The next day,
At dawn, the sky has just brightened.
A ray of light from the rising sun illuminated the white snow on the eaves of the small earth courtyard.
The crystal clear ice flowers hanging down from the eaves are shining with pure white red light, penetrating into the house and shining on the bed.
Su Chen was disturbed by two waves of mysterious people last night. He was worried until late at night. No other thieves came to visit him, so he fell asleep.
At this moment, he was dazzled by the bright light outside the window and realized that it was already dawn. He turned over and woke up with a hungry stomach that kept growling.
"I'm so hungry! Find some work quickly and earn some money!"
Su Chen touched his growling stomach and smiled bitterly.
Just eating rice porridge will not make you hungry at all, let alone practicing the "Yin Yang Jue" technique.
He thought for a moment, then took out a gold-rimmed "Imperial Calendar" from the pouch hidden under his pillow, and looked up to the eleventh day of the winter lunar month.
Yesterday, at the winter solstice, I netted and caught a rare young golden-scaled fish. This shows that the "Yin Yang Gate Book of the Imperial Calendar" that my father gave him to predict good and bad luck was very effective.
Of course, as the heavenly stems, earthly branches, and stars change, and the constellations, solar terms, sun, and moon change from moment to moment, the best things to do every day also change accordingly.
If I go fishing today, I'm afraid I won't catch anything.
"{The eleventh day of the winter month} is an auspicious day!
Suitable for: schooling and market.
Taboo: None. "
Su Chen turned to the Yellow Pages for the eleventh day of the winter month, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.
"It's an auspicious day, and your luck seems to be good today!"
Should: Enroll in school!
Enrollment means going to a private school to study.
Each fairy city in the Great Ji Immortal Dynasty had private schools, which were opened by famous local celebrities to teach and teach.
Of course, what is taught is the various schools of thought, including Taoism, Confucianism, Mohism, Bing, Dharma, Yin-Yang Sect, etc.
He attended a private school in Chaoge City for several years, but after Chaoge City was captured by barbarians, the private school disciples disbanded and he fled to Luoyi Imperial City. Due to financial constraints, he stopped studying.
Su Chen looked at the "Imperial Calendar" with regret in his heart.
He would rather go to a private school to study again.
But now my stomach is not full, and I feel dizzy with hunger when I wake up early in the morning.
Going to a private school to become a disciple would also require a large amount of money for training. I couldn't raise the money in a short period of time, and I didn't have any spare money to pay for training.
Look down, the second one is Fangshi!
Is this asking me to go to the market and look for opportunities to make money?
"This one is good!"
Su Chen remembered that there was indeed a small night market in Gutong Alley.
It’s very lively every night.
The common people in the city, as well as many civilians who had fled to Luoyi, and even some disciples of various disciples and children of aristocratic families, gathered in the night market to trade goods with each other and get what they needed.
Refugees take their most valuable possessions with them when they flee.
But when the refugees arrived in Luoyi, they had no source of income and it was difficult to find a living. Due to financial constraints, he had no choice but to take out valuable ancestral treasures and sell them at a low price.
Nowadays, in Luoyifang City, you can often find some small and exquisite ancestral treasures.
If you're lucky and discerning, it's not uncommon to find cheap ones. If you resell it to someone who knows the goods, the price may be doubled or ten times higher.
Fortunately, I haven't fallen to the point where I want to sell my treasures!
However, I need to make money quickly, otherwise I am afraid that in a month or two, I will have to sell my property to survive.
Su Chen put on a white washed green cloth, then went to the water tank in the woodshed next door, took a basin of cold water, washed his face and rinsed his mouth.
The young golden scales were swimming in a large water tank, spitting out strings of bubbles and playing with each other.
Seeing Su Chen arriving, it ignorantly knew that Su Chen was its master. It couldn't help but feel shy, and sank to the bottom of the tank again, turning over its belly and pretending to be dead.
"This little guy~ is still a little scared of strangers!"
Su Chen smiled.
Perhaps because of the Yin-Yang Fish Seal, Young Jinlin's hostility towards him was greatly reduced, and she no longer glared at him fiercely.
