This has been the case for hundreds of years.

As for the reason and where this awe-inspiring righteousness comes from, Yunshan Academy does not know.

Facing this, the most holy master who led the human race to real prosperity after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Kong Jijiu, Ning Chen and others put away all their emotions and worshiped the Confucian sage respectfully as disciples.

Ning Chen also respected this Confucian sage.

According to the history of this world, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors only brought the human race out of the mire of darkness.

Let humans have a place to live and escape the tragic situation of being reduced to food.

The emergence of Confucian sages completely reversed the decline of the human race.

Confucian sages opened schools, passed down their teachings, and enlightened the human race.

Allowing mankind to build one prosperous civilization after another.

The Confucian sage himself led three thousand disciples to fight in the north and south.

The barbarians, monsters, witches, savages, etc. were driven out of the human settlements one by one.

In the end, he led his disciples on the road to slaying gods and demons.

In the end, the Confucian saints did not return to the epidemic area, and the demons were also completely eliminated from heaven and earth.

It can be said that the Confucian sages have at least half of the credit for the current glory and prosperity of the human race.

After paying homage to the Confucian sage, Ning Chen and the others were taken to the living area inside the academy.

The living area of ​​Yunshan Academy is very large.

Its vastness is almost as large as two Forbidden City.

The reason why it needs to be so large is because Yunshan Academy has always maintained a number of disciples of about 10,000.

As for Yunshan Academy, the number of disciples outside is much greater than 10,000.

With so many people living together, their living area naturally needs to be very large.

The living area of ​​Yunshan Academy has no atmosphere at all.

Even in some restaurants and taverns, what comes out is not the hustle and bustle of the market, but the sound of Lang Lang reading.

Here there is only the sound of Lang Lang's reading, and these sounds of reading converge into wisps of awe-inspiring righteousness above the living area.

It is difficult to practice Confucianism and Taoism here without getting twice the result with half the effort.

Ning Chen didn't feel anything about this. Ning Chen really couldn't bear to have Ning Chen study here every day.

On the contrary, it was the other four people whose eyes were full of envy.

Ning Chen and the others were originally guests, so they were not arranged in the living area of ​​ordinary disciples.

Instead, they were arranged in the living area of ​​the academy teachers.

There are about two hundred teachers in Yunshan Academy.

The living conditions are much more comfortable than those of the disciples.

This is not because these teachers are greedy for enjoyment. On the contrary, these are donated by their disciples.

Just to show respect for teachers.

As for the daily meals of these disciples and teachers, etc., they are all transported up from the mountain.

There is no such thing as bigu in Confucianism and Taoism, so you still have to eat when you need to.

After the short and fat scholar settled Ning Chen and the others, Kong Jijiu was invited by the short and fat scholar to go to another place.

Ning Chen doesn't care where Kong Jijiu goes.

He glanced at the four colleagues in the same room, who were holding books in the room and looking at them in fascination.

Ning Chen opened the door and went out directly.

I came here to avoid the limelight, not to study hard.

"Don't talk about this great righteousness, you can still breathe quite smoothly." Ning Chen came outside the house, took two deep breaths, and murmured.

The teacher's living area was not much to see. After leaving the teacher's living area, Ning Chen went directly to the students' living area.

Looking at the students walking one by one, they all have words in their mouths.

Ning Chen felt that it should be photographed and then sent back to his own time. The title was the daily life of top academics.

Ning Chen thought it would be nice to just look at this kind of life, but it would be too miserable for him to live here.

After walking around for a while, I found a restaurant and went there. Ning Chen planned to find something to eat first.

Ning Chen didn't know whether Kong Jijiu could help with food loss, but he was really hungry now.

"To say that Confucians treat guests with courtesy and not even give them a bite to eat is a bit too much."

After finding a seat near the water and sitting down, Ning Chen found the waiter.

Pointing to the wooden sign hanging on the wall, Ning Chen ordered seven or eight dishes, and then asked for a bottle of wine.

"How much?" In order to prevent being ripped off by the Confucian businessmen, Ning Chen asked the price first.

"The total is three hundred taels." The waiter lowered his head and counted.

"What!"

"Why don't you go and grab it!"

Don't blame Ning Chen for being angry, the price is really too expensive.

Three hundred taels.

Ning Chen can have a meal at Lanxiang Pavilion and spend at most twenty or thirty taels on a banquet.

But here, Ning Chen ordered seven or eight ordinary dishes, and the wine was ordinary sake.

In other restaurants in Fengjing City, this table costs at most half a tael of silver.

The waiter saw that Ning Chen was anxious, but he was not angry. He objected to Ning Chen and asked, "Are you new here?"

"Just arrived today."

What about the new guy? The new guy can’t be the boss, right?

Hearing that Ning Chen was new here, the waiter patiently explained: "Sir, I don't know something. In Yunshan Academy, the prices of all dishes are linked to knowledge."

"Is there another saying?" This is the first time Ning Chen has heard of this saying.

But let's just be knowledgeable. I have finally entered the ninth level of Confucianism.

Ning Chen told the waiter about the fact that he had entered the ninth level of Confucianism and Taoism.

However, the waiter was just slightly polite, and then continued to explain: "Sir, the knowledge I am talking about is not Confucianism and Taoism. It is real talent.

At Yunshan Academy, talented people can eat and drink for free.

Those without talent will have trouble making progress except by paying a lot of money."

"Just tell me directly, how do you plan to test this talent?" Ning Chen was too lazy to listen to the waiter and continued to talk, so he simply asked.

The waiter pointed at the first couplet hanging above the dish and said: "Sir, all stores will use couplets to assess talent this month. As long as the gentleman comes up with a suitable second couplet, the meal price will be reduced accordingly."

.”

"These Confucian people really like these fancy things."

With some emotion in his heart, Ning Chen followed his gaze and looked at the first couplet.

There is no need to drink soup when the wine is hot.

"What the hell?" Ning Chen glanced at it and couldn't help but frown.

Ning Chenxing copied poems.

After all, after reading books for so many years, I have memorized too many famous articles and sentences.

But Ning Chen has never dabbled in couplets.

In addition to knowing that the number of words in the couplets must be the same, Ning Chen only knew that there was an even difference between them.

As for what is flat and which is square, Ning Chen doesn't even know.

"Sir, do you have a second line?" the waiter asked Ning Chen.

Ning Chen thought for a moment and said simply: "I have money."

Ning Chen just thought that he suffered the loss of being uneducated.

You can't go out in despair, you still have to face it.

But the waiter obviously didn't have such awareness.

Hearing Ning Chen say this, his face changed on the spot: "Sir, even if you have money, you still have to give me a second line. Even if this second line is not neat, it is still necessary."

When Ning Chen heard this, he said: "What do you mean by this, if I don't give a second line, I won't have anything to eat with my money?"
