Chapter 8: The First Day of a New Life
When Zhao Ran knew that he was admitted as a fireworker by Wuji Academy, he immediately couldn't help but burst into tears. He didn't know what Chu Yangcheng had explained to Wuji Yuan before leaving, but Wuji Yuan saw that Chu Yangcheng was accepting himself in the face, but this was a fact that he didn't need to think about it. Maybe in Chu Yangcheng's opinion, this is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning, but for Zhao Ranyan, it is a heavy opportunity to travel through life.
At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, if he had a hot head on Qingping Mountain that day and charged forward with a knife, where would there be such an opportunity as today? I am afraid that he would have been dug and buried a long time ago. No, maybe not even a pit!
In the pawn room, Zhang Dianzao lived behind the case, unfolded a page of yellow paper, looked at Zhao Ran who was respectful and respectful in front of him, and read expressionlessly: "Zhao's Sanlang, born in September of the 11th year of Zhengde, Sichuan Chengxuan's political envoy Si Long'an Mansion Shiquan County, Zhao Zhuang, the third ancestor of Heng, the chief bookkeeper of Qinghe County, Shandong, the county Cheng, the ancestor of the world, was a resident of Jingming Courtyard in Shiquan County - well, it is also considered innocent...... Seven years in school, excellent grades in the examination - well, it is also considered a ...... of progress"
Zhao Ran lowered his head, and in a trance, he had the feeling of participating in an interview when he had just graduated in his previous life. But the difference is that this time he faced Zhang Dianzao, one of the eight deacons of Wuji Academy, he felt a lot of pressure, because Zhang Dianzao showed him the powerful strength of Wuji Yuan - in just seven days, all of his resumes were written on this yellow paper, including many things that he didn't know about.
After Zhang Dianzao finished reading, he looked at Zhao Ran quietly for a long time, until Zhao Ran's demeanor became more respectful, and then he nodded and said, "Would you like to enter Wuji Courtyard as a layman?"
"Yes. ”
"For a lifetime, to receive the Daomen?"
"Yes. ”
"So, let's draw a charge. ”
Zhao Ran stepped forward, dipped the ink in the red clay printing box on the case, and pressed his thumb heavily on the end of the yellow paper...... At this moment, he suddenly had a feeling of selling himself.
Zhang Dianzao took the yellow paper, stuffed it into a stack of documents, took another scroll, flipped it to the blank space, and took a pen to transcribe Zhao Ran's name. When he closed the above volume, Zhao Ran saw that the cover was written "Layman Book".
Zhao Ran let out a sigh of relief. The so-called layman, who is not a Taoist priest, according to Zhao Ran's understanding, is a "supernumerary". But according to the Daomen, even if it is a "supernumerary", it is also the identity that countless people dream of. The layman is divided into fireworker layman and layman, and Zhao Ran is now a fireworker. As for the lay monks, they are all owners who have donated a large amount of money, and they can rely on the authority of the Taoist gate without having to do their work.
After completing the formalities, Zhao Ran took the voucher issued by Zhang Dianzao and went to the warehouse. The archdeacon of the treasury was not there, and it was Liu Kutou who was in charge of the treasury, Liu Kutou was pushing pai gow with a few Taoists, took the slip and threw a package on Zhao Ran's face, and hurriedly sat down and stared at the cards in his hand, flipped it nervously, and his shiny head was full of beads of sweat.
This scene surprised Zhao Ran. He was also embarrassed to disturb Liu Kutou's interest, and left the warehouse with the package.
According to the statement in his previous life, Zhao Ran was assigned to a squatter. As one of the eight major houses of the Taoist Academy, the dormitory is actually the largest department in the Taoist Academy, and among all the "five main and eighteen heads" stewards of the Wuji Academy, there are "eight heads" belonging to the dormitory, including water heads, fire heads, rice heads, vegetable heads, grinding heads, trough heads, net heads and round heads. As the name suggests, the dormitory is in charge of all the daily life matters in the courtyard.
What are the rules for new fireworkers? New fireworkers are routinely swept in the squatter for a year, and they can not change shifts until the next batch of new recruits arrive, which is the rule, not only the rules of Wuji Temple, but also the rules of the world's Daomen.
Therefore, Zhao Ran's first position after entering Wuji Courtyard was to sweep.
