Chapter 80: Encountering a Strange Book

Xu Qing’s expression darkened as she walked up to the man. “You look like a scholar. Why are you scolding me? Is the bookstore a place for shameless people like you?”

Many people had already come to watch the commotion. Even the manager of the bookstore walked out. The manager looked to be in his fifties or sixties, and he looked righteous and serious. However, he didn’t seem to intend to interfere. There seemed to be a hint of interest in his eyes.

“I’m telling the truth! The bookstore is a place for scholars! Look at you guys, holding hands in a mushy manner. It’s simply immoral!” The man took a long time to calm down, but he still couldn’t stand up. He could only sit on the ground and say with a flushed face.

When Xu Qing heard this, she continued to hold Qiao Yanhui’s hand. She didn’t expect scholars to be so nosy! Could it be that this person had been dumped before and couldn’t bear to see others in love? “Is it considered immoral for us to have a good relationship? According to your logic, since your parents gave birth to you, it’s considered shameful?”

These words made everyone present blush. Why did this little girl speak so blunt in public?!

“You… you!” The man was almost angered to death and was speechless as he pointed at her.

The manager finally said, “People who know how to appreciate books can naturally enter the bookstore. Alright, everyone, go do your work. Disperse.”

Uncle Lei wasn’t a simple person. Since he had spoken, no one would watch the commotion anymore.

When the man who was sent flying saw that Uncle Lei didn’t speak up for him, his expression became even uglier. However, he didn’t dare to retort and could only drag his injured body away.

Uncle Lei smiled at Xu Qing. “May I know what book you need?”

Xu Qing looked around at the largest bookstore in this town. The decoration was elegant. Although it wasn’t very big, there were many books.

“Give me some books for enlightenment and some classics.” Xu Qing went to look around. She turned around and asked Qiao Yanhui, “Little Hui, do you have any books you want?” However, after saying this, she smiled helplessly. Qiao Yanhui wasn’t very smart now, so how could he understand books? She didn’t force him and went to find the books she needed. She wasn’t familiar with this continent, so she needed to understand the humanities, geography, history, and culture of the various countries on this continent.

......

Xu Qing finally chose three books and looked for Qiao Yanhui. She saw Qiao Yanhui sitting in a corner with a book in his hands and reading it seriously.

Xu Qing walked over curiously. However, when she saw the old book in his hand, Xu Qing’s expression changed and she looked at Qiao Yanhui in disbelief. Qiao Yanhui looked back at her with pure ignorance. He had actually chosen a military book!

“Honey, I want this book.” Qiao Yanhui looked at Xu Qing pitifully.

A complicated look flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes, but she still smiled gently. “Alright.” With that, she walked towards the counter with the military book.

The book in Xu Qing’s hand was the Art of War. However, when she thought of the author and the date this book was published, Xu Qing was puzzled. The continent she was on now was completely different from the era she used to live in! The Art of War was a historical masterpiece in her era. Therefore, how could this ancient country have the Art of War?

She had flipped through a few pages just now. It was indeed the Art of War that she had seen in her previous life. Moreover, the paper of this book wasn’t dated. It was obvious that it was written in recent years. It might be related to Ying Zhiyao or even written by him!

However, why did the book written by Ying Zhiyao spread outside? It had to be known that the Art of War was a military art book that all countries fought to obtain. Ordinary people might not think much of it! ????????????????????????????. C????m

Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui and couldn’t help but feel worried. She was afraid that her guess would become a fact!

She placed the book on the counter. Uncle Lei had already packed the book she wanted. When he saw the last book in Xu Qing’s hand, his gaze was a little strange. “You can understand the words on this?”

Xu Qing was stunned. She thought of something. That’s right, the words in this book were all in simplified Chinese. The people from the ancient country didn’t know them at all!

However, Qiao Yanhui…

Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui again and saw that he was in a daze. She thought that she might be worrying too much. Qiao Yanhui was a fool and a native of ancient China. How could he understand the words on it? He probably felt that the words on it were very strange, so he was curious.
