After lunch, Chan used his spare time to teach Alex literacy. At this time, the mercenaries, who were already a little far away from them, suddenly walked further, and even the fat man Akara quietly let his people withdraw some distance, leaving an empty wilderness for the three people under the shade of the trees.

Knowledge is so precious and an intangible treasure that everyone wants to learn, but no one dares to eavesdrop on it, because that would mean offending both the teacher and the student. Campbell, dressed in a pale gray robe, watched from a distance, and she wanted to get involved, but ...... Even if she was a sorcerer, she didn't dare to casually violate the underlying rules of this era.

Chen Xiansong broke a dead branch, found a piece of yellow sand with no grass next to it, and wrote the four Chinese characters 'Alex' in cursive, Song, and small letters...... In the lingua franca, your name is roughly pronounced with these four words, what do you think? ”

"The words are beautiful." Alex licked his dry lips gently, and it looked like a man who had been alone for decades suddenly saw a woman with all kinds of amorous feelings. He, not only him, but all the common people in this world, their thirst for knowledge is rooted in their soul and flesh: "Teacher, although I don't understand anything, I really think these words are very beautiful, I have also seen common Chinese in the city, maybe I can't understand it, but I really think that their writing is definitely not as beautiful as what you write, teacher." ”

Chen Xiansong smiled, his specialty is calligraphy and landscape painting, anyone who likes his works will feel happy. He gave Alex the general in his hand, pointed to Xiaokai and said, "You imitate these four words and write them once." ”

Alex took a deep breath, took the branch, and imitated it according to Xiaokai, but the more he wrote, the more his hands trembled, because he didn't understand the order of strokes, so for beginners, Chinese characters were too complicated. After nearly two minutes, he finally finished the four words, and then he was sweating profusely, shocked and frightened. Compared with Chen Xiansong's beautiful little letters, his characters are one big and one small, crooked, and clumsy to make people feel ugly.

Alex was scared and was about to endure the teacher's scolding.

"It's hard, isn't it?" To his surprise, Chen Xiansong's tone was very gentle: "When I wrote for the first time, it may be even more ugly than what you wrote. I've been practicing for more than ten years to get to where I am now. You don't have to rush, take your time, I'll teach you the most basic things first. ”

Chen Xiansong drew a 'horizontal' on the ground, and then said: "This is the most basic stroke in the universal text, and it is also the number ''1', you practice it a thousand times first, and then come to Bai Min, she will teach you accounting, well, that is, what you call counting everywhere, you must practice seriously, and you are not allowed to be lazy and write a lot." ”

Alex nodded repeatedly, even if Chen Xiansong asked him to be lazy, he would never do it.

Practicing calligraphy requires a high degree of concentration, Alex for Chen Xiansong's words, as if a holy decree, he used a branch to write on the ground one by one, the first horizontal is serious, without any point of perfunctory, such practice will progress quickly, but it is also very wasteful, not long, only to draw more than 100 'horizontal', Alex is very tired.

As soon as a person is tired, it is easy to make mistakes, and as a result, his 'horizontal' is becoming more and more crooked, and when he makes a mistake, he is easy to be anxious, and it is easier to make mistakes in a hurry. Chen Xiansong has the habit of taking a nap, he was leaning on the big tree to take a nap, and when he woke up, he found Alex's dilemma, he rubbed his eyes and said: "Don't worry, you take a rest first, I don't want you to practice a thousand times in one day, you can do it in five days." I'll test your results when the time comes. ”

Alex breathed a sigh of relief, he threw away the dead branch in his hand, rubbed his right wrist, and giggled hehe, not knowing what he had in mind.

Soon, the merchant group set off again, Chen Xiansong stayed in the car, and Bai Min made the cashier form together, and when the merchant group was stationed in the evening, he and Bai Min had just finished processing the rough cashier format. Generally speaking, in the new human era, it is only necessary to make a copy of the template according to the template, a matter of a few seconds, but at this time, it can only be solved by hand. ,

After 'serving' the two teachers, Alex began to eat, gobbling up the black bread and nail-sized barbecue jerky in his mouth, and then began to practice the homework that Chen Xiansong had given him. A large group of mercenaries consciously distanced themselves from him. Although Alex is the son of the head of the regiment, everyone has not laughed at Aslan in person, but in fact, they are more or less contemptuous in their hearts, but now the situation has to change, they know that little Alex is slowly growing wings from today, until one day he soars into the sky.

Sitting by the fire, Chen Xiansong was eating, and was about to talk to Aslan about how to use this cashier form, but the other party waved his hand: "Two Excellencies, to be honest, I don't understand this thing, and I don't understand what you said." He learned from the aristocratic style he had seen before, and spread his hands a little stiffly and unnaturally: "So, you just have to tell us the results, and you don't need to explain." ”

This is full of trust and decentralization, and the effect of the emotional suppressive agent on Chen Xiansong's body is getting weaker and weaker, and at this time he can already make a wry smile normally: "Aren't you afraid that we will lie to you?" ”

"Alas, I know that the two of you are not ordinary people, just teaching my youngest son's tuition is normally enough to hire our mercenary group for you to work for more than ten years, and you don't have to covet our property."

