The sunlight is not very strong, but it is very piercing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion ww.iue.no
Doris, like most women waiting in the square, wore a hat that was big for her. The brim of the hat is very large, not only can block all the sunlight shining on her face, but also cover most of her face from a certain angle. When they separated from the housekeepers a few days ago, they didn't tell Doris any extra things, just reminded them to hide.
Another small Doris in the small gift car did not appear to be crowded at all, and the old air circulation system was struggling to deliver fresh air into the car. Driving quickly on a road with few vehicles, buildings on both sides rushed towards them.
"First go to the Imperial Library here, put me down, and then you find a place to have breakfast, and you can go to the hotel that you have decided beforehand to have a rest." The limousine was extremely fast. Entering the range of the main city, Julian speeded up deliberately. He didn't want to run into the morning peak period that every city had. "Everyone is separated into a room, take a break first, don't rush to contact, wait until I go back to the hotel to talk about specific things."
"Okay, we can also take advantage of this time to sort out the things that need to be dealt with next." Yulian responded to Cassia's words from the side, and the car passed through the curve blocked by the building in front, like a bush. The countless buildings crowded like this instantly squeezed into their eyes.
There is no surprising feeling. After seeing the extreme prosperity of Manoma, facing this similar architectural style and the same grandeur, the reaction of the four of them is to blink their eyes more so that the brain can be more Deal with the information mapped in the eyes well.
According to the negotiated procedure, Cassia got out of the car in front of the Imperial Library. The white marble is combined with the anticorrosive and hardened oak board. The whole layout presents a common square shape, which is close to dozens of stories high.
Every prosperous area will set up an imperial library, as the country’s public buildings, they are well maintained. The empire is surprisingly attentive to these things.
Although the door of the Imperial Library in front of him was wide open, it was probably because it was time for breakfast in the middle of the day that only Cassia walked in slowly by himself.
A long row of loan processing counters are directly opposite the gate, and on both sides is the real entrance of the library. Here you can already see all kinds of books on the shelves. From the outside, you can see the approximate area of this imperial library, but when you enter it, it seems that there is no end inside. Not only books are placed here, there are also many cultural relics preserved in this area on the upper floors.
There is no need to go through any formalities. Cassia followed the prompts to the Empire History books, and it took a few minutes to find what she needed.
"Grote Rom, the first generation of knight king of the empire, was born in the Manor Kingdom period, during his..." Cassia glanced at the introduction at the beginning, then continued to read.
After reading several of the same history books, I found the part that introduced Grote. Although there are some discrepancies in the narrative, the general meaning is the same-the first generation of knight kings did not live long, and finally died heroically in the war with the enemy. His wives and children received the best treatment in the empire, enjoying life until old age, either suffering from disease or dying naturally. The things recorded in the books are all in a normal state, and there is no room for rebuttal. What's more, all history books have the same facts, and no one can refute them.
But this is not the answer Cassia wanted. In other words, once the words recorded in the book differed from what he thought in his head, he would instinctively doubt the authenticity of the facts written on it. Closing the book, Cassia stared at the densely arranged list of books in a daze.
"Young man, you seem to be very interested in the history of the first generation of knight kings." There was a voice beside it, old but not fading, very angry.
Cassia looked over and saw an old man with almost white hair resting on the side with a stack of tall books in his hands. He was dressed in gray Empire Library staff's overalls, with a warm smile on his face like the morning sun.
"Can you give me a hug? At this age, it's useless to be tough. I can't keep up with my physical strength." The old man said with a smile, "It seems that I will have to take a few more books when I hold the book in the future. I am old, but my heart is still the same as before.
As he said, the old man returned a book based on the number on each book. Although Cassia didn't know what had happened, she also walked over to take the first book and followed the old man.
"The related books here are incomplete, especially about history. It is difficult to have a library that can cover all the history. And although it is history, it is written by people. How correct is it? It’s also a question of whether or not.
The old man said, walking past the rows of bookshelves, and quickly returned the books that Cassia had in his hands to their original locations.
There is a warehouse on the third floor, and there are a lot of Too old, or how to put it, can be regarded as books that have yet to be verified. There are a lot of books on history. The history of the first generation of knight kings that you are interested in also accounts for a lot of time. Are you interested? Go up and have a look, it's also thank you for helping me out."
Nodding to express gratitude ~EbookFREE.me~ led by the old man to the third floor.
It is said to be a warehouse, but in Cassia's eyes it is more like a place where an old man used to read books alone. It does not have the quiet and uninhabited appearance of a warehouse. The air was not fresh, and the two of them walked in, and the white ash accumulated on the books rushed upward like snow smoke in an avalanche, and everything showed the same old feeling as the old man.
"As a small warehouse, I used to read books here when I had nothing to do. Some of the books I collected were not allowed to go home, so they were piled up here." The old man walked over and opened the heavy curtains, then opened them. The windows let in the air, and big beams of golden sunlight came in. "Young people like you, there are not many who like to read books. Those nobles don’t know, but as far as ordinary people are concerned, the library is always empty. It’s rare to see young faces."
I sighed, and the dust that I don’t know where came from turned into a living animal in the square sunlight, circling and dancing there, "Let’s see, the door is closed until 12 o’clock in the evening. Pull the door tight when you leave. That’s it, don’t tell me. There are a lot of books below that need to be put back in place, so I won’t bother you."
The old man exited the room with a smile, leaving only Cassia alone to face the silent books there, speechless. (To be continued.)
