"You can deliver the letter, but you can't record my daily life, right?" As soon as Hu Tian let go of the flying sword in his hand, Lu Ming's voice sounded from behind him. Hu Tian's expression tensed, and he stood up at a loss.

"Master asked me to deliver one letter, and I don't need to deliver it again. If I have offended you, please blame me, Brother Lu."

"Why should I blame you?"

Lu Ming put his hands into his sleeves and looked at him with a smile.

"You are just completing your task and not harming me, so why should you be blamed?"

"Fellow Daoist Lu is magnanimous. Hu Tian is grateful for his advice. Hu Tian bowed and saluted with a sincere attitude.

Lu Ming waved his hand and said,"Don't call me fellow Daoist in front of the students. In front of them, I am also a mortal with no cultivation."

After that, he turned and walked into the school.

Hu Tian looked at Lu Ming's back thoughtfully.

Since he was discovered by Lu Ming, he did not intend to hide anymore, but sat in the yard to listen to Lu Ming's lecture.

Lu Ming just glanced at this person and did not drive him away.

He taught for people to listen to.

If Hu Tian had any unique insights, he would be happy to listen.

After teaching four classes a day, Lu Ming watched the students leave before turning his head to look at Hu Tian.

"Is listening to Mr. Lu’s lectures also the task of Tianyi Pavilion?"

"No." Hu Tian shook his head and said seriously,"Hu wants to listen to Mr. Lu's lecture, that's all."

Hearing that the other party's way of addressing him had changed, Lu Ming shook his head and laughed.

"The school is about to close, let's go out and talk"

"Good."

The two walked side by side on the path in Niutou Village.

Hu Tian looked at the scenery of the small mountain village, took a deep breath, and smelled the smell of feces in the air. His expression was extremely strange.

"Sir, you have great talent, why don't you go to a better place to teach? The environment here doesn't seem to be very good."

"Everyone thinks so."

Lu Ming put his hands into his sleeves, looked at the sheep dung ball on the path, and kicked it. The sheep dung ball flew up and embedded into a ball of cow dung.

"They all want a better life and a more comfortable living environment, but who will take care of the people here?

Before I came, these children had to travel to villages more than ten miles away to study. They had to travel so much every day, and they had to cross mountains and ridges. It was even more dangerous when it rained or snowed.

Just because the conditions here are poor, do these children not deserve to study? All people are born equal. Even if they are divided into high and low after birth, the untouchables have the right to yearn for a better life, not to mention that the villagers here are not untouchables.

Teaching and educating people are inseparable."

Hu Tian savored what Lu Ming said, and his eyes changed again and again when he looked at Lu Ming.

"Mr. Lu is righteous, but Mr. Hu is shallow."

"Shallow?" Lu Ming smiled and shook his head:"I will only stay here for ten years. After ten years, this village may return to its previous life. I am not a saint. I also have my own ambitions. I just do more within my ability."

"Hu learned a lesson!"

"I'm not teaching you anything. Aren't we just chatting?"

Lu Ming paused and looked at Hu Tian with amusement.

Hu Tian twisted his fingers and nodded with a smile.

"Yeah, we're just chatting."

"Okay, I'm home now. If you don't have anything else to do, we can talk again some other day."

"Then Mr. Lu, can I also go to the school to attend the class tomorrow?"

"You are a cultivator at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Stage. Why are you going to school to hang out with a bunch of kids?"

"I am not joining in the fun, I just feel that listening to Mr. Lu's lectures is beneficial to my practice"

"……"

Lu Ming was speechless.

I have only been practicing for more than ten years, and you told me that listening to my lectures is beneficial to my practice?

Ridiculous!

After thinking about it, he really had no reason to refuse.

Seeing Hu Tian's expectant look, Lu Ming's heart moved slightly.

"The school is short of an assistant teacher. If you can go over and help, that's fine. With your hearing, you can hear my lectures."

Hu Tian was overjoyed and bowed.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu."

