Jing Ke patted his chest and said.

Ye Chen continued: "It's not hard to find a teacher to pass on the text, but in this chaotic world, you still need some skills to save your life, so I plan to find someone to teach the children some self-defense skills.

But you also know that most of those warriors who walk the rivers and lakes today are not interested in doing such a thing.Moreover, although there are many martial arts practitioners in the world, most of them are mixed with good and bad people, and there are many vicious people. It is very difficult to find suitable and reliable people. "

Hearing this, Jing Ke also nodded, as a well-known ranger, he knew very well the virtues of those people in the Jianghu.There are definitely very few people who have a heart of benevolence and righteousness and are willing to do this.

Thinking of this, he also frowned slightly, but then his eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother Ye, what do you think of me?"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Brother Jing means..."

Jing Ke said with a smile: "Anyway, I don't have anything serious to do. Why don't I teach those children no martial arts? Maybe I meet a few good seedlings who can pass on the master's mantle?"

"Brother Jing is really willing?"

Ye Chen asked.

Jing Ke nodded and said, "I, Jing Ke, keep my word and will never regret what I say."

The reason why he made such a choice was not only to be impressed by the benevolence and righteousness of the other party, but also to comfort the spirit of his master Gongsun Yu.

Because he used to be an orphan...

1Chapter 17 Returning to Confucianism for freshman selection

After Jing Ke offered to be a swordsmanship teacher, Ye Chen naturally did not refuse, and happily agreed.

He wanted to create a force of his own a long time ago, so naturally he wanted to attract more experts to join, and the nearly thousand teenagers really needed more professional teachers to teach them.

Afterwards, Jing Ke told his junior sister about this and asked her opinion.When he learned that Ye Chen had adopted so many orphans by himself, he was also very moved, and he expressed his support for this decision without hesitation.

So the two decided to leave with Ye Chen.

Early in the morning of the second day, the four of them came to Tian Guang's mansion to bid farewell, and then left the farmhouse.

And just after they walked out of the farm's territory, they saw a young man dressed as a Confucian scholar walking over.

"Confucian Zirong, I met my uncle!"

As he spoke, he cupped his hands towards Ye Chen and saluted.

"You came here to find me, what is the matter?"

Ye Chen asked.

The Confucian student named Zirong replied: "I am here to invite you to go back to Confucianism by order of my uncle."

Hearing this, Ye Chen's expression changed, and the uncle he was talking about was his master, Master Xun.

Then he asked, "Teacher, is there any arrangement?"

Zirong clasped his hands and replied, "After half a month, it will be the entrance ceremony for freshmen. Uncle Master, please go back and take charge of this matter."

Hearing this, Ye Chen understood and understood.

Every three years, the Confucian School will hold an enrollment ceremony to select some good seedlings to study in the Xiaoshengxianzhuang, so as to replenish fresh blood for the sect.

Many people will also take this opportunity to send their children in. If they can worship under the great virtuous family, it can be said that they will reach the sky in one step.

However, it is not so easy to enter Xiaoshengxian Village. Although there are many scholars in the Seven Kingdoms, most of them can only be called Confucian scholars, not Confucian disciples.

The two look similar on the surface, but in reality they are completely different.

As long as you have accepted the inheritance of Confucianism and followed the path of Confucianism and Taoism, you can be regarded as a Confucian student.But it is very difficult to become a formal Confucian disciple.

First of all, you have to participate in the open enrollment held by Confucianism every three years. After layers of screening, a very small number of those who are good enough will enter the small sage village to practice.

But this is just the beginning. After being enrolled as a registered disciple, one has to study hard. There is a small test in March and a big test every year. If you fail, you will be punished, or even directly expelled from the door.

After a few years, when you have learned almost all the things you should learn, you will usher in the final assessment. Only with the approval of the Confucian elders can you graduate smoothly.

Everyone who has completed their studies is a real top student.

And only those who have passed through layers of screening and walked out of Xiaoshengxianzhuang can be regarded as qualified Confucian disciples.

Before leaving, something similar to a diploma will be issued, which can prove your "education".

Although there are many Confucian scholars in the world, there are not many who really meet the standards.During the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius had three thousand disciples. This tradition has been preserved. Today, the number of true Confucian disciples is also maintained at around three thousand.

After hearing the news, Ye Chen nodded, then looked at Zirong and said, "Go back first, I will arrive before the end of the month."

Zirong clapped his hands in response, and then left.

After he left, Ye Chen smiled at Jing Ke: "The teacher has ordered something, I'm afraid I can't return to South Korea for the time being.

I'm going back to Confucianism, do you want to come with me?If you don't want to, you can ask Concubine Yan to take you to Xinzheng first, and I will rush over as soon as I finish my work. "

Jing Ke heard the words and said: "It's okay, we are not in a hurry anyway, so let's go to Confucianism with you. To be honest, I haven't been to Xiaoshengxianzhuang yet, so I just went to have a look."

Ye Chen nodded: "Okay, let's go there together. It's just that Confucianism emphasizes etiquette, and everything is done in order. I'm afraid you won't be used to it when you get there."

Jing Ke said with a smile: "That's nothing, as long as there is wine to drink."

Ye Chen heard the words and said: "Confucianism has no rules for prohibiting alcohol, but you can't hold a wine jar every day."

"Then I'll drink a little secretly, it should be fine, right?"

Jing Ke poked his head and asked.

Ye Chen replied: "That's nothing. My junior brother Han Fei often does such things, and was once punished by the teacher for being drunk. But you are not a Confucian, so you don't have too many demands."

Hearing this, Jing Ke also felt relieved, and said heartily: "That's good, as long as there is wine, you can talk about anything."

The few people continued on their way while chatting, but the direction changed a bit, and they headed towards the Qi State in the northeast...

The farmhouse is in the state of Chu, while the Confucianism is in Sanghai, Qi State. The distance between the two places is not close, but several people have horses to travel, and they can arrive within ten days under normal circumstances.

However, the weather was not good, and it was rainy these days, the trip was delayed a lot, and it took more than ten days to arrive at Sanghai City.

There was no delay after entering the city, and they rushed directly to their destination.

However, he had to stop when he was a few hundred meters away from Xiaoshengxianzhuang, because the road ahead was completely blocked.

In front of the eyes, there is a large area of ​​carriages and horses and piles of people, all trying to squeeze in, among them are many children who are held by the elders.

Seeing this scene, Jing Ke frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Ye Chen let out a breath and said, "If my guess is correct, these should be the ones taking part in the entrance examination."
