Chapter 61 The Six Arts are tedious and difficult to get started

Lao Fan was really magical, and when he spoke again, he startled Pu Tao again: "You wonder how I saw through your tricks?"

Pu Tao put his legs together, his back straight, and stood respectfully, like a child who had done something wrong, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

After decades of education, respect for teachers has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

Old man Fan said: "Your foundation is too poor, I wanted to return you, but one of your actions made me suddenly change my mind!"

He confirmed his thoughts again, nodded and said: "This group of children is all good, but the pressure is not enough, if you motivate them, maybe there is some hope for this year's children's exam!"

"You're talking about the catfish effect?" Pu Tao suddenly interjected.

"What do you mean by catfish?" the old master didn't hear clearly!

"The catfish effect! It's fishermen fishing, they will put a catfish in the sardine tank, so that after a few days of bumps, although a small part of the sardines are eaten, most of them will survive!"

"Well, you're a fisherman? No, we're not near the sea here! I didn't expect you to have some life experience!

Seeing that this old man didn't seem to be so difficult to contact, Pu Tao boldly asked, "Teacher, how did you see through my illusion?"

Fan Dayou also had the intention to deter Pu Tao, and he had to show some real skills, so he said: "Gewu Zhizhi!"

"What do you mean?"

"The general meaning is to use a ruler to measure the object, and then get the overall information of the object, and then to know! In depth, it is to get understanding through practice, and then practice, correct mistakes, get correct understanding, repeat it several times, and that's it!"

This truth is very incisive, Pu Tao understands, this is the truth of practice to achieve true knowledge, here it is called Gewu Zhizhi!

This is the basic method used by contemporary scientists to study science! Lao Fan is an ancient, but he understands it, and it seems that Lao Fan has some ability?!

Pu Tao became more and more respectful, and he had mastered the method of learning about things hundreds of years in advance, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a thousand-year-old monster wearing human skin, or the kind with infinite mana.

If you can see through illusions with the ability to learn from things, then what else do you need the heavenly demons to do?

In such a world, it will be difficult for the devil to move an inch!

Fan Dayou then said: "Your lotus flower is not large enough, the color is light, and the number of petals is also three petals less, and in the end, it is obvious that you are not cultivated enough to support it, so you swallowed it back into your mouth!

"I'll go, this old man can read minds?"

Pu Tao hurriedly bowed and apologized, and said, "Teacher, I was wrong, I shouldn't have doubted you!

"Have you ever scolded me?" Okay, let's take note for the time being!" Lao Fan showed a look of understanding, suddenly smiled strangely, and said, "How about it? I accepted you as an apprentice, and you can accept me as a teacher?"

Pu Tao said: "Hello teacher!"

Lao Fan relied on his own ability to convince Pu Tao, and he was also a little relieved in his heart.

Look at this child's way of dealing with things, in line with the golden mean,

Especially the sentence of self-cultivation Qi family ruling the country and leveling the world, quite the essence of Confucianism, if you cultivate it well, it can't be said to be a good material, but I don't know how talented you are to read.

Lao Fan took out a book and said: "Your foundation is too poor, compared with these classmates, you are a few years behind, but fortunately, you still know a few words and understand the reason! I am willing to accept you! You can take this Analect back and read it, and memorize it all within ten days!"

Pu Tao knew that this was to make up for his lack of foundation, but after reading this book, it was clearly the kind that Old Man Sun gave him that night, and he had already read it for a few days.

So he smiled and said, "Teacher, I memorized this book a few days ago!

"Huh??Then you will recite it?"

Pu Tao opened his mouth, and memorized more than a dozen Analects of the Analects, and sure enough, the melons were ripe.

Lao Fan took out a copy of "University", handed it to Pu Tao and said, "Then this one, memorize it, and check it in ten days!"

Pu Tao took the book and said, "Teacher, I have a request, can you not punish those juniors?"

Lao Fan smiled: "I didn't say that I would punish them immediately, keep it in the account!

Hearing that Lao Fan did not punish those classmates, Pu Tao left with a smile,

He knew that he was very lacking in ancient literature, and he wanted to participate in the scientific examination and work hard, so he didn't play with those children, and seriously studied on the side.

In the afternoon, he suddenly came to the door and said to Lao Fan: "Teacher, I have memorized it!"

Lao Fan was stunned, "Ah, you memorized nearly a hundred pages of books so quickly?"

Pu Tao opened his mouth and recited it, and there was no mistake or omission.

Lao Fan noticed that this child was a little unusual, so he said, "How long have you been carrying it?"

Pu Tao scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I've watched it once, it's all here!"

