At the same time, in a remote village near Yuezhou City, a group of people were doing farm work. Not far away, in a thatched hut, a young man in tattered clothes was mumbling to himself.
"Da Niu, it's time to eat. What are you doing squatting there?"
A slightly plump woman with a headscarf walked out of the thatched hut. She saw her son counting something in front of the hut and could not help but ask.
Seeing that Da Niu did not respond, the woman walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder. "Da Niu, what are you counting in front of the hut? Hurry up and eat. Your father will be back from the fields soon. "
The woman called out to him for a long time, but Da Niu did not respond. He just stared at the hut and mumbled, "One, two, no …"
Seeing this, the woman thought to herself, "What's wrong with Da Niu? Ever since he came back from the city, it's like he's been possessed. He's been counting in front of the hut every day!"
At this moment, Da Zhuang's father, who had just finished his farm work, came back with a group of farmers. He shouted from afar, "Wife, is the food ready? I'm starving!"
The woman went up to them and said, "Da Zhuang's father, something happened. Da Zhuang is sick!"
When Da Zhuang's father heard this, he immediately asked anxiously, "What happened? What happened? "
He then looked at Da Zhuang who was counting and shouted, "Da Zhuang! Da Zhuang! "
However, no one said anything for a long time. This made Da Zhuang's parents very anxious. When the neighbors saw Da Zhuang's situation, they immediately exclaimed, "Your child is like this too? My child is like this too. He ran to the hut early in the morning to count something. He doesn't even respond. I think he's been possessed! "
"That's right, that's right. What's going on? He became like this when he came back from the city yesterday! "
The group of people continued to discuss this matter. At this moment, a doctor walked over from not far away. He saw that the villagers were discussing something and went forward to see what was going on. "The doctor said," You're right.
When Da Zhuang's parents and neighbors saw the doctor coming from afar, they immediately shouted, "Doctor! Doctor, quickly come and see what's wrong with the child. What's going on? "
Lang Zhong glanced at Da Zhuang who was counting and sighed. "There's no need to look, it's all like this. Whether it's your village or Yue State City, it's all the same. “
"What? Are they all like this? "
"Could it be that Yue Zhou City and the village are infected with the plague?"
"Are all the children possessed?"
Seeing this, Lang Zhong continued, "You may not know, but this is a test that the headmaster of White Deer Academy personally came up with.
"What? A pheasant and a hare in the same cage? What is a pheasant and a rabbit in the same cage? "
"That's right. No wonder the child was suddenly possessed!"
Everyone fell into a state of discussion. Lang Zhong said, "Everyone please calm down. I'm not too clear on the specifics, I've only heard it from others. I only know that the Dean of White Deer Academy wants to recruit students, so he specially set up a test. If someone can answer it, then they can be admitted.
"What kind of question is this? Why did the Dean of White Deer Academy set this question? "
"Since he wants to open an academy, why did he set this question?"
Everyone began to discuss, not understanding the intentions of the Dean of White Deer Academy. Lang Zhong could not help but say, "You may not know, but White Deer Academy doesn't accept everyone. Could it be that those fools could also enter? So there must be a reason why he set up this question. "
"I see, but how much does it cost to enter White Deer Academy?"
"That's right, that's right. We commoners don't earn much money anyway!"
"In recent years the Zhuang family's harvest has not been good, I wonder if the school fees are expensive or not!"
Lang Zhong shook his head. "I'm also not sure. I only know that the Dean of White Deer Academy does not charge any fees for enrollment. Everything is free. If you have a skill, after you graduate, you can even find a position in the court. Not only do you not have to spend money, you can also earn money."
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd burst into an uproar. They looked at Lang Zhong in disbelief. They could not believe that there was such a good thing in this day and age!
"Doctor, is what you said true?"
"Is it true that you can earn money without spending money?"
"It can't be fake right? Is there really such a good thing waiting for us commoners? "
At this time, everyone expressed their own opinions, gradually gathering around Lang Zhong. They looked at Lang Zhong expectantly, wanting to know the truth of this matter. Lang Zhong's forehead was covered with sweat. "I don't know much about this matter, but I heard it from a storyteller in a little teahouse in Yuezhou City. All the commoners of Yuezhou City know about this matter. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask."
After everyone heard this, they were incomparably excited. The Dean of White Deer Academy really thought about the commoners. Not only did they not have to pay money, they could even find a position in the court to earn money. For such a good thing to fall into the hands of the commoners, just how much good fortune did they accumulate in their previous life?
Immediately bidding farewell to Da Zhuang and the others, they returned home to prepare for their children's journey to Chang 'an White Deer Academy.