The head of the fence is named Zhou Zhixiu, and it wasn't until he listlessly introduced the contents of the sweep to Zhao Ran that Zhao Ran understood what he was going to do. He opened his mouth wide and did not close it for a long time, and then, with the impatient wave of his hand, he turned around and walked towards the house assigned to him.
The so-called "圊" is the toilet, and the broom is naturally the toilet cleaning. Don't blame Zhao Ran for being uneducated, he has never seen such a strange word in his past life and a total of 23 years of school education in this life! And Zhao Ran, who knew this word for the first time, hated this word extremely much at the moment.
Is Lao Tzu a department-level cadre? Why did he come to clean the toilet?
Zhao Ran couldn't accept his new profession in a short period of time, and couldn't help but grieve inexplicably. Complaining and staggering, he staggered into his house and fell headlong on the bed.
"Ouch" A miserable scream woke up the restless Zhao Ran, feeling that where he was lying, there was a person sleeping under the quilt! This gentleman turned around and glared at Zhao Ran: "I said, can't you have longer eyes?"
It took Zhao Ran a lot of effort to see the anger in the other party's mung bean-sized eyes, and hurriedly said: "This senior brother ......"
The other party's small eyes rolled a few times on Zhao Ran's body, and asked, "New here, right?"
Zhao Ran nodded: "Yes, I just entered the hospital today, senior brother ......"
The other party waved his hand and interrupted: "Don't call me senior brother, I can't afford it, I didn't go out and be laughed at." ”
Zhao Ran was stunned, and he didn't know what he meant, a futon in the corner of the bed was suddenly opened, and a triangular head poked out: "Only after receiving the degree can you be called a senior brother, don't trespass." With that, the triangular head retracted again.
Zhao Ran was stunned for a while--there is still one person on this bed!
"I'm sorry, my little brother thought it was his own house, and he entered the ...... by mistake"
The one with the little mung bean eyes sneered: "Ha, your own house? This brother, don't be stupid, and you will make do with it!"
The futon in the corner added an explanation: "Only by mixing with the steward can you have your own house." ”
Mung Bean's small eyes slammed into the west of the bed: "Brother Tai's surname is Zhao? Hurry up and sleep, I'm sleepy!" After saying that, he turned his head and lay down again.
Zhao Ran was stunned, groped his way up to the east end of the bed, put the package in the corner of the wall, and pulled the quilt to cover his body. I was about to close my eyes, but suddenly I sat up again, patted my head, and said to myself, I was really stupid, what kind of sleep did I sleep in the daytime?
He staggered out of bed, stepped on his shoes, crept out of the house, closed the door, and sat down on the stone steps at the door, and breathed a sigh of relief.
This is a small courtyard with three bedrooms and one wall, and a wing room to the east is the house of himself and mung bean with small eyes and triangular heads, but I don't know who lives in the north and west rooms, but there is no one at the moment. In the middle of the small courtyard are a few bushes and flowers, which seem to have not been taken care of by anyone, and they are sparsely grown. In addition, there is a small chamber between the west room and the wall.
At this moment, it was the end of the day (Zhao Ran broke his toes and calculated that it was about 3 or 4 o'clock in the afternoon), and he didn't know what was wrong with the two brothers, so he slept lazily in such a sunny afternoon, Zhao Ran had to sit here and watch the flowers and plants, and at the same time kept cheering himself up, encouraging himself to work hard.
I don't know how long I was bored, but I saw a few Taoists coming back in the small courtyard, old and young, putting the big broom on their shoulders and the bamboo dustpan they carried into the small room, and then entered the north house and the west house. A few of them were kind-hearted, and nodded at Zhao Ran, who was sitting at the bottom of the steps, and Zhao Ran also hurriedly got up to respond, and he didn't care about those who treated him as nothing.
Suddenly, a melodious bell rang, and the Taoist priests in the north and east houses went out one after another and went straight to the outside of the courtyard. When Zhao Ran was not sure why, the door of the west house where he lived suddenly flashed open, and the small mung bean eyes and triangular head came out of the house, and he was tiptoeing to put on his shoes as he came out.
Mung Dou's little eyes saw Zhao Ran's inexplicable eyes under the stone steps, so he explained, "It's time to eat", and the right hand that had just pulled out the shoe directly dragged Zhao Ran's arm, pulled Zhao Ran and left, which made Zhao Ran nauseous for a while.
