The Divine Continent of Middle Earth, the Book of Rites Academy.
There was a heavy snowfall in the middle of winter. While the masters and scholars in the academy were asking questions and learning, Mao Xiaodong sat alone in the pavilion and admired the snow. He rubbed his hands gently and silently recited a popular prose piece. The Tianyun Mountain and the water embankment were all white.
Tingzhou, fishermen, drinkers all have one grain.
Mao Xiaodong was not in a relaxed mood at the moment, because the Cliff Academy's return to one of the seventy-two academies had been delayed for so many years and still could not be finalized. Now Aquarius Continent has even completed the excavation of the Dadu and the construction of the Dali capital.
In the end, it seemed that he, Mao Xiaodong, was the one holding him back. If it weren't for his poor relationship with the big Li Xiuhu and his unwillingness to have any interaction with Cui Zhang, otherwise Mao Xiaodong would have written to Cui
Hey, saying that you only have this ability is obviously not going to help. You should quickly find someone with the ability to take charge of the overall situation. As long as the Cliff Academy returns to the orthodoxy of the Confucian Temple, I will love you.
But Mao Xiaodong knew very well that it didn't matter whether he wrote a letter or not. Cui Chan, that bastard, didn't care about old times at all. He only wanted one result in everything. Since Cui Chan chose to lead the team to travel by himself and then stopped interfering, it should be
It was Cui Chan who had already planned it.
Cui Zhang can wait, Mao Xiaodong is almost so anxious that smoke is coming out of his throat.
Tongye Continent has become a mess. There are newspapers circulating here in Liji Academy every day. Compared with Fuyao Continent and the monster army, each has its own victory or defeat on the coastal battlefield, especially the upper five realm monks in Fuyao Continent.
They will try their best to choose the battlefield overseas to prevent the various immortal magic techniques of fighting against the big demon from accidentally affecting the troops gathered by the major dynasties on the earth. In addition to the monks in the upper five realms who have such courage, Qi Tingji, Zhou Shenzhi, and
A team-up raid by an Ascension Realm monk from Fuyao Continent has a lot to do with it.
On the other hand, Tongyezhou, which only adopted a defensive posture from the beginning, the war situation was simply corrupt. From the mountain fairy family to the secular dynasty, everything collapsed at the first touch. Now it can only rely on the three major academies and the immortal families with sect names to support them.
Guizong can only be said to be on a solid defense, while Tongye Zong and Fuji Zong are slightly in chaos, especially Fuji Zong, which is near the sea. The boundaries of its jurisdiction are constantly shrinking, but Taiping Mountain is the most impressive. That place is both defensive and defensive.
Under the protection of the mountains and rivers formation, a thousand monks were able to work together to fight out of the sect and achieve great feats. The old Heavenly Lord of Taiping Mountain, who had already fallen to one level, was able to combine the three walls and four elephants formation in one continent with his own formation.
Under the double blessing, the statue is majestic, holding a large mirror, like an immortal holding a bright moon in his hand, shining brightly in all directions, and illuminated by the moonlight, the monks of Taiping Mountain can advance and retreat freely, killing enemies like hemp...
Mao Xiaodong wished he could quit his post as deputy mountain master and go to Old Dragon City to guard it. Instead of just staring here every day, he might as well do something practical.
Mao Xiaodong brought a large group of academy students to travel here across continents. As the deputy mountain master, he must not only protect the students and concentrate on their studies, try not to conflict with the academy scholars, but also strive to recover for the cliff academy.
He holds the title of one of the seventy-two academies of the Confucian Temple, so Mao Xiaodong has not had an easy time these years. The most important thing is that Da Li Xiuhu did not tell Mao Xiaodong how to accomplish things, and when he arrived at the Liji Academy, the Great Sacrifice Wine did not communicate with him.
Mao Xiaodong asked how to pass the assessment, so Mao Xiaodong was asked to wait for the news. Mao Xiaodong could only ask more than 30 reading seeds, including Li Baoping, to calm down and study hard.
Mao Xiaodong actually felt a little guilty, because the most important factor in whether he could be promoted to one of the seventy-two academies was the level and depth of the mountain master's knowledge.
When senior brother Qi Jingchun was still alive, Mao Xiaodong didn't find it difficult at all when Cliff Academy won this honor. But when he came to take charge, he felt even more powerless. Now that he has returned to Confucian Temple Academy, he cannot be relied upon as the master of the mountain, so logically he can only rely on his students.
