Chapter 31: The Psychic Academy and the Pavilion of the Scriptures
The Lingyu Academy is a large-scale ancient academy that sits on the mountainside of the Missionary Peak, and above the academy is the scripture pavilion of the Linghuan Gate.
Wu Meng got up early in the morning, first practiced physical skills, made breakfast for himself, and then went to the legendary Spiritual Academy according to the map. The magnificent atmosphere and ancient academy did not disappoint Wu Meng, but unfortunately, she didn't understand the teacher's lectures.
She didn't understand what kind of cultivation, what kind of formation, what kind of alchemy, what kind of talisman, etc. Although she was very interested, she didn't even have an introduction, so how could she understand the things of the improvement class?
After searching for a long time, I finally found something to learn in the front classroom. literacy classes, and paleography classes. The characters commonly used in the world of cultivating immortals are similar to the traditional characters of Chinese characters, which is no problem for Wu Meng at all.
The ancient characters are the classics of cultivating immortals, especially the texts in the ancient classics of cultivating immortals. Because a large part of the current immortal cultivation classics are recorded in ancient characters, if you don't know ancient characters, you may miss a great opportunity in minutes.
Therefore, Linghuanmen attaches great importance to the study of ancient characters. It is said that the number of ancient characters is also used to measure whether the outer gate and the inner door are marked.
Knowing the importance of ancient characters, Wu Meng was of course very active in listening to the lecture. Although Wu Meng only started to listen to the lecture in the middle of the way, with Wu Meng's comprehension and the housekeeper's computing ability, he has been communicating with the surrounding Taoist friends from time to time, and by the end of the class, Wu Meng has caught up with the progress of others.
It can be used to form sentences, and simple articles can be understood. As for not being able to read longer texts, it is because there are not many ancient characters mastered.
It's too slow to learn like this, if only there was a dictionary. Thinking of this, Wu Meng pushed the little Lori next door, "Hello, excuse me." ”
Little Lori looked a little displeased when she was disturbed, "What's the matter?"
"Is there a dictionary? It is a rhyme book, a book that explains the meaning of ancient characters. Wu Meng asked expectantly.
Little Lori thought about it and nodded, "Yes, it's called the Ancient Rhyme." ”
"Really, there's a sale there?" Wu Meng quickly asked.
"I don't know. Little Lori shook her head and continued to read.
"......" Wu Meng still wanted to say something, but looking at the appearance of Xiao Lori, she gave up entanglement, after all, others are not obliged to answer you. "Thank you. ”
Little Lori was stunned for a moment, "You're welcome." ”
Wu Meng continued to read the article in his hand that had already been read. Compare the definitions to see if there are any discrepancies in your understanding. Seeing the teacher walking up to him, he hurriedly asked, "Teacher, I have a question." ”
"Excuse me. The teacher's tone was very kind.
"Where can I find the Ancient Rhyme Dictionary?"
"I have the Ancient Rhyme Dictionary in my Scripture Pavilion, but why do you want to find the Ancient Rhyme Classic?" the teacher smiled and looked at Wu Meng.
"Teacher, I don't know some ancient characters, and I wonder if I can find out the meaning of the words through the ancient rhyme dictionary. Wu Meng didn't say it, because learning was too slow like this. With so many pairs of eyes staring and saying such unobtrusive words, isn't it looking for death.
"If you don't know any words, you can ask me. The teacher nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, thank you, teacher, but sometimes when I see ancient characters I don't know, the teacher is no longer around, and I will inevitably feel a little anxious. So I wondered if I could find out the meaning of the ancient words at any time. Wu Meng politely refused, anyway, he knew where to find it, so he would look for it later.
When the teacher heard this, he nodded, and it was true, "I have a copy of the Ancient Texts and Rhymes, I will lend it to you first, and then return it to me when I go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion tomorrow to reproduce it." ”
"Teacher, no need, I'll just go to the Scripture Pavilion and reproduce it myself. "Wu Meng was overjoyed when he heard this, he could reproduce it, but even if he couldn't copy it, it would be the same to find a light brain scan after getting the book. It's just that the teacher wants to borrow me a dictionary, which is not okay.
"That's good. The teacher nodded, although the apprentice disciples who did not have a formal entry could only enter the first layer, and they could not reproduce the books, but for the apprentice disciples who did not know a few ancient characters, it was enough to be able to consult them. Moreover, it takes five spirit stones to reproduce the "Ancient Texts and Rhymes". It's more expensive than burning a first-class cultivation technique.
"Thank you, teacher!" Wu Meng said respectfully. He behaved fully throughout the whole process, and he was a good student who respected his teachers.
After class, Wu Meng left the academy and came to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion along the bluestone road. In front of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is a huge square, Wu Meng is almost as big as the square on the Shengxian Peak, and there is a high platform on the side of the square against the mountain, which is similar to the stage, but Wu Meng guesses that it is used to preach.
And the Pavilion of the Scriptures stands on the other side. The round tower-shaped building of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is counted upwards and has nine floors. The black tower looks a little vicissitudes. But it is magnificent and full of ancient charm.
Standing outside the door, Wu Meng looked inside and saw rows of bookshelves full of books. There are also a few tables in front of the bookshelves. It's just that no one seems to read. Wu Meng raised his feet and entered the Scripture Pavilion. The moment I stepped over the door. A white light flashed through the ID badge on her waist. Then she received a message.
It is the cabinet rule of the Zangjing Pavilion.
Wu Meng read it carefully, and it is roughly divided into three points, one is the authority, miscellaneous servants and trainee disciples can only read books on the first and second floors, among which the trainee disciples who have not participated in the introductory ceremony can only be on the first floor. The outer door can go up to three floors, the inner door, the deacon can go up to four floors, and the five floors and above can go up by cultivation.
The second is the fee, each disciple has an hour of free reading time every day, after which the fee is charged according to the level. Then there is a charge for reproducing books, which is based on the value of the book.
The third is the restriction, which stipulates what disciples are not allowed to do in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
After reading, Wu Meng went to look for books, and at present, she is a trainee disciple who has not participated in the introductory ceremony, and can only read books on the first floor, and cannot burn books. However, after looking at the price target of the book reproduction posted on the wall, Wu Meng decisively ignored the reproduction of the book.
Anyway, she has a human brain, so just let the housekeeper scan a copy later.
"With so many books, where do you start? Wu Meng stood in front of a bookshelf and glanced at it, but he didn't see any titles, why? Because although these books were placed vertically, they did not show the titles on the side. So, "Forget it, you can only find it one by one." Wu Meng reached out and took the top book.
"Xu Lin's poetry collection?" casually flipped through two pages, and put it back without interest, the next one, and then one after another. "Why is it not a mortal's work, it is a strange story in the immortal cultivation world. When will we be able to find the ancient texts and rhymes like this?"
"Hey, it would be nice to have a retrieval system. Wu Meng looked at a book published many years ago about the various major schools casually.
At this time, a voice suddenly reached Wu Meng's ears, "Senior Sister Wu Meng, why are you here?"
