The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 305: Mountains and Rivers (I)

June 30th, the ninth year of Jinghe.

After several days of heavy rain in Chang'an, the sky finally cleared up and the sun began to shine brightly, but not to the point where it was unbearable.

It’s a good day for the announcement of the results.

Yunxianju, spring room.

Wang Dongdong knocked on Liu Sheng's door early in the morning and urged him, "Hurry up, or you won't be able to get a good seat if you don't go!"

She knew that on this day, whether or not they were candidates, those who were idle, curious, or waiting to be chosen as a son-in-law or daughter-in-law would go to the Imperial Examination Hall to see the list. By then, there would be huge crowds of people everywhere, making it impossible to get through.

So, it’s better to go early.

However, after knocking for a long time, no one responded.

Wang Dongdong felt strange and suddenly remembered something, so he took out the spiritual message and took a look.

It turned out that Liu Sheng had sent her a message earlier, saying that he had gone hiking and that she didn't need to wait for him and could go and check the list herself.

"Going outing when everyone is so nervous?" Wang Dongdong scratched his head, not sure what Liu Sheng was thinking, "Does she think she's safe?"

The more I think about it, the more I think this is a possibility.

After all, Liu Sheng was the last one to leave the Imperial Examination Hall. If she couldn’t make the list, who could?

So Wang Dongdong gave up. When he saw that it was really late, he left Yunxianju in a hurry, hailed a cloud sedan and flew quickly to Gongyuan.

……

At this time, outside the city of Chang'an, on the green hills.

There is no rain today, and the breath of summer is gradually getting stronger. Liu Sheng is already sweating from walking, and his blue shirt is slightly wet. He is sitting on the bluestone by the roadside, gasping for breath. He takes out a bamboo tube and slowly drinks a big sip of water.

She deliberately did not use her spiritual power or any spiritual weapon, but just climbed the mountain slowly like an ordinary person, so she was already exhausted by the time she reached halfway up the mountain.

"I heard from the aunt at the tea shop at the foot of the mountain that the National Academy is nearby, but how come I can't see it after climbing for so long?" Liu Sheng was a little depressed. He used the cleansing technique to remove the sweat stains on his body and finally felt a little dry.

[I think you've taken the wrong path.] The world pointed it out mercilessly.

"Really? But the path in the mountains is indeed hard to recognize. There are trees and water everywhere, and the stone steps even branch into several paths."

She looked up and around. The mist left over from the early morning had not yet dissipated, and it permeated the mountains and forests. Green bamboos, pines and cypresses swayed in the wind. She could hear the sound of gurgling streams, accompanied by the occasional chirping of birds from nowhere. She inexplicably felt as if she were in another world.

Maybe it had been too long since she had looked at the mountain scenery in such a relaxing way.

When she was a child, she often went hiking with her parents, picking mushrooms, hunting, and fishing in the mountains, and she didn't seem to have too many worries.

However, ever since she left the Little Green Garden, she has been busy and has never taken a good look at the scenery along the way.

Liu Sheng took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air cleansing his chest. The fatigue that was weighing on his heart seemed to be temporarily dispelled and he no longer needed to think about it.

"It doesn't matter. Just keep going. You will find it eventually."

She put the bamboo tube away, stood up and continued walking.

[You really don't want to check the charts? ]

"No need to watch it. Don't we already know the result?"

Liu Sheng was still smiling, looking at the swaying bamboo forest in the mountains, his eyes a little dim.

[Yes, but what if...]

"Don't think about this anymore." Liu Sheng interrupted Shijie's words, took a deep breath, and walked slowly up the mountain on the bluestone road.

The sound of water gradually became faster and louder.

After passing a bamboo forest, the view suddenly opened up.

A waterfall cascades down from a high cliff, splashing water everywhere, like a white silk hanging in the mountains.

Below the waterfall is a clear pool of water. The water is as green as jade, reflecting the surrounding rocks and trees, just like a landscape painting.

Liu Sheng walked to the edge of the waterfall, and the water vapor hit her face. The cool feeling refreshed her.

The gloom in my heart seemed to dissipate a little.

