"The printing effect is not bad."
On the streets of Huaiyuanfang, Li Ang flipped through the new issue of Neo-Confucianism journals and nodded.
There are many kinds of journals in Xuegong, among which the most popular journal "Neo-Confucianism" is actually a large series, with sub-journals on engineering, arithmetic, astronomy, architecture, etc.
These journals not only accept articles written by academic doctors and students, but also accept submissions from members of the Folk Neo-Confucian Society - as long as they are reviewed and approved by the journal, the articles can be published and widely read by people all over the world, and at the same time, they can also submit articles. The person earns a fee.
Given Li Ang's current status, all the content he writes is published in the main journal of Neo-Confucianism.
In order to print his "Anatomy of Poultry and Livestock" series in its entirety, the recent issues of "Neo-Confucianism" have been much thicker and the definition has been much higher.
"When all the common anatomy diagrams of poultry and livestock are published, we can consider the human ones."
Li Ang thought silently, "The most important foundation for developing medicine is understanding the human body.
When the general public gradually dispels the prejudice of associating human anatomy with magic, some real surgical procedures can be performed..."
In the past, due to difficulties in printing books, frequent wars, medical doctors' preoccupation with their broomsticks, and the chaos of demons, the development of medicine in the Central Plains has always been in a state of ups and downs.
In the "Emperor's Internal Classic·Lingshu·Gastrointestinal Chapter" during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States Period, the data of various organs of the human body are clearly recorded, such as "nine minutes long from lip to teeth, and two and a half inches wide mouth." From the back of the teeth to the epiglottis, it is three and a half inches deep and wide in width. The tongue weighs ten taels and is seven inches long... There is a ridge attached to the back of the small intestine, and the left loop is stacked around it. When it is injected into the ileum, it is attached to the umbilicus...]
These data cannot be obtained without extensive anatomical data.
"The evil gate of evil."
Li Ang shook his head, closed the magazine, and walked forward.
"Hit her, hit her!"
"Don't let her get away!"
A group of children wearing civilian clothes happily ran past, holding rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, mud and stones in their hands, chasing and throwing an unkempt young figure.
brush--
A child with a green nose accidentally smashed it, and the rotten egg in his hand flew towards Li Ang.
Li Ang raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his palm, released his mind power, and solidified the rotten egg in the air, slowly rotating it.
tread.
The chasing children all stopped and looked at the rotten egg suspended in the air in awe and timidity, as well as Li Ang standing behind the egg.
"what happened?"
Li Ang asked calmly. None of the group of Chang'an children, who were no more than ten years old at most, said a word. You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally ran away in unison.
"Quite clever."
Li Ang burst into laughter. It was indeed the best place under the emperor's feet. These little brats in Chang'an were much smarter than their peers in Zhenzhou. They knew not to mess with the monks, as well as the young monks holding Neo-Confucian journals in their hands.
"Are you okay?"
Li Ang turned to look at the unkempt young figure in front of him. His, or rather her, messy hair was still covered with eggshell fragments and mud.
Below the bangs is an ordinary and thin face.
"..."
The unknown little girl shook her head and raised her arm slightly, revealing a small bamboo flower basket hidden under her arm.
The orange flowers in the flower basket were well protected during the chase, but a few of them were hit by rotten eggs and emitted a stinky smell.
"How much does it cost? I bought it."
Li Ang smiled and handed the other party three coins at a discount of 50 yuan, picked out two flowers that he liked, and at the same time, using a concealment technique, he quietly placed a one-hundred-guan flying ticket at the bottom of the flower basket.
"..."
The little girl looked at the three 50-cent copper coins in her hand, shook her head, took out one of them, and handed it to Li Ang.
Li Ang shook his head and refused to accept it, so she handed it over again.
Li Ang still shook his head and refused to accept it, so she handed it over again.
After repeating this cycle, she was finally sure that Li Ang would not accept the extra money, so she bowed to him silently, turned around and ran away, disappearing around the corner of the street.
He must be a child from a poor family.
Li Ang looked at the other person's back and shook his head.
With a population of three million, Chang'an's ability to siphon the surrounding areas is too powerful. Every year, there are refugees who are forced to return to poverty or even live in other places due to land annexation.
Li Ang's ability is limited, he helps everyone he sees, that's all.
"Is this Mr. Li Xiaolang from the Academy?"
The owner of the food stall next to him hesitated to speak. Li Ang turned around and looked over, feeling that the other person seemed familiar, "You are..."
