Whew! Running to a gate behind the palace in one breath, Zheng Xiu'er stopped in place and gasped, she walked so fast that she was a little tired now.

The guards under the city gate saw that she hadn't left for a long time, and couldn't help shouting: "Hey, it's forbidden to stay here, don't leave quickly!" The other party shouted loudly, with some murderous aura, Zheng Xiu'er was so frightened that her heart was pounding, but thinking of her task, she still mustered up the courage to walk over: "I, I'm here to find someone!" Without waiting for the guards to inquire further, Zheng Xiu'er took the initiative to take out the imperial doctor's token: "This is my master's token, he asked me to go to the palace to find my ancestor!" The guard's face improved, and he took the token and checked it to make sure that there was nothing wrong, and then he said, "Okay, you wait a moment!" After saying that, the guard took the token and turned around and entered the city gate, probably to inform someone, Zheng Xiu'er stood in place and waited anxiously for a long time before the guard led a father-in-law back.

"You are Imperial Doctor Shen's apprentice?" The father-in-law held Shen Cuo's imperial doctor token in his hand, glanced at Zheng Xiu'er with sharp eyes, and spoke like a duck being choked by the throat.

Zheng Xiu'er tried hard to hold back her laughter, she made a gesture and explained in a regular manner: "Yes, my name is Zheng Xiu'er, and I am the apprentice of the imperial doctor Shen Cuo, my master asked me to go into the palace to find my ancestor and ask him to identify the newly developed medicine!" Saying that, Zheng Xiu'er took out the porcelain vase again, but the father-in-law on the other side didn't mean to reach out to pick it up, but continued to ask with a calm face: "What is the name of your ancestor?" ”

"Han Jiang!" Zheng Xiu'er hurriedly reported the name of the ancestor, and planned to explain the specific words again, but who knew that the father-in-law immediately showed a friendly smile on his face: "Hehe, it turned out to be the apprentice grandson of Imperial Physician Han, you just said no, come in with me!" ”

Poetry and literature in the world are the way, and literati are not only cultivators, but also immortals, and they are the existence that everyone envies.

Because it is a peaceful and prosperous era, the status of readers has been unprecedentedly improved, which is true, because the article naturally contains the gas of heaven and earth.

Good at using it, you can not only cultivate yourself, but also defend against the enemy.

Hongchen Dao, the world's first major sect, is said to be able to go directly to the heavens, and the origin of Hongchen can be solved.

It's not easy to enter Hongchen Road, the number one sect in the world, how can you go if you want to? Powerful families may be able to donate a large amount of land and treasure before they can be allowed to enter the cultivation, or exchange for one or two "Shou Yuan Pills" that can increase their life span by ten years.

The children of the poor family can only be selected by virtue of their amazing talent.

Those who can cultivate, one in a thousand.

In the morning, the sun had just shown its first glimmer, and most of the disciples of the Red Dust Dao had already gotten up to study.

Ordinary low-level disciples wore sect-standard green clothes, and their hair could only be tied casually with a hemp rope.

Whether you come from a poor or rich family, here, you can't tell from the clothes.

This is to prevent the disciples who have just entered the door from having an unstable Taoist heart and like to compare their family backgrounds, so it is stipulated that they must dress uniformly, and no one is better than the other.

"Senior Brother Zhang, morning."

"Senior Brother Wang, you are also early."

Such greetings can be seen everywhere, which can be described as Yin Yin students, thriving.

Hongchen Daomen is a penance, and from the perspective of Zhang Yuan, who was born in a poor family, the atmosphere is not bad.

At least, no one here looked down on him because his family was poor and his mother had remarried since he was a child.

Wu Zhou has an open atmosphere, and it is actually very common for women to remarry, and they will not be overly harsh.

Seeing that no one around them noticed them, Senior Brother Wang sneaked up and looked like a small vendor selling some kind of forbidden books in the bazaar, which made people laugh.

"Senior Brother Zhang, I heard that your Xiaokai writing is good, and it just so happens that the master arranged for me to transcribe the "Spiritual Collection", I wonder if I can help? Of course, there must be a lot of money for brushing. ”

Zhang Yuan's cultivation progress was slow, but he wrote well, and he was very famous among the disciples of the Nine Grades of the sect.

"Although I can transcribe it, the handwriting is not your handwriting, and your master will not be unable to see it, and you will be punished when the time comes."

Zhang Yuan said.

"It's okay, this time it's because I borrowed someone else's book, and I only have three days, and the master knows that I will definitely not be able to finish copying, so he agreed that I would find someone to help."

Senior Brother Wang said.

