Zhang Yan has no culture, and is only as good as compulsory education mass-produced defective products on earth. At most, he dabbled in some unpopular knowledge of Taoism. But after he arrived in the Desolate Heaven Territory, he would always dig out many of the things he had learned before from the depths of his memory, study them carefully, find them useful, and remember the past.
At this moment, Zhang Yan felt that the situation he was in could be compared with a poem by Zheng Xie.
Stay firm on the green hills and never relax,
The roots were originally in the broken rock.
Still strong despite countless hardships,
The wind blows from east to west, north and south.
I used to listen to my master recite this poem when I was traveling around the world to comfort myself. As a disciple of Longhu Mountain, I was running around all day just for a bite to eat, and even went to the well to fight upside down.
Completely different from Zhang Yan's mentality at the time of "it doesn't matter, we're all just making ends meet anyway". Zhang Yan's master cared very much about his identity as a disciple of Longhu Mountain, and he also felt that he had ruined Longhu Mountain's prestige due to his own livelihood. Feeling ashamed and humiliated. I can only persevere with some mental self-comfort and paralysis. In the end, it was due to the long-term alcohol anesthesia that his body collapsed, and he died in his early sixties.
Influenced by his former master, Zhang Yan is also very familiar with Zheng Xie's poem. In the past, the master used it to comfort the persistence in the heart and the persistence of Taoism. Now he uses it to compare his situation and his confidence to transcend this world.
Liu Renchuan's kindness was also the kindness given by Jiangwu Academy. To be honest, it was very sincere, and it did not come with any harsh conditions. It didn't even mention aspects like bone-strengthening pills and weapon-making. In other words, as long as Zhang Yan agrees to become a formal instructor directly under the Jiangwu Academy, the Jiangwu Academy will fully protect him. What Zhang Yan needs to pay is what he should do as a teacher.
But Zhang Yan finally refused. The main reason is not that he is worried about being manipulated or restrained by the other party, but because he and Jiangwuyuan are essentially not the same person. The destination may be the same, but the path chosen is completely different. After temporarily borrowing this identity to get through the weak stage, Zhang Yan still wants to follow his own path.
Why don't you give it a try and see if you can achieve the legendary lofty cultivation realms in the Taoist sect?
In such a world that looks like a fertile new land to Daomen, how can there be no presence of Daomen?
Since it is still difficult to change the weak situation of the human race by relying on warriors, why not try another way?
Anyway, here we are, these are the roads Zhang Yan is prepared to take. And he has been accumulating strength for these goals. Now it's just that the speed of saving has been accelerated a lot because of the cheating of the gang with this world. In essence, it was still within Zhang Yan's plan.
But some things often surprise Zhang Yan. He also often adjusts his plans according to changes in circumstances.
It was as if he had not expected that the so-called Holy Land would mobilize an army and send so much meritorious spiritual energy to him. He had not expected it beforehand. Zhang Yan did not expect that Fang Tiandi, like the Wild Sky Domain, could help cheat. This resulted in him returning to Langyuan City, still a few days short of a year, but he had already crossed a realm that many monks could not reach in their lifetime. His plans were constantly changing and increasing in speed due to these unexpected changes.
The sudden incident was not limited to the above, but also Luo Changshan, who had recently rushed back from Xiangkou to look for Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan never expected that Luo Changshan would propose the concept of "academy". At first he thought it was a bit outrageous. But later when he heard Luo Changshan say that the confidence in this move came from his ability and his current status in the martial arts academy, Zhang Yan immediately reacted and even felt that this seemed to be an opportunity he had been looking for.
Perhaps there is no better opportunity than this.
So Zhang Yan quickly told Luo Changshan some of his thoughts. Use the influence of "getting rid of the mainstream school of thought" as a breakthrough point to persuade the other party to minimize the focus on recruiting students, and make a fuss about those children who have not yet completed their elementary schooling, or are just about to start their elementary schooling.
Zhang Yan has his own considerations. The younger the child, the stronger his ability to accept new things. Otherwise it will become weaker. It is said to be enlightenment, but the enlightenment readings also have the meaning of instilling some inherent common sense in the wilderness. For example, many contents about warriors made Zhang Yan sneer. The human race in the Wild Sky Realm still has a too narrow understanding of power.
Luo Changshan didn't agree with it at first, because enlightenment would involve many things. And in the common sense of the Wild Sky Realm, people who have never been enlightened are not qualified to be scholars. And Luo Changshan felt that the miscellaneous academy he wanted to run was just a place for learning, so how could he let a group of big-ass kids get involved?
However, with Zhang Yan's repeated suggestions and the importance he paid to Zhang Yan, Luo Changshan finally gave Zhang Yan a place in the event. At least one, at most ten. Within this range, Zhang Yan can freely recruit students. Even enlightenment matters can be left to Zhang Yan. If it is effective, this method will be followed by the academy later.
This is not the first time that Zhang Yan has seen the "stubbornness" and "hypocrisy" of these scholars from the miscellaneous school lineage. Not only Luo Changshan was like this, but Zhang Yan felt that almost all scholars in the miscellaneous field were like this to a greater or lesser extent during the previous two tea gatherings.
I'm used to it, and it doesn't matter. Zhang Yan's biggest goal was to take in a few serious students under the guise.
Luo Changshan moved quickly. After discussing with Zhang Yan, they searched for the location of the academy near Langyuan City.
First of all, not in the city. Zhang Yan didn't understand why, but Luo Changshan replied, "The city is too impetuous and not a place for learning." Zhang Yan couldn't react for a long time. I don’t understand how I came to the conclusion that “I am impetuous in the city”. In the end, it can only be attributed to Luo Changshan's habit of liking quietness and mountains, so he tended to build the academy on the outskirts of the city.
You can't just build a thatched hut in the mountains and accept students, right?
So Luo Changshan found a village in the suburbs of Langyuan City and spent money to buy a large house in the village. It's said to be a crime. The original owner was an official in Langyuan City. Now he was implicated in Wu Yuan's case. He lost his head, his family was separated, and the house was confiscated and sold as criminal property. Because the location of this house is very good, not far from Langyuan City, with mountains in the back and a river in front, the scenery is pleasant, so the selling price is high.
However, no matter how high the price was, it was just like that in front of Luo Changshan. He didn't even ask the price and just made a decision to buy it.
The school building is finalized and still needs a series of renovations. Once everyone is here, you can officially hang up the plaque and start accepting students. It will also mark the beginning of a new path for the miscellaneous studies here in Nanyuan Kingdom that has never been taken before. The anxiety and expectation made the already gray-haired Luo Changshan seem to be filled with special energy, and he seemed to look much younger.
