I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon

Chapter 364: Professor!

Ling pingan watched from the side for a while, but he didn’t see anyone came forward. He really did ask.

This was very normal.

Guangnan region was a relatively open region.

Open meant that there were many beliefs.

The local land, mountain gods, and city gods all had sacrifices.

In addition, there were Buddhists, Taoists, Jingism, Manichaeism, Fire worship..

All kinds of immortals, eight immortals crossing the sea.

Therefore…

The people of Guangnan were spoiled.

Religions that were not famous enough really did not have a market here.

If they did not have the names of Bodhisattvas and Daolords, they would not be able to survive.

Probably not many people had heard of an ancient belief like Lord Yunzhong.

Even if they had heard of him, not many people would think that he had any efficacious effect!

There was no other way!

Since ancient times, the people of the federation had always believed in spiritual principles. If they did not believe in them, they would not believe in them.

Therefore, many people were very particular about burning incense and worshiping Buddha.

Bodhisattvas and Daolords worshiped together. The places of Jingism, Manichaeism, and Zoroastrianism could also go in to worship and burn a stick of incense.

In any case, the simple people had their own simple beliefs.

Bodhisattvas were not afraid of worshiping many times, as well as burning incense.

After waiting for a while, Ling pingan realized that no one came forward.

And the father and the daughter were not in a hurry at all.

The little girl would come out every few minutes to bow and say something.

And the muscular man had his eyes closed the whole time. He sat on the ground and did not move.

“Strange!” Ling Pingan felt that he could not understand it.

Logically speaking, it should not be like this.

If there was no business, why weren’t the father and daughter in a hurry?

Looking at their attire…

The little girl was wearing a cotton-padded jacket, a brand new bright red cotton-padded jacket.

She looked delicate and cute, and she wore bracelets on her two small hands.

It wasn’t obvious what color they were, but they seemed to be quite old.

She wore a pair of very old cloth shoes which made them looked hand-stitched.

As for that man, he was even more interesting.

His upper body was naked as he sat on the floor.

However, when the cold wind blew on his body, it was as if there was no wind at all.

There seemed to be tattoos on his body, as if he was some kind of ancient god.

The pants on his lower body were made of blue coarse cloth.

It felt like he had just come out of a museum.

“Dear fathers and elders… Dear brothers and sisters…”the little girl rang the gong again and went forward to cupped her hands like an adult. “We, father and daughter, have come from Chu and passed by the precious place…”

“According to the teachings of our ancestors, please hold the spirit…”

At this moment, someone finally moved.

It was an old man who looked to be in his sixties.

“Little Doll…” he chuckled and asked, “Why aren’t you in school?”

The surrounding spectators, including Ling pingan, all pricked up their ears.

This was because the law of the Federal Empire stated that the right to education was a natural human right that no one or any organization had the right to deprive!

Even the Supreme Court could not deprive this right.

The compulsory education law clearly stated that anyone who obstructed or restricted the right to education would be suspected of ‘obstructing education’.

The maximum sentence was ten years!

Furthermore, the right to custody of the suspect could be deprived!

This little girl looked to be at most seven years old.

She belonged to the scope of the Compulsory Education Law’s protection!

“Grandpa…”the little girl bowed calmly. “I have a ‘family education order’…”

She took out a certificate.

Then, she took out a document from the governor-general’s district of Jingchu. “I got full marks for each of my exams last year!”

As she spoke, she raised her head proudly.

“Family Education Order?” Ling pingan slowly frowned.

He knew about this. The Federal Empire’s compulsory education law had ‘Other Education Regulations’.

Among them, those who were qualified could apply for family education.

But they had to guarantee their results!

In addition, there were also strict restrictions!

One of them was that the provider of family education had to have at least a professor degree!

In other words..

That man who was currently naked was actually a professor or even a grand secretary?

This time, Ling Pingan wasn’t the only one who was surprised.

The others all started discussing.

A scholar who was at least a professor was sitting on the ground?

One had to know that the Federal Empire’s educational system was extremely valuable.

The higher one went, the more valuable it was!

A university graduate was a bachelor who continued to study for eight years. Only after the defense and examination could one obtain a doctorate diploma.

Postdocs could enter university campuses or research institutions to engage in education and research. Only those with outstanding results could obtain the Certificate of a professor.

Professors continued to research and continued to teach.

Only after going through an extremely complicated process and passing a very difficult assessment can one become a grand secretary!

A grand secretary was at the top of the pyramid in the academic field.

He was also a highly respected leader.

Since the previous dynasty, cabinet ministers had been Grand Secretaries!

Taizu founded the country, reformed the education system, and returned the Grand Secretary to his original position as a leader in the academic and scientific fields.

Like the Datong Party and the Gonghe party, it was the Grand Master’s club.

Only the Grand Master could participate in the final policy formulation.

This was the filtering design in the system design.

To prevent the legalization of entertainment design.

This design, while ensuring that the national policy always came from the hands of the elites.

It also made the position of the top talents extremely lofty!

Although professors were not as good as grand secretaries, they were still candidates for Grand Secretaries.

As long as one was willing to be an official, one could easily obtain a position on the side of the Datong Party or the Gonghe party.

One could at least become a member of the policy committee at the local city level, right?

How did such a figure end up here?

Could it be?

Ling pingan could not help but imagine a scene of the upper echelons fighting each other in his mind.

But..

Since ancient times… They couldn’t punish a doctor!

Intellectuals valued dignity the most!

No matter how much they fought, it was impossible to push a high-level intellectual who was at least a professor onto the streets!

So..

Either she was lying!

Or..

This man was..

“Experiencing life!”

This term surfaced in Ling Pingan’s mind.

Not all of the high-level intellectuals in the empire followed the right path.

Those who liked scientific research would not come out to face the right path unless they were forced into a corner.

Similarly, there were also intellectuals in the fields of art, humanities, and history.

For example, Chen Anning, the most famous grand scholar of the Gonghe party in modern times, who had written the book “Neo-confucian ethics and capitalism,” was a scientist who studied physics before the Gonghe party.

Legend has it that he was disgusted by the actions of the Datong Party back then.

As soon as he came out of the mountain, he took out the banner of ‘libertarianism’, consolidated the strength of the Gonghe party, and defeated the Datong Party in one fell swoop!

So..

Many grand scholars actually liked to mingle in the marketplace before the Gonghe party, doing what they liked.

Scientific research, archaeology..

There was even a grand scholar who was rumored to be the author of a certain manga.

Many people confidently claimed that every time that Grand Scholar decided to retire, that manga would start serializing.

When he came out of retirement, that manga would announce that it would stop publishing.

It was impossible for people not to suspect it!

Thinking of this, Ling pingan thought to himself, “Is he a professor who likes to study traditional culture and is addicted to Jiu Ge?”

If that was the case, it wouldn’t be strange.

The nine songs was a masterpiece of classical literature!

Qu Zi’s immortal work!

It wasn’t strange that high-level intellectuals liked to study it.

What was strange was that they were studying it on the altar!
