Chapter 758 Returning Home with Success
Chapter 758 Returning Home with Success
"Humans have yin and yang in their nature, which are innate and blend together to create spiritual power..."
Liang Qu stroked the pages of the book and read it carefully.
He was very studious on weekdays, and as he had been less busy at the Hebo Office recently, he asked Su Guishan for the titles of two books. He immediately took time out to run to Shanghu Academy, greeted the principal, and plunged into the ocean of knowledge to search and study.
Ever since Pingyang Town was changed from a county to a prefecture, and then to a state and a county were added after the prefecture was established, the Shanghu Academy where I studied for half a year has expanded more than ten times and has become the most famous academy in the entire Pingyang Prefecture.
Every evening after class, the sunset is orange and red, and there are crowds of people.
A huge crowd of students in plain clothes came out all at once, riding horses and sitting in sedan chairs, in groups of two or three, and they were enough to flood the bluestone street that could accommodate three carriages running side by side.
Anyone who has urgent or important matters to attend to will always take a detour.
As the academy expanded, the quality of its collections naturally improved, either through funding from the government or through donations from high-ranking officials and gentry.
If you have enough money, you can buy all kinds of books, even some low-quality and inferior martial arts.
As a former "alumni", Liang Qu was humble, but was honored to be listed among the high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The most recent expansion was in the middle of last year. He had plenty of money and donated 100 taels to have President Zhao engrave it on the courtyard wall.
"It turns out that the Yuan Yin and Yuan Yang of ordinary people are too weak to be noticeable. One must practice to the level of a galloping horse before they can show obvious signs."
Liang Qu read on line by line.
Yuan Yin and Yuan Yang are innate energies, which do help a little in spiritual practice, helping to enter a state of concentration or realization. If Yuan Yang and Yuan Yin are blended, even without a dual cultivation method, they can benefit from each other. Otherwise, if only one of them benefits, the other will suffer a loss and the other will benefit.
"Not everyone can use the dual cultivation technique."
The book is rich in content and comprehensive in introduction.
No matter what kind of dual cultivation method is used, it is very rare that both parties can benefit at the same time. Most of the time, one party loses and the other gains. The essence is the method of gathering and replenishing. When a person of higher realm performs it on a person of lower realm, not only is the efficiency low, the latter may even be in danger of life, unless both people have special physiques.
Come to think of it, there is really no need to suffer. If everyone had a book on dual cultivation and practiced it in their spare time, the world would be a harmonious place.
As for how to identify those who have not lost their virginity.
There is nothing special about it, it’s just a matter of practice.
There is indeed a difference between those who have Yuan Yang and Yuan Yin, but a person who has never smelled the taste of an apple, if he blindfolds himself and smells the fragrance of an apple, will not be able to tell that it is an apple.
In the past, several senior brothers lined up and asked him to familiarize himself with their own auras one by one, which was also to make it easier to distinguish the auras of different realms.
In other words.
Su Guishan had eaten and seen both kinds of food before, and had seen them many times, so he was able to distinguish them.
Liang Qu had little experience and practiced too quickly, so he didn't know much about many branches.
"Why do you come to see this kind of thing?"
"Mr. Si?"
Liang Qu looked back and was surprised.
He had sensed someone approaching before, but he didn't expect it to be Si Hengyi, the teacher who taught him to read at Shanghu Academy.
"Don't!" Si Hengyi took two steps back, "I dare not call myself a gentleman in front of Lord Liang."
"Since you have taught me to read, you will be my teacher for life. Mr. Si, are you still teaching in the academy?"
A few years ago, Si Hengyi was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He looked young, energetic and approachable. Now he has a short beard, is getting into middle age, and wears a gray shirt. Although he looks more like a scholar, he has lost his friendliness.
Si Hengyi laughed.
"In a few years, you have risen from the position of River Lord to the position of Water Controller. I am not as good as you, but I have not stopped at the same level. Now I have been promoted to a small position and am in charge of more courtyard affairs. I can get an extra two taels of salary every month. Why did you come to read the book on dual cultivation and find your sweetheart?"
"Mr. Si has never received any cakes before?"
"Oh, I remember now. I thought it was for no reason. Why did you send me cakes? It turned out to be wedding cakes!"
Si Hengyi suddenly realized, looked outside the house again, and immediately grabbed Liang Qu's arm and led him out.
