The county name of Fengcheng is Longguang Academy, which is located to the east of the county office, near the east gate.

The academy was already quite large-scale as early as the Song Dynasty, and according to research, the Confucian Temple in the academy was built in the 12th year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, that is, in 1142 AD. This temple of literature has been preserved until the 21st century and still stands, but in a special era, it was transformed into a student dormitory of Fengcheng Middle School, and the glazed tiles on the roof of the temple were also removed to build the toilet of Fengcheng Middle School.

The academy was named Longguang, and these two words also have a very good history. In the "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" written by Wang Bo, a genius of the early Tang Dynasty, there is a sentence of "Wuhua Tianbao, Longguang shoots the ruins of bullfighting", in which the dragon light refers to Fengcheng.

Legend has it that during the Western Jin Dynasty, Zhang Hua, an important minister, watched the sky at night, and noticed that there was often a flash of purple gas between the bullfights, and Lei Huan, a person from Yuzhang, told him that this was the dragon light emitted by the sword underground, which came from a place called Fengcheng. Zhang Hua then supplemented Lei Huan as the commander of Fengcheng County, and after Lei Huan took office, he dug up a stone letter under the prison cell of the county government, which contained two swords, a Longquan and a Tai'a. This is the origin of the allusion of the dragon light shooting bull fight.

Time flies, and the legends of the past are no longer verifiable, but in Longguang Academy, there is a small pavilion called the Sword Box Pavilion. In the pavilion is a four- or five-foot-long hemp stone with grooves, which is said to be the stone letter dug up by Lei Huan back then, and the two swords are hidden in the grooves.

Longguang Academy covers an area of nearly 100 acres, as soon as you enter the door, it is the Song Dynasty Confucian Temple mentioned earlier, there are left and right temples on both sides of the Confucian Temple, set up a clothing pavilion, a precept hall, etc., and then there is the Liujing Building, that is, the library of the year. The lecture hall is located to the east of the Temple of Literature, and further in, there are buildings such as reading rooms and dining halls, which are similar to a small academy in later generations.

The academy is full of green trees and fragrant flowers, but it is indeed a good place to cultivate the mind, but I don't know how many talented people can have leisure and leisure to experience this beautiful environment.

Su Hao has been to Longguang Academy a lot of times, and in the past, the academy's teaching was called Gu Kegeng, who was an amiable old master. Every time Su Hao came over to ask him for advice, he could always give Su Hao some advice, but in view of Su Hao's mediocre talent, the effect of this guidance was also very limited.

Gu Kegeng left at the beginning of the year, and Su Hao never came to the academy again after that, so he didn't know the new teacher Wu Zhicheng that Fang Mengjin said. According to Fang Mengjin's introduction to Su Hao, this Wu Zhicheng is a very erudite Confucian, but he is very knowledgeable and has a big temper, and it is said that he is never polite to people he looks down on, and there are many students in the academy who can't keep up with their brains and have been repeatedly trained by him.

Fang Mengjin and Su Hao left the county government and walked for ten minutes to the academy. Fang Mengjin was a frequent visitor to the academy, and when the handyman guarding the door saw him, he hurriedly saluted and told Fang Mengjin that Wu Zhicheng was giving a lecture to the students in the lecture hall at this time, and asked Fang Mengjin and Su Hao to go to Zuoyu to rest first.

"No need, Mr. Wu's classes have always been exquisite, and if I have this opportunity, how can I not go to audit."

Fang Mengjin said, and led Su Hao to the lecture hall. When I came to the door of the lecture hall, I heard someone in the room explaining the way of the article in a sonorous voice. Fang Mengjin didn't dare to disturb, so he pulled Su Hao to stand outside the window to listen to the class, and praised it quietly while listening.

Su Hao also listened to Wu Zhicheng's lecture with his ears sideways, from the perspective of a Ming Dynasty talent, Wu Zhicheng's lecture was indeed very exciting. But now this Su Hao doesn't have much interest in such things, in his opinion, whether a truth is true or false, whether it is good or bad, does not depend on what the ancient sages say, the kind of thing that even a fart has to be argued for "Zi Yue" has no value except for wasting time.

"Is there a guest outside the window?" Wu Zhicheng was talking vigorously in the room, and suddenly saw the figure shaking outside the window, so he shouted.

Fang Mengjin smiled, walked to the door, and saluted Wu Zhicheng: "It was Fang who heard Mr. Riqian's high arguments, and he couldn't help but dance with his hands and feet, disturbing Mr. Lecture, forgive sins, forgive sins." ”

"Haha, it's Brother Wu Hui who is here, it really makes the Academy shine, please come in." Wu Zhicheng warmly invited Fang Mengjin. Wu Zhicheng's character is Riqian, and Fang Mengjin's character is Wuhui, both of whom are scholars, and in order to reflect the intimate relationship between each other, they are commensurate with each other's words.

In the classroom of that year, there was no teaching discipline, the teacher was happy, he would tell everyone a few more words, and if he was unhappy, he would let everyone endorse himself, and maybe a few unlucky people would get up and play the board, in short, everything was the teacher's final say. Wu Zhicheng is a talented and temperamental person, for people he doesn't like, he won't allow the other party to enter his classroom at all, and Fang Mengjin belongs to some talents, which makes Wu Zhicheng feel more likely, so Wu Zhicheng invited him into the classroom regardless of the class.

