"Are you still unwilling to go to the academy?"

"Um······"

"The chief of Luming Academy has an old age and I have good character, a righteous person, and has a good reputation. I think you can think about it again."

Zhou Gui put down a black chess piece and landed it on the chessboard. Then, he ate Zhou Xun a white chess piece.

"Lu Ming Academy is a mixture of men and women?"

Asking casually, Zhou Xun fell a piece at the corner of the chessboard.

"No, you're thinking too much. Luming Academy is not a girl's college, so it's even more impossible for men and women to get mixed up."

"The academy is a place to select talents for the country, not a place for young people to enjoy the snowy night. Luming Academy only accepts men, and has to pass the county examination. The government examination will be completed and will participate in the college examination in the first month of admission. Those who fail the examination will be dismissed."

As he said this, Zhou Gui and Zhou Xun fell seven or eight consecutive pieces, and Zhou Gui ate another piece of white pieces and circled a small piece of land.

Outside the pavilion, there is a sound of insects, accompanied by the unknown fragrance of flowers, which is light and far away, refreshing.

The chessboard is carved on the stone table, and the chess pieces are polished and smoothly placed in two small stone bowls.

It is in the pavilion, surrounded by a shade of trees, which is cool and refreshing.

This is near the temple. On the hill created by the earth veins last time, Zhou Xun found someone to build a pavilion on the shady back of the mountain.

Next to the pavilion is a lush forest mixed with many flowers.

I don’t know if it’s because of the divine power, but the trees transplanted here grow well, which shows that the ground is rich and the soil is fertile.

Looking out of the pavilion, you can see the temple at the foot of the mountain.

The temple is simple and grand, magnificent, and the buildings form a community with a rigorous layout.

The Feng Shui master I hired is also of good quality, so I probably wouldn't dare to fool gods in such a place. I have shown my skills to see my family and built such a temple.

Even if people who are not feng shui come to see it, they will see the extraordinary here.

In the eyes of those who know how to do things, the architectural community here has built a situation that suppresses Feng Shui fortune, which can sort out the earth's energy, eliminate evil and eliminate disasters, and can weaken the impact of natural disasters to a considerable extent.

In other words, the purpose of this Feng Shui bureau is to resolve the impact of various natural disasters, so that there are few disasters nearby... I dare not say that the yield has increased a little, the pests and diseases are less, and the drought and flood disasters will also be weaker.

Usually, the land temples, mountain temples and location layouts in various places will be considered in this regard. They use divine power to suppress the Feng Shui of a place, protect the earth's veins, sort out the silt of the earth's qi, and reduce the occurrence of various disasters.

If you look at the Feng Shui of a Yang house for a family, it will definitely not be the arrangement like this.

Ordinary families either seek wealth or official fortune, or ask for blessings from their children or grandchildren, or ask for longevity of the elderly...

The original intention was to focus on people, and the purpose was to be used by others. Every family wished to take up all the Feng Shui and not leave a slightest bit of it to others.

However·······

"Everything cannot be blamed completely, and cannot be forced to be perfect. The most taboo thing about Feng Shui is to take up all Feng Shui and leave no room for space."

"The momentum is too strong, and it will fade prematurely and leave no room for anything, and it will inevitably punish God. Taking all the Feng Shui and taking away all the fortunes, villains will inevitably fall into the evil path."

"Sixty years ago, the sorcerer Yu Hongming was known as the master of geography. He achieved enlightenment with Feng Shui. He traveled 156,000 miles, guided Feng Shui, and was kind to others. He accumulated more than ten thousand external skills. However, with a thought, he clicked the True Dragon, broke seventeen hidden dragons, took away all the geographical creations, and created the Ninety-Nine True Dragons ascended to heaven. He wanted to use this to jump into immortals and prove the True Lord. In the end, his efforts were lost and his external skills were ruined. Yu Hongming's moral decay was deprived of heinous sins, and he was punished by heaven, with sores on his back, and horns on his head, and all insects were devoured to the gods. After sixty days, both body and spirit were destroyed."

"The Feng Shui magicians in the world are all afraid, and thus establish 18 Feng Shui taboos, and take full advantage of Feng Shui as the first taboo."

