Chapter 729: Hell, these days even mechanical goldfish run to bookstores to read

Regarding Su Shang's request, Xiao Cong, the artisan from the Artisanship Commission, agreed very readily.

After agreeing, several more messages were sent over in succession.

"Speaking of which, this guy is quite amazing; he went straight to the bookstore to gather inspiration."

"It seems to be to shake his head and critically review 'The Cloud Collection'!"

"This guy has a high status in the literary world; if I could write better than him, I would definitely be able to win Jing Zhai's heart."

Seeing the messages sent by Xiao Cong, the artisan from the Artisanship Commission, one after another, Su Shang fell into deep thought.

Was this guy dreaming?

"So please help me buy a copy of 'The Cloud Collection' while you help me find the poet-immortal mechanism."

While Su Shang was thinking this, Xiao Cong, the artisan from the Artisanship Commission, continued to send a message.

Seeing this message, Su Shang didn't continue to reply, but showed the chat record to Bai Lu and the others.

The group immediately decided to prepare to head to the bookstore.

"Years have passed, it should be a beautiful scene in vain. We will meet again if fate allows."

When the graceful poet watched Lin Mo and the others leave, he also bid them farewell.

And Su Shang and the others headed to the Sanyu Bookstore.

When they arrived at the Sanyu Bookstore, they saw a goldfish mechanism at the entrance of the Sanyu Bookstore, and many people had gathered around it.

"Speaking of which, why did this mechanical goldfish run out? Won't people from the Artisanship Commission come to deal with it?"

"It looks like there are no signs of Mara-Struck; this should be a normal mechanical goldfish, but how did this mechanical goldfish run to the Sanyu Bookstore?"

"Hell, damn it, these days even mechanical goldfish run to the Sanyu Bookstore to read."

"Probably some research by someone from the Artisanship Commission."

"People from the Balance Commission have also been here, saying that someone will come to take this mechanical goldfish away, so we don't need to worry."

The people surrounding the Sanyu Bookstore looked at the floating mechanical goldfish and discussed it one by one.

Many people left after looking, without staying at all.

There were also idle people who stayed to look a few times and then left.

People came to look and left one after another.

"Found it."

Seeing that mechanical goldfish, the Yin Qing San hurriedly spoke, brought Su Shang and the others in front of this mechanical goldfish, and hurriedly said: "This is a metrical poet."

"Thanks for the invitation, I'm on the Luo Fu, just got off the skiff."

Looking at Su Shang and the others walking over, the mechanical goldfish spoke slowly.

However, when it just started speaking, it saw the Yin Qing San and immediately said dully: "It must be Xiao Cong who sent you to supervise. The task is too troublesome, I cannot follow your orders!"

"Hello, please hand over the jade abacus."

Su Shang thought for a moment and said: "Then we'll go our separate ways."

"Human, don't think I don't know you're scolding me in a roundabout way; do you think I want to speak in five-character segments like this? The communication efficiency is too low."

The mechanical goldfish metrical poet Mi said: "But who told us that our first mission is to do this."

"Poetry relies on the special rhythm of language; only arrangements and combinations that conform to the rhythm can be called poetry. Master Xiao Cong specially created me to master the 'norms' of poetry."

"As long as you get my approval on 'rhythm' and 'antithesis', I will naturally hand over the Inspiration Jade Abacus. Otherwise, don't hinder me from continuing to read poetry and learn."

"Understood."

Hearing this, Su Shang subconsciously looked back at Qing Que, Lin Mo, and Bai Lu, and then nodded heavily.

With Lin Mo and the others there, she wasn't afraid at all.

"First, I want to examine your 'rhythm'. Poets make characters with the same rhyme appear regularly in lines of poetry, thereby creating a beauty of sound circulation—that is, rhyming."

Seeing Su Shang nod in agreement, the mechanical goldfish said: "Listen well, my previous line is: 'Picking chrysanthemums and drinking wine after dusk'."

"Hmm."

Hearing this, Su Shang scratched her head immediately and subconsciously looked at Qing Que.

"There is a faint fragrance filling the sleeves."

Qing Que thought for a moment and immediately sent a message to Su Shang, letting Su Shang see it.

Su Shang saw it and recited it immediately.

"Hmm, not bad, continue." ===== CHAPTER 730 =====
