Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 9: First Grade Primary School Textbook: Star Attraction
It's really late.
However, the Tang Family Castle really respected teachers and education, and no matter how late it was, Tang Zheng still successfully got the flowerpot he wanted.
After Tang Xiaotang left, Tang Zheng took out the extravagant Kao from his bag.
"My little darling, let me take a look. Is you damaged?" Tang Zheng looked at the king of flowers carefully.
Not broken.
Kao is Kao after all.
After going through so much hardship , it is still as bright as new, without any sign of withering.
Of course, Tang Zheng’s skills in processing and preserving materials are also a major factor in Kao’s ability to maintain freshness!
"Come." Tang Zhengfan locked the door, rolled up his sleeves, and worked hard to add soil and transplant plants.
Moonlight poured in from the rear window and fell on the king of flowers, who was living a life of extravagance. The seven layers of petals were bathed in silver light and unfolded little by little. Although not as gorgeous and dazzling as in the daytime sunlight, they seemed to have a charm that was unique to the night.
"Alive." Although Tang Zheng did not bring any life skills with him, he still had experience. As soon as he saw the unfolded petals, he knew that the king of flowers should not die.
He recalled the layout of the courtyard again.
There is a hall in the middle of the courtyard, and behind the hall is the study, which is where Tang Zheng is now. Next to the study is a bedroom, which is not large but relatively clean.
Tang Zheng thought about it, placed Hua Wang on the windowsill of his bedroom, and pulled a screen over to cover it slightly.
After washing up and lying on the soft bed, Tang Zheng finally calmed down for the first time.
Xingyao Continent...
Astrology...
Nine Star Fate Palace...
As soon as he arrived in this strange world, he encountered crises one after another. There was no protection for a novice, and there was too much information for him to digest and organize.
"Xingyao Continent, Kyushu and the four seas, the aristocratic families are divided, and what I have come into contact with now is probably just a drop in the bucket."
"Astrology. Tian Meng said that even a beggar will have his own astrology when he is born... Then, what about outsiders? What about me? It won't be instant noodles, mobile phones, game consoles or something like that, right?"
"Nine Star Fate Palace... Hmm, this really stumps me. I've never heard of it before..."
After a quick review and before he could think too much about it, Tang Zheng knew that this difficult choice of his would be filled with difficulties.
However, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
This is what we call "strange"!
This is what we call "unknown"!
These two words represent a life that is difficult and dangerous in itself, but on the other hand, it also represents a life with countless possibilities!
What are countless possibilities?
Let's just say something very vulgar. If he chooses to be reborn, even if he becomes the richest man in the world, he will still grow old, get sick, and die...
However, in this Xingyao Continent, for the truly powerful ones to transcend life and death is not a problem at all!
"It's important to be alive, because if you die without spending all your money, it will be too painful..." Tang Zheng subconsciously had this thought, and then he slapped his head, "Fuck! Tang Zheng, what a loser you are!"
He has not forgotten the line of words that have been engraved on the game cabin for ten years, and it is impossible for him to forget it!
[One day, I will no longer run for money. At that time, I will let the whole world remember who I am! ——Tang Zheng. 】
If his purple gold belt could be opened, the first half of the curse would be almost fulfilled. Then, could he accomplish the second half and give himself an explanation?
The smile on Tang Zheng's face gradually faded, and his eyes moved to the purple gold belt placed beside the pillow.
"Don't think too deeply about it. Once you think about it, all the problems will come up." Tang Zheng, a player who specialized in various difficult tasks in his previous life, was having a headache. "Is there such a thing as 'blue' in this world? What can be used as 'blue'? Are there any space props? How to open the space props..."
With a bunch of headache-inducing questions in his mind, he was thinking... and actually fell asleep.
Having a funny attribute also has its benefits!
No matter whether the sky falls or the earth collapses, I can still eat well and sleep well.
It was a quiet night.
Tang Zheng did not dream about the stars or purple gold.
What he dreamed of was that he took out the remaining half bowl of instant noodles from his refrigerator, heated it up and ate it.
"What a promising future!" The next morning, Tang Zheng was filled with gloom when he recalled his dream from last night.
…
Tang Xiaotang got up very early.
She went to the library to look for books before dawn, without even having a bite of breakfast. After finding the books, she quickly brought them to Tang Zheng.
Tangjiabao has migrated many times, and most of the books it carried were martial arts classics. Moreover, they became less and less with each migration. Other poems and historical stories were even rarer, and it was not easy to find useful ones.
Tang Xiaotang picked a book called "Poetics", a book called "Explanation of Chinese Characters in the Empire", and a few historical books like "The Spring and Autumn History of the Purple Gold Empire". There were also a few novels, but after thinking about it, she decided not to give them to Tang Zheng.
When Tang Xiaotang delivered the book, Tang Zheng had just gotten up and had eaten the breakfast that was delivered by someone special. At this moment, he was doing radio gymnastics in the yard...
Tang Xiaotang raised her hand and threw the book out!