Fang Mengjin was originally going to talk to the students, so he didn't refuse, and pulled Su Hao into the classroom......

Wu Zhicheng beckoned Fang Meng Jin and the two to sit down on the chairs on the side, and then asked Meng Jin as if no one was around, "Brother Wu Hui, why did you have time to come to the academy today?" ”

Su Hao thought it was funny, when he was in class, Wu Zhicheng was actually able to receive guests in the classroom, and he was still talking, and he didn't know what the students thought. He peeked at the students below, and found that the students were sitting in their seats with books and reading silently, as they probably had happened more than once.

Fang Mengjin pointed at the students below and said to Wu Zhicheng: "Fang Mou came to the academy this time to borrow some disciples from Mr. Riqian to help. ”

"Oh? Does the county government have an urgent document to make? Wu Zhicheng asked.

Fang Mengjin shook his head and said, "It's not a clerical matter, but the most important thing in the county at the moment, digging wells." ”

Wu Zhicheng said: "Digging a well? Brother Wu Hui, you're not here to entertain Wu, are you? You asked my students to dig wells? ”

Fang Mengjin said: "How dare Fang entertain Mr. Riqian, I borrowed students from you, not to dig wells, but to help our little brother Su Hao survey the well location." Mr. Riqian, let me introduce to you, this is Su Hao, the newly hired master of the workshop by Lord Han of Zhixian County, who is specifically responsible for drilling wells. ”

"Master Kobo?" Wu Zhicheng looked Su Hao up and down, "I've only heard of Master Qiangu and Master Xingming, when did you come out with a master in the workshop?" Also, this little master Su seems to be from a show, I don't know where it is? ”

"Back to Mr. Wu, the student's family lives in Longkou Village, Zhegui Township, and he was a talent who was admitted to the county last year." Su Hao stood up and saluted Wu Zhicheng as a disciple.

Wu Zhicheng continued to ask in an arrogant tone: "Why didn't last year's Xiucai enter the academy to study?" ”

"Mr. Hui, the student is the last talent in the county, and he is not qualified to enter the academy." Su Hao still replied politely, and when it came to the last place, he didn't have the slightest look of shame, because in his heart, he felt that the ranking of this kind of exam was really nothing worth caring about.

Hearing the conversation between Su Hao and Wu Zhicheng, especially hearing Su Hao say that he was the last, many of the students below burst out laughing, and some students even made a very exaggerated "haha" sound to show their contempt for Su Hao.

"The last talent is not bad." Wu Zhicheng said, having said that, but when he turned around and spoke to Meng Jin, the taste was completely different: "Brother Wu Hui, even if Lord Han is in a hurry to dig a well, he can't go to the doctor if he is seriously ill, right?" There is no shortage of learned people in this county, why let a first-class talent take on this important responsibility? ”

Mr. Riqian said cautiously. Fang Mengjin's face was a little unbearable, this was a slap in the face in front of Su Hao, even if you Wu Zhicheng have the ability, you have to have a little demeanor, okay? In front of a 17-year-old, how do you compete with others?

"Mr. Riqian, although Su Hao is young and lacks poetry and books, he still has some unique attainments in digging wells. He was once instructed by a Buddhist missionary, and he was familiar with the way of the people. The day before yesterday, five wells were surveyed in Zhegui Township, and all of them were well drilled, and it was precisely because of this that Lord Han hired him to be the master of the workshop. Fang Mengjin hurriedly told Wu Zhicheng about Su Hao's glorious deeds.

When Wu Zhicheng heard this, he looked at Su Hao, and saw that the other party's face was not shocked, and he was a little annoyed at the moment, he said to Meng Jin: "This matter of digging wells, my Ming knowledge may not be weaker than the knowledge of the Franc machine, I think that the Franc machine is just a small country, and the people who drink the blood of Mao Ru, what can they do?" Perhaps, some people happened to guess the location of a few wells, and then attributed it to some Yiren doctrine. Brother Wu Hui, you are a well-educated person, and you must not be fooled by false words. ”

If he hadn't known Wu Zhicheng's temper, Fang Mengjin would have wanted to run away immediately. He and Hanwen are the ones who have passed the school examination Su Hao's ability, why are you Wu Zhicheng talking nonsense here. He turned his head to look at Su Hao, and saw that Su Hao had a smile on his face, which seemed to be a little sarcastic, and his heart moved, and said, "Su Hao, what do you justify what Mr. Wu said?" ”

Fang Mengjin had seen Su Hao's methods of cleaning up the servants in the workshop, and at this time, seeing that Su Hao was not in a hurry about Wu Zhicheng's provocation, he decided that Su Hao must have a means to fight back, so he simply pushed Su Hao out. If Su Hao can convince Wu Zhicheng, it is of course the most refreshing thing. In case Su Hao and Wu Zhicheng have a dispute, it is not too late to mediate.

Su Hao understood what Fang Mengjin meant, he stood up again, saluted Wu Zhicheng, and said, "What Mr. Wu said is very true, the student is just a low-end talent, how dare he be arrogant in front of the great Confucian? The students did not know that Mr. Wu was well-versed in the past and was only eight years old, and this time he came to the academy with Master Fang, in fact, he wanted to ask Mr. Wu for some questions. ”

Wu Zhicheng said coldly: "If you want to ask me for advice, at least you have to show some talent to prove that you are worthy of my guidance, right?" Su Hao, do you think you have a talent that I am willing to teach you? ”
