"Here comes the sword!"

One afternoon in the Li Family Academy in Xiangfu County.

A beautiful girl in her fourteenth year blinked her big moving eyes, held out her sword finger, and pointed it at the middle-aged man taking a nap in front of her.

Whoosh!

A sword made of wood flew out from behind her and pierced the man's chest.

The man was awakened by this sudden attack, and suddenly opened his eyes, and a laughter like silver bells filled his ears.

"Kekeke... Master! Still sleeping!"

"It's already past time and it's almost time for class. Why are you so sleepy!"

After the girl finished speaking with a smile, she pulled her accomplices behind her and ran out as if running away.

Li Xin sat up helplessly, picked up the wooden sword on the ground, and looked at the two young girls with a wry smile.

"Baozhu, Lingxuan! Two dead girls, dare to throw wooden swords at me? They are really rebelling against Tiangang!"

The two girls didn't dare to look back at all, they just giggled non-stop and ran out of the bedroom and disappeared.

Li Xin looked at their backs and felt lost for a while.

Unknowingly, another fourteen years passed.

It has been thirty years since he came to the Ming Dynasty.

The boy who served tea and water in the gambling shop has become a middle-aged man in his forties.

He grew a beard and grew older, but he was still unmarried and alone.

In thirty years, apart from winning three yuan in primary and secondary schools, there was no other achievement.

He opened a children's education school and taught for free.

In addition to teaching, he devoted himself to the mountains and rivers, learned some martial arts, and practiced some Taoism, which was considered a free and unrestrained life.

The two girls who just ran out, one named Zhang Yan, nicknamed Baozhu, are the apple of their neighbor Zhang Guoji's eye.

The other girl is regarded as his maid and adopted daughter, named Lu Lingxuan, who was bought from a poor family who had committed a crime.

When I first bought this girl, one of them wanted to see her pitifully, and the other was to keep her company for Zhang Yan.

After all, Li Xin is a middle-aged man who teaches a teenage girl all year round. No matter how good his reputation is, Li Xin will still be criticized.

Teach two at the same time, and then teach a bunch of poor kids from the county for free, and finally no one is talking about it.

Unknowingly, both girls have grown up.

Li Xin stood up with a sigh, shook his head, and picked up another letter on the table.

The letter was sent by a student from Kyoto who passed the examination and told about the recent major events in the DPRK.

Today is the first year of Taichang, 1620 AD.

It is also the forty-eighth year of Wanli.

A lot of big things happened this year.

On July 21, Emperor Wanli, who had reigned for forty-eight years, finally died of illness.

In the same month, Emperor Taichang Zhu Changluo succeeded to the throne, but this short-lived emperor was obviously not the son of destiny.

In less than a month in office, he passed away hastily due to the outbreak of the "Red Pill Case".

The death of the short-lived emperor shocked the Ming Dynasty!

Immediately after the "Gong Move Case" followed, Zhu Changluo's eldest son Zhu Youxiao was elected as the new emperor by the ministers, and he was the Tianqi Emperor.

However, the year name has not been changed, and this year is still the forty-eighth year of Wanli.

Li Xin understood that next year would be the first year of Tianqi, officially starting President Zhu You's seven-year reign.

And he...

After thirty years of lurking, it is finally coming to the stage of history.

Li Xin shook his head, feeling quite heavy in his heart.

As that day gets closer, he wonders whether he can meet the challenge of history?

He stood up, washed his face, changed his clothes and walked out of the bedroom.

"Sir, what classes are you going to teach this afternoon? Those students are still having fun..."

The maid Lu Lingxuan walked over tiptoe, not daring to raise her head to look at Li Xin who was like a master and a father.

She was the one who helped Bao Zhu wake up her husband just now, and now her face was very red.

"Afternoon, haha! Let them go home and rest. I will take you and Baozhu up the mountain." Li Xin casually ordered.

"what?"

Lu Lingxuan raised her head excitedly when she heard this, only to find that her husband had changed into a smart outfit and was carrying a big bow on his back. He looked very handsome.

"What, you don't want to go up to the mountains to play?"

Li Xin looked over with a smile, and Lu Lingxuan quickly shook her head.

"Yes, of course I do!"

"Sir has long said that he would take us out to play. Have you finally agreed today?"

The girl ran out excitedly, and after dismissing the group of students, she pulled in her best friend Baozhu.

"Hey!"

Baozhu, the future Empress of the Ming Dynasty Zhang Yan, was also impressed when she saw the master's outfit.

"Master! Why do you suddenly want to go up the mountain to play? I thought I wanted to check my homework. I didn't sleep well last night..."

Zhang Yan was talking cheerfully, without any sign of respecting her teacher, and walked over to pull the big bow on Li Xin's back.

This master is quick-thinking and bohemian, and he has watched her grow up without any airs of elders.

Zhang Yan spent much more time with her master than with her parents.

Over the years, he carefully taught her the Four Books and Five Classics, poems and songs, and even taught her many principles of life.

To be honest, emotionally speaking, they are really the same as their biological parents.

Li Xin looked at the girl helplessly and fondly.

"Stop talking nonsense! Let's go and set off! Take some dry food with you. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back tonight."

He subconsciously held a girl's hand and was about to leave the school and take a car to the barren mountains outside the city.

But as soon as they held hands, they realized that the two girls were adults and let go.

In ancient times, women did not reach adulthood at the age of eighteen, but at the age of fourteen. Many fourteen-year-old girls had already left the court.

It's really disrespectful and embarrassing to hold them back like this.

The two girls obviously realized something, their little faces turned rosy, and they ran out laughing.

Li Xin shook his head speechlessly and followed with a smile.

The three of them took an ox cart and left the county town. After driving for half an hour, they finally arrived at the barren hills outside the city.

He abandoned the bullock cart and climbed up with bare hands until it got dark before reaching the top of the mountain.

After reaching a high slope somewhere on the top of the mountain, it was completely dark.

The moon rose, and there was silence everywhere. It seemed that there were only three masters and disciples left in the world.

Lu Lingxuan and Zhang Yan looked at the dark moonlight, feeling a little scared.

"First...Sir, where are you taking us? Are we really going to spend the night here tonight?" Lu Lingxuan subconsciously approached Li Xin.

Zhang Yan was even worse. No one saw her anyway. She even hugged Li Xin's arm.

"Master! You are evil! You led us to the top of the mountain at night, did you deliberately scare us?"

"I heard that there was a big harmful insect in the mountains recently, and it ate a lot of passers-by. Let's..."

Before Zhang Yan could finish her words, she immediately turned into a crow.

Roar……

A tiger roar suddenly came from the mountains and forests.

For a moment the entire mountain seemed to tremble.

Followed by.

A beautiful tiger suddenly appeared from the woods, looking hungrily at the three ingredients in front of it.

The two girls didn't expect the tiger to actually appear. They were so scared that their faces turned pale and they got closer to their master Li Xin.

It’s terrible!

There really is a tiger.

Li Xin smiled lightly and waved his hands to signal the two girls not to panic.

He took out the horn-shaped bow behind him, stepped onto a boulder, and laughed loudly.

"Orb, Lingxuan! Keep an eye on it!"

"I will teach you my last lesson today!"

The final lesson?

The two girls were stunned for a moment, wondering what the master meant.

"Teacher, when you face desperate situations in the future..."

"courage!"

After Li Xin finished speaking sternly, he drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot out the sharp arrow in his hand with a whoosh.
