277, Preacher Bai Xiuzhu (Request Full Order)

"This is inseparable from your guidance and care, Professor James..."

"If it weren't for you, Professor James, who stood up against all odds during my graduate studies, I would still be taking graduate courses, or I would be in a hurry to attend the freshman seminar and would not have time to read the library's materials and documents."

Bai Gui thanked Professor James.

Yale University is extremely demanding in the training of graduate students. For example, a master's degree in history must take seven graduate courses and attend two seminars every year. A master's degree in science and medicine requires six graduate courses and four seminars.

The seminars are taught by senior professors at Yale University, who conduct small-class teaching and guidance through seminars.

So it's very tight when studying for a master's degree at Yale, and it's difficult to take time off to do other things.

"You have a good memory, and you can already finish some graduate courses ahead of time."

"I'm just giving you some convenience as a mentor."

Professor James smiled and said.

He couldn't let his graduate students "skip classes" at will.

But Bai Gui could achieve top grades in every subject, so he didn't need to be bothered by some unnecessary courses. For geniuses, special things are often done specially. Yale is to cultivate elites, not to cultivate assembly line workers like a factory. With Bai Gui's achievements, he can go to the Academic Affairs Office to make a request and be exempted from certain regular assessments.

Mud cannot be helped to the wall, but geniuses are often willing to open the door to convenience.

After talking with Professor James for a few more words, Bai Gui left.

"What a beautiful scenery."

He walked on the campus and saw a group of well-mannered blonde girls rehearsing a drama on the grass in the park, which was very pleasing to the eye.

"Juliet, by this bright moon, its silver light dyed the branches of these fruit trees, I swear-"

"Ah! Don't swear by the moon, it is fickle, every month there are waxing and waning, if you swear by it, maybe your love will be as impermanent as it..."

The rehearsal was the famous drama "Romeo and Juliet".

This is a student of the Yale School of Drama.

Bai Gui stopped to watch for a while, and then left on his own.

The rehearsal of Shakespeare's plays was very good, and as an outsider, he had no room to "criticize".

There is one in New York State and one in New Haven, both nearby.

Although he wanted to experience the exotic customs.

But... he still had to consider his image.

The School of Drama at Yale University is quite famous, and has trained many top artistic talents for Broadway and Hollywood. In China, the famous Mr. Lin obtained a bachelor's degree in fine arts from the School of Fine Arts at the University of Pennsylvania, and later went to the Department of Stage Art at the Yale School of Drama to pursue a master's degree.

…

After handing over the part about the rise of Portugal and Spain to Professor James, there was no news for more than 20 days, but in mid-September, Bai Gui received a letter in his personal mailbox.

The content of the letter was not beyond his expectations. The editorial board of the "Meiguo History Magazine" planned to select his paper for publication in the October issue of the magazine, which would be published by the University of Chicago Press.

He was also mailed a manuscript fee of two hundred US dollars.

"Come on, I'll treat you to a meal."

"The royalties just came."

Bai Gui walked to Mitsuko Yamada's villa, knocked on the door, and smiled.

The first step out is precious.

Although with his current reputation, it is not difficult to publish an article in the Meiguo History Magazine of Ameiken. But now that he can actually publish an article on it, it is equivalent to the academic community of Ameiken choosing to accept him, and he has already stepped half a foot into the circle of the academic community of Ameiken...

It is a good thing that he has not encountered any obstacles.

After all, he is the first Chinese who can publish an article in the Meiguo History Magazine.

It is not that he must be recognized by the people of Ameiken to prove his strength. He is not so inferior to this point. But now the discourse power of the cultural circle is in the Western world. If you want to have a certain reputation in the Western world, you have to integrate into this circle.

It is not okay to be self-deprecating, and it is even worse to be arrogant.

"Your paper was published in the Meiguo History Magazine?"

"This is indeed a good thing."

When Mitsuko Yamada heard the news, she was also happy for Bai Gui.

Although she is now in the College of Arts, she was once a history student like Bai Gui, and she knew how valuable the Meiguo History Magazine was.

In fact, after Bai Gui wrote the book Guns and Cannons, if he was an Ameiken or European, he would probably have been honored as a history professor in Ameiken, but who made him come from a weak country, so his reputation would be somewhat reduced, with ten points of strength but only five points, or even three points of reputation...

Now that he can use Yale University as a platform to publish papers in the Meiguo History Magazine, the invisible obstacles will dissipate a lot, this is the power of the Yale University clique.

