Chapter 3 The Fierce Little Beauty(1/2)

The river view in Wuling is beautiful, especially at the turn of spring and summer, the river water is green and the river flowers are like fire.

Tang Yu would come to the riverside every day to see the beautiful river view.

"It's been thirty days..."

He is counting numbers and living his life. Every day he passes, he feels disappointed. Until now, he is almost desperate.

Sometimes he thought that he came here because of a nightmare, could he go back after having another dream at night, but for thirty days, he had thirty days of dreaming, and he was still here.

This forced him to consider accepting this absurd fact.

A few days ago, he also began to try to understand the world in front of him.

This world is called the Sky Continent. The city in front of him is located in the east of the Sky Continent and belongs to the Chu State, a vassal state under the Great Zhou Empire.

"Everything is inferior, only reading is high." This is the most wise saying of the Great Zhou world. Reading, enriching one's own talents and fame, is not only the lifelong goal of poor scholars, but also the highest pursuit of scholarly families and juniors in official families.

What is fame and fame? What surprised Tang Yu was that fame and fame were not scholars or scholars, but practice.

Taking reading as the foundation and talent as the foundation, to understand the mystery of heaven, earth and man, and step into the mysterious world of practice, this is fame and fortune.

Tang Yu didn't know the mystery of this.

The knowledge in this world emphasizes "heart transmission and oral teaching". Things like books are very precious. According to the laws and regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if you have no merits and reputations, private collection of books is a death sentence.

In other words, books are impossible among the people. Even scholars can only rely on the Master’s “heart-to-heart teaching” to obtain knowledge before they pass the exam. Therefore, Tang Yu has no other channel to understand the world, let alone obtain knowledge, except for listening to Su Yong’s nagging.

Fate and fame are a symbol of the noble status of a practitioner. Only with fame and fame can one travel around the country. Otherwise, ordinary civilians would have to behead themselves if they dare to leave their homes for hundreds of miles.

Compared with civilians, merchants are a little more free, but they cannot have a vassal area. The so-called "新" word for merchants refers to merchants who are recognized by princes and kings and can walk freely in their own country. Among civilians, they are also privileged and knowledgeable people.

Zhou Ruhai from the Zhou family is a businessman.

Also, the level of clothing and clothing is also strict. Common people are not allowed to wear robes, and even more so are not allowed to wear silk. Wearing silk robes, rolled up arrow sleeves, and embroidered with exquisite patterns is a symbol of the identity of the scholarly family.

The robe that Tang Yu wore now is a symbol of the privileges of the children of the scholarly family.

Zhou Ruhai, the Zhou family, even if he is rich, he will only dare to wear a long robe at most. He will definitely not wear a silk coat. He will roll up arrow sleeves like Tang Yu and show up outside. Once investigated, he will be punished for death!

Undoubtedly, this is an era where the cost of obtaining knowledge is very high, and it is also an era where scholars are extremely scarce, and naturally it is also the era where scholars are most respected.

Without fame and fortune, hiding a book is a death sentence, which almost ruins the possibility of most common people's children obtaining knowledge.

Merchants like the Zhou family usually spend a lot of money to invite the master to open a school, so that the younger generations of the family can first learn to learn literacy and educate them before they can take the middle school entrance exam after they have obtained some basic knowledge.

Only those who can get into middle school can become scholars. Generally, this type of scholar is called scholars, or "small fame". If a child from a non-school family has a small fame, he can be allowed to wear a long robe, a square scarf, and a folding fan, but he cannot store books or wear silk.

Middle schools are run by the government, and there will be practitioners selected by princes and kings to teach them. If you can perform well in middle schools, once you understand the mystery of practice, you will have the opportunity to enter higher education.

And higher education is the real fame!

The examination for high school entrance examination was personally presided over by the princes and was called the king's examination. Before the examination, the princes and kings would hold a grand ceremony to sacrifice to heaven, and the scene was extremely grand.

It is necessary for students to fast for three days before the exam. During the exam, students must undergo strict examinations of talent and cultivation, and only after passing the examination can they enter higher education.

Above high school, it is a legendary college that makes scholars throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty regarded as the ultimate goal.

If you want to enter the academy, you need to take the national examination. The emperor of the Great Zhou Empire was the chief examination. During the national examination, the princes of the five countries gathered in the imperial capital, and the scene would be even greater.

Tang Yu can know so much, which is also due to Su Yong's "oral teaching" these days.

There are so many complicated things, the only thing that resonates with him is the word "middle school".

He traveled through time just because he didn't get into a key middle school. Unexpectedly, in such a strange world, he still couldn't avoid this cruel examination system and had to take the middle school...

But such an exam is really too difficult for Tang Yu... In comparison, the requirements for 7A of key middle schools on Earth are really simple.

Tang Yu is going to take the Four Books and Five Classics, poetry, songs, and eight-legged parallel prose. He really couldn't think of where his future was, and he couldn't go back again. There was no hope of survival in this world.

Even if he wanted to work hard and didn't even want to find a book, he couldn't find a piece of paper with words when he searched through his residence. In this world where even a book was hidden, Tang Yu really didn't know what to do next...

