Da Qin: I made up the exercises blindly, and the First Emperor asked me for a method of immortality

Chapter 258 For decades! Dong Zhongshu! ( words chapter)

The house where Jiang Lin lives is a thatched house located in the corner of the village.

The walls have become criss-crossed with ravines as the soil has fallen off, and the thatch on them is scattered with cracks.

The inside of the house seemed a little dark because the windows were too small.

The so-called windows are actually just a few wooden sticks.

With the kindness of the people in the village, they even used animal skins to cover Jiang Lin.

Other than that, there was only a "bed" made of animal skins and a pile of weeds left in the room.

This is naturally very different from the environment Jiang Lin was in before.

But Jiang Lin didn't care at all.

Instead, as the night got darker, he lay down on the "bed".

Close your eyes and drift off to sleep.

Just like ordinary mortals.

The next morning.

Jiang Lin cleaned the courtyard.

I borrowed two knives, one large and one small, from the village chief.

Wu Zi was in the courtyard, chopping down trees with a knife.

The wall of the small courtyard was only half a person high, and the villagers passing by cast curious glances at Jiang Lin.

This young scholar from out of town has a different temperament from the villagers like them, both inside and outside.

But after I came here, I just chopped wood alone.

The villagers just thought it was strange.

Until the afternoon.

The sun sets in the west.

Jiang Lin, who was chopping wood in the small courtyard, glanced at the door as if he was aware of it.

Outside the door at this time.

A timid child was lying on his stomach, his little face was dirty, and there was a line of snot hanging in front of his nose.

He exposed half of his head and looked at Jiang Lin secretly.

Seemingly noticing that Jiang Lin was looking at him, he quickly hid his head behind the wall.

But soon.

He leaned out again.

only.

He also carried a carp weighing two to three kilograms in his hand.

"First...sir, this is the fish my father asked me to deliver..."

The child mustered up the courage to bring up the carp and show it to Jiang Lin.

See this.

Jiang Lin put down the knife in his hand.

He walked forward with a chuckle and took the carp from the child's hand.

Subsequently.

He smiled and said:

"You're here just in time to try out my new bench."

As he spoke, he waved to the side.

Among the wood on the side, there are clearly several wooden benches piled up.

The child looked around curiously.

Tentatively, he walked to the bench and sat down.

I swayed on the bench a few more times, experiencing the novelty of the bench.

See this.

Jiang Lin smiled and said nothing more.

He continued to lift the knife and chop wood.

at this time.

The child also cast his gaze on Jiang Lin's hand.

In the hands of this young gentleman, the original heavy wood.

It seems to have become particularly light.

The knife fell down and easily chipped away layer after layer of wood chips.

It quickly turned into a neat wooden board.

He was lost in thought.

Jiang Lin turned to look at him again.

"It's getting late. How about staying here and eating fish later?"

He didn't ask the child's name, but he acted very familiar with it.

But the child seemed a little restrained.

After hesitating for a long time, he shook his head at Jiang Lin.

"The food is ready at home!"

After saying that, he walked quickly towards the door.

Just halfway through, I seemed to think of something again.

He looked tentatively at Jiang Lin, still looking hesitant.

Jiang Lin smiled, having already seen what he was thinking.

"Tell your family to come early tomorrow."

"If there are other children in the village, they can come here to study."

The words fell.

The child seemed relieved and let out a sigh of relief.

He nodded heavily to Jiang Lin again.

This night.

Jiang Lin made a pot of fish soup using the carp that his children brought.

Taking advantage of the campfire, he continued to pick up wood and carve.

Until the bonfire died down.

Jiang Lincai put down the carved wood and returned to his room to sleep.

Early morning hours.

When Jiang Lin walked out of the house, he saw several awkward children standing outside the small courtyard.

Among them were men and women, all carrying various fish, crabs and other objects in their hands.

This is obviously their apprenticeship ceremony!

Jiang Lin laughed when he saw this.

Fish, crabs and other items are not uncommon in this village.

Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to draft water.

In the past, before the law of national destiny was fed back to the world, food was the most scarce food.

He collected the things the children were carrying and put them down.

Then he walked aside and placed the things he had carved in the past two days one by one.

Most people in this era actually sit on the floor.

but.

Jiang Lin still made a bench and table.

In the future, if these children want to study, their sitting posture will still be very important.

