As soon as I stepped into Baisha Academy, the scenery in front of me changed, as if I was in another world entirely.
All he saw was that he was in an open square. In front of him was a middle-aged Confucian scholar wearing a Confucian shirt. He had a strong scholarly aura, and he could feel the flow of literary energy on his body. His face was unsmiling and he was solemn. After people saw it, they couldn't help but straighten their minds and didn't dare to slack off at all.
Looking around, there was a student wearing a scholar's robe standing there.
Even his own clothes turned into a white robe. Once he put on this scholar's brocade robe, Zhuang Buzhou seemed to have a scholarly atmosphere about him. Yun Qinghe was also wearing robes, and even Xia Wuya and the others were also transformed into scholar robes. Su Qiu even transformed into a woman disguised as a man. In appearance, he is not much different from a man, except that he looks a little more feminine on the surface, but under the background of his heroic spirit.
It's not a big deal, but my chest muscles are a bit big.
But it is not the existing impression. With the perspective of ancient times, it is not easy to distinguish between male and female.
Definitely not a shoddy makeup technique.
Don't underestimate the skills and vision of the ancients. If ordinary women disguised themselves as men and couldn't detect it, they were either blind or just pretending not to know. But Su Qiu, unless she said she was a woman, it was almost difficult to tell.
It's so easy to tell whether I'm male or female.
The thin monkey wears all the clothes on his body, which is called nondescript and makes people laugh.
Everyone was confused for a while. They didn't understand why they were like this. Didn't they just step into Baisha Academy? Why did everything change all of a sudden? Not only were they surprised by their own changes, but there were not just the five of them in the square, but hundreds of students.
They are different in height, fat and thin.
There was a kind of yearning and expectation in his expression.
"Meet Sir!!"
A group of students bowed and worshiped at the same time.
During this process, both Zhuang Buzhou and Xia Wuya obviously did not move. Among many students, they stood out from the crowd. They suddenly stood out and looked like aliens.
"Um!!"
When the gentleman saw Zhuang Buzhou and the others standing in front of them, other students were saluting, but they remained indifferent, and felt unhappy in their hearts. Such people who have no respect for their teachers are really like rotten trees.
However, he didn't say much.
He nodded slowly and said: "Everyone who comes to our Baisha Academy, you must study hard to help yourself improve your studies. You will not waste your good time. However, our Baisha Academy does not accept everyone, but only those who can be taught." , those who teach Confucianism and Taoism can naturally not accept some rotten wood. Therefore, for example, Baisha Academy has three passes. Those who can pass one pass can enter the inner courtyard of the academy. Those who can pass three passes can receive guidance from the master. . If you can't pass one of the three hurdles, it's just rotten wood."
"Of course, the academy will not give up. If there is education without distinction, a rotten tree may never bloom. Those who fail to pass will be admitted to the outer academy. Those who have excellent grades in the outer academy for three years can enter the inner academy. This is the academy's mercy for you."
The gentleman spoke.
Baisha Academy has a great Confucian in charge, and it can be said that it has a great reputation. I don't know how many scholars and students flock to the Academy. Who doesn’t want to be a disciple of Confucianism? However, obviously, not everyone has such qualifications.
"The academy is merciful, and the Master is merciful."
Many students shouted with joy on their faces.
It is a great opportunity to come to Baisha Academy.
"My academy has three entry levels, which will be held in Shushan. As long as you step on it, you will naturally know what the test is. And if you fail to pass the test, you will have to accept the punishment. If you fail the first level, after accepting the punishment, you can directly enter the second level. If you fail the second level, you can continue to accept the punishment. After the punishment, go directly to the third level. If you still can't pass the third level, you will be placed in the outer courtyard, Kuchiki."
The gentleman nodded and spoke decisively.
If you pass any of the three levels, you can enter the inner courtyard.
"Come with me."
The gentleman was in front, walking towards the academy.
Zhuang Buzhou and the others all looked at each other in surprise. This development caught them off guard. This situation is so weird.
"Brother Yun, what is going on? Do you have any ideas?" Zhuang Buzhou asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, but if nothing else happens, this White Sands Academy may be a strange restricted area. As soon as we stepped into the academy, we had already entered the restricted area. Affected by the invisible and strange rules, we all became students of the academy. This kind of weird building generally has special rules. As long as it is not violated, it should be safe for the time being. Wait and see what happens, and the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth. Find out the rules in the academy first, and then make other plans. Otherwise, acting rashly will only lead to nothing. Suffering disaster."
Yun Qinghe also said with a solemn expression.
There's definitely some weirdness involved here, there's no mistaking it.
In the face of Weirdness, even the most powerful monks dare not take it lightly, because Weirdness itself is actually connected to Guixu. Especially for this kind of weird restricted area, once their special weird rules are triggered, the top monks may die on the spot. This is a bunch of things that don't make sense. Backed by Guixu, they are a group of sons of destiny.