"Then I can only thank Uncle Xie for his trust." Chen Xiansong wiped the breadcrumbs on his mouth: "By the way, uncle, don't call us Your Excellency, it sounds awkward, you can call me Xiao Chen or Xiao Song." ”

"How can this be?"

Chen Xiansong said solemnly: "Well, if you don't call it that, I won't teach Alex to read." ”

Aslan could only compromise with a wry smile: "Okay, little ...... Song, you are the most unexpected I have ever seen...... Person. He originally wanted to talk about the nobility, but thought that the two might be hiding their identities, so he changed his tune.

At this time, a person walked by, and the three turned their heads to look, but saw a golden-headed woman. She was dragging a Qian Yi in her hand, her eyes were staring at Chen Xiansong, she wanted to speak, but she couldn't speak, her face was red and white.

Aslan asked curiously, "Campbell, what are you doing here?" ”

It seemed that his questioning gave Campbell some courage, and the latter said in a slurred voice, "Your Excellency, I want to be with little Alex...... Learn Computing ...... I beg your permission. She hung her head and lifted the money bag in her hand: "Here are all my savings now, a total of 36 gold coins, and some scattered silver and copper coins, I know that there is very little money, not enough to learn precious knowledge, but I will continue to serve Your Excellency in the future, and I will work hard to earn money, until Your Excellency feels that the amount of tuition is enough, I will not leave ......"

Chen Xiansong thought for a while and nodded, as a natural person in the new human era, perhaps the methods and channels for obtaining knowledge are too easy, and he does not think that knowledge is a very precious thing: "No problem, you can not collect money, but I have a question for you, I heard that ...... Are you a sorcerer? ”

Campbell nodded happily, and then said: "Your Excellency, money is a must, otherwise I dare not stay by your side to learn knowledge, it is a blasphemy of knowledge, and it is also disrespectful to the ancestors who created this knowledge." ”

"Okay, then I'll take half of it, and in the future, you can hand over half of the money you earn, no matter what, people always have to have some money by their side, otherwise something will be difficult to deal with." Chen Xiansong casually said a condition, and then continued: "Continuing with the topic just now, you are a sorcerer, I want to ask, what is a sorcerer and what is the definition?" I've never been exposed to this 'profession' and am quite curious! ”

Campbell was stunned for a moment, the sorcerer is a special title that everyone knows, but the young man in front of him doesn't know what to do. However, thinking that this person would be her teacher in the future, she didn't dare to put a puzzled look on her face, lest the other party mistakenly think it was ridicule, which would not be good: "A warrior is a person who converts the amount of elemental power into physical strength, and a sorcerer is the person who transforms the amount of elemental power into ability." ”

"Ability? What are you capable of? ”

Campbell flicked her fingers, a ball of fire appeared in front of her, and she said, "I can fly." ”

Chen Xiansong whistled in surprise, then turned his head to look at Bai Min: "What do you think?" ”,

"Flame produced by rapid oxidation of unknown substances in the air." Bai Min's eyes flowed through the data bands of two crystal fireflies: "The analysis is complete, the optimization of the equation is complete, the molecular structure of the unknown substance cannot be analyzed for the time being, and there is a lack of tools." Bai Min raised her slender jade fingers, and then, on her fingers, a white ball of light appeared, floating quietly.

"So you're also a sorcerer, or are you an incandescent flame?" Aslan jumped in surprise. Campbell also has an expression as if he saw the gods descend to earth.

The computing power of cyborgs is so powerful that they can virtualize the details of the lives of nearly a million people in a city in their brains, Bai Min is a new type of cyborg, and his ability is even stronger, it is not a strange thing to analyze a small special ability, Chen Xiansong was surprised by another thing in her words: "Unknown substance? When did you find out? ”

"As soon as 'birth' was detected with brain waves, it was so obvious that it didn't require any tools." Bai Min said in a calm tone: "Because it is harmless to the human body, and you didn't ask, so I don't need to explain." ”

Chen Xiansong looked at the ball of light with some envy: "Tsk, it's really a majestic thing." By the way, Xiaomin, can I learn this technique. ”

Bai Min shook his head: "Not for the time being, because your brain is highly coordinated with the soul, it is affected by soul thought waves, and it is unable to accurately call the brain waves and biological impulses generated by the cerebral cortex to regulate unknown substances." If you concentrate on research and exercise, with your physical strength and brain development, it will take about forty years to achieve simple control of unknown substances. ”

Chen Xiansong sighed regretfully: "To put it bluntly, I don't have the talent in this area, right, forget it, anyway, we natural people, there is no need to compare this ability with you new humans and cyborgs." He turned his head to look at Campbell: "Just now you said that you can fly, can you perform again." ”
