After leaving the yamen lobby, Gu Xu first went to the warehouse to receive the "Changming Dan".

Today, the hunchbacked old man is on vacation - he is still watching the play leisurely on Xunliu Street.

Instead of the old man on duty in the warehouse, it was Dong Zhuangzhuang, a young handyman.

Gu Xu's note with the words "Changming Dan" was handed to Dong Zhuangzhuang.

Dong Zhuangzhuang respectfully took the note, and then rummaged through more than a dozen drawers in the warehouse, but he didn't find the "Changming Dan" that Gu Xu wanted.

"I'm sorry, my lord," Dong Zhuangzhuang lowered his head and said to Gu Xu tremblingly, "There are too many pills here, I don't know where to put the 'Changming Pill'——"

"—the second drawer on your right." Gu Xu interrupted him lightly.

With the talent of [Erudite and Strong Memory], although Gu Xu didn't deliberately memorize it, he could still easily recall where the hunchbacked old man had placed all kinds of pills in the past.

"Yes, sir!"

Dong Zhuangzhuang immediately took the "Changming Dan", bent down and handed his hands to Gu Xu's hands.

"Thank you!" Gu Xu smiled.

At this moment, Gu Xu couldn't help but admire the hunchbacked old man a little.

Don't look at the old man who fishes all day long, and either dozes off or reads the script during work hours, but his business ability is leveraged - he can accurately remember the placement of more than 100 kinds of items in the warehouse, which is something that ordinary people can't do.

…………

According to the original plan, Gu Xu planned to go back to his house first and cook a simple "health lunch" for Shi Xiaohan.

Then take advantage of the fact that you have the pill in your hand now, and use this afternoon's time to strive to break through to the realm of "Huangquan Second Song".

However, at this time, the exorcist priest Bapinzhao Mo Cui Tianyou suddenly found him.

"Brother Gu, I remember telling you before, because some of the documents in the Library Pavilion are too old and have been gnawed by rats and moths, we are currently transcribing and sorting them out. There are a lot of questions that I need to ask you. ”

"Brother Cui, I remember you told me before that I have a share of the reward for this matter."

"The meritorious reward for copying documents will be divided into one-third of you."

In the Great Qi Exorcism Division, not only can you earn meritorious deeds by doing ghost killing tasks, but you can also get some meritorious rewards by copying documents, refining magic weapons, and doing logistics work.

It's just that for Gu Xu, doing ghost killing tasks to earn meritorious service is the most efficient, so he rarely thinks about other ways.

"No problem." Gu Xu readily agreed.

He never liked it when his plans were suddenly disrupted.

Unless money is given - no, merit.

After all, in this world that requires a lot of resources to become stronger, what restricts Gu Xu's cultivation speed is not his talent, but his poverty.

Then Gu Xu followed Cui Tianyou to the Yamen Library Pavilion, which he was very familiar with.

At the desk by the window, there were several scholars in shirts and square scarves on their heads, who were immersed in writing.

"Brother Cui, I remember that there are no miscellaneous servants in our yamen who are responsible for managing books and materials? Why did you invite the students of Yishui County School? Seeing the costumes of these scholars, Gu Xu felt a little strange.

"The handwriting of those handymen is really clumsy," Cui Tianyou sighed and explained, "It's like a ghost drawing, and I guess only they can understand it."

"The handwriting of these scholars looks delicate and dignified."

Gu Xu walked over and took a look, and found that it was indeed the case.

The characters of these scholars are like woodblock prints, upright and formal, horizontal and vertical, neat and tidy.

Gu Xu knew that this font was called "Taige Style".

Because the Great Qi Dynasty took the imperial examination, it was required to answer the paper in regular script; Those with poor handwriting, even if they are full of money, will be on the list.

Therefore, the scholars will work hard to practice the "Taige style" to avoid losing the "volume points" due to writing problems, which will lead to the ten years of cold windows in vain.

At this time, the scholars also noticed Gu Xu's arrival.

They got up one after another, bowed to Gu Xu and said, "Xiao Sheng has seen Master Gu." ”

In fact, these scholars are much older than Gu Xu.

When they called themselves "Xiaosheng" in front of Gu Xu, Gu Xu always felt a little weird.

"Do you recognize me?" He asked.

"Who doesn't know the reputation of Master Gu's genius?" A scholar spoke, "Sect Zhou has described your deeds in front of us more than once. He said that people like you are by no means things in the pool, and they will inevitably rise to the top in the future and become high-ranking and powerful people like the national teacher and the head of the department. ”

He is worthy of being a disciple taught by Zhou Sect!

This kung fu of blowing rainbow farts is quite the true legend of Zhou's teachings!

Hearing this, Gu Xu sighed silently in his heart.

"Has there been any recent movement in your county school?" He asked after a moment's pause.

He remembered that when he went to Yishui County last month to learn to exorcise ghosts, he had mentioned to Zhou Jiaoyu that the county's feng shui was not good and needed to be improved.

The scholar replied: "Recently, the county magistrate sent someone to survey the terrain east of the county school, and wanted to build a 'Jinxian Building' there - but unfortunately Yishui County has been financially tight and insufficient funds recently, so the construction has not started for a long time. ”

Gu Xu nodded.

It seems that in this world, he is not the only one who is short of money.

…………

In the following period of time, Cui Tianyou took out a lot of damaged books and asked Gu Xu a lot of questions.

"In the third volume of the Feihong Sword Technique, there are two different versions of the description - 'light as a feather' and 'as powerful as a feather'. Brother Gu, do you know which one is correct? ”

"The second. The essence of "Feihong Sword Technique" lies in rising and falling lightly, breaking with skill, and dialing thousands of catties in four or two. If you pay too much attention to momentum, it will go against its original intention. ”

"In a Feng Shui book, it is mentioned that 'mulberry pines, cypresses, pears and locusts do not enter the palace house' - if these trees are planted in the house, it will invite misfortune. However, we often use the word 'mulberry' to refer to our hometown. There is obviously a contradiction here, Brother Gu, how do you think this should be explained? ”

"The reason why mulberry trees are not planted is because 'mulberry' is homophonic to 'mourning', which is considered unlucky. But in reality, it's just superstition, not feng shui. The mulberry tree does not have any effect on yin. This Feng Shui book should be based on folk sayings. ”

“……”

In this way, the two asked and answered, and quickly solved many difficult problems.

The scholars next to them also unconsciously stopped what they were doing, and looked at Gu Xu, who was answering all kinds of tricky and out-of-the-way questions, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"How did this Master Gu's brain grow? How could he remember so much nonsense with unmistakable accuracy? The scholars just couldn't believe it.

Thinking that they occasionally memorized the Four Books and Five Classics that they had studied hard day and night, the scholars had to painfully admit that the gap between people was really big.
