Hearing Suman ask, the children raised their shells in their hands. "We picked up a lot of shells. They all giggled and shouted.

The children ranged from large to young, the oldest in their teens, and the youngest estimated to be only five or six years old.

None of them had any formal education, and seeing that the teachers in the city were not as strict as their private school teachers in the country, they were all relaxed at the moment, and the classroom discipline seemed a bit chaotic for a while.

Su Man didn't care, and said with a smile: "Okay, when I was in science class before, I found that the students' hands-on ability was lacking, and we mainly did handicrafts in this class. ”

Looking at Su Man, who had not been seen for a long time, Li Wuxian also found it interesting.

"This girl has also grown up. ”

She gave a detailed lecture, guiding the students to do many colorful paintings and clay crafts one by one, and made all these shells into colorful shapes, and then glued them to the wooden wall in the back row of the classroom.

Li Wuxian turned out of the house and continued to wander aimlessly, feeling the natural way of heaven.

"Life, Death......"

Li Wuxian now looks at things from the two perspectives of life and death, and everything has a sense of freshness.

Wow!

A wave came, and Li Wuxian Yuan Shen shook slightly.

A fish is hit on the beach, bouncing and trying to get back into the sea.

"Sudden Death ......"

Li Wuxian walked over, he bent down, and tried to pick up the fish and throw it back into the sea with his hands, but obviously he couldn't.

He is the body of the primordial god, and unless he "takes away", he can't really interfere with reality.

It is said that the realm of the great master can be, but no one can prove it.

"Meow!"

A wild cat suddenly came up and pulled the fish with its paws, which seemed to be very amusing.

But at this moment, suddenly a wave rushed over, and the cat was swallowed into the sea by the waves, rolled a few times, and disappeared.

In between, life and death reversed.

Li Wuxian was slightly stunned.

He sighed and continued walking, and soon found a fishing boat, fishing in the sea.

On board was an old man and a young man, and it seemed that there was a father-son relationship.

The old man was the village chief who had smoked dry tobacco before.

Li Wuxian Yuanshen had a thought, floated beside the boat, and watched the fishermen and sons fishing with great interest.

The old man was slightly disabled, and all the fingers of his right hand were gone.

"Hey, it's coming! Daddy steadys the boat!" the young man looked happy and skillfully reeled in the net.

The net was so fruitful that the young man could not pull it for a while.

The village chief went to help, and it took a lot of effort for the father and son to put the net away.

"Remnant, useless!" the village chief seemed rather frustrated, and he almost couldn't maintain his balance and fell into the sea.

"Daddy, isn't there me? I'll take care of you! The seventh aunt in the west of the village has her arm blown up, and she can't live a good life?"

"Hey!" the village chief sat down with a gasp and lit a cigarette, "It's all the blame on the foreign dogs, otherwise why would we suffer this crime?"

The village chief took a break and said, "You said that the teacher came to our village to teach foreign languages before, what is the picture? Let our dolls be foreigners in the future? Now this Xiao Su teacher is teaching students to make shells, alas, these young people, all the blind toss!"

"Dad, you don't understand, you have culture, you have a good brain, and you can only win the battle when you meet foreigners. ”

"Hmph," the village chief said, "The master in the village is well educated, and it is useless to fight, and the foreigners will not be able to call him to shoot a bow, and his son is also good at learning, and he was admitted to a middle school before, and the result is ...... Alas, it's a pity for a good doll!"

Li Wuxian didn't know what to say when he heard this, and his figure flashed directly and returned to the door of the school.

When I first arrived at the school, I saw an old man dressed as a teacher eavesdropping at the base of the wall.

"This is the village master? Eavesdrop on what Suman is saying......

Li Wuxian was slightly curious and also walked into the classroom.

After most of the class, the students' collaborative work was finally completed.

Following Su Man's guidance, they finally completed what appeared to be a beautiful three-dimensional map, which Li Wuxian knew at a glance that it was a map of the territory of Gulan.

If you look closely, you will find that these maps are all arranged according to Suman's intention, with various patterns and smiling faces glued to the locations of some important cities.

Li Wuxian watched this scene silently, experiencing the breath of life of this civilian, and unconsciously, he felt a lot calmer.

"The door of life and death, to understand the artistic conception of life and death, this life can also be life, it is a peaceful daily life, as for death, it can also be understood in a different way......" Li Wuxian thoughtfully.

