Longevity starts from Liaozhai

Chapter 42 Wind and Rain
Qin Chuan had already returned to the small courtyard room, and there was a vermillion fruit on the simple desk.It seems that it has just been picked off, and it has a refreshing sweet fragrance, which makes people feel very comfortable, and the skin is even more moist and lustrous, plump and moist.

It is very small, about the size of a cherry.

If Wang Fu saw it, he would inevitably have some reverie.

Qin Chuan had some associations, not Wang Fu's kind, but about Zhu Guo's origin.According to the old fox, Zhu Guo has been picked by him for two months, and it still maintains such a delicious state, which is a bit unreasonable.This is one of them.

Second, the red fruit was picked by the old fox on Langshou Mountain, and the old fox's wife was even murdered by the White Wolf King because of this.

For the name White Wolf King, the current Qin Chuan is somewhat scrupulous.

Now he can easily deal with the black wolf demon back then, but the black wolf demon is just a leader of the White Wolf King. Without specific information, it is hard for Qin Chuan to say how confident he is in meeting the White Wolf King.

Could the red fruit given by the old fox be a trap of the White Wolf King?

These are hard to say.

Fortunately, Qin Chuan has a Dao species, and can observe any subtle changes in his body by looking inside.

He first lightly peeled off a small piece of flesh, put it in his mouth to chew, and then silently felt the changes in his body.

A scorching hot breath immediately spread out of Qin Chuan's body.

A trace of aura emanated from the pulp, and was quickly swallowed by the Dao Seed, but the essence of the pulp was quickly absorbed by Qin Chuan's body.

A small piece of pulp has surprisingly good effects.

Qin Chuan carefully experienced the changes in his body. Apart from the astonishing aura and essence density of the pulp, which has a tonic hot effect when it enters the body, it has no side effects.

Qin Chuan waited for a while, feeling the process of the pulp being digested in the body, the efficiency is very high, much faster than the digestion of the essence of wolf meat.

Because the pulp is transformed into pure essence immediately after entering the mouth, and does not need to be digested by the stomach.

Qin Chuan looked at himself internally, and there were still no problems.

He tasted a second piece of flesh.

Come in pieces.

Each time, he would wait for a while and observe carefully with the Dao Seed. Qin Chuan continued only after there was no problem.

The progress of Hunyuan Boy's Kung Fu accelerated accordingly.

In the end, Qin Chuan ate the whole vermilion fruit.

A vermilion fruit the size of a cherry contained aura and essence comparable to half a black wolf demon.It speeded up the progress of Qin Chuan's Hunyuan boy skill on the second level by almost one-fifth.

I heard from the old fox that the vermilion fruit grows in a dangerous place on Langshou Mountain, and it blooms and bears fruit every 60 years, with 36 vermilion fruits each time.

The White Wolf King fought against the snake demon guarding Zhu Guo 60 years ago. After the tragic victory, he picked it once, and his cultivation level improved greatly. His black hair turned into white hair, and he became the overlord of the Langshou Mountain area.

This time, the old fox and his wife picked five pieces of vermillion fruit while they were fruiting. He and his wife took one each, and the two smartest among the little foxes each took one. Qin Chuan took the last one. one piece.

The medicinal power of vermilion fruit is strong, and there is no correct way for monsters to practice. In fact, it is difficult to digest it perfectly, and it cannot be taken continuously.

If Qin Chuan didn't have the body training method such as Hunyuan Tongzi Gong, as well as the subtle control of Dao Seed, it would be difficult to withstand the impact of Zhu Guo's overbearing medicinal power.What's more, once Zhu Guo breaks his mouth, the aura and essence will flow away quickly.

Qin Chuan could clearly sense the flesh he ate later, and his aura and essence were far inferior to those at the beginning.

It's fine for him to eat it in one day, but if he divides it into several days, the loss of vermilion fruit's medicinal power will be too great.

Presumably, there are many such strange fruits in the world. Taoist priests made alchemy just to bring out the power of the medicine better, and divide it into multiple parts at the same time.

It is not only easy to absorb and refine, but also can be stored for a long time, so that its medicinal power will not be lost.

Qin Chuan lit the lamp again to study the first explanation of alchemy written in oracle bone inscriptions.Since it is the whole oracle bone inscriptions, and some alchemy terms are too uncommon, most of them Qin Chuan had to study carefully before he could roughly understand the meaning, and there were some terms that he couldn't understand at all.

In this way, to read through this oracle bone inscription, not only does he need to understand some terms used by Taoist alchemists in this world, but he also needs to spend a lot of energy.

Qin Chuan has a clue about the acquisition of knowledge of alchemy terms.

Because the Wang family supported a Chaotian Taoist temple, in which lived a Taoist priest who had studied art in Laoshan, and even Wang Fu's father himself had been to Laoshan.It is said that the Wang family's fortune has something to do with it.Relying on his relationship with Wang Fu, Qin Chuan could find an opportunity to go to Chaotian Temple to communicate with the Taoist priest.

...

...

The second day was the official teaching day of the government school.

