"National teacher?" Da Lang touched his chin and began to stop talking, but the eagerness in Guo Zhongda's eyes became too intense.

"How is the prince?" This is to be understood first, it is very important to find the right boss or the right umbrella, just like in Huoyuan Village, with the old village chief sheltering, Da Lang and Twenty-eight have a very good life.

"The prince is honest and pure, even to the ordinary people, and he is also very pleasant. Guo Zhongda didn't think about it, and blurted out directly, which made Da Lang believe that what he said was true, at least in terms of performance, the prince is a good person, I don't know if he is perfect, but it's best not to be perfect. Patting his head, Da Lang wanted to know something more from the crack in the door, but it was useless, so he had to be silent.

However, what Da Lang said after being silent poured cold water on Guo Zhongda: "I am not a national teacher, and I am not a national teacher." ”

"Why?" I didn't understand, but I still didn't understand it. Not only do ministers, ministers, and generals all respect you, but even the emperor respects you, and sometimes the national teacher speaks more effectively than the closest ministers.

"There's no why, it's not, it's not. "Because I don't like it, I only do what I like." ”

"So what does Lang Jun like to do? Charging into battle, or like Mr. Jingjie, or like Zhao Gong? Or is it like playing the world with the old immortals?"

Mr. Jingjie is Tao Yuanming, Zhao Gong refers to the eldest grandson Wuji throughout the Tang Dynasty, and the old immortal is Sun Simiao, these three are legendary figures, but except for the latter two Da Lang vaguely know that it is the brother-in-law of the Medicine King and Emperor Taizong, the first one doesn't know who it is, but you can know it without asking, and it probably belongs to the category of very good literati, Da Lang doesn't care, so he doesn't ask, just shook his head: "No, what I want to do is that the best master in the world." ”

"Master?" there will always be only one master, the master craftsman is not only an honorific title, but also an official position, but also an official position at the level of the minister, and its status is not high, and the full name is to be a master craftsman. Often those who will be masters are also the ministers of the Ministry of Works, such as Yan Liben and Yan Lide brothers in the Zhenguan period, one is the supervisor of the young craftsman and the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and the other is the master craftsman and the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. are all-level figures.

But it is just a scholar, and there is a lot of gap between the status of the national teacher, Guo Zhongda was a little disappointed at the beginning, but then he was happy again, the master craftsman will be a master craftsman, and he can also use spells, when the emperor will let him be the national teacher, will Lang Jun still push back? Maybe when that time comes, people are not easy, and Lang Jun may not necessarily change his mind, besides, there is still a long way to go from the current season to the master craftsman.

"The master must first work his heart, refine his god, forge his body, be diligent in his work, be sensitive to thinking, five years of forging his body, five years of forging God, five years of unity of God and body, and a little success, he is a young craftsman. Depending on the ten years as a year, a year as a day, the details of the monograph, looking at the sky, if it is gradual, can we get a glimpse of the way of the great craftsman; another ten years of hard work, without external strength to ascend the palace, can be a great craftsman!"

This is a pair of words hanging above the main hall of the Instrument Supervision Bureau, I don't know whose hand it is, there are actually a lot of incomprehensible words, but even Li Taibai did not dare to pick a thorn back then, and it is the existence of the golden rule of craftsmen who have entered and exited the Instrument Supervision Bureau in the past dynasties and entered the WTO to get an official robe.

Because he often has to use fire oil and often go to repair his crossbow, the brocade-bellied snake is a frequent visitor to the Instrument Supervision Bureau, and Guo Zhongda can almost be said to have memorized this text backwards.

According to what he said, it takes 15 years to become a young craftsman, and it takes another 10 years to get a glimpse of the way of a great craftsman, and then it will take a few more years, and after an epiphany, he will have the qualifications to become a great craftsman.

Lang Jun has this talent, Guo Zhongda is convinced of this, and the ingenuity of his hand is that he and other people who often practice all kinds of traps and destroy organs will be admired; not to mention the breadth and freedom of his ideas, he can even think of using sesame oil with fire oil to produce a more powerful new oil; he can also do tricks; and he can also know that as long as there is a night pearl, he can easily ponder diamonds. This knowledge has already surpassed the old craftsmen who have been immersed in the Instrument Supervision Bureau for decades, and it is not bad compared to the young craftsmen.

But no matter what, if you want to become a master craftsman, you must first become a young craftsman, which no one can escape.

And to become a young craftsman, it is not enough to have talent, but also to come up with things that are recognized by the world and the imperial court, not one or two, but many. How many people are talented enough, but because of their lack of achievements, they are not allowed to become young craftsmen for life, such craftsmen are simply like carp crossing the river in Datang, countless.

