Chapter 18: The High School Years

This is the tenth day after Gao Zhan and Bai Lu enter school. At noon, the two finished their lunch in the school cafeteria and returned to the teaching building.

The high school has a total of four floors, each floor has four classes and a teaching office, Gao Zhan's third year high school class is the fourth class, and Bai Lu's high school sophomore class is exactly the same floor, both on the third floor. There are only two classes in between. Therefore, every time after school, Bai Lu would run to Gao Zhan's class to do homework together, after all, beautiful women are more popular.

Nearly half of the students in County No. 1 are boarders, and there are students on campus 24 hours a day, except for winter and summer vacations.

After school in the morning, after the students finish lunch, a few people who love to learn will return to the classroom to read books and do exercises, and Gao Zhan and Bai Lu are undoubtedly such good students.

Although Gao Zhan is usually very low-key in the class, his obviously more mature and stable temperament than other classmates still makes him the object of attention of his classmates, not to mention that he also has a girlfriend who is a school flower.

When Gao Zhan returned to the classroom with Bai Lu, there were already more than a dozen students in the class in their respective seats, some reading books and doing exercises, some using notebooks to play games and reading novels on the Internet, everyone did not interfere with each other, unlike the junior students who got together in twos and threes to brag and fart.

I have come to Gao Zhan's fourth class more times, and Bai Lu is no longer as shy as she was at the beginning, and the classmates in Gao Zhan's class greet her, and she will generously return her with a friendly smile.

Gao Zhan's seat was at the end of the group by the window, and the classmates in front of him were not there at this time, Bai Lu sat down in front of Gao Zhan lightly, opened the high school physics book he carried, and immersed himself in it seriously.

Gao Zhan can naturally understand the dependence on Bai Lu's current appearance, after all, she has just entered the city to go to school, and it is impossible to completely mingle with those classmates who have never been in contact with it all at once, although this phoenix is ready-made, but she is familiar with it, and Gao Zhan is alone, although Li Mingzhe also knows, but that is not her dependence.

The main thing is that if she stays in her own class, there will always be boys in the class or out of class who come and try every means to talk to her, chattering and refusing to leave, making it difficult for her to concentrate on reading books and doing homework.

Looking at Bai Lu, who was sitting in front of her and reading a book attentively, Gao Zhan shook his head and smiled, this girl is getting more and more sticky to him, and she has to find a way to make her classmates in her class get along as soon as possible.

Of course, Gao Zhan will not worry about Bai Lu's reading ability, what he wants to worry about is how to make those perverts who have sperm insects in their brains not bother her, because Bai Lu's delicate and pure temperament is too lethal to men.

Having had that experience in the hospital, Gao Zhan is quite sensitive to how to protect Bai Lu from being violated.

Bai Lu's hard work and earnestness in learning has a subtle influence on Gao Zhan. Every time I see her seize all the time to read and study, Gao Zhan invisibly always feels a kind of pressure.

Turning his head and looking around at the situation in the class, there were a few boys who were originally playing games and reading books were staring at Bai Lu with a sneaky eye at this time, touching Gao Zhan's sharp eyes, these boys quickly shifted their eyes, as if they were going to do something wrong, they all twisted their heads to the side, this is actually no wonder, a beautiful girl like Bai Lu, who doesn't like it, is called something wrong.

Gao Zhan is usually more friendly to these classmates in his class, but I don't know why, the boys in the class seem to be a little afraid of him.

There is a love for beauty, not to mention a superb beautiful girl like Bai Lu. They are all boys, Gao Zhan can still understand some of the thoughts of these male classmates in the class, as long as they don't come to find trouble, he is also happy to coexist peacefully with everyone.

With a faint smile on his handsome face, Gao Zhan withdrew his gaze, picked up a copy of senior English from his desk, and read it silently.

Before enrolling, he was supervised by Bai Lu in the village to tutor for more than half a year, Gao Zhan basically got back all the homework that was lost to the teacher, and transferred to Fengcheng No. 1 Middle School, to a large extent, to get a place in the college entrance examination, and to accompany Bai Lu to let her slowly adapt to the life of the urban campus.

Of course, the tense learning atmosphere in the third year of high school is also an effective spur for him.

