Naturally, Jiuge would not refuse such kindness.

She smiled and said: "Well, I happen to be very curious about the worms in your mouths. If you can allow me to borrow those precious cheat books of yours, it would be great if I can increase my knowledge while relaxing my boredom."

Through heavy door locks, Yin Gu took a kerosene lamp and led her to the Shufang library built underground.

This place should be a naturally formed cave, and there are still stalactite-like cones on the top of the head. Logically speaking, the underground should be damp and stagnant, but perhaps because the former underground river has long been diverted, it is cool and dry here. It's a great place to stack books.

Walking through the winding bridge made of wood, you will soon come to the library that is sealed off by the stone gate.

Yin Gu picked out a few very interesting books about worms that he had read before, and relieved Jiu Ge, while he continued reading along the parts he had read before.

The two were holding a book each, and read it with relish by candlelight in front of the desk.

At the same time, Granny Yu also came to Shufang Danyou: "Miss, have you really decided?"

"Ah." She put the glued pages of the book into the worm jar with the paper fish, "Didn't Granny Yu trust her and bring her to you?"

"But……"

"Danger is inevitable. Granny Yu, because of the taboo, you have to bear the fate of becoming an insect master for me, and you are trapped in another courtyard with me. Even if you and I can accept the fate calmly and not resent , I don’t feel pain. But I... really don’t want my descendants to repeat my reincarnation..."

This tragic fate, if possible, let her end it, even if it means paying her life.

Even if she couldn't, at least she tried, tried her best, and had a clear conscience.

Granny Yu felt extremely distressed, but she couldn't bear to stop her.

Granny Yu was born into a family of pharmacists.

Back then, the heavens and the earth mutated, and a taboo seed that destroyed all life appeared.It was the pharmacist clan who sealed the taboo seed into the Shufang ancestors, and since then, the pharmacist clan has served the Shufang lineage for generations.

As a descendant of this generation of pharmacists, she has always been by her side since she was born in Shufang Danyou.Watching her gradually grow from a babbling baby to a qualified "writer" who can handle her own work, it goes without saying how much hard work she has put in during this period. After more than ten years, she has regarded Danyou as her own child.It broke her heart to see this child tortured by the forbidden seed.

"Grandma Yu." Shufang stopped lightly and looked at her seriously, "Meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life."

"Me too." Holding back tears.

It was the first time Yin Gu saw someone reading like turning the pages of a book, the pages clattered and he finished reading a book.The pile he specially selected for her turned over in less than half an hour. After that, she fell into a long silence again, with her head lowered, her lips pursed habitually, and her posture of sitting quietly showed a bit of confusion. lonely.

It was clearly behind her, as long as she turned around, the bookshelf was within reach, but she never reached out to read it.

She was afraid that something was on her mind.

Yin Gu had an epiphany.

Since the relationship between the two of them is too superficial, it is inconvenient to ask about many things. After deliberating for a while, Yin Gu picked up a light topic: "You read it so fast! Can you roughly remember the above content?"

When asked suddenly, Jiu Ge came back to his senses, thought for a while, and felt a little shy: "It's okay... I read books very fast, just for fun, I can only remember the outline, and when I really use it, I will feel numb. .You look slowly, just because you see it in your eyes and remember it in your heart. It is incomparable, incomparable..."

Yin Guwenzhi laughed out loud, and pointed behind her: "Those bookshelves record stories about worms, after reading them, just take them as you like."

Jiu Ge responded with "yes" and continued to pick out what he liked to watch from the above.

Yin Gu also continued to read, but she could feel that her reading speed slowed down, sometimes she turned quickly, and sometimes she stopped on a page for a long time, obviously absent-minded.

Yin Gu secretly sighed, no longer insisting.

After eating and returning to her room to rest, Yin Gu called her to stop.

"What's the matter?" Jiu Ge held the door and poked his head out, a little strange.

"Wait until tomorrow, if you don't mind, let me tell you about my previous travel experience, which is quite different from what you read in the book now." Yin Gu thought of a good way to ease his emotions.

Jiuge looked at him, the relationship between them is not so close, right?Besides, Yin Gu is not a talkative person in my memory, so why do I want to have a personal experience with her all of a sudden?Talking lightly and deeply is not something that he would do as prudently as he would.

I secretly wondered why he would say that, and suddenly thought that he became strange after he came out of the library.

So... Was he seeing her uneasiness?

Jiuge's heart was full of honey, and the sweet feeling of happiness made her feel so light that she was about to float up.

Foul!

Why is everyone she meets here so gentle?

Natsume is, and so is Ginko.

She was just a stranger with small thoughts, why didn't they guard her suspiciously and treat her coldly?Being so considerate, considerate and gentle makes it difficult for her...

Heart full of such sweet distress, Jiuge wanted to look sad, but the corners of his lips could not help but curl up: "Really? Thank you so much! I didn't feel it before, but now I feel free, after reading a book for a day , the eyes are sore."

"Then it's settled."

Yin Gu also breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help sighing, making the little girl happy is really more troublesome than traveling over mountains and mountains.

Paper fish is a kind of insect that can degrade paper and make characters out of control.For a family of book collectors, once the paper fish invaded the library, it would be nothing less than a catastrophe.

However, with the unique copying method of the Shangshoufang family, it is possible to transfer the out-of-control content to other papers.

For the use of paper fish, Shufang Danyou is very familiar with it.Even if the paper fish multiplied to terrifying numbers, it would never go wrong.

But this time it was different.

Those paper fishes that she raised carefully like pets couldn't invade the sticky book pages at all, and even died for unknown reasons.

Karuba pursed her lips lightly, turning slightly white.

In the past few days, she has made many attempts, even using all the wine to catalyze the dangerous behavior of the paper fish, but none of them succeeded.

Sitting on the tatami, she couldn't help lighting up the cigarette stick, and took a deep puff. The choking smoke slowly penetrated into the lungs along the trachea, bringing a little bit of coolness. Gradually, the suppressed and irritable emotions in her chest also Strangely quiet.

Shufang let out a long and faint breath, watched the smoke drift away, and said to Granny Yu who was guarding outside the door: "Call that girl named Jiu Ge, I have something to look for her."
