This is a restaurant called Wuweizhai. The store is not very big, just a three-story building, but it is very lively inside. Many people in short clothes are sitting in the store drinking and eating. The waiters are in the store. He ran around and put food and wine on each table. The diners in the hotel spoke very loudly. From time to time, they heard laughter or curses. It was very lively.
As soon as Zhao Hai entered the store, there was a sudden silence in the store. Everyone looked at him blankly. For a moment, the first floor of Wuweizhai reached the point where you could hear a needle drop.
When Zhao Hai saw those people eating, he didn't feel anything strange about their reactions, because his figure was displayed there. With a figure of 2.5 meters, anyone would feel... Very surprised, coupled with Zhao Hai's majestic muscles, it will definitely make people even more surprised.
Zhao Hai stood there, glanced at those people, and didn't care. Instead, he walked to the counter. Standing at the counter was a shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was not tall and was wearing a scribe's uniform. On his head The soul object is an abacus.
Zhao Hai knew that this person could be regarded as a scribe in calculation, but he could only be regarded as a scribe, and his talent was not very good. They could practice literary skills, but it would be difficult for them to achieve high achievements.
Zhao Hai raised his fist at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, there is still room available."
The shopkeeper quickly came back to his senses. He took a look at the soul object on Zhao Hai's head. The soul object on Zhao Hai's head had also recovered now. It was still just a piece of grass. However, the shopkeeper did not show any concern because of Zhao Hai. Hai looked down upon him even though he was just a planter of grass-planting souls, but he quickly said: "Yes, sir, please come with me." Zhao Hai nodded and followed the shopkeeper to a corner on the first floor, where there was a A small table, which is not big and can only seat four people at most, is empty now.
The shopkeeper pointed to the small table and said, "I'm really sorry, sir. Because I'm busy right now, there's only one table left. If you don't mind, sir, please sit here."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "No defense." After saying that, he sat down. He said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, please bring four of your specialty dishes, half a catty of wine and four steamed buns on top." The shopkeeper responded and immediately waved for a waiter. He ordered.
When the guy left, the shopkeeper still didn't leave. Instead, he said to Zhao Hai: "Sir, this is your first time coming to this tide watching city. I have never seen you before."
Zhao Hai glanced at the shopkeeper, smiled slightly and said: "The shopkeeper has really sharp eyes. It is indeed the first time for me to come here. To be precise, it is the first time for me to come to Wenji Continent. I am a person from Binghun Continent. I just got here today. It’s getting dark, I can’t go into the city anymore, and I feel hungry again, so I came here to find something to eat.”
When the shopkeeper heard what Zhao Hai said, his eyes couldn't help but light up and said: "Sir, you are actually from the Soldier Soul Continent? I really didn't expect it. I remember that here in Wenji Continent, there has been no Soldier Soul for a long time. People from the mainland have arrived.”
Zhao Hai said with a smile: "Mr. Geng, I am indeed from Binghun Continent. I heard from the elders at home that there are many differences between Wenji Continent and Binghun Continent. Come and see it." experience."
The shopkeeper nodded and said: "I see, since Mr. is from the Soldier Soul Continent, this meal can be regarded as a treat here. But I don't know that before Mr. came to the Wenji Continent, the elders in the family also followed Mr. Did you tell me about the rules here in Wenji Continent?”
Zhao Hai was stunned for a moment, then looked at the shopkeeper with some confusion and said: "I wonder what rules the shopkeeper is talking about? But about the identity tag?"
The shopkeeper immediately said: "It's about the ID tag. I wonder if sir, has he got the ID tag?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said: "Isn't that true? I just arrived at the beach because the lights were bright here. So I walked over. It's dark now and I can't enter the city, so I can only wait until tomorrow to get the identity card." "
When the shopkeeper heard what Zhao Hai said, he immediately said: "So, sir, you don't have a place to live yet? There are several upper rooms behind the shop. If you don't mind, sir, please sit here in the shop today. Mr. I am a student of the calligraphy college in the city. Tomorrow, I can go to the calligraphy college ahead of the other students to apply for an identity card. What do you think, sir?"
