Coincidentally!My name is Liu Bian

Chapter 234 Farewell to Beihai Academy

Studying at "Beihai Academy" should have continued, but there was not much left before the agreed time.

Therefore, when Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi decided the winner without spending too much time, Liu Bian had to reconsider even if he didn't think about the separation four days later. After all...

"Brother Bian, it's still early. Do you and I want to compete in reading aloud again?" Suddenly, he heard Sima Lang using the new words he had mastered to suggest, "Maybe we can win this time?"

--yes!If he and Sima Lang still haven't decided the winner after four days, will it be his regret?No, no, no... With a thought in his heart, Liu Bian came to his senses and said cheerfully:

"as you wish."

So, Liu Bian and Sima Lang gave the students time to adapt and decided not to waste the remaining time and seize the opportunity to study——

All the students were almost shocked: they never expected that after Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi's writing... ahem ~ calligraphy competition, Senior Brother He and Senior Brother Sima Lang would actually continue the recitation competition?
This is too hard!
However, the students enjoyed it.

The students prepared paper, ink and pens and once again performed the listening and writing part.

Because Liu Bian and Sima Lang did not adopt a strict competition system, such as who could read better or be more understandable within a specified time, so Liu Bian and Sima Lang fought until the evening, and they were still neck and neck!

As usual, Sima Lang suggested to Liu Bian to come back tomorrow.

Liu Bian agreed, showing no dissatisfaction, only showing a little sadness, and sighed abruptly: "Brother Lang, what should we do if we never get to the end of the game?"

Sima Lang said: "Then keep racing, and there will be an outcome one day."

"But, I won't stay in Beihai Academy! "Liu Bian said, "In a few days, I will go back to my hometown, and...and, maybe I will never come back again. "

what?
After hearing this, not only Sima Lang, but also all the students were extremely surprised, including Sima Yi and other unaware people.

"Didn't I tell you that I can only study at Beihai Academy for fourteen days? Liu Bian lowered his head in time, with a guilty look on his face, "I will return to Nanpi County in fourteen days." "

"You... why do you want to go back to Nanpi County?" Sima Lang couldn't help but ask.

There are many reasons, but I can’t say them! ——Sighing, Liu Bian whispered: "This...when I came to "Beihai Academy" before, I told you in advance that I could only stay for fourteen days! "

Sima Lang said "Oh" and didn't ask any further.

The students who were watching were silent, but their eyes were darting wildly.

"I hope that in the coming days, you and I can achieve satisfactory results." Liu Bian said with a compliment.

There was no mention of what would happen if he and Sima Lang were still tied.

Sima Lang was silent for a moment and then said: "I hope so? In fact..."

Actually what?
Sima Lang paused and stopped talking.

It's a pity that Liu Bian didn't ask any more questions.

After clapping his hands, Liu Bian glanced at the window and said with a smile, "It turns out it's almost evening."

Isn't it? ——The sun was shining brightly before, but now it’s the setting sun over the hills.

No need for Liu Bian to explain, everyone understands: It’s time to disperse, it’s time to disperse!

"Senior Brother He!" A student shook the dried paper in his hand, "Do you want more?"

"Of course!" Liu Bian replied without hesitation.

Then, Liu Bian bought all the papers copied by the students, took them away, and said goodbye to the students.

On the way back to "Dashe No. [-]" with Xun Yu and others, Liu Bian was empty-handed. He looked at Xu Shu who was holding a new piece of paper, deliberately slowed down, walked to Xu Shu's side, and whispered:

"How are the two pigeons you fed?"

The corner of Xu Shu's mouth curled up, as if he wasn't surprised, and he replied in a low voice: "It's been so lively, sir, do you want to use it?"

"Yes." Liu Bian sighed, "We are about to set off... I want to send a letter to Zhuge Jin and ask if it is necessary to take a boat from Huang County to Fuyang County, Gaocheng County, or Yangxin County. how long?"

He was a little worried: he didn't know when he would send a letter to Zhuge Jin. When would Zhuge Jin receive it?
What's more, he has to think about how Mr. Zheng Xuan can get to Nanpi County? ——The land route is quite far, don’t even think about it if we don’t have 20 days!What about waterways?The waterway is always faster, right?But I heard Xu Shu say: "Master, take a boat back to Bohai County from Huang County. It can take as long as three days or as fast as one day! Especially after six days, the wind direction and weather are particularly favorable!"

"Ah?" Liu Bian was dumbfounded, his intuition misheard, "How did you know?" His heart skipped a beat.

Xu Shu said nervously: "I've been very interested in astronomy recently... If I'm not wrong. However, you don't have to wait six days before setting off. Maybe I'm wrong?"