Fan Dayou clapped his hands and said: "I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect that now I see it with my own eyes, and I am still my student!"

Seeing that Pu Tao was smart and had a good attitude towards learning, Fan Dayou had some confidence, he found dozens of books that were one person high, handed them to Pu Tao and said: "The Four Books and Five Classics, and the scientific examination essays, all of them are in these books! You memorize them all, and if you don't understand something, you will come to ask for advice, and you will be allowed an hour to make up for class time every day!"

Pu Tao thanked again and again.

After more than ten days of hard work, Pu Tao gnawed most of these books, and since he had a mirror, he really became unforgettable, and the things he had seen could be remembered even after a longer period of time.

This kind of talent is simply a must-have for readers!

What is especially rare is that this child is exceptionally kind and filial,

After a few days of hard work, he actually helped Liu Ji's family to open a wine selling business, acting as an agent for the Pu family to brew their own wine, and suddenly, the family became rich and had no worries.

This alone made Pu Tao get the heartfelt gratitude of the children.

Of course, the smile on Lao Fantou's face has increased a little more in the past few days, and Pu Tao's wine has contributed a lot.

Seeing Pu Tao's learning progress by leaps and bounds, he soon surpassed those ordinary children,

On this day, Lao Fan once again brought him into the wing room and asked, "Tao'er, your studies are also considered to be beginners! Now I want to ask you, do you want to learn some real skills?"

"The old goblin is about to conjure up his real body!"

After many days of dating, Pu Tao found that Lao Fan didn't know how to read minds, but he knew a little about psychology.

Pu Tao took out a pot of good wine, put it on the teacher's table, and then said cautiously: "What real skills does the teacher have?"

Fan Dayou said quite complacently: "My Confucianism has six arts, famous all over the world, it is six great skills, and I specialize in calligraphy, if I instruct you, calligraphy is small, and there is no problem with the introduction of the other five ways!"

Fan Dayou once studied at Yingtian Academy, so he understands everything about the six arts of Confucianism, but Pu Tao has never learned these.

"What are the six arts of Confucianism?"

Fan Dayou carefully introduced: "Most of the books you read these days belong to the introduction to the six arts, and the progress is not slow! The six arts of Confucianism are the necessary skills for Confucian disciples to walk the world, including etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics. ”

Pu Tao asked respectfully again, "Can you tell me in detail?"

"Well, for the sake of these good wines, I'll waste some spit!"

"Etiquette is etiquette. Contains five rites, auspicious, fierce, guest, military, and Jiaye. Those who understand etiquette can enter the Ministry of Etiquette as officials!"

Pu Tao shook his head in his heart, "This ability is useless! When you are beaten, persuade others to be lighter?"

"The musician is the music. Including six music, Yunmen, Daxian, Dashao, Daxia, Dahui, and Dawuye. ”

Pu Tao shook his head in his heart, "This ability is useless! Is it better to moan when you are beaten?"

"Shooting is archery. It contains five kinds of archery skills: White Arrow, Shen Lian, Xiang Ruler, and Jing Yi. ”

Pu Tao hesitated in his heart, "This skill is a bit interesting! At least I can stand in the distance and fight others for a few moves!?"

"Royal is driving skills. Including Ming and Luan, chasing water wheels, passing the monarch table, dancing Jiaoqu, chasing birds and so on!"

Pu Tao hesitated in his heart, "This skill is a bit interesting! At least if you can't beat it, you can still drive away!?"

"Books are the way to write. It includes literacy, reading, and composition! There are also techniques such as pictograms, signifiers, understanding, morphology, phonics, transfers, and borrowing! Most of the imperial examinations come from this skill!"

Pu Tao said secretly: "This skill is what Old Man Fan is best at, and he must learn this!"

"Numbers are the method of studying rational numbers and qi numbers! Or to put it simply, it is to find the five elements of yin and yang, the changes of all things, and the laws of movement that are restrained, and the knowledge of things is in it. ”

Pu Tao hesitated: "There is a way to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you are not afraid to go all over the world, but this number is a little different from the number of mathematics, physics and chemistry!"

Lao Fan nodded: "The ability to learn from things has relatively high requirements for logarithms, so you have to go back and think about it carefully!"

It's hard to be an old fan, and it only took a few words to explain all the six arts of Confucianism, but Pu Tao still didn't understand the details.

After he explained carefully for a long time again, Pu Tao understood the simple truth, and couldn't help but make difficulties, these six arts are broad and profound, comparable to countless martial arts cheats in front of him,

Who to choose and who not to choose? It's very tangled!
