The vicissitudes of life have passed, and the wind is surging. With the passage of time, it is not easy for ordinary modern readers to see Cao Yun. Even if insects are prevented, people often use mothballs and sandalwood tablets. For literati who are good at imagination and nostalgia, I am afraid it is not just endless historical memories and personal thoughts hidden and accumulated in scrolls. In the thick intoxication, I'm afraid no one can tell exactly what the fragrance of this book is.
The doctor said that the smell of old books was toxic. However, scholars are eccentric by nature, and the "indescribable smell" of academic books always makes them happy to indulge, excited and even forget to integrate with their whole life. As for Mr. Liang Shiqiu's saying that "scholars are against copper stink", this is our common feeling.
This book smells good. I prefer to think that it refers to the content of the book, not just the tangible components mixed in the paper, ink and binding of the book. The statement of qigong circle is sometimes an eye-opener. It is said that people who have a deep understanding of Taoism can judge the quality of words by smelling them on paper. Ye Dehui, a modern scholar in Hunan, was a bad gentry, and was finally executed in public anger, but his cultural contribution is unavoidable for today's scholars. As a famous modern bibliophile, his familiarity with book editions has reached an incredible level. It is said that he doesn't need to open a book or read it with his eyes. He only needs to smell it with his nose, and he can make an accurate judgment on the quality of the book. A thousand years of writing has led to the proliferation of books, mixed products and mixed quality. But simply put, a book is good or bad. It can be divided into two parts based on the sense of smell.
