Changsun Chong also read a lot. During the time he was in contact with Suning, he felt more and more the gap between him and Suning, but he thought these gaps were not very big. But now it seems that such gaps have begun from the beginning. Suning followed his master to travel around the world and saw a lot of truths. He was born with a high wall courtyard and had never seen everything in the outside world, which was known from others' mouths or books.

How to make up for such a gap? The ancients said that reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is not unreasonable. How to make up for the huge gap with Suning? Changsun Chong felt unprecedented confusion...

The girl in yellow who was hostile to Suning just now was also shocked. She finally recovered and savored what Suning said. Her eyes looked at Suning became more and more strange...

Kong Yingda was old and read a lot. He was a descendant of the Kong family, so he had a deeper understanding of these words. Every word Suning said was deeply engraved in his mind. He was completely shocked by these words. What kind of peerless masters could understand such a truth? When he was studying, he felt some doubts and questions. He wanted to make some new answers. However, as a descendant of Confucius, he always took it as his responsibility to maintain the orthodoxy of the Kong family, and believed that change was to disrespect his ancestors. Out of respect for his ancestors, he did not dare to act disrespectful to his ancestors, so he did not make any changes.

But Suning's words shake his faith. Yes, his heart said to him that Suning's words are right. Reading is not for reading itself, but for learning the spirit of his ancestors, and making changes based on what his ancestors have learned to surpass his ancestors! Only when one generation surpasses one generation can the nation prosper and the country have hope. If you just blindly study the works of the ancients and believe in the works of the ancients, how can you make progress? Is it the right truth?

Kong Yingda was suddenly awakened, and the shackles that had troubled him for many years no longer existed for a moment. Kong Yingda suddenly felt unprecedented ease. His eyes were bright, dark clouds dissipated, and the sun shone in full bloom. Everything was so fresh and natural. It turned out that he had always made such mistakes, such a foolish and terrible mistake! He had been immersed in the achievements of his ancestors, and had never thought about continuing the glory of his ancestors and continuing the unfinished careers of his ancestors!

Suning suddenly felt that Kong Yingda had some different changes. Kong Yingda's eyebrows seemed to be less melancholy and more calm. What's wrong with this old man?

Kong Yingda came back to his senses, his eyes clear, he looked at Suning and smiled: "I really didn't expect that the problem that has troubled me for many years has been solved by you. Although your life experience is unfortunate, it is also a blessing in disgrace. Master is a master who is not born in the world, and I am far from it! I have been studying for fifty years but have not realized such a truth. I am always shallow in my knowledge. I must practice it myself and make my master's knowledge fascinating!

Unfortunately, the teacher of Ling has already gone west. Otherwise, I will definitely abandon all my official positions and join the teacher of Ling. Even if I do a chore to serve tea and water, I just need to listen to the teacher of Ling at all times. This life is enough! Sanming, what you have learned is comparable to my knowledge and judge the superiority of the lower level. I cannot teach you anything else, otherwise it will harm you. What I can do is to consolidate your knowledge and teach you some principles of self-cultivation and self-cultivation. I am powerless to do anything else."

Kong Yingda sighed deeply, walked back to the podium, and said to more than 40 students who were unsure of their minds: "Today's Sanming words, you need to keep in mind. You must know that you will never be able to understand what you get on paper. You must never stick to book knowledge. Just as Sanming said, book knowledge is only knowledge. What you need in the future is real knowledge and truth. Knowledge cannot become knowledge without experience.

You should also know that the purpose of studying is not to deal with me, not to deal with you and your parents, nor to deal with your Majesty, but to wait for what you have learned. If you come from a wealthy noble family, you will definitely become a high-ranking official in the Tang Dynasty in the future. As the saying goes, God will give great responsibilities to this person, you must first suffer his mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, and be empty of his body. If you act in chaos, you will be moved and endure your nature and increase your ability. I hope you will remember what you said today and do it yourself."

Kong Yingda said something big, and all the students woke up and bowed deeply to Kong Yingda: "Disciple understands." They were also quite uneasy. Today will be the most unforgettable day in their hearts.

"Sanming, I have nothing to give to you, but you have never read those enlightenment books, can you read literacy?" Kong Yingda suddenly thought of a very important question: If you don't read books, don't read enlightenment books, can you read literacy? If such a genius who is invincible and cannot read literacy, it would be a strange story for all ages...

Suning nodded: "Of course I can read."

Kong Yingda became interested: "How do you learn to read without reading books or enlightenment books?"

Suning thought about the kindergarten preschool class and the first and second grades of elementary school. I remembered that Chinese Pinyin! I haven’t used it for many years. Chinese Pinyin is an absolute good helper to read literacy! It is also a magical tool for making Mandarin. No matter what its original purpose was, it has been proven to be a very effective and good helper to read literacy.

