"Look at the hour, it's time to change shifts to guard the mountain gate, if I go in to report, I'm afraid that I will miss the time to rest, you just stand here and wait for half an hour, wait for the next shift to come, let them pass it on!" The little boy pretended to be serious, but his right hand stretched out slightly, obviously begging for the running fee. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qin Shan was speechless for a while. But he saw Prime Minister Qin reach out and take out a small handful of copper coins in his arms, count five carefully, and put them in the young man's hand.

"Humph! Looking well-dressed, he is also a stingy person! The young man looked at the five copper coins lying in the palm of his hand, and pouted with displeasure.

"Wait here! I'm going to pass it on. The young man glared at Prime Minister Qin arrogantly, turned around and walked towards the mountain gate, said a few words to the other teenagers, and went directly to pass the word.

"Father, you're too stingy! It's only five copper coins. Qin Shan covered her mouth and quipped.

"If you give him five silver ingots, we will be fat sheep in the eyes of these people. You are here to be stumbling over. Give him less, and they won't bother to remember who you are. Prime Minister Qin smiled and educated Qin Shan.

"Yes! Shan'er made a note of it! Shan'er has to become a stingy bag so that she won't be remembered by the villain! Qin Shan also replied with a ghostly ghost.

After a while, I saw a young man who had gone to pass the message, followed by an old man with a big belly.

"Brother Xiao! I brought my relative's daughter, Brother Xie Xiao is accommodating! Shan'er will be handed over to you in the future! I hope Brother Xiao will take care of you! Prime Minister Qin replied.

"Brother Qin is serious! Send the girl to our Tianyuan Academy, please rest assured! My brother Xiao promises that no one will bully the girl! Steward Xiao's chest thumped.

The little boy next to him looked at Xiao Guan with disdain, but he could only return to his post sadly, continue to guard the mountain gate, and the five copper coins in his pocket balanced his red eyes a little.

Prime Minister Qin jumped on the horse, pulled the reins, and turned around to say goodbye: "There are still important things to do, don't pass it again, if you are free, come and thank Brother Xiao again!" Take care! He left in a hurry without looking back.

Shan'er watched her father slowly leave her, thinking about the few days she had gotten along since she had traveled, and her father really doted on her, and this love moved Shan'er very much and cherished it. Tears blurred his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart: "Father, Shan'er will work hard to grow up!" Wait for Shan'er to protect you! ”

"Girl, don't cry. Come with me into the mountains! Steward Xiao looked at the fat girl, because she received the money, her attitude was kind. took Shan'er into the mountain gate of Tianyuan Academy.

It's exactly what you imagined. The mountain is full of aura, lush trees, and pleasant scenery. The mountain stone paves the road, and it is not difficult to walk.

After walking for a mile or two, he did not climb up the mountain again, but followed the path to the side, but the road was still wide.

After walking another five or six miles, it seemed as if there was no road ahead.

"That's it, girl." Steward Xiao looked back at the silent Shan'er, but he liked her calmness and silence. Steward Xiao collects money to put the child in school, not once or twice, the first time he meets such a quiet child, he can't help but look twice.

As he spoke, when he came to the end, he found that it was not that there was no road, but that there was a sharp turn in front of him, and after turning the mountain bend, he saw a valley hinterland. The area is very large, hundreds of acres. At the entrance to the valley, there are about sixty or seventy low-rise houses connected to each other. In the depths of the valley, there are also twenty or thirty elegant small houses. In the middle of the mountain, there is a 100-square-meter hall, just like the auditorium of the university, which may be used for teaching.

At first glance, the flat land of the valley is full of medicinal fields, and there are also many young people in coarse cloth and white clothes scattered in the medicine fields, the younger ones are seven or eight years old, and the older ones are fourteen or five years old, busy in the fields. The medicinal fields are divided into many areas, and different herbs are grown in each different area. The medicinal fields are fertile and moist, and the herbs are also stout and vibrant.

"This is the first valley of Tianyuan Academy, Yaotian Valley. It is also the first stop for your studies, which lasts for three months. The front row of houses you see is the residence of the students in the outer courtyard. In the back row is the residence of the Inner Academy. The temple in the middle is the place where classes are taught. ”

Steward Xiao enthusiastically introduced Qin Shan.

"For three months here, you have to learn the names, habits, and pharmacology of all the herbs you see in front of you. Meals and lodging fees are required for the students of the outer courtyard. A tael of silver a day. If you have money, you can pay the bill directly, and you will have your own brothers and sisters to teach you one-on-one. If you don't have any money, you have to go to the fields to work, deduct the cost of food and lodging, and you can go to the temple to teach you only in the morning class every day, and you have your own teacher to teach you. ”

Shan'er took the liberty of asking. Looking at the medicine field, it is only a few dozen acres, and there are a hundred and ten kinds of medicinal herbs, if you pay the silver, and have the guidance of your senior brothers and sisters, won't it take a few days to learn, how can it take three months? ”

"The outer courtyard of Tianyuan Academy is only for the selection of talents, and what we learn is also rough things. But the college is broad and profound, and the girl should not be underestimated. If you learn the knowledge as soon as possible, you can apply for the assessment, pass the assessment, and then you can participate in the audit, and like the disciples in the inner courtyard, you can enter the classroom to listen to the lectures. How much you can learn depends on your own memory, understanding, and talent. If you really don't understand or don't want to learn this skill, you can also apply to study in the library. If you don't go to the Scripture Pavilion, you will have to charge again. ”

"Shan'er went out to learn art, and her father still gave some silver, but it wasn't too much. I paid the fee for these three months directly, but it was still enough, but I was worried about my future life. I don't know what advice Steward Xiao has. Qin Shan still kept her mind scheming, pretending to be naïve, and asked expectantly.

"Haha, looking at you girl, the old man likes it in his heart. The old man thinks that Shan'er should study as soon as possible. When I learned something, in this Tianyuan Academy, there were many places where I could make money. The bigger the skill, the faster the money will come! "Steward Xiao has a matter-of-fact introduction.

"Oh? Can you still make money studying art here? Qin Shan's eyes lit up.

"That's nature. After learning medical science, he can assist pharmacists in dispensing medicine and alchemy; If you learn to cast, you can assist the caster to create utensils; After learning calligraphy and painting, you can assist the painter in painting; After learning the piano skills, he can assist the pianist in composing music; I learned martial arts, and I can compete in the ring......"

"Girl, no matter what skill you learn, it's better than what you are doing now by lying on the ground and catching insects. The academy also has a quest hall with many quests listed, and each quest has a gratuity. When you become stronger, maybe you will complete a task, and you will have to work hard for three years! Steward Xiao was completely defeated by Qin Shan's pretended dependence and adoring eyes, and he actually said it in detail for the first time.

"Thank you, Steward Xiao, for pointing out the maze for Shan'er! Steward Xiao is really good! The nicest person Shan'er has ever met! Qin Shan's eyes lit up. He praised it without hesitation.
