Chapter 230: The Death Culture of Great Xia

Translator: 549690339

” Feudal superstition…”

Gu Shaoxuan turned around and looked in the direction of the school. He suddenly smiled.

“As expected, he didn’t admit it directly.”

Yesterday, he had personally witnessed Ji Ruobai’s sacrifice. At that time, Gu Shaoxuan was so excited that he almost jumped out on the spot.

But he held back.

In fact, he knew that he was not popular, but for his dream…

In short, he tried all kinds of methods after the incident, but the statue in the coffin did not react at all.

Gu Shaoxuan did not sleep the entire night. In the end, he had no other choice. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to ask Ji Ruo personally.

But it seemed like Ji Ruo didn’t want to talk to him.

“Are you suspecting me? Come to think of it, how could such a thing be publicized…” Gu Shaoxuan shook his head slightly and was a little puzzled. “But why did he only get a cat?”

“Shouldn’t knowledge be distinguished by its value…” Liang Shixian pondered for a moment after hearing Ji Ruo’s explanation.””That makes sense. Not to mention these children, even I don’t know much about that kind of thing. I even have prejudice. Jiruo, you’re right.”

“I’ll listen to it too. If he dares to tell horror stories to scare the children, I’ll kick him out.”

Liang Shixian was speechless. There was no need to be so excessive. After all, he had good intentions. Moreover, how could he not mention horror stories when he was talking about that kind of knowledge?”

“That’s true.”

The people from Spiced Spicy Hot Dumpling Group had no experience in teaching. Although Liang Shixian had stayed up all night to do the lesson, this was his first time being a teacher!

On the first day of class, other than Ji Ruo, everyone else was just following the script.

Fortunately, the children had obtained brand new textbooks. Their enthusiasm for learning today was quite high. However, he did not know how long this enthusiasm would last…

The reason why Ji Ruo didn’t follow the textbook was mainly because when he

arranged the class schedule, he arranged it for himself to be a physical education class. The physical education teacher didn’t have a textbook! It would be good to play with the students.

It suited Ji Ruo’s character very well. He was good at this.

For the entire morning, Liang Shixian had been listening in on everyone else’s classes.

He wasn’t listening to the lecture. He was just recording some of the problems that appeared in the class, recalling what the teacher had said in class, recording the problems, and then gathering everyone to discuss and think about how to change it after school at night.

Even with Liang Shixian’s physical fitness in the Qimai Realm, there was a deep sense of fatigue between his brows.

“Class monitor, why don’t you rest for a while? You haven’t slept for almost a day and a night. “Xu Dong could not help but say when he saw this.

“No!” ” We’re teachers now,” Liang Shixian said seriously.” If even we have problems, then the knowledge that the children have learned must have problems too.”

We might not have to take over the classes for long, but what we affect is the lives of those children. We can’t be careless.

Ji Ruo smiled helplessly.

Although he felt a little distressed, Ji Ruo didn’t intend to persuade Liang Shixian to do anything. This guy could donate blood until he was forcibly detained by the hospital. Who could persuade him?

Xu Dong smacked his lips and didn’t know what to say for a moment. He said dryly,” Then class monitor, I’ll help you too. Speaking of which, when I was in class just now…”

The people from Spiced Spicy Hot Dumpling who had no classes for the time being squatted outside the fence and began to discuss in low voices.

Inside the fence, the children were studying diligently. Outside the fence, the teachers were also studying.

2 PM.

Gu Shaoxuan carried the black coffin to the school.

Before entering the classroom, Gu Shaoxuan hesitated for a moment. Then, he took down the black coffin behind him and placed it beside the classroom. Then, he stepped onto the simple podium.

When the children saw Gu Shaoxuan walk into the classroom, they subconsciously shrank their necks, and there was a faint fear in their eyes.

They did not know what they were afraid of, but the adults at home had already said that the big box that Gu Shaoxuan had been carrying on his back was used to store the dead.

“Hello, students.”

Gu Shaoxuan did not care about the children’s fearful gazes. He smiled and greeted everyone.”My name is Gu Shaoxuan. You should all know me, right?

From today onwards, I will be your teacher.”

Then. Gu Shaoxuan did not waste any more time. Instead. he inexplicably took out a withered flower from his pocket. “Does everyone know what this is?”

“A dead flower…” Niu Li whispered.

“Yes, dead flowers.

Gu Shaoxuan nodded with a smile and said, “”This student, your name is Niu Li, right? I remember you. Yes, you were the first to answer the question. Not bad.

I remember you.”

Niu Li was so scared that he was about to cry. He said,” You, can you not remember me? I was wrong. I won’t dare to answer you again…”

Before Gu Shaoxuan came to the Eight Treasures Stronghold, the adults in the stronghold would scare the children by saying, ‘If you don’t listen, you’ll be captured and eaten by demons!’,After Gu Shaoxuan arrived, it became,’lf you don’t listen, I’ll let that strange uncle lock you in the coffin!’ Gu Shaoxuan actually knew about these things, but he did not care.

He was used to it.

“Wrong? That’s right, your answer is very accurate. However, you can’t not answer the question…”

“Niu Li, do you want to be locked in a coffin by the teacher?” Gu Shaoxuan said with a smile.”

“No, don’t!”

“Haha, Teacher was just joking.”

Gu Shaoxuan thought that he had made a good joke, so he ignored the terrified children and continued to teach.

“Students, please take a good look at the flower in teacher’s hand. Do you think this flower is ugly?”

“Ugly…”

With Niu Li as a lesson, the children did not dare to ignore Gu Shaoxuan anymore. They carefully told the truth.

“Yes, very ugly.”

Gu Shaoxuan placed the withered flower on the lecture table and sighed.” The fear and prejudice people have towards death is largely due to the fact that death is ‘ugly’. After seeing the’ ugliness ‘of death, people begin to be afraid when they think about how they will become like that in the future.”

He glanced at Ji Ruo, who was leaning on the fence, and continued, “Is death scary? Actually, it was not scary.

When death came, he couldn’t touch it, touch it, or smell it…Everything was reduced to nothingness, unable to sense, unable to move, unable to imagine. That was actually the most terrifying aspect of death.

But at that time, would people still feel afraid?

Death is death. There will be nothing left. Even thoughts will not exist. Fear is actually just an illusion for us living people.

The dead can’t do anything.”

Gu Shaoxuan’s voice seemed to have some kind of mazic, and the children began to think subconsciously.

They were imagining the feeling that Gu Shaoxuan had described.

Er Ya suddenly whispered, “But Teacher Gu, even if the Martial Saint grandfathers have become like that, they will still protect us…”

“Yes, they will protect us.”

Gu Shaoxuan looked at Er Ya approvingly and said, “It’s precisely because they will protect us even if they die that we pay our respects to them during the New

Year.

Students, in this class, the teacher wants to tell you a story, a story about death. ”

For some reason, the sun was clearly high in the sky, and the scorching sun was hanging high in the sky, but everyone felt an inexplicable chill.

Xu Dong’s body moved and he almost rushed in.

Ji Ruo stopped him.

“Don’t be anxious. Let’s wait and see what he has to say.”

Gu Shaoxuan smiled and said softly,’”‘ A long, long time ago, the ancestors of my Great Xia developed the concept of ‘soul’. At that time, people believed that after a person died, the’ soul ‘would not die with him. It could still interfere with the lives of the living, and their fates…”