So Suning said: "It is a word that is known in pinyin."

"Pinyin?" Kong Yingda suddenly fell into Sparta. Why did this kid say anything casually that I had never heard of? Could this be the master's knowledge? Alas! I am indeed a frog in a well, and he speculated on his own knowledge, and he was guilty of being a master! Sin!

Suning nodded: "Yes, pinyin, Master said it was compiled after decades. He said that what we said is all characters and can be written. The pronunciation of these characters is regular. For example, some characters are pronounced very similarly, fighting, adults' big, developed, and matching. In fact, it sounds like different tones, but they are actually the same type of sound.

The master seemed to refer to a language from the west, and then used the knowledge of music to pinyin for all the words that can be written. Therefore, when I was young, I had never read books, but I had seen many words that Master marked with pinyin, or poems, long and short sentences, and some famous quotes. First, I remember the pronunciation of those words, and then gradually removed the pinyin. Finally, all pinyin was removed and the assistance of pinyin was removed, so the disciple would be completely literate. As long as there was a pinyin, even if I didn’t know that word, I would read it.”

Kong Yingda widened his eyes, and more than forty boys and girls were also extremely shocked. Their brains were too stimulating this day, so their brains were a little unacceptable. After all, Kong Yingda had seen the world, so he quickly regained his rationality and asked: "The language of the extreme west? There is still music?"

For a long time in ancient times, probably from the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chinese people used the method of reading characters to read two characters by tangentially. The so-called tangentially means using two characters to combine the pronunciation of another character, the upper character takes its initial consonant and the lower character takes its final consonant and tone. For example, "Red, Hulunji", the initial consonant h of "Hu" and the final consonant and tone of "Zang" are spelled into hóng, which is the pronunciation of "Red", but this method of literacy is inaccurate, with low popularity and low efficiency. The premise of literacy is to recognize literacy, which is not suitable for comprehensive promotion. As for the straight-sounding method used before, it is even more inappropriate.

The earliest appearance of Pinyin was in the late Ming Dynasty. The initial Pinyin was created by foreigners to facilitate communication with China. As for the purpose of the Chinese Pinyin at the beginning, it was to abolish Chinese characters. This was the idea proposed by some over-the-top intellectuals in the late Qing Dynasty. They believed that Chinese characters were independent of the Ethnic languages, which was the reason why China was backward. Lu Xun even claimed: "If Chinese characters are not destroyed, China will die!" A large number of intellectuals thought this was right, so they began to create new Chinese characters similar to Western Romanized Latinized characters.

But how can China's five thousand-year tradition be eliminated? Chinese characters are independent of the world. Can China still create world miracles and stand at the top of the world for a long time? What is the relationship between China's destruction and Chinese characters? Suning did not understand, and the old man even scolded those intellectuals who tried to abolish Chinese characters as "forget their ancestors"; but in a sense, this is a movement that the Chinese people hope to catch up with the world trend, so it did not stop, but continued to develop. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country began to prepare for new Chinese characters more vigorously. Chinese Pinyin came into being, but soon, people discovered that Chinese characters could not be replaced by the Chinese people; after the reform and opening up, the abolition of Chinese characters was abandoned, and Chinese Pinyin, as a widely promoted literacy auxiliary system, was widely praised.

Suning said: "Yes! Master seems to have said that the reason why Master wanted to create pinyin at the beginning was because he considered the suffering of people in different places to communicate with each other and the difficulty of literacy. Teacher, you think, our Tang Dynasty is so big, right! The accents and ways of speaking between Jiangnan and Jiangbei are very different, and communication between Jiangnan and Jiangbei seems to be very difficult.

The accents of Jiangnan and Jiangbei also include our Guanzhong dialect, Shuzhong dialect, Shandong dialect, and Hebei dialect. The accents close to the Turks are even somewhat like Turkish dialect. Often, people from one region can’t find people who can communicate smoothly when they go to another region. They can speak, read, and write, but they can’t understand what they say to each other. Isn’t this the same as deaf? This also seriously affects the communication between regions.

So Master wondered whether it was possible to create a common accent that was shared in the world, which was different from the dialect of any place. Because using dialects from any place to share the accent of the world is disrespectful to other places and it is easy to cause local disputes. Master’s idea is that there is no need to abolish the local accent, and the villagers can still say their own local accent, but people from different regions communicate with each other, so that they can communicate smoothly and do not affect the importance of the local accent.

Although the Tang Dynasty currently uses Guanzhong accent as a mandarin, the disciples think this is a disrespect for the people of other places, which makes us Guanzhong people too domineering and not conducive to the unity of the Tang Dynasty. Especially in the border areas, the situation is complicated and the Han and Hu are mixed together, which is even more complicated. There is an accent that can be understood by the entire Tang Dynasty, which is the best."
