In Chang 'an, with the release of the Legend of Sword and Fairy I, it also caused a lot of controversy, especially those Confucian scholars Wen Ling and Li Han who had conflicts with Wandering Know-it-all. They had been criticizing and playing dirty tricks since the last time they left in public in the Emerald Jade Restaurant.
Looking at the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 on the table, Wen Ling, Li Han, and a few other Confucianists sat together and sneered.
" This Wandering Know-it-all has written another novel that can attract the attention of the masses…"
" Hmph, this time, we'll find the loopholes and flaws in his book. We can't let him off easily. We must find the flaws so that he has nothing to refute…"
Hearing this, the group of Confucianists looked at each other, gathered together, and immediately began to flip through the pages.
After Li Han flipped through a few pages, he couldn't help but sneer. With a disdainful expression, he said," The main character is called 'Li Xiaoyao.' This name is not bad, but his identity is a waiter. With such a lowly background, letting such a waiter be the main character, I think there's something wrong with this Wandering Know-it-all's brain…"
When the other Confucians heard this, they couldn't help but nod in agreement.
" The identity of a waiter doesn't look like it at all. The more I think about it, the more I find it ridiculous. No one will like it. I'm sure no one will buy it because of the popularity of the Legend of the White Snake…"
" That's right, that's right. You can write this down. When the time comes, you can publish a post to attack him…"
The group of Confucians continued to listen to Li Han's recitation. Soon, they saw Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling 'er meeting for the first time in the lotus pond. He paused for a moment and drank a mouthful of tea to moisten his throat. Then, he began to recite.
" In the lotus pond surrounded by clouds and mist, there's a shadow. In the pond, there's a…"
As he read, Li Han's voice started to tremble. The expression on the Confucian scholar's face became even stranger. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the plot of this chapter was not quite right. The words used were very wrong. Wen Ling could not help but interrupt Li Han who was reading.
"Wait, Brother Li, did you read the wrong novel? The more the plot was, the more it felt wrong.!”
" That's right. Is there a mistake on this page…"
Li Han continued to read. He couldn't help blushing and shouting,"What an insult!" He quickly pushed the Legend of the Sword and Fairy to the side and said to the other scholars,"I read it correctly just now.”
When the Confucianists heard this, they all huddled together. When they looked up, their faces turned red. They usually read the Confucian books of sages and sages, which was called serious. Even if they really went to a brothel, they had to say that it was to cultivate their sentiments and abide by the rules. Otherwise, if word got out, it would be detrimental to their future career development and their literary reputation.
However, now that they had suddenly seen such an exciting thing, the unimaginable impact almost shattered their worldview.
" This…This is too humiliating…"
"This Wandering Know-it-all simply knows what shame is. He actually wrote this kind of thing! It's really like our scholarly status!!”
"You must criticize him! Criticize his shameful behavior! You're insulting our status as scholars!"
The red-faced and parched Confucianists opened their mouths one after another. They looked at the Legend of the Sword and Fairy on the table in bewilderment.
After a series of attacks, the Confucian scholars finally stopped. They looked at the Legend of the Sword and Fairy lying quietly on the table and exchanged glances with each other. They couldn't help but whisper.
"Do we still want to look down?!”
Without a doubt, this was a big problem. The leader Wen Ling and Li Han looked at each other and raised their eyebrows slightly. Then, they said in a deep voice,"Of course, let's continue watching. Everyone, don't forget our original goal. We are all here to ruthlessly criticize this Wandering Know-it-all!!”
"We have to work hard to criticize him! Criticizing him as the main character was not good! Ruffian aura! This is simply giving the people of the Great Tang a bad image!!”
After a round of verbal attacks, Zong Rusheng and the others finally stopped and politely bid farewell to each other. As for the Legend of the Sword and Fairy, they returned it to its owner and returned it to Li Han. Wen Ling, who was standing beside them, recalled the first time Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling 'er met at the Lotus Pond. He couldn't help but feel moved. He coughed and whispered," Brother Li, can you lend me this book to take a look?" I want to criticize this Bai Xiaosheng again…"
Upon hearing this, Li Han smiled embarrassedly." This…Brother Wen, to be honest, this little brother also wants to go back and criticize it in detail.”
Upon hearing this, Wen Ling immediately felt a little regretful. He bid farewell to Li Han before his eyes. Then, he looked conflicted and carefully found a relatively remote bookstore in Chang 'an.
He deliberately picked a time near evening. After looking around, he sneaked in and half-covered his face, asking Xiaosi to bring him a copy of the Legend of Sword and Fairy. He wanted to go back and 'criticize' Bai Xiaosheng's story about Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Linger's first meeting in the lotus pond and their wedding night with a righteous gaze.
Just as he paid the money like a thief and was walking out with the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 half-hidden, he bumped into a few other Confucians in Confucian robes. The books in their arms fell to the ground. Coincidentally, he knew these Confucians.
Looking at the books of the Legend of Sword and Fairy on the ground, Wen Ling and the other Confucianists became a bit embarrassed.
"Ahem…are you all prepared to take the book back and 'criticize' it?!”
" Hehe…That's right, Brother Wen. What a coincidence. Everyone wants to go back and 'criticize' them a few more times…"
After picking up their respective books, the few of them hurriedly separated. They did not forget to spit on the ground beside them and secretly cursed,"Pervert."
