Taichu Yandao: Starting from the Villain

Time flies, and it is spring of the next year in a blink of an eye.

On this morning, after Yang Yongqing finished lecturing on a passage from the Book of Songs, he put the book down and said, "Spring ploughing will begin soon. As usual, this semester will end here..."

There was an immediate commotion below the podium, and everyone was excited and shouted, "It's over, let's go home!"

"Really? Can we go home now?"

Yang Yongqing coughed hard and said, "Be quiet, everyone. I haven't said anything yet! This year's spring farming season is very busy, so you have to stay in the school."

There was a roar of booing from the audience below the stage, and everyone looked dejected, like defeated roosters.

Yang Yongqing waited until everyone's emotions had dropped to the freezing point, and then he said, "Although you will continue to stay in the academy, many of you have already become monks. As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. We can't eat for free every day. During the spring ploughing season, we have to help everyone with farm work."

Below the podium, everyone's emotions were aroused once again. They were confined in the school and had been looking forward to getting out for a long time.

"Farm work is good. I like farm work the most."

"Master, when is it?"

"Master, can I see my mother?"

Yang Yongqing waited until everyone had finished asking questions, then said with a smile, "Well, that depends on my mood. You have to perform well and meet my requirements."

At this moment, a yellow paper crane suddenly flew into the school and landed on Yang Yongqing's shoulder.

Yang Yongqing was quite surprised. He put the paper crane to his ear and listened: "The rice seedlings have just been planted and they need water. Come quickly."

Yang Yongqing frowned, and with a pinch of his hand, the paper crane turned into ashes and flew away. He said, "Well, I feel like I'm in a good mood today. Everyone, go get some buckets, and we'll set off now."

Below the stage, a group of students were greatly surprised, but the smiles on their faces were as bright as if it were Chinese New Year. They threw away their pens and rushed out of the lecture hall.

In just a cup of tea, everyone stood neatly in the yard with buckets, ladles, and other utensils in their hands.

At this time, Cao Xiu Xiu and the old woman in green also rushed over and stood behind Yang Yongqing.

"Everyone, when we go out, we will represent the school. You must listen to the teachers. If you dare to run around, then don't go out tomorrow." Yang Yongqing said.

"Got it!" the students below said in unison.

"Then let's set off now." Yang Yongqing walked to the gate of the school, made a gesture, and pointed a finger at the restriction on the gate.

About half an hour later, by the river.

Ten water wheels are placed in a row, turning slowly when stepped on, pumping clear river water into the canal.

From a distance, Yang Yongqing called out, "Girls, take a break, let us take over."

On the waterwheel, everyone turned around with smiles on their faces, except for a young man in a blue-gray short coat who said, "Master, I am a boy, not a girl."

As soon as he said this, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Li Wujiu recognized Yuntian in the crowd and rushed forward, shouting, "Second brother, why are you here?"

"Little brother, it's only been half a year since we last met, and you've already broken through to the first level of Qi training!" Yun Tian was surprised and jumped off the waterwheel in a hurry.

Li Wujiu threw himself into Yuntian's arms, tears welling up in his eyes, and asked, "Where's Dad? Where's Mom? Where are they?"

"They are working in our fields, so far away from here!" Yuntian helped Li Wujiu wipe away his tears.

Li Wujiu frowned, his face full of disappointment, and said, "Then tell mom to let him come here tomorrow."

"You are already a monk, why are you still crying? Aren't you ashamed?"

At this time, Cao Xiuxiu caught up with her, expressionless on her face, and said, "Within one stick of incense, we have to step on the water wheel for 10,000 times. Others have already started, when will you start?"

Normally, Li Wujiu would run faster than anyone else, but today with Yun Tian present, he instinctively hid in Yun Tian's arms.

however……

Yuntian pushed him out and said, "Hello, Instructor Cao, let's start now."

Then, he carried Li Wujiu onto the waterwheel, patted his shoulder and said, "My little brother, you can't afford to slack off in your practice. You have to listen to Master Cao. Come on!"

Li Wujiu was already on the waterwheel before he could react. He was puzzled when he suddenly heard Cao Xiuxiu say coldly:

"Xiaotian, after leaving the academy, are you still doing your daily exercises?"

"I'm holding on. How can I not hold on? Well, Instructor Cao, I still have farm work to do at home, so I'll leave first." Yuntian turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared on the ridge of the field.

"Brother Tian...he seems to be afraid of Instructor Cao as well!" Li Wujiu hurriedly picked up the waterwheel and stepped on it hard.

Amid the creaking sound of the mechanism, an incense stick of time passed quickly, until the last person stepped on it ten thousand times, Cao Xiuxiu finally said, "Okay, let's change people, come down and rest!"

Li Wujiu had just put all his strength into pressing the opponent, at least twelve thousand times. Now seeing that the opponent was the last one left, he cried out in his heart that he had been cheated, but he did not dare to say anything.

After jumping off the waterwheel, he sat down on the edge of the field, supported himself with his hands, and spread his legs on the weeds.

Late spring and early summer is the season when grass grows and birds fly. From time to time, the sound of insects can be heard in the fields, like a passionate sonata.

A breeze blew by, and Li Wujiu opened his arms, feeling the cool breeze.

Li Wujiu was feeling very happy when he suddenly felt an itch on his face. He didn't know what was jumping onto his face.

He was greatly alarmed and hurriedly drove it away with his hands.

A longhorn beetle with a shiny black body and red stripes on its neck flew up, flapped its wings, and landed on a leaf of dogtail grass.

Li Wujiu's face was full of anger, but he slowly approached, and suddenly his hand moved as fast as lightning and grabbed the longicorn.

That day the bull was suddenly caught and immediately struggled with all its might, its whip-like tentacles dancing constantly, its hind legs flapping wildly, and its mouthparts opening and closing left and right.

Li Wujiu became playful and pinched off a blade of grass, put it near the mouth of the longicorn, and kept teasing it.

He was having fun when Gu Yanjun's voice suddenly asked from a distance, "What are you playing?"

Li Wujiu raised the Longniu forward and said, "This is my Red Tassel General. You haven't seen him before!"

"Isn't this just a longhorn beetle? What's so special about it?"

Li Wujiu held the longicorn in front of Gu Yanjun and said, "Its neck is red and it is very strong."

Gu Yanjun looked closely and saw a bright red circle on the beetle's neck. She was immediately interested and said, "Let me see."

As she spoke, she stretched out a hand and pretended to take it.

Li Wujiu retracted his hand, raised his little face and said: "No, this is what I found."

Gu Yanjun's face suddenly turned ugly, and she said, "I just wanted to see why you are so stingy."

The sound of the two people fighting immediately attracted the other two girls. They stood behind Gu Yanjun and said:

"How do you prove that you discovered this first?"

"Li Wujiu, how dare you steal Sister Jun's things."

Seeing that there were more people on her side, Gu Yanjun became more confident. She took a step forward and reached out to grab it.

Li Wujiu's face flushed red, and he stepped back hastily, saying in defense, "I clearly found this."
