Chapter 917 Xi'an Yuangu
It takes ten days to travel the three hundred miles with two legs, but it only takes one hour to run with a magical weapon like the black and white horses.
Except for the pain in his butt, Rong Tianding was filled with excitement.
In such a short period of time, they have covered such a long distance.
This even made him feel a little more like a monk with great powers.
In the distance, a county town that was larger than Chengdu was in sight. Zhang Xuezhou collected the two demon horse spiritual weapons and prepared to walk into the city.
Their festival was marked by Da Ru Yuan Gu when they left Chang'an City, which allowed Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding to enter Xi'an County without any problems.
"Cousin, will that Li Shaojun really come here?"
The translation of Soaring Cloud Technique is not complete. Rong Tianding likes the feeling of the demon horse galloping, but he yearns for flying in the sky even more freedom of manipulation.
With the ability of the Five Qi Chao Yuan, he is very likely to really soar when his cultivation level advances in the future.
He even felt that there was no other technique more powerful than the Soaring Cloud Technique. As long as it was combined with the aging technique, they could be as elusive as Li Shaojun, and it was possible to get rid of a lot of troubles.
Accordingly, Rong Tianding is very concerned about the Soaring Cloud Technique.
Although Rong Tianding believed that Zhang Xuezhou wanted to play hard to get, Rong Tianding was also afraid that Li Shaojun would stop there or lose their goal, resulting in a lack of help from the other party.
“The more you beg for a person like Li Shaojun, the more he will pinch you. The more you don’t beg him and hang on to him, the more he will chase after you until all he needs is done. Until the whole thing is completed," Zhang Xuezhou said Hand said: "Don't worry, cousin, if we enter the city today, we can definitely see him tomorrow, or even see him at Yuan Gu Daru's mansion!"
Zhang Xuezhou is not worried about Li Shaojun learning the art of soaring into the clouds. Just ran away.
They need the complete Soaring Cloud Technique, and Li Shaojun also needs the complete Soaring Cloud Technique.
Otherwise, the other party would not have discussed it with them for such a long time.
The time at the moment is enough for Li Shaojun to practice the soaring cloud technique, and it can also make the other party's mind clearer, and the previous content can be continuously verified and promoted to the subsequent parts.
It is not true to say that Soaring Cloud Technique is rare and unique. At least masters such as Nezha from Xianting have the ability to soar into the clouds and ride in the mist, and even have a high level of flying. But Dong Zhongshu from Bonawanjia is not the same. Knowing how to soar into the clouds really proves the scarcity of soaring into the clouds.
This kind of technique will indeed make Li Shaojun continue to pursue it, and the existence of the great scholar Yuan Gu also makes it difficult for Li Shaojun to have the opportunity to play tricks.
Zhang Xuezhou said a few words, which made Rong Tianding smile for a moment, but he felt that his cousin had thought it through.
The two walked for about a quarter of an hour, and then began to enter the city.
After asking a passerby, Zhang Xuezhou and others understood the status of Daru Yuangu in Xi'an County and even the surrounding areas.
This is equivalent to Sima Xiangru's reputation when he was in Liang Yuan, but Yuan Gu's reputation is not envy and love, but respect and worship.
Yuan Gu is a very representative promoter of Confucian Realm Studies, and he even has many innovations, allowing many Confucian monks in Qi to occupy important positions in Confucianism.
In the hearts of the Confucian monks in Qi, Yuan Gu is the Confucian master.
In the hearts of the people of Xi'an County, Yuan Gu is the top monk in Xi'an County, who can protect the safety of Xi'an County.
Stepping in from the city gate, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the people in Xi'an County were extremely polite. The spirit of the people in the entire county was completely different from that in other cities, and there was even the sound of people reading aloud.
This is a very rare sight. Literacy and reading are boring and boring. Even Shujuncheng relies on the county governor Wen Weng to force learning by relying on welfare benefits.
It is rare for Zhang Xuezhou to see a place where active learning takes place, especially when children in a city gather to study in a specific area.
"That must be a child from a wealthy family studying. Look, there are some children in shabby clothes watching outside the house," Rong Tianding said.
“It’s already amazing!” The atmosphere that can affect a city is extremely powerful. As for poverty and wealth, they are unavoidable in any region. Some people can afford to study, and some have young children. They have to do housework and even find it difficult to fill their stomachs.
Only by comparing it with other areas can we understand the developed side of Xi'an County.
Just as Magistrate Wen Weng thought, only if there are enough literate people can the government orders be passed through, and only in this way can the regional laws be perfected and the region will continue to become richer.
The slums outside Chang'an City are a counterexample.
Everything in that kind of slum relies on the extremely primitive law of the jungle. It is impossible for those people to be humble. To be humble and retreat means an abyss for the poor, which also causes everyone to climb up at all costs.
Zhang Xuezhou said a few words, which made Rong Tianding, who was looking for trouble, nod his head repeatedly, and the thought of pity disappeared from his heart.
"As long as there are interests, it is impossible for everyone to be equal," Zhang Xuezhou said: "They study like this, and we practice the same way. Only by constantly walking at the forefront can we lead others. Follow up!”
“Cousin, you are right!”
If there is no experience in reading, Rong Tianding obviously has experience in practice.
Only if Zhang Xuezhou, the leader, lives well, can Rong Tianding live well, and if Rong Tianding lives well, this may in turn affect his parents and relatives, leading to continuous expansion and development.
Zhang Xuezhou could only reluctantly look after him, but Yuan Gu, a great scholar, could influence a place and lead many students to study. The judgment of superiority and inferiority also made Rong Tianding aware of the energy of this kind of person.
They followed the direction pointed by passers-by and waited until they had walked more than half of the county before they saw a mansion built of ancient wood.
Normally, the mansions of wealthy families are painted with tung oil containing mineral pigments such as vermilion and ocher, giving the mansion a bright red and purple aura of wealth.
However, there is no trace of red on the wooden pillars supporting the beams in Yuan Gu's mansion. Instead, there are some green leaves growing on the pillars.
When Zhang Xuezhou rushed to the mansion, he could still see Yuan Gu taking a group of Confucian scholars to look at the green leaves on the wooden pillars, and asked these people to write poems on the theme of rotten wood and green leaves.
This is somewhat similar to a proposition composition.
A group of Confucian scholars wrote poems one after another. Some were calm and composed, some were confident, some were blushing, and some were bowing their heads in deep thought.
When Yuan Gu accidentally glanced at the two people outside the mansion, he felt a sudden joy on his face.
"The core of this question is that withered wood comes spring. You all should go home and think about it carefully, and come back to me tomorrow!"
Yuan Guji quickly made arrangements, and then asked the old servants around him to quickly leave the house to invite people. .
After the Confucian scholars filed out, Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding were also welcomed in.
"I just said that there were magpies chirping today, and it turned out that it was the two of us who arrived," Yuan Gu saluted.
"Old Master, you are polite!"
Zhang Xuezhou returned the gift with his hands raised.
Seeing Yuan Gu’s eager eyes, Zhang Xuezhou also got straight to the point.
"I came here specifically to take a look at a divine soul treasure that the old master mentioned to my cousin," Zhang Xuezhou said.
“That’s easy to say, please!”
Yuan Gu responded with a smile on his face. He no longer looked decrepit when he stepped forward, and quickly led the way ahead.
