Chapter 132 This Scholar Teaches and Kills Monsters

Xiao Mo walked into the classroom and asked He Yeye to leave. Only then did the children quiet down.

Xiao Mo first taught them some basic Confucian etiquette.

The children are very smart and find it very novel, so they learn very quickly.

Xiao Mo asked them to introduce themselves again, get to know their preferences, and remember their names.

Finally, Xiao Mo gave them a test to see how many words they knew.

Among the dozen or so children, the one who knew the most words was the little girl who had just saluted Xiao Mo outside the school.

Her name was Xu Yuerou. She knew most common characters and had even learned some Confucian classics.

Some children are only seven years old and don’t understand a single word.

But it’s not a big problem, just teach yourself slowly.

Anyway, if nothing unexpected happens, I will stay in the Demon-Suppressing City for a long time.

Xiao Mo distributed the textbooks he had written last night to the children.

The textbook does not only cover the subject of Xinxue. Xinxue only occupies a very small part, and it is the most superficial and easy-to-understand part.

The textbooks mainly contain Confucian classics, as well as some easier-to-understand content such as Taoism, Buddhism, and Mohism.

Learning is never achieved overnight.

Just start from the basics and gradually move on to the advanced. Don't be in a hurry.

The sound of Xiao Mo's lecture came from the classroom and slowly surrounded the courtyard.

In the classroom, every child listened attentively, and even if they didn’t understand, they racked their brains to try to understand.

Outside the classroom, the big guy was sitting on the ground. He didn't care what Xiao Mo was saying at all. He just looked at the white clouds swaying in the sky.

On the windowsill, He Yeye supported herself with her little hands, leaning sideways to watch Xiao Mo's lecture, her little feet swaying gently, and the red rope bell jingling.

Near noon, Xiao Mo closed the textbook and said to the children, "Let's end today's class here."

The children stood up and saluted using the etiquette Xiao Mo taught them: "Thank you for your hard work, sir."

"Thank you for your hard work, students." Xiao Mo bowed in return.

"get out of class is over."

After school, the students filed out and returned to their normal ways.

Xiao Mo packed up his textbooks and walked out of the classroom. He Yeye was already waiting outside.

The two walked out of the courtyard together, with the big guy following behind them.

"Are you really a Confucian scholar?" He Yeye asked Xiao Mo while walking on the street.

Xiao Mo nodded: "It's genuine, this is my ID card."

"Then shouldn't you be teaching something about 'zhihuzheya'? But why are you teaching everything? You've only taught a little bit of the philosophy of the mind."

Xiao Mo smiled and said, "Who says that Confucian scholars can only teach Confucian knowledge? And who says that Confucian knowledge is only about 'zhihuzheya'?"

"Then why don't you just talk about your heart studies?"

"The study of the mind is just one branch of learning, similar to other branches of learning. I will teach them the Confucian classics and some branches of learning that I understand somewhat. The study of the mind is just one branch of learning, and it should not be the only branch of learning for them."

"." He Yeye's brow twitched, "You scholar, you are really weird."

"Then will the city lord throw me into the river to feed the fish?" Xiao Mo asked with a smile.

"What do you think of the name I gave to the school?" He Ye Ye suddenly asked, feeling that it was completely unrelated.

"Uh..." Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment, then said against his will, "What a good name."

"How is the handwriting?" He Yeye asked again.

"It looks beautiful and energetic, just like a flying dragon and a dancing phoenix, and it has quite a charm." Xiao Mo continued to praise against his will.

"Hehe." He Yeye raised her chin proudly, jumped on her little feet, and sat on the giant's shoulders. The giant strode towards the City Lord's Mansion. A voice came from behind the giant, "I see that you have taught me well today, so I won't throw you into the lake to feed the fish."

"Thank you, Lord City Lord, for sparing my life."

Xiao Mo smiled, bowed and saw the city lord off, then returned to his own courtyard.

From then on, every day at noon, Xiao Mo would go to the yard by the lake to teach the children to read.

Gradually, in addition to the dozen or so children at the beginning, more and more children came to the "University Hall" to attend classes.

Xiao Mo never refused any of these students.

In the end, because there were too many students, Xiao Mo had no choice but to ask the students to move their desks and chairs to the yard and hold classes outdoors.

Among these children, Xiao Mo felt that there were indeed a few good readers.

One of them was the little girl Xu Yuerou.

The other two little boys were named Li Man and Zeng Songshi.

These three children are all ten years old. They are not only smart but also hardworking. After school, they will find Xiao Mo to ask their questions.

Xiao Mo patiently answered their questions and said that if they had any questions, they could come to his yard at any time.

Of course, there are some children who really can't continue reading.

Xiao Mo did not force them to come. As long as He Yeye agreed, they didn't have to come.

In comparison, He Yeye did not miss any class.

While teaching, Xiao Mo was also organizing his knowledge, and writing "The Combined Interpretation of Knowledge and Action" word by word.

After the demon clan and Wanfa Tianxia officially went to war, they would attack the Demon Suppression City almost every few days.

The Demon-Suppressing City will also choose to take the initiative to fight the enemy.

Xiao Mo knew that the demon clan wanted to test the depth of the Demon-Suppressing City and look for flaws and opportunities.

Isn’t it the same for the Demon-Suppressing City?

Every time Xiao Mo went to the battlefield, he was always the one rushing to the front.

And just as He Yeye said, the demon world has already noticed Xiao Mo. When Xiao Mo appears, there will be demon cultivators who will attack and kill him.

If it was a demon from the same realm, He Yeye would not care.

But if the cultivators from the upper three realms come and bully the weak, He Yeye will not be polite to them.

Xiao Mo teaches the children of Zhenyao City to read, and He Yeye protects Xiao Mo as tuition.

Gradually, Xiao Mo's reputation spread more and more in the Demon-Suppressing City.

In the north of the Demon-Suppressing City, more and more people know about it.

By the lake, there was a gentleman.

Whenever a war broke out, he would go down to the city to eliminate the demons.

Whenever the war ended, he returned to the city to teach.

Four thousand years later, the demon-suppressing city.

The girl was walking in the city while eating candied haws, and a three-meter-tall giant followed her.

It seems that no matter how much time passes, the girl will always look like this and will never grow up.

As she walked, the girl came to a villa by a lake.

The three words "University Hall" are written on the plaque in front of the courtyard gate.

However, this door plaque is so rotten that it seems that it will break into sawdust if it is touched with even a little force.

"Lord City Lord?"

Just as He Yeye was staring at the wooden plaque in a daze, a woman walked out of the courtyard.

"Yuerou, what are you doing here?" He Yeye asked.

"I come to the academy regularly to clean it." Xu Yuerou said, "What's this, Lord City Lord?"

"Just taking a casual walk." He Yeye shook his head. "By the way, I heard you are going to the Confucian Academy."

"Yes." Xu Yuerou nodded, her eyes firm as she spoke, "Li Man and Zeng Songshi have both been enshrined as 'companion saints'. Together with Dean Shang Jiuli of Bailu Academy, they want to clear our teacher's name. I want to help them. The last thing that should be erased in the world of all laws is our teacher's name!"

"Rectify the name? Haha."

He Yeye smiled, patted the big guy, turned and left, his voice echoing in the night.

"The Confucian Academy is not qualified to clear Xiao Mo's name.

Your teacher's name will forever be engraved on the stone tablet of the Great Wall, and no one can erase it."
