章節 26: I Think There Are Transcendents in the World
編輯: Henyee Translations
Su Yun did not know if this change in his supernatural state was harmful or beneficial to him.
For example, in some sports, if one practiced for a long time, it would harm the body to a certain extent. Would the supernatural state be the same?
Since he had only experienced it twice so far, he urgently needed to find out the root cause of this state.
If he were to go berserk and use the damage to his body in exchange for that strange state, it would not be worth it.
Su Yun wanted to stop the damage in time before the supernatural perception caused huge damage to him. Of course, if it was beneficial, it would also increase his control over the supernatural state.
In any case, it was imperative to check his supernatural state.
"That's all for this morning's livestream. Let's go straight to the library."
After making up his mind, Su Yun closed the livestream under the criticism of the netizens.
He had already been mentally prepared when he chose the path of livestreaming.
No one could be liked by everyone. Once you were exposed to the public, there would be some people who would criticize you, be it good or bad.
Therefore, Su Yun did not take the netizens' accusations to heart.
He wanted to know what the supernatural state was and how it was determined.
Su Yun got on his electric scooter and prepared to head to the largest and most complete library in the city, the Hibiscus University Library.
Su Yun sped all the way to the library.
"I hope I can find the answer I want here."
Su Yun sized up the library in front of him. The familiar feeling that he had not felt for a long time gradually assaulted his heart.
"I haven't been back to Hibiscus University for almost two months."
Returning to the familiar campus, Su Yun could not help but recall his time in university.
Su Yun was a fourth-year university student who was interning outside. Although he was still a university student in name, he no longer had much to do with the school.
He was just short of a graduation certificate and a graduation party. In this way, his many years of student life would end.
After a short daze, Su Yun shook his head and walked into the library hall.
"Student, please register your student number."
"Will do."
After a simple registration, Su Yun went straight to the third floor.
If he remembered correctly, the third floor was filled with historical literature, ancient literature, ancient poetry, and other books.
The "Secret of the Golden Flower" that Su Yun was looking for should belong to ancient literature or ancient prose novels.
He arrived at the third floor with ease. At this moment, there were already many juniors swimming in the sea of books. However, there were only a few people in ancient literature on the third floor.
After all, ancient literature was only an elective class, so there were naturally fewer students involved. Most of the time, these books were an extracurricular reading material.
Su Yun did not care too much and began to shuttle between the rows of towering bookshelves.
After searching for a long time, he finally found the book he wanted.
"That's great. It really exists!"
Su Yun eagerly picked up the Secret of the Golden Flower and began to study it carefully.
The book was slightly yellowed and looked like an old book. However, there was not a trace of dust. It seemed that the staff had taken very good care of it.
When he opened the first chapter, he found something strange.
It was originally written in ancient Chinese, but someone actually directly annotated it in the book.
"Why is someone writing on a public book?"
Su Yun complained because it was taboo to directly damage a library book. If one wanted to annotate, they would usually choose to mark it with a bookmark. This way, it would be convenient for the next reader to read without damaging the original book.
"Lü's comments…"
Su Yun was attracted by the notes. From the handwriting of this person's notes, it was actually annotated with a small brush and their name was left behind.
This made Su Yun inexplicably interested in this person.
After reading for a while, he could not help but sigh at this strange annotation. Fortunately, he had some annotations. Otherwise, Su Yun would not have been able to understand some of the words.
After all, ancient Chinese was not that easy to translate. Su Yun did not study the relevant subjects, so it was indeed difficult for him.
Just as Su Yun was engrossed in it, a puzzled and crisp female voice sounded beside him.
"Eh? Grandpa, look, someone is reading great-grandfather's book."
Su Yun was pulled back from his thoughts by the female voice and looked over in surprise.
He saw an old man in his seventies with a beautiful young girl looking at him in confusion.
Su Yun was also surprised when he saw this. He said, "Old Sir, what's the matter?"
The old man walked over with a kind smile. "Young man, are you reading the Secret of the Golden Flower?"
Su Yun nodded.
The young girl reminded him softly, "This is a book donated by my great-grandfather. Don't break it!"
Su Yun smiled and teased, "Oh? Your great-grandfather is Lü Dongbin?"
Faced with Su Yun's joke, the young girl glared at him. "Of course not."
At this moment, as they spoke, the old man and a young woman had already arrived beside Su Yun. He could no longer focus on reading.
The old man waved his hand and said, "Young man, don't mind it. The ancient books in this column were collected by my father when he was alive. He studied them for his entire life. After he passed away, he asked me to give them to the Hibiscus University Library."
The young girl continued, "My grandfather is a professor of ancient literature at Hibiscus University. Every month, he would come here to observe and take care of these books to commemorate my great grandfather."
Upon hearing this, Su Yun was suddenly enlightened. He thought to himself, no wonder there were such a strange old and young person here.
However, he was surprised that the old man was a professor of ancient literature.
It seems that the Lü annotations in the book were the work of his father.
Su Yun said apologetically, "In that case, I've disturbed Professor Lü. However, I have a presumptuous request. I want to borrow this book. I wonder if it's okay?"
Su Yun spoke very politely and waved The Secret of the Golden Flower.
Oh?
Su Yun's words shocked Professor Lü and his granddaughter. He asked in surprise, "Young man, do you like to read such books?"
In Professor Lü's heart, some of the elements mentioned in this book were something he could not understand. He even felt that it was a little superstitious.
For example, in the chapter of "The Original Spirit and the Conscious Spirit" in the Secret of the Golden Flower, there was a saying that "Once the true nature of unified awareness has fallen into the chamber of the creative, it divides into higher and lower souls." The "higher soul" is "yang", the "lower soul" is "yin".
For this reason, Professor Lü once thought that this book could only be regarded as an ancient philosophical theory, a kind of imaginary theory that came from nothing and was untraceable.
His father had once been engrossed in studying the thoughts in the book. He had even wanted to reach the level of the thoughts in the book in reality, but he had spent the rest of his life to no avail. This further confirmed Professor Lü's conclusion that it was flashy and useless.
Professor Lü asked in confusion, "Young man, why are you interested in this book? If you want to read fantasy novels, aren't there better ones downstairs?"
Su Yun smiled meaningfully. "To be honest with you, sir, I personally feel that what's said in this book is not a figment of imagination."
