Chapter 210 Gray Robe Cooperation
When Cheese returned to the table, her face looked very good. If he didn't notice it, he would only feel confused or disappointed at most. As it is now, it means that his clue has the following, but it is not the kind he wants.
A large number of books were spread out, and many were placed on wooden triangle shelves. This was prepared by people who needed to read multiple books at the same time. It was also one of the earliest tools that gray robes learned to use.
Changxia is now buried in the barrier formed by books, her white hair shaking left and right with her eyes. She slowly raised her head after she noticed that the cheese was approaching.
"What did you find?"
Before Changxia could speak, Cheese had already asked this question. Generally speaking, this means that he was the one who was even more impatient, but it doesn't matter. The current strange situation is no longer the time for the endurance competition. The situation I just saw made Cheese want to understand the incident more comprehensively.
Changxia did not blame her fellow disciples for their anxiousness. Although she did not look anxious on her face, her movements of flipping books in her hand were three points faster than usual. If it weren't for the invisible force urging her, how could the female mage who had good patience and could sit quietly in the hot sand break her pace?
"These books belong to the same vein. They cover a wide range, but they are vaguely related. I found three related quotes and two similar supplementary explanations."
Three quotations and two explanations. Strictly speaking, this is not enough to conclude that these books all come from the same source. Chang Xia will believe that there is indeed a connection between them, and it is also a judgment obtained after analyzing the situation in front of you.
Is this judgment arbitrary? Not. Because it is the judgment of a gray robe mage, after she stated the basis, Cheese had no idea of questioning it at all.
"These books have been here for a long time. I didn't pay attention to the wood under them. The wood under them has traces of sinking corresponding to the size, which would not be like this without more than ten years of squeezing. I also compared them with other books here, and some of the traces left by them are not as heavy as them. So they have not only been in the library, but have not moved their positions." Cheese said in a deep voice.
His explanation is longer and complicated than Changxia's, because the clues he is responsible for, although seemingly more intuitive, are even more unbelievable. If they were here long ago, why would neither of them have any memory of it?
"There are two possibilities, either we have read these books, but for some reason, such as memory fading or magical influence, they have forgotten them. Considering their number, it is not impossible..." Changxia whispered his guess about this matter.
"Or it's because we haven't seen these books at all, so we naturally won't leave an impression. If there is no problem with the traces they leave on the bookshelf, it's that we were induced to ignore them for some reason."
Cheese continued her words and said quickly. These two possibilities are not so unthinkable, but they are most likely to cause the situation in front of them. However, whether it is to make them forget the content of the book or to make them ignore these classics, it requires a motivation and reason, right? Looking at the entire Gray Tower, who has such motivation and reason?
"What are you doing here?" The sound was as cold as a silver awl. The silver bone-permeable nail was used to hunt vampires and was sometimes used as ammunition for crossbow arrows. If a person is reminded of it when he speaks, it can be seen that the penetration and coldness of the sound is.
Cheese turned his head and saw a silversmith who had jumped off the stairs. The sun would rise again, and as long as people were not injured, they could naturally walk up the stairs. If it weren't forbidden all rude actions in the library of Gray Tower, Cheese believed that the other party would not say hello to him in words.
In fact, when the silversmith was speaking, he had already aimed a crossbow at the back of the cheese. The crossbow's ammunition was naturally made of sterling silver. The top of the arrow was made into a cross-flowing style, and there was a barb on the inside. It was difficult to even kill by such a sharp weapon.
"Anyway, I'm not discussing how to make a target." Cheese has never had a good impression of those who point at him with weapons. Moreover, the silversmith's actions are not out of fear of self-defense, but based on the threat of violence. The difference between the two is like the sun and the moon.
So the silversmith took off the crossbow arrow and loosened the bowstring. She did not continue to threaten cheese because they all knew the rules here. If there was an absolute safety zone in the Gray Tower, it must be the library.
Apart from the lack of privacy, no one will take the initiative to hurt others. Because as long as you take action, it will inevitably damage the collection of books here. These collections are collected from all over the world by the first gray robe, and many of them are lonely books. Apprentices have been educated since childhood and must not destroy them. Even today, as long as they are still gray robe, it is absolutely impossible to take action here.
The silversmith put down his weapon, and Cheese turned around and ignored her. He was indeed curious and puzzled by the silversmith and the jeweler so actively attacking his fellow disciples, but when new mysteries emerged in the library, these were no longer important.
Cheese walked to Changxia and watched the latter point out the relevant parts of the books one by one, trying to find some new clues from them. Not long after, the silversmith stood on the other side of Changxia, staring at the spreading books with a serious expression.
There is no way, she is also a gray robe, and her familiarity with the books here is no different from that of cheese and others.
"Why don't you start with the craft? The production process of books is different, and the material selection of covers and papers is also different. You are just shopping for the differences in comparison content, so why not compare other parts?"
Cheese and Changxia naturally understand the principle of craftsmanship, but just like Cheese pays more attention to the traces on the bookshelf, while Changxia is more willing to compare the content, the same bunch of clues will have different priorities in the eyes of different people.
As a mage who is diligent in handmade, the silversmith naturally has her own tendency to understand things. This does provide another way of thinking for the current problems.
Cheese glanced at her, then got up and walked away. Since the angle of craftsmanship was proposed by the silversmith, she would of course follow up. Chang Xia was responsible for handling the content and the silversmith was responsible for handling the process, and Cheese chose another most efficient angle, the library itself.
No matter which of the two possibilities he discussed with Chang Xia just now, they are inseparable from this library. In other words, they are inseparable from the complex magic that exists in the entire gray tower.
Once upon a time, Cheese didn't think it was necessary to spend his energy to analyze the tower, but to understand the mystery, it seemed that he had to bite this difficult bone.
"You were in a state of hostility before?"
Changxia looked at the silversmith and asked softly. She could not hear the accusation or worry in her tone, as if she was just talking about two unrelated people and their relationship with them.
"It's not your business. Have you studied yourself thoroughly and started to have the extra effort to study others?"
The silversmith attacked Changxia without hesitation, but in his hand, he tacitly opened two books to compare with her.
To a certain extent, the gray-robed mages are very divided people. Their subjective consciousness has likes and dislikes, but their objective thinking always makes them do the right thing.
