I have a magical tree

The school is not small, with two huge thatched cottages and several small thatched cottages.

A circle of low walls encloses a large courtyard, half of which is a bamboo forest. The thatched cottage is hidden in the bamboo forest, and there are already many children who have arrived earlier playing in the bamboo forest, which is quite interesting.

Moreover, Xu Dao really saw adults here, although there are not many, but there are indeed some, but what moved him even more was that there were many girls among those children.

This made him like this school more. You know, the more poor and remote the place, the more serious the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls. It is not easy to be willing to support, and it is even more difficult to learn to read and write.

As if noticing Xu Dao's gaze, Ding Ping said: "In the school, girls do not need to pay tuition to study, and they can also have a free meal at noon!"

Xu Dao was surprised.

"The gentleman was once gossiped by the people in the town for this, saying that the gentleman had a low character and bad intentions! Later, he gradually became better!" Ding Ping was still indignant when talking about this matter. In his mind, the gentleman was the most respectable person, but he suffered such injustice, which was really unjust!

"Now I agree with your previous words. This Mr. Cui is indeed a good man!" Xu Dao smiled and said.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

As the two were talking, a handsome young man in a blue shirt walked out of a thatched cottage with a book under his arm and came to a broken gong hanging under the eaves of the thatched cottage. He picked up a drumstick and knocked it.

Suddenly, all the children playing in the bamboo forest stopped and ran into the thatched cottage.

"Master, class is about to start! If you are interested, you can listen outside the thatched cottage. The gentleman will not pay attention."

"You go by yourself, don't worry about me!"

Ding Ping nodded and ran into the thatched cottage.

Xu Dao looked at Mr. Cui. He was indeed young, and looked to be in his twenties or thirties. However, for practitioners like them, it was impossible to judge the specific age just by looking at the face.

There were many things that could be said about appearance. Some old monsters may have lived for thousands of years, but they looked like children.

And this Mr. Cui... Xu Dao frowned. He couldn't tell whether this person had any cultivation. If he looked at his physique, he seemed to be at the level of an ordinary person, but his spirituality was so abundant, and he didn't look like a Qi Refiner.

Although Xu Dao had fallen in realm. His strength was greatly reduced, his eyesight and perception were still there, so he couldn't have made a mistake.

But to say that Mr. Cui was an ordinary person seemed wrong.

Weird! Very weird! As if sensing Xu Dao's gaze, Mr. Cui also turned his head and looked over.

Xu Dao smiled and put his hands together in a salute, and Mr. Cui also bowed in return.

Mr. Cui seemed a little surprised. He had seen many ordinary villagers. He had been here for three years, and many adults were interested in this place. There were quite a few people who came to listen, but... this was the first time he saw a monk.

As far as he knew, there was no temple in Tianshui Town, so there would be no monks. And as soon as he saw the monk's face, he knew that he should be an outsider!

It was this face that looked so strange, even a little scary.

At this time, Xu Dao had not fully recovered. Most of his blood and qi were lost, and his face was thin and looked bad. This was the result of his recovery.

When he first arrived here, he didn't even dare to go out. It was not because of shame, but because he was afraid of scaring others!

However, Mr. Cui didn't think much about it. He just nodded at Xu Dao and turned to enter the thatched cottage.

Xu Dao came to the outside of the thatched cottage and found a place to stand at random.

Although he said he was listening, he was actually just interested in Mr. Cui.

However, what surprised him was that Mr. Cui's lecture was really good. Although they were all very simple things, they were very organized and well-organized.

This made him more convinced of one thing, that Mr. Cui's background was probably not bad. Ordinary scholars do not have this level.

Literacy and reading are only the lowest threshold for scholars. Building a complete and complex knowledge system is the most difficult, because it is impossible for one person to accomplish it. It requires a complete and powerful teacher-student relationship, and the efforts and arrangement of generations.

As time passed, the one-hour class ended quickly. Xu Dao was actually fascinated by it. Although Xu Dao had learned these things by self-study when he was a few years old. There was no benefit in listening again, but he still listened with relish, mainly because Mr. Cui's lectures were not boring.

It's rare that this is a gentleman with real talent and knowledge!

Mr. Cui came out of the thatched cottage with a book under his arm. Seeing Xu Dao standing outside the thatched cottage, he paused and said, "Master, nice to meet you!"

"Donor Cui, nice to meet you!"

"Master, why are you here?" Mr. Cui was very curious. He only needed to see the monk's attire and temperament to know that the monk must be literate and there was no need to come here to listen. Since he was not useful, why did he come here? It seems that he had other purposes.

"I accidentally ended up here and am now staying at Ding Ping's house. I heard about Donor Cui's actions, so I became interested in Donor Cui and came to see him!" Xu Dao explained, and at the same time, he was also showing goodwill. So that Mr. Cui would not think too much.

"I see..." Mr. Cui nodded, "Then please move, Master, and follow me to have a cup of tea!"

"Then I'm sorry to bother you!" Xu Dao followed Mr. Cui's footsteps and entered a thatched cottage.

Entering the thatched cottage, the first thing you see is a lot of books. The cottage is not big, and the furnishings are even simpler. There are a lot of bookshelves filled with books, and then there is a desk and a simple bamboo bed.

"Master, please sit down. My home is simple and I am sorry for not entertaining you well!" Mr. Cui put down the book in his hand and began to prepare to boil water for tea.

"The fragrance of books in a humble room is better than carved beams and painted buildings. Donor Cui is amazing!"

"Master, you are too kind!" Mr. Cui smiled and shook his head, "I just love reading books, but I don't have any skills!"

"I heard about the rules set by Donor Cui here, but I don't know why it is so?"

"Supplement?"

Xu Dao nodded.

Mr. Cui smiled, "Actually, I am not short of money, let alone the tuition. However, knowledge is priceless. I want to tell them that knowledge is precious and hard-earned by collecting tuition. Only in this way will they cherish what they have learned and invest more energy!"

Xu Dao nodded, "Donor Cui is very wise!"

He had discovered before that the tuition set by Mr. Cui was exactly the level that the poorest family in the town could afford with a little effort. This was very interesting.

If Mr. Cui really loved money, he didn't have to do this. He only needed to increase the tuition and he could earn it many times through the wealthy families.