He is always trying to understand the artistic conception of life and death.

Life is vivid, it is life, it is life, it is a vigorous atmosphere, he faintly feels that he has grasped something, but he does not understand anything.

For him, he has experienced too much killing, but he has seen a lot of death, but he has not experienced what real "life" is.

Therefore, during this time, he wandered many places, all looking at the lives of ordinary people, hoping to inspire some insights.

Su Man saw that the work was completed, and then said: "Students, isn't the picture on this wall beautiful?"

The children all shouted that it was beautiful.

Su Man said again: "Does anyone know what this picture is?"

A little boy said, "Teacher, I know, this is a map of our country!"

Su Man smiled and touched the boy's head: "Xiao Yong, what you said is good, but have you noticed anything wrong with this map......

At this moment, Xiao Yong's sister, who had been picking up shells with Xiao Yong before, said to the pink and jade female doll:

"Teacher, why is there so many pieces missing from this map?"

"Yes, Xiaohui! Because our country has been occupied by foreigners. ”

"Then why are we occupied? Why don't we snatch it back?" Xiaohui is a child after all, and then said, "Ah Gong said that foreigners are all big villains, as long as they come again, Xiaohui will go and beat them!"

"Why?" Su Man was stunned, as if he remembered something, and said slowly: "The teacher used to have a very good friend who said that if you are backward, you will be beaten, and between countries is so cruel. Foreigners invade our country only because we are easy to bully. As long as we are strong, they will not dare to come. So what you have to do now is to study hard and practice martial arts well, the masters and leaders in the village are all very powerful people, you have to follow them and study hard. ”

After a while, Su Man said again: "However, classmates, don't be extreme, the good and bad people in this world can't be seen according to your eyes, and some compatriots seem to be good people, but they are actually big bad guys." In addition, are foreigners all bad people, not necessarily, your foreign language teacher, Ms. Lilith, is a good person!"

Li Wuxian was slightly stunned, when did this Lilith Ross come here? No wonder the village chief said something to teach foreign languages......

As for being beaten if he falls behind, Li Wuxian smiled slightly when he heard this, he still remembered saying it at the graduation ceremony of Yu Jinyi High School, but he didn't expect Su Man to remember it.

Xiaohui said: "Brother Xiaoyong said that Lilith is a foreign woman, we all hate her and don't learn foreign languages!"

Su Man knew that he couldn't tell these children, so he shook his head, "Okay, it's almost time, the next class is taught by the master of the private school, let's get out of class." ”

"Teacher, we love your lessons!"

Now the children are reluctant again, "Even if the foreign woman goes to class, the master is too fierce!"

"What the Master taught you is also very important, don't mess around......! Teacher Yang is actually from our country, her mother is from our country, and she is still from now! However, she has now transferred to other schools. Suman said.

The children all made a sound of annoyance, and then they felt that if they chose between the master and the foreign mother-in-law, maybe they would choose the foreign mother-in-law teacher, at least not as fierce as the master!

The master's temper has become more and more eccentric these days, often in a daze and not talking, and forcing everyone to increase their studies, and the children are afraid of him.

"You should take Master's lesson well, although science is important, but Chinese culture cannot be left behind!" Su Man repeated a little harshly.

The students all shouted: "Reciting poems all day long, how can it be interesting to do handicrafts?"

"Teacher, the principle of buoyancy and the principle of recoil force that you taught us before, it is very important to apply it in war, it is much better than Chinese studies!"

At this time, the bell rang outside.

"What kind of system is it to make a fuss, to make a fuss?"

A gray-haired old man, dressed in the clothes of an ancient private school, came over and coughed a few times at the door, apparently displeased when he heard the children's words, and then reprimanded.

This man is the Master.

Su Man smiled apologetically and picked up the textbook: "Okay, students, let's get out of class." ”

"Take a break, and you'll learn Mandarin later!" said the master again.

The students dispersed and went to the yard to play.

There are many facilities in this courtyard, which are equivalent to the function of a playground.

"Teacher Su, is your senior brother the Master Li Rentu of the Golden Cloud Gate?" Xiao Yong saw that Su Man had not gone far, and then he caught up and asked.

"I listened to what Ah Gong said. Teacher, they all admired him. Do you see my martial arts, can I enter Master Li's disciple as a true transmission?"

As he spoke, he threw a few punches, showing that he was also a martial arts practitioner.

