At the same time that Jian Shuzhi officially decided to enter the college, Mr. Wu wrote a letter back to Yuzhou, taking the initiative to ask for the dissolution of the master-servant relationship, and at the same time entrusted Mr. Wu to make a household for him through the government. Mr. Wu gave him a favor, but Jian Shuzhi felt that he could not repay it.

Located in the hinterland of the Dayan Empire, the Spring and Autumn Academy, which has taken root in the Yunling Mountains within the jurisdiction of Zhangzhou, covers a vast area. The Yunling Mountains are surrounded by Shenxian Lake, and the Whistle River winds and undulates from the mountains and flows into Shenxian Lake. This vast area of land and lakes is the territory of the Spring and Autumn School. The college was built on a plain at the foot of the mountain. The Hidden Garden is in the West Mountain, and the school house is in the East Mountain.

Compared with etiquette and reason, Jian Shuzhi prefers arithmetic, compared to military and law, he prefers the situation of soldiers, and the rest of the vertical and horizontal, yin and yang, ink and miscellaneous famous farmers, all do not like it, but they will dabble. It's one thing to like it or not, it's another thing to learn or not.

The library pavilion on the mountain behind the north of the Hidden Garden is the place where Jian Shuzhi spends most of his spare time. There are tens of millions of books in the library cabinet, almost all of which are unique scriptures, but they are classified and orderly. The Tibetan Gate Pavilion is often cleaned, and the books are spotless. In charge of the management of the library is an old scholar surnamed Hong, with gray hair, always a few leeks on his front teeth, and a gray robe.

Although the library pavilion is not far from the Hidden Garden, it still takes a long time to walk. As the saying goes: Wangshan is not far away from running a dead horse, this is the truth.

Every day after Jian Shuzhi got out of the school, he would habitually go to the Hidden Garden to finish the housework for Mr. Wu, and then go to the library to seek knowledge. During this period, the husband warned him several times not to run aground and not to run over often to help clean up. But I still can't stand him coming over every day. Therefore, there was no further persuasion. Mr. understood that Jian Shuzhi was seeking peace of mind.

Open flames are strictly forbidden in the library because it is a high-rise wooden building. On the beams hung several huge bright stones, which glowed at night and shone like day.

Hong Lao dozed off on the first floor, and Jian Shuzhi went up to the second floor lightly. On the first floor, there is no collection of books for students to see, and the layout is a registration desk and a storeroom. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the warehouse, and the borrowed and returned books will be placed in the warehouse, sorted and sorted, and then the Mojia will make a mechanism to return the books to their original location. Otherwise, Hong Lao manages this study building alone, unless he is an immortal, he can make a prophecy and say "return", and the books will fly back to their original places by themselves, without the help of this organ, it is useless to have ten more Hong Lao.

The library has five floors, the second floor has the most books, the less books are collected, and the articles are high and low, divided into three, six, nine and so on. The collection of books on each floor is divided into categories, so that there is always a type of book you want. The library is known as the most complete collection of books in the world, and it is definitely not just talking to the outside world.

In the eyes of others, Jian Shuzhi is a maverick existence, and he has no friends. Because, except for the fact that he can be seen in the academy and the library cabinet, he can rarely be seen in other places. Every day when he returned to the school house from the library, his roommates were already asleep, so he rarely had much communication with his classmates.

When he was alone in the library to read a group of books, Jian Shuzhi sometimes thought of the girl named Wen Wan who taught him to read. Of course, these times are just remembering yourself. Mr. Wu said that the little white snake beside her was born to prey on the essence of luck, and Jian Shuzhi found a record in a book of "Chronicles of Mountains and Seas": It is said that this foreign body, born in a hundred years, can look at luck and prey on luck, and finally enters the sea and turns into a dragon.

For this kind of artifact, it can only be said that it is impossible to find. Regarding the record that the little white snake can watch the luck, Jian Shu is skeptical, and he can't believe that it will really be so powerful. Isn't there a deviation in the book? Anyway, he didn't see the power of the little white snake, he just thought it had a little intelligence.

Looking back, Wen Wan should have returned to Qinglu Academy! Since the day of the exchange between the two academies, this girl has not appeared again. Jian Shuzhi didn't say goodbye to her, let alone say thank you to her.

Hong Lao had already fallen asleep downstairs, crooked his neck and smiled, and he didn't know what happy things he encountered in his dreams. Because it was late, there was no one else in the library.

Jian Shuzhi quietly flipped through the "Chronicles of Mountains and Seas", thinking about some small things in his mind, and his ears rang with the slight snoring of Hong Lao downstairs, in this quiet atmosphere, he gradually felt sleepy, and in the haze, he seemed to hear someone talking to him.

In the dream, Jian Shuzhi opened his eyes in a daze. He returned to his hometown, looking at these familiar dilapidated courtyards and at the ancient trees at the entrance of the village. Further away are uncultivated acres.

The little black dog in the house was barking at the dilapidated courtyard gate.

A Taoist stood at the gate of the courtyard, smiling happily at the little black dog. The Taoist is estimated to have traveled a long way, looking down-and-out in the dust, and looking like he wants to ask for a bowl of water to quench his thirst. Jian Shuzhi saw that this person was kind-hearted, so he invited him to come to the courtyard and went to the kitchen jar to scoop a bowl of water for him.

After the Taoist finished drinking, he did not leave.

Jian Shuzhi went into the house again and scooped a bowl for him, and after the Taoist finished drinking, he looked at him with a smile again.

Jian Shuzhi entered the house again and scooped a bowl for him. In this way, the down-and-out Taoist drank a total of three bowls of water to quench his thirst.

