Chen Che became Wang Jingming's bodyguard and was paid five taels of silver a month.
As a famous scholar in Jizhou, Wang Jingming lived in the core area of Shihuo City.
Not only is it huge in area, it is also patrolled and guarded day and night by officers and soldiers.
As a bodyguard, Chen Che moved his family directly there.
…
After everything was arranged, Chen Che came to Wang Jingming's study alone.
In the study, Wang Jingming, who is dressed in Tsing Yi, has gray hair and looks elegant, is writing.
Seeing Chen Che arriving, he sighed softly.
"come in."
After hearing this, Chen Che entered the study room respectfully.
…
Looking at the student in front of him with pale skin and faint dark circles under his eyes, Wang Jingming felt very complicated.
Although Chen Che didn't give him any special care when he was his student, his attitude was almost the same as that of other students.
But in fact, he valued this student very much in his heart.
This student was born into a civilian family. He is not only smart but also very hardworking.
Although there is obsession in the heart, if this obsession can be resolved smoothly, then the obsession will become an opportunity to promote a person's transformation.
According to his plan, after Chen Che is admitted as a scholar, he will recommend Chen Che to study at Daxia Academy, and then directly skip the provincial examination and take the national examination.
After passing the general examination, I will go to the local level to practice for two years...
When the time comes, Daxia will gain another pillar of talent.
However, what he didn't expect was that after a few months of studying abroad, when he came back, he found that Chen Che had become a warrior!
Still a talented warrior!
This is simply off the mark!
"Chen Che, I remember you once told me that your ambition is to protect the common people... Now that you have chosen to practice martial arts, how can you protect the common people?"
Wang Jingming’s words are serious and thoughtful.
The Xia Dynasty valued literature over martial arts, because scholars who had the world in mind could deter evil spirits and protect one side.
On the other hand, warriors can only protect themselves, consume resources, and even occasionally rebel.
In comparison, scholars are much easier to manage.
After Chen Che was silent for a moment, he said bluntly: "Teacher, I originally wanted to protect you.
But the reality is that I can't even protect myself and my family.
The Yang family teamed up with the examiner to change my test paper, causing me to fail the exam.
After I failed the exam, even a little gangster tried to plot against me.
what can I do?
If I didn't practice martial arts, teacher, you might not even be able to see me today."
Wang Jingming had no way to refute.
At this moment, he was extremely resentful towards the examiners of that county exam and towards the Yang family.
Even his students dared to bully him, which shows what attitude these people have towards other scholars!
"Damn it! Damn it! These people are shaking the foundation of my country!"
After cursing a few words, Wang Jingming called in a follower.
"Naofumi, go and call the examiners for this year's county exam.
And Yang Shou from the Yang family, who was admitted as a scholar this year, also called me over."
"yes!"
The attendant responded and quickly withdrew.
Seeing this scene, Chen Che felt confident.
He was not originally prepared to pursue the matter of the Yang family changing his test papers. After all, if the Yang family did not change the test papers, he would not be able to come to this world.
But the Yang family had to force him.
There was no other way, he could only pursue the case.
The teacher has always been upright. If he finds out the truth, the Yang family will suffer a lot.
…
After the man exited, Wang Jingming looked at Chen Che again.
"Chen Che, if I could say this for you, would you be willing to come back and continue studying?
With your qualifications, although it will be delayed for one year, the impact will not be big."
read?
Chen Che didn't know how to answer for a while.
If scholars want to deter evil spirits, one thing is very important.
That is to have the world in mind and be righteous.
Only in this way can we generate awe-inspiring righteousness and deter evil spirits.
But he is not from this world at all, how can he care about this world?
All he wanted in his mind was to protect himself and live a stable life. With this mentality, no matter how many books he read, it would be of little use.
"Teacher...can't this warrior deal with evil spirits?"
Chen Che asked weakly.
Wang Jingming chuckled lightly and replied: "With your current state, you can't hurt Xie Sui at all.
No matter how powerful you are, dealing with one or two evil spirits is your limit.
If you want to deal with thousands of evil spirits...hehehe, it's impossible."
Chen Che shook his head when he heard this.
"Teacher, I think if you can deal with one or two, you can possibly deal with thousands of them."
Wang Jingming was speechless when he heard this.
"Okay, even if you can deal with thousands of them in the future, how long will it take?
Twenty years or thirty years?
And if you study, in five years you will be able to protect one side and deter thousands of evil spirits."
"But a scholar is powerless and cannot deal with the minions. What if someone wants to harm me?"
Chen Che's voice became lower and lower.
Wang Jingming heard this and argued:
"Who is a great scholar like me who doesn't have a few powerful warriors to protect him?
Thinking about the warriors who followed me when I was an official, they are existences that you can't even imagine now!
Isn’t this easier than practicing on your own?”
"Then the guard wants to harm you?"
Chen Che's voice was too low to be heard.
When Wang Jingming heard this, he slapped the table hard.
"Chen Che, why didn't I realize you were so arrogant before?"
Chen Che lowered his head and said nothing.
"Hmph! Let me tell you, in this world of Daxia, scholars are more noble than warriors!"
Wang Jingming snorted heavily, quite proudly.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice that seemed to be talking to himself.
"What about outside Daxia?"
…
"you!"
Wang Jingming pointed at Chen Che and didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, the follower who had withdrawn earlier turned back.
Wang Jingming regained his composure instantly and asked calmly: "What about the examiner?"
The attendant looked a little strange and said quietly: "Sir... the examiner had a fight with his wife a few days ago and hanged himself in anger."
"died?"
Wang Jingming thought thoughtfully.
"What did the Yang family say?"
The attendant scratched his head and replied: "That Yang Shou of the Yang family... he slipped and fell into the water yesterday and died too."
Hearing this, Chen Che felt a chill in his heart.
The people in this big family... are really cruel.
At the same time, he also felt a little confused.
This key witness is dead, how can he still testify against the Yang family?
However, Wang Jingming's expression remained calm.
"Chen Che, do you know what kind of person I hate the most?"
"Students don't know."
Chen Che replied in a low voice.
"What I hate the most is those who think that we scholars are pedantic, and then use this to make us fools.
As everyone knows, sometimes we just don’t want to argue with them.”
Chen Che lowered his head and said nothing.
Wang Jingming said to the attendant: "Since everyone is dead, let's forget about it."
Then, he suddenly changed the subject.
"Let the people from Jishi League check the Yang family. They have more experience in dealing with unreasonable people."
