"What do you call it?"
The middle-aged man asked.
"The surname is Xiao."
After all, he was a stranger who didn't know it, and Xiao Lin didn't reveal his name directly The man didn't care, and smiled kindly: "My surname is Lin, and it's been decades since I left Shuguang Academy, what grade are you from?"
” Xiao Lin noticed that the man said that he was leaving from the dawn, not graduating, and that he was a very old senior for decades, and he was a little confused and surprised in his heart, but he didn't want to ask much, and replied, "Freshman." ” The man was a little surprised: "Just enrolled, freshman?"
” "That's right."
"It's surprising that a new dawn is coming to a new Washington."
The two chatted a few words, and the man did not continue to ask Xiao Lin what he was doing here or how he came here, it could be seen that this was a very well-cultivated person, and soon their topic returned to the bookshelf here.
"These books are my personal collection, they were collected in my early years when I traveled around the world, and they are not all skill books, but also some translations, and I have no other hobbies but to read.
I don't need these books anymore, and it's a waste to keep them, so I opened a small shop here, and I didn't seek to make money, and it was not bad to ask a few friends to sit down in my spare time. ” 2 When he got here, the man smiled and said: "You can pick at will, I will give you the cost price, it is fate that it is rare to have a guest to come, it is okay to give it to you, but I still have to recover some costs, and the housing prices in New Washington are not cheap." ” Xiao Lin picked it up unceremoniously, but within a few minutes, the man saw that he was a layman and didn't know how to judge and select the skill book at all.
Thinking that Xiao Lin was just a freshman.
The man wasn't too surprised.
I explained a little.
The so-called skill book,Obviously, it's not the same concept as the game.,It's not that you can learn it immediately with a click of the mouse.,The skill book is actually a textbook.,The textbook will tell in detail about the composition of skills.
、Learning requirements、How to use it.,Slightly more high-end,There will also be more classic examples.。
The skill books on the men's shelves are all old, and the footers are more heavily rolled.
There are a lot of folds in the writing, but it can be seen that the man has kept these skill books very well, and there is not much damage.
Xiao Lin didn't dislike it much, but he still couldn't help but pay in his heart, these are not new books, even if they are just the cost price, it doesn't seem to be cheap.
But when he flipped through a few books at random, his eyes immediately lit up, and the thoughts just now were also thrown out of the clouds by him, the skill book.
In addition to the printed characters, there are often a few lines of small red writing next to them.
This is obviously a mark that the man later added to himself.
Roughly seeing what Xiao Lin was thinking, the man said: "These are my early learning experiences, they are personal experiences, if you want to see it, you can refer to it, if you don't want to see it, ignore it, I don't dare to say that my experience is suitable for everyone." ” Xiao Lin is looking through some high-level skill books, he may not be able to learn the skill content now, judging from the man's markings, these markings are definitely of great value.
For example, in the skill book of the Burst Fireball, next to a certain paragraph that introduces the starting hand casting action, the man has the following mark, if these actions are omitted, the power of the burst fireball will only be reduced by about 10, but the cast time of the condensed element will be reduced by several seconds.
This kind of small detail may sometimes play a key role, after all, for spells, a few seconds less time may be the difference between victory and defeat.
Xiao Lin read these notes with relish, and soon realized that it was inappropriate, for people who sell books, they undoubtedly hate people who buy books and don't buy them.
The man had returned to his sofa chair and said with a smile: "Sit here and watch, there is more light here." ” Xiao Lin was a little embarrassed, and put down the skill book in his hand, in addition to the skill book, there are many works translated from the New World, not necessarily skill books, they are all written by the local indigenous powerhouses.
Xiao Lin felt that he was a little picky, and he looked left and right and felt good, but he didn't know where to choose.
The man saw his embarrassment and walked over again: "Tell me, what kind of courses are you taking, in fact, for new students, I am afraid that most of the skill books here I have will not be used by you." ” Xiao Lin thought for a moment and said, "Basic skill books are fine." ” The man raised an eyebrow: "What about the kind?"
There are many basic skills, the major elements of spells have basic skills, compound elements also have basic skills, and various melee weapons also have basic skills. ” "And what kind of species do you have?"
Xiao Lin asked, he thought the man's markings in the book were very useful, and if he did have a basic skill book, he didn't mind taking some with him.
"Hehe, what if I had both."
Xiao Lin was a little surprised, and even couldn't help but wonder if this man was also the type of person with multiple weapons and cultivation?
It seemed to see his thoughts again, and the man smiled: "I said that I like to read books, but I prefer to collect books, I don't have so much energy to learn the skill books here, many of them are actually repurchased from others at low prices, skill books are consumables, when this skill is mastered, skill books have no value, and used skill books, often no one will buy them, I will buy them at a low price." ” "Did you buy it back at a low price just to read a book?"
Xiao Lin was a little puzzled, but soon realized that what the man was reading was not the skill book itself, but the annotations that other people were learning in the skill book.
Sure enough, the man said: "Everyone's understanding of skills is different, I am not a learning genius, let alone a talented student, my comprehension of some skills is actually summed up by summarizing the learning experience of many other people." ” "Can you show me your basic skills book?"
"We'll have to wait a while."
The man readily agreed, turned and left for the basement, where he returned a moment later with a heavy copper box, which Peng's thud lay on the floor, and the box was covered with a thick layer of dust.
"These are all accumulated from traveling around in the early years, and I haven't read them for decades, and then all major colleges began to use standard textbooks, and not many people read these basic skills books."
The man wiped the dust while explaining, opened the lid of the box, it was full of books of all sizes, Xiao Lin picked up one casually and looked through it, and unexpectedly found that it was all hand-copied, which was completely different from the skill books on the shelves, and the skill books here were completely handwritten.
It is more appropriate to say that it is a skill book, but it is better to say that these are study notes.
Xiao Lin looked at the man with surprise and doubt.