After saying that, Hu Tian left the courtyard with an excited look on his face.

Lu Ming shook his head helplessly, pushed open the door of the courtyard, and walked straight into the kitchen.

After making two simple dishes, Lu Ming ate the last meal of the day with steamed buns and porridge.

After cleaning up the dishes, he sat on the stone bench and looked at the Yin-Yang Pisces picture hanging on the willow tree.

There was no conversation that night.

The next morning, when Lu Ming came to the school, he saw Hu Tian waiting in the school.

The students had already taken their seats one after another. When they saw Lu Ming coming in, they stood up to welcome Lu Ming.

"Good morning, Mr. Lu!"

"Mr. Lu, there is a strange person in the classroom today, claiming to be a teaching assistant."

Li Ermu came over and whispered to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming smiled and nodded:"I invited him, teaching assistant Hu. From now on, when I teach in the next class, teaching assistant Hu will check your learning."

"So that's how it is."

Li Ermu suddenly realized.

He scratched his head with embarrassment, and then sat back in his seat.

Lu Ming introduced the new teaching assistant Hu to the students, and arranged specific work for Hu Tian.

It was mainly to check homework and supervise exams.

It was Hu Tian's first time as a teacher.

He felt good about the first experience.

But soon he felt the gap between himself and Lu Ming.

What Lu Ming taught was either stories with profound life lessons or obscure mathematical knowledge.

He could barely teach the former, but he really didn't know the latter at all.

What about functions, calculus, etc., he couldn't understand at all.

The key point was that Lu Ming taught different students in each classroom.

He could only barely understand the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in the youngest classroom.

"It's so difficult!"

Hu Tian sighed as he looked up at the sky.

At the end of the day, the joy in his heart disappeared, and his mind was full of the math problems that Lu Ming talked about.

He told Lu Ming about the parts that he didn't understand.

Lu Ming just looked at him with a smile:"Is it useful for you to learn this?"

"Is it useless?"

Hu Tian was stunned.

Lu Ming smiled, but his smile was speechless.

"You are a dignified cultivator, a Yuanying elder of Tianyi Pavilion. You don't need to be proficient in mathematics and abacus. But when fighting with others, do you have to carefully calculate whether the angle of the opponent's spell can hurt you, or whether your body can withstand the attack of the opponent's spiritual weapon?"

"Forehead……"

Hu Tian gradually came to his senses.

He felt that Lu Ming was right, and he seemed to be a little crazy.

"The mathematics I teach is to ensure that these students will not be stumped by the above questions during the imperial examinations. They may enter the government in the future, and mathematics is the only way to benefit the people, so they naturally want to learn it, unlike you."

Lu Ming patted Hu Tian on the shoulder and returned to his own courtyard with a smile.

Hu Tian realized it later and returned to the Tianyi Pavilion tent in a daze.

In the following time, Hu Tian quietly served as an assistant teacher and did not study the mathematics taught by Lu Ming.

On the contrary, when Lu Ming was talking about the Four Books and Five Classics, he could usually express some unique insights of his own.

Lu Ming said that he didn't care. His understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics was relatively superficial. Unlike those people in the world of immortal cultivation who had been exposed to the scriptures of sages since childhood, he lacked some insights into the world.

Therefore, when communicating with Hu Tian , which also benefited him a lot.

The villagers also knew that the new assistant teacher in the school also had some knowledge, so they tried to curry favor with him.

Seeing that Hu Tian was older and alone, those hospitable aunts started to introduce a wife to Hu Tian.

Lu Ming, who was still eating melons, was immediately targeted by this group of people.

After all, the news that Chu Xuanjing had left the village had spread a long time ago.

The golden boy and the jade girl, the jade girl was gone, and it was a bit of a waste to leave the golden boy here alone.

When Lu Ming returned to the courtyard after class, he could see many matchmakers gathered at the gate of the courtyard to propose marriage.

"Hey, Mr. Lu is back!"
