Chapter 15 The Version of This World

Lantern Festival Gala!

Two colleges compete!

Yi Yun glanced at Zhang Chu and didn't know about this at all. Even if he knew about it, he didn't have the intention to do so.

There are two major colleges in GuangYin County. In addition to GuangYin Academy, there is also one of its original academy.

The Qingshi Academy has a long history and has a history of hundreds of years. However, its original academy has only thirty years of history. The founder was the county magistrate at that time, in order to educate.

The name of the original academy was originally from a passage from "Mencius. Li Louxia": "A gentleman studies the way and wants to be satisfied by himself. If he gets it, he will live in peace; if he lives in peace, he will be able to provide a deep resource; if he gets it deep, he will take it to the left and right to meet the original function, so a gentleman wants to be satisfied by himself."

Over the years, in order to compete for the position of the first academy, the two academies have had many competitions with each other. In general, the Time Academy wins more than they lose less, but Yi Yun does not intend to participate in the competition between the two academies.

The reason is very simple. The founder of the original academy, the one who was the county magistrate at that time, served as the chief inspector of the prefecture and the prefecture's school official, and then retired.

This series of promotions is equivalent to being promoted from the original county leader to the city, and finally resigning as the provincial education director.

The state school official was the official who was in charge of the promotion of state candidates. This is different from the modern day. Under the modern education system, students were not very grateful to the leaders of the Education Bureau. However, in ancient times, as long as they passed the state entrance examination during his tenure, they could be regarded as his disciple, with this incense.

Let’s not talk about the students for now, but there must be subordinates promoted by this state school official in the education system. Many of these officials are now serving as school officials in various prefectures. These officials must give face to the old leaders. If the academy founded by the old leaders is compared, these officials will be disgraced.

Yi Yun was unwilling to show off this, and was remembered by these school officials. You should know that those who can participate in the provincial examination have not weak ability to make articles, especially the first few, and the difference is even small. In this case, who is the first and who is the second place is naturally based on the preferences of the school officials, and no one can pick it.

"Just be happy."

After leaving this sentence, Yi Yun ignored Zhang Chu and walked directly towards Wangshuyuan. Mr. Xu was already waiting in the pavilion.

"gentlemen!"

In the pavilion, Xu Qing was still wearing a Confucian shirt, as if the cold outside had nothing to do with him. Yi Yun could also see that the gentleman was not meant to be gentle but not to be warm, but was really not afraid of the cold.

"Let's warm your hands and feet first."

There is a stove in the pavilion, but because the pavilion is airtight, you can't feel much warmth without being attached. Yi Yun also knew that this was prepared by the teacher for himself. He answered the papers in the school before, and although the answers were refreshing, his hands and feet became cold because of this.

"Thank you sir."

Yi Yun thought at first that he might be frozen to death by writing in this pavilion. He didn't expect that his husband would prepare a stove for him, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

After all, the education he received in his previous life was the type of hard study when he mentioned that he was studying, and it was all about the stories of studying under difficult conditions, such as chiseling a wall to steal light, capsizing fireflies to reflect the snow, not to mention allusions such as hanging the head of the beam and pricking the thighs.

"Why, a little surprised, do you think I should remove this stove and let you write quickly in the cold and exercise your will."

Xu Qing seemed to see what Yi Yun was thinking, and smiled and said, "It is necessary to study hard, but the word "hard" does not refer to poverty, but to give up some entertainment because of studying hard and giving up some entertainment. The inspirational scholars left in history is because they are from poor backgrounds and have no choice. In fact, if you carefully understand the history of literati in history, you will find that more scholars have wealthy families."

"It is difficult for poor disciples to make a name for themselves, so poor disciples need to work harder than others. These classics in history are not wrong, but it does not mean that scholars will suffer. Do you know what happened to Yang, one of the three Dukes of the dynasty, when he was young?"

Facing the husband's inquiry, Yi Yun shook his head truthfully, "Students don't know."

"Yang Gong came from a wealthy family in Guandong. When he was young, he had three famous teachers. The paper he used was the best rice paper in Jingxian. The brushes used to practice calligraphy were also masters. And each pen was written only 1,000 words and was thrown and replaced."

"However, most people cannot afford to learn this way, and only those direct clans from famous families can enjoy it. Although you cannot have such conditions, it is necessary to keep warm when reading and practicing calligraphy, otherwise it will easily hurt your energy."

Yi Yun nodded to express his understanding. Hard study is a must, but hard study does not mean suffering. He deliberately jokes about his own health. This is not to sharpen his will, but to be sick.

"Sir, the student has a question to ask."

While Wen Huo was warming his hands and feet, Yi Yun looked up at Xu Qing. When he saw the gentleman nodding, he asked, "Sir, are there any fairies and ghosts in this world?"

