Chapter 2 Tangjiang University
Along the corridor of the backyard, walk through a small arch to the middle courtyard, the whole middle courtyard is a concave structure, using the courtyard style of the front hall and the back bed. The front of the front yard is the main hall, there is a row of wing rooms in the east and west, the Tianyun Continent is headed by the east, and the east and west sides are tiled houses, but the east wing is about half a meter higher than the west wing, which shows that the east is long. In the middle of the yard is a small garden, which is connected to the backyard by a small arch. The bricks and tiles of the whole courtyard are running-in, finely made, the arches and cornices, the gold decoration, the bricks and stone wood carvings, the tall trees and the low trees in the garden, the deciduous trees and the evergreen trees, the flowers are different from each other, and the ancient vines by the wall add a bit of beauty to this small garden. The whole yard, brick by brick, grass and tree expresses the ingenious idea of natural harmony.
The main hall is used to receive important guests, as soon as you enter the gate, there is a horizontal plaque hanging on the opposite nave, and the book is chasing the far hall. A vertical plaque is hung on the left and right below the horizontal plaque, and the book is on the left: God Supreme is sincere and qualified, to filial piety and high Zeng above, following Gao Zeng's filial piety, teaching filial piety and loyalty to open the world. On the right: Household Changtai Wanfu is the same, Zungu Lizong Temple is the first, Fengyu Dou Mingde Weixin, and ploughing and Wu Zhenjiasheng. In the middle of the couplet hangs a portrait of Le Genggong, the ancestor of Chai Yuan Tang. Since the surname Li is the first surname in the Shenlong Empire, there are people from the family surnamed Li in any corner of the empire, and the history of the surname Li has a long history in the Shenlong Continent, and the earliest people with the name Li have been traced back to ancient times. Therefore, each branch of the surname Li has a hall name, so that future generations can understand who their ancestors are.
Underneath the portrait is a rectangular table of rosewood with several plates of fruit on it. There is a Taishi chair on the left and right of the table. Under the two Taishi chairs, four or five chairs with backrests and a few small square tables are neatly arranged.
There is a side hall next to the main hall, and in the hall there is a round table with several delicate side dishes on it. A little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, with long soft hair scattered on her back, thin willow long eyebrows, a pair of red phoenix eyes, black eyes, a round goose egg face, red cheeks, and a youthful atmosphere all over her body. His eyes were staring at the dishes on the table, his lips were closed, and his body was twisting and turning, as if he was resisting the temptation of food. This is Li Yichen's cousin, his uncle's daughter. The little girl's name is Li Xinyuan, she is only thirteen years old this year, not only is she slim, but she is also a martial arts genius, she is already a sixth-level cultivator at a young age, and she is the proud girl of the sky in the town, and she is the most promising to break through to the heavenly master in the same age.
Next to Li Xinyuan, there is a seventy-year-old woman who is busy, her silver-white hair is a little naturally curly, the skin on her body is very well maintained, and it is full of luster. Occasionally, when he looked back at Li Xinyuan, his eyes were full of kindness. This is Li Yichen's grandmother, named Lu Qing, the daughter of the Lu family in the town. Although she has not learned any martial arts, she is just an ordinary old woman, but she was born to the third room of the Lu family, and outsiders still have to give her a certain amount of respect on the surface. The Lu family has a total of thirteen rooms, and the force value of the third room is the highest, and Lu Shidi and Lu Tongzuo, the two congenital peak masters, are both from the third room.
Seeing Li Yichen coming in from the back hall, Li Xinyuan immediately got up from the stool, jumped up to Li Yichen's side, held his right hand with both hands and said:
"Big brother, you came here so late, you see I'm almost hungry. ”
Touching Li Xinyuan's head lovingly, Li Yichen said:
"I'm sorry, it's the eldest brother's fault, next time I promise to be early, so that our little princess will not go hungry. ”
Seeing the brother and sister playing here, grandma's eyes were full of doting, and she smiled knowingly and said:
"Okay, you two brothers and sisters, don't make trouble, your grandfather and they have something to do today, just the three of us will eat. Hurry up and eat, and go to school after eating. ”
As he spoke, he pulled the brother and sister to the table and prepared to serve it.
Sitting at the dining table, Li Yichen deeply felt the warmth of home and the care of his family.
After breakfast, the siblings said goodbye to their grandmother and walked to the college.
The college is in the northwest of the town, which was originally the genealogy of the Lu clan, and was founded at the earliest to allow the descendants of the Lu clan to better enlighten themselves. Later, due to the fact that there were more marriages between the Lu family and people with foreign surnames, other people with foreign surnames also hoped to study in it, so they began to recruit people with foreign surnames and renamed Tangjiang University.