It turns out that we should get closer to nature!
[Yes, you are indeed too tired. ]

There is an extra bit of heartache in the world's voice that is neither sad nor happy.

[You seem to have never stopped since we met. ]

"yes……"

Liu Sheng was also a little dazed, thinking back on how many things had happened in just four months.

Sometimes, she even felt that she was no longer nineteen years old.

She had experienced too much in those unknown times and spaces, especially in the small world. Although the flow of time had been accelerated, she still had more than a decade of memories, which made her feel a little confused about the years. Moreover, she had been to so many places, not too many or too few, but enough to make her feel alienated from the current world, as if all this was unreal.

I shouldn't be here and I don't belong here.

Liu Sheng looked at the pond in confusion and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, a ripple broke the calmness of the water.

A fat silver fish flapped out of the water and was thrown onto the shore.

Liu Sheng tilted his head to look, and found that there was a thin old man sitting on the other side of the pond. He was wearing simple cloth and had white hair, and was fishing by the pond.

Perhaps it was because I was attracted by the beautiful scenery of the waterfall and the clear pool, and my mind was heavy with trivial matters, that I didn't notice this person at all.

The old man took the silverfish and threw it into a bamboo basket beside him. He then hung a twisting earthworm on the fishhook, swung the hook in a semicircle and threw it into the water.

Seeing this, Liu Sheng couldn't help but squat beside the old man and saw that he had already harvested a lot of fish of different sizes in his bamboo basket.

I counted them and found there were fifteen fish. I couldn't help but feel envious.

So Liu Sheng sat next to the old man very naturally and watched him fishing quietly.

The old man glanced at her, said nothing, and continued to concentrate on fishing.

Soon, another fish was caught.

Continue to hook.

Fishing is a stressful and relaxing activity.

After you put the hook in, you need to wait quietly and patiently, and you don’t need to exert force until the fish takes the bait.

In this way, the cycle repeats itself with a proper balance between tension and relaxation.

Liu Sheng just looked at it like this, and before he knew it, he was mesmerized.

Her thoughts gradually drifted away from this place, returning to the memories that she had temporarily put aside.

From the day before yesterday to yesterday, she went directly from elementary school to high school in one day.

No one can imagine how much effort and time went into it.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and the rewards were not small.

First of all, in the "primary school to junior high school" copy, she finally won an F-level junior high school called "Victory Middle School". Although the level is low, at least she has completed the primary school to junior high school transition and can officially go to junior high school.

Second, there is another bigger gain.

At this moment, she sat by the clear pond, and let a part of her mind sink into the sea of ​​her heart, entering a new world.

She did not reveal her true identity, but used the full view mode and looked towards the academy.

At this time, training was going on in the academy.

The training targets the lecturers of the academy, and the main speaker is Liu Sheng’s homeroom teacher when he was studying at Hongxing Primary School.

Although he looked like he had no skin and looked scary, his teaching level was good and he understood all subjects. Liu Sheng could tell this from the fact that he could mark papers in all subjects.

So in the end, Liu Sheng said what reward he hoped to get - which was to be the class teacher.

It's just a job change, which is something the class teacher can decide. I believe this does not violate his promise.

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Sheng’s request, the head teacher laughed again.

“Do you have a school?”

"Do you have any students? How many are they?"

"What do I gain?"

These three questions will determine whether he will follow Liu Sheng.

"I have a school, and I will have an endless supply of students."

"You will not have any other future here. The knowledge you learn will only stay at this elusive stage. You will always be an ordinary elementary school teacher, and you have to watch over the transition from primary school to junior high school. Are you willing?"

Liu Sheng's question made his eyes change slightly.

It’s a pity that he has no eyelids, otherwise he would squint his eyes to show that he is thinking seriously and carefully.

"Moreover, the children there are semi-illiterate from the ancient world, and they are in great need of a good teacher with advanced knowledge to lead them. If you can teach them well and turn them from illiterate people lacking scientific literacy into knowledgeable and cultured young people, can you imagine how fulfilling it would be?"

"Secondly, you also know that the media loves to report these touching stories the most - old teachers give up their high salaries to teach in the ancient world, which really moves heaven and earth."

Liu Sheng said this with a harmless smile.
