been written by Jing Chen himself, but Jing Chen made a typo.
Originally there is nothing, this nothing is written as heaven and one thing, if you are not careful, you can hardly see the difference, but Bai Cangdong has read it many times, and he is sure that what he read is correct, what Jingchen wrote is indeed A sky word, not no word.
"Could it be that Jing Chen made a careless mistake when he wrote it?" Bai Cangdong felt that the possibility of this was too low. How could it be possible for a person like Jing Chen to write a poem with a wrong word.
"If it's not a typo, but it's intentionally written in the word Tian, then what does the word Tian mean? Does it refer to the top?" Bai Cangdong raised his head and looked up. The top is the ceiling, made of pure stone. Not even a pattern.
After thinking about it, I feel that it is impossible to refer to the above. After all, the books in the library are sorted out by the managers. Sometimes there will be some changes, and they are not always fixed in one place. It is impossible for Jing Chen to know that this book will be placed. Where.
"If it doesn't refer to the location, then what does the word Tian mean?" Bai Cangdong read the poem in the wrong way several times.
"Originally there is one thing in the sky, originally there is one thing in the sky..." Bai Cangdong thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of the difference between the sky and nothing.
After thinking for a long time, Bai Cangdong didn't have any idea, and the rest time had come, so Bai Cangdong could only put the book back to its original place, and then went back to copy the book.
Working in the library like this for a few days, Bai Cangdong would secretly read the book every time when there was no one around.
"Is it really just a typo?" Bai Cangdong's judgment on himself was a little shaken.
But he quickly rejected this idea, Jing Chen asked him to come here to work, just happened to have another typo in the poem he wrote to Jing Chen in Jing Chen's book, no matter how you think about it, this is not accidental.
Half a month has passed in a flash, Bai Cangdong still hasn't been able to find out the clue, he comes here to copy books every day, and he has never even seen Jing Chen's face again.
"Where are you going? Come back to me." It was getting late, today's book copying work was over, Bai Cangdong was about to go home, but was stopped by the manager of the library, Zhao Chenfeng.
"I don't know what orders the landlord has?" Bai Cangdong asked in surprise.
This Zhao Chenfeng is a sub-human, a person who is favored by the right protector, and the right protector and the left protector Jingchen have always been in the same situation, so Zhao Chenfeng naturally doesn't have a good face towards Bai Cangdong. Bai Cangdong has been here for so long. A large number of copying tasks are assigned every day, and these tasks are enough for him to copy for several years.
"It's your turn to watch the night today, don't you know?" Zhao Chenfeng looked at Bai Cangdong and sneered.
"Night watch?" Bai Cangdong was slightly taken aback.
Bai Cangdong of course knows that there will be people from the bookstore responsible for the night watch every day, but the purpose is not to protect these books, but to check all the books that everyone copied during the day to see if there are any mistakes.
Bai Cangdong remembered that he had just arrived, and according to the sequence of shifts, it should be more than a month before his turn to watch the night, why it was only half a month before it was his turn to watch the night.
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you go?" Zhao Chenfeng glared at him without even an explanation.
Bai Cangdong didn't say anything, and walked into the special room for night watch.
This is a room specially separated to prevent the comparison people from touching the books in the library at night. The night watchmen will be locked inside, and they will complete the comparison work in it all night until the next day in the library. until open.
Including the books he copied today, many books are placed on the desk, and many books have been piled up, and many of them were not copied today.
"You have to compare all these books tonight, and pick out the ones with errors, otherwise don't blame me for following the rules." Zhao Chenfeng said coldly, turned around and left.
Bai Cangdong frowned slightly, knowing that Zhao Chenfeng was trying to trick him on purpose. There are so many books here, how could he finish the comparison overnight.
But if he didn't compare the books one by one, but just randomly piled up the books, it would be regarded as a comparison, Bai Cangdong believes that tomorrow Zhao Chenfeng will definitely pick out a book full of mistakes from the books he compared, and by then Then he will only be worse.
Bai Cangdong had no choice but to compare books one by one slowly, and he didn't want to be too fast. It was impossible for him to compare all the books.
After doing it for a while, Bai Cangdong's eyes were a little dry, he rubbed his eyes and stretched, raised his head and turned his neck, but Bai Cangdong suddenly froze, staring straight at the ceiling.
"If there is no mistake in the word Tian, it means nothing, and its sound means house, and the entire library building is an open structure building. The first floor is completely open, with rows of bookshelves placed. The only place in the library that can be called a house is this single night watch room." Bai Cangdong was ecstatic in his heart.
