Reading: Beginning as the Dean of the Academy

Chapter 122: Viewing Xinzhou Academy

Zhou Yongan was silent. He never thought that his ancestors still had such glory, let alone that the streams that are commonplace on weekdays actually hide such an amazing secret.

The same is true for Zhang Yi, but he thinks more. He associates Huanxi Village with Xinzhou Academy.

In the academy, the ginkgo tree that flourishes all the year round may also be like this for some special reasons.

Then, as Dean Su of Xinzhou Academy, he is definitely not an ordinary person.

Knowing the past of the Zhou family, Su Le didn't hesitate, and decided to make alchemy and fire-avoiding pills in Huanxi Village.

The backyard of the Zhou family's ancestral hall is an alchemy room. All the utensils are ready, even the materials that need to be refined to avoid fire pills are all put together.

"Apart from food delivery, don't come in and disturb me at other times."

"Don't worry, sir. As long as there is a Zhou family in Huanxi Village, no one will be allowed to disturb you."

Zhou Tai patted his chest to assure that, in fact, it was indeed as he said. After he told several other elders of the older generation in the village, these elders spoke up, and the whole village was shocked. The middle-aged guarded the ancestral hall, and began to set up roadblocks one mile away to prevent any outsiders from entering.

Before Su Le entered Dan's room, he called his brother-in-law and Shen Qing, and told Shen Qing to call his brother-in-law if he encountered any problems, and to call his brother-in-law in case his parents or elder sister wanted to find him. If you can't find it, your brother-in-law can explain it to you.

Everything was ready, Su Le was about to step into the alchemy room, but after entering, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

"Dean Su, your phone number."

Zhang Yi also stayed in the ancestral hall, guarding here with the older generation of the Zhou family. The older generation of the Zhou family did not plan to tell the younger generation the secret of alchemy.

So the juniors of the Zhou family didn't know what happened, but the Zhou family's family rules are here, and these juniors dare not disobey the orders of the elders.

"Uncle Chen, what's the matter?"

Su Le glanced at the calling number, it was the phone number of Chen Qingzhi's uncle Chen Jingsheng.

"Su Le, it's like this. Isn't the school going to start now? I'm going to start a traditional Chinese culture education to prevent a group of students from visiting your academy to learn traditional culture and understand the reading spirit of the ancients."

Upon hearing Chen Jingsheng's words, Su Le understood that this was Chen Jingsheng expressing his gratitude to him.

He helped him solve the troubles himself, and he couldn't give him money directly, so he used this method. If his academy charged fees, he could make a fortune.

It's a pity that Xinzhou Academy doesn't charge any fees, but Su Le still agreed. Although he can't make any money, he can earn points for spreading the text.

After hanging up the phone, Su Le handed the phone to Zhang Yi, closed the courtyard door, took a bath in the side water room, and walked into the alchemy room.

The alchemy furnace has already been moved to the alchemy room and placed in the most central position.

Su Le didn't refine the Fire-Banning Pill as soon as he came, but found some medicinal materials and started refining. Although he knew the refining method of the Taiyi Fire-Banning Pill, the whole alchemy technique was only theoretical, so he decided to first Get familiar with the operation process.

An hour later, the first batch of elixirs came out, but they were all burnt black and exuded a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine.

Obviously, the refining failed.

In the second hour, another batch of elixir was released, this time the color turned purple, and it was still a failure.

At the third hour, the alchemy furnace was opened, and a scent of fragrance wafted in. Seeing the dozen or so green pills in the furnace, Su Le had a satisfied look on his face.

Insect repellent pills.

A very simple traditional Chinese medicine pill, which can drive away parasites in the body after taking it.

After practicing with insect repelling pills and getting familiar with the operation of the alchemy furnace, Su Le first turned on the faucet in the alchemy room and cleaned the alchemy furnace with water.

The faucet in the alchemy room is not connected to tap water, but a pipe is installed, which directly leads to an ancient well.

The water for alchemy, the clean and sweet spring water at the foot of the mountain stone, is the water of Yangmai, followed by the water at a depth of 50 meters underground.

