Chapter Fifty-Nine: Occasional Gains
Liang Qu turned around and looked at his house.
It is only ten meters horizontally and vertically, and only with the addition of a low courtyard wall around it does it look slightly larger.
Several corners of the old tiled roof were covered with thatch to keep out the rain, and the soil on the ground had long been pitted.
Unexpectedly, he rejected Xue Chengquan, went around in circles, and turned back again.
Liang Qu didn't refuse again, and went to the martial arts hall when he couldn't go home.
As for the main priest, it was not a trouble, but also an opportunity to show his face, and he agreed to come down.
Once again, I expressed my gratitude to the old Chen Zhaoan, and the group went back in a grand way.
finally came to a free time, and before Liang Qu closed the door to practice martial arts and check what he had gained, the door was knocked again.
When I opened the door, it turned out that Uncle Chen came back to share the account after selling the fish.
Chen Qingjiang looked excited, took out a few silver beans from his blanket and put them on the table, and danced and said about selling fish: "Five hundred and sixty-seven Wen!" Then Lin Songbao heard that it was your catch, and directly gave me five coins of silver, five coins, that is half a tael! We made half a tael of silver in one day! ”
Seeing Uncle Chen so elated, Liang Qu was in a better mood, he divided the silver particles on the table into two halves, and pushed them away: "Then according to the said five and a half points, you will be two dollars and five points, and I will be two dollars and five points." ”
"That's not good, that's not good, two dollars and five are too much, I can't ask for it, one dollar, I'll take one dollar." Chen Qingjiang took out one of his own half and put it back in his bag.
"Uncle Chen, didn't we say that we would split the account at the beginning, and now you want me to lose my trust? Isn't that a trap for me in unrighteousness? Isn't it ruining my reputation to spread the word? ”
Liang Qu can be regarded as having figured out Uncle Chen's character, so he doesn't come to be polite or polite, and directly presses him with righteousness.
Two dollars and five cents a day, you can save at least two dollars a day, and the money from Uncle Chen's medical hall will be repaid in four or five days.
Sure enough, Chen Qingjiang ate this set, his face was wrinkled, he hadn't read the book, but he had heard a lot of stories, and many of them were people who sacrificed their lives for righteousness, and did not hesitate to die for the sake of the festival, so they were immediately frightened and had to accept it.
"I'm really sorry not to go, it's just time for dinner now, Uncle Chen, will you let me go to your house for a meal?"
"Okay, okay, I'll go and ask my mother-in-law to cook more food."
......
Early the next morning.
Liang Qu saw that Xue Chengquan was sending people to set up a simple porridge shed by the port.
The thick vegetable porridge was steaming hot in the cold wind, and people lined up to get the porridge to drink.
There were children and women in the alley before, as well as lame old men and toothless old women, and there were many people in the middle who plastered their clothes and blended in, but they were driven out by Lin Songbao on the side.
He is here to help, who is really poor and who is fake poor in the town, Lin Songbao knows it clearly.
"Holy shit, come here to cheat and cheat, do you know whose stall this is? Brother Shui! Liang Qu! Who's that? Yang Wushi personally passed on, the master of the future! If you don't want to die, come over, I can hide it from you Lin Ye, I'm the one! ”
Lin Songbao gave a thumbs up and shouted at the crowd.
Liang Qu laughed when he heard it, he didn't come closer, and chose to leave after a few glances.
In the afternoon, Liang Qu took his waist card, arm guards, found out clean clothes to put on, and followed the convoy to Shanghu Academy, through the old man who signed up to see the day before yesterday, found his teacher, first started with literacy, and learned something similar to disciple rules and three-character scriptures.
Sitting on the seat, Liang Qu saw a group of children around him who were only seven or eight years old, and the oldest was no more than twelve or thirteen, and he was quite helpless.
He is literate at this age and belongs to the category of "senior students".
Fortunately, as a person who has undergone systematic education, Liang Qu, who was admitted to a prestigious university, has a strong learning ability, and there are many similarities in the writing in this world, he is extremely fast in literacy, so fast that the teacher can't believe it.
"Liang Qu, you really haven't read a private school before?"
