Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Yingtian Academy is only that big, and Xu Zizhen's name was quickly spread. Most of the students here already know that there is such a strange freshman who dresses like a driver and talks like a murderer. It's a pig, but it looks like a busker.

Xu Zizhen didn't know that his arrival had aroused so much curiosity from others. At this time, he had already completed the admission procedures with Dean Jiang. It's all very smooth.

There is a dormitory in the academy, called the school building, where both Qian Tongzhi and Wen Xian live, but Xu Zizhen naturally lives in his new home, there are too many things to do, and he may have to ask for leave to go out one day.

The next day Xu Zizhen came to the academy early, today he was still wearing yesterday's short coat and wooden clogs, showing off his figure with ease, attracting countless surprised eyes on the way into the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard, that is, the Xiuwen Hall is just behind the Minglun Hall yesterday. It is a world of its own, shaded by green trees and warm breeze blowing. The place where classes are held is a hall with bright windows and clean windows. The elementary and middle schools in his previous life were almost the same.

Today's lecture is a detailed explanation of the Tao Te Ching, the lecturer is an old man with white beard and hair, he quotes the scriptures and allusions during the lecture, he is indeed very knowledgeable, all the students are listening intently, no one dares to make a sound to disturb him.

But this kind of environment has made Yan Zhao suffer, he is a real warrior, not to mention the Tao Te Ching, even he can’t memorize the Three Character Classic, no matter how wonderful this old master’s speech is, it’s like a heavenly scripture to him, not a word can be heard Understand.

What about Xu Zizhen?He was not as good as Yanzhao, because the old master was inseparable when he spoke, and it was considered good if he could understand at least half of a sentence, so he resolutely lay down on the table to sleep after not long.

The old master glanced at him, and continued to teach without any indication. The dean had already explained that unless Xu Zizhen did something too outrageous, he would ignore any behavior, but this caused the whole class to I was very surprised, knowing that Yingtian Academy has strict academic regulations, not to mention sleeping in class, even a little disrespect will attract severe punishment.

Xu Zizhen didn't know anything. When others listened to other people's classes, he slept on him. He stretched himself and woke up two hours later after the class was over. He looked around sleepily: "get out of class is over?"

Yan Zhao couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't dare to imitate Xu Zizhen, so he could only bite the bullet and endured the whole class, and now his forehead was still aching, Gu Zhongchen was sitting not far from Xu Zizhen, and while packing the stationery, he said with a smile: "Old Master Sun didn't reprimand you!" Brother Xu, this is quite strange."

Xu Zizhen smiled and didn't explain. Looking at the sky outside the window, he pulled Gu Zhongchen over and asked in a low voice, "Do I have to suffer like this for a while? Can I skip class?"

Gu Zhongchen laughed: "This morning, there is only Old Master Sun's class, and there is no class in the afternoon, but it just coincides with the society day."

Xu Zizhen heaved a sigh of relief: "It's fine if you don't have classes. Damn it...it's only the first day today. How will you live the rest of the day? By the way, what do you mean by social day?"

Gu Zhongchen said: "Academy has never been afraid of talented people. Spring, summer, autumn and winter each have a day as a society day. On this day, students from the inner and outer colleges can gather together, or recite poems and paintings, or talk about the past and the present, in order to communicate and integrate. , and if someone has the wisdom and insight to mobilize the masters in the courtyard, then there will be other rewards, the students from the outer courtyard can be promoted to the inner courtyard, and the students from the inner courtyard can receive other rewards."

Xu Zizhen was not interested in this thing, so he said oh and stopped asking. Gu Zhongchen finished packing his things and stood up with a smile: "Brother Xu, if you have nothing to do, I don't know if you would like to move to a humble place. I have a few jars of old wine in my possession for brother Xu. .”

As soon as Xu Zizhen heard that there was wine to drink, he became excited, and immediately jumped up: "Walk, walk, I'm good."

All the students in the room watched Xu Zizhen leave with surprised eyes. In their minds, Gu Zhongchen was aloof and arrogant. When was he ever so polite to others?And this guy can sleep in class without being punished by his master, he is simply a mysterious legend.

Gu Zhongchen's home is not far away, just over two miles south of the academy. It is located in the middle of a busy city, but because of the deep alleys, it is a good place to find a quiet place in the middle of the noise. Xu Zizhen's eyes lit up as soon as he entered the door: "Brother Gu Do you keep pigeons?"

Gu Zhongchen said with a smile: "Exactly, my younger brother has loved this way since I was a child, and my younger brother came to study in Tianfu alone. The kindness and strictness of my family are not at ease. It is quite convenient that this messenger pigeon can still send letters to my family."

Xu Zizhen took it for granted, and followed Gu Zhongchen into the courtyard. Not far away was a row of pigeon cages, in which dozens of pigeons were kept. Their eyes and coat color were of the highest quality. It can be seen that Gu Zhongchen is still good at raising pigeons. To a certain level, Xu Zizhen grew up in a courtyard in Beijing, and several neighbors around him loved it. It can be said that he grew up listening to pigeon whistles, so he felt this familiar smell as soon as he entered the door.

The two chatted for a while about the subject of pigeons, and Yan Zhao stayed by the side the whole time, unable to get in the way. What kind of pigeons sent messages, in his opinion, the best use of this little thing was to put some soy sauce and braised it with wine.

Gu Zhongchen's wine is not very good, but it is quite mellow because of its age. After a few glasses of wine, Gu Zhongchen suddenly said: "Brother Xu, now you are a famous man in the courtyard, and you taught Zhu Shiyang a lesson yesterday. After a while, this man is narrow-minded, but there are quite a few people who know him in the courtyard, I am afraid that he will find an opportunity to make things difficult for you during the social day in the afternoon."

Xu Zizhen smiled disdainfully: "Come here, as you like."

Gu Zhongchen said sternly: "I want to persuade my brother, if you can avoid it, avoid it. Although Zhu Shiyang is not a big man, but his uncle has a lot of connections, I heard it... Brother Xu came to the academy to avoid disaster. The place behind you shouldn't be on the cusp."

This is very straightforward, Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment and was very moved. Speaking of which, he and Gu Zhongchen were just acquaintances, and even at the beginning they were jealous because of Shui Liuli, but what Gu Zhongchen said now can be regarded as a heart-to-heart The word loyalty.

Xu Zizhen drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, patted Gu Zhongchen on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Gu, for worrying about me, but some people can't let go, just like I said yesterday, once you let him go , I will not take the initiative to cause trouble, but whoever wants to provoke me, then I will let him go around."

Gu Zhongchen was stunned, but then he smiled and said, "My little brother is worrying too much. Brother Xu is such a character, how can he be bullied by such a villain. Come, drink and drink."

The drink ended in a happy chat, and in the afternoon, the three of them returned to the academy with a bit of alcohol, and the social day had already begun.

The bridge that Xu Zizhen passed yesterday was called Zhuangyuan Bridge, and after crossing the bridge, there was an open square where the activities of the social day were held. When the three of them arrived, the square was already very lively. Gathered here, or in groups of three or four to chant wind and flowers, or set up another corner to talk and talk.

Gu Zhongchen said: "This is the day of the society. Brother Xu can walk around at will, and if there is a topic you like, you can share it."

Xu Zizhen waved his hand and was about to say something, but a graceful and beautiful woman happened to be walking by him, who was the beauty he saw yesterday.
