"My lord! In fact...... In fact...... The kid is here to report to the official? ”

Li Kui held back half his salary before he could hold back such a sentence, he didn't expect that the middle-aged man wearing ordinary linen clothes and stained was actually the county master, you are too tricky, you have nothing to do to play micro-service private visits.

The young master just wanted to be comfortable, but he didn't expect to hit the muzzle.

"From Baizhang Village?"

"Master Mingjian!"

"Tigers?"

"The eldest lord has subtle insight, the blessing of the people of Yishui, and the blessing of the people of Mengshan......"

"This official just came back from Baizhang Village, do you think I should know?" Zhou Yuan flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "Don't put a high hat on me, this official won't eat you, if you dare to coax this official, what will happen?" ”

Li Kui turned his head to look at Li Qing: "Uncle, you won't be allocated, right?" ”

"It's not that serious." Li Qing originally thought that Li Kui was really scared, but he didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to laugh a little. This kid doesn't know what he's been thinking all day? Still in the mood for a joke at this time? Aren't you just bragging? The people in the yamen often do this, do you see who has been tattooed? But it's really going to anger the big man...... After guessing, the eldest lord must be angry: "Li Kui, you don't have to worry, the eldest lord will at most treat you for the crime of disrespect, and he will no longer care about you after beating you with twenty sticks." ”

originally thought that Li Kui would be frightened when he heard that he was going to be beaten, but this kid became angry.

Not only Li Kui was tough, but even Li Hong, who was with the old patriarch and the same clan, didn't care at all.

Is Li Kui afraid of being beaten?

Practicing martial arts was beaten first, Li Kui's outer kung fu, in the early years, the big stick was beaten every day, and there was no accident. The officials in the yamen are heavy, can they be heavier than the spiritual master?

This scene made Zhou Yuan look at it, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised, this kid is simply a hob meat.

If it were a different person, I would have been frightened to the point where I heard that I would suffer from flesh and skin. But look at Li Kui's guy again, he actually pouted, Shi Shiran stood up, but he was not afraid, the big-footed girl crossed the threshold, puffed out his chest and said: "The school will be examined, it's not a big deal, I should go." ”

The lobby is a place to deal with major matters, and Zhou Yuan did not take Li Kui there, but took him to the second hall. This place is a little more remote, but no one else can see the content of the two exams. Besides, Zhou Yuan didn't agree, who would dare to see it?

When he came to the second hall, Li Kui was still in the mood to look around, disappointed and disdainful. The main reason is that this official office is too ordinary, and it doesn't even have a bit of grandeur.

The county government of a medium-sized county, what kind of magnificence does it want, is this what Zhou Yuan can afford as a seven-grade county order?

After receiving the fragrant tea sent by the servant, Zhou Yuan was a cow drink, and he didn't look like an official, but shouted after drinking: "Happy!" ”

It's quite a bit of the heroism of the Jianghu people.

Putting down the teacup, he carefully looked at Li Kui, even if he was stared at by Zhou County's order, and saw the hairiness in his heart, Li Kui pretended not to care. His eyes seemed to look at Zhou Yuan with a god, and he told himself vigorously: Don't panic, don't be afraid, it's a cabbage.

If Zhou Yuan knew how to read minds and knew what Li Kui was thinking, he wouldn't have to take the school exam, and this call would be arranged directly.

After a while, Zhou Yuan finally couldn't help but stretch out his hand and point at Li Kui and asked, "You said you are literate, what have you learned?" Have you ever studied the Book of Filial Piety? ”

Li Kui shook his head.

"What about the Thousand Words?"

Li Kui still shook his head.

""Hundred Family Names"?"

Li Kui continued to shake his head.

Zhou Yuan's luck calmed down, he felt deceived by the black boy in front of him: "You don't learn this, you don't understand that." What will it be, literacy and literacy, the most taboo is to be ambitious, you need to go step by step, if you can't even write, this board can't escape. ”

"Whoever said it wouldn't, I would." Li Kui really knows how to write, and he is not afraid to use a brush, but he has not practiced his words at home, but it is enough to coax Zhou Yuan, the old man.

