Xiang Yang held the xun with both hands, tested the sound, and started to blow it.

The sound of the xun was low and melodious, desolate and distant.Xiao Yu listened intently, his mind seemed to travel through the vicissitudes of time and space, and returned to his familiar and strange homeland. There were tall buildings he was familiar with, intersecting roads, flashing neon lights, and his dear parents, respected teachers, Dear friend, but without him.

In the next second, he seemed to be in the boundless snow field, everything around him was covered by ice and snow, everything he was familiar with disappeared, and only he was left in the whole world. .

"Lang Jun, Lang Jun." Someone called him softly.

Xiao Yu came back to his senses, and saw Xiang Yang looking at him anxiously.A small hand was gently rubbing his face. He looked down and saw that it was Aping who was touching his face. He grabbed Aping's hand and found that his hand was wet, so he wiped his cheek with the back of his hand. It was tears, I don't know when he had tears streaming down his face.

A Ping raised his arms, wrapped his arms around Xiao Yu's neck uneasily, and put his face on the side of his neck.Although he is small, he can feel the emotions of adults.

Xiao Yu turned around and smiled embarrassedly, and wiped away the tears on his face: "You played so well, I recall some past events."

Xiang Yang tentatively said: "I'm sorry, I have brought up your sorrow. If you are willing, you can talk to us."

Xiao Yu waved his hand: "Some trivial things are not enough for outsiders. How long have you been studying this?"

Xiang Yang looked at the Tao Xun in his hand, and said, "I've carried it with me since I can remember, and I don't know who gave it to me. I just blow it when I have nothing to do, and I don't have anyone to teach me. I learned it by myself."

Xiao Yu exclaimed: "You are a genius without a teacher."

"Lang Jun's praise is ridiculous, it's just a small skill." Xiang Yang's ears turned red from his praise.

Xiao Yu asked, "Does the piece you played just now have a name?"

Xiang Yang shook his head: "Not at all."

Xiao Yu said, "What were you thinking when you played this piece? You might as well give it a name."

"Please give me your name." Xiang Yang cupped his fists.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "I won't make a fool of myself, you are the creator and have the most right to name it. Have you thought about recording this song?"

Xiang Yang shook his head: "I have never learned the rhythm, and I don't know how to record it. Do you understand, sir?"

Xiao Yu knew that a lot of ancient music was lost due to the lack of simple and effective notation methods. He did know the numbered notation method, but no one here knows Arabic numerals. If he used Arabic numerals, he would be in trouble.

"I only know simple Gongshangjiao Zhengyu. Do you know the rhythm, Linzhi?" Xiao Yu inadvertently noticed that Pei Linzhi had come out at some time, and was standing in the corridor looking at them deeply.

Pei Linzhi didn't answer him, but said: "Shouldn't it be time for A Ping to take a bath?"

"Yes, it's time to take a bath." While agreeing, Xiao Yu didn't forget to say to Xiang Yang, "If you have time, you might as well study the rhythm. You have a lot of talent in this area, so don't waste it."

Pei Linzhi came over and hugged Aping from his arms.

Xiao Yu stood up: "Let me come, you go and copy the books."

Pei Linzhi ignored it: "I'll fetch water for you."

Ji Hai and Ju Yan were running in from the outside with their wet hair on top, Ji Hai hurriedly stopped: "Master, I'm here to fetch water for Mr. Lang."

Pei Linzhi asked: "Did Ju Yan go deep into the water?" The two of them went to the stream to take a bath.

Ju Yan quickly said: "Master, I didn't. I always washed in shallow water, brother can testify."

Ji Hai also said, "Master, he didn't go, I'm watching."

Xiao Yu asked, "Has Ju Yan learned how to swim?"

"I have learned a little bit. I also tried the drowning self-rescue method taught by Mr. Lang today. I can really float up from the water. I will not be afraid of drowning in the future." Ju Yan said excitedly, dancing.

