Today’s first update: Chapter 1022!
Some students asked: I don’t understand the setting of Qufu Academy’s Thousand-year Instant Thought Formation. Here’s a special explanation: When a person is concentrating on doing a certain job or studying, time will pass very fast. This kind of subjective Time flies. Here, through the formation of thousands of years of instant thought, it becomes an objectively existing reverse time lag. This is equivalent to the more serious you are, the greater the time difference caused by the formation, that is, the shorter the time in the outside world. ~

Compared with the Thousand-Character Classic, the difficulty of learning hundreds of surnames has been greatly reduced!
Not to mention the short number of words, the key point is that for some races, surnames are universal and are not as diverse as the human race. For example, the entire clan of the Moonless Demon Cat Clan has "Yue" as their surname!
In addition, with the knowledge of the Thousand-Character Classic in terms of character recognition, Xu Kun no longer needs to study character by character when looking through hundreds of surnames.
Except for a few rare words, you can basically tell which family it belongs to when you see certain words!
This is also the benefit of being proficient in the Thousand-Character script, because the characters of each clan have their own obvious characteristics, such as the characters of the dragon clan, which are various dragon patterns, most of which have the edge of dragon claws!
Although Xu Kun didn't know the pronunciation and meaning of some of the characters in "Hundred Family Surnames", it was just as he expected. If he really wanted to master the Thousand-Character Classic and have a unique understanding, he could only draw parallels and refer to other readings. Mr. Zaishu taught In the process, Xu Kun gradually became able to draw inferences from one instance to another!
For example, some characters resemble the common characters of various ethnic groups that he knows. Through careful consideration, Xu Kun can roughly figure out the meaning of these characters!
If Thousand Character Classic is a dictionary, then Hundred Family Surnames is a dictionary!
Reading is no longer a big problem. The biggest difficulty in learning "Hundred Family Surnames" is to understand the relationship between the surnames of various ethnic groups!
Just like the surnames Li, Yang, Murong, Yuwen, Tuoba, and Dugu of the Xianbei tribe of the Wolf Clan... Behind the surnames, there are specific origins, and a preliminary understanding of the relationship between these surnames!
This is the value of words. Not only do you need to recognize them, but you also need to know the story behind each word!
Compared with the boring process of learning "The Thousand Character Classic", when Mr. Shu explained "Hundred Family Surnames", there were obviously a lot more interesting things, especially when explaining the connection between surnames, it was more like telling a story!
Involuntarily, Xu Kun was also fascinated by the study. He wrote down all kinds of notes and connections one by one!
This kind of study that forgets sleep and food is very efficient. Even if Mr. Shu still maintains an efficient teaching speed, Xu Kun can keep up with him!
The upper limit of a person's knowledge depends on his IQ!
But the lower limit of a person's knowledge depends on a person's diligence and good study habits!
After the saint touched his head, Xu Kun was already enlightened. In terms of IQ, he was definitely the best among the best. But when he abandoned distracting thoughts and studied hard, the speed at which he acquired knowledge was simply embarrassing!
Diligence can make up for weakness, but it is a piece of jade!
You have finished learning "Hundred Family Surnames" without knowing it, and the review process is naturally indispensable. While deepening your memory, you can gain new insights!
Through tutoring, self-study, and reflection, coupled with Kong Xing's supplementary mental and physical strength, Xu Kun transformed into a ruthless learning machine!
Everything is difficult at the beginning. When Xu Kun faced the first difficulty of "The Thousand-Character Classic", he did not give up. After laying a solid foundation, his learning process was not only easy, but also step-by-step. Stay steady!
The third "Three Character Classic" is another completely different book from the "Three Character Classic" in my memory!
The opening chapter is: At the beginning of man, the clear sky appeared; when all races arrived, the blue star changed; darkness began, and the world was in chaos; after a hundred years of misfortune, Kunlun turned; only when there is blue, can we live in peace...
Biting half of the apricot, Xu Kun was slightly absent-minded. After reading it quickly, he murmured: "This Three-Character Sutra records everything that happened in the thousand years since Haotian Tower came to Blue Star?"
Mr. Shu also responded: "To be precise, it is the development of the human race for a thousand years, as well as some major events related to the human race!"
Xu Kun nodded silently, but this time, Mr. Shu did not rush to teach, but let Xu Kun read it by himself first!
In the form of three characters, the Three Character Classic records everything that happened in the past thousands of years, which fully embodies what small words mean. It is possible that these three short words represent a bitter past event!
There are some things that not only Xu Kun, but basically everyone in the human race knows, but there are also some things that Xu Kun has never heard of or seen. When he reads certain three-character sentences, it can inspire Xu Kun and unlock his past. some confusion.
For example, a few sentences in the middle.
"Win the Qin family, the beginning of the annexation; Fen the sixth generation, the king of Qin; sweep Liuhe, unify the eight wastelands; once the emperor, all the clans are shocked; conspiracy arises, the Xuanwu seal; pass the second generation, the Chu-Han struggle..."
Xu Kun put down the Three-Character Sutra and said with deep eyes: "This section records the forgotten master of the era three hundred years ago, who is also the king Ying Zheng in Bai Qi's mouth..."
"Now it seems that the so-called traitors are just a joke!"
"The Xuanwu Seal... the highest level of the Xuanwu Seal of the Black Turtle Clan, I, the majestic master of the human race's era, was actually given such a slave seal!"
Xu Kun's hands slowly clenched, his murderous intent revealed!
From the brief words, one can fully imagine the fear of the Qin Emperor Yingzheng from all the tribes. This Lord of the Era had just entered the imperial realm and aroused the fear of all the tribes, forcing the Xuangui Clan to intervene forcibly!