, but when it comes to the source of students, whether it is the Shanya Academy in the Great Li capital or the relocated Shanya Academy in the Great Sui Dynasty, they have actually never been able to compete with Guanhu Academy. Before the relocation, both Shanya Academy and Guanhu Academy were among the seventy-two.
, but the first-class reading seeds in Aquarius Island still like to try their luck at Guanhu Academy first. If they can't pass, they will settle for the second best and go to the then Dali Cliff Academy. In fact, regarding this matter, together with Mao Xiaodong
Several deputy mountain masters, including the late Emperor Dali, all complained, but Senior Brother Qi was always casual and calm. No matter what kind of scholars and students came to the academy, he let the masters and gentlemen just concentrate on teaching the same knowledge.
When Qi Jingchun was the master of the mountain, Cliff Academy had always been unbeatable in one thing, that is, every year, a group of Han people were selected from local prefectures and counties. Even if these people had extremely poor academic foundation, the academy still accepted them every year.
, Qi Jingchun will personally teach them knowledge. Therefore, to a large extent, many talented and top-notch scholars from Aquarius Continent with excellent family backgrounds are not willing to come to Cliff Academy to study, and some are not willing to be classmates with this group of poor students.
The thought of companionship.
Mao Xiaodong remembered very clearly that the late Emperor of Dali once visited the academy and hinted to his senior brother that the Dali Capital Academy was willing to accept this group of Han clan scholars and promised not to treat them badly or delay these scholars. Not only that, Dali's officialdom would also be certain
By carving out a smooth official career for them, wouldn't Mr. Qi and the academy not have to worry about it? With Mr. Qi's knowledge, he can choose the best reading seeds in the academy.
The senior brother simply said with a smile that even if the Dali Song family wanted to forget its roots, it would be too early.
This matter will be settled.
Therefore, before going to Lizhu Cave Heaven, Mountain Master Qi Jingchun did not have any direct disciples. Sons of high-ranking families with relatively deep academic foundations also taught, and children from ordinary people from the countryside also taught personally.
Mao Xiaodong himself was actually no stranger to the Liji Academy. He once came here for a study tour with his two senior brothers, Zuo and Qi Jingchun. However, the two senior brothers didn't stay long and left him here alone, leaving without even saying hello.
, only one letter was left. In the letter, senior brother Qi said what a senior brother should say, pointing out the direction of Mao Xiaodong's study, who he should consult with for advice and scholarship, and which sages' books he should study. Anyway, it was very comforting.
human heart.
At the end of the letter, Senior Brother Zuo asked Mao Xiaodong to rest assured that he was being bullied, and to inform the Senior Brother that he should remember not to trouble the Sir, because the Senior Brother was very free and the Sir was very busy.
How can Mao Xiaodong rest assured about this? Except for the knowledge related to his teacher, how can Mao Xiaodong dare to complain to the left and right casually? Senior Brother Zuo doesn't take action every time, and he doesn't need to clean up the mess personally.
He had always been friendly with his husband. Therefore, Mao Xiaodong had no choice but to take it easy and study here for several years.
Mao Xiaodong walked out of the pavilion and looked at the couplets at the foot of the steps.
You need to experience things firsthand before you can say anything about it.
Only when the words blend with the heart can the book feel interesting.
Mao Xiaodong turned around and saw Li Baoping holding a hiking pole and wearing a red cotton jacket.
When Li Baoping came to his side, Mao Xiaodong laughed softly: "Did you skip class again?"
Li Baoping nodded, then shook his head, "I've told Master beforehand that I'm going to Younang Lake to enjoy the snow with Mr. Zhong, Sister Diezhang and the others."
After Zhong Qiu and Cao Qinglang left the Jianqi Great Wall, they separated from Cui Dongshan and Pei Qian. The latter returned to Aquarius Continent, but they traveled to the Chen family of Nanbosu Continent, and then came to the Middle-earth Divine Continent to study on a trip.
, walked for several years, and finally came to Liji Academy. I heard that Master Mao Shan and Li Baoping happened to be studying in the academy, so they stopped here.
During this period, Chen Sanqiu and Die Zhang came to Liji Academy again. Chen Sanqiu had become a Confucian scholar in the academy, but Die Zhang had to wait for someone. Unfortunately, the friend Die Zhang was looking for was said to have followed the saint to the fifth building.