"Yes, children can be taught." Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"Then you can't go into the water at will." Pei Linzhi said seriously, he looked at Xiao Yu helplessly, His Highness was studying some strange first aid methods again.

Sitting at the stone table, Xiang Yang watched the few of them chatting and laughing, with a look of envy in their eyes, he couldn't get into such a topic.Today, he managed to find a bosom friend, but in the end he still couldn't seize the opportunity. He wanted to study the rhythm carefully and make up some tunes for Mr. Xiao to listen to.

When Xiao Yu came out of the shower, A Ping was played by several older children. Ji Hai held A Ping, and was chased by Ju Yan and Yu Er, as if they were playing a game of catching a thief.

A Ping was so excited that he laughed. In fact, he didn't understand anything, but he felt happy because many people played with him.

Xiao Yu said: "Have you all taken a shower? Now you are sweating profusely from running, and you have to wash again later?"

Ji Hai stopped: "Okay, stop playing, let's go."

When A Ping saw Xiao Yu, he opened his arms towards him, wanting to hug him.Xiao Yu took it over, wiped his forehead, and smiled dotingly: "You didn't run away, so you're sweating profusely."

He casually tore off the veil hanging on the bamboo pole in front of the porch, and wiped the sweat from his forehead and neck.

Xiao Yu picked up a Zongye fan from the stone table and walked into the room, shaking it.Pei Linzhi was still copying books at his desk in front of the lamp.

Xiao Yu glanced at him from behind, his handwriting was between official script and regular script, very neat and beautiful, suitable for beginners.Xiao Yu noticed the sweat on his temples: "Is it hot?"

"It's okay." Pei Linzhi looked up at him.

"Wipe off your sweat." Xiao Yu handed him the handkerchief on his shoulders, and fanned him, but the lights flickered and almost went out.

Pei Linzhi hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the wind, and said with a smile, "Stop fanning, it doesn't matter."

Xiao Yu stopped, but he didn't fan the wind, which didn't mean there was no wind. The wind blowing in from the window caused the flames to shake violently again. Xiao Yu frowned and looked at it for a while, then went out with A Ping in his arms.

Pei Linzhi turned his head and asked, "Where is Mr. Lang going?"

Xiao Yu said, "It's just outside."

Pei Linzhi said: "Go out and call Shang Jihai."

"know."

Xiao Yu went out for a while, but A Ping disappeared, and returned with a piece of silk.

Pei Linzhi asked curiously: "What are you doing with this, sir? You can also sew clothes?"

"I'm not going to sew clothes. I'm going to make a lampshade."

There is no white paper, and the light of yellow paper-pasted lanterns is too dim, so silk is used instead.The lampshade is simple and easy to make, just tie bamboo strips into a lantern shape and wrap the silk cloth outside.

Silk is a plain yarn, colorless, very thin, and has good light transmission. When it is covered on the lamp, it can block the wind without affecting the lighting, so you don't have to worry about the lamp being blown out by the wind.

Pei Linzhi raised his head and gave him a gentle smile: "Thank you, sir."

Xiao Yu looked at his smile and found it very useful. He fanned Pei Linzhi with his fan: "Look, this way you won't be afraid of the wind." The lamp was blocked by the plain yarn, and no matter how strong the wind outside would be, it would not be affected .

Pei Linzhi was extremely moved: "Your Majesty, you don't need to fan me, I will do it myself."

The fan in Xiao Yu's hand flapped slowly: "You write yours. I'll fan you for a while."

Pei Linzhi didn't dare to disappoint him, so he calmed down and copied the book with peace of mind.

Xiao Yu watched him copy the book, and his thoughts slowly drifted to movable type printing.

In comparison, movable type printing is obviously more practical. Carving a set of characters has a wide range of applications, and it is an extremely worry-free method for engravers.

But should we use movable type printing?After all, this was not his own invention. If he had started movable type printing, he would be too sorry for Bi Sheng.

