Chapter 183： Master sent

Chapter 183 Sent by Master

He leaned over, closed his eyes and glanced at it. The next second he let out a cry of fright, took two steps back and stammered, "Brother, there is something moving here, could it be a monster?"

Qiu Sheng leaned over to take a look, and the patterns inside were constantly changing. He explained with a smile: "This thing is called a kaleidoscope, and there are patterns inside. Put it in the sun, and the patterns inside will rotate, which is very strange."

This is a birthday present from Brother Baokang.

There were still four days before his birthday, but that day happened to be the last day of the exam. Brother Baokang said that there was no time to give the gift that day, so he gave it in advance.

Just now Xiao Li asked him for a prize. He only had a storybook in his bag, so he was afraid that his younger brother would not like it, so he showed him this rare thing first.

Xiao Li was frightened, and shook his head resolutely not to look at it.

Erya and Jiaojiao heard the movement, came over and looked curiously at the kaleidoscope in the elder brother's hand.

"Brother, this is the kaleidoscope?" Erya stared at it brightly. She had heard from her uncle that the inside of the kaleidoscope was very magical. Could it be this?

Qiu Sheng nodded and said, "Well, this is the kaleidoscope."

"Then I want to see!"

Erya couldn't wait to come over and pick it up. After seeing the things inside, her eyes widened and she exclaimed in disbelief: "It's amazing, it really changes as much as Uncle said."

Jiaojiao heard about it, and looked at it on tiptoe, and found it very strange to see that the patterns kept changing.

Human beings are amazing. How do so many patterns rotate in this small tube?

I am not afraid to see my elder sister and younger sister, but look at them happily.

Xiao Li, who was in the distance, walked over eagerly, then grabbed the elder brother's arm, and narrowed his eyes nervously to take a look.

Hey, there are really many patterns moving.

They are all fixed patterns, and there are no others. Although they can move, Xiao Li doesn't seem to be very interested.

Erya and Jiaojiao took it over there to study.

Xiao Li pouted and pulled his elder brother and asked, "Is this the prize?"

Qiu Sheng shook his head and smiled, and said, "Your prize is something else. This kaleidoscope is a birthday gift from my elder brother's classmate. It can be enjoyed by everyone, but it can't be given away at will. That's disrespectful to people."

Xiao Li's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile, "That's great, then hurry up and see my prize."

Qiu Sheng never thought that he would look down on the kaleidoscope, so he shook his head and smiled, took out the storybook, and introduced: "This is a storybook, easy to understand, and the content is quite interesting."

The book is full of text, with only a few pictures, but the advantage of the story book is that it is written in oral vernacular, which is easy to understand.

Xiao Li has just learned to read, and reading this kind of story book will improve faster than reading ancient prose. The story is coherent, and many words and sentences are well-coordinated everyday words, not as blunt as ancient prose.

Xiao Li has been reading those stories in the elder brother's room these days and nights, it is too convoluted, and just wanted to see if there are other books, and happened to be the story book sent by the elder brother.

"Thank you, brother, I like this prize very much."

Xiao Li happily took the story book, opened it and flipped through it, not looking at those awkward sentences, he was immediately overjoyed.

“I’m going to read this before bed tonight.”

Qiu Sheng heard about it, pulled his younger brother and asked, "Xiao Li, how did you know so many characters so quickly?"

In such a short period of time, logically speaking, he can only learn some simple words, how can Xiao Li read the entire book in one go.

Xiao Li scratched his head and said, "It was my sister who gave me a book of ancient poems. I learned to memorize them, and then I learned how to read them. Slowly, I will be able to read them."

Qiu Sheng was surprised to hear that there is such a method of literacy, so he joked with a smile: "Can you let the elder brother read the ancient poems to see what kind of baby is so powerful."

Hearing this, Xiao Li hurriedly ran out towards the door, and after a while, came in with a thick book of poetry in his hand.

"Brother, this is it."

Qiu Sheng smiled and opened it casually, and was a little shocked when he saw the words on it.

The font is not written with a brush, but more like engraved on it. It is neat and tidy at a glance.

And there are pictures and texts. Under each poem, there are simple landscape pictures and portraits drawn with a few lines, which are very attractive.

It's no wonder that Xiao Li is willing to learn how to read by watching. He is fascinated by those poems. He has such a good writing style, and the poems have never been heard before.

Could it be that this is a personal letter?

Qiu Sheng hurriedly took it to ask Jiaojiao.

Jiaojiao scratched her head and couldn't explain the space, so she pushed it to Master again, and said in a waxy voice, "Well, this book is from Master."

Erya heard about Master, glanced at the thick book, and muttered, "Why does your master give you everything?"

Qiusheng was even more confused, and asked softly: "Jiaojiao, who do you worship as your teacher?"

Before Jiaojiao could speak, Erya said, "It's a monk with hair on Qing'an Temple Mountain, Jiaojiao calls him Master."

Qiusheng looked at Jiaojiao, she blinked her **** eyes, nodded her head and said, "Well, Master is a good person."

Qiu Sheng classified this book as that master's handbook, and looked through it again. The words are relatively single and large, which is easier to remember than the words on the densely packed booklet.

It is suitable for Xiao Li, and in each poem, there are relatively few repeated words, and there are at least a hundred words in a poem. If you can memorize the words of two or three poems, then reading a vernacular story is really not a problem.

It's no wonder Xiao Li has improved so much.

Seeing that elder brother seemed to like that book, Jiaojiao tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "Brother, master gave me many books, but I couldn't read them, so I put a few in your room, under the pillow at the head of your bed. .”

Qiu Sheng was taken aback when he heard that, then he got up and went to the bedside. After opening the pillow, he found several wide and thick books.

Governing the country, thirty-six strategies, Taoism, Confucianism.

After reading the title of the book, Qiu Sheng guessed that it was also the master's personal handwriting, because he had never heard of these books before, and the notes were exactly the same as Xiao Li's ancient poems. The square font was very clear, and the overall look was simple and comfortable .

Jiaojiao couldn't see the expression on the elder brother's face, and she didn't know whether these books were suitable for her taste, so she hurriedly said, "Brother, if you don't like these books, I'll borrow some from Master."

Anyway, the elder brother didn’t know that the master had left, so she just changed the book with the one in the space.

Qiu Sheng simply flipped through it, and said with a smile, "No need to be Jiaojiao, my eldest brother likes these books very much. The four books are of different categories. After reading them, I will definitely benefit a lot and learn more useful knowledge."

The exam is approaching, and no one knows what questions the examiner will ask. I heard from the master that there are many kinds of things in the past, so I asked them to read various types from time to time.

He copied books for others and accumulated a lot of story books, but he has hardly read the four books in front of him. This is a personal letter, and Qiu Sheng is still very interested.
