Chapter 229: The Price of Acquaintances
There is no need to explain too much, if this old friend really knew that Chu Nan in front of him was the Chu Nan who won the top spot in Tianyuan City in the Central Continent, there would inevitably be pressure in his heart.
Zhou Yuan said: "Xiaoyou went out alone this time, what about the old brother Chen." ”
Zhou Yuan has always called Lao Chen his brother, but because Lao Chen showed the Martial Dao Heavenly Eye once in front of Zhou Yuan, he shocked Zhou Yuan.
Chu Nan said: "Actually, I have already broken away from the ranks of knife catchers, and at such an age, I want to be more refined on the way to cultivation." ”
Zhou Yuan gave a thumbs up and said: "Xiaoyou takes the right path, I admire it, it's just the right way, there are many difficulties, and I hope that Xiaoyou will control his selfish desires in the future." ”
"Temptation is out of reach for people who are incapable, but for people as capable as Xiaoyou, temptation is everywhere."
With the experience of his son-in-law, Zhou Yuan was really afraid that Chu Nan would go astray, and he was not idle to worry about, but the elders cared about the younger generations.
Chu Nan smiled faintly: "That's natural, and now I, if I want to do some good things, maybe it's not easy, but if I want to do bad things, it's really easy." ”
"Thank you for your advice."
Zhou Yuan asked curiously: "I wonder what Xiaoyou plans to do when he comes to Kongya County this time?" ”
Chu Nan showed an embarrassed expression and said: "I can't hide it, this time I have something to ask for, so I came to visit the old man, and it can be regarded as nothing to go to the Three Treasures Palace." ”
Zhou Yuan didn't think it was strange, when young people go out, there will always be all kinds of unspeakable hidden, he also came from a young age, and the most important thing is that he has always felt that Chu Nan is a very pleasing child.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Zhou Yuan smiled lovingly.
Chu Nan said: "I plan to go to Kongya Academy to study for a few days, but I just read in the library, and I don't plan to enroll, and I am already past the age of enrollment." ”
"The threshold of the academy is a bit high, and I have no acquaintances, so it is difficult for me to enter the gate of the academy."
Zhou Yuan showed a puzzled expression and said: "According to my observation, Xiaoyou, although it is not full of economy, but he still knows some knowledge, how can he suddenly remember to read a book?" ”
Chu Nan was ashamed and said: "Practice, sometimes one law can be used for ten thousand laws, I have also encountered a bottleneck, I didn't like to read in the past, I felt bored, but now I know that when books are used, I hate less." ”
"I plan to comprehend more knowledge and righteousness, which will also be of great help to my cultivation."
"Even if it's just a puppet after all, I hope I can be a puppet with a belly of ink, which makes the old man smile."
"Some really useful books, unique books, are often hidden in the library of the academy, or hidden in the scripture pavilion of the government, although there are many bookstores on the market, but it is really not easy to find one or two learned books."
Chu Nan did not hide it, Old Man Zhou used to be a local parent official, and he knew very well that some useful books would not be easily circulated on the market, and those books on the market were either vulgar articles, or they were deliberately moaning there without illness, pretending to sigh, but in fact they had no value.
Old Man Zhou thought that Chu Nan was going to go to Kongya Academy to do something that was not very convenient to do, but when he heard Chu Nan say this, his hanging heart was also put down.
Chu Nan continued: "I plan to study in Kongya Academy for a few days, and then leave here and go to other states and counties, in short, now I have made up my mind to read ten thousand books and travel thousands of miles. ”
"Although we are in our prime, sometimes we feel that the years are always short."
"Time is hard to continue, and every step of life must not be sloppy."
After Zhou Yuan heard this, he looked at Chu Nan with an appreciative expression and exclaimed: "There are very few people of Xiaoyou's age who can have such an awareness as Xiaoyou. ”
"It's okay, since it's studying, it's also an elegant matter, and I happen to have some friends in Kongya Academy."
Zhou Yuan glanced at the old housekeeper on the side, and the old housekeeper understood, and hurriedly returned to the room inside, packed up some gift boxes, and begged people to do things, after all, he couldn't be empty-handed.
"Tonight, you can enter Kongya Academy for a look."
Chu Nan thanked him very much: "Thank you, old man, a little bit of heart, and I hope the old man will smile." ”
Then, Chu Nan took out a silver spirit coin and put it on the tea table, Zhou Yuan could naturally recognize this as a silver spirit coin at a glance, worth a thousand taels of gold, and reached out and slowly pushed this silver spirit coin to Chu Nan's hand.
He smiled and said: "There is no need for this, you and I are old friends, and it just so happens that I can help with this matter." ”
"Besides, you are a junior, and I am an elder, how can there be a reason for an elder to accept money from a junior."
Chu Nan said with a straight face: "This yard is one yard, if you beat some friends in Kongya Academy, you will still pay a small price, besides, this time I took the initiative to ask the old man to help you." ”
"Please take it again."
Zhou Yuan's mind was complicated for a while, Xiaoyou was young, so sensible, and said with a helpless smile: "But this favor is not a big favor, a silver spirit coin is really a bit much." ”
"Just give me a bronze spirit coin."
"Recently, you have lived here, everyone is friends, and it is more convenient to say and do anything."
It seems to be a very simple thing to go to the library of Kongya Academy to read books, but it is something that many poor students can hope for, because many mathematics and principles are monopolized by a few people, and it is difficult for outsiders to get a piece of the pie.
Chu Nan was slightly embarrassed, so he had to take back the silver spirit coin and take out a copper spirit coin for the old man, Chu Nan knew that the old man mobilized this connection, the price spent, and some future personal contacts were by no means a hundred taels of gold that could be stopped.
After all, Kongya Academy, in the entire territory of Daqin, is considered to be a little famous.
There are countless students who want to go to Kongya Academy to read books.
"Xiaoyou came from afar, the kitchen is busy, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time, so let's have a few drinks." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.
Chu Nan was not ambiguous, and responded: "Then it will be disrespectful." ”
……
……
On the outskirts of Kongya County, green mountains and green waters, willows and willows.
Liu Rong, Gao Li and the young fat man gathered together, in addition to these three people, there was also a middle-aged woman about forty years old, wearing an ink-colored long dress, with a plain appearance, triangular eyes, revealing a sharp yin owl feeling.
The middle-aged woman is from Jinshan Town, her name is Gao Hong, and she is a master in the late Yuan Infant period.
"He went to Kongya County, and the young master of Qingyinmen was temporarily separated, the news has been tight in recent days, I don't know how long he will stay in Kongya County, and now in Xizhou, many people know that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is going to Stargazing Mountain, this news is naturally deliberately revealed."
"He wants to compete with all of us, and he has a big heart." Gao Hong sneered faintly.
The people of Lieyang Town and Hanging Sky Town haven't made a move yet, and the people from those two towns are heading in the direction of Stargazing Mountain.
Liu Rong said with a look of shame: "He is very lethal, and the three of us join forces, and it is estimated that they are not his opponents." ”
Gao Hong glanced at Liu Rong coldly, and reprimanded: "Hugh said these frustrating words, he may be a good person, but don't forget, your positions are different after all, this King of Chu has made some layouts in Jinshan Town fall through, and even many people have died in vain, and even some of the previous results have shrunk a lot." ”
Liu Rong was speechless for a while, because this was the truth.
"Forget it, the three of you are defeated, I'll go to Kongya County first, the three of you don't have to wait for me, go to Stargazing Mountain and wait first." Gao Hong Road.
Some people died, but not completely......
