"I can’t be with you forever. I came up with this way to pretend that you are my relative. I hope this intimacy will make them feel nervous. What do you think?"
Franklin actually thought of going with the students to plan such a way to cover up Norman’s talent and others to rob the students
Norman certainly didn’t know what Franklin really thought, but that didn’t prevent him from seeing something was wrong.
With his extraordinary observation ability, Norman noticed that Franklin’s face was pulled up deliberately even though he was serious when he spoke, but there was an unusual look in his eyes, which seemed to be … secretly pleased?
This obviously has nothing to do with what Franklin said.
There should be another real reason.
Norman thought of his head like this, but he nodded and followed Franklin’s words to say "OK"
Although we don’t know what the real reason is yet, Franklin said so, so he just did it. After all, Franklin now eats, lives and accepts him as a student. He can’t live without Franklin. He can do whatever Franklin tells him to do.
It’s also because Franklin didn’t know Norman’s real thoughts, or even he would blame himself for complicating simple things and thinking too much.
Norman promised to come to Franklin’s face, with a little smile and a look of secretly pleased eyes, which unified his true feelings.
"Well, after this matter is settled, you are my … nephew."
Then he went to sit behind the desk and asked Norman to move a chair to sit opposite him. "I think you still have a little talent for ancient sayings. Studying with those people will slow down your learning speed. After that, we will come here for one-on-one teaching every afternoon. On the one hand, it is convenient for you to learn ancient sayings, and on the other hand, it will reduce the risk of you staying with that dangerous guy among those people. Try to ensure that you are safe and I will teach you ancient sayings alone. You can’t tell him if anyone asks, just say I will teach you." Your basic knowledge of literature and mathematics, and your mastery of ancient sayings should also be kept secret from others. If someone asks about things, you will say that you don’t know anything. This is also for your safety … "
Norman’s knowledge in several aspects is really bad, but Franklin thinks that this guy may not even be able to spell a complete word, so it is reasonable to say "supplement the basic knowledge" and add relatives, so it is reasonable to teach alone.
And Franklin said so, and Norman kept nodding and saying that it was a promise to come, but it was not. Because of Franklin’s strange concept of taking the lead, Norman now thinks that he is lying to himself when he looks at Franklin’s words.
But what is the real reason? Norman is too lazy to pursue it, as long as he can benefit from Franklin.
And when Franklin finally confessed everything, they finally got down to business.
"Didn’t you read those two old sayings at noon and tell their meanings?"
Franklin watched Norman hold back until the words finally came out.
"Now draw them all."
Chapter 30 single spark can start a prairie fire
After all, I have never studied culture specially. Norman’s pen holding posture is very strange. It is the backhand knife holding posture that puts the quill pen in the whole handshake and then writes the parchment in front of him.
However, although the posture is not good and the pattern of the old saying is crooked, there is no sense of beauty, but Norman did draw the two new old sayings completely
We can see that apart from being a little ugly, Norman painted these two old sayings. There are a lot of places that should not be painted, and there are no more two strokes. It is exactly the two old sayings that Franklin slate painted just now.
Not only can you pronounce the pronunciation correctly and remember the meaning immediately, but you can also remember the structure completely at once. This performance is really satisfactory to Franklin, but it can be said that Franklin would once again doubt whether he had learned the old sayings before if he had not detected the Norman ancient sayings through dialogue in Franklin Lane.
"Very good"
Franklin was satisfied and stopped talking nonsense. Let’s get down to business. "Then I’ll teach you a few new old sayings. You should study hard …"
Franklin took a pen and paper and couldn’t wait to teach. It was the first time in his life that he wanted to teach others knowledge so badly. If his wife saw it, she would wonder if her husband was cursed by an evil wizard.
Since Franklin was so willing to teach Norman, he naturally didn’t listen carefully without learning the truth.
Norman had two main ways to learn ancient sayings. One was that it was difficult to steal from Peggy. After all, he lied to Peggy at that time. Peggy would say it once and would not explain it in detail. The second way is to learn from Bernie and his students.
When those children teach him, because of his fists and other things, they will try their best to explain it in detail, and Norman will be easier to learn than when Peggy stole it.