In the words of the old master of the learning group, those who can be writers are all engaged in learning. You know, a writer is not an ordinary person can do, that has to be a talent to be able to do the job, in addition to the knowledge requirements, the self-discipline of people, hard-working, have quite high requirements, no perseverance, can not bear the loneliness of people, is not a writer.

It is definitely not difficult to apply the hard work spirit of code words to study and get into college.

Gao Zhan's liberal arts foundation is not bad, what is lacking is the accumulation of science, in Baijia Village, under the influence of Bai Lu, he did a lot of college entrance examination exercises through online textbooks, plus Li Qian also gave him and Bai Lu a tutor for nearly a month, and had a new understanding of how to study systematically, so that the science grades have been greatly improved. Therefore, he is quite confident that he can keep up with the class of the third year of high school and high school, and will not drag down the performance of the whole class. After all, it was Li Mingzhe who helped Zhang Luo to enter Fengcheng No. 1 Middle School, even if Gao Zhan was not afraid of losing face, he had to take care not to smear Li Mingzhe's face.

The time for serious study often flies by.

As there were more and more classmates in the class, Bai Lu realized that the owner of the seat she was sitting in might be coming to school soon, so she took out the IPPO music mobile phone that Gao Zhan specially bought for her and looked at the time, it was only ten minutes before the afternoon class, she gently spit out her pink tongue, closed the book, got up and turned around and whispered: "Brother, it's almost class, I'll go back to class." ”

Gao Zhan looked up and smiled, dropping the English book into the desk, "Go ahead, text if you have something." ”

"Hmm!" Bai Lu responded and trotted out of the classroom of class four.

At this time, the girl who was sitting in front of Gao Zhan came to her seat and saw the beautiful shadow that disappeared at the door, this tall girl who was more than 1.7 meters tall, but had flat breasts and was more outstanding in appearance, smiled and said to Gao Zhan: "Gao Zhan, your girlfriend is really good to you." ”

Gao Zhan leaned back, stretched his waist with his hands flat, looked at the beauty in front of him and smiled: "Alas! Song Yanran, it is also an original sin that a man is too handsome! ”

In Baijia Village, every day to Lu Ying, Bai Lu, Li Qian and other superb beauties, the otaku Gao Zhan who used to blush when he saw female classmates has long disappeared, and now Gao Zhan, no matter what kind of beauty he faces, can calmly talk to each other and talk eloquently. This kind of invisible change, even Gao Zhan himself may not have realized that as the so-called, the sea was once difficult to turn into water, except that Wushan is not a cloud.

"It's a cricket!" Song Yanran giggled and sat down in her seat, turned her back against the wall to look at Gao Zhan, and said with a joke: "I heard that you and your girlfriend transferred to our school together, are you two childhood sweethearts in the legend?" ”

Song Yanran is the class leader of Class 4, a typical activist in the class, she is beautiful and has good academic performance, and the head teacher of Class 4 arranged Gao Zhan's seat behind Song Yanran, which was obviously intentional.

The first classmate Gao Zhan met in Fengcheng No. 1 Middle School was undoubtedly this beautiful class president, although the contact time was not long, but the friendship between classmates was not good.

Lying on the desk with his elbows crossed, Gao Zhan looked at Song Yanran mysteriously and said: "One level higher than the two childhood sweethearts, class leader, do you know what it is?" ”

"Is it a marriage in the belly?" Song Yanran also lowered her voice and widened her beautiful eyes, looking at Gao Zhan and asked.

Gao Zhan's eyes widened in surprise, and then he gave Song Yanran a thumbs up, "It's worthy of being our squad leader, it's so smart." ”

"Cake sellers! Really? Gao Zhan, this is something that only happens in film and television novels! Song Yanran looked at Gao Zhan with a suspicious look on her face, obviously a little unconvinced of Gao Zhan's words.

"Believe it or not." Gao Zhan rolled his eyes and looked out the window.

"Cut! It's strange to believe you. Song Yanran glanced at Gao Zhan, turned around and turned the textbook out of the desk to prepare for class, and after about a minute, she suddenly turned around again and smiled at Gao Zhan: "Your girlfriend is very beautiful, you have to take a good look at her!" ”

Gao Zhan's heart moved when he heard this, "Squad leader, did you hear any rumors?" ”

"This doesn't need to be asked, Bai Lu is now a school flower-level beauty in our No. 1 middle school, don't chase too many boys after her!"

