After the college entrance exam, he began to become a male god of extraction.

Xu Qin followed the 'path guidance' and found a book:

The 21st year of the Shengqi reign.

"Shengqi" was the reign title of Emperor Xuanwu of the Longhan Dynasty, Liu Jun, meaning the beginning of a prosperous era.

The reign of Emperor Xuanwu truly lived up to its name, marking the beginning of an unprecedented golden age that surpassed any other golden age in history.

However, the twenty-first year of the Shengqi era was also a very special year, in which many momentous events occurred.

Xu Qin took the book down from the bookshelf.

"The Twenty-First Year of the Shengqi Era" is a well-known history book and essential reading for studying the Xuanwu Emperor's reign.

"How long has it been since anyone touched this book?"

"A love letter from sixty years ago? Has no one touched it in all these sixty years? Or has no one discovered this letter inside?"

Xu Qin flipped through the book and sure enough, he found a very thoughtfully made envelope inside.

But it looks as old as the book itself, giving the impression that it's been lying in a corner and no one reads it.

Xu Qin opened the envelope, took out the letter, and saw the delicate handwriting on it, which was clearly written by a girl.

Xu Qin now possesses the legendary calligraphy style known as "Iron Strokes and Silver Hooks," making him essentially a master calligrapher. He not only has the skill level of a great calligrapher but also the ability to appreciate calligraphy at that level.

Just by glancing at the letter, a scene flashed through Xu Qin's mind:

She was a lovely and lively young girl, sitting on a chair, playfully swinging her legs. She pouted, holding a pen between her upper lip and her delicate nose, her beautiful eyes blinking as she looked at the handsome young man in front of her who was reading "The 21st Year of Shengqi".

The girl's name is Ying Lingxiu, and the boy's name is Chi Guanyun; they are Xu Qin's seniors.

However, those were senior students from sixty years ago.

"My beloved Guanyun, seeing this letter is like seeing you in person... I don't believe in heaven, earth, ghosts, or gods, but seeing you, I wish for a reincarnation... I only wish my Guanyun to eat well, sleep well, and be healthy and safe..."

The letter is about Ying Lingxiu's departure to accompany her father to take up his post in Beihanzhou. Therefore, this letter is not only a love letter, but also a farewell letter to Chi Guanyun. The words are full of the girl's love for the boy and her reluctance to part.

Xu Qin was already somewhat moved after just a quick glance.

no way.

He is Chinese, and now he can be considered a scholar.

The Chinese have always been drawn to the idea of ​​love and longing, and scholars, with their many thoughts, are inevitably prone to sentimentality.

At this moment, Xu Qin was overwhelmed by a double dose of emotions, making it difficult for him not to be moved.

He has no plans to extract features at the moment.

Instead, they went to the library's computer area.

This is where you can look up student information, even for past students.

I just don't know if students from 60 years ago can be found.

Because this letter was probably never sent, perhaps Chi Guanyun never even saw it, otherwise it wouldn't be sitting here in the library gathering dust. We don't know what happened to the two of them afterward.

Xu Qin instinctively hoped that the two senior students would end up together.

However, he couldn't help but think of another problem.

Ying Lingxiu went to North Hanzhou, which is separated from the East Asian mainland by the entire Pacific Ocean, truly a world apart.

Can long-distance relationships succeed?

Before long, Xu Qin sat down in front of the computer and started searching.

"Huh? They actually managed to find it?"

Xu Qin didn't expect that the Chi University student system on this computer could actually find senior students from sixty years ago, but not those entered sixty years ago, but those entered later.

"Chi Guanyun...post-graduation plans...politics...Ying Lingxiu...post-graduation plans..."

"Your mom, you should have known better than to investigate!"

Xu Qin was completely numb.

Chinese people may appreciate the idea of ​​"love at first sight," but no one wants to experience it in real life.

However, this time he truly hated the sea and the sky.

Ying Lingxiu's family took a cruise to Beihanzhou, but encountered a storm in the Pacific Ocean, and all the people on board perished at sea.

That happened exactly 60 years ago.

Xu Qin suddenly felt a sense of melancholy, as if the world had changed beyond recognition.

Sixty years is a lifetime for many people; not everyone can live to be sixty.

"Sometimes you really shouldn't be so impulsive, or you'll just be asking for trouble."

Xu Qin was deeply moved this time.

Because he instinctively hoped that the two senior students would eventually become a couple and have children.

Now, sixty years later, if both of them were still alive, they would probably be surrounded by children and grandchildren, enjoying their twilight years.

The saying "holding hands and growing old together" is something most people would hope for.

However, the world is full of both hatred and love.

Xu Qin closed the computer screen, no longer interested in investigating.

[Special Item: A love letter from sixty years ago.]

[Retrievable: Memories spanning time and space.]

[Note: Unclaimed items older than ten years are exempt from the two extraction rules.]

Xu Qin suddenly realized.

The original two extraction rules:

First, the special items you own.

Second, items that belong to others but are given to you to use.

If the item is unclaimed, it can be retrieved if it has been unclaimed for more than ten years.

"Is this the third type of special item?"

"No, it should be the fourth type."

Xu Qin thought of another possibility: self-conjuring special items, such as the "invisible air-conditioned room," which was a "collection of resentment towards the sun among freshmen during military training."

【Whether to extract? 】

"extract."

Extraction successful.

[Gained: Memories that transcend time and space.]

[Note: This is a record of the love story between Ying Lingxiu and Chi Guanyun.]

Grade: Bronze.

After extracting the characteristics, Xu Qin immediately had a new understanding of Ying Lingxiu and Chi Guanyun's love story in his mind.

At this moment, Xu Qin was like a reader of a book, observing every little detail of the young man and woman's interactions from a god-like perspective.

There is no sea of ​​hatred or sky of passion here, no vows of eternal love, but there is the vastness of heaven and earth and the enduring affection.

"So sweet? It makes me jealous!"

"I'll write your story into a novel sometime when I have the chance!"

Xu Qin thought to himself.

In fact, this memory is perfect for applying the concept of "romanticism" that he's been researching lately.

There are many kinds of romanticism in literature, including love, but not the kind of fast-food love that ordinary people think of.

Instead, it's more like Li Shangyin's lines: "Zhuangzi dreamt he was a butterfly, and the Emperor Wang's heart was entrusted to the cuckoo."

"By the way, System, if we directly merge this feature, will this memory be lost?"

Xu Qin currently possesses three bronze attributes, so he wants to synthesize a silver one.

No, if memory-related properties are used in synthetic materials, the memory can be retained.

"But honestly, these memories aren't really that useful."

Xu Qin felt that even if the memory was lost after the synthesis, it wouldn't matter.

This memory is only useful for Xu Qin's writing; otherwise, it's completely useless.

Because this memory contains nothing else but the little details of the love between the two senior students.

If it involves some great treasure, then Xu Qin will have to think it over carefully.

"System, combine the characteristics of a Hanting long-time smoker, a disguised businessperson, and memories spanning time and space to create a silver attribute."

[Synthetic Properties: Hanting Hotel Smoker, Disguised Businessperson, Memories Across Time.]

[Synthetic Attribute Grade: Silver.]

[Current host's development path: fitness, writing, reading, learning.]

Please select a development path.

"Um?"

"Why is there an extra path?"

Xu Qin noticed that there was an additional "learning" path this time.

He had been thinking about how to create a new path recently, and now this has happened.

"I choose to study."

You have selected the domain: Learning.

[Characteristics are being synthesized...]

You have gained the trait: Single-Minded Focus.
