Rebirth of the Legend of the Red Age

Chapter 18, Talented Teacher Kong
In a blink of an eye, Wang Li has been in school for a while. This morning, his homeroom teacher, Mr. Kong, teaches a class, and all the students in his class like his class very much.

The reason is very interesting. It is because their teacher Kong, although a man, is always very polite to others and speaks softly. He has rarely been seen talking loudly or arguing with anyone.

This is very rare in this era. To be honest, even the quality of today's teachers is not necessarily very high. After all, they are elementary school teachers.

There were even fewer educated people in the Republic of China, and those who could become elementary school teachers were not necessarily very educated; they might just be outstanding in some aspect.

What surprised Wang Li was that Mr. Kong’s lectures were not as rigid as other teachers of this era. He never held a book in his hands, and seemed to remember what he was going to say. His lectures were very organized, which gave the students a completely different feeling and experience.

As Wang Li came into contact with Teacher Kong, he discovered more and more differences between him and ordinary people. For example, when he walked, he basically did not make too much noise, and his steps were basically consistent.

All his movements seemed to be professionally trained, and there was basically nothing too out of the ordinary. This made Wang Li wonder if he was an enemy spy there, but then he thought, which enemy spy would be so stupid as to disguise himself as so eccentric? Isn't this just looking for trouble?
The relationship between Wang Li and Teacher Kong became better and better with their constant contact. Teacher Kong was very caring towards him, perhaps because Wang Li was the youngest, or perhaps because Wang Li was more sensible.

This made Wang Li pay more attention to him. During a meeting with Zhao Qiang, he asked him to help check Mr. Kong's background.

The result made Wang Li dumbfounded. Mr. Kong's original name was Kong Shunliu, and he was 22 years old. Yes, it was such a rustic name. The most amazing thing was that he actually came from the north, and he had been a personal eunuch of the pseudo-emperor in the north. This news was undoubtedly shocking.

It turned out that when Mr. Kong was very young, his traitor uncle hired someone to castrate him and sold him into the palace to be a eunuch. His knowledge and behavior habits were developed at that time, and many people in the north knew about his story.

Therefore, he had no way to live there, so he moved to Kyoto when the White Party ruled Kyoto. Using the knowledge he learned from the fake emperor, he became a Chinese teacher in this elementary school, and now he is even the head teacher.

Wang Li found that he had strong management skills, and his habit of serving others was even stronger. Wang Li believed that if it were still a feudal dynasty, he would eventually become the chief eunuch. Unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time.

He did not tell anyone about the results of the investigation because it involved a person's privacy and no one wanted to think about that disgraceful history.

But Wang Li knew that if Teacher Kong continued to teach here, he would be very miserable during the storm.

Therefore, whether he cherishes talents or sympathizes with him, Wang Li will try to arrange for Teacher Kong to a safe place before the storm arrives.

He did this with some careful considerations. Teacher Kong is very capable, and if there is a chance in the future, he hopes that Teacher Kong will provide him with some help. Of course, this is all a story for later.

Right now, the most important thing is to practice Kung Fu well and adapt to life in Kyoto as soon as possible.

Thank you for your recommendations and collections.
