The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 705
Jinzhou City.

Yuzhou Lane West District.

There is a long and narrow room.

There used to be two adjacent shops.

It is said that it was bought by a rich man from a foreign country half a year ago.

The two storefronts were opened up, the intersection was additionally reinforced, and the whole was renovated and decorated.

The wall has been thicker for at least one generation, so it must have a good sound insulation effect in this street.

The neighbors in the neighborhood were all curious about what the new house would be used for, but no one had any relevant information.

It was even gradually forgotten by people and no longer received attention.

Until three months ago, the new owner of the house finally appeared.

The new owner turned out to be a young, kind girl.

She is also a girl who specializes in teaching and educating people.

The function of the room is equivalent to a private school.

The admission requirements are looser than those of official colleges, and the tuition fees are slightly cheaper than other private schools in the city.

After all, she is a young girl who has just arrived. No matter how good everyone has a good impression of her, she was sent to the family with a wait-and-see or try attitude at the beginning.

Unexpectedly, after more than two months, the twenty pairs of desks and benches neatly arranged in the room gradually filled with schoolchildren.

Latecomers can only listen to the class with two people at the same table.

Today, thirty children ranging in age from five to ten have come to this bookstore to listen to Mr. Gu's lectures.

The sound of reading aloud gradually died down.

It means that there is less than half an hour before lunch time.

This morning's class is also coming to an end.

Usually at this time, Gu Lian would casually chat with these young students like friends.

Wait for the children to go home by themselves or the parents and elders of the other party to pick them up.

But today is a bit abnormal.

Some young students seemed to be reluctant to leave the school, and some other young students who were curious also left in no hurry.

Gu Lian looked at each of the young students with clear eyes, not hiding their thoughts.

Some raised their hands to explore questions, some were curious about what other people wanted to ask, and some wondered why everyone was sitting still.

Gu Lian smiled slightly, and stretched out her hand to ask the girl with two braids, one hand raised high, bouncing around to stand up and ask questions.

"Mai, what question do you want to ask?"

Mai Mai jumped up happily and asked, "Sir, sir, I heard from my father that there was a chaos in the Youjing Palace three days ago, and the bad guys outside Zhongzhou would take the opportunity to call us after seeing us in chaos, saying that Zhongzhou might be with us again." It's the same as 20 years ago, there are wars everywhere, we have to run around, we can't listen to the teacher's lectures and read every day, can't we?"

The little girl who is seven years old is a small business at home. She has been under the influence of her parents for a long time, and her expressive ability is not normal. After two months of teaching by Gu Lian, her thinking logic is clearer, not only listening at home I understand the worries in the words between my parents, and I can fully repeat the basic meaning when I get here. I think it's because of the scene thinking about the future that I don't feel sad, and I want to cry while talking.

Upon hearing this, Gu Lian walked to the table and gently stroked the back of Mai Mai's head.

Looking around with wonderful eyes, it seemed that most of the children saw the same worry in their eyes.

Can't help but sigh inwardly, Jinzhou City is closer to Youjing after all, and people can't help but panic when such a big event happened.

It's just a pity that these children are also concerned about the country and the people at such a young age.

Gu Lian adjusted his mood, and asked with a smile: "Do you have the same question as Mai Mai?"

"Yes."

"Yes sir, I also heard from grandpa."

"I heard what my second uncle said."

"Sir, sir, my mother got up in the morning and quarreled with my father about this matter, saying that there will be a war soon, so what's the point of sending me here to study and read?"

……

Gu Lian listened carefully to each child's confession until no one asked any more questions.

She first looked at the little boy who had just talked about her parents bickering, and asked, "Little Yu'er, you said that your mother thought it was pointless to send you here to study and learn to read, why did she send you here so early in the end?"

Xiao Yu'er scratched the lotus-leaf-shaped hair on his forehead, and timidly replied: "I don't know."

Gu Lian said: "Because they don't have the ability to do more things now, they can only do the current thing well."

"Not able to do more things? Just do the current thing well?"

Xiao Yuer, who was only five years old, seemed to have suddenly grown another head. One head fought with each other, and had to use two small hands to rub both sides of his forehead.

Gu Lian called Xiao Yu'er to her side, and pulled down his two little hands so that he would stop tossing his head.

Looking at the pair of eyes seeking knowledge, Gu Lian sorted out her thoughts and gave a unified response.

"To be honest, kids, I don't know what tomorrow, or the future holds.

"I can only tell you what I know and what I plan to do.

"Although you are still young, you still have to try to learn to have your own judgment ability, understand what you can do, and decide what to do.

"It's true that some disturbances occurred in Youjing, and it's not a small disturbance, which is enough for foreign enemies to take advantage of it.

"But as far as I know, there are many people who are working hard to calm the chaos in Yujing.

"There are still many people who will risk their lives to fight against foreign enemies, just to protect their homes, relatives and friends behind them.

“These things are not something that just anyone can do easily.

"At least I can't.

"Neither can most of your family members.

"So what can they do now?

"You can't be moaning and worrying all day long, can you?

"Or pack up your luggage and hide the whole family in a place that won't be burned by the flames of war?
"Actually, it's hard to find a safer place than here.

"If the flames of war can reach here, then... we may meet in another world in the future.

"So, the days have to go on, and at most make some preparations for the difficulties that are coming.

"For example, earn more money and stock up on more food. If difficulties really come, you may be able to exchange money and food for a chance to survive and live longer.

"Then what can you do?

"Go home and eat a few more bowls of rice, exercise more to strengthen your body, let yourself grow up quickly, and when the fire of war really comes, you can also run faster, and take your family to run faster.

"When I have nothing else to do, I should read more and learn more, and strive to become a more remarkable person than my husband.

"If this war hadn't started, and it had come a long time later, you would have stood up to your family and friends and been amazing people protecting them.

"Do you understand?"

It was the first time for the children to hear such a tirade from Mr. Gu.

They all seem to understand.

Even so, they still tried their best to remember what Mr. Gu said, and gave uneven and ignorant responses.

"understood."

……

……

There are many shops in the west area of ​​Yuzhou Lane.

The eastern district is basically residential.

Sending off the last student, Gu Lian closed the door of the study as usual.

But he didn't go straight to the East End and walk home as usual.

For the past two days, Gu Lian had to go grocery shopping before returning home at noon.

Instead of buying vegetables every two or three days as usual.

Because there were several more people eating at once in the family, she had to buy a lot of fresh meat and vegetables to last for a day.

The amount of time she spends in the kitchen every day has also become longer.

But she cherishes this time very much.

Because soon, there will only be one or two people who accompany her to eat at home.

Gu Lian, who was dressed in a neutral dress and a white shirt, bought two or three vegetables in the market, and before his clothes were wet by the water droplets on the leaves, he had already handed them over with both hands.

Those were the hands of a beautiful woman in blue.

Gu Lian only knew each other three days ago.

Only then did I know that such a jade beauty was also a killer.

Leng Mei is a killer.

Also a killer who never buys vegetables.

So in the past two days, she can only squeeze the time, waiting for Gu Lian to rush over to help carry the vegetables when she comes to buy vegetables.

But in the kitchen, it's not a problem for her to help Gu Lian.

After two days, the cooperation between the two of them became more and more tacit.

The meals made are becoming more and more delicious.

"tasty."

"Delicious."

"I hope to taste this craft every day."

"Happy."

They are the mantras of Kong Yihen, Yingfo, Huo Nan and Jiang Yichen at the dinner table.

It's just that every time Huo Nan said words like "every day" and "every day", the whole room would suddenly be silent for a long while.