"Can you guarantee?" Liu Bian looked at Xu Shu seriously, "Can you guarantee that it will be the best time to take the boat in six days?"

Xu Shu's expression froze and he hesitated: "I...I..."

Xu Shu couldn't answer and couldn't guarantee it.

Liu Bian said: "I'll give you two more days to prepare. Do you want to do the math?"

Xu Shu said: "Master, you... do you really believe me?"

Do you believe in my learning ability and my thorough grasp of astronomy?
Liu Bian's mouth twitched and he said helplessly: "Is any of us very proficient in astronomy?"

Xu Shu grinned and said: "—No!"

Even the most talented Xun Yu was not necessarily good at astronomy.

Suddenly, Xu Shu seemed to have regained his confidence and promised: "Master, if you believe me, we will take a boat in six days and we will be able to go back soon!"

Raising his eyebrows, Liu Bian looked at Xu Shu strangely, not quite understanding why Xu Shu vowed again.

Are you sure you can't guarantee it?
Later, Liu Bian thought again: It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!If Xu Shu didn't understand astronomy, he could ask Mr. Zheng Xuan for advice.
Don’t forget that Mr. Zheng Xuan is a world-famous wise man and the teacher who accepted him as his disciple... If not Mr. Zheng Xuan, who else can you ask?

With a plan in mind, Liu Bian became more and more relaxed and responded: "Then let's pack our luggage earlier in the next few days? If you need anything, prepare it in advance."

"——Okay! Just Yi Gongzi!" Xu Shu said.

At the same time, this is also Xu Shu’s answer on behalf of everyone.

Looking intently, while Xun Yu and others were carrying books and papers, they quietly came to their senses and remembered that in four days, everyone would say goodbye to "Beihai Academy"...

Are you really leaving?
Involuntarily, everyone sighed secretly: It would be better to leave.If you think about it carefully, in just ten days, everyone has completed all the tasks that should be completed. For example, all the ancient books collected by "Beihai Academy" have been copied in more than one copy, not to mention that students must use them when studying. There are even more related books!
Furthermore, dozens or hundreds of students listened, listened, wrote and wrote, and the accumulation was quite large.

Ling Ling Zong Zong, even if it is taken away on a cart, it is too little!
Anyone who sees this fruitful achievement will be jealous and sigh with emotion about the power of unity——

Otherwise, the amount of paper for these carts will definitely not be completed in a short period of time!

...After listening to Xu Shu say that it would be best to take a boat in Huang County in six days, Liu Bian still wanted to send a letter to Zhuge Jin or Shi Yue to find out whether Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei knew that he was in the "Beihai Academy" and that he was from Nanpi, Bohai County. Has the road construction process from the county to Yincheng, Beihai County started?

He also wants to know how efficient the "flying pigeon message" here is!
He did whatever he thought of, and that night Liu Bian went to Xu Shu and used the two carrier pigeons to send letters to Zhuge Jin and Shi Yue respectively——

I hope Zhuge Jin and Shi Yue can receive it soon?
The speed of "flying pigeons delivering messages" is surprising.

That night, Liu Bian sent a letter, and early the next morning, Liu Bian... actually received a reply!
Zhuge Jin's letter arrived first, and Shi Yue's letter followed.

Sure enough, Zhuge Jin replied that County Magistrate Liu, General Guan, and General Zhang all knew Liu Bian's whereabouts.Zhuge Jin also comforted Liu Bian not to be anxious, because Magistrate Liu, General Guan and General Zhang also pretended not to know...

Shi Yue replied that road construction is in progress, but it will take at least forty days to completely repair it. The currently repaired road section cannot support Nanpi County to quickly reach Beihai County. At most, the journey will be reduced from 20 days to [-] days. Fifteen days!

But does it work?
Useless!

It's too slow!

Liu Bian pouted: Sure enough, it won't work!It seems that he has to choose to take the water route!
Immediately afterwards, Liu Bian replied to Shi Yue, warning Shi Yue to repair the road, and then wrote to Zhuge Jin asking how long it would take to get from Huang County to Fuyang County by boat. He received a reply half a day later: the fastest would be two to four days; As slow as about seven days!
This also alarmed Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang hurriedly wrote a letter to his brother, thinking about him throughout and looking forward to Zhuge Jin's letter.

Liu Bian was a little relieved: It seems that the time specified by Xu Shu might be enough for one day?

This is great!
While Liu Bian and his party were packing their bags in a calm manner, the news that "Mr. Zheng Xuan is about to go to Nanpi County to serve as the dean of Nanpi Academy, a branch of Beihai Academy" was suddenly and thoroughly spread... …