"The next step is Wang Xiaosi,"
The expression of the food stall owner became lively, "Li Xiaolangjun used to drink glutinous rice here when he was temporarily living in Huaidefang to prepare for the exam."
"oh oh."
Li Ang recalled that at this time last year, he and Chai Chai had just arrived in Chang'an and stayed in a hotel in Huaidefang to prepare for the exam. Sometimes Chai Chai fell asleep and Li Ang wanted to have a midnight snack, so he would go to a food stall near the West Market.
"How is shopkeeper Wang's business lately?"
In a nostalgic mood, Li Ang suggested buying some glutinous rice wine.
Wang Xiaosi, who was extremely excited, refused to accept the money and even gave Li Ang a bamboo food box. He exchanged pleasantries with Li Ang under the envious eyes of the surrounding food stall owners.
"Hey, Mr. Li Xiaolang can drink my glutinous rice wine. As the saying goes, a scholar will die for his confidant..."
Wang Xiaosi was searching for elegant words, and when he saw Li Ang placing the orange flowers on the bamboo food box, he suddenly hesitated.
"What's wrong?"
Li Ang noticed the expression on his face and asked casually.
"No, it's okay. It's just that the little girl who just sold Li Xiaolang Junhua... is unknown."
Wang Xiaosi said hesitantly.
The little girl's surname was Nie, and she lived in a thatched house in Xinghuafang. She had a brother who was born stupid and a father who was lame.
Old man Nie is an honest man who is not good at words. He makes a living by selling bamboo baskets, baskets and some small bamboo toys.
Because his son Nie Dalang was born stupid and smiled all the time, no matter how others beat him or scolded him, he would never get angry.
Old man Nie was afraid that he would be bullied at home or accidentally get lost, so he would take him with him when he went to Dongshi to set up a stall.
The youngest daughter of the family is also selling flowers picked every day on the streets of Dongshi.
Although the family is poor, they are still able to survive.
Wang Xiaosi said: "On the night of the Dragon Boat Festival, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl died in Dongshi. It is said that she was defiled and killed by Nie Dalang.
Now Nie Dalang has been imprisoned and is being held in Dali Temple. "
"A fool kills someone?"
Li Ang raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it a frame-up?"
"The human and physical evidence is conclusive. The Zhenfu Department used fine dogs to smell it. The traces... left on the deceased's body were left by Nie Dalang.
The fine dogs of the Zhenfu Division never go wrong. "
Wang Xiaosi vaguely said: "Their family is also evil. The son was born stupid, the wife died in childbirth when giving birth to a daughter, the husband fell off a bridge a few years ago and became lame, and nothing happened to the little daughter.
So everyone said that she was the lone star of the evil spirits. "
"Is that so?"
Li Ang nodded, looking at the direction where the little girl ran away, frowning slightly.
————
The evil star is actually a synonym for unlucky and pitiful.
Li Ang was walking on his way home. The Yu State was too big, and there were always places that the Yu State's court and academy could not take care of.
If defined by loose standards, those poor people living in remote state capitals can all be lone stars.
Tap tap tap.
He walked to Jinchengfang Residence, nodded and said hello to the palace guards guarding outside the residence, and stepped inside.
In the courtyard, Li Leling was still supervising Chai Chai's studies.
I don’t know if it’s because of Li Leling’s frequent feeding during this period, but I feel that Chai Chai’s face has become a little rounder, and her arms seem to have become plumper.
"Sunrise is back."
Li Leling put down the book and asked with a smile: "What do you want to eat for dinner? Lamb in a water basin or cold sophora leaves."
"Mutton. I just bought some fermented glutinous rice."
Li Ang put the food box containing glutinous rice on the table and watched Li Leling standing in the corridor and giving instructions to the royal chefs in the kitchen. During this time, Li Leling used the excuse of "better coaching Chai Chai's life and study" , invited a group of royal chefs to come over and cook for Li Ang's family.
At dinner, the three of them sat at the dining table and chatted while eating. Li Leling occasionally asked Chai Chai some test questions and today's study experience.
It just felt... weird, like a family of three.
Forget it, let's thank Li Leling properly after the Chai Chai Academy exam is over.
Li Ang shook his head and shook the messy thoughts out of his mind.
tread.
A Jinwu guard walked into the courtyard and whispered a few words to Li Leling.
"Prince Changxiang is visiting?"
Li Leling raised her eyebrows in surprise and looked at Li Ang.
