Chapter 55 Please give Master Lin some advice.
After finishing a bowl of milk, Lin Wushang officially started today's questions.

"You said before that girls in future generations can also go to school, and the court will provide all children with nine years of compulsory education. So what do they learn in these nine years?"

Lin Xi: "Chinese, mathematics, English..."

Although she has not been a student for many years, she still remembers the courses for primary and secondary school students very clearly.

Lin Wushang: "Chinese, language? Mathematics, arithmetic? What is English?"

Lin Xi: "A foreign language. Our country is called Huaguo, and it speaks Chinese, while English is the language of a country called Britain..."

Lin Wushang's heart moved, "Can you show me a demonstration?"

Lin Xi dipped her fingers in some tea and wrote a few English words on the table, I-I, you-You, she-She.

A text symbol he had never seen before came into view, and Lin Wushang almost instantly thought of its many uses.

For example, a code word used for intelligence communication.

Delivering messages in the military.

Write some secrets that cannot be shared by outsiders...

The code words he used to record important experiences in his previous life were still at risk of being deciphered. Although he hid them well, what if they were leaked?

But this English, which only Lin Xi knows, has no such worries at all.

After he learned it, even if the record book was discovered, others would not be able to understand what was written on it, let alone decipher it.

"Teach me." Lin Wushang looked at her earnestly.

Lin Xi's lips curled up, her smile a little evil, "Why should I teach you?"

He was destined to die in her hands, why should she waste her efforts teaching a dead man?
Lin Wushang: "I can promise you something."

Lin Xi: "Detoxify me."

If she hadn't been poisoned in her body and had to take the antidote once a month, or she would have felt the pain of burning her body with fire that day again, she wouldn't have answered his question.

Lin Wushang shook his head: "Except for this matter."

She refused to obey even under the restraint of poison, and was only willing to answer three of his questions at a time. If her poison was detoxified, she would probably ignore him even if he was rational.

Lin Xi closed her eyes and refused to communicate anymore.

Lin Wushang gently flicked her eyelashes, as if touching a beautiful butterfly.

Under Lin Xi's angry glare, he smiled and said, "Don't pretend to sleep when you are angry. Apart from detoxifying you, I can promise you anything else as long as it doesn't touch my bottom line. How about that?"

Lin Xi looked at him coldly, not at all.

When she gets older and has the ability to move on her own, what else will she need his help with?
Her arrogant and repulsive look... is also quite cute.

Lin Wushang taught her earnestly: "There are people outside. No matter how powerful you are, there are things you can't do. Why don't you agree? Teaching me English won't do you any harm."

Lin Xi's eyes flashed slightly, as if she was persuaded.

Lin Wushang took a hexagram chip from the bamboo tube next to him and handed it to her.

"Using this hexagram as proof, if you hold it, you can come to me at any time to fulfill your promise."

This is his tool for pretending to be a magic stick.

Ever since he decided to install a magic stick, he had all the equipment, including hexagram chips, hexagram plates, and turtle shells.

I also collected many books on divination and put them in the study, such as "Book of Changes", "Shenxiang Jing", "Tianyu Jing" and so on.

Of course, he didn't just use these books for show, he also read and studied them in private.

After all, you have to have real talent and learning to pretend to be a magic stick, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed.

The last time he was able to convince his grandfather, it was because of his divination (deception) skills.

There are 64 hexagrams in the "Book of Changes", so he ordered people to make 64 hexagram chips.

Each hexagram is about two fingers wide and palm long, with the hexagram name, hexagram symbols and hexagram words written on it.

The fortune teller can randomly draw a hexagram chip from the bamboo tube, and he will perform divination and interpretation based on the hexagram images on the hexagram chip.Lin Wushang glanced at the hexagram he randomly pulled out. It was hexagram No. 11, Tai hexagram.

The earth and the sky are peaceful, the earth is above and the earth is below.

Symbolizes peace and prosperity.

It's a lucky hexagram.

Does it mean that his purpose can be achieved?

Lin Xi took the hexagram chip. The wooden hexagram chip felt like jade, delicate and warm, with a light and comfortable atmosphere.

There were symbols drawn on it that she couldn't understand. She knew the words, but when they were put together, she didn't know what they meant.

"Why?"

Lin Wushang was afraid that she wouldn't ask. If she asked, it meant that she was interested and curious.

He patiently explained to her: "This hexagram is a superposition of different hexagrams. Kun is at the top, for earth, and yin; Qian is at the bottom, for heaven and yang.

"The heaven is supposed to be above and the earth is below. The yin and yang of this hexagram are reversed, but it is an auspicious hexagram. Do you know why?"

Lin Xi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't give me any excuses."

Lin Wushang laughed. Did she really only allow the state officials to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps? She only allowed her to show off, but not allowed him to sell it?

“The Yin Qi above is heavy and sinks, but it is supported by the Yang Qi below and will not be exhausted; the Yang Qi below is clear and rises, but it is restricted by the Yin Qi above.

"The two check and balance each other and protect each other, the yin and yang interact with each other, and the upper and lower communicate with each other. This is how the heaven and the earth intersect, and all things are in peace."

Lin Xi suddenly realized.

A few simple horizontal bars combined together have such rich meanings. Divination is really a profound knowledge.

Lin Wushang struck while the iron was hot: "If you are interested in divination, I can teach you."

Lin Xi: "The condition is to teach you English?"

Lin Wushang: "No, it's free. Of course, it would be great if you are willing to teach me English. My previous promise is still valid."

Lin Xi suddenly thought of something. If she mastered some knowledge or skills outside the system, could she directly apply to take the exam in the relevant courses without purchasing the courses in the system space?

She closed her eyes, her consciousness entered the space, and asked the system.

The system's answer is affirmative, "Congratulations to the host for discovering a new way to obtain points. However, the system would like to remind the host that if you skip the step of purchasing courses, the host will not be able to pass check-in, complete class hours, in-class tests, etc. Earn points.

"In addition, there is only one opportunity to apply for the exam at each stage of each course. Once used, even if the host purchases the corresponding course later, he will not be able to apply to take the exam."

Lin Xi was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect it to work. In this way, she could study some courses directly outside without spending points to purchase them.

She opened her eyes again and silently said to Lin Wushang, "Deal."

Lin Wushang smiled: "Then I'll ask Master Lin for some advice."

Thinking of learning English from Lin Xi, Lin Wushang came over early the next morning.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xi was still sleeping soundly.

Her sleeping face is so peaceful and lovely that no one can bear to disturb her.

When Lin Xi woke up, she found that she was on the boat, and Lin Wushang was playing chess next to her, playing with her left and right hands.

She thought, chess seems to be easier to master than divination?

Divination is undoubtedly a profound knowledge that requires practice to gain true knowledge. Only by practicing more and regularly giving people divination can your divination skills improve.

But she can't even speak now, so how can she practice divination for people?
Playing chess is different. Playing chess only requires using your brain and hands, not your mouth.

Moreover, Lin Wushang is a ready-made opponent, and she can continue to improve in the process of playing chess with him.

I just don’t know how good his chess skills are?
If it is too low, she is not qualified to teach her.