The water taken by Zhou's alchemy room is deep underground water.

After cleaning the alchemy furnace, Su Le lit a simmering fire in the alchemy furnace to let the temperature slowly dry the alchemy furnace. This was a long process, and Su Le went directly to the side room to sleep.

Alchemy is a very mind-consuming thing.

When Su Le got up again, it was the time of the second day, the beginning of recovery of Yang Qi.

According to the refining steps of Taiyi Bihuo Pill, Su Le first placed the pill furnace on the stone altar that symbolizes the three layers of "Heaven, Earth and Man".

Immediately afterwards, the medicinal materials are thrown into the tripod, and water is added at the same time, and a branch that has been broken from the tree and has not fallen to the ground is stirred in the tripod.

As the temperature rose, the medicinal materials gradually melted into the water and began to turn into a cloudy liquid with a strong smell.

One kind of medicinal material, as Su Le continued to add, the color of the liquid also changed from black to blue, and when it turned into blue, Su Le opened a seal of the furnace to let the liquid flow out.

Then, take out the medicinal tea dregs in the furnace, then pour the liquid into it, and refine again.

This time, Su Le picked up two mudstone sculptures of dragon heads and fish tails placed on one side.

owl kiss.

Legendary beasts that can avoid fire usually appear at both ends of the roof ridges of ancient buildings.

According to what Zhou Tai said, these two owl kisses came from the Forbidden City in the capital. When the Qing Dynasty collapsed, the ancestors of the Zhou family paid for the masters responsible for the maintenance of the Forbidden City buildings, and secretly replaced them with newly fired owl kisses.

Su Le didn't throw the two owls into the liquid, but carefully scraped a layer of plaster off their bodies with a jade knife and floated into the liquid.

Afterwards, Su Le added a few more special ingredients. In order to prevent the recipe from leaking out, I won't describe it in detail here.

……

Cover the tripod and seal the furnace.

However, Su Le's work didn't stop there. If Taiyi Avoid Fire Pill could be easily refined like this, the Zhou family wouldn't spend so much effort to find Zhang Daoling's successor.

There is still a very important step for the Taiyi Fire Avoidance Pill, which is the fire talisman.

A special sealing technique, which can control the fire of the alchemy furnace, is also the most critical step in alchemy.

Su Le sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, and made seals with both hands, circulating the awe-inspiring righteousness in his body.

There is a saying in Taoist alchemy: gold is gas, wood is god, and when metal and wood interact, the spirit and energy are one, and bathing is necessary.

The so-called alchemy to become immortal does not refer to the refining of pills that can be taken by people who can live forever and ascend to immortality, but to refine oneself as a pill.

Among them, bathing is very important.

Taking a bath, subduing the mind, calming down the self-cultivation kung fu, also known as subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger
Extracting and adding, extracting will damage, and adding will benefit. The pursuit of greed and delusion is detrimental to the heart and nature, and the true essence of the essence is strengthened.

Su Le seals and runs the method of bathing, the body's awe-inspiring climate goes to the Jiaji of the Du Channel, giving up the initiative to breathe, and using the body's instinct to breathe naturally, which is also called cease-fire.

If someone observed it, they would find that when Su Le gave up taking the initiative to breathe, the flame in the pill furnace no longer jumped, but became stable.

And as Su Le's handprint changed, the flame in the stove also changed accordingly.

People and furnaces.

This is the magic of Zhang Daoling's alchemy.

Time is also constantly passing with the jump of the flame.

……

Xinzhou Academy.

"Everyone line up, come one by one, don't run around."

"Zhu Xiaoxiao, why are you so disobedient, I told you not to move around."

Outside the gate of Xinzhou Academy, tourists who came to visit curiously found that there was a long queue from the gate to the foot of the mountain.

Of course, the steps of the mountain road up the mountain are wide enough, and this team will not block the way up the mountain.

What tourists are curious about is why these students came to the academy. Looking at this posture, this is a school where all the students are mobilized.

"Ms. Li, these students are really worrying."

