Words Strategize for the World

Evening, on the banks of the Jushui River...

Occasionally a breeze would come, carrying petals that would flutter down from the trees...

At this moment, the beautiful sunset seemed reluctant to leave, dyeing everything in a golden-red hue...

In a daze, between dreaming and waking, Fang Wei heard an anxious voice calling to him from afar.

"Little Wei, Little Wei..."

Fang Wei suddenly woke up.

After sitting up, what came into view was a vast expanse of green mountains.

There is a canyon in the middle of the green mountains. On the right side of the canyon, against the mountain, there is a clear stream with crystal clear water and many small fish swimming around.

A young man was running towards him anxiously from a distance.

Where am I? Wasn't I practicing calligraphy?

Fang Wei was incredulous. "Am I dreaming?"

Where is the spacious study? Where is the pear wood desk, and where are the exquisite four-piece set that cost tens of thousands of RMB?

I should be dreaming. Yes, I'm still dreaming. I just need to sleep.

Fang Wei closed his eyes again.

……

When Fang Wei opened his eyes again, everything was still the same.

Why am I still here? What's going on?

Buddha, Jesus Christ, Guanyin Bodhisattva... please don't mess with me.

"Xiao Wei, are you hurt anywhere?" The young man finally came to his side.

Fang Wei noticed that the young man's clothes were strange, resembling the attire of the Ming Dynasty in a TV drama. His handsome face was filled with anxiety.

Who is this unfamiliar young man? How does he know me? As soon as Fang Wei started to think, a flood of memories rushed into his mind, and Fang Wei's question was answered.

So, this isn't Earth anymore.

This world is called the Eternal Peace Continent, and it is home to five kingdoms: the Overlord Kingdom, the Cold Kingdom, the Shadow Kingdom, the Flame Kingdom, and the Blazing Kingdom. The Overlord Kingdom is the strongest, and the Blazing Kingdom is the weakest…

The young man before me is Fang Yue, a very good playmate among his peers. Fang Yue lost both his parents at the age of six and never had the chance to attend school. When Fang Wei began his early education in the children's curriculum, Fang Yue accompanied him and learned to read and write alongside him…

Just then, a strong obsession suddenly appeared in Fang Wei's mind: to become a refined scholar. This obsession was so strong that he could not shake it off no matter what.

What is a refined scholar? The answer that followed surprised Fang Wei greatly.

It turns out that on the Yongping Continent, writing is not just used for writing articles or expressing ideas, but also possesses astonishing power. And the refined scholars are those who can wield the power of writing.

Scholars who wield the power of words can fight on their own or assist armies. And what's most remarkable is that an army aided by scholars can defeat an army ten times larger than one without their assistance.

……

Scholars are an indispensable and important part of Yongping Continent.

Because of the refined scholars, the world is teeming with literary figures, and these refined scholars are the cream of the crop, the pillars of the nation.

To become a refined scholar is the highest pursuit of all scholars on the Yongping Continent. Those who achieve this status have limitless potential, becoming powerful figures revered by countless others.

However, becoming a refined person is not an easy task.

A refined scholar must first master the rhythm of words, then their manipulation, and gradually cultivate this skill...

"Xiao Wei, are you alright?" Fang Yue's anxious voice came at the critical moment.

Sensing Fang Yue's anxiety and deep concern, Fang Wei, who had transmigrated from another era, felt much more at ease.

After taking a moment to prepare his words, Fang Wei replied, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Just as Fang Weigang finished speaking, another anxious voice came from ahead.

Following the sound, a blurry figure was running rapidly towards them.

Zhao Tong, also known as Tongzi, is a childhood friend. He is tall and strong, with superhuman strength. He comes from a good family and is skilled in martial arts. It is difficult for three or four strong men to get close to him.

After a moment, Zhao Tong came closer and carefully examined Fang Wei before saying, "Since Fang Wei is alright, let's go home first."

Fang Wei followed the two men, walking along the path by the river.

Fang Wei was extremely surprised. The time travel had actually happened to him! Would he be incredibly powerful afterward? Wealthy beyond measure? Powerful beyond measure? Famous and successful? With beautiful women all around him?

On the way home, Fang Wei remained silent, sorting out his thoughts. Fang Yue and Zhao Tong were very worried and asked him several times, but Fang Wei always evaded their questions.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, wisps of smoke rose from chimneys ahead, and houses appeared one after another, with the sounds of roosters crowing, dogs barking, and various livestock calling out.

As night falls, every household lights a fire to cook, and smoke rises from the rooftops.

The small village is peaceful and harmonious.

The three stopped in front of a detached house. Fang Yue and Zhao Tong looked at Fang Wei again, and after finding that Fang Wei was alright, they separated and went home with slight concern.

Before leaving, Fang Yue said, "Xiao Wei, you fell off the ridge in the field today. Although you are fine, remember not to mention it to your aunt when you get back, so as not to worry her."

Fang Wei nodded heavily.

After the two left, Fang Wei looked at the familiar house in front of him and knew that this was his current home.

Everything felt both familiar and strange.

Fang Wei slowly pushed open the door, and a thin figure was busy in front of the stove.

Hearing the door open, the busy figure turned around, smiled wearily, and said, "Xiao Wei is back. Dinner will be ready soon. You can rest for a bit."

The mother in this world was somewhat hunched over, with graying temples, clearly indicating that she had overworked herself.

Fang Wei gave a soft "hmm" and then walked towards the room he remembered.

His mother was still cooking, and there was still some time before dinner, so Fang Wei needed to sort out his thoughts.

Fang Wei is currently in a place called Jushui Village, a small, remote, and impoverished village in the far south of the Chi Kingdom. Not far away is Shaogang County...

"Xiao Wei, come out for dinner."

Upon hearing his mother's voice, Fang Wei quickly responded and sat down at the table.

Fang Weigang had just transmigrated and didn't know what to say, so he just ate in silence.

"Xiao Wei, tomorrow is Rhythm Day. You don't need to force yourself. It would be good if you could become a refined person. If you can't, don't be too hard on yourself. Just do your best."

Upon hearing the concerned words, Fang Wei stopped what he was doing and looked at his mother across from him.

My mother, overworked, has many gray hairs at her temples, a sallow complexion, and a thin body...

As he looked, Fang Wei's eyes welled up with tears. To his father, mother, grandfather, and grandmother in the other world, I hope you enjoy good health and longevity, free from illness and disaster. Please forgive Fang Wei for being unfilial, unable to take care of you any longer.

Suppressing his guilt, Fang Wei pondered: Now that I've traveled here, I don't know if I'll be able to travel back. This family may be poor, but the people here are very warm.

With this in mind, Fang Wei made up his mind. Now that I'm here, I'll take responsibility, support this family, and make life better for the mothers of this world.

Having made up his mind, Fang Wei firmly replied to his mother, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely strive to become a refined scholar so that you can live a good life."

Hearing Fang Wei's firm words, his mother felt as if Fang Wei had grown up.

"Yes, Mother believes you. Eat quickly, we have a long journey tomorrow, so get some rest after you finish eating."

"Um"