"At your age, it's important to study, when Senior Brother Li Wuxian was as old as you, he hadn't started to learn martial arts, you were much stronger than him!"

Although Su Man's martial arts have not yet entered the professional stage, he naturally does not look down on such skills, and after praising Xiao Yong, he and his master nodded and were about to leave the hospital.

When Xiao Yong heard that he was stronger than Li Wuxian, he immediately danced with his eyebrows and bragged to his classmates.

Li Wuxian took a special look at this Xiao Yong, not to mention, this child's roots are still okay.

The master's own straight face suddenly squeezed out a smile:

"Miss Su, your class is good, but the children are still too young, and at this time, it is more useful to teach the truth of life than to teach science. By the way, Miss Su, speaking of which...... The old man also has a young son, who is dedicated to martial arts, and he was said to be an amateur eight-dan in the Wumeng test before, if you... If it's convenient, the old man wants him to worship your sect, is it okay? Don't worry, you can be accommodating, and you can be a disciple of the outer sect. ”

Su Manwan didn't expect that this master, who had always been unsmiling, would also beg for help, and she was a little embarrassed:

"Master, why do you want to learn martial arts? You can serve the country anywhere!"

"Serve the country, serve the country," the master was stunned and did not speak.

Su Man said: "Ahem, I'm just an outer disciple of the Golden Cloud Sect, I can't speak, when I meet Senior Brother Li, I'll ask on your behalf." ”

The master was overjoyed and said, "Good, good!"

Su Man nodded, walked away, and muttered to himself in an undetectable voice, "Senior Brother Immortal, where are you now?"

The master seemed to remember something, and followed: "Alas, girl, I have been observing you for a long time in the past few days, and I think that you are dedicated to education, which is different from those educators who worship foreign people. Your class is to teach by word and deed, and integrate the principles of being a man into an ordinary classroom, which is the same as the old man's actual idea, and you were wrongly blamed before.

You are a talent who understands the new learning of the West, you are young, you can come to our poor place to be a teacher, this mentality, perseverance, feelings, old decay are very admired, just like you said, this is also a kind of service to the country!"

Su Man smiled, "I don't deserve to be praised by my master..."

The master pondered for a moment, and then said: "I heard the notice issued by the county before, saying that we should cooperate with you to make an education census research report for mountain villages...... cough, now that I understand it, I have figured it out: this is a good thing, if you don't give up, you will listen to my lesson?"

It turned out to be a high school student teaching, Li Wuxian knew it, no wonder Su Man came all the way here.

In fact, what Li Wuxian didn't know was that now Lilith, Ji Yuqing, Su Man and others are all exerting their own strengths, some are teaching, some are participating in some patriotic propaganda activities, and everyone is doing their part for the country.

"Okay, then thank you, Master!" Su Man smiled.

As the bell rang, Master's class began, and Suman took a seat in the last row.

The students saw that the teachers in the city were also listening to the class, and the class was a little noisy for a while.

Unexpectedly, the Master kept watching the children frolicking and did not reprimand them with a straight face.

"Huh, why didn't the Master reprimand us today?"

"yes..."

"I'm in a daze again, Master has been like this a lot these days!"

Everyone was a little suspicious.

Gradually, the class became much quieter.

Gradually, the people noticed that the Master's eyes were full of tears.

"The Master wept..."

"Why?"

"Did we make the master angry?"

"Shhhh

For a while, everyone, including Su Man, was a little confused.

The master saw that the classroom was quiet, and then he choked up a little:

"Gaffe, hehe, the old man thinks of my eldest son. ”

"Before, he was sitting here listening to me, and he was sitting here...... Ahem, just a few days ago, he died in a battle with the foreigner's navy in the waters of Green Water City in Huiquan Province..."

Master's eldest son, sacrificed?

As soon as this sentence was said, everyone was speechless.

There was an immediate sense of depression in the classroom.

The children who were playing themselves were silent at this time.

In this way, he still wants his youngest son to learn martial arts to serve the country?

Su Man was the most emotional, and at this time he suddenly burst into tears, stood up, and bowed deeply.

"Master, I'm sorry..."

Xiaohui said in a low voice, before she shouted loudly that she didn't want to learn Mandarin.

These children, the oldest of whom are in their teens, do not understand national hatred and family hatred, but all of them are tearful, and an ignorant sadness spreads in their hearts.