The top universities have connections beyond imagination.

When he was in Qin Province, he entered the Normal School in the provincial capital, and he could have a certain relationship with the celebrities in Qin Province. When in Japan, entering the University of Tokyo was like getting a quasi-ticket to enter the upper class of society...

It was the same when I went to Yale University.

The two of them went to a high-end restaurant in New Haven and had dinner.

Bai Gui sent Mitsuko Yamada back home.

They talked about interesting things in the bedroom for a while, and then reluctantly separated.

"Goodbye and good night."

door.

The two hugged each other and said goodbye.

Bai Gui took a step back and closed the bedroom door.

He stood at the door.

After thinking for a while, he walked in again.

Collapse.

Everything will fall into place.

Nothing to be embarrassed about.

The next day, early morning.

"Bai Jun, do you think we will be sorry for Sister Xiuzhu if we do this..."

Yamada Mitsuko pursed his lips and asked softly.

During this period of time, she had deliberately ignored Bai Xiuzhu's existence.

But...after last night, it was inevitable to think of Bai Xiuzhu.

This is human nature.

"Xiuzhu, you are right, I really can't help Xiuzhu."

"But... with you, forget it, I will find time to confess to her. Xiuzhu has a virtuous personality and should be able to forgive you and me. However, she is weak, so I have to find a time to tell her, otherwise I will be angry. It’s my fault if I break her.”

Bai Gui walked out of the bedroom to the balcony, put on his robe and sighed.

Outside the window, the clouds are rolling and relaxing.

Now that he has made Yamada Mitsuko reluctantly accept Bai Xiuzhu's existence, it will be just around the corner for Bai Xiuzhu to accept Yamada Mitsuko.

"Well, Mr. Bai, you are right."

"You can't tell sister Xiuzhu about this too early..."

Mitsuko Yamada suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart and whispered.

…

His paper was selected by the "Meiguo History Magazine". Bai Gui couldn't just tell Yamada Mitsuko this good news. After taking a bath in Mitsuko Yamada's villa.

Bai Gui drove his Ford car from New Haven to New York State.

By the afternoon.

Arrive at the White House in Manhattan.

"Huh? Mihe, why did you come early this week? Didn't you always come on Wednesdays and Saturdays?"

"It's only Tuesday, you just left not long ago."

Mr. Bai glanced at the calendar and said in surprise.

Bai Gui told the truth.

"Okay, okay..."

"I didn't expect that your paper was selected for the "Journal of Meiguo History"? I have heard of this magazine. It is a very authoritative historical journal. If your paper can be selected for it, it is estimated that your graduation is not far away. …”

Master Bai exclaimed.

He knew that his son-in-law was very talented, but he didn't expect that he would achieve such great achievements just a few months after arriving in Ameiken. But he only marveled for a short while and soon felt relieved. Bai Gui is a famous scholar, but his reputation is not very prominent here in Ameiken. He is famous at home and in Japan. His current results are expected.

"Yes, it's not far away. With my qualifications, graduate school is just a transition."

"Professor James has already applied for a direct PhD for me."

"Professor James also intends to regard this paper as my master's thesis."

Bai Gui nodded and said.

Postgraduate education in Amei-Ken is different from that in later generations in China, which emphasizes the same entry and exit. Some postgraduates at Amei-Ken University are one-year, two-year or three-year, and there are no strict restrictions.

Graduate studies at Yale University are two-year.

In other words, you can graduate in two years.

However, all universities in Amei Kenya basically adopt a credit system. As long as you earn a certain number of credits, you can graduate early.

Although Bai Gui was absent from some seminars and postgraduate courses, his courses, except for ordinary points, basically received full marks, and he had met certain credit requirements. In addition, he was able to publish a paper in the "Journal of Meiguo History". It is possible to add credits. If the credits for the next semester are added, his credits have already met the requirements for graduate school graduation.

"By the beginning of next spring, I should be able to get a master's degree from Yale."

"But I still have a lot of time to stay in Amei and Kenya. I will not return to China until I finish studying for my doctorate."

Bai Gui smiled and said.

"As long as you have your own plan, we don't need to worry about it."

"I'll ask Xiuzhu to come down right now. Let's celebrate tonight..."

Mr. Bai stood up and said.

He was holding a civilized stick.

Went up to the second floor.

From time to time, he came down with Bai Xiuzhu.

The two had a conversation.