The whole town is not very big, and from the Li family, you only need to pass through a bluestone street with characteristic arcades on both sides.
Li Yichen took his sister and walked not long before he arrived at the school gate, at this time it was close to class time, and a large group of people gathered at the school gate, and everyone rushed in.
The entire gate is built of large pieces of white marble, engraved with four golden characters "Tangjiang Academy" inscribed by Lu Shidi, and the carved hollow next to it is carved with the story of ancient sages. The bottom is supported by two fifteen-meter-high white marble pillars, and the two stone pillars are about twenty meters apart. These two stone pillars are each engraved with a line of big characters, and the stone pillar on the left reads: Ten years of study, indulgence, hardship, and no regrets
On the stone pillar on the right is: Once you have achieved it, you will remember it again, and you will do your best to have pain and happiness.
Following the crowd, after entering the campus, entering the eyes is a large playground in front of you, about 100 meters long and wide, planted with green grass, some people on the playground are practicing, and some people are sitting in the place holding books and reading, the whole environment seems so peaceful. There is an arena in the middle of the playground, which is mainly built for students to compete and compete. There are several separate school buildings on the east and west sides of the playground. Because he was not in the same grade as his sister, Li Yichen broke up with Li Xinyuan after a few words. Tangjiang College is divided into nine grades according to the different strengths of students, and the highest that the entire college can cultivate is the ninth level of people, if you want to break through to the status of the master, you must go to a higher college to study. Grades 1 to 5 belong to the lower grades in the college, and the teaching area is in the eastern part of the college, while grades 6 to 9 belong to the upper grades, and the teaching area is in the western part of the college.
After separating from his sister, Li Yichen walked to the classroom, and along the way, those little classmates all looked at him with strange eyes, and some even pointed at him in pairs and whispered. After so many years, Li Yichen has become accustomed to these eyes and strange words, and he can no longer cause any waves in his heart.
When Li Yichen walked to the door of the classroom, the class bell had already sounded, and there was still a commotion in the classroom, and the classroom was almost full at this time. Looking at the people sitting in the classroom, there were some six or seven-year-old children, all of whom were playing happily. Seeing this, Li Yichen did not smile bitterly in his heart, feeling that there was a big difference between his mentality and those young classmates around him, he walked to the back corner and found an empty seat, sat down, and took out a copy of "Five Elements Foundation" from the desk to read.
After more than nine years of school, most of the students enrolled in the same period were in the eighth grade, and the talented ones are now in the ninth grade and are beginning to prepare for the graduation trial, but Li Yichen is still sitting and studying with some newly enrolled children in the first grade.
In the past nine years, I have basically learned a lot about the teachers who teach the first grade, and I can basically memorize the content of each teacher's lectures. So now that it's time for class, Li Yichen is hiding in the corner alone and reading. Although this "Five Elements Foundation" has been used countless times, every time I read it, I will have a different understanding.
Li Yichen had just sat down when a middle-aged man walked in from the door of the classroom. This man was about forty years old, with short hair on his head standing up like steel needles, a pair of big eyes that shot cold stars, two curved eyebrows like paint, and a burly figure. Seeing the man's figure, the whole classroom immediately fell silent. This man is the first-grade martial arts instructor - Lu Zhilin, because his talent is not very high, he has just reached the status of the primary level, and he has no way to break through, so he has to be an enlightenment teacher in the first year of the academy. With a fierce look in his eyes, coupled with a deliberately rigid face at all times, these children showed a fierce and vicious appearance, and these children who had just entered school were afraid of him and called him King Lu Yan behind their backs.
Lu Zhilin walked slowly to the middle of the classroom, looked around and sat on the stool in a regular manner, trying to dress up as a very serious child, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his eyes showed some satisfaction. Just when Lu Zhilin was about to speak, he suddenly saw Li Yichen in the corner, although he was sitting there, his eyes were just staring at the book in his hand, his face couldn't help but change, he gritted his teeth lightly, and said slowly:
"Now to start the class, before the class, I want to tell you that our Tangjiang University is a place to cultivate talents, not to provide you with a place to live a mixed life, I hope that you will meet the challenges with full spirit every day, and strive to make the direct stronger. Only the strong can be respected by others, and if you don't have the strength, you can only engage in some lowly and low-income occupations. Don't want to get ahead in your life. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, swept his eyes over Li Yichen in the corner, and seeing that he had no reaction, Lu Zhilin continued:
"Now that the class begins, today we are going to talk about the five elements of restraint, and I ask the students to listen carefully and write down every sentence and word I say. In this way, you can find the best way to deal with different opponents in the future. ”