But is there still Bi Sheng in this time and space?It seems that since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the trend of history has been different from what he is familiar with.

If this is the case, it doesn't matter, after all, printing is an indispensable condition for promoting social progress.

"Lang Jun! Lang Jun!"

Xiao Yu suddenly came back to his senses and found that Pei Linzhi was looking at him: "What's wrong?"

Pei Linzhi's eyes were a little worried: "What is Mr. Lang thinking?"

Xiao Yu said "oh", "I'm thinking about printing."

"Is there any problem with printing?" Pei Linzhi asked.

Xiao Yu said: "There is no problem for the time being, but I think it is too hard for the master engraver to engrave a complete set of plates for each book."

Pei Linzhi smiled: "But it's also much faster than manual copying. You only need to work hard once, and you can make countless books in the future."

After all, Xiao Yu still didn't talk about movable type printing, woodblock printing has just been invented, and he immediately made movable type printing, he guessed that the people around him would worship him as a god.

After all, from woodblock printing to movable type printing, it has experienced at least two or 300 years of history.

Xiao Yu asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

Pei Linzhi asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, is there something on your mind?"

Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment, and denied, "No."

"What did Lang Jun think of when he listened to the music today?"

Xiao Yu thought to himself, as expected, he still saw it: "It just reminded me of what happened at my former home."

Pei Linzhi put down the pen in his hand, grabbed Xiao Yu's hand with both hands: "Mr. Wang is homesick, and one day, we will go back."

Xiao Yu showed a bitter smile, he will never go back.

Seeing him like this, Pei Linzhi felt very distressed: "I'm sorry, sir, I brought up your sadness again. Don't be sad, sir, Linzhi will accompany you."

Xiao Yu nodded with red eyes: "Thank you Rinzhi."

Pei Linzhi let go of his hand in a timely manner, and changed the subject: "I want to ask, after the school starts, will Lai Feng and others live in the school?"

Xiao Yu said: "That's what I planned. In fact, it's good for them to live here. At least you won't always worry about my safety."

Pei Rinzhi also admitted that he couldn't figure out the martial arts of these people, and they must be much better than Ji Hai.

It's a little worrying that the new governor is about to take office again. With them around, there is more protection.

Pei Linzhi suggested: "Then let Xiang Yang and Guan Shan move, and let Lai Feng stay here. The secret guard is used to walking around alone, so it's not suitable for three people to squeeze into a room."

Xiao Yu was very surprised: "You still care about their private space."

Pei Linzhi turned his face away, picked up a pen and began to copy the book: "If you want to keep them here, sir, that's fine."

Xiao Yu smiled: "Then let Xiang Yang and Guan Shan move to the school, it's enough for Lai Feng to stay."

The corner of Pei Linzhi's mouth turned up, and he quickly pulled it back.

On the second day, Xiao Yu talked to Lai Feng and the other three about the arrangement of the dormitory, but Guan Shan agreed, "No problem, I will move in."

Xiang Yang hesitated a bit: "I—"

Xiao Yu asked, "Doesn't Xiangyang want to move?"

Lai Feng said: "Xiang Yang doesn't want to move, so I'll do it."

Xiang Yang quickly said: "No, I'd better move. Brother, you stay and protect Lang Jun and A Ping."

Xiao Yu smiled and said: "The school is a bit deserted, but the room layout is not worse than this side. The room over there is ready, you can go and have a look first, tell me what is missing, and I will get someone to buy it .”

Xiang Yang was obviously absent-minded: "Thank you sir."

After Xiao Yu left, Guan Shan started to pack his things, in fact there were not many, it was nothing more than a change of clothes and his sword.

Xiang Yang didn't move, just stared at Tao Xun on the bed in a daze.

Lai Feng said, "Thirteen, you don't want to move?"

Xiang Yang turned to look at him, a little embarrassed: "No." He began to collect his things slowly.