Zhao Hai glanced at the shopkeeper, smiled slightly and said: "Oh? Isn't that too troublesome for the shopkeeper? Is there anything else I can say about where to get this identity tag?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "That's not true. No matter which academy you get the identity card from, sir, you can use it to walk on the Civil Continent. And because you are from the Soldier Soul Continent, sir, I will give it to you." The identity tags you get will be different from the ones we use. No one will embarrass you sir because of this. It’s just that although I am a student of Shuwen Academy, my talent has never been good, so I am not taken seriously in the academy. And the gentleman comes from the Soldier Soul Continent, because no one has come from the Soldier Soul Continent for a long time, so this matter will definitely attract the attention of the academy, and I will introduce the gentleman to the academy. That will be more or less It can be regarded as a little bit of credit for me. Maybe the academy will reward me for turning it over, so I am so attentive. If you don't agree, I will never force you to keep me."
Zhao Hai was stunned. He really didn't expect that the shopkeeper would say such a thing. He originally thought that the shopkeeper had some agenda. But now when he heard what the shopkeeper said, Zhao Hai didn't feel anything at all. It's very normal. No matter which academy he goes to register for, his identity will be the same.
When he thought of this, Zhao Hai immediately turned to the shopkeeper and said: "I see, how can I refuse the shopkeeper's kindness? Well, I will stay here today, and I will trouble the shopkeeper tomorrow."
When the shopkeeper heard what Zhao Hai said, his face was full of ecstasy, and he immediately said: "Thank you sir, thank you sir, all your expenses in the shop are free of charge. Sir, please use it slowly. I will wait until you have finished your meal." , I’m going to go to the room to rest before the students, and I will make sure to satisfy you.” After saying that, he gave Zhao Hai a fist, turned around and left.
After a while, the waiter brought Zhao Hai four side dishes, a pot of old wine, and four steamed buns, and Zhao Hai also enjoyed a meal. Soon after the meal was finished, the shopkeeper came over and led Zhao Hai to the backyard of Wuweizhai.
While Zhao Hai was eating, all the people eating in the store were paying attention to Zhao Hai. Many people heard the previous conversation between Zhao Hai and the shopkeeper. They knew that Zhao Hai came from the Soldier Soul Continent and were very curious. That's why he paid so much attention to Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai didn't care.
He followed the shopkeeper to the backyard of Wuweizhai. The backyard of Wuweizhai was quite large, with many rooms, but some of them had lights on. Apparently someone was already living inside.
The shopkeeper led Zhao Hai to a small courtyard, gently opened the door and walked in. The courtyard was not very big, with only one row of rooms. There were no lights in the rooms. The shopkeeper took out the torch and lit the room. There was an oil lamp in the room, and then he put the lampshade on, and then said to Zhao Hai: "Sir, please sit down and rest for a moment. I will have someone bring you bath water and tea in a while. I don't know, Mr. Any other instructions?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said: "No, thank you shopkeeper, this is already very good."
The shopkeeper clasped his fist at Zhao Hai and said, "I won't disturb my husband's rest. I think he is also very tired during this journey. Please, sir." After that, he slowly left the room.
Zhao Hai looked at the small courtyard. This small courtyard was obviously the best room in Wuweizhai. This small courtyard could accommodate a total of about twenty people. It was obviously prepared for a family. A person like him would occupy one room. Small courtyard. It's really not much.
The location where he is now is the living room of this small courtyard. This living room is not very big and can only accommodate more than ten people. A set of sofas, a small coffee table, and several tables of green plants are placed in the four corners of the room, making the whole look very warm.
On the left hand side of the living room is the bedroom with a table in it. A book desk was placed against the wall, and a chair was placed beside the desk.
On the right side of the living room, there is a study room. What Zhao Hai did not expect was that there were many books in the study room. There was a large desk in the study desk. On this desk, there were pens, ink, paper, and inkstones. Make it available to people at any time.
When Zhao Hai saw this arrangement, he nodded slightly. This store was really thoughtful. It even had a study room with books inside. It was really nice.
Zhao Hai didn't know that here in the Wenji Continent, the larger hotels are all arranged like this. In the hotel rooms, there is usually a large or small study room. If there is no study room, people will think that Your store is not upscale enough.
