A residential area.
Cen Sheng, who was sitting on the sofa reading a magazine, looked more and more excited and agitated between his eyebrows.
If he was a little worried about Li Fan just now, then those worries have long since ceased to exist.
Li Fan, as expected, there is no need for people to worry about it at all, nor will it give those with ulterior motives the slightest chance.
Unless, he gave it deliberately.
This time, Li Fan’s work on the Chinese zodiac is based on the selection of the Chinese zodiac animals by the Jade Emperor as the background. It vividly describes the various interesting stories that occur between various animals in order to be the Chinese zodiac animals. .
The imagination of the story is bold and reasonable, and it is extremely interesting. In many places, people can't help but agree to it.
For example, between the mouse and the cat, the mouse and the cow, the mouse and the elephant, the rooster and the dragon... and so on.
Cen Sheng looked at each story one by one, and he was more and more pleasantly surprised. However, when he saw it halfway through, he suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out his cell phone and dialed a call.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Xiao Sheng, what's the matter?" The voice on the phone, the master, is not young anymore.
"Grandpa Second, I’m telling you a good news. I have just watched Li Fan’s new works on the Chinese Zodiac. I think it is very good. It is much better than the previous works created for the Chinese Zodiac. Grandpa Second, you Hurry up and buy a copy to see." Cen Sheng said to the phone very excitedly.
"Oh, is it? The second grandpa must have a look. I'm just about to go out, so I'll buy a copy by the way. It's called "Fun Children", right?"
"Well, Grandpa Second, you go and buy it quickly."
After hanging up the phone, Cen Sheng picked up "Fun Children" and continued to read the story.
...
Speaking of Cen Sheng, you may not know him, but if you talk about Cen Sheng's second grandfather, Cen Geng, he is definitely famous and has a high reputation in China.
Cen Geng, 55 years old, is a professor of history at Beijing University, a doctoral supervisor, and a well-known historian in China.
His main research direction is historical literature, including poetry, miscellaneous theories, myths and legends, folk allusions, etc., and has published and published many related academic papers and books.
Recently, Cen Geng’s main research object has been placed on top of those myths and legends, and he wants to find or complement related myths and legends in the boundless book of materials.
For example, the legend of "Hou Yi shoots the sun".
Why did Hou Yi shoot the sun? There must be some reason for this, and the reason may be related to its related legends.
Cen Geng really wants to solve these mysteries in his lifetime to make up for this gap and regret in Chinese culture.
However, Cen Geng has studied for many years and consulted a large number of historical books, but he has never made any major discoveries.
Are these myths and legends in our country really lost? Two billion Chinese people have no chance to learn the truth of those myths and legends?
This makes Cen Geng feel very regretful and unwilling.
If it is really impossible to find the answer from the relevant information, then if someone can create related myths and legends, as long as their works can be recognized and accepted by the majority of people, in Cen Geng’s view, they can also make up for those to a certain extent. regret.
Although it is certainly not as good as the original related legend, it is better than being blank after all.
In fact, some people have made relevant attempts, but the results are not satisfactory.
This undoubtedly became a new regret in Cen Geng's heart.
A few days ago, Cen Geng’s grandson, Cen Sheng, told him that today’s fairy tale king Li Fan is about to try to create myths and legends for the Chinese zodiac.
Li Fan and Cen Geng naturally know that although they are unfamiliar with their people, they are very familiar with their poetry works. They have studied in depth and are definitely the first genius in the history of poetry.
However, despite this, Cen Geng gave no hope for Li Fan's story of the Chinese zodiac.
Because many people have created stories for the Chinese zodiac, and there is no shortage of geniuses. The stories created are also extremely wonderful.
However, it always gives people a feeling that this is not the story of the Chinese zodiac.
Cen Geng's academic requirements are very strict, and he feels wrong. No matter how wonderful the story is, it won't help.
Therefore, Cen Geng had hoped and disappointed again and again, and now he has no hope for creating myths and legends to modern people.
Even Cen Geng once tried to create by himself, but the result is still not ideal.
Therefore, Cen Geng believes that he should still look for answers in those boundless historical classics.
Therefore, even now I heard that Li Fan himself admired and optimistic about the creation of a story for the Chinese zodiac, Cen Geng still did not report any hope.
However, just now, Cen Sheng called and said that Li Fan's work this time was very good.
This made Cen Geng's heart a glimmer of hope, of course, it was only a glimmer of hope, he did not dare to return too much hope.
...
There is naturally a newsstand in Beijing University, and there are also children's books and magazines for sale.
Cen Geng bought a copy of "Fun Children" at a newsstand, and returned to his residence.
After that, he opened the magazine.
"Why do cats eat mice?"
"Why are there no cats or elephants in the Chinese zodiac?"
"Why is the mouse ranked first in the Zodiac?"
"In the Chinese zodiac, is there any story between the dragon and the rooster?"
"..."
Before the story began, a series of questions aroused enough interest in an instant.
Not only children, but even adults who see these questions are afraid that they have the urge to figure out the answers.
Cen Geng's eyes lit up. If he had only ignited a glimmer of hope before, then the flame of hope is undoubtedly burning a lot more now.
"Interesting, it's really different from other people's works." After Cen Geng gave a secret compliment, he began to read the text of the story behind.
From this look, Ceng Geng's whole person is not good.
Because he was so excited.
Although 55 years old is not old at all, he is far from being an old man, but after all, he is no longer young, and being too excited is not a good thing.
Therefore, Ceng Geng was not well.
However, if every time this is not good, you can exchange for such a work on myths and legends. Cen Geng thinks that this is "bad", that would be great.
After reading all the stories, they are vivid, vivid, humorous, and interesting. Every one is so wonderful.
But this is not the reason why Cen Geng is so "bad".
What really makes him so "not good" is that he feels that these stories are very compatible with the stories of the zodiac itself, and they can even be perfectly integrated.
This was the first time Ceng Geng felt this way, and this feeling was beyond his imagination.
Is this really a story created by modern people?
At a moment, Cen Geng even wondered if Li Fan saw these stories in some classics, and then published them in his own name?
Of course, Cen Geng knew that this was impossible.
...
Thank you very much, Yu is so big and rewarding again! thank!