"Yes, there is no other way. The principal arranged for it to cultivate children's interest in and awe of traditional culture. If it weren't for the fact that the academy doesn't charge fees, I would wonder if the principal took kickbacks from the academy."

"Hush, Mr. Li, you really dare to say anything. You can't say these words indiscriminately. Let me tell you, not only our school, but all the primary and secondary schools in the entire urban area are coming to visit. Now the students of the second primary school We have arrived and are queuing at the foot of the mountain."

"The whole city!"

The young teacher Li Yang stopped talking, which is really not something the principal can do.

"Let's take the students in first, maybe I have to write an after-view review."

Li Yang led the students into the academy, and a gust of fresh wind blew in, and the feeling of dryness and heat eased a bit.

"Wow, what a beautiful ginkgo tree."

"so beautiful."

When these elementary school students entered the academy, they were fascinated by the ginkgo tree at first sight, and Li Yang was the same. Although it was not the first time for him to come, every time he came, he was shocked by the beauty of the ginkgo tree.

"Students, don't mess up the team, let's go forward."

Taking the students with him, Li Yang naturally couldn't just enjoy the beautiful scenery quietly, thinking of coming to play again on the weekend.

Soon, he led his students to the Shangwen Pavilion, looking at the group of people dressed as ancient scholars standing in front of the Shangwen Pavilion, he didn't know what to do next.

"Your Excellency is the teacher of these children, have you ever read the Four Books and Five Classics?"

Zhong Keming walked forward with a smile. Li Yang listened to the other person and shook his head. It is true that he had read one or two articles of the Four Books and Five Classics. If he had read all of them, he estimated that few people in modern times could do it.

No?

What does your look mean?
disdain?

That's right, Zhong Keming is indeed contemptuous. He already knew from Shen Qing that the place where he teaches now is called a school, and there are teachers in the school.

But as a teacher, I haven't even read the Four Books and Five Classics, so what else do I teach students?
It's purely a mistake.

Zhong Keming was about to curse.

"That...Deputy President Zhong, this is an elementary school, and elementary school is equivalent to entering Mongolian learning, and all the teaching is superficial elementary school." Shen Qing saw that something was wrong, and immediately came to explain.

"Learning, how about "Children Learning Qionglin", "Zhu Zi's Family Instructions", and "Zeng Guang Xian Wen"?"

Li Yang continued to shake his head.

Zhong Keming's face darkened.

"What about "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Classic" and "Hundred Surnames"?"

This time Li Yang nodded, he will still do these things.

"Students go in, just stand there and wait."

Zhong Keming was very dissatisfied with Li Yang, and he didn't want to talk to Li Yang anymore, so he pointed to the exit on the right side of Shangwen Pavilion towards Li Yang, and at this moment, the other students of Yunshan Academy, hearing Dean Zhong's words, immediately took the lead. He led the children into Shangshu Pavilion.

"Hey, I want to go in..."

"Ms. Li, the children will be fine and will come out in a while."

Shen Qing stopped Li Yang, if he didn't stop, if Li Yang rushed in, something would happen.

Teaching and educating people, especially when the teacher is teaching, it is strictly forbidden to make noise and noise. If Li Yang rushes in, the teachers and students of Yunshan Academy will beat him up.

Speaking of it, Shen Qing was also a little helpless. He received a call from the dean, and he told the matter to Dean Zhong Keming.

The original intention was to hope that when so many students came, the teachers and students of Yunshan Academy would not cause any trouble, but I didn't expect that after Senior Zhong heard his words and understood what was going on with the school and the students, he would take the initiative to say that he would help.

So there was this scene in front of me.

Li Yang was very dissatisfied, but thinking that this might be arranged by the leaders, he could only hold back and walked to the exit to wait.

Ten minutes later, the children came out of the Shangwen Pavilion. Li Yang was about to ask about the situation of the students inside, but found that his students, including those mischievous ones, all turned around and bowed to the door.

This scene shocked him.

"Hmph, the teacher is not very good, but the students are still good."

A voice of dissatisfaction made Li Yang wake up from the shock. Looking at the Dean Zhong who had gone away, Li Yang opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
