Everyone stayed in Shouchun City for several days.
It takes a long time, but it's not too boring.
Wenying Pavilion turned a blind eye to the control of the D-shaped Fang area, which resulted in the master not mastering the real skills, and most people could sneak in.
Zhang Cigong followed Zhang Xuezhou, Zhao Liang and others and stayed in Wenying Pavilion for three days, until they were kicked out because they looked too familiar.
“It’s a pity that I don’t know many words!”
Zhang Xuezhou looked resentful.
Zhang Xuezhou has limited attainments in Chinese characters. Although he is not illiterate, he still does not know many characters.
Zhao Liang's level is slightly higher, but the level is limited.
As for Zhang Cigong, he only entered Wenying Pavilion to look at the little figures carved on the bamboo slips. There were few characters that he could identify.
The twenty-four rooms of the T-shaped house involve hundreds of bookshelves, filled with a dazzling array of classics.
For those who have never practiced or have limited practice, this is a treasure mountain.
Even for practitioners who have reached a certain level of practice, this can also be used as a place for reference, so as to become familiar with some basic common sense of various sects.
But the gains of the three of them were not too high.
"I want to learn Chinese characters," Zhang Cigong said with a sad face.
He used to think that the people of the Beast Control Sect despised him, tortured him, looked down on him, and didn't even give him a future.
This made Zhang Cigong hate the ruthlessness of the Beast Control Sect in his heart.
But after personally entering Wenying Pavilion to read the cultivation classics, Zhang Cigong understood how serious his problem was.
Without enough knowledge, he could only ask others to teach him step by step.
Without a certain degree of intimacy, it is almost impossible for him to be taught by others.
And this also requires the instructor's cultivation and knowledge to be high enough to provide guidance to an illiterate person.
At best, he is just a lucky person. He only has an entry seed, and other than that, he has no bonus points at all.
"Brother Xuezhou, how did you learn to read and practice?" Zhang Cigong asked in a low voice.
"I was so miserable back then!"
Zhang Xuezhou has insufficient attainments in Chinese characters, but he is very good at Holy Land characters.
Not only can he speak fluent Holy Land language, he can also read and write Holy Land script.
Under Hong Ku's squeezing teaching, he completed the recognition of a language in just one month.
If all goes well, their trip to the north will end within two months.
This period of time is not long, and if we exclude the time for Zhang Xuezhou to return to the real world, the time is even shorter.
But Zhang Xuezhou was not prepared to waste it. After all, he had the idea of learning Chinese characters before, and now it would be nice to have Zhang Cigong learn it.
"Who is he?"
Zhang Xuezhou and Zhang Cigong took Dong Zhongshu to learn calligraphy. While Dong Zhongshu happily taught him, Jinchang began to discover Dong Zhongshu's identity.
The Jinchang that Dong Zhongshu saw before was not what he looks like now, and the Dong Zhongshu that Jinchang knew in the past was not the current Du Accountant.
Both of them have changed their appearance, and their respective abilities are not easy to use because of each other's physical hazards.
Even what the two of them were doing at this time was very different from what they had done in the past.
Dong Zhongshu became a merchant accountant, while Jinchang became an idle wanderer.
Under such circumstances, it was difficult for both Jinchang and Dong Zhongshu to guess the identity of the other party.
When Zhang Xuezhou finished learning the calligraphy, Jinchang found it difficult to confirm and went directly to Zhang Xuezhou to ask in a low voice.
"He is the leader of a large school of thought," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Don't lie to me," Jinchang said dissatisfied: "I have never seen the leader of any school come to work as an accountant!"
"Look, you don't believe anything I say," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Change another clue," Jinchang urged.
"He is a high official of the imperial court," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"..."
Jinchang rolled his eyes at Zhang Xuezhou, feeling that Zhang Xuezhou's clues were simply insulting his IQ.
It is impossible for the leader of a school to work as a bookkeeper in a business group, and it is even less possible for a court official to do so.
"Okay, his real name is Su Fang. He is the leader of the beast control school. He was injured when the imperial court wiped out the sect," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"It turns out to be the monkey sect leader of the dog-raising sect!"
Jinchang was slightly satisfied with this answer and felt that he also knew why Dong Zhongshu and others wanted to escort him forward.
"Who is that monk with the unhappy face?"
At night, Dong Zhongshu couldn't help but ask the same question.
He observed Jinchang for several days and had many conversations with Jinchang. He felt that Jinchang was very knowledgeable and was not an unknown person.
But in Dong Zhongshu's memory, there is indeed no such a number one figure.
