Chapter 26 Literary Salon~)
Then, under Yu Qing's murderous gaze
Yue Jing reluctantly retracted his head and continued to remain silent.
"Ahem"
Seeing that Lin Xiaowan and Yu Qing were engaged in chatting, Cheng Xing couldn't sit still.
He planned for a moment and then regrouped and returned to the battlefield:
"School Brother Yu Qing."
"You are a young talent in Chinese language and literature majoring in Huadong Normal University. I guess you should have some knowledge of literary works from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad?"
"I don't know, do you know much about Western literature?"
"ah?"
Yu Qing was slightly stunned.
This question has touched the blind spots of knowledge of him, a fake college student.
"It's okay"
Yu Qing gritted his teeth and answered, but Cheng Xing immediately discovered the flaw.
He immediately seized the opportunity and his strengths and weaknesses:
"When it comes to Western literature, I personally admire Mr. Dickens of England."
"He is the main representative of British realistic literature in the 19th century, and his works are artistic."
“In addition to Dickens, there is also”
Cheng Xing talked endlessly and showed his knowledge, while Yu Qing could only sit aside and watch Cheng Xing wear b.
As soon as Yu Qing was silent here, the scene immediately became Cheng Xing's personal stage.
The more he spoke, the more excited he became. He didn't even stop talking for several minutes.
Yu Qing was unhappy, but felt powerless:
There is no way, who makes me uneducated?
Cheng Xing repeatedly mentioned dozens of foreigners' names, which he had never heard of.
His eyes were dark and he couldn't speak at all.
Seeing that Yu Qing was completely shut down, Cheng Xing finally stopped his magical powers with unfulfilled satisfaction.
Then, he deliberately smiled and added a few more words:
"We major in foreign languages. We usually have to read more foreign works to train our professional abilities."
"so"
"I have read the original English versions of the literary works I just mentioned."
"oops"
Cheng Xing paused and teased intentionally or unintentionally:
"School Brother Yu Qing."
"Don't you Chinese and literary people also need to use foreign literature and Western literature?"
"How come you know so little about Western literature?"
""
Yu Qing remained silent.
He finally couldn't contain the depression and leaned against Lin Xiaowan's ear and asked in a low voice:
"Senior sister, do you really have to read so many original Western literature books of your foreign language major?"
"this"
Lin Xiaowan pondered for a moment and replied:
"I want to see it."
"But he just said too much."
"If it's really so powerful, it would be a pity if he didn't study for a doctorate or become a professor."
"Understood"
Yu Qing nodded and roughly guessed Cheng Xing’s thoughts:
As for this, Cheng Xing just bullied him and didn't understand this, so he just blew up all the money and said, "Is it a mess?"
"When it comes to Western literature, I do not know much."
"But, I don't know at all."
Yu Qing cleared his throat and said seriously:
"For example, I have been reading the representative masterpiece of contemporary magical realist literature recently, the epic masterpiece "break the vault of heaven" written by the new generation of genius writer t.c.potato."
"Senior Cheng Xing, you specialize in Western literature. I believe you should have some understanding of this writer, right?"
“t.c.potato?”
Cheng Xing frowned slightly.
To be honest, he had no idea about the new generation of genius writers mentioned by Yu Qing.
And although he was bragging so happily just now, he was just a knowledgeable guy who only knew a rough idea. He would reveal his half-bucket of water after a little deeper talk.
Cheng Xing was silent for a moment, but in the end he could only answer with a tough bullet:
"I've heard it."
"It's just that I have limited time to study and I don't have the chance to read his masterpiece!"
"That's a pity!"
Yu Qing sighed softly and introduced it seriously as Cheng Xing bragged just now:
“We can talk about the book "break the vault of heaven" in a lot of topics:
"War, hatred, love, sex and violence, weird spaces and imagination can be framed into complex scenes of world maps, obscure metaphysics, and even the author himself is a speculative mystery."
"There are hundreds of characters with names and surnames in the book, which makes people sigh at the author's boldness and genius."
"The characters, plots, scenes, and all descriptions are just to match the main line and are discarded after use. Many plots have nothing to do with the story. Poetry, tongue twisters and other genres are interspersed freely in the text, making people only scratch their heads and frowns."
"But these seemingly unrelated elements eventually condense into a whole, creating a magical world with a huge size and a magnificent scale that ordinary people cannot imagine..."
""
Cheng Xing felt his scalp numb when he heard this. In order not to show his timidity, he could only pretend to express his feelings:
"sharp!"
"The Western literary world is indeed full of talents."
"Since there are such a great masterpiece, I really wish I could not read it as soon as possible!"
"Senior Brother Yu Qing?"
Lin Xiaowan was also fooled by Yu Qing so much that he couldn't find Bei, and asked curiously:
"break the vault of heaven"
"Is there no official Chinese translation of this book yet?"
"Yes, I have"
Yue Jing, who remained silent all the way, finally couldn't help but speak:
“break the vault of heaven”
Yue Jing pondered for a moment, and finally said quietly:
Chapter completed!
