Song Xuan has been busy making plows these days, so he doesn't have time to teach these little kids. The last lecture was five days ago.
Seeing that Song Xuan had been in seclusion, these children were a little wary at first. After all, the envoy had done this kind of thing before, and took advantage of them to relax to kill them. However, after two days of observation, they saw that Song Xuan was really busy. There was no time to estimate them, and most of the children also relaxed.
Otherwise, Shipi wouldn't be so bold in hunting birds outside. When he went to find Song Xuan, he actually wanted to test it out. He didn't expect that what he was worried about would become a reality so quickly.
Although Shui Shi was not naughty during lectures, it was obvious that he had gotten carried away with playing these past few days. After tracing the stone for a long time, he finally wrote the word "水".
"Go down, go back and practice a hundred times, and you will be the one to write tomorrow!"
"Yes, God's Envoy!"
This punishment was already considered an amnesty for Shui Shi. He could finish writing it a hundred times in just a short time. It was already a huge honor for him not to criticize him in front of everyone.
Although Song Xuan has similar requirements for these children and can basically be said to treat them equally, after all, as a latecomer, Shuiyun will take the initiative to give more weight to those who belong to Heishui. The same is true for children. If he knows that Shui Shi has not written it out If so, you will definitely not be able to escape after a beating.
When Jianshui walked back dejectedly, Shipi was a little gloating about his misfortune. He lowered his head and turned to Shuishi and said mockingly:
"You can't write these two words?"
To be honest, these two words are not really difficult. After all, they are composed of the surnames of two tribes, and they are relatively simple to write. However, although Shui Shi failed to write them, given that his usual performance is pretty good, Song Xuan Just let him go.
Everyone else lowered their heads and remained motionless. Shipi's movements became more obvious at this time. Song Xuan also spotted Shipi making small movements at a glance among the crowd:
"Shippi!"
"Why!"
Although he was called by name, his reaction was still very quick, but as soon as he was about to stand up, his face fell. This was obviously because his brain could not keep up with the rhythm of his body.
Seeing Song Xuan preparing to go out, Shipi kept praying, hoping to write a word he could write, but obviously Song Xuan was not as simple as he thought.
"What do you think eighteen plus six equals?"
Arithmetic is not used much in the tribe, and these children use it even less. Most of their exposure is to addition and subtraction within ten. Although Song Xuan has taught two-digit numbers, obviously not many people remember it. Naturally, Shipi is not among this group.
Hearing Song Xuan ask him an arithmetic problem, Shipi's eyesight went dark. He quickly put his hands in front of him, but as he counted, he found that his fingers didn't seem to be enough, and his feet were placed inside his shoes. He thought in a hurry He took off his shoes, but he almost fell down without taking them off.
Seeing this, Song Xuan knew that Shipi definitely didn't know how to do it. When he first taught the class, he didn't learn it very well. He hadn't used it for such a long time, and he probably had forgotten all about it.
But since I saw him laughing at other companions, I still had to scare the monkeys a little bit, especially since the target of the ridicule was the people of Blackwater.
"Just don't take it off!"
"Okay, God Envoy, then I will write it a hundred times when I go back!"
When the divine envoy asked him to stop, Shipi thought that just like Shuishi, he could just go back and copy it a hundred times, and he even started to answer it.
Song Xuan originally had the same idea and just criticized him a little, but seeing that he seemed to be somewhat satisfied with the result, he instantly changed his approach:
"You don't have to copy it."
"Okay, angel!"
"Tomorrow, the two figures will ask random questions. If they can't answer the questions, they will be punished together. Okay, that's it!"
The smile that had just appeared on Shipi's face suddenly solidified on his face. This is much harder than copying it a hundred times and asking again tomorrow. He can barely break away from mental arithmetic within ten. The difficulty of these two digits is But it suddenly improved a lot.
However, since Song Xuan had already made a decision, he had no choice but to make it again with a grimace, and then looked at Song Xuan with an extremely resentful look, hoping that the divine envoy would change his mind.
Song Xuan just pretended not to see it. Although Shipi usually didn't procrastinate in his work, he was indeed a little behind in reading knowledge. Song Xuan didn't expect them to learn much, but it could be used in the tribe. You still need to be proficient in using these things. Song Xuan cannot just remember these things. As the tribe gets bigger and bigger, there are not many chores to deal with, and Song Xuan may not be able to handle it.
"Okay, everyone, watch out. Today I will teach you how to write 'god'!"
Today's teaching conditions are much better than last year. Last year, I was still writing and drawing on the sand. This year, they are equipped with ceramic boards. The ceramic boards were specially made by Song Xuan. They are not very big. Ten centimeters long and twenty centimeters wide, about the same size as ordinary white paper.