"He is a wanted criminal by the imperial court," Zhang Xuezhou whispered.
"Don't lie to me," Dong Zhongshu said dissatisfied: "I have heard about most of the top cultivators wanted by the imperial court, and I have a general understanding of some of the connections between these people, but I have never seen him like this."
"What I said is true!"
"He won't let you say your real name?"
"If you are willing to let me go to his place and reveal my identity, then I can also tell you his name!"
"Forget it, I can't reveal my identity!"
Dong Zhongshu waved his hand.
His current journey north deviated significantly from the planned route for carrying out the imperial mission.
If possible, Dong Zhongshu hopes that as few people as possible will know his true identity.
If the identity mentioned by Zhang Xuezhou is true, it would be extremely inappropriate for him to place such information in the hands of a wanted criminal.
However, Jinchang and Dong Zhongshu had their own expressions, but they did not stop at confirming each other's identities.
"I remember that the leader of the dog-raising sect was relatively older, which does not match the age of this Du Accountant!"
"Just remind me of the wanted criminal's name a little bit, just a little bit. I'm already in a miserable state now. If I get connected with the wanted criminal and someone discovers it, it will be another troublesome thing!"
The quilt that had been given three days of Bigu Powder had been in Room A for five days, and Zhang Xuezhou and others had also been waiting for five days.
Zhang Xuezhou, Zhao Liang, and Zhang Cigong went to Wenying Pavilion to take shelter in the first three days, but they did not take shelter in the next two days.
Perhaps it was due to curiosity in their hearts, or perhaps it was due to their hidden secrets when discussing with each other, or perhaps it was due to the sensitivity of the monks, the doubts in Jinchang and Dong Zhongshu's hearts did not decrease, but increased accordingly.
Caught between the two, Zhang Xuezhou was helpless.
He didn't know how the two people would react after knowing their respective identities, but Jinchang had clearly warned Zhang Xuezhou not to reveal his identity.
For Jinchang, both the Han Dynasty's wanted order and his past actions had caused a lot of trouble.
If true information is revealed, Jinchang will encounter unpredictable consequences.
As for Dong Zhongshu's secret trip and not wanting to reveal his identity, he had already made an agreement with Zhang Xuezhou and others.
"How about we play a shooting game!"
Being among these two people, Zhang Xuezhou hoped for the first time that the seven-day deadline would come earlier, so that he would not have to be in the entangled temptations and inquiries of the two, but could go back to reality and hide in peace.
Amidst the endless questioning, Lei was getting closer and closer to Dewen Yingge.
Once they learn from Lei Fu whether Wenying Pavilion has the answer to Huang Lao's technique, Dong Zhongshu and Jinchang will obviously face different choices.
If Wenying Pavilion has the corresponding secret code, the two of them will definitely find a way to enter the A-shaped room.
But without the secret code, the two of them would be in another situation.
There are even possible collaborations and possible conflicts.
This also made the two of them question Zhang Xuezhou even more closely.
Zhang Xuezhou had to borrow four urns from the inn and called the two of them over.
"How do you want to play?" Jinchang asked.
"Shooting riddle?"
Dong Zhongshu also had doubts.
After Zhang Xuezhou took the bamboo pieces, wrote words on them and put them into two covered urns, and put unwritten bamboo pieces into two more urns, the colors on their faces changed.
"This urn has a reminder of Du Gou's true identity. This urn has a reminder of Du Gou's true identity. There are no words written on the two bamboo pieces inside. Look at it. I'm going to turn the urn. When the time comes, you will get yours.
Whether it is the identity plate or the other party's identity plate all depends on God's will. It doesn't matter if you get an empty one." Zhang Xuezhou said: "After this matter is over, don't disturb me, the middleman!"
"Okay," Jinchang said with a frown.
"also!"
Dong Zhongshu nodded.
He glanced at Jinchang and saw Jinchang looking over as well.
Obviously, the two of them are behind bars and are extremely wary of outsiders, but they also need each other's help.
When they persuaded Lei to go to Wenying Pavilion for investigation, Dong Zhongshu and Jinchang each had a discussion, but the discussion did not end, but became more urgent as time passed.
Later, he found out that two waves of people from Zhang Xuezhou's team had died, and Jinchang did not want to get involved in trouble.
The same was true for Dong Zhongshu, who even had the idea of seeking help.
The two looked at each other, while Zhang Xuezhou took out a cloth to cover the four urns and kept rotating them.
When the covering cloth was removed, both of them reached out to grab the urn.
When they saw the bamboo pieces in the urn, the faces of Dong Zhongshu and Jinchang couldn't help but change colors at the same time.
