Chapter 353 Heavy Learning Tasks
It’s fine that he told a man he had known for less than ten days that he wanted to be his father, but then he said it didn’t matter if he couldn’t teach him well. Wasn’t that a clear admission that the other person couldn’t teach him well?
At this moment, little Liu Shang felt like the sky had fallen on him.
Zhang Molan was stunned by his desperate ramblings.
He lowered his head and took a good look at the child, who was only as tall as his waist, for the first time.
The pure black, fine hair was a little dry due to malnutrition, but still looked very soft.
The slightly long bangs covered the eyebrows and eyes, and also concealed most of the expression on the face. Zhang Molan had seen the child's face. He looked very well-behaved and had a pretty and handsome appearance. As long as he was raised carefully, he would not grow up ugly.
Putting aside bloodline, this child does look like a descendant of their Zhang family...
What is he thinking!!!
Zhang Molan slapped his forehead, shaking off his previous thoughts and making an impatient click of the tongue.
"You are quite imaginative. It's not easy to be my son."
Zhang Molan rubbed Liu Shang's head hard, sneered, and pushed him towards Zhang Moyu.
"I almost forgot, he's the teacher I chose for your listening and language classes. He happens to be free right now, so why don't you get familiar with him first?
"Xiao Youjun, please test this child's abilities. He is quite talented in these two areas. See if he can pass on all the thirty or so languages you know."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Molan put his hands in the pockets of his black coat, turned around and left in a cool manner. It was unknown whether he really wanted to stroll somewhere at this moment, or whether he felt uncomfortable and wanted to escape from here quickly.
Because of the atmosphere within the family and the habits of the members themselves, most of the Zhang family members are accustomed to being implicit in expressing their emotions, with a sense that everything can only be understood and not expressed in words.
So for the Zhang family, sincerity is always the killer skill!
Zhang Moyu looked Liu Shang up and down again, a look of surprise on his face, but he didn't say much. This kid has a strong sixth sense. I hope he can continue to avoid trouble and seek good fortune in the future.
Thinking of Zhang Molan, who was careless and started well but ended badly, Zhang Moyu turned around and gave Zhang Qiling some advice in a gentle voice.
"Chief, I'm taking Jiayou to have his talent tested. You can rest here first. I'll have the sea snake guard outside the courtyard. Just let the child handle anything else."
Zhang Qiling nodded silently, then lay down on the recliner, basking in the sun lazily with his eyes closed.
Zhang Moyu considerately reached out and adjusted the leaves of the grape vine climbing above his head, so that the leaves of the grape vine blocked the sunlight shining on Zhang Qiling's face, hoping that he would sleep more comfortably, and then pulled Liu Shang away.
Thinking of the thirty-eight plus three languages he now knew, Zhang Moyu looked at Liu Shang with a hint of expectation.
Language is a very important inheritance, but learning a language also requires talent. He was a little worried about the successor before.
The thirty-eight languages include corpse language, insect language, horse language, eagle language, snake language, whale language, etc., all of which were learned when I was in the Zhang family.
The other three subjects he added were the language of the dead, the puppet code language, and the most unique one, the Cthulhu-style simple communication language he called octopus language, which he learned from the horror world.
If you want to learn these languages, you must have a smart brain and good physical condition.
No matter which language the Zhang family's lesser-known languages are, they all require learners to have very fine control over their lips, tongue and throat.
For things like snake language and insect language, the talent requirements are not too high. The sounds made by the communication partners are small, so the learners must have sensitive ears to catch small sounds.
Most languages can be learned with brainpower, training, and a little bit of talent.
However, for languages like whale language and bat language, the prerequisite for learning is that one's hearing must exceed the limits of ordinary humans. The pronunciation of these languages can be supplemented by external objects, but the hearing requirement is at least from 15 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
Even if the Zhang family has some similar training methods, the talent requirements are outrageously high.
Liu Shang doesn’t know yet how heavy the learning tasks he will face in the future will be.
After being led by Zhang Moyu to the library standing behind the clan leader's main building, Liu Shang saw Zhang Moyu skillfully walk to a bookshelf, take a file bag from the shelf, pull out the top piece of paper, and hand the rest to him.
"You should be able to read, so take these tests first. Just write down as much as you can."
Zhang Moyu pointed to a row of tables and chairs in the corner, and Liu Shang looked in the direction he pointed.
A row of tables and chairs were neatly arranged. In the middle of each table was a piece of white paper as thick as two dictionaries, and there was also a pen holder full of pens for anyone to use.
At one of the tables, sat a young woman in a red vintage dress, holding a pen and writing furiously on a stack of white papers.
There were a lot of stacked papers filled with words next to her. When Liu Shang looked over, she had just finished writing on one paper. She put the finished paper on the stack and continued to write carefully on the next piece of paper.
After getting to know this elder, Liu Shang felt that he was very approachable. He became bolder and asked Zhang Moyu with some curiosity.
"What is that sister doing?"
"At home, don't use kinship-related terms like 'sister'. There are many people in the family whose ages you can't tell from their faces, so instead of calling them by their names, call them by their positions.
That person over there is your future martial arts teacher, the clan leader of the family, Zhang Ben'an."
Zhang Moyu taught the new kid a lesson, glanced at Zhang Benan who was looking up at him from the opposite side, and nodded to her.
Zhang Ben'an lowered his eyes and nodded, then immediately returned to the task of writing the book.
"What she's writing now is what you'll learn in the future. Since there are fewer teachers in the family right now, she's also responsible for writing textbooks for other subjects, so you'll need to study on your own."
Liu Shang's expression was confused for a moment. He seemed to have foreseen the difficult life in the future, which he could not resist. He could only nod with difficulty.
"I...I will try my best to learn."
Why don’t we send our children to other schools if there aren’t enough teachers at home?
Why don’t we buy teaching materials from outside, but have family members write them themselves?
The most important thing is, why should he be taught by himself? ! !
Thinking about how Zhang Molan had arranged a series of courses for him that could be considered advanced undercover professional training, and had also booked him a lot of foreign language courses...
Within just a few hours of arriving at the Zhang family, Liu Shang already felt the heavy pressure from studying, which was an unbearable burden on his life!
