In the interstellar era, most books have changed from physical to online e-books.
A small storage disk can hold a huge book equivalent to an entire library
Except for some readers who still have deep feelings for physical books, most people seldom go to libraries or bookstores to read books.
The Wenda Library where Lu Sheng works is facing such a dilemma.
The territory of the Motu Empire is extremely vast, and the huge range of several river systems is completely occupied by the humans of the empire.
All other races were either wiped out, or reduced to minorities and merged into the Motu Empire.
Against such a background, the cultural knowledge of countless nationalities has been integrated, and the knowledge base has been enriched to an extremely high level.
Lu Sheng used a lot of energy and soul power at home to heal the wounds on his lower body. For him, it doesn't matter if the earth qi and soul power are not easy to use.
As long as he finds the mainstream system of this world, Deep Blue will help him improve himself quickly and climb to a very high level again.
It was only at home that he spent more than half of his soul power and earth energy before he managed to repair the heart disease in this body.
This made Lu Sheng extremely unhappy.
Although the energy conversion loss was extremely serious due to the difference in rules, it was a huge waste for him to get such a small result for such a loss.
After tidying up his body, taking a shower, he changed his clothes, made a quick meal, and after eating whole, he fell on the bed and slowly fell into a deep sleep.
In the early morning of the second day, Lu Sheng dug out the special work clothes from the closet, which was a set of shirt and gray trousers. After putting it on, he looked in the mirror.
What was reflected in the mirror was a middle-aged man with fair skin, even to the point of being a little pale.
The masculine demeanor is somewhat gloomy, his eyes are always squinted, his expression is indifferent, but his back is straight. No cervical and lumbar spondylosis.
The facial features are barely handsome, but not handsome.
"I can continue to be a librarian, but also be able to stand out and be no longer ordinary... If this is my wish in this world, then I can satisfy you." Lu Sheng smiled at himself in the mirror.
He scratched his hair, and his body was still as clean and meticulous as Wang Mu's before.
Even the cuffs of the shirt were buttoned up very neatly.
Put on your shoes and walk out of the house. Lu Sheng pushed out a Red Fang battery car from the stairwell, rode on it and drove towards the library.
Wenda Library was only about two kilometers away from his rented house, and within ten minutes, Lu Sheng arrived at the deserted courtyard of the library.
The sun was bright and warm, but there was no one to be seen in the library except the old guard who was dozing off.
Lu Sheng drove the car to a corner and parked it, and locked it. He straightened his collar and took out the key to open the library door.
The entire library is located in a remote suburban area. Since it is a private library, it was originally established by many folks donating books, so it did not intend to make a profit at the beginning.
This is a two-storey small building bought by a wealthy man nostalgic for nostalgia. There are six large rooms in total, which are used as the main storage space for the library.
"Xiao Wang, did you come so early today?" The gatekeeper was awakened by the sound of the key, rubbed his eyes, and looked at Lu Sheng.
"Well, I woke up early today, and I haven't had breakfast yet." Lu Sheng replied with a nod.
Pushing open the door, he walked in slowly.
A hazy cloud of dust rushed towards him.
"There are too few people... It's hard to take care of basic hygiene..." Lu Sheng shook his head and was speechless.
The entire library is divided into two floors, with three library rooms on the first floor, two library rooms on the second floor, and a library room for magazines and periodicals.
Lu Sheng opened the doors and windows one by one to let all the rooms breathe.
Then start to look carefully at the situation of this library.
There are not many books. A library has about 2,000 volumes, and the five volumes add up to 10,000 volumes. The magazine and newspaper room has not been updated for a long time, so it is useless.
In other words, the entire library has a total of more than 10,000 books.
He flipped through it at random, many of which were outdated professional skills books.
Comparing the publication period with some knowledge in Wang Mu's memory, I don't know how many years behind.
"No wonder no one came." Lu Sheng was speechless again.
Wang Mu's wish is to continue to be a librarian, but also to stand out and be no longer ordinary.
Lu Sheng could understand the ambition in his heart.
In the process of finding his son, helping him fulfill his wish is also improving his soul power.
Although he is very strong now, reaching the limit of human beings, maybe this method of absorbing his own soul from the parallel world is still effective
"You can try."
Lu Sheng quickly found a seat in the borrowing office of the library and sat down. I made myself a cup of tea and turned on the old broken computer on the table.
Kaka..
Small noises continued to be emitted from the computer case, like an old tractor slowly puffing out black smoke and moving forward step by step.
The computer turned on, and... .
He just found out that there is no internet connection... ..
Funding for the library is very difficult. The last wealthy businessman who supported the library a while ago completely lost contact because of bankruptcy.