Lai Feng said: "At the beginning, the Lord said that he would send you two to Mr. Lang. I remember that you were not happy at that time, so I never mentioned this to Mr. Lang. How about I go tell him now and let him He took you?"

Xiang Yang's ears were red, and he became angry with embarrassment: "Brother, stop talking. I didn't mean that."

Guan Shan, who has always been serious about his speech, suddenly said: "Brother, don't mention me in what you want to say, I don't have the guts, and it's not enough for Mr. Pei to cut me down."

Lai Feng sighed: "Thirteen, I know that you admire Langjun, and we also respect him from the bottom of our hearts. You have all seen that Langjun Dounan is alone, no one else in the world is better than him, and it is not for us to blaspheme. Take your thoughts away, and do things for your lord, if we can succeed in the future, we will be ministers, and we will leave a legacy in your heart. Isn't this better than a self-recommended pillow?"

Xiang Yang pursed her lips tightly and nodded.

On the first day of June, the school officially started.

More than 100 schoolchildren from four surrounding villages gathered in the school in Baisha Village. Among the schoolchildren, the ratio of male to female was extremely disparate. There was only one girl from the outer village, and she came with her elder brother. The remaining dozen girls were all from Baisha Village. .

The children in the outer village were very excited when they saw the bright and bright school. They had never seen such a beautiful green brick and tile house, and now they have the opportunity to go to class.

There was no formal class on the first day, but just getting familiar with the environment, dividing classes, distributing books, instructing the school on discipline, and popularizing safety education.The masters also told the students in their class one or two persuasive stories, and then dismissed them from school.

Xiao Yu watched the children, big and small, happily go home from school, feeling a great sense of accomplishment in his chest.

The first school was established in this way, and he hoped that there would be a second and third school in the future... just like a spark, it can become a prairie fire.

He also knew that there was a long way to go on this road, but at least they were already on the road.

For the first time, Xiao Yu began to seriously consider Pei Linzhi's wish. For him, this road is too difficult, but it's not worth it at all, is it?

Xiao Yu was in charge of arithmetic in the second and third grades, and he was still the same children he taught.

Every time he goes to class, he brings A Ping with him, because Xiaochun, who helps him take care of the children, also goes to class in the morning.

The little guy has a special set of desks and chairs, and like the older kids, he sits in the classroom and listens to Xiao Yu's lectures.

A Ping has been able to adapt to the class very well. Many times, he can sit quietly and pretend to listen to the class like a big child, although he can't understand at all.

Sometimes he can’t sit still. After all, it is the nature of children at this age to love to play and move. He will get off the chair and follow Xiao Yu’s appearance to patrol the classroom. The way he walks wobbly makes the older children laugh.

At this time, Xiao Yu would ask Guan Shan for help, and Guan Shan, the martial arts instructor with the fewest classes, would come to pick him up and take him outside to play.

A Ping is very used to the life of the school, because there are many people, he likes to be lively, the older children dote on him, and they take him to play around during recess.

The sixth day of June is Aping's first birthday.

In order to celebrate A Ping's first birthday, Xiao Yu decided to cook himself and prepare a sumptuous birthday feast for the little guy in the small kitchen.

In order to prepare for this birthday banquet, Pei Linzhi, who hadn't gone hunting in the mountains for a long time, was going to go hunting in the mountains.

Unexpectedly, starting from the fifth day of the new year, the first hurricane of this year came.

For the safety of the students, the second school has a holiday.

It can be said that the weather has been smooth this year, and there have been no hurricanes since the beginning of summer.

Xiao Yu was still secretly rejoicing, hoping that Min Chong and the others would go well and return to the voyage as soon as possible.

This hurricane was not considered a big one, but it brought abundant rainfall. The originally hot weather was swept away, and it was extremely cool immediately.

Because of the hurricane, Aping's birthday party was forced to be simple.

