Chapter 859: Prepare to Glory to the Ancestors
Chapter 859: Prepare to Glory to the Ancestors
Ever since Xiao Han and Shui Wuhen, now Zhang Yaozu and Zhang Ruoyun, were able to speak clearly, they had discussed their current situation.
Whether they have been reincarnated or are just in a special illusion space has been discussed several times.
However, until now, the two are still not sure what their current situation is.
The only thing that is certain is that this is a land of mortals, and immortals only exist in myths.
As for whether there is spiritual energy and whether it can be cultivated, they are still unsure.
The tiny bodies of children contained two old monsters that were over a thousand years old, which naturally made them out of tune with other children of the same age.
Xiao Han, who has traveled through time too many times, has a relatively good mentality. With the attitude of making the best of things, he follows Yuan around like a little tail all day long, which makes Yuan like this grandson even more.
The soul of an adult dwelling within him naturally made Xiao Han's speech and actions sometimes seem mature, but in the eyes of his family, this was a sign of intelligence and prodigy.
In comparison, the taciturn Shui Wuhen is not so dazzling.
On this day, Zhang Haishan went out to purchase goods, Lin was busy in the backyard, and Yuan was guarding the shop in the front with her two children.
At this time, a man came to the grocery store and bought several things. When Yuan was calculating the bill, he found that he had missed three copper coins.
Xiao Han hurriedly said, "Grandma, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, there's not enough money."
Yuan was stunned. Lin came over from the backyard at that moment. She recalculated and found that she had indeed shortchanged the money by three cents.
The customer who was buying something was surprised and said, "This child is so young, but he can do math. Is he a child prodigy?"
Yuan immediately picked up Xiao Han and said happily, "Oh my dear, what a smart child! It seems that he will really bring honor to our family in the future."
Xiao Han was shocked. If bringing honor to the family was Grandma Yuan's wish, then she would fulfill Grandma Yuan's wish and let her life from now on be full of hope and happiness.
I used to be a little troubled sometimes. I have a man’s body but a woman’s heart. What should I do when I grow up?
Now she no longer thinks about this problem. She wants to take advantage of her male body to study hard and make achievements.
She wanted to make Grandma Yuan proud of her.
So, when Zhang Haishan came back from purchasing goods, Xiao Han solemnly announced during the family dinner that she wanted to study for the imperial examination.
And enlightenment begins now.
The characters of the Dayong Dynasty are very similar to the traditional Chinese characters of ancient China on Earth.
This made Xiao Han wonder for a moment whether she had traveled back to ancient China.
However, there is no such dynasty as the Dayong Dynasty in Chinese history. Because she was too young, she had no access to historical books about this dynasty. Through chatting with her father, she only knew that the Dayong Dynasty was preceded by the Dayzhao Dynasty.
These are obviously not dynasties in Chinese history.
But maybe it is a parallel universe similar to ancient China.
But no matter what, at least traditional Chinese characters are not a completely new type of writing. She can understand and read them and learn them faster.
The three adults in the Zhang family were naturally well aware of the two children's precocity.
Which parent doesn't want their son to become a successful person? Since the ancestral grave is smoking and a child is born, the parents will naturally raise him well.
Zhang Haishan only knew a few words and could do some accounting, so it was impossible for him to teach Xiao Han at home.
Shui Wuhen was not jealous of Xiao Han's decision to study and take the imperial examination.
He has now begun to try to create a new method of tempering the soul. Once he can really strengthen his soul, he will use the powerful power of the soul to influence others, making them unconsciously influenced by him and obey him. This is also a way to save his life.
Even if all this is actually living in a very real fantasy, he does not want to face the trouble of being forced to get married when he grows up.
However, he did not recognize the characters here, so he would have to learn from Xiao Han in the future.
Although Zhang Haishan felt that his son was still too young, his son spoke like a little adult, with good reasoning and logic, saying things like one must win at the starting line and become famous as early as possible.
The earlier she becomes known as a child prodigy, the easier it will be for her family to support her studies.
Zhang Haishan was persuaded and decided to take her to the only private school in town to meet the teacher.
Xiao Han actually thought about using the knowledge he had gained from living in several interfaces to help this poor family make money.
But after thinking about it, she found that she could do nothing.
She doesn't know any of the ways that those time-traveling protagonists on Earth use to make money.
The knowledge from the world of immortal cultivation cannot be used here.
You can't just draw talismans and catch ghosts and become a Taoist priest, right?
Therefore, the real way to make money is to use her adult thinking and brain to study for the imperial examinations and achieve class crossing.
The town where Xiao Han and his friends live now is called Baixi Town.
There was an old scholar in Baixi Town who opened a private school to provide education for children from wealthy families in the town or nearby.
Zhang Haishan carried a bag of cakes and took Xiao Han to see the old scholar.
The main reason why Xiao Han was not directly sent to Shu Xiu to study was that he was too young and the old scholar might not be willing to teach him.
If you bring him over and let the old scholar see with his own eyes how precocious his son is, he might be willing to teach him.
After all, what teacher doesn’t want to teach smart students?
Xiao Han skipped away like a real child. Shui Wuhen pretended to sleep, then closed the door and continued his work of transforming the mortal version of the Divine Tempering Skill at home.
The old scholar's surname was Li. When he heard that Zhang Haishan wanted to enlighten the little kid around him who was only about two years old, his face suddenly darkened and he was about to refuse.
A two-year-old child probably needs help from adults even when pooping and peeing, and can't even speak clearly, so how can he read books?
Without waiting for him to refuse, Xiao Han immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said, "I am Zhang Yaozu, nice to meet you, sir. Although I am still young, I have always been smart. If I pass the imperial examination in the future, I will definitely bring honor to you, sir, and make you a famous disciple and a famous teacher."
Scholar Li was stunned. Did the child say such arrogant and shameless words on his own, or did the adults make him memorize them?
Old Monster Xiao, who has lived for over a thousand years, has a thicker skin than a city wall. She had no intention of being humble and continued.
"If you don't believe me, sir, you can teach me a sentence from a book on the spot. I guarantee that after reading it a few times, I'll be able to recite it by heart."
Zhang Haishan watched with a smile on his face, with no intention of stopping Xiao Han at all.
My son is a real child prodigy, and he understands this very well.
After all, she can learn arithmetic almost immediately, and can even do addition and subtraction within 100 in her head.
Mr. Li finally felt that this child was indeed a little different.
After all, a two-year-old child cannot memorize and repeat what he just said.
However, he still planned to test Xiao Han for real.
