Chapter 14 However

In the next few days, Lu Changsheng devoted himself to learning.

His talent for reading and recognizing characters has reached the level of genius, and he learns very quickly.

Almost every day, he would understand new characters thoroughly.

He also learned a few characters he had never recognized before.

"If you recognize more characters, you will have some capital to survive in the capital city!"

He privately warned the other three to study and recognize characters seriously.

There was also a sense of urgency in his heart.

Because, he was running out of money!

"Heihou, lend me 10 copper coins first!"

That day, Lu Changsheng found Wang Heihou.

"Here!" Wang Heihou did not hesitate.

This made Lu Changsheng feel a little grateful.

He bought two buns, one on his body to deal with accidents, and the other in his hand to eat.

Just after finishing the meal, I suddenly saw a middle-aged man walking into the room for recognizing characters with a serious face.

"The teacher asked about you today, and I answered truthfully, but the teacher's reaction was not very good!"

The middle-aged man shook his head and said to the people below.

"Well, let's start the day after tomorrow. Whether it can be successful depends on your own talent!"

······

"Changsheng! How can it be so fast! We feel like we haven't learned anything!"

"Yes!"

During the afternoon meal, several people sat in the yard.

Wang Heihou, Niu Dazhuang, and Li Nangua looked anxious.

"It should be that the teacher has some intention!"

Lu Changsheng did not tell the truth.

The three were too young, especially Wang Heihou, who was more erratic. If he told him his guess, it might be spread.

Lu Changsheng has seen many things that can cause trouble from the mouth.

In this case, the problem is either with the Master or with Zhao Deshui.

No matter which possibility it is, it cannot be solved at present.

He took a wooden stick and wrote on the ground as usual.

"Study hard, maybe one day, you can get the Master's favor!"

Wang Heihou and the other two could only memorize hard.

Lu Changsheng recalled the words taught by the "Master and Students" during the day, picked out more than ten repeated words, and then carefully memorized them.

Practice makes perfect!

"There is no specific time for reading and recognizing characters on this light screen panel. I guess it is related to the fact that reading and recognizing characters is too extensive!"

However——

"It seems something is wrong. Fishing should also be considered a specific skill, but there is no specific time!"

"Is there something I don't know?"

Lu Changsheng looked at it for a while, and then concentrated on practicing characters.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

It was only a few days since everyone arrived at Heishan Mansion. For this strange place, it can be said that they were a little awed and fearful.

Just like Zhao Liang, who was a little bully in the village, but when he came here, he also suppressed his nature.

At night, they should have gone to sleep, but many children went to uninhabited places, used wooden sticks as pens, and the ground as paper, and wrote with difficulty.

"It's so hard for poor people to climb up!"

Under the faint moonlight, the shadows of people were dancing, like ghosts in hell, heading towards the light. 

Lu Changsheng sat on the ground, looking at the group of young men and women around him who looked haggard due to lack of sleep, and felt a little emotional. 

There was a sound of footsteps.

'Master Student' and the often missing Liang Hu entered the house one after another.

"Reading is about the word 'reason', so if you fail the test, there is no need to get angry!"

'Master Student' coughed dryly, took out a yellowed book and a ruler, and began to test them one by one.

"What is this word?"

"Year!"

"Wrong! What about this one!"

"Get lost!"

"What does it mean?"

"Meaning…meaning…"

The boy racked his brains, but unfortunately, the word that he had memorized disappeared as if out of thin air. The next moment, his face turned pale and he was sweating profusely.

"No talent for reading! Leave later!"

"Bang!" The boy's knees softened and he knelt on the ground, "Sir——"

"Fuck bitch! What are you doing?"

A pair of hands beside him grabbed the boy's shoulders, lifted him up, and walked out. After a while, a burst of crying and wailing came from outside.

Liang Hu walked in and sneered, "Studying is for the upper class. If you can learn it by kneeling, it's too easy!"

"If anyone does this kind of trick again, don't blame me for being rude!"

He grinned and showed a fierce look, which frightened a group of people.

Even the 'teacher's student' beside him was the same.

"Keep going!"

······

"But!"

"But!"

"But!"

······

The 'teacher's student' cheered up and shuttled among the crowd.

Suddenly, he arrived in front of Lu Changsheng.

"What is this word?"

"Ghost!"

"What does it mean?"

"People are ghosts, people who are not upright are ghosts, people who are clever are ghosts!"

"No——"

The word "Guo" in the mouth of 'Master Student' could not be said.

Because, this answer is not wrong.

He was a little surprised in his heart, but he didn't think much about it, just thought it was a coincidence.

Recognizing words is mostly about memory, and you can memorize it in three or five days.

But in the past few days, he has written no less than two hundred different words, which is not something that ordinary people can memorize.

So, he pointed to other words.

However, after a moment, everyone was silent.

There was a trace of shock and hesitation on the face of 'Master Student'.

Obviously, he didn't expect that someone here would learn to this level.

After thinking for a while, he wrote a new word on the wooden board with a pen.

But Lu Changsheng didn't know this word.

"But!"

All the children showed despair on their faces.

"Your talent is just a little bit short, what a pity!"

'Master and Student' said with regret.

Now, everyone knows that Lu Changsheng is a template close to the standard.

If they can't even pass this, they naturally can't pass it either.

Sure enough, until the last person, no one could pass this test.

"Pack up and get out tomorrow!"

Liang Hu said impatiently.

······

The chill of early winter came.

Lu Changsheng tightened the cotton-padded jacket his mother knitted for him, and his body seemed to be warmer.

"Changsheng, why don't we go back? I feel it's particularly cold this year!" Wang Heihou said, rubbing his nose.

"If we go back now and encounter robbers, we'll all be doomed!"

"The robbers won't kill people!" Wang Heihou thought of the majestic square-faced man, and felt a little envious and admiring.

Lu Changsheng said helplessly: "Don't be deceived by that group of bandits and think that all bandits are like this!"

"Yes, Heihou, I often hear my mother say that bandits drink human blood and eat human flesh!"

Niu Dazhuang said.

Wang Heihou suddenly felt a little scared, and then said with some annoyance: "Then what can we do if we stay here?"

"Don't worry! Wait a little longer!"

Lu Changsheng said.

"At this point in time, he should probably be dealing with his tail!"

"What tail?" Wang Heihou and the other two looked at Lu Changsheng in confusion.

Lu Changsheng just smiled.

He thought to himself: You three should grow up quickly, so that I don't have to keep everything in suspense.