Therefore, after Yun Qinghe noticed the strangeness of this academy, he immediately did not dare to act rashly.
Let’s see everything first and then talk about it.
"Well, I also feel that it is very inappropriate to act rashly. I don't know if the students here are alive or dead. In short, I can't see through them. I feel that many rules here have been distorted and are different from the outside world."
Xia Wuya also came over and whispered.
Here, there seems to be a strange influence all the time.
Let yourself subconsciously accept that you are a student of Baisha Academy.
If they had not cultivated themselves, I am afraid that they would have completely accepted this knowledge from the beginning. But if this continues, no one knows how long it can last.
"The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's follow it and take a look first."
Zhuang Buzhou took a deep breath and recalled the previous situation. It seemed that the Yin General's fundamental purpose was to let them enter the academy.
After reaching an agreement, the group of people mingled among the students and followed them into the depths of the academy.
Not long after, we came to a big mountain.
At first glance, this mountain gives people a very special feeling. It is three hundred feet high. It is not too high, but it is definitely not too low. Standing at the foot of the mountain, it still gives people a very small feeling. Moreover, there are many trees growing on this mountain, and these trees are also special. What grows on the trees is not leaves, but a book. These ancient books are fluttering in the wind, and they seem to be able to convey pleasant reading sounds.
"This one is the Book Mountain. This Book Mountain is 333 feet high. As long as you reach the top of the Book Mountain, you have passed the first level."
The gentleman pointed at Shushan and said calmly: "Now, you can climb the mountain. You have one day to reach the top of the mountain. Those who have not reached it will be considered a failure."
On the Book Mountain, there is a staircase. This staircase leads directly to the top of the mountain. Follow the staircase to reach the end. This mountain of books is more than 300 feet, which is more than 1,000 meters high. Climbing it does not seem to be difficult. It seems that it only tests the climber's physical fitness.
However, is the test really that simple?
Zhuang Buzhou thought to himself, this mountain of books is by no means simple.
At this moment, students have already begun to climb up the mountain of books.
Among the students, they can only follow them to the mountain of books.
But as soon as he stepped on it, in an instant, everyone outside him seemed to disappear out of thin air, and he was the only one left in the entire Shushan.
"Something weird."
A thought quickly flashed through Zhuang Buzhou's mind.
This must be caused by the special power from Shushan.
Not surprisingly, anyone who sets foot on the mountain of books will become a person of their own.
"Hey, where's the road?"
After stepping on it, he was in the mountain of books. Zhuang Buzhou looked up into the void and found that the original staircase road had disappeared. Moreover, as far as he could see, there were layers of fog everywhere, blocking his sight and making it difficult to see clearly. The road ahead.
How to go about this.
Visibility is less than three meters. Under such circumstances, climbing the mountain is obviously very difficult. Moreover, I can clearly feel that when I set foot on the mountain of books, an invisible pressure appeared on my body inexplicably. This pressure is not obvious yet, but it has obviously increased a lot of weight. This is never a good thing when climbing. The key is that here, it seems that cultivation magic power cannot be used.
Zhuang Buzhou tried briefly, using his innate Qi to resist external pressure, but the next second, heavier pressure followed. After the true energy dissipated, the pressure on his body also returned to its original state. Obviously, this mountain of books can only be climbed with one's own physical strength. Unable to use powers beyond those of a mortal.
"You must first find the staircase. There is only one staircase that can climb this mountain of books."
Zhuang Buzhou thought to himself.
During the observation just now, I have discovered that although Shushan is big, there is only one way up the mountain. Now I am obviously not on the stairs, so I must first find that way before I can have a chance to climb up.
Look around, there are big trees with books hanging on them. These are sage trees. Confucian monks can infuse what they have understood and learned into trees and grow treasure books.
I couldn't help but reach out and pluck a copy from the tree.
"The Analects of Confucius"
Zhuang Buzhou took a look and saw that this was a sage classic. It is a compilation of records of words and deeds between Confucius and his disciples.
When he opened it, he saw lines of writing on it. This was a real book, not a pretense.
Confucius said: "Knowing one's words brings beauty, and one's benevolence shines brightly!"
Zeng Zi said, "I examine myself three times every day: Are I unfaithful in my plans for others? Are I disloyal in my dealings with friends? Are I not accustomed to preaching?"
Zhuang Buzhou opened his mouth and read aloud softly. These are some classics left by sages, which are worthy of future generations to study deeply and study for a lifetime. When reading aloud, I am also comprehending the words and deeds of the sages and comprehending their moral character and spirit.
Before I knew it, I had finished reading the Analects of Confucius.
During this process, there seemed to be no sense of the passage of time.