"My Fair Lady, good gentleman, alas! It's stressful! Gao Zhan replied with a pretended sigh.

"You are cheap and obedient, and I don't know what Bai Lu likes about you." Song Yanran pursed her lips and glanced at Gao Zhan, "Generally, boys revolve around beautiful girls, and your white open-air sky guards you as a treasure." ”

"Hehe, who told us to have good character." Gao Zhan lay on the desk and looked at Song Yanran's delicate side and said with a smile.

"I won't tell you, it's time for class." Song Yanran turned around and gave Gao Zhan a ladle on the back of her head, and prepared the stationery box, textbooks, and notebooks.

It didn't take long for the "bell bell" class bell to ring over the campus.

After experiencing a high school study, he knows very well that listening carefully to the class for 45 minutes is more effective than tutoring for three hours in his spare time, and he knows very well how tight his daily schedule is, from the day he entered the school, he is engrossed in every class seriously.

Gao Zhan's learning attitude made all the teachers have a very good impression of this new student who transferred to the school, especially the head teacher Zhang Haiyang paid more attention to Gao Zhan, after all, this student was personally greeted by Executive Vice President Guo Mingli.

The two classes in the afternoon were Chinese, which was the class of the class teacher Zhang Haiyang, and the main content was how to write argumentative essays and essays. I have heard the teacher talk about this kind of course before, but I have had the creative process of online novels at the starting point, and now I look back and listen to the teacher talk about the basic skills of these writings, and I feel completely different, and I have a kind of sudden experience.

The so-called book is less hated when it is used, and this is really the case, when writing, there are often many difficulties, such as the description of characters, things, scenes, environments, battles and other scenes, all of which will have a powerful feeling of inadequacy.

But in fact, these huge difficulties can be solved by high school, or even junior high school, primary school language knowledge, buried in the groping for more than half a year, Gao Zhan was stunned to find that his own exclusive know-how, in fact, can be contained in a few sentences, people have long explained it clearly, as long as the several elements of writing are mastered, and carry out, I believe everyone can code a good novel.

The teachers of Fengcheng No. 1 Middle School are undoubtedly quite strong, as the key middle school with the highest admission rate in Fengcheng, the teachers are all excellent teachers hired from all over the country with high salaries, especially the class teachers of each class in the third year of high school, and they are the elite of the elite. Zhang Haiyang, who is 45 years old this year, has won the honor of National Outstanding Teacher many times.

On the podium, Zhang Haiyang quoted scriptures and explained to the students "Why Ideological Perception and Language Expression is the Lifeblood of Linguistics", and how to grasp the ideological perception and language expression concretely, so that the students no longer have the kind of doubts that they have no way to start in preparing for the Chinese exam.

Gao Zhan listened carefully to every word and sentence of the class teacher's speech, and at the same time took notes on the key parts, and from time to time a slight expression appeared on his face, and subconsciously nodded in agreement.

This kind of course is absolutely boring for those students who don't like liberal arts, at least Gao Zhan can see that the few students around him must be pretending to listen to the class, but in fact they are in a fugue. When I was a student, even if you didn't like or didn't want to listen to the class teacher's class, you had to pretend to listen carefully, otherwise there would be no good fruit to eat.

As the course progressed, by the time of the second session, Zhang Haiyang began to focus on explaining rhetoric and context to the students.

Perhaps it was Gao Zhan's subtle gesture of nodding his head from time to time that Zhang Haiyang captured, and Zhang Haiyang wrote a model text on the blackboard with chalk: "When you enter the Tianshan Mountains, the scorching heat on the Gobi Desert is far behind, and the cold air of the snow-capped mountains immediately makes you feel as cool as autumn." ”

"Gao Zhan, please tell me how the author uses words to express his thoughts in this passage." Zhang Haiyang suddenly named Gao Zhan on the stage.

With Zhang Haiyang's roll call, more than 50 students in the class all set their eyes on Gao Zhan.