In the Wu Zhou Dynasty, although the way of learning was unprecedentedly prosperous and prosperous, the popularity of manuscripts was still insufficient.

Basically, there are only one or two teachers in each small village, and they bring some collections of books, all of which are related to scientific research, and are issued by the government at a discount and asked someone to copy the Four Books and Five Classics.

If you want to see anecdotal acrobatics, poetry and songs, then you must go to the state capital-level study and cultural and educational workshop, where there will be.

In this environment, even if you have money, it is hard to find a book.

If you want to buy it, people may not want to sell it.

If it is a genuine masterpiece of a famous artist, it is to be used for heirloom treasures, not to mention borrowing, and it will not be viewed at all when you are idle.

Fortunately, Senior Brother Wang's master, Wang Luochuan, is not an idle person.

He is a Taoist who has already cultivated to the Yuanying realm.

Therefore, I got an opportunity to borrow from a friend the "Spiritual Collection" by Wen Yanting, who came to Shanshui Xingji.

On the mountain path, Senior Brother Wang, that is, Wang Cong, has a very affectionate attitude towards Zhang Yuan, unlike others who look at him coldly.

Without him, Wang Cong used to be a merchant's son, although he was diligent and studious, he could not participate in the scientific examination because of the law.

Therefore, Wang Cong admires Zhang Yuan, who was born as a poor disciple, but can become a child at the age of twenty.

Tong Sheng, whose status is one level lower than Xiucai, refers to the candidates who did not get the ranking in the first exam, but passed.

If you don't come to cultivate, you have a good chance of being admitted to Xiucai and changing your fate.

If there is a talent, the whole village will be honored, not to mention the tax exemption for three years, and the village chief's political achievements will be recorded beautifully.

Moreover, his family can obtain the right to tax exemption for ten years, so it can be said that one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog have ascended to heaven.

Selected in Hongchen Road, there is also this treatment.

Therefore, in the end, in order to make up enough medical expenses for his sick father, Zhang Yuan gave up the scientific expedition.

Because of the low-grade elixir issued by Hongchen Dao every month, if given to mortals, it can prolong life.

Zhang Yuan is a well-known filial son in ten miles and eight townships, seeing that his father's illness can't get out of bed, let alone farm work, the family may be cut off.

In the face of life and death, what is the dream of a poor scholar? In order to prevent his younger brother and father from starving to death with him, he was ruthless and gritted his teeth, and gave up the promising scientific expedition.

Two years ago, Zhang Yuan was still indignant in his heart.

In the past two years, I have experienced the penance of the Red Dust Dao, but I can also see it.

What's more, in the Wu Zhou Dynasty, the glory of a scholar was not much lower than that of a scholar.

The great power among many readers is also a master of poetry and literature.

For example, the "Spiritual Collection" to be transcribed today, the author is Wen Yanting, a representative of the Shanshui Pastoral School, this is a famous casual cultivator, who cultivates to the Yuan Infant or above, once the tribulation is successfully practiced into the body of a golden immortal, you can achieve a real longevity without borders, and your face is not old.

Transcribing a manuscript of a book that is powerful in loose practice will definitely help in reading.

Not to mention the pen fee.

Now, although Zhang Yuan said that he had stepped into the fairy gate, the family was still in a worrying situation, and his father's life was hung with the next grade spirit pill, and he was worry-free for the time being, but he did not have a few years of longevity.

Increasing Yuan Shou can only be done by the top-grade "Blood Qi Pill", but it is a cultivation resource that can only be awarded by a seven-grade disciple.

Zhang Yuan has been in the door for three years, but it is still nine products.

Besides, the cost of my younger brother's reading and practicing calligraphy is not a small amount.

Although the family has the help of the government and exempts the cost of studying, the father takes medicine and the younger brother buys paper and pen to practice calligraphy, which is a lot of expenses.

Poor and rich in martial arts.

However, for the peasant family whose income can only rely on three acres of thin land, it is not easy for the whole family to have enough to eat. Zhang Yuan used to practice calligraphy, using the juice of green walnuts, dipped in water, and written on a wooden board, and he took this to hand in his homework, but he was praised by Mr.

Now, the family situation is very good, and my younger brother can only afford to use the cheapest jute paper, which is made of straw as the main material, with rough workmanship and a little grinding to the touch.

Zhang Yuan had some scholarly arrogance in his heart, and he was unwilling to accept relief for a long time.

Moreover, he knew very well that although he now had the help of his neighbors, what were they trying to do? It's just that he hopes to get the elixir treasure that Zhang Yuan can get from the Hongchen Dao Master.
