881: Chapter 246_5 881: Chapter 246_5 All of them were there to cultivate and heal their injuries, practicing their cultivation techniques in one room.
Cao Zhen did not resu cultivating the technique he had acquired before, instead, he began practicing the Prosperous Age Skills.
Soon, he realized that he had ford a strange connection with the world, but he couldn’t precisely define what it was.
Moreover, this connection felt incredibly delicate, as if it might break at any mont.
Before he knew it, a night had passed.
Cao Zhen’s injuries were still visible, but they had improved sowhat since yesterday.
At least, he no longer needed Qiao Jingyao’s support to walk.
After breakfast, it wasn’t long before the two children from the Xu Family clung to them, not to him, but to Qiao Jingyao, pleading with her to teach them to read.
Qiao Jingyao turned to Cao Zhen and asked, “Young Master, would you like to rest?
Shall I teach the children how to read?”
“That would be fine.”
Cao Zhen nodded slightly and returned to his room to continue cultivating and healing his injuries.
anwhile, Qiao Jingyao stayed outside teaching the children to read.
However, as Cao Zhen cultivated, he couldn’t help feeling frustrated by the slow pace of his recovery.
This was the first ti he had encountered such a situation since arriving in this world.
After all, most of the ti, he had simply needed to lie down and recover, and if lying down did not resolve the issue, he would use Pills.
This was the first ti he was confronted with a situation like this.
“I can’t continue cultivating.
If I do, I might end up cultivating inner demons.”
Cao Zhen stopped cultivating and slowly made his way outside, knowing from the many novels he read in his past life that this was not the ti to cultivate, but rather to make more contact with nature and the outside world.
However, given the extent of his injuries, he could not wander far and could only stay in the Xu Family’s courtyard, where Qiao Jingyao was teaching the children to read.
Xu Family Village wasn’t large, and word of a literate person’s arrival spread quickly.
Moreover, the doors of the village hos were often open, and even if they weren’t, one could see into the yards just by looking over the fences.
It didn’t take long for the villagers to notice that the Xu Family’s children were learning to read.
By evening, Elder Xu’s house was filled with people, so of whom had even brought along treasured foods from their own hos.
Cao Zhen quickly understood that the purpose of the villagers’ visit was to ask him to teach their children.
Education, whether in his previous life on Earth or in this era, was exceedingly rare.
Ordinary families rarely had the opportunity for their children to study.
Mainly because there was no one to teach them.
This era, much like the ti before the Song Dynasty on Earth, saw most books in the hands of powerful families or moderately prominent but less wealthy households, and not the truly impoverished.
It wasn’t just the poor families; even children from wealthier farr families lacked opportunities to study.
In Qili Country, there was a prevailing notion that all trades were inferior to the pursuit of scholarship, which is why Old Man Xu had shown him such respect upon discovering that he was a scholar.
Now, seeing that there was a scholar willing to teach, people imdiately brought their children hoping that Cao Zhen would educate them.
Seeing the crowd encircling them, Qiao Jingyao looked at Cao Zhen filled with apprehension, instinctively wanting to decline on his behalf.
Although Cao Zhen appeared amiable towards these commoners today, perhaps it was because he had indirectly been saved by Elder Xu, and since he was staying at Elder Xu’s house, he was friendly towards the Xu Family but not necessarily towards others.
Furthermore, she knew that Cao Zhen’s injuries were more severe than hers.
The fact that Cao Zhen had spent the day teaching two children was already surprising to her; perhaps he was simply in high spirits or repaying a kindness.
But it was unlikely that Cao Zhen would teach so many children; he needed to cultivate and treat his injuries.
Unexpectedly, Cao Zhen agreed to the request.
The following day, Cao Zhen genuinely began teaching the children, and to her greater surprise, she found that Cao Zhen was exceptionally adept at instructing the children in their studies.
She, too, had learned so knowledge in the past, having had her master specially hire a teacher for her.
However, she discovered that her forr teacher couldn’t compare to Cao Zhen’s ability to teach.
If she didn’t know who Cao Zhen was, she might have suspected that he was a natural-born teacher.
Cao Zhen had been in contact with Mozi, a top-level educator, and had also connected with scholars like Yu Qian.
With his own profound cultural knowledge, teaching children ca easily to him.
Qiao Jingyao initially thought that Cao Zhen’s interest in teaching would wane after a couple of days, but as ti went on, she observed that he took his teaching very seriously.
He even began writing a book to pass on to the children.
After all, he knew he would eventually leave, and he wouldn’t have much ti to teach the children.
These days, he spent his dayti teaching the children, while at night, he focused on cultivating and healing his wounds.
As ti passed, he found that his Healing Divine Power had little effect on his injuries.
His injuries were, after all, caused by a Tribulation Array.
Although the Tribulation Array had diminished in power due to the protective screen of the Age of Prosperity Ruins, the lightning and Fla Heavenly Disaster it produced were still part of the Heavenly Tribulation.
His current state was akin to a Silver Tier individual affected by an attack from a king-tier adversary.
With Silver Tier healing thods, naturally, he could not fully recover from these wounds.