"Yes sir, I have been a fisherman since I was a child, and I have never been to school, but I have passed by various shops, and I often figure it out, and I recognize some words, such as the Wufangzhai, and I wrote it down after passing by a few times."
Mr. Teaching labeled Liang Qu as studious in his heart, and sighed with emotion: "If you give up martial arts and turn your head to gain fame, you may also have some achievements." ”
The little dolls on the side all cast adoring glances, making Liang Quwei embarrassed.
Appearing in front of people, it's not such a manifestation, and there is no sense of accomplishment at all.
"You are a martial artist, so there are additional learning tasks, since you have a good foundation, maybe you can try to read these two books, if you don't understand, you can come and ask me."
Jiao Xi handed out two stacks of books, one is the "Haomutang Miscellaneous Notes Annotated Edition", which has six volumes, and the other is "Yu Guan Xiu, Life Has Feelings", which has two volumes.
Dashun established the country with martial arts, even if he was a scholar who had never practiced martial arts, he had a deep understanding of martial arts, and even had the beautiful talk of a powerless Confucian who woke up a martial arts master on the spot.
Liang Qu took the book with both hands and simply flipped through the catalog.
Both are the works of martial artists in the realm of Zhenxiang, the former is a collection of the author's life and friends to see and hear the compilation, mainly about a variety of spirit characteristics, herbal identification, spiritual treasure adventures, because it is a personal perspective of the experience, it is quite interesting to read.
The latter is not much different, but this martial artist is much earlier, telling a lot of battlefield experiences and experiences, as well as his understanding of the cultivation of martial artists, and the description of some realms is more accurate and in place.
For example, in the galloping horse realm, the peak can pull dozens of galloping horses without moving, what kind of horse is this horse?
Is it all a bloody BMW, or is it all a bad horse, a big horse, or a small horse?
In fact, it is a very vague adjective.
"These two books are just an introduction, there are many more behind, all to read, most of the records of the spirits and monsters are correct, and there are annotations left by descendants if they are not right, all of which are the experience of predecessors, which are very precious.
You can try to read it first and take it back to look through, but remember not to damage it, otherwise you will not only have to pay compensation according to the original price, but also make up the cost of the disrespectful book, because handwriting, a volume will cost a tael of silver. ”
Liang Qu nodded seriously, thinking that it is not easy to be a martial artist, he can't eat anywhere without culture, he can't read the cheats of martial arts, and he doesn't know the treasures of heaven and earth, and he is unlucky, and he encounters some strange spirits, and he doesn't know how to deal with them, so he may send them.
For several days, Liang Qu traveled back and forth between Pingyang Town and Yixing City, reading and learning calligraphy.
He didn't go to the martial arts hall, and it was too exaggerated to reduce the time to break the level in Lent to less than five days, and it was better to delay it for two days.
In the town, Lu Shaohui's affairs gradually faded, and it seemed that the mountain ghost disappeared, and the mood of the townspeople gradually stabilized.
The only strange thing is that Liang Qu found a relevant record of a mountain ghost when he was studying the "Haomutang Miscellaneous Notes Annotated Edition", which said that this monster usually eats every two days, and it stands to reason that it should not have been silent for so long.
Either way, it's always a good thing that no one dies.
The Liangqu also does not stand under the dangerous wall, and when the two places come and go, they avoid taking the land route as much as possible, and take the boat and waterway.
Pingyang Town is not next to Jianghuai Zeye, but the waterways of the two places are connected.
There is a meandering river tributary that runs through the whole town, seven or eight meters wide, more than ten meters deep, that is, the one at the entrance of Langyunlou, with the South Stone Bridge.
According to the older generation, it is said that Dajiao crossed the border, which is extraordinarily winding, resulting in a longer waterway than the land route, and there are also fishing pens at the head of the town, so if you want to enter the town to sell fish, you have to pay a sum of money to cross the river, so the fishermen rarely go.
For the sake of safety, Liang Qu is willing to pay more tolls.
In the middle, he also made two boat trips, and followed the two beasts to find out if there were other treasures, and the treasures were hidden near the waters of Yixing City, but unfortunately they found nothing.
Xu is will not forget that there will be an echo, this day Liang Qu copied the copybook and turned his wrist, and received a message that could not be moved in the link.