Zhou Yuanqi had a toothache, he didn't want to be angry with a kid who didn't open his eyes, and he went to beat a mountain kid for a while for no reason, but he would be laughed at by people for being small. But Li Kui, this kid! It's too annoying, and there is some truth in what he said, he looks like a knowledgeable person, but in the end it's an embroidered pillow and a bag of grass, and he can't do anything, and his mouth is still stubborn, and he refuses to admit defeat at all.

"Come on, pen and ink are waiting."

Li Kuike is in trouble, how can there be a private school around Baizhang Village, there is not even an enlightened pedant, if he wants to say that he can read, he has to say that he is alone, otherwise he will show his face when he checks it.

Who is it right for?

Come on, it's him!

Master Lingzhi, you have always been guilty of many crimes, and now you can be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good, so let the kid get through the test first. Li Kui really sat on the edge of the desk with the real old god on the ground, too short and uncomfortable, but it didn't matter so much. I added two strokes to the inkstone pond with a brush, and pondered, what to write? It's too long to be troublesome, it's tiring, and it's too ordinary to be able to do it first? After thinking about it, I remembered that when I was bored in the past, I followed the stream to learn Xiaokai, and at that time he bought a lot of red rice paper (rice paper with very shallow handwriting, printed with famous models).

Li Kuixin said: "It's him!" ”

[Mahaprajnaparamita Heart Sutra], when he wrote these words, he pouted in dissatisfaction, and seemed to have regressed a lot.

But no matter what, keep writing.

...... [Color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is empty, emptiness is color]

Zhou Yuan was shocked, this kid seemed to really know how to read as he said. The pen is also quite regular, and the writing is quite serious. Curious, he quietly stood up and stood behind Li Kui to watch Li Kui write. The more Zhou Yuan looked at it, the more uncomfortable his heart became, his brows furrowed, and he couldn't bear it.

word, no problem.

But there is a big problem with what is on paper. It's a sutra, right? Thinking of Li Kui's knowledge in his school examination, this guy is good, not to talk about "Thousand Character Essays", not to mention "Hundred Family Names", "Analects", and "Mencius"! It's better for you to write a sutra for me.

Are you going to enter Beijing to take the Jinshi exam?

Or did you go to the position of a guest monk in Daxiangguo Temple?

The latter is much easier than the Jinshi exam.

Upright and small, the words are not beautiful, but there is already a chapter law.

Calligraphy pays attention to the five combinations: Shen Yi is practical, the time is moist, the occasional desire to write, the feeling of favoritism, and the paper and ink.

And Li Kui's words are echoed by at least two words, which are harmonious and moist, and the paper and ink are compatible. At his age, it's not easy. Practicing according to Zhao Mengfu's words every day, he has copied this "Heart Sutra" for half a year, at least it should be a little ink, right?

After writing the last word, Li Kui took a deep breath and said with a smile: "It's okay!" Quite a bit of verve. ”

Zhou Yuan really couldn't cry or laugh, he had never seen such a brazen kid, he praised himself, and he was not stingy with words. He stood behind Li Kui and said in a deep voice: "Can you read?" ”

Li Kuixin said that I had written it all out, and I couldn't read it, so I read it immediately.

After reciting it again, Zhou Yuan was unspeakably uncomfortable, mainly because this kid was reciting Buddhist scriptures like a war, and his momentum was like a rainbow. If the little monk in the temple recites the scriptures like this, I am afraid that he will be hung up and beaten by the old monk. After it was over, Li Kui blinked his big copper bell-like eyes a few times and asked, "Do you want to recite it again?" ”

To chant is to chant sutras.

People who don't understand often think that monks chanting sutras are fooling people, and they can't hear a word clearly. In fact, if you chant sutras, you naturally have to chant them in Sanskrit, and if you haven't learned them, how can you understand them?

"Heart Sutra" has Sanskrit songs, Li Kui also specially learned, specially for pretending to be used, and has not had the opportunity to use it after learning it. He was in a hurry to perform, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and recited the scriptures by himself. The more Zhou Yuan listened, the more stupid he became, and he couldn't speak Sanskrit!