This question is what Yi Yun wants to know the most at present. He has seen the ghost, so what about the monster?

"Why are there such a question?" Xu Qing didn't expect that Yi Yun was asking this question.

"The student went up the mountain the day before yesterday and encountered something."

Yi Yun told the gentleman about the ghost he encountered when he came over. Of course, he erased some of his pretending behavior, just saying that he scolded him and scared the ghost away.

"Don't move!"

After listening to Yi Yun's description, Xu Qing suddenly placed his hand on Yi Yun's head, and his palm came out from his forehead to the back of his head. Finally, he gently slapped Yi Yun's shoulders. These two palms made Yi Yun's body tremble slightly.

"Your soul is a bit absent. I think it was because of the scare of the ghost, but it was not serious. I will give you a prescription. You can recover if you take the medicine."

Although Xu Qing did not answer explicitly, his words were equivalent to telling Yi Yun the answer.

"Sir, do you know these more?"

Yi Yun is now very curious about Mr. Xu's identity. A scholar can still know that his soul is absent and know how to prescribe medicine. Isn't this the work done by Taoist priests?

"This is a miscellaneous study. I have read a few books on this aspect in the past, which are slightly involved." Xu Qing smiled. When he read the books on this aspect, he was criticized by the teacher, saying that he was confused and could not focus.

"As for the question you just asked, I can answer you, there are ghosts in this world, not only but many."

There are still many more?

So it’s normal for me to encounter ghosts and monsters after only a few days of traveling through time?

"Sir, since there are so many ghosts and monsters, why don't ordinary people encounter them? Most of the stories circulating are heard from others."

"Because compared to people who are afraid of ghosts, ghosts are actually more afraid of people."

Xu Qing's answer made him confused. Ghosts are afraid of people? Is the force of ghosts in this world different from that of his original world?

"Ghosts, sucking the shade and fearing the yang. Not to mention scholars with righteous hearts, even a butcher, ordinary ghosts dare not approach them. Moreover, ghosts and monsters are just confusion. As long as they are firm in will and their hearts are like rocks, ordinary ghosts and monsters can do nothing."

"In addition, my Confucianism has the righteous spirit, Taoism has the law of Ziwei, Legalism has the true meaning of law, Mohist school has the thousand-machine instruments, and no one is the nemesis of ghosts. Those ghosts dare to come out of cholera when the government and the country are in a turbulent state."

After hearing this, Yi Yunsun understood that in this world, there are too many people who can deal with ghosts, and ghosts can only be humans with their tails.

I can only say that the ghosts in this world are not strong, and I feel sorry for those ghosts for a minute.

"Sir, so we don't need to be afraid of those ghosts." Yi Yun said his judgment.

"A thousand years ago, when Emperor Daqian had not unified the world, ghosts and monsters were raging, and our human race had to be afraid of three points. However, since Emperor Daqian had unified the world, those powerful monsters were either killed or fled to the four extremes. Those who survived by chance and did not escape were all chosen to stand on the side of Emperor Daqian."

"After Emperor Daqian, our human race has become increasingly prosperous, and ghosts have no chance to cause trouble. Those demon races that have survived are also registered. Once they dare to do something ruled, the court will send special people to deal with it. Therefore, ordinary monsters will not harm people for no reason."

"In other words, the version has changed and the jungler is no longer popular." Yi Yun murmured in a low voice.

"What jungler?" Xu Qing heard Yi Yun's muttering words and asked in confusion.

"Uh...sir, I mean, those monsters can only stay in the deep mountains and forests, and are rarely visited." Yi Yun, who almost let out a joke, hurriedly returned.

"It's almost the case, but there are some monsters who will hang out in the city, but that is usually in exchange for what they need, and they are also registered by the government. Once they enter the city privately, they will be severely punished."

"Thank you, Mr., for answering the questions, the students understand everything now." Yi Yun bowed to Xu Qing and bowed. After a while, his body was completely warmed up.

My body was warm and I continued to practice calligraphy. When Yi Yun returned to his residence at noon, he realized that Zhu Mingming, Luo Fu, and Chen Sheng were already waiting here.

"Brother Yi, Meixianglou is in a big fire. Luofu suggested that we go to Meixianglou to see how Miss Jin'er and the others are doing, and see if there is any help needed. If you are really unlucky, then you can also handle their funerals. After all, it will be a meeting."

When Yi Yun rolled his eyes in his heart when he heard Zhu Mingming's words, he said that I was just acquaintance. You are already old friends.

However, he was also moved by Zhu Mingming's proposal. If Mr. Xu had told him today about the situation of ghosts in this world, he would never have gone to that place to wade in the muddy waters. But since he knew that ghosts did not dare to harm people at will, he would not be so scared.
