Back then, when Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman was learning Chinese characters, pinyin hadn't even been invented yet. When he taught the savages Chinese characters, he taught them exactly how he had learned it in the past.
He did not even think of Pinyin. The savages were lucky not to be taught traditional Chinese characters.
"But … when I think about teaching these savages how to use Pinyin, I feel so annoyed. I'll give it a try first. If it doesn't work, I'll wait for Drunken Sun — no, wait for fellow daoist Drunken Moon to send me a language teacher, "Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman said.
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and added, "By the way, if you can't find a language teacher, Shuhang Little Friend, please send yourself over to me. You can also bring the Blood God Crystal over. This way, we can complete the deal, and you can help me teach the barbarians pinyin, okay? "
Song Shuhang was speechless.
Did I say something wrong? Why had he unknowingly dug a pit for himself again?
But from the beginning to the end, I kindly advised Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman to use pinyin to teach the barbarians Chinese characters.
No, I have to save myself.
Otherwise, what if Senior Drunken Star? If he couldn't find a suitable language teacher, Senior Seven Lives Talisman might really fly over overnight, wrap him in a blanket, and bring him to an isolated island in the middle of the sea to teach the barbarians the language.
As for Senior White, there was no need for him to help … Maybe he would find it fun and follow them to the island.
Song Shuhang felt that the possibility was too high. It was scary just thinking about it.
Especially when he accidentally turned his head to look at Senior White. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but when Senior White looked at the words' island 'and' savages', her eyes seemed to flicker with interest.
No, I must save myself!
Song Shuhang frantically racked his brain. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. "Senior Seven Lives, I have a clever way to learn pinyin. You can go online and look for it … You should be able to find the Chinese Pinyin Alphabet Song!"
"When the time comes, play it repeatedly for those savages. Play it in the morning, play it at night, play it when they're eating, play it when they're taking a dump. After a week or two, the barbarians should be able to grasp Hanyu Pinyin! "
"Not only that, I remember that humans who live in primitive tribes like to dance! Senior Seven Lives, find a few simple and easy dances from the Internet and turn this' Chinese Alphabet Song 'into a dance. Let them sing and dance when they wake up every morning. Also, let them dance more during activities to stimulate their interest! "
After typing the words above in one breath, Song Shuhang sighed inwardly.
I'm sorry, barbarian brothers … but there's nothing wrong with a brainwashing song. You can learn more by listening more. Coupled with the dance, it could even be done as a public square dance. It was really advanced! All the aunties in China were using it.
Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman's eyes immediately lit up. "Oh, oh, oh, there's still this move! Wonderful! Compared to rote memorization, songs are more catchy and easier to remember! "
Song Shuhang struck while the iron was hot, "Senior, after you teach the savages pinyin, it will be easy to learn Chinese characters. Also, Senior, I feel that when teaching the savages how to read, you can't just use the strict method of beating their palms and hanging them. We need to be clear about rewards and punishments. Even if there is punishment, there must also be rewards. This way, we can maximize the motivation of the savages to learn Chinese characters! "
Actually, Shuhang felt that calling them 'savages' was a bit inappropriate, but he couldn't think of a better word to replace it.
"Clear about rewards and punishments, that makes sense! Shuhang Little Friend deserves to be called a youngster, your brain is really bright. " Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman felt that Shuhang's words had touched his heart. He felt that this idea was really great. At the same time, he asked, "Regarding how to clear about rewards and punishments, can Shuhang Little Friend explain it more clearly?"
"Let's make an analogy. For example, the ones who master pinyin and Chinese characters the fastest can be rewarded with something that the savages like. For example, a good weapon? Fishing equipment? Some modern gadgets, lighters, and so on? "Song Shuhang said slowly," And the ones who learn the worst can also consider other methods of punishment, such as starving. He could also consider other forms of punishment, such as starvation. Compared to being hung up and beaten, perhaps for the savages, starving is more terrifying? Don't blindly hit them or hang them up and beat them. The more you use the same method of punishment, the less effective it will be. "
Savages that I've never met before … I can only help you up to this point. I hope that my suggestion will help you to suffer less physical pain in the future.
Compared to being hung up and beaten, being starved should be more acceptable, right?
"That makes sense, we can give it a try." Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman secretly nodded his head. At the same time, he said, "Moreover, I can give the savages a test. There will be a small test every three days, and a big test every five days. If they don't do well, they will be starved, and if they do well, they will be rewarded. In the future, I can also let them write essays, and if they don't do well, they will be hung up and beaten. Tsk, tsk, that's great! "
The corner of Song Shuhang's mouth twitched. In his mind, the image of a group of black uncles wearing animal skin clothes appeared, lying on the table, facing the 《Primary Year One Final Exam Paper》 or the essay question 《If I Were a Small Green Onion》 that Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman copied from the internet appeared, frowning as they wrote furiously.