Everyone takes a pinker stone and can write the words clearly on it. After writing, it is easy to deal with it. Just take it outside and wash it with water. If you are in a hurry, wipe it dry and put it next to the fire. It dries in a while, and both sides are almost the same, basically enough to meet the needs of a class.
The content of Song Xuan's lectures each time is not too much, only five or six words. If it is too much, the children may not be able to remember it. On the contrary, it is better to have a smaller number to make it easier for everyone to learn.
This is the first time for children like Heishui to come into contact, and their progress is definitely not as good as Teng She's, so Song Xun will also deliberately take care of them. Most of them are simpler words, and occasionally one or two are slightly more difficult. Specially taught to the children of Teng She.
If everything is simple, it will basically not be too difficult for them, and it will quickly become a memory, so Song Xuan will also pay attention to this aspect when asking questions.
Even though there aren't many things going on in the tribe now, we can't let these children be too idle. If we don't wind them up, they will really go crazy playing.
Although Song Xuan didn't mention what happened in class today, the fact that Shui Shi didn't answer the question was still known by the level.
After dinner, Shui Yun found Shui Shi practicing calligraphy beside him:
"Didn't you answer the God's envoy's question today?"
Looking at the small stick of wood in Shui Yun's hand, Shui Shi knew that he probably couldn't hide. He didn't think of blaming others for informing him. He could only blame himself for not being able to remember such two simple words.
"Hmm~"
"What did I tell you? God's envoy taught me, remember!"
"Hands out!"
Seeing that the leader was angry, Shui Shi didn't dare to talk back at all, and raised his hands above his head very obediently.
Seeing that Shui Yun was really going to take action, Song Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and said:
"Shuiyun, don't fight, don't fight. We've just started learning, so take your time!"
Since Song Xuan interceded for him, Shuiyun got off the donkey along the slope and put away the small wooden stick in his hand:
"The envoys have said it for you, forget it, we won't do it tomorrow, let's fight together!"
Listening to Shui Yun's somewhat horrific expression, Song Xuan also slapped him on the forehead.
Although the meaning was understandable, it was too unsmooth. Considering that they had only been here for half a year, it was not bad that they could say this without systematic study. But after thinking about it, Song Xuan still said:
"You should follow suit, or if you can't, let the children call you!"
Seeing Song Xuan suddenly pointing the finger at him, Shuiyun suddenly felt embarrassed. He usually spent most of his time hunting outside. Although he led a small team alone, he didn't spend much time communicating, even with Shi. Force them together. And as a latecomer, I focus more on listening.
Seeing that Song Xuan had found his own problem at this time, he also made up his mind that he must be as smooth as others said.
As for those who originally belonged to the Tengshe tribe, although most of them don't know a few characters, communication has long been no problem. They are still better in this regard. What they need to learn now is arithmetic. Most adults It's even worse than Shipi's level, and some people can't even figure it out.
Then Song Xuan came to the prisoners in the corner. Although they were gathered in the corner, they did most of the work. They did the work that required a long time or was more arduous. In winter, The errands are also left to them.
"Angel of God!"
Seeing Song Xuan coming over, all the prisoners stood up one after another. Although Song Xuan treated them quite well, the class between the two parties was still very clear. Even Song Xuan could only try his best to let them use it materially. It's too bad, and it's not easy to change other ideas in a short time.
And there seems to be no need for the prisoners to change. The proper class must still exist. Although Song Xuan is not a ruthless person, he is definitely not a holy mother. These people who belong to the Wuyu tribe have participated in In the war of aggression against the Soaring Snakes, it was already a very kind thing to allow them to live a strong life.
But as long as they sincerely want to integrate into Tengshe, Tengshe will not set too many barriers for them. As long as the conditions are sufficient or Tengche has relevant needs, Song Xuan will accept a few people from time to time.
There are now more than thirty prisoners, and there are only a dozen in this place. Although the seats of the other people are not very good, they don't have to stay in the corner. These people are naturally because they have made contributions in a certain place. , and then joined Soaring Snake.
The prisoners naturally have to do more work than the average person, but even so, it is not too difficult for them. Most of the things have to be done according to the normal rhythm and can be completed in one day, and there can also be some Take plenty of time to rest.
Most of the work these people do does not involve the more important things of the Soaring Snake tribe, so they are mainly responsible for grinding weapons. Stone axes and stone spears are in great demand among Soaring Snakes, and they will suffer losses every time they go out. In most cases It can't be used anymore. After all, it is made of stone. Once it is broken, it will be difficult to polish it into something smooth.