So he still stares in a daze more every day, and the worry on Su Yong's face became increasingly strong. Fortunately, Tang Yu is simply introverted and likes to indulge in his own small world. If it were other classmates who had been involved in such a thing, he might have been crazy long ago...

...

"Um?"

Tang Yu's body was shocked suddenly.

A scent of fragrance brushed across his nose, and a light green dress swung past his eyes.

As soon as he looked up, a girl passed by him. The woman was about twenty years old and was wearing a long green dress with light blue peonies embroidered on the cuffs of the long skirt. The hem of silver wire covered her calves, highlighting her extremely graceful figure.

Because she was just a glance, Tang Yu did not see her appearance, but seeing her every move as graceful as the wind blows on the willows, she must be a beauty.

However, what shocked Tang Yu was not the beauty of women or the mellow fragrance of wind, but the fact that he saw something - a book.

It was indeed a book, held by a girl on her chest.

Without any hesitation, he stood up and immediately followed.

If this is on earth, he definitely doesn't have the courage. He blushed when talking to girls at school. How dare he throw his arms around and rush behind the beautiful woman?

In fact, his mind was all about that book. Now a book is definitely more attractive to him than the Internet cafe next to the school back then. Even a piece of paper with words was enough to stimulate his rapid secretion of adrenaline and give everything.

"You must read this book, even if you borrow it for a moment!"

With such thoughts, he was even more excited and his steps were getting faster and faster.

But he could see the woman in front of him, but he couldn't catch up.

Looking at the woman, she was like a weak willow and helping the wind, and she didn't seem to be fast, but Tang Yu couldn't catch up with her all the way. She was really evil.

Tang Yu gritted his teeth, simply shook his arms and ran all the way.

He was about to catch up with him, but he happened to run into an alley in front of him. The girl's figure flashed like a butterfly and disappeared around the corner.

"Hey, learn together... that...don't..."

"Huh, Huh..." Tang Yu plunged into the alley panting, and where could he see the shadow of the other party?

He was so tired that he was sweating profusely, his weak body was almost disintegrating, and his inner depression made him even more disheartened.

"How could it be impossible to catch up? It's not a ghost, it's impossible to catch up even if you run so fast?"

"not good!"

Tang Yu suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked down and saw that the bluestone ground under his feet began to melt like asphalt.

His feet were stuck tightly.

Then his body began to sink and instantly passed his calves.

He tried all his strength to lift his feet, but he couldn't lift them up.

Tang Yu had never seen such a strange thing in his life. Seeing his body falling uncontrollably, he shouted in horror: "Help, help... that...oh..."

"Hmph! Dead Ding Ding, I thought you had some amazing cultivation. It turned out to be a fool!"

A sneer sounded, and in the shadow on the left side of the alley, the woman in the green skirt just now walked out of the shadow.

Tang Yu turned his head and saw the other party. The girl had extremely delicate facial features, melon-shaped face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and her lips slightly opened, revealing her white and moist teeth like white shells. Her big eyes were full of jokes and playfulness, staring at Tang Yu tightly.

When Tang Yu saw someone, he calmed down a little and said hurriedly:

"I've misunderstood, misunderstanding, Miss, my classmates, I'm looking for you... to find you..."

Tang Yu stared at the girl's chest with his eyes blankly. He saw clearly that the girl holding her chest was indeed a book.

The brown book cover is very delicate and the cover is pressed by cowhide. There are a few words on it, although it is written in a weird way, but he knows: "Encyclopedia of Western Emblem Illustrations..." This should be the title of the book.

Seeing Tang Yu's embarrassing look, the girl looked at Tang Yu was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her expression had already calmed down and she was about to speak with a smile, but when she and Tang Yu looked at Tang Yu's eyes and the part she was looking at, a red cloud instantly dyed her face, and the next moment she was covered with frost.

"You dare to argue, you, the disciple, today I want to eliminate harm for the people!"

I saw the girl muttering something in her mouth and suddenly raised her hand.

"Brave bang!"

Tang Yu didn't understand what was going on, and the pebbles in the sky were smashed down like hail.

"Ah...Oh...My God..."

Tang Yu was originally very weak, and when the stones were smashed, he immediately howled the wolf cried and howled.

"I am for the book, that book, classmate, I... want to read the book...that book..."

Tang Yu shouted weaker and weaker, and in the end he was simply inaudible.

Finally, the girl seemed to understand something and took the spell.

Tang Yu's legs became weak and he collapsed to the ground. Judging from his appearance, his hair was messy and his face was green and green. Not to mention how embarrassed he was.

But he still struggled to get up, his lips tilted and he wanted to speak, but as soon as he spoke, he felt dizzy, his eyes turned black, and he fainted like this, his body was weak...

...

I was dizzy, really dizzy!

In a daze, Tang Yu felt aggrieved and depressed inside. He didn't read the book and was beaten up. He was so unlucky. He even had a bad luck when drinking water.

For the past month, he has been spending his depression and melancholy every day. After all, he is still a student. Even though his mind is stronger than his peers, he is still not as good as an adult. Even if an adult encounters such a thing, there are probably few who will not collapse.

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt, and finally howled and burst into tears.
To be continued...