Even Li Wuxian was shocked, how strong is this seemingly stubborn but caring old master for his students?

What kind of grief did he endure to make his own contribution to the inheritance of culture?

The so-called, the spring silkworm is dead to the end, and the wax torch turns to ash and tears begin to dry, that's what it says.

"Hum. ”

At this moment, Li Wuxian felt that the whole body of the Yuan Shen was shocked, and it seemed that the Yuan Shen had become much tougher.

Life and death happen all the time.

This is a campus of laughter and laughter, and hundreds of miles away, there is a battlefield of dead people at any time...

The Master's Son died, but the spirit of his Son lived in the Master's heart.

Li Wuxian slightly understood, he felt that the door of life and death was not far away.

"Master, I'm sorry!"

At this moment, many children imitated Suman and bowed to the Master.

The master waved his hand and said, "This master is old, you are right, I actually have no knowledge. Decades ago, the state canceled the imperial examination, Master I didn't catch up with the good times, I didn't accept the green and yellow, in fact, I didn't even pass the test before, as for this new Western study, I don't know anything, not as good as Teacher Xiao Su at all. What I can teach you is actually very little, very little. ”

"Master—" Suman wanted to speak out for his master's learning.

The master waved his hand to stop him, but continued: "A few days ago, I learned of my child's death, and it was a night, and I felt ...... The sky is falling. But the next day, hehe, the bell rang, and I thought, I still have to go to class!"

"I'm sorry, Master. ”

Everyone was teary-eyed, and many children silently swore in their hearts at this time that they must attend class well.

The master wiped his face quietly with his sleeve, and his cuffs were stained with some chalk ash, so that there was an additional ash mark on his face that extended from the corner of his eye, which was a mixture of tears and chalk ash.

"What I was going to talk about that day was an ancient poem—"

The master picked up the book in his hand and set it up.

"I pinched the yellowed old book and looked at you in the audience. For a while, I was a little 'drawing my sword and looking around'.

"You know, in my eyes, what I have been thinking about in those days is the beacon fire of the battlefield, the steel cannon, the giant ship and the rocket..."

"But the book in my hand wants me to speak about the Psalms of 8,000 years ago......

"Huh, is it ridiculous?"

The master paused, and his voice was sonorous:

"Not really!"

"I figured out at that moment why I was talking. ”

He held the book high, his hands trembling with excitement, and the yellowed book seemed to be sacred.

"That's because there is a clear spring bubbling through the hills in the poem, and there is a big river rushing down, which is our delicate and broad mind......"

"That's because there are willows on the waterfront in the poem, there are deer singing in the wilderness, there is the desert smoke, there are small bridges and flowing water, that is our beautiful and vast territory......"

"That's because there are autumn soldiers on the battlefield in the poem, and there is a sword light cold nineteen continents, which is our unyielding and fighting spirit......"

"That's because, in the poem, there is a country that is broken by mountains and rivers, and that is our country!"

The Master spoke in one breath, gasping slightly, and his hands trembled.

Some of the older children understood it with a solemn expression, and some of the younger ones did not understand it, but they also suddenly felt that the ancient psalms were also beautiful and important.

The Master's white robe hung on his rickety body, swaying in the breeze like a flag, he continued:

"Early that morning, I stood on the stage, looking at your cheerful smiling faces in the audience, and I swore to the master, I must continue to speak, I will talk until death!"

"It's beautiful, it's a language from 8,000 years ago, it's from the culture of our ancestors, it's an eternal heritage. ”

The Master's voice gradually rose up: "I want to tell you, children! There is something in this world that is stronger than guns, greater than power, and wider than territory!"

"That's culture – as long as the national language is still there, the country is still there, and we still have a place to live. ”

"The country is breaking mountains and rivers!"

The crowd was stunned for a while, and after a long time, the master muttered to himself:

"I must speak, I must speak!"

His voice faded, and he hid his face with his hands.

Li Wuxian listened quietly while this master spoke.

This master is a little pedantic, but he has a reading popularity.

He has transcended life and death itself.

"Only by putting life and death aside can there be panic!"

Li Wuxian benefited a lot, and in a place where no one could see, he bowed slightly to his master.

This early morning is just an ordinary early morning, and history will not remember this day.

Li Wuxian plans to return to Tiejian Mountain, let the Yuan Shen return to his position, and then open the door of life and death