The world.
Mao Xiaodong smiled and said: "What's the point of going to Yousang Lake? Mabu Lake is the best place to go. It's a big deal."
Then Mao Xiaodong whispered: "Baoping, I will whisper these personal opinions to you, just forget them after you hear them, don't tell anyone else."
Li Baoping said: "I will not casually talk about the quality of other people's writings or the quality of their people. Even if I really want to mention this person, I should mention it with others along with the cultural purpose of advocating elegance and overthrowing vulgarity. I will not
Just grasping the sentence "If you get the water from the Tianhe River by the oil bag, you will add the cup of longevity", it is difficult to get entangled with people. "The book has been close for thousands of years" and "The green water meanders away", both are excellent."
Mao Xiaodong smiled and nodded, "Very good. We must be so upright and peaceful in our academic studies and conduct in life."
Li Baoping hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Mao, don't worry too much."
Previously, she saw Mr. Mao enjoying the scenery from a distance, and it was only then that Li Baoping came here to say hello to Master Mao.
Mao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Worry is inevitable, but you can't worry too much. Don't worry."
Li Baoping said goodbye and left.
Reunion with Zhong Qiu, Cao Qinglang, and Sister Diezhang who went to Younang Lake to enjoy the snow.
Chen Sanqiu is now a Confucian student in the Academy, so it is difficult to skip classes. Furthermore, although Chen Sanqiu has read a lot at the Great Wall of Sword Qi, he found that it is not easy to catch up when he actually goes to the Academy to study.
Moreover, Chen Sanqiu became a Confucian scholar in the academy inexplicably. As soon as he arrived at the Liji Academy, a kind-looking old gentleman found him, and they chatted and enjoyed the scenery together. Chen Sanqiu only found out later that the man turned out to be the academy's chief priest. So.
Chen Sanqiu studied diligently. Because he reached the Nascent Soul Realm during his travels from Nan Po Sua Continent to the Middle Earth Divine Continent, Chen Sanqiu also had his own advantages compared to many academic scholars who were not cultivators. During the day
The Master preached that if you study by yourself at night, you can also warm up your sword spirit and be tireless.
Diezhang is still the bottleneck of the golden elixir, but I don't think it's a big deal. After all, Chen Sanqiu is recognized as the reading seed of Jianqi Great Wall, and Feijian's natal magical power is related to literary luck. It's normal for Chen Sanqiu to break through. What's more, Diezhang now has a kind of heartstrings.
The tension turned to a suddenly loose state, as if she didn't know what to do after leaving the Great Wall of Sword Qi where the fierce fighting was taking place.
The thought of meeting that Confucian gentleman again one day makes her nervous. And the fifth world will not open until a hundred years later. At that time, she and Chen Sanqiu can go to that foreign land, the place where they are indistinguishable from their hometown, to meet Ning Yao.
them.
That's why Li Baoping often takes Sister Diezhang to hang out and relax.
Mao Xiaodong looked in the direction they left.
Li Baoping, a man in a red cotton-padded jacket, and Cao Qinglang, a scholar in a green shirt, both habitually travel with hiking poles in hand.
Mao Xiaodong stroked his beard and smiled, feeling quite happy. His heart was filled with depression and fell to the ground with the snow.
No matter what, the fragrance of my own cultural context is no longer so precarious, and it seems that it will disappear at any time.
Mao Xiaodong had a good impression of Cao Qinglang. And Cao Qinglang was the direct disciple of his junior brother Chen Pingan.
According to seniority, you have to call yourself uncle!
In fact, when Cao Qinglang met him for the first time, he bowed and called him uncle.
How could Mao Xiaodong be unhappy?
Because of certain things, Xiaobaoping, Lin Shouyi and the others could only call themselves Mount Master Mao or Mr. Mao. And Mao Xiaodong himself did not recruit direct disciples.
The little girl Pei Qian was Chen Pingan's boxing disciple after all, so in the end, the most legitimate third-generation disciple of Wen Sheng's lineage was Cao Qinglang.
The tall old man turned around and left the pavilion to study. He planned to go back to his residence to warm a pot of wine and open the window to read a book on a snowy day.
Unexpectedly, someone behind him smiled and shouted: "Xiaodong."