Zhao Hai walked into the study room and looked at the books on the bookshelf in the study room. The books on the bookshelf were all very ordinary books. Many of them had been read by Zhao Hai, and there were some that Zhao Hai had not read.
Zhao Hai knew after looking at these books that the people here in the Wenji Continent were much better at studying classics than those in the Soldier Soul Continent. Although there were some books about classics in the Soldier Soul Continent, those Books are not paid much attention to, and are mostly studied by some literati. Although the status of literati in the Soldier Soul Continent is higher than that of ordinary material souls, there is no way to compare with those who come from the profession, so relatively speaking, There are much fewer books on this kind of scriptures, especially the annotations on some scriptures, which are even rarer.
Here in the Literary Continent, there seem to be a lot of these books, and some scriptures have even more annotations. Some classic scriptures have many annotations. The annotations by different people and at different times surprised Zhao Hai. .
Zhao Hai took out an annotation from "Shang Shu" and read it carefully. Such annotations could not be found in the Soldier Soul Continent. Zhao Hai was very curious as to how the people here explained this. Of the ministers.
When Zhao Hai saw the contents of this annotation, he was also surprised. This annotation not only explained some of that person's understanding of Shangshu, but also had a vague artistic conception of pursuing Tao in it. Through the text, Pursuing the Tao is definitely not something that ordinary people can write. The person who can write this book must be a master.
This aroused Zhao Hai's interest. Zhao Hai took the book and read it carefully. He had just read two pages when he heard a knock on the door, and then a voice said: " Sir, the younger one is here to bring you some water."
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: "Come in." The man outside the door responded and walked in. Only then did Zhao Hai realize that there was not one person coming from the door, but three. The first one was holding a The second man is holding two wooden barrels, both of which are filled with hot water. The second person is also holding two wooden barrels, and the barrels are filled with cold water.
The third man held a large kettle in his hand, which was no smaller than a wooden bucket. In his other hand, he held a dark object, and he didn't know what it was for.
The three of them ducked towards Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice: "Sir, we are here to deliver water to you."
Zhao Hai nodded, and the two people walking in front walked to a room next to them, and poured the two buckets of hot water into a large wooden bucket in the room. The two wooden buckets filled with hot water were very large. , two buckets of water were poured in, and the big wooden bucket was almost full. Another person picked up a bucket of cold water, poured it into the big wooden bucket, and finally felt the water temperature in his hand, and then put the bucket of cold water down.
Another waiter with a big kettle entered the living room, put the copper kettle on the ground, and then put the black thing on the ground. Then he blew under the black thing, and then he blew on it. The dark thing immediately caught fire. It turned out to be a charcoal stove.
Then the waiter first filled the tea stove with water, then put the big copper pot on the charcoal stove and kept the fire on. Then another waiter took the wooden bucket into the living room, and the wooden bucket There is a lid on it, and it contains cold water.
Zhao Hai knew what was going on as soon as he saw it. This was the water left for him to drink. After the waiters prepared the things, they turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Sir, the bath water has been mixed. , tea has been made, may I ask if you have any other instructions?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said: "No, you can go down." The three guys responded, saluted Zhao Hai, turned around and left.
Zhao Hai watched a few people leave, smiled slightly, walked to the bathhouse, took a good bath in the big wooden bucket, and then returned to the living room, sitting in the living room, drinking tea and reading a book.
To be honest, the content of this book really attracted Zhao Hai, because the writing was really good, and it clearly stated the person's understanding of Tao. This is the first time Zhao Hai has written this book since he arrived in the soul world. This is the first time I have seen someone understand Tao so clearly. Although these understandings are still very immature in Zhao Hai's eyes, the shadow of Tao can already be seen.
After reading those Shangshu annotations, Zhao Hai found another Shangshu annotation. The annotations written by these two people were not in the same period, and their annotations were also different, but the annotations were equally wonderful. It was an eye-opener for Zhao Hai. He really didn't expect that here in Wenji Continent, scribes had reached such a height, which was really rare. Moreover, Zhao Hai knew that the books placed in this study must be very common in the world. Advanced books would not be placed here. If such books have reached this level, then the books in the academy will reach this level. What degree? Zhao Hai was really looking forward to it. (To be continued.)