"It's a rare opportunity to come to the academy, Sir Liang, please leave a piece of calligraphy before you go! Let the younger generation see how elegant and graceful this senior from the same academy, now the youngest great martial artist in Dashun, is!"
"This..." Liang Qu put the book back on the shelf, reluctantly, "I have only been in the academy for half a year, and I have not studied calligraphy. I am afraid I can't write anything."
"No problem." Si Hengyi had taught Liang Qu before, so he knew the other person's handwriting level very well. "You are a great tiger hunter martial artist, and your power control is extraordinary. You don't have your own style, so just imitate others. Don't worry, there are plenty of copybooks in the academy."
That’s it for now.
It would be rude to refuse again.
After getting consent, Si Hengyi turned around and reported to the headmaster.
In a short while, all the teachers stopped teaching, and the students in each classroom rushed out, surrounding the pond, chattering and making a lot of noise.
The students are of different ages, both male and female.
From the enlightenment children aged eight or nine to the "old actors" aged fourteen or fifteen.
"Who is Liang Qu?" "I don't know him."
"Hiss, you guys are from the countryside? Liang Qu doesn't even know you? An eighteen-year-old great martial arts master, the only one in the world, the one who walked through the Meridian Gate, my father and mother both guessed how old he was, he must be almost twenty this year, right?"
"I said it sounds familiar. He looks about the same age as us."
"He has a strange heroic look and is really good-looking." Some female students were talking among themselves.
"Normally, not as pretty as me!"
"In another year, I will be able to practice martial arts, and then I will break this record!"
The male students stuffed their buttocks with hair, spread them out like fans, vying for beauty.
The whole scene was noisy.
The older people have heard of Liang Qu's name and know how exaggerated his achievements today are.
The younger ones have no idea who Liang Qu is, but because of this incident, they don’t have to stay in the house and study with their heads nodding, so they know that he is a very good person.
"Quiet!"
Si Hengyi's face was stern, and the students were afraid.
Liang Qu suddenly understood what position Si Hengyi was promoted to.
Grade Director!
Pairs of dark and bright eyes stared at him.
Fourteen or fifteen years old, the most restless age, eyes full of admiration.
Two students who were in good spirits were asked to come forward and spread out a long strip of paper.
Si Hengyi ground the brush himself and handed over the brush.
Look around.
Shanghu Academy has been expanded several times, and the layout and appearance of the place where students used to study have changed a lot. Only a few old teachers and the principal are familiar.
Liang Qu always felt that something was different, and yet something was exactly the same.
In just a few years, he took one big step after another, one that he couldn't even believe.
I lowered my head to stare at the white paper in front of me, combined with my own experience, and put a pen on it. I wanted to write a sentence like "I have experienced ups and downs in my life, and I should quickly achieve fame and honor", or "If a man wants to establish fame and honor, he must look forward".
But then he paused.
Another sentence suddenly popped up in my mind.
Hold your breath, concentrate, and pick up the pen.
"When the Way is about to be practiced, people will compete to praise it. People will attach great importance to its name, people will spread its reputation, and people will share its glory."
flamboyant.
Liang Qu finished his writing with satisfaction.
……
The weather is getting colder and the leaves are falling.
Life returned to how it was before.
The tender look of Long Eying looking up her pretty face and saying she was so tired never appeared again, and it seemed like an illusion.
She meditated and practiced every day, taught the water beasts to speak, and occasionally rejected Liang Qu's clinginess. She had given him the mermaid silk a month ago and there was no sound of it.
"Eh……"
Liang Qu was lying on the swing alone.
An uneventful second half of the year.
No chance to make merit.
There is no opportunity to make money or earn valuable results.
The only way to maintain this life is to stay at home and soak in the pool.
Just as I was reminiscing about the warmth in my memory, Li Libo, Chen Jiechang and Lin Songbao came in from the side door, each holding three large boxes.
"Brother Shui!"
"Why are you here?" Liang Qu turned over and sat up. "You just came back from the Hebo Office, right? You have to go to the martial arts hall in the afternoon. Why don't you go back to catch up on some sleep?"
"I was going to go back." Li Libo's mouth was full of egg yolk pastry, and he spoke vaguely, "Lord Wei came out of retreat, saying that he was promoted to Grandmaster. He gave everyone wedding cakes, one box per person, and asked us to send you ten boxes. I think they are better than the ones you sent that day, Brother Shui."