"The lessons of the past are still in front of us. We must be more cautious and cautious, and we must not abandon harm to future generations. We do not seek merit, but seek no mistakes."

After hearing the Fengshui master's words, Zhou Gui agreed with him, so he chose his design to build this Guangyu Gong Mansion.

Now it seems that there is indeed real skill.

Even if Zhou Xun cannot pass through the spiritual eyes, he can know that the auspicious energy gathers around here and the evil energy is gone. Long-term residence can even regulate the human body and reduce the pain.

"But if you don't go to the academy, it will be a little trouble."

"During the provincial examination, you either get a reference quota from your academy and become a tribute student; or you have to register for another college examination, and you can only pass the examination to be qualified as a student."

"In fact, neither of these are easy."

"The quota of academies is limited every year, and only the best have the chance to be elected and participate in the provincial examination. When studying in the academies, there are several exams every month, and the assessment results must be recorded. Those who are just filling in the numbers will be screened out and returned to their original home."

"The hospital examination is even worse. I don't know how many old Tongshengs who have passed the hospital examination have squeezed in dozens of places, and the reference must be more than a thousand people."

Zhou Gui said this, thought for a while, and fell into a place.

Zhou Xun immediately followed and added Bai Zi. Bai Zi was in a bad situation and was faintly surrounded by Hei Zi.

Zhou Gui smiled and posted another dark spot.

After a few more moves, Zhou Gui took advantage of the situation to kill a large piece of white pieces, leaving a large piece of blank space.

Zhou Xun's chess power was obviously far inferior to his father, and he just struggled to maintain the situation.

Zhou Gui then spread some common sense to him.

"I haven't studied in academy, and I don't know that I have many advantages in academy."

"First of all, the teachers and classmates from all over the country, and have been studying in the academy for a few years. This is your connection."

"Don't underestimate this. Classmates and teachers are much more reliable than others. In the future, you will never be isolated and helpless. If you become an official, you will not be able to be an official for a long time. Everything you do will be hindered everywhere."

"Secondly, the academy's collection is counted in tens of thousands of volumes, which is all-encompassing. If your assessment is better every time, you will be allowed to study the collection."

"I used to learn Feng Shui, divination, merchants and business, etc. at Luming Academy."

"The Luming Academy has more than one million books, including isolated ancient books, stone carvings, and ancient inscriptions. Don't talk about miscellaneous books about Feng Shui, even real Taoist books are mostly available. But I didn't find it back then. If you have time, you can read it more, and you might be able to find a good Taoist book in a certain corner."

"There is another advantage that the academy provides many newspapers and articles, which are much more comprehensive and updated than the versions you can buy in the bookstore.

Inside the academy, it can also provide the name, origin, hobbies, taboos and prejudice of the chief examiner of the provincial examination, and even specialize in studying the preferences of the question setter, compile them into a book and list the key points.

This is very useful for exam preparation.

Don't underestimate this.

This gap may lead to failure, or a few places in the rankings will rise and fall."

"Now, do you understand the advantages of the academy?"

"You know, most juren from academy have always been able to make a difference, and they generally go further in their careers."

Zhou Xun was slightly distracted and ate another piece of white pieces. In the whole chess game, Zhou Xun only occupied a corner and maintained 30% of the territory. Overall, the defeat was certain.

Sighing, Zhou Xun gave up again in this game.

"The father said so, but my son has no other thoughts. Of course he has to go to the academy."

"That's good. I've already sent a letter to Luming Academy last month. I signed up for you to calculate the date. It's almost time to reply."

"There is no reason why you can't pass the results of your home test and the articles I sent."

"At that time, you can get the admission approval document, pack up and change your clothes, and you can go."

It turned out that Zhou Gui had prepared everything long ago and had never considered the situation of his son not going to the academy, so he even had to register for the academy.

Not only that, he even collected the poems and essays made by his son and sent them to the academy chief.

"Remember, students live in the academy and rest for one day a month. They cannot take their subordinates and cannot leave the academy at will."

"In the academy, you can ignore anything else, just concentrate on studying."