Therefore, Lang Jun still needs time, so he is not in a hurry, he can afford to wait, fifteen years may be a long time for others, but for Lang Jun, it is enough to have ten or eight years.

"Good, a certain will seek for Lang Jun, what does Lang Jun want, a certain will go to help Lang Jun find it, the Tang Dynasty does not, the Hu people always have, the Hu people do not, Tubo should also have, Tubo does not, Tianzhu or Persia or Siam or Fusang must also have, in short, the south and the north, a certain will go to find something for Lang Jun. ”

"It's better to get in touch with the white turtle to see what he means, and with his help, it's easier to find something. Da Lang blinked.

"Well, I arranged for a few brothers to look for the white turtle, and I couldn't let this turtle be left alone. "Guo Zhongda will understand, the white turtle is good at lurking, then it is easy for the white turtle to take it without telling it, some things may be in a certain royal family, if people don't give it, and they can't tear their faces to grab it, then they have to take it without telling it.

One big and one small reached a certain tacit understanding in a short conversation.

Out of Weinan, it is a straight avenue, the road is paved with blue bricks, embedded with bluestone slabs in the middle, and in order to prevent the horse's hooves from slipping, the bluestone is also carved out of deep twill lines like a stone mill, some of the lines on the bluestone are still very clear, it is newly replaced, some of the lines have been worn out by half, and there are small officials on the road who are bringing a group of craftsmen to replace the bluestone.

The willow leaves on the side of the road have almost fallen, and only a few are still hanging tenaciously, swaying with the branches in the cool northwest wind, but refusing to land. When it ran faster than the team, it would stop from time to time, look back at the team, and wait for the team to come up, and when it fell behind, it would call a few times behind the team, as if complaining that they were in too much hurry.

Ten miles out of the city, I saw a person leading a horse to guard the roadside from a distance, and when I got closer, I found that it was Huang Zhu, and I saw that as soon as he saw Da Lang's carriage, he pounced on it: "Xiao Langjun, I want to go to Chang'an with Xiao Langjun." ”

"Are you willing to do it?" Guo Zhongda rode the Western Regions horse that Hu Ren gave to Da Lang, and asked with a whip in his hand. This horse is not comparable to the Dawan horse of the noble generals, but it is also a good horse, it is a head taller than the horses in the team of the brocade-bellied snake, the whole body is dark, the four hooves fall snow, and the end is handsome, so when Da Lang said to give it to him, he did not shirk it, and directly accepted it.

"Those who are willing, those who are willing, are Daddy who follows Xiao Langjun. Captain Guo, here is a letter from Daddy. Huang Zhu was also interested, so he immediately stopped, took out a letter from his arms, and respectfully handed it to Guo Zhongda.

This is a letter written by Huang Xiancheng to Guo Zhongda, to the effect that Guo Zhongda is asked to look at the past and help his unsuccessful son to say good things, so that he can follow Xiao Langjun's side, exercise, and save himself from doing nothing in Weinan all day long, so that he can covet some small cheap things.

Although he knew that Da Lang was illiterate, Guo Zhongda still handed the letter to Da Lang and said Huang Xiancheng's meaning concisely.

"Is this what does this mean for hostage?do you want to repay the love of the day?" Da Lang smiled, "Then let him follow, but first explain that when I go to Chang'an, the future is still undecided, maybe I look very majestic today, and that is also because of the brocade-bellied snake by my side, and when I wait for Chang'an, I am still just a white dress, and it is difficult to say when I will come out, he has to prepare himself." ”

"Something that is saved, something that is saved. Huang Zhu was not far away, and he heard the conversation between the two clearly, "Others don't know Xiao Langjun's ability, but a certain person knows, Baishui destroyed the Iron Guard, and the people next to him thought that it was all the credit of the brocade-bellied snake, but a certain person knew that it was Xiao Langjun who captured the Iron Guard in the end, and based on this alone, Xiao Langjun will definitely be a character in the future." ”

"That's pretty straightforward. Da Lang smiled, "In that case, then I will send you a task first, and from today onwards, you will teach me to read." "Is Da Lang really illiterate? Maybe it was like this ten days and a half a month ago, but now he can recognize some simple strokes, and some of the more cumbersome words, looking at the shape of the characters, you can also guess the meaning.

But will not write.

So it still has to be taught, Guo Zhongda is literate, can write, and writes well, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, at least in Da Lang's opinion, the words are very beautiful, but Guo Zhongda is a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, he has his own responsibilities, and it is impossible to follow Da Lang every day to teach him to learn words. As for Huang Zhu, although it took more than ten years to get Xiucai, after all, he is also knowledgeable, and I am afraid that it is not possible to teach others, but it is enough to teach literacy. As for the heart, I will talk about it later, if you can keep it, you can keep it, and if you can't keep it, you will send it away.
