Yi Zheng pointed at the big rabbit. “What’s your name?”
The guy cocked his head. No name, obviously.
Yi Zheng immediately said, “Since you’re so smart, you’ll be called Zi Lu in the future!”
“Oh, sure.” The rabbit obviously didn’t know what the homophone of the name meant. Anyway, since the boss had said so, he used it.
Yi Zheng thought for a moment. He had already taught ‘Analects’ the wrong way. If he used ‘Analects’ again, he would be letting Confucius down.
Therefore, Yi Zheng changed the ‘Analects’ on the blackboard to ‘Rabbit Analects’. Then he changed Confucius to Terror.
Then, Yi Zheng turned to look at a group of rabbits and said, “Terror is your ancestor! You’ve also felt it. When you work out, you can grow taller and your figure will become more and more muscular. Our ancestor is three meters tall! His muscles are all over his body, and his strength can uproot mountains and overturn rivers. He can grab the sun, moon, and stars with one hand!
He was the man at the top of the food chain!
He was the greatest terror in the hearts of all living beings!
That’s why he’s called ‘Terror’.”
Hearing this, the rabbits’ eyes lit up and they couldn’t help but chant, “Terror, Terror, Terror!”
The chants spread in all directions like a tsunami.
In Beginner’s Village No. 1, people were running missions when Fatty suddenly stopped and asked Chen Hao, “Did you hear that?”
Chen Hao looked at him suspiciously. “Hear what?”
Fatty said: “Why do I think I hear someone shouting for Confucius outside the village?”
Chen Hao rolled his eyes. “You’re imagining things. There are no players out there. You don’t think those rabbits know about Confucius, do you?”
“That’s true… They’re already big hooligans. It would be terrible if they were more cultured.” Fatty never dreamed that his worst fears were happening!
…
Swish, swish, swish…
Another line appeared on the blackboard. Yi Zheng pointed at the words and shouted, “Read it with me. If the nobleman lacks weight, then he will not inspire awe in others!”
The rabbits chanted, “If the nobleman lacks weight, then he will not inspire awe in others!”
“As for what it means…” Yi Zheng pondered for a moment before pointing at Zi Lu. “Zi Lu, explain.”
Zi Lu immediately said, “A gentleman must be ruthless in a fight. Otherwise, he won’t be able to establish his prestige!”
Yi Zheng knew that Zi Lu would not disappoint him.
At this moment, Zi Lu suddenly asked, “Boss, could this be the rule set by our ancestor ‘Terror’ back then?”
Yi Zheng nodded without thinking. “Yes, it’s the written rules! So everyone has to learn well, understand?”
“Yes!” The rabbits’ enthusiasm to learn was unprecedented!
Yi Zheng continued writing. “Since we have come, let us stay and enjoy it! Zi Lu!”
Zi Lu immediately explained, “Since we’re here, let’s bury him here!”
Yi Zheng gave him a thumbs up. He really thought that Zi Lu was a talent.
“If three walk together, one can be my teacher, Zi Lu!”
“Among three people walking, as long as one of them is me, their combat power is equivalent to a division!”
Those whose parents are still alive should not travel to far-off places. If they have to, then they should have a certain destination. Zi Lu!”
“I have your parents in my hands. You can’t run. Even if you do, I have a way to get you back!”
“Preparedness ensures success, unpreparedness spells failure.”
“As long as you hesitate in a fight, the other party will stand up. You can cripple the other party without hesitation.”
Listening to these words, Yi Zhen was really impressed by Zi Lu. Its brain was simply different from that of a normal rabbit.
This was only in the game. If they were on Earth, he would have been pulled out and sliced.
Yi Zheng continued writing.
“Having heard the Way in the morning, one may die content in the evening. Zi Lu!”
However, Zi Lu disappointed Yi Zheng this time. He looked at those words and was in a daze for a while. In the end, he said bitterly, “Boss, please give me some pointers. I don’t understand this.”
Yi Zheng was dumbfounded. Explain according to the normal explanation? That won’t do. That was what Confucius said, not Terror!
However, this was not difficult for Yi Zheng. He took a deep breath and said, “If I find out the way to your house in the morning, you will die tonight!”
“Roar!”
The rabbits burst into flames at that and started shouting excitedly.
Yi Zheng also blended into the atmosphere and continued his teaching work.
“He who is not strong enough will be crippled in the middle. Zi Lu!”
“I understand. Those who are not as strong as me will be crippled by me halfway! Patriarch Terror, mighty!”
“A nobleman loves money, he makes his wealth in ethical means! Zi Lu!”
“I like money, so it makes sense to take yours!”
“The devil travels east and sees two children debating the sun. Zi Lu! Sit down. There’s no need to explain…”
Yi Zheng suddenly realized that his words were too ambiguous and quickly told Zi Lu to shut up.
As a result, another large rabbit jumped out. “I know. What this sentence means is that Terror has gone to the east to fight, and the children are discussing whether those who fight with him will see the sun tomorrow.”
Yi Zheng was stunned. He did not expect such an explanation, so he asked, “What’s your name… Forget it, you definitely don’t have a name. From today onwards, your name will be Zi Gong!”
“Yes, boss!” The rabbit answered immediately.
Yi Zheng continued to teach. From time to time, he would hear the system notification that the rabbit’s intelligence had increased slightly. Then, from time to time, a rabbit with excellent comprehension ability would jump out and explain.
It was unknown if it was a coincidence or not, but in the end, Yi Zheng actually managed to find 36 smart rabbits in a group of rabbits.
These 36 rabbits were all given names by Yi Zheng, with the surname Zi. Their names imitated the 72 disciples of Confucius, but he was not called a disciple here, but the 36th Hall Master.
However, Yi Zheng had a wish — to gather 72 Hall Masters!
But he was in no hurry. There was a long road ahead. He would take his time.
With these 36 smart rabbits leading the way, Yi Zheng was able to control the rabbit army more easily.
However, Yi Zheng also realized that these rabbits were still very talented in combat, but in other aspects, they were quite lousy.
However, Yi Zheng was not in a hurry. He could teach them slowly and take his time. It was just that when he thought about the strange way these rabbits thought, he did not know where he could take them in the end. Most likely, he would have to chop his way up to the Southern Heavenly Gate with a kitchen knife.
At the same time, Yi Zheng had also recruited wild boars, snakes, chickens, and other wild monsters. However, they were all distributed to the various halls as fitness equipment and weapons.
In the end, he didn’t waste the equipment that the players had dropped. He let the rabbits wear it whenever they could because they weren’t players. It didn’t matter if the system admitted it or not after they wore it. It was important to disgust the other party.