Su Chen ignored it, scooped a tub of ice water into the water tank, and washed his face.
Stimulated by the icy cold water,
He instantly became more energetic!
"Today's "Imperial Calendar" only has two items: "Enrollment and Fangshi".
How about I go to a private school to become a teacher during the day? !
Then in the evening, I went to the night market to try my luck.
If you can earn a sum of money at the night market and use it for Buddhist monks training, then the tuition fee for studying in a private school will not be a problem! "
When Su Chen thought of this, he immediately made up his mind.
These two results deduced from the Yin-Yang Sect's sacred scripture "Imperial Calendar" are the most suitable things for him to do in a day.
Let’s go to the private school and have a look later!
If you fail to become a disciple in a private school, you will have no loss.
Ok, deal!
...
Su Chen used a bronze lock to lock the wooden door of the small earth courtyard.
Afterwards, he went to find a private school in Luoyi City.
He had stayed in Luoyi for several months, and he had known that there was a private school called "Wenwen Private School" in Gutong Alley, which was quite famous in Luoyi City.
It was just that he had been short of money before, so he didn't dare to go to study.
Looking through the "Emperor's Calendar" today, it was a good omen for "entering school and going to the market", so he came to this private school to give it a try. After today, there may not be better opportunities in the future.
At this time, it was just early in the morning, and there were sparse footprints all over the snow in Gutong Lane. There were already vendors selling pastries in twos and threes, and the vendors were shouting loudly.
Passing through a path in the alley, we arrived at the door of Dao Dao Private School.
This private school was located deep in an alley and was originally quite secluded.
A low earthen wall is surrounded by a bamboo fence, which is very elegantly maintained and covered with withered yellow ivy vines. You can vaguely hear the sound of reading aloud from the courtyard, such as "Spring and Autumn", "Tao Zang" and other classics. .
At this time, dozens of young people in rich and colorful clothes had gathered outside the private school. Most of them were around thirteen or fifteen years old. They were talking excitedly about something in front of a notice on the door.
"This old master Wang Chan from the private school is a famous scholar in Luoyi!
As early as more than a hundred years ago, Master Wang once served as the Grand Chancellor of the vassal state of Chu, ranking as a high minister, assisting the king of Chu in governing the country. The state of Chu has been strong and prosperous for a hundred years.
At that time, Old Master Wang was already at the sixth level of the Taoist sect, only one step away from the seventh level of the Taoist sect, and was famous all over the world.
It’s so inspiring!
I don’t know what level of practice his old man has reached now that he has been living in seclusion for a hundred years! "
There was a young man in a white robe who seemed to know the identity of Old Master Wang quite well. His face was full of admiration and he spoke impassionedly.
"After the Prince resigned, he went into seclusion in Luoyi. The government and the public no longer heard from the Prime Minister, but there was an old Master.
He opened a Taoist private school in this imperial city to teach disciples, preach and teach, and recruit disciples.
In the past fifty years, no less than ten disciples of Master Wang have been admitted to Jixia Academy—the first official academy run by the Great Ji Immortal Dynasty, ranking first among all the universities in China! "
"In this way, if we can enter the private school, wouldn't we be half-stepped into Jixia Academy?!"
A young man in brocade clothes asked excitedly.
"Hmph~! Don't think about it. Mr. Wang is extremely demanding in accepting disciples. If the talent is not good, even the disciples of princes, princes, ministers and officials are useless. I don't know how many people get a bad taste every day. They come with good fortune and return with bad luck.
You can't even get into this private school, let alone Jixia Academy. "
"Could you do it?"
"Of course, I am at the ninth level of the Confucian sect, and my breakthrough is about to happen~!"
The young people were arguing with each other, their faces were red, and they even rolled up their sleeves.
Su Chen squeezed into this group of noisy teenagers.
But I saw a bamboo slip sign posted on the wooden door of the private school.
I don’t know which senior fellow in the private school wrote a line of handwriting in an extremely scrawled way - {This private school is open today to accept disciples, come quickly~! It is limited to three disciples, only when full, no waiting will be done if you are late! }