When the children around him saw what Jiang Lin was doing, they all stepped forward to help.

It only takes a while.

They arranged the benches and tables neatly in the courtyard.

From beginning to end, Jiang Lin never displayed any magical powers.

Just let everything about yourself be like an ordinary mortal.

but.

He has taught all the laws of the world in the past.

Under the feedback, even if you don't use your magical powers.

When doing things, he will be as familiar as a cook handling an ox.

Wait until all the children are seated.

Jiang Lin assigned the bamboo slips to them one by one.

"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast, the sun and the moon are waxing and waning, the stars and stars are arranged..."

"Cold comes and summer comes, autumn harvests and winter stores, the leap year is full of years, the law regulates the sun..."

"The clouds turn into rain, and the dew turns into frost..."

soon.

Under Jiang Lin's teaching, the whole courtyard.

Then the sound of reciting aloud gradually resounded.

Since then.

Jiang Lin, a teacher, gradually began to teach and educate people in this village.

During his spare time, he took his children to study together.

When farming is busy.

He would also stop classes and participate in the villagers' busy farming.

In the blink of an eye.

Three years have passed.

Jiang Lin remained as before, barely leaving this mountain village.

Everything in the world seems to have nothing to do with him.

He watched as the children grew older and taller.

After studying for the past three years, everyone has gained some temperament that is no longer childish.

The old village chief also came to find him.

After seeing Jiang Lin, he just sighed.

"Mr. Jiang, you have been relegated to our small village for three years."

"Don't you really want to think of another way out?"

His old face was full of complexity.

However, his body shape has not changed much from three years ago, nor has he become rickety.

Jiang Lin just smiled and shook his head.

He knew the old village chief's intentions, and most likely thought that he had failed in his official career and had to live in this small village.

In the past three years, some children from nearby villages have come to study with him.

Jiang Lin also accepted them all.

After all, the old village chief said nothing more and left with his hands behind his back.

But still full of sighs.

Another year later.

The old village chief came with a woman.

The woman asked Jiang Lin's age with a smile on her face.

After getting a vague reply from Jiang Lin.

Then he continued to ask.

"Did that gentleman ever have a wife?"

"Sir, your appearance and reputation are great!"

"Who within a radius of fifty miles has not heard of Mr.'s name?"

"I don't know how many little girls are secretly in love with Mr...."

Hear this.

Even Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel ashamed!

They are already planning to get married to him.

But Jiang Lin still declined the kindness.

Alone, alone.

Continue to teach in this small village.

A blink of an eye.

Ten years have passed by in a hurry. Jiang Lin’s courtyard has already been renovated and expanded with the help of villagers.

A canopy was also put up to protect it from rain and snow.

Nowadays, the people sitting in the courtyard are no longer just children.

There are more young people.

Most of these boys and girls were children who studied with Jiang Lin ten years ago.

Each and every one of them is slim and outstanding.

And these ten years.

Jiang Lin seemed to have forgotten his supernatural powers long ago and did not get involved in the world of mortals.

Just teaching and educating people.

but.

The boys and girls who studied with Jiang Lin were also vaguely aware of the extraordinary qualities of some gentlemen.

More than ten years have passed.

The old village chief also looked older.

Most of the people in the village showed signs of aging.

Only Mr. Jiang.

His appearance is still the same as when we first met him more than ten years ago.

Nothing has changed.

No one could tell the gentleman's true age.

This day.

Jiang Lin, with the boys and girls behind him, and accompanied by all the villagers, finally walked out of the village.

then.

The villagers who saw them off watched Jiang Lin and his party go away with reluctance.

They were in a hurry.

Came to the nearest county.

Jiang Lin reported the good list to the Daqin officials who came to inspect.

Then, these boys and girls were sent to the examination room.

They were waiting for the imperial examination and provincial examination outside the examination room.

Jiang Lin also temporarily settled in this county area.

at last.

A few days later.

The imperial examination results were released.

All the boys and girls rushed to Jiang Lin's side excitedly.

Convey the good news to Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin just smiled with relief and didn't say much.

After sending this group of boys and girls who he had watched grow up to a ceremony held by Da Qin in the counties.

Jiang Lin was alone again and rushed back to the village.

Bring this good news to the villagers.

He continued to teach in the village.

as usual.

in the following time.

