Chapter 21: Divine Proverbs of the Lord of Radiance
If Dean solves the problem of [Prosthetics] before Xia Duo learns words, then Xia Duo can't find another person, and if Xia Duo learns words first, Dean will have to pay a high price if he wants to continue. Up.
didn't know whether he could afford it. Xia Duo guessed that he could not afford it, otherwise he would have been able to trade with other people long ago, and he would have become an official apprentice long ago.
……
After agreeing on the content of the transaction with Dean, Xia Duo eagerly asked Dean for advice. He needed to know the words too much. As long as he knew the words, his learning speed would be greatly improved.
Facing Chateau who asked to start teaching immediately, Dean didn't hesitate. He didn't believe Chateau could memorize all the words in a few hours. As long as he didn't remember to continue learning, he would at least get a chance to ask questions tomorrow. .
The slower Xia Duo learns, the more opportunities he will get to ask questions. At this moment, he hasn't deliberately delayed the idea, maybe he is confident enough to solve the problem of [Prosthetics] before Xia Duo learns words.
Dean turned around and took out a parchment bound booklet from the standard wooden box, and handed it to Xia Duo, "This is the "Sacred Proverbs of the Lord of Radiance" that I copied when I was studying writing, but because I didn't have the money to buy a new one. Blank notes, the first half has been scratched off by me, so you can learn the second half, there are all abnormal words."
Xia Duo took the parchment pamphlet, did not look at what was newly written in the front, but directly opened the pamphlet whose edges had been blackened from the center.
It may be that Chateau happened to turn to the "Sacred Proverbs of the Lord of Radiance." Dean did not turn it again, so he pointed to the text on that page face to face and read:
"Law is authority, and law maintains social order. Otherwise, the world will fall into chaos. The sacred motto of the Lord of Glory: The power of the law is unshakable, and it is taken for granted, just like the rising sun every day, all disputes and any crimes, Can be perfectly resolved in the law."
"Learn the law and integrate it into your life; every word and every word must be obeyed, so you will find a world in the meaning of the law. As long as you obey the law, there will be no justice for you to soar and there will be no justice; don’t doubt the decision of the superior In order to make the power of following precedents thrive, only then can Amanata’s powerful will be revealed to the world; sincerely serving the superior will be rewarded by him; however, evading responsibility will not escape severe punishment. "
Dean read one sentence, and Chateau repeated one sentence.
This kind of proverb is similar to Xia Duo's "The Analects of Confucius" before crossing. It is all the words of the great man and also shows a certain concept of the great man. This half of "Sacred Proverbs of the Lord of Radiance" should have been compiled by the Amanata Church, which can serve as a literacy reader and spread the faith subtly.
But Xia Duo's Three Views have already taken shape. His attitude towards these proverbs is more critical, and he uses his own three views to deconstruct these proverbs.
There are some proverbs that he actually disagrees with, but Xia Duo is not stupid enough to say it directly. The Naise people still take their faith very seriously, at least they will not arbitrarily arrange gods like the earth people.
This booklet is just that, and I read only half of it again, and I read it the first time soon.
Xia Duo feels that learning words like this is too inefficient. It's just rote memorization and no skill is required.
He has never seen such a character learning, even the ancients on the earth have dictionaries and dictionaries!
When he was learning to speak lingua franca with Neil before, he knew that there were scholars in the town who taught Nishite, which was expensive and was said to be learned through poetry.
I thought Mage Tower would be more advanced, such as special dictionaries, learning manuals, etc., but when I just read the second sentence before, Xia Duo asked Dean, no, at least Dean hadn’t heard of any dictionary.
Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. If he really learned words in this way, when would he have to learn?
Xia Duo feels it is necessary to compile a dictionary by himself. He still knows the principle of sharpening the knife and not cutting wood. Besides, having a dictionary by his side is convenient for reviewing at any time.
"Dean, come here first today. I want to buy a blank note. Some things are hard to remember with my head alone."
"No problem, as long as you need it, you can always find me."
Seeing that Xia Duo stopped studying today, Dean was so happy that it was too late. He quickly got up to prepare to send Xia Duo, and Xia Duo was somewhat embarrassed. He just said that he wanted to buy notes and he hadn't got up yet, Dean. I can't wait to send him away.
"Forget it, I'm leaving, what questions you want to ask tomorrow, let me know first, and I will tell you after dinner."
Dean immediately said his question, and then gave Xia Duo a suggestion——
"When you buy a blank note, it is best to go to the material application office, which is brand new. If you buy it from other apprentices at a cheaper price, then the inner pages of the note must be scraped so that only the last chance to write is left."
"Okay, I remember your question, and thank you for your suggestion, I'm leaving."
Actually, Xia Duo didn't even think about buying blank notes from other apprentices. If you don't have any channels when you first arrived, you might get scammed, as Dean said.
A brand-new parchment paper is normally thick enough to scrape 5 times, which means that a piece of paper has 5 chances to write. Whether it is to correct mistakes or reuse, the new one is definitely better than the used one. ~www.readwn.com~ Most of the materials claiming offices for the Master Tower are in the public level, such as claiming office No. 3 where I used to receive apprentice wooden boxes. This time Xia Duo is going to claim office No. 1. He asked Taring, basic materials such as parchment, ink, and matches are applied for or purchased at the No. 1 application office.
And more advanced things like experimental materials need to be applied for or purchased at other application offices.
Take the elevator to the public floor in a familiar way. On the way, Xia Duo didn't see a few apprentices walking outside, until there were more talents near the No. 1 Material Application Office.
But almost all of these people are in a hurry, and they don't want to waste time at all.
Occasionally, two people talked quietly, and they stopped deliberately when Xia Duo passed by, and then stared at him until he left. This anti-thief behavior made Xia Duo quite unhappy.
I arrived at the No. 1 claim office. The layout inside was like a grocery store. Two "unnamed" apprentices behind the counter were entertaining to count and sort the materials on the shelves behind.
"Uh-hello, are there any blank notes for sale? How much?"
Hearing Chateau’s questioning, an apprentice turned around and said: "100 pages of blank notes 15 gold coins, a single parchment paper 2 silver coins, how much?"
As soon as I heard that the blank note required 15 gold coins, Xia Duo's heart suddenly became cold. He now only has 27 silver coins in his body, and the salary of the wizard tower is only 1 silver coin a day.
If I want to buy a blank notebook, I have to work for at least 4 months, and the day lily will be cold. This is a hard-working apprentice without the support of his family and power!
If you buy parchment alone, the price of each piece will be one-third more expensive than the whole purchase. This is simply a slaughter!
