Chapter 16 The Shadow That Resounds

"Why so fast?" Teacher Li frowned. He had just told Gu Lu the topic of the Ye Shengtao Cup the day before yesterday, and today he said he had finished writing it.

Not serious at all!
The Ye Shengtao Cup is not just a district essay contest, it is a national one!

Teacher Li didn't reach out to take it. "It's still early before the registration time. Do you want to think about it carefully?"

"I chose Question 2, and when I got home I was inspired." Gu Lu said, "So I quickly showed it to the teacher."

Oh, it turns out you were too excited. Teacher Li can understand that.

"Okay, I'll show it to you," Teacher Li warned, "but be prepared to make some revisions."

"No problem." Gu Lu said he understood.

I watched the students leave. I don't have time to watch now. I'm in a hurry. Teacher Li has to go to the next class to teach. He teaches two classes, but he is only the head teacher of Class 5.

Passing by the corridor, Teacher Li met the grade director who was in a hurry. Recently, the cultural department issued an order, and the principal did a lot of things, including the re-adjustment of the positions of the poor students and the excellent students.

Currently, there is a plan to "understand students' lives", and the head teacher of each class has to check the dormitories at noon.

Are you kidding me? The head teacher has enough things to do, and yet he still has to deal with these weird things.

Compared to the teacher's depression, Gu Lu was quite happy on the way to the classroom, as he had accomplished another thing!

The Ye Cup should be more stable than the Bing Xin Cup. The latter is a movie adapted by him himself, but the former is based on a great article by Professor Meng Xianming of the Department of Literature at Henan University.

Professor Meng Xianwei is also the editor-in-chief of Henan University Press, and his articles are quite good.

Gu Lu was also thinking, "Golden Finger, trigger it quickly, my stomach is running out of food!"

Things like the "Reconciliation Charm" are only useful when you are a student. By making peace with your deskmate, you can successfully eat Zhou Lin's snacks.

After traveling through so many days, all Gu Lu saw was beauty. However, school is not just beautiful, there are also bad sides, such as bullying.

"I'll wait for you at Xiaoxitian after school. Don't miss it." After class, Wang Wenjun found Gu Lu.

Who is Wang Wenjun? Zhao Juan’s ex-boyfriend.

"Are you really together with Zhao Juan?" Zhou Lin asked.

“How is that possible?” Gu Lu was at least in his twenties in his previous life, and his aesthetic taste was that of older sisters.

"Then why can't Mantou sit still?" Zhou Lin wondered.

Wang Wenjun's nickname was "Mande", which gradually evolved into "Mantou", and no one knows how the nickname came about.

"I'm curious too." said Gu Lu.

"I heard that Wang Wenjun knows some big gangsters out there." Zhou Lin reminded, "Be careful. If things don't work out, you can tell the teacher."

"I will consider your suggestion." Gu Lu replied.

In the eyes of adults, vocational high school students and idle second-rate people are nothing.

But in the eyes of junior and senior high school students, saying "I know someone who's hanging out there" is cool enough.

In the original body's memory, a girl in the same grade was very proud of dating a gangster...

"If the original owner's memory is correct, this Wang Wenjun seems to be the class bully?" Gu Lu pondered.

This class bully is not as exaggerated as portrayed in movies and TV dramas, but he does do things like borrowing a few dollars from classmates and not returning them, and even snatching stationery from classmates.

One thing I really like to do is to stand at the school gate with four or five people in a casual manner and point fingers at my classmates.

Since Wang Wenjun is the class bully, no one in the class dares to mess with him. For example, Fan Xiaotian saw this scene but didn't dare to say anything.

Zhao Juan found Wang Wenjun and had a fierce argument. When it comes to students, Gu Lu has a kind of confidence that comes from his age and experience.

However, students are not very lenient when it comes to hitting people, sometimes they are even more ruthless than adults. After all, the former are not mentally mature, and there are laws to protect minors, so Gu Lu should be more careful than safe...

The first class in the afternoon went by in a flash.

Teacher Li returned to the office and began to read the composition submitted by Gu Lu.

"A shadow that makes a sound?" Teacher Li looked at the question.

Teacher Li opened the document on his laptop and looked at his desktop. There were many files.

There are only two kinds of people in the world. Those who have a tidy desktop with all their documents sorted into folders, and those who have a messy desktop filled with file icons. Mr. Li is the latter.

The 4A paper with the title written on it was printed out by Teacher Li, so of course there is the original manuscript. Topic is to write a speech for a reading club.

"This is your first time participating in an essay competition. Was it because you were too nervous that you went off topic?" Teacher Li felt something was wrong and quickly checked.

[Influence.

Influencer, shadow echo.

Some say: It is the shadow that makes the sound!

An "influence" that continues to this day, and will last forever.

[…]
To be honest, as a Chinese teacher, Mr. Li has taught how to get high scores in writing essays.

Quote famous sayings at the beginning and end, or be a little original and use parallel sentences in the middle to add atmosphere. The clever method is like the "introduction" and "remaining meaning" of the eight-legged essay.

Gu Lu's opening paragraph did sound like a speech, but it was vague.

As he continued reading, Mr. Li’s expression gradually changed. He understood what the shadow that made the sound was. “Shadow” refers to human thoughts, consciousness, psychology and so on.

“The human shadow makes no sound, but the divine shadow shocks the world.” Why did the human shadow make no sound at the beginning?

The article gives the answer.

[A few thousand years later, a peerless hero appeared. He had four eyes that could see through the world. His name was Cang Jie! From then on, human figures became louder and louder. The sky rained millet, and ghosts cried at night. Influence was no longer exclusive to gods!]
The opening is here, and the book club speech begins with the creation of Chinese characters by our ancestor Cangjie.

“The opening and perspective are so grand.”

The articles are getting better and better, especially the ending, which is different from the confusing beginning and ends brilliantly!
[The room is filled with the scent of ink and there is no sound of rest. The quietest place in the world is books.

The pages of the album are gently opened, awakening the deaf and the blind. The world's sound is no louder than books! ]
After reading it, Teacher Li had only one thought in his mind, "Is this really written by Gu Lu?"

Gu Lu writes good compositions, and Teacher Li knows that, but it’s not that good.

Although he knew it was not good to doubt students, Teacher Li still couldn't help it... because even if you asked him to write this article, it would be difficult!
Although Mr. Li believed that his students would not plagiarize, he was worried that they might have copied other excellent articles.

The result is, no, absolutely nothing!
Teacher Li thought of the burst of inspiration that Gu Lu had mentioned earlier. Could it be true that it could burst out to such an extent?
What is there to revise? Teacher Li looked at it and saw two typos.

Suddenly, a thought came to Teacher Li's mind. If he maintained this level, he might be able to win the Ye Shengtao Cup...

After school, Gu Lu came to Xiaoxitian.

In fact, it is the small gate (side door) of the school. Opposite it is a street of incense, candles and paper money. There is also a shop called "Xitian Incense, Wax and Paper Candle Wholesale Store", so it is called "Little Xitian".

On weekdays, only the front door of No. 37 Middle School is open, and the back door and small door are basically closed, so Xiaoxitian has become a frequent place for students to "fight".

Why is the word "fighting appointment" in quotation marks? Because usually a fight does not occur, it's just two groups of people standing and arguing.