"Looking at it this way, the missing Lord of the Era in our human race should still be alive, but he is limited by the Xuanwu Seal and can only encourage others. I don't know what kind of existence can plant the Xuanwu Seal for him... maybe It is the ancestor of the Xuangui Clan who is revered as the God of Xuanming!"
Phew~
Xu Kun breathed a sigh of relief and continued to read the Three Character Classic. Since it was all written in Chinese characters, memorizing this book with only a few thousand words was a piece of cake!
"Mr. Shu, I have finished reading it for the first time. Please help me answer my questions!"
"good!"
After being slapped twice by Mr. Shu at the beginning, Xu Kun has never been beaten again, and the communication between the two parties has remained in a good environment of respect between teachers and friends!
Like Bai Jia Xing, the explanation of the Three Character Classic mainly involves roughly telling the stories behind these words. This time, Xu Kun listened especially carefully, because this was an excellent way for him to understand the history of the human race for nearly a thousand years!
In the gradual learning process, Xu Kun no longer had the prejudice and eagerness to learn that he had at the beginning!
My mind has been completely settled!
Although knowledge cannot directly improve combat power, when your knowledge reserve reaches a certain level, everything in the world will have no secrets for you!
These ten enlightenment books with F-level trial scores alone gave Xu Kun a great shock!
Thinking that there are more than 9,000 more profound books waiting for him to read, his heart becomes extremely hot!
Reading can also reveal a broad road and a saint!
If you feel something is wrong, it only proves that you haven’t read enough or deeply enough!
Except for the Thousand-Character Essay at the beginning, Xu Kun did not spend too much time on the following enlightenment books, and his concentration was even higher. It was not that he was forced to study seriously, but that Xu Kun was already immersed in knowledge. In the ocean, I can’t extricate myself!
Almost every time he finished reading a book, Xu Kun felt that his vision had made great progress!
Book after book, Xu Kun was completely tireless.
Li Yian had been reading "Jin Ping Mei" with great interest until he picked it up, which was recorded as an e-book on the tablet!
When he picked it up and looked at it, Xu Kun's face turned red instantly.
"This...Mr. Shu, is this considered enlightenment reading?" Xu Kun pretended to be serious.
"Why doesn't it count?"
"But... what child can bear this?" Xu Kun turned to a page and asked, pointing to the explicit illustrations on it.
"Haha, what a foolish man sees!"
"If you read this book with a secular perspective, then this book is a history of obscenity. Reading "The Plum in the Golden Ping" makes you a Bodhisattva with a heart of compassion, a gentleman with a heart of fear, and a villain with a heart of joy. Those who take effect with their Dharma mind are just like beasts.”
"This is a book that shows the various situations in the world and the sophistication of human nature. It shows the warmth and warmth of human nature through desire, and the impermanence of the world. It can deeply analyze society and reveal the ugliness of human nature!"
"People cannot live in imagination, they need to experience firsthand what the general public thinks!"
"The people can do it, follow it, but they can't do it, know it!"
"The general public cannot look at the whole world like those in power. They are more concerned about their own interests. As a king, you must proceed from reality and guide the common people to move forward, instead of blindly condescending and getting away from the bottom!"
(PS: The people can be made to follow it, but they cannot be made to know it. It comes from the Taibo chapter of the eighth chapter of the Analects of Confucius. It generally does not appear in textbooks because it has been understood as a "policy of obscuring the people" in the past, but if you read it in a set sentence , it will have the completely opposite meaning. I personally prefer this version~)
"And this book allows you to use the perspective of a bystander to look at some people and things that seem absurd and unruly, but are actually portrayals of reality!"
After being taught like this by Mr. Shu, Xu Kun also put away his contempt.
Officially flipping through the last book among the ten enlightenment books in the first stage, Xu Kun's face darkened again and again as he read it sentence by sentence and chapter by chapter. Until he finished reading, he felt a sigh of depression accumulating in his chest. !
A feeling of despair came over me!
Xu Kun couldn't help but ask himself, isn't he one of these countless living beings?
I also have desires, and I can do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, or I can be kind-hearted and make it my lifelong ideal to worry about the world first!
People are inherently contradictory!
There are never absolutely good people or absolutely bad people!
There is evil among good, and good among evil. "Jin Ping Mei" is not like a book, but like a mirror, reflecting people's hearts!
Even Xu Kun couldn't come back to his senses for a long time!
Mr. Shu did not disturb him, but allowed Xu Kun to be immersed in the world in the book and couldn't extricate himself!
And what is Xu Kun thinking about at this moment?
He was thinking that as a fledgling, he had brought benefits again and again to the human race, but the prejudices in people's hearts were like a big mountain. When Xu Kun made contributions to the human race, he would attract the cheers of encouragement from all the mountains!
And when he committed a "wrong thing", countless people began to criticize him verbally and completely, completely ignoring the contributions he made in the past!
Not just ordinary people, even the top leaders of the human race are like this!
Such a race, such a world, what can I do to change it?
Xu Kun fell into endless self-doubt, as if falling into an abyss, swallowing up his body and soul!
The familiar Mr. Shu remained silent and allowed Xu Kun's thoughts to sink!
For everyone who comes to Qufu Academy, as Mr. Shu said before, the influence of Jin Ping Mei is different based on different people's temperaments!
Ordinary people will not have too many thoughts after reading it. On the contrary, the smarter the person, the more their minds will be affected by the content in the book!
Even more extreme, you may become obsessed with it!
And Xu Kun meets all the requirements for an extreme person!
In this situation where he could only help himself, a voice like the sound of nature pulled Xu Kun back.
"Hey, stinky brother, I can't tell, you still like this position?"