Tang Zheng's eyelids jumped when he saw it, and he pounced forward to catch it.
Unexpectedly, the stack of books rose and fell steadily in the air, drawing a perfect arc and landing in the center of the stone table in the courtyard!
"I...go!" If Tang Zheng didn't have such great agility, he would have crashed headfirst into the stone table.
"Ahahahahahaha..." Tang Xiaotang burst into a series of face-saving laughter, "Master, what are you doing?"
"Little girl!" Tang Zheng gritted his teeth, sat beside the table, and started flipping through the pile of books.
The characters are in traditional Chinese, so there is basically no reading difficulty.
The writing style and poetry structure are basically the same as what he has learned. If there must be any difference, it is probably because this world has been in chaos for many years. Although scholars are respected, force is still supreme in general. The study of poetry and miscellaneous studies has been reduced again and again, and any slightly complicated things such as prosody, symmetry, format, etc. are no longer seen.
However, some historical books are quite interesting and help Tang Zheng understand this unknown world more quickly.
Tang Xiaotang sat aside and saw that he had been reading for a long time without saying anything, so she couldn't help asking, "How is it? Can these books be used?"
Tang Zheng raised his head and asked, "How old are the children I want to teach?"
"From three to thirty years old..."
“…”
"What's wrong?"
"Are you sure you can still call someone a child when you're thirty?" Tang Zheng stroked his forehead and shook his head, "No, no, no, wait a minute, that's not the point ..."
The point is, he has to teach from kindergarten class to graduate school?
one person!
God swears that he didn’t even complete nine years of compulsory education!
He is not Ba Jin, not Leonardo da Vinci, not a great scholar in any field. He is just a otaku who eats instant noodles and plays games!
"What's the problem?" Tang Xiaotang looked puzzled. "If you have any difficulties, just tell me. I'll take care of it!"
Tang Zheng was still thinking about how to teach from kindergarten to graduate school, but when he opened his mouth, he said, "How much per month?"
Tang Xiaotang thought it was a big problem, but when she heard it, she let out a long sigh: "Thirty silver coins a month! Food and lodging included!"
"Okay, and..."
"Just say it!"
"Aren't there any enlightenment textbooks like the Three Character Classic or the Thousand Character Classic?"
"What are those..."
"An enlightenment textbook is, um." Tang Zheng thought about how to express it, "It is the first book a child will read in his life!"
After hearing this, Tang Xiaotang said "Oh" and looked suddenly enlightened.
Then, he turned around and took it.
Facts have proved that there was definitely a huge misunderstanding in the communication between Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang!
About a quarter of an hour later, Tang Xiaotang brought him a small bookcase with three words written on it - "Star Attraction". When Tang Zheng opened it, he burst into tears.
painting!
The small box is filled with comic books!
Not a single word.
It is indeed the first book a child has ever read in his life!
"I've put this set of Star Attractions away for many years." Tang Xiaotang stroked the small bookcase. "After I lit up my first life palace at the age of twelve, I no longer needed it. If you think it's useful, I'll give it to you."
"Star Attracting Style... In this way, it should be an introductory textbook for cultivating star power..." Tang Zheng flipped through the comic strip and listened to Tang Xiaotang's description. He could roughly guess what this comic strip was about.
"Master, do you recognize all the words on it?" Tang Xiaotang flipped through a few history books and could only recognize about 70% of them.
"Of course..." Tang Zheng's face was just beginning to show a hint of pride.
"No wonder the Master only has time to start practicing star power now!" Tang Xiaotang was suddenly enlightened again.
“……”Tang Zheng decided to shut up.
Although he had long been accustomed to the fact that he could not be handsome for more than three seconds, now, let alone three seconds, even one second was a question mark!
Tang Xiaotang straightened her clothes and stood up: "The primary martial arts training ground is at the easternmost part of Tangjiabao. There is a formation drawn with purple gold dust, which will help you lay a solid foundation. If you want to practice the Star Attracting Style, you must go there!"
"I'm 22 years old now. Is it too late to practice?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tang Xiaotang looked at him with disdain. "As long as it's something you want to do, it's never too old! But if you're not determined to do something, being old is of course a good excuse!"
"Really?" Tang Zheng felt a little warm in his heart.
"Come on!" Tang Xiaotang smiled, and her youthful eyes curved into a crescent. "If you don't understand anything, you can ask me anytime!"
Tang Xiaotang spent the whole morning looking for things for Tang Zheng. She was so busy that she didn't even have a bite of porridge. After she finished speaking, she said goodbye.
After she left, Tang Zheng opened the small bookcase again and looked through the comic books again.
"Star Attracting Style" is not a martial arts secret book, but should be regarded as a universal enlightenment textbook in Xingyao Continent. There are seventeen volumes in total, including "Seeing Astrological Patterns", "Flow of Star Veins", "Attracting Stars into Life", and a brief introduction to the characteristics of the fourteen main stars.
Tang Zheng did not read the others for the time being. He first opened the first and thinnest book on top, "Astrological Patterns"!