When Qin Chuan came to Fuxue, he heard bad news, that is, Zhou Zhifu issued a school regulation, from now on, students from Fufu shall not skip classes for any non-essential reasons.

This is to strengthen the construction of the school's style of study.

Strictly speaking, the construction of the academic style of the prefectural school is also part of the achievements of the magistrate of Lingzhou.

The prefect of Zhou did this not necessarily for the sake of political achievements, but more or less because of his upright character. He couldn't understand that a small number of people in the prefectural school had a loose style of study, which caused a bad influence and brought bad influence on other students.

For example, Wang Fu, hearing the news, felt like mourning his concubine.

The prefect of Zhou wanted to teach him alone, but the prefect was busy with affairs, and Wang Fu didn't see the prefect of Zhou several times a month, so there were still many opportunities for him to catch fish.

But not being able to skip classes means being trapped in the school palace. In addition to private classes, Wang Fu cannot be absent from those public classes.

For Qin Chuan, this is not a good thing either.

Not to mention, he still has to teach the little foxes.After all, there is a small golden cake in one class, which is really a sky-high price.In addition, Qin Chuan has to spend time practicing kung fu and comprehending the alchemy book, and he has to continue to serialize the novel about marrying the right man in the wrong sedan chair when he finds time.

How can there be time to hang out in government schools.

This also made Qin Chuan more deeply aware that there are still many restrictions on the identity of a student, and candidates still have to be tested.

It's just that the township examination will be three years later, and it can't quench the near thirst.

What's more, what will happen after three years, only God knows.

Qin Chuan then went to Zhou Zhifu, hoping to obtain the qualification not to come to the prefecture to attend classes.

At worst, show off your talent and learning, poetry, articles, songs, stereotyped essays, and let Zhou Zhifu pick him at will to test him.

As a down-and-out celestial being, but a very qualified Wen Chaogong, Qin Chuan couldn't think of a reason for losing.

...

...

Qin Chuan braved the wind and rain to find Zhou Zhifu's office in the prefectural school, came to pay a visit, and explained that he did not want to go to class.

"You mean you don't want to take classes in the government school?" Zhou Ruxian frowned.

"That's exactly what students think."

Zhou Ruxian asked calmly: "Then why did you take part in the imperial examination?"

"Scholars who pass the exam can see the officials without kneeling, and they can also receive a lot of convenience in daily life. If they win the Juren and become an official, the benefits are even greater."

Daliang Chao's current ethos puts morality first, as if a person's moral problems are useless.Therefore, no scholar dares to say that reading is to be an official and enjoy the benefits.

Although Qin Chuan said this to Zhou Zhifu privately, he was quite shocked.

Zhou Zhifu was not angry, and said lightly: "I am very pleased that you are willing to tell me the truth. Human desires cannot be abolished, nor can they be abolished. If you say it, I will not refute criticism.

I have read your articles and poems, and it is really not difficult for you to become a Jinshi today.At most, before the township examination, you need to read the current text and try to figure out the intention of the examiner, but that is more a matter of ranking, not whether you can get on the list.

I know that it doesn't make much sense for you to continue studying in the government school.It's nothing more than killing time and waiting for the provincial examination.The most rare thing in life is time, which will never return.

Let's do this, I want to be serious about the school style.Although the school rules have been followed, there is still a sharp weapon that directly hits people's hearts, so that the sloppy students really want to learn.It happened that the original couplets at the gate of the government school were very worn out. I was too lazy to re-frame them, and I was not satisfied with them.If you think from my point of view and write a couplet, if it satisfies me, I will allow you not to come to the government school to attend classes, and even the bimonthly monthly exam is not required, but the annual exam in charge of the academic officer is required. here. "

Lingzhou prefecture school yearly exams are held twice every three years, and monthly exams are held every two months.

The yearly exam is responsible for learning, and the monthly exam can be finalized by the magistrate.The prefect of Zhou obviously gave Qin Chuan the greatest convenience within his authority.

He is upright, but he is not old-fashioned, and he pays more attention to practice.

At this time, there was the sound of wind and rain outside, and occasionally the sound of students from the government studying in the distance.

Qin Chuan was silent for a moment, then thought of what to copy.It's not that he can't do it, but there are better couplets that can be copied.

"Students have a couplet in their hearts, please borrow a piece of white paper and let me write it down."

He thought that this couplet was hung at the gate of Lingzhou Fuxue, so there would naturally be many learned people coming in and out, and they would always be able to absorb a lot of Wen Qi to benefit the body's evil-killing pen.

Zhu Xie Pen is the temporary name he gave to the phantom of that pen.Taking Haoran righteousness can kill evil and righteousness.

"Okay, don't use Guan Ge style, use the font you are best at, and write it for me. Do you want a pen?"

"No, the students bring it by themselves."

Qin Chuan took out the wolf hair, grinded it himself, and the pen was full of ink, like a dragon and a snake, and wrote a couplet on the white paper:
"The sound of wind and rain and the sound of reading are in your ears"

"Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, everything concerned"