After reciting it again, Zhou Yuan was stupid, and it took a long time to calm down and ask, "This is what the monk who practiced outside your village taught you?" ”

Zhou Yuan had been to Baizhang Village, and naturally knew that there was an ascetic monk outside the mountain of Baizhang Village. But he has already left, probably scared away by a tiger.

"No, you mean the Master of Wisdom! A certain followed him to learn martial arts, but never studied Buddhist scriptures. It's watching him chant sometimes and it will. Li Kui grinned widely, as if none of this was a problem.

"Where's the word? You can't practice words indiscriminately, right? ”

"Watching him write, he practiced blindly for some days, but the kid only practiced this scripture, and the rest of the writing was not so good."

Li Kui didn't know how to explain it, anyway, how smart he was. The vague explanation made Zhou Yuan speechless, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that this kid is really a reading material?" No, I'll have to give it a try. ”

"Want to read?" Zhou Yuan has one hand on his abdomen and one hand on his back, looking like a literati proudly.

It's a pity that Li Kui doesn't think this posture is handsome, but feels stupid: "Of course." The kid thought that his family was poor, so he studied on his own for two years, and when he could write articles, he went to school. ”

Self-study?

Zhou Yuan wanted to beat people angrily, a guy who had never experienced Mengxue, and told him unashamedly that he wanted to get the opportunity to take the imperial examination through self-study, isn't this a toad yawning, what a big breath?

I have to say that Li Kui surprised Zhou Yuan too much. He decided to take a closer look: "Since you said that you are self-studying, you can choose a book on the shelf, how long will it take to finish it?" ”

Li Kui rushed to the shelf with a whoosh, and after rummaging through a few books, he saw the "Book of Shang", beautifully printed, and a real Song book. It's a pity that it's too thin to fit his thirst for knowledge. How much will it cost to get this shelf of Song edition books to future generations? He swallowed hard at the book, a priceless treasure, but unfortunately, like ginseng, he didn't rush. Without looking back, I chose the thickest one, and muttered; "A month, is that okay?

"Guangyun" should be the dictionary of the Northern Song Dynasty, so take it too.

Seeing that Li Kui had chosen, Zhou Yuancai came over to see what book Li Kui had chosen, and when he looked at it, he almost didn't get angry, you haven't even read Mengxue, so you dare to attack "Zuo Chuan"? I don't know how thick the sky is, right?

Zhou Yuan took out the book and wanted to put it on the shelf, but found that it didn't move, gritted his teeth and said, "Let go!" ”

Li Kui said with a shy face: "This book is the thickest." ”

"I know." Zhou Yuan blushed, and when he found that his strength was no more than that of a thirteen-year-old boy, his heart almost collapsed.

"I haven't read this book!"

"I know that too."

But he can't harm people and let a student without any foundation start his study path from "Zuo Chuan", right?

I heard that during the Qin and Han dynasties, some people did use "Zuo Chuan", "Spring and Autumn", and "Shangshu" to enlighten themselves, but most of the students faced these huge works, and felt more and more the insignificance of human beings, and desperately cut off the road to study, it was too difficult. The main reason is that there were no books in Mengxue at that time, unlike in the Northern Song Dynasty, when the imperial court emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, Mengtong did not have to face the emperor's masterpiece like a student of the Qin and Han dynasties, and his face was like ashes. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the study of Mongolian education had already begun, and "Thousand Character Text" and "Hundred Family Names" were all Mongolian reading materials popularized during this period.

Of course, "Three Character Classic", "Xuexun", "Prodigy Poems" and the like are later, and they are all books that only appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Li Kui finally gave up his insistence, but he made a request to Zhou Yuan that he couldn't pronounce "Guangyun", and he needed to find someone to teach him. Zhou Yuan nodded and agreed: "Okay, this official can teach you." ”

"Thank you, teacher."

Li Kui went up the pole, this great opportunity has passed, and he will regret it for the rest of his life.