Before leaving, the Taoist said that he would give him a chance, so he sent a white jade pendant to hang around Jian Shuzhi's neck.

The Taoist smiled and said, "You give me three bowls of water, and I give you a pendant, and you don't owe each other." If you have the opportunity to get out of this village, take a look at the outside world and take a trip to the rivers and lakes. ”

The Taoist stepped out of the hundred-mile land in one step, and this scene brought an incomparable shock to Jian Shuzhi's heart, thinking that he had met an immortal!

That year, Jian Shuzhi was not yet five years old, and the ancient country of the southern part of the country had not yet been crusade eastward.

Jian Shuzhi woke up from his dream, such a picture left him too much shock after all. The white jade pendant hanging around the neck is still there, and I can't see anything unusual, but I feel that after wearing it for a long time, there will be a layer of soft pearl covering it.

When Jian Shuzhi returned to the schoolhouse, it was already a sparse moon, and the little fat man on the bed next door hid in the quilt and sobbed softly, it turned out that he was punished for copying the scriptures again.

The little fat man told Jian Shuzhi privately that his family was poor, and his parents hoped that he could study more, and when he grew up, he could at least become a teacher and not have to work in the field. However, the gentlemen's reasoning was much greater, far from what he could understand now, which made him a little worried.

When the year-end exam was approaching, Jian Shuzhi finished the collection of books on the second floor and climbed to the third floor.

At the beginning of spring after the year, another group of schoolchildren should enter the academy. During this period, students successively completed their teaching and went to the imperial capital and local feudal governments to try their luck, hoping to be appreciated by Bole, and then leap into the dragon gate and shine on the lintel.

The little fat man was still punished for copying scriptures and righteousness as always, and he was as greedy as ever.

Mr. Ng often inquired about Jian Shuzhi's learning progress, and often asked the lecturer for his coursework, and then pointed out his shortcomings to him.

The pace of the Eastern Crusade of the Ancient Kingdom of the Southern Empire was slowed down by the contraction of the border defense line of the Dayan Empire. Coupled with several heavy snowfalls in the winter of that year, the food and grass of the southern army were tight, so they gave up this crusade.

If it is said that the ancient country of the southern part of the country broke off the idea of conquest, it is a big mistake, there are already strategists in the court of the Great Yan Dynasty to advise and offer advice, this eastern crusade is just a temptation of the ancient country of the southern part of the country, if the ancient country of the southern part of the country is to go east again, it will be poured into the strength of the whole country, and it cannot be ignored.

The border pass should strengthen the fortress facilities to repel horses, and the imperial horse warehouse should fully support the western frontier army, and the advantages and disadvantages of horses were more obvious in this offensive war, and secondly, the granary of the world should also be opened for the western frontier army.

Regarding the flooding of the Mangcang River, it is also necessary to solve it, and the relief of the court is one thing, and the new repair of water conservancy is another. No matter what it is, it needs to be supported by white flowers. I am afraid that if the flood is not properly handled, the victims will fall into the mountains, and then there will be no loss.

The court doesn't seem to be worried about this, even if there is a situation like a rogue group, there is a way to deal with it, in this regard, the court is divided into two factions, one is the main battle faction represented by General Xie, the view is that the empire is strong and well-prepared, and can be surrounded by a group, defeat the rogue in one fell swoop, and quickly resolve the battle. One faction is the persuasion faction represented by the first assistant, and the view is that it is better to block than to sparse, the empire should not be able to regain soldiers, and it needs to recuperate in order to prepare for a big war.

The noisy court also failed to come up with a result.

Regarding the minor friction with Yuanjiaguo, the empire has sent envoys to settle the dispute.

For Jian Shuzhi and most scholars, the rivers and lakes and temples were too far away. His ears do not listen to what is going on outside the window, and he only reads the books of the sages.

When Jian Shuzhi first entered the library pavilion, it took eight years when Jian Shuzhi climbed to the fifth floor of the library. Hong Lao accompanied him to the highest floor with high interest. Elder Hong opened his mouth and asked him, "Do you know why Spring and Autumn Academy is called an academy and not an academy?"

Regarding this issue, Jian Shuzhi really didn't think about it. In retrospect, the empire had Qinglu Academy, Tingchao Academy, Langhuan Academy, and Jingde Academy...... It is indeed strange that only Spring and Autumn are called academies, not academies.

Hong Lao told Jian Shuzhi that in the long history of Spring and Autumn College, there was a spectacular scene of hundreds of schools of thought. Some of the students are good at written expression, and the other part of the students like to study the art of war and martial arts, so they are divided into two academies.

The Academy of Letters will not mention it for the time being, just talk about the Academy of Martial Arts.

When the martial arts academy was at its most beautiful, there were two people at the same time, one was unparalleled on the battlefield, and the other dominated the rivers and lakes. There is a law in everything, and prosperity must decline.

The martial arts academy slowly began to go downhill, on the one hand, there are many capable people in the rivers and lakes, on the other hand, the inheritance token of the martial arts academy was lost, resulting in the collapse of the original library on the tenth floor of the fifth floor, the martial arts academy completely broke the inheritance, like a tree without roots, the wind is always blown away by the rain and wind, and only the next line of the academy remains. After this change, the library has become what it is now.

This is also the reason why it is called Spring and Autumn Academy, not Academy.

It turned out that there were two houses in the Spring and Autumn Period: one literary and one martial.

Spring flowers and autumn fruits, the Academy of Liberal Arts and Martial Arts. At this time, I only see spring flowers, but I don't see autumn fruits.