However, compared with Professor Franklin himself, the two learning efficiencies are still lower, whether in pronunciation, meaning explanation or depiction of archaic patterns. Franklin is obviously not at the same level as those students, and Franklin’s teaching staff has been engaged in it for a long time and has his own unique method to facilitate students’ learning, such as splitting archaic patterns. He has brought this method in together at the moment and made Norman feel that he is learning faster than before.
So the two of them taught one department at a time, and the mastery of Norman archaism increased continuously, and the font library expanded rapidly.
Make friends with shrimp, plum, grass, sisters, cool stars, ancestors and birds …
The mystery in Norman’s mind, with the rapid expansion of Norman’s font, the star is lit up with new stars. They are connected into a line one after another like a second, and then they are connected into a piece and spread like fire to sweep the whole star.
A single spark can start a prairie fire.
At the same time, it is still noon in the real world, and the huge fireball of the sun hangs in the sky and bakes all the glory. There is no star in the world, and there is no star.
For ordinary people, the stars will not rise until they look up at the mountain. There are no stars during the day, but for some special people, such as mages, they will know that there are stars during the day, but they are hidden by the sun’s light.
But today is different. The stars seem to be rebelling. Not to be outdone, they emit much stronger light than before, which can be detected even during the day.
There is a tramp lying in the corner, looking at the sky and cursing, "Damn it, it’s so hot … huh?"
Did he see that the sky was brighter than before, and it was obvious that the sun was hotter, and he was about to scold the heat? But before he finished, he found that the sun was not hotter, but it seemed to be cooler than before.
This is part of the reaction of ordinary people who have noticed the subtle difference in the sky. They have forgotten it without thinking much about it, but for others, it is obviously not a "subtle" or "unnecessary" difference.
A man in his forties is squatting on the ground with his hands behind his head in a residence in the west of the third district. At the table next to him, a girl of about twelve years old is sitting on the edge of the table, swinging back and forth with her feet out of reach.
"After that, you will be my teacher. Do you hear me?"
The girl blinked her green eyes at the man who was squatting on her head. When she said this to the man, she quickly said, "I heard it!" From the gap between his arms, you can see that his face is black and blue, as if he had just been beaten by someone.
The girl nodded with satisfaction, trying to teach herself a "teacher" for a while, but suddenly she realized that her little head suddenly turned toward a side window and the line of sight went out to look at the sky, and she was curious and excited, and there was an impulse to try.
Harris Bakery in the sixth district is now the least time for guests in a day. The strong guy is lying with a towel to cover his face and sleeping. There is a dry and thin old man sitting behind the counter with his right hand holding his head. He can’t keep his eyes open at any time, but suddenly his eyes open and he tries hard to stare at a pair of muddy old eyes, stretching his neck and looking out at the sky. His eyes are full of thoughts.
In the side garden of the Abbey Cathedral in the first district, a woman in a white robe was chatting with an old man in a blue robe opposite her while drinking tea, and suddenly they all looked up to the sky.
"Again …"
The old man in the blue robe murmured softly, and there was a deep fear in his eyes and a hidden deep disgust.
The white-robed woman didn’t say anything, but she looked at the sky quietly and flashed a strange and familiar male face in her mind.
An old man on the street of Dulle Road in the sixth district is curled up and sleeping soundly, but he can’t sleep after dawn.
I turned over several times and still fell asleep peacefully. This old guy can get up swearing and grope for himself while cursing a little.
"Do you have any quality for Niang Xipi? Let’s not let people sleep again …"
He’s an old guy, but he’s full of anger and obviously in good health
He touched himself for a long time and finally took out a silver from his crotch. This just stopped cursing and dumped his head and put this silver in his hand and waddled toward the pub.
Chapter 31 Notes
It was only when the bell of the district church struck six hours that Norman woke up from his addiction to learning, and Franklin, who was sitting opposite him, realized that he seemed to have forgotten a group of students.
"Sit here for a while and review what you just learned yourself."
Franklin suddenly gave a speech here-Norman showed a strong memory of the old saying all afternoon. For ordinary people, reviewing this means of deepening memory doesn’t seem to be too big for him. So he put it another way: "Then watch it for yourself for a while." He took it out from behind and handed it to Norman.
"I’m going to meet first, and I’ll come later."