He didn't expect that Senior Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman would think of 'test papers' and the tactic of writing a sea of questions. Unknowingly, it seemed that the savages' pain had increased?
Did I do something bad out of good intentions again?
Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman: "It feels great. I'll immediately give it a try to the savages. Let them listen to the Hanyu Pinyin Alphabet Song for ten or so days first. Shuhang Little Friend, I'll contact you when there's a result! [See you again while waving emoji] "
After saying this much, he impatiently went offline.
After Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman went offline, Beihe Sanren popped up: "[Wiping sweat emoji] These days, even paradise isn't necessarily a happy place."
Fairy Lychee: "Moreover, there's still a big problem … have you received any letters from Fellow Daoist Seven Lives in the past? His profession is a 'talisman master', and the words he writes are like scribbles. At that time, I had a hard time deciphering the words he wrote. If he also uses scribbles when teaching the natives how to read and write … I'll ask the natives how much of a shadow they have in their hearts. "
Medicine Master: "It's not easy for the natives either!"
Dharma King Creation: "Scholar Sober Star, you must find a good language teacher for the natives!"
"Sober Star? … It's not Sober Star, it's Drunken Moon! Last time, you only got one character wrong, but this time, you got both characters wrong! "Scholar Drunken Moon added a kneeling emoji.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Drunken Moon. Actually, I have a suggestion. How about you change your daoist name to Drunken Sun? I'm sure everyone will be able to remember it, "Dharma King Creation weakly replied.
"Drunken Sun can remember + 1" Fairy Lychee.
"Drunken Sun can remember + 2" Medicine Master — if it was just copying and pasting, Medicine Master's speed was pretty fast.
"Drunken Sun can remember + 3" Yellow Mountain Zhenjun.
Below, a row of seniors in the group followed suit.
Scholar Drunken Moon faintly sighed. He really wanted to tie up all the people in the group and throw them into the Pacific Ocean!
… …
… …
The corner of Song Shuhang's mouth twitched as he closed the Nine Provinces Number One Group's interface.
Then, he secretly sighed and said, "I hope the method I taught Senior Seven Lives is effective."
The nearby Venerable White smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it's effective or not. Actually, I really want to see how Senior Seven Lives teaches the natives how to read Chinese characters. I'm also interested in that isolated island."
As expected, Senior White's interest was piqued!
"Senior White! I have an even more fun place. In two days … a friend of mine invited me to a vacation island in the East China Sea. There's also a luxurious five-day cruise! Senior, are you interested? "Song Shuhang immediately changed Venerable White's target.
Otherwise, he was afraid that Senior White would bring him to Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman's place on a flying sword!
As expected, after Senior White heard about vacation island and luxurious cruise, she became interested.
"If it's a vacation island, are there roller coasters? The kind with ten rings or more? Skydiving? Pirate ship? Ferris wheel? Extreme windmill? "Senior White listed out many exciting projects in a row.
Why did all the projects Senior White listed were the type that would make people's legs go soft?
"Yes, there's everything! There's everything! "Song Shuhang patted his chest and guaranteed. There must be!
"Then let's go immediately!" Senior White narrowed her eyes and said.
"Senior White, there's no rush. We'll set off in two days … and we still have to wait for Doudou and the small monk to come back, "Song Shuhang replied.
"Doudou and the small monk?" Senior White asked, "Oh, you just mentioned that Doudou ran away from home again."
"Yes." Song Shuhang sighed.
"Alright, then let's wait for two days," Venerable White said reluctantly.
"Then it's settled. Senior White, let's have breakfast first. Then, since we have time today, I'll bring you to Mount Yuyu near Wenzhou City. It should be a bayberry picking festival soon. If there's an event, you can go in and pick them yourself. You should be able to eat as much as you want, "Song Shuhang said.
"Okay!" Venerable White's eyes lit up.
* * * * *
Song Shuhang and Venerable White talked as they walked to the kitchen to see if Mama Song had prepared breakfast for them.
In the kitchen.
Mama Song was making dumplings. When she heard footsteps behind her, she turned around.
"Good morning, Mom. We're having dumplings for breakfast! "Song Shuhang said.
"Yeah, I just made them. I don't know when you woke up, but I haven't put them in the pot yet. Song Bai, you're also awake. It's rare for you to get up early today, "Mama Song joked.
Venerable White nodded slightly and replied, "Good morning, little girl. You must be Shuhang Little Friend's mother. I got up early today!"
Little girl?
Is he calling me?! Mama Song was dumbfounded at first. Then, she gently smiled and said, "Shuhang, your friend's mouth has become so sweet after just one night."
Song Shuhang, "…"
Venerable White was confused, "?"
Did I say something wrong just now? Venerable White was confused. (To be continued.)