Mr. Bai asked Ma Liu to go to the restaurant to order food.

Although there are cooks in the White Mansion, the food they cook is delicious, but when entertaining distinguished guests or celebrating banquets, it takes too long, and the types of food they cook are not rich, and they are not as fast or as good as those in restaurants.

At night, Bai Xiuzhu's boudoir.

"How have you been practicing lately?"

Bai Gui asked.

Although some Taoist practices are secrets that are not taught to others, they are meant for others. He visited many Taoists in China and collected a lot of Taoist practices. Some of these practices are true or false, but he has reached a certain level in his practice. Be able to discern what is true and what is false.

When sending Liu Baoer to the Wanshou Eight Immortals Palace to practice Taoism, he also obtained a copy of Kun Tao's cultivation techniques from Kun Dao.

He personally instructed and passed it on to Bai Xiuzhu.

Since Ge Hong, the Baopuzi, and his wife Bao Gu can both become immortals, he will not end his love and sex, but only wants to achieve enlightenment and freedom for himself.

But you have to walk your own path after all.

If Bai Xiuzhu never succeeds, then he can only make a choice early.

Although he usually appears emotionally indecisive, when it comes to important decisions of his own, he will never be impulsive and extremely decisive!

As for teaching the Dao, this kind of thing is not a big deal.

For example, it is said that when Lu Zu was traveling in Wuxing, he met a woman. She was gorgeous and calm. She bathed and changed her clothes every night, burned incense and prayed to the heavens, in order to seek the Dao. Lu Zu saw that this woman was determined, so he taught her the practice method of "Female Dan Gong". After this woman learned this method, she was sincere and determined, and practiced all day long without stopping, so it took her three years to practice and become an immortal.

The Taoists created a system of internal training methods for Kun Dao, which are called "Female Dan Method", "Female Golden Dan", "Taiyin Chain Method", "Kun Dao Gong" and so on in the Danjing.

"I have been practicing diligently, and now I can feel the Qi in the dark."

"The secret method of breaking the dragon..."

Bai Xiuzhu blushed, "I haven't had my period for a while, and I thought I was pregnant. Later, I saw a doctor and he said that there was no pregnancy pulse, which made me very disappointed."

The first step in practicing Kun Dao is to cut the red dragon.

In the "Preface to the Female Alchemy Collection", it says: "Men first practice the essence and then practice the form, while women first practice the behavior and then the essence."

"It seems that you have completed the first step of the 100-day foundation building."

"This is normal. After all... I have been in bed with you for so long since I married you."

Bai Gui nodded gently.

The reason why he only wanted Bai Xiuzhu to practice Taoism was because since he had the White Deer Immortal Grass, his spirit, qi and three treasures were constantly replenished by her mysterious qi.

In the process, some of the leaked essence was transferred to Bai Xiuzhu,

It would be a pity if Bai Xiuzhu did not practice the cultivation method.

And these essence losses were not a big deal for him. His physique was very different from others. For him, the three treasures that others needed to replenish in the 100-day foundation building were just a few days.

However...now the road ahead is cut off, and it is more difficult to complete the 100-day foundation building than to ascend to heaven.

There are airplanes and hot air balloons to ascend to heaven.

He took another look at Bai Xiuzhu's skin, black hair and red face, and her skin was as soft as a baby's.

It is the reward after practicing.

But... after practicing Taoism, it is easy to starve children in the future.

"Although your aptitude is good, it is still a bit difficult to ask for immortality..."

"I will write a letter to Taoist Zhang to see if the immortal method he passed down can be passed on to you."

Bai Gui shook his head and said.

He was unwilling to compromise himself, so he asked for Taoism to see if he could go the way of earthly immortals and heavenly immortals.

But Bai Xiuzhu obviously did not have such good fortune. Bai Xiuzhu's only good fortune was him.

When one person gets the Tao, the chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven.

However, he needs to keep his promise. Even if he lets Bai Xiuzhu practice the immortal method of corpse transformation, he has to write to Taoist Zhang to see if he will allow it. If Taoist Zhang does not allow it, he will return to the country to ask other high Taoists.

"Yes, husband."

Bai Xiuzhu nodded lightly, of course there is nothing wrong with it.

She followed Bai Gui in practicing cultivation at first, but she did as her husband asked, and only occasionally thought about reaching Bai Gui's level of having a fragrant body. Unexpectedly, after practicing, her body changed so much that she became happy to practice Taoism.