Pei Linzhi couldn't go out to hunt, and he didn't even have the usual seafood.

Xiao Yu arranged to kill a pig, chickens and ducks, and made a pot of tofu for a simple cooking.

When Xiao Yu was busy in the kitchen, Ah Ping was watched by Xiao Chun.

Several children were playing with oiled paper umbrellas and bamboo hats, stepping on water bubbles in the yard with their bare feet.

Ah Ping likes water very much. Seeing them playing, he wants to go too, but Xiaochun doesn't let him go in the rain.

Xiaochun went to the hut, and when she came back, she found that Aping had gone to the yard.

He didn't have an umbrella or a bamboo hat, and his little feet stepped happily on the green brick floor. Several children chased him to open an umbrella, and he hid everywhere.

The little fat man who usually wobbles when he walks, now runs very fast.

Xiaochun became anxious and rushed directly into the rain: "Ah Ping, you can't get caught in the rain."

Several people chased and intercepted, and finally caught this nimble little fat man.Xiaochun changed his wet clothes into clean ones, but he wasn't too happy about it, he wriggled his body and wanted to go out to play.

This episode passed quickly, and no one paid attention to it.

At noon, the people in the house had a birthday party with A Ping, and Xiang Yang and Guan Shan also came over.

After the meal, according to the tradition, Xiao Yu gave Aping a week-catching ceremony, and put brushes, books, abacus, wooden swords, shallots, wooden rulers, silver pieces, candied fruit and other items, and Lai Feng also added a A jade medal.

A Ping, with a bit of cinnabar on his eyebrows, looks like a little fuwa, sitting in the center of the mat, looking left and right, and finally crawls towards the candied fruit, grabs it and puts it in his mouth.

Everyone laughed, and Xiao Yu said, "It really is a snack. It's very good. It means that you have good food and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. Catch another one, Ah Ping."

A Ping looked at him, crawled towards him, and grabbed a wooden ruler in front of Xiao Yu.

Lai Feng was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, he looked at Xiao Yu with restraint.

Xiao Yu hugged A Ping and said with a smile, "It's good to have a ruler. It shows that we, A Ping, have a measure in our hearts, and we will be a fair and just person in the future."

Lai Feng knows that the ruler does not actually mean this. It can be interpreted as measuring the world, or it can represent the establishment of norms. No matter how you explain it, the meaning is excellent.

Xiao Yu tapped the tip of A Ping's nose with his hand: "A Ping is one year old, I wish us A Ping a safe and healthy growth, it would be better if we could talk earlier."

Sitting in Xiao Yu's arms, A Ping yawned and began to fall asleep.

Xiao Yu then said: "I'll take Ah Ping to take a nap, you guys should put away your things."

After taking a nap and waking up, Xiao Yu found that A Ping, who usually woke up earlier than him, was still sleeping, so he pulled the thin quilt for him, and found that the child's face was a little red, was it too hot?

He reached out and touched A Ping's forehead, and found that it was terribly hot. He was a little flustered, and A Ping had a fever.

Aping is a worry-free child. The little guy has never had a single illness since he came to Yazhou, and he has adapted very well.

This was the first time he had a fever, Xiao Yu got up quickly, and said to Pei Linzhi who was copying the book before the case: "Rinzhi, Ah Ping has a fever."

Pei Linzhi put down his pen and turned around: "Is the fever serious?"

"It's very hot, what should I do?" Xiao Yu hurriedly rubbed the handkerchief to give A Ping a cold compress.

Pei Linzhi also came over and touched A Ping's forehead: "It's really hot. He's never been sick, why is he sick today?"

Xiao Yu said nervously: "I don't know either. Should I send him to the hospital?"

Pei Linzhi looked at the sky outside, it was still raining: "There is only a large open car at home."

Xiao Yu said, "You drive the car, I'll put on my coir raincoat and carry A Ping to the clinic."

Pei Linzhi said, "Okay, I'll go catch the car."