He sent away batches of grown-up boys and girls.

And the first batch of boys and girls sent out by him gradually became famous in Da Qin.

This day.

Outside the originally quiet village, the sound of gongs and drums was suddenly heard.

The sound moves from far to near.

The villagers were startled by the noise and went out to check.

Then he saw a group of officials wearing Da Qin official robes and rushing over happily.

The old village chief looked at the battle in front of him and was too shocked to speak.

Followed by.

The villagers heard the leader's shouts.

"Congratulations to the new champion!"

"The new top scholar..."

In the small courtyard.

The sound of chanting could not help but resound.

as usual.

but.

Jiang Lin saw the old village chief and a group of villagers rushing over.

"Sir! Mr. Jiang!"

"You have taught a champion!"

"In our village, there is really smoke coming out of the ancestral graves!"

Jiang Lin listened to the good news from the villagers and smiled happily.

After some understanding.

He also knew which child it was.

It was the child who first came to study with a carp when he first entered this village.

"Xiao Shu hasn't been back for many years, right?"

He asked the old village chief with a smile.

The old village chief nodded, but his face was full of pride.

"Although Xiao Shu didn't come back in time, he still gave us something to give to our village!"

"This kid has been successful for a long time!"

"Over the years, I have been hearing rumors that there is a talented scholar Dong Zhongshu in Da Qin."

"I still can't believe that he is Xiao Shu from our village!"

Dong Zhongshu...

Jiang Lin's eyes moved slightly.

this moment.

He suddenly seemed to recall memories from many years ago!

The one who deposed Dong Zhongshu, who only respected Confucianism among hundreds of schools of thought? !

But according to the memory of the previous life.

Dong Zhongshu and the subjugated Great Qin were separated by decades.

This might be...

Is it also the influence of changes in destiny?

But these thoughts.

It just flashed in Jiang Lin's heart, and then quickly passed away.

Gradually.

Jiang Lin's face, which had always been as youthful as ever, at this moment, quickly became older at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Under the stunned gazes of the old village chief and all the villagers.

Jiang Lin soon turned into a middle-aged man who looked about forty years old.

just.

His eyes looked particularly stern.

The gentle look always makes people feel like spring breeze.

Only for a short period of time.

The astonishment on the faces of everyone around him quickly disappeared.

As if this is how it should be.

In their memories, Mr. Jiang has become older in these more than ten years.

Their expressions returned to their previous surprise.

After some celebration.

This quiet mountain village has returned to its normal state.

Jiang Lin also continued to teach in this small mountain village day after day, year after year.

Decades pass.

At noon one day.

A middle-aged man led his horse to the village, followed by two men holding swords.

He looked at the children playing at the entrance of the village, with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

One of the men walked up to the middle-aged man and bowed to ask.

"Sir, do you want to humble yourself and report..."

But he didn't wait until he finished.

The middle-aged man waved his hand.

He walked alone to the playful children with a complicated look on his face.

But a friendly smile soon appeared on his face.

"Whose children are you and how old are they?"

"Shouldn't you go to Xiangxuzhong to study?"

The children looked at the middle-aged man in front of them curiously, and then shook their heads.

"Our Mr. Jiang said that children as old as us should go play!"

"We have to wait another year before we can go to Mr. Jiang to study!"

Mr. Jiang...

Hear these children's words.

The middle-aged man pursed his lips.

It was like recalling some distant memory.

And this time.

The children on the side asked the middle-aged man again.

"Sir, where are you from?"

Hear this.

The middle-aged man gave a complicated smile and said nothing more.

But asked again.

"Mr. Jiang...is he still teaching at Xiangxu's place?"

After getting a positive answer.

The middle-aged man took a deep breath.

In his memory, Mr. Jiang should still look as young as ever.

these years.

When he was in Da Qin, he also inquired about Mr. Jiang.

but.

This Mr. Jiang of his seems to have never seen a trace of him in this world.

Can't find it at all.

It was not because they had suffered setbacks in their career, or because they had offended someone, as they had guessed in the past...

soon.

The middle-aged man quickly walked to Xiangxu's side.

Today's Xiangxu is also different from what he used to be at Zhongda.

Many houses have been added.

Even in this.

He also met many young people who, presumably after becoming successful in their studies, chose to come back to teach.

Just like Mr. Jiang in the past.

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and finally walked in.