Gao Zhan was stunned at first, then got up, thought about it and replied: "Teacher, I understand it this way, the author is irritable and unhappy with the scorching heat, so he writes 'left behind', and the cold air of the snow-capped mountains is cool and refreshing, which makes people feel different, so it is written as 'sent' cold." This 'apostrophe' and 'send' in this situation clearly show the changes in the author's mood and emotions. ”

Zhang Haiyang was obviously a little surprised by Gao Zhan's answer, he looked at Gao Zhan and nodded repeatedly, "Very good answer, Gao Zhan, please sit down." ”

After Gao Zhan sat down, Zhang Haiyang praised Gao Zhan again on the podium, "Students, Gao Zhan's understanding is very correct, and the expression forms of Chinese characters are ever-changing. ”

As he spoke, he turned around and drew a circle on the blackboard with yellow chalk on the words "apostrophe" and "send" in that paragraph, turned around and continued to speak: "This sentence seems ordinary, but in fact the magic lies in these two words, these two words play the role of the finishing touch to the whole text. Gao Zhan is a transfer student who transferred to another school, and it can be seen that he is very attentive and serious in class, and he has a lot of experience in understanding words. Here, let us use warm applause to praise Gao Zhan's wonderful explanation just now! ”

After Zhang Haiyang finished speaking, he applauded. The class teacher applauded, and of course the whole class applauded.

Gao Zhan didn't expect the head teacher to come to this hand, so he was a little embarrassed to touch his head and get up, and bowed to the teacher and classmates in return.

Zhang Haiyang's praise is actually very appropriate, because for the rhetorical context in this text, if you are not a person who has a certain skill in writing, it is difficult to see the name in it, and the reason why he will name Gao Zhan to answer is actually with the idea of trying it, because Gao Zhan listened carefully to the class and nodded from time to time, which made Zhang Haiyang interested in him and wanted to try if he really had some experience in writing.

After class, Zhang Haiyang specially called Gao Zhan to the office of the third-grade group.

"Gao Zhan, your language foundation is very good, I heard that you are repeating this time, how many points did you score in the Chinese test of the last college entrance examination?" Zhang Haiyang looked at Gao Zhan with a kind smile in his eyes and asked, as he spoke, he took out a pack of boxed white sand from his pocket, obviously planning to smoke.

Gao Zhan took out a pack of Hibiscus King from his trouser pocket and handed one to the head teacher with both hands.

Zhang Haiyang took the cigarette handed by Gao Zhan a little unexpectedly, and lit the cigarette with a smile on the lighter that Gao Zhan was on.

Out of a subconscious action, Gao Zhan himself also took out a cigarette and smoked it, and suddenly realized that this was in the grade group office, and Zhang Haiyang, who was sitting opposite him, was his current homeroom teacher, so he quickly extinguished the cigarette he had just smoked, touched his head and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Teacher Zhang." ”

"Hehe, look at your smoking, you look like an old smoker!" Zhang Haiyang was not surprised by this, and motioned for Gao Zhan to sit down on the chair next to him.

"I used to stay up late to write something, and I developed this bad habit, and I hope the teacher will forgive me." Gao Zhan regained his composure.

"Oh? What are you writing about? Zhang Haiyang became more and more interested in Gao Zhan, and completely ignored Gao Zhan's smoking.

From Zhang Haiyang's way of lecturing in class without following the syllabus, Gao Zhan could see that the head teacher must have a certain degree of attainment in writing, thought about it, and replied: "I have written more than one million words of online novels. ”

"On which site?" Zhang Haiyang is obviously no stranger to online novels.

"Starting Point Chinese Network."

"The starting point is generally super long, and those who can mix on this website are talents, and you are now a contracted writer at the starting point?"

Gao Zhan didn't expect Zhang Haiyang to know the starting point, "Teacher Zhang, do you know the starting point?" ”

"Of course I know, now is the era of e-reading, the starting point is known as the world's first original portal, and if someone like us who loves creation doesn't even know the starting point, it will be outdated." Zhang Haiyang replied with a smile: "I often publish short and prose articles under the banyan tree. The long story is too demanding to write. ”

"Teacher Zhang, I smoke a cigarette, are you not vigilant?" Gao Zhan suddenly felt that Zhang Haiyang became more cordial.

"If you want to smoke, you are a repeat student, and you should get your high school diploma." Zhang Haiyang did not have the rigidity of ordinary teachers, and said with a smile: "There are few people who are engaged in long-form creation and do not smoke." ”