Up to now, Wang Mu has maintained his income and the income of the doorman by relying on the little profit made by the library.
There is no money to pay for the internet at all.
Moreover, the ownership of this place belongs to the bankrupt rich man in theory, but there has been no news for so long, and I don't know what happened to that man.
Lu Sheng looked at the data stored in the computer.
In addition to a large number of book stubs, there are also a large number of previously downloaded books.
There are all kinds of industries and categories.
He browsed a little, especially the human body development.
It's a pity that the materials are also old, and most of them are common professional skills and knowledge. There is little value for reference.
After browsing for a while, Lu Sheng found nothing, except for a deeper understanding of the world, there is no other content.
Soon, a whole morning passed without knowing it.
Lu Sheng glanced at the borrowing system on the computer.
Although the system is old, it works fairly well. As shown above, three people came into the library and were reading in the second library.
The borrowing system is connected to the monitoring system and access control. Anyone who comes in and out can clearly know.
"Is there really someone reading the book?" Lu Sheng was slightly surprised. While spending a lot of earth energy and soul power to repair his body, he kept getting to know this first super-level universe he entered.
After sitting for a while, footsteps came from the door of the library directly facing Lu Sheng.
A girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a single ponytail and a simple white T-shirt and jeans, walked into the door with small steps.
She holds a book in her hand, what appears to be poetry.
"Borrow a copy of this." She put the book on the table in front of Lu Sheng.
"Okay." Lu Sheng glanced at the title of the book, "Farewell, my autumn. "
At first glance, it is moaning without illness, and the boring and empty Wenqing is dedicated to the sick.
"One book is three yuan, you can read it for a week, and the deposit is one hundred." Lu Sheng skillfully followed Wang Mu's habit and explained the rules of borrowing books.
"Okay." The girl paid the money from the wallet with a calm expression, and Lu Sheng scanned the code of the book for her, then watched her turn and leave.
With the first, there is the second, and the third.
The small library, because of its cheap price and high cost performance, actually borrowed eight books in one morning.
The three people borrowed books one after another, and the two boys in the back were together, and borrowed a whole set of historical documents in one go, obviously for the purpose of looking for information.
In the afternoon, Lu Sheng continued to repair his heart problems, and then continued to maintain Wang Mu's previous work.
Business was better in the afternoon than in the morning. Five people came, lent a total of 20 books, and received nearly 100 yuan.
It was about to close in the afternoon.
beep...
The phone rang.
Wang Mu was wiping the table, when he heard the sound, he quickly took the phone out of his trouser pocket.
The name is displayed on the top.
'Xu Shaogong. '
This is Wang Mu's only classmate and friend. It was also the only person he hadn't deliberately alienated since he became a poorly paid librarian.
Press the ON key. A hearty and enthusiastic voice suddenly came from the phone.
"Mumu, how are you doing recently? I just went to Huangjia City a few days ago, the sea water there is really super blue, and the beach is full of sisters in swimsuits. Didn't you see that scene, and some people took off their bras and naked , tsk tsk... I told you to go together and you didn't listen...."
Xu Shaogong's gibberish voice kept coming from the other end of the phone.
Lu Sheng didn't speak at all, for a full twenty minutes, this guy talked from beginning to end without any pause.
Xu Shaogong's family background is ordinary, but he strived for himself, and got mixed up in a foreign-funded enterprise as a department head, and his salary was not bad. In addition, he is also extroverted and enthusiastic, so he soon found a girlfriend to talk to.
Unlike Wang Mu, he has always been in touch with his former classmates, and he also has a lot of acquaintances.
It's just that he always hated Wang Mu's iron and steel, and looked down on his life philosophy of not seeking to make progress, and always advised him to get rid of this job and go out to find a new one.
Just wasting time in a dilapidated library is a waste of youth.
After playing with Xu Shaogong for a while, almost half an hour passed, Lu Sheng hung up the phone, but he was actually listening the whole time, and had no chance to speak at all.
He turned his head to look at the slowly setting sun outside.
He took a deep breath and exhaled.
"It's almost clear... this place doesn't have any special power at all. It's the most common technological system world."
He frowned.
"It seems that we can only start with the most basic physical exercise."
Although this is the slowest, it is the best no matter where it is applicable.
"From the information I have inquired before, the exercise methods here are slightly different from the ones I practiced before. But the roughest basic parts are the same. It can be used universally."
The most basic part, such as repeatedly exercising a body part, will receive more nutrition for that part, thus strengthening it.
This law is the same in any universe.
This is the evolution and adaptation of living things.
Lu Sheng recalled a little in his mind, which skills are suitable for him to practice now.
