Chapter 267: The Lord’s Small Classroom
"Strong! Democratic! Civilized! Harmonious..." M. cascoo
As soon as Ji Ruo opened the door, he heard bursts of vigorous reading sounds coming from the opposite side.
An old professor with gray hair stood on the podium, stroking his beard, looking with a little satisfaction at the students of different colors, sizes, and even shapes who were reading very seriously below the podium.
These students learn very quickly.
"Are you in class?"
Ji Ruo stood outside the door, carrying the bedding wrapped around the god, and looked curiously inside through the door.
This was the first time he saw the main gods giving classes.
That’s right, opposite the portal is Shangxuanyuan of Daxia.
What Ji Ruo saw before him was the classroom where those captured main gods were studying.
From the core values of Daxia to various advanced national cultural ideas, and even some ancient books and allusions, classical Chinese recitations, etc.
It can be seen that the Lord Gods are learning very seriously.
Occasionally, when they encounter some slightly obscure points of knowledge, the main gods will politely ask the old professor.
The Lords are very smart, and their thinking speed is even comparable to that of regular supercomputers.
But even so, they still encounter problems.
Because the way gods think is different from that of humans, they are now asked to start from scratch and learn to consider issues from the perspective of a human being, which will of course lead to problems.
Ji Ruo did not disturb them. After all, it was class time. Ji Ruo was not in a hurry now and it would not be too late to talk about it after class.
So Ji Ruo also stood outside the door and listened.
He did not return to Daxia rashly because he was worried that he might be carrying some alien virus - although Ji Ruo himself did not think there was anything, the "Secret Realm·Mother Earth Continent" had not yet completely arrived. If some viruses or microorganisms followed Ji Ruo back to Daxia, and unpredictable changes occurred in that new environment, thus causing a plague or something, that would be bad.
Ji Xiaoxiao can come and go freely because this guy usually only goes to two places, one is Wanshou Mountain, and the other is the First Martial Arts School. Under normal circumstances, he will not enter Daxia, so there is no need to worry.
Moreover, it is not a living being at all, so it naturally cannot get sick - I have never heard of an inner demon catching a cold or a fever!
Neither viruses nor microorganisms can survive on it.
The most important thing is that Shangxuanyuan is the highest scientific research institution in Daxia. Let’s not talk about other aspects for now, especially the research in biology and chemistry, various types of laboratories, various culture dishes... The biological environment is extremely complex, so it is better to be cautious.
Although the portal was opened, as long as Ji did not pass through it, any new viruses or microorganisms he might be carrying would not be able to enter Shangxuanyuan.
While Ji Ruo was thinking, the question-and-answer session had already begun in the classroom behind the door.
The old professor asked the gods a series of philosophical questions from a human perspective.
The main gods were thinking, answering, and raising new questions, and the atmosphere in the classroom was extremely lively.
"How many times have I told you! Violence is not the only way to solve problems!"
The old professor suddenly became angry and scolded the God of Fire, who had a relatively bad temper. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the answer just given by the God of Fire Element.
And it seems that this is not the first time that the God of Fire Element has answered like this.
Upon hearing this, the God of Fire Element subconsciously said, "But... violence is the quickest way to solve a problem!"
"You have to remember that you are a god. The meaning of your existence is to help your believers live a better life... I remember I told you yesterday why humans have a fear and worship of fire."
"You said that fire is warmth and the light that dispels darkness at night. Learning to use fire is an important symbol of human evolution from the barbaric era of eating raw meat and drinking blood to the basic form of civilization..."
The God of Fire Element said cautiously: "But I think you are wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know... I have long forgotten this part of my memory, but I just feel that it is wrong..." After a pause, the God of Fire Element continued, "And you also said that any knowledge must be based on reality, triggered by reality, and specific problems must be analyzed specifically... You also said that professionals do professional things, and this principle also applies to us gods... You may be a very knowledgeable person among humans, but after all, I am the god in charge of the fire element... Don't you think this is the truth?"
The old professor held the ruler in his hand, pondered for a moment, and said in a cold voice: "You have a point, but times have changed. Your previous experience is useless."
"But……"
The old professor shook his head slightly: "Although I have never been a god, I know that what you did before was wrong. Forces act mutually, and so does faith. Think carefully, is it better for people to believe in you, love you, and respect you from the bottom of their hearts, or is it better for them to believe in you out of fear?"
The God of Fire compared them carefully and said cautiously: "Because of fear... This way you can gain faith faster..."
The other main gods said nothing, just waiting for this young man to take the lead.
No one is a fool. The God of Fire has a straightforward personality and is most suitable to be the first to take the lead.
"It's fast, but that's not what a god should do." The old professor said, "Have you ever thought about what would happen if one day your followers no longer feared death, and even felt that burning in flames was a supreme honor?"
The God of Fire was stunned for a moment: "Now I also have such believers... They will burn themselves with flames, and they believe that whoever can last longer in the flames has a more devout faith.
And it turns out that the faith of such believers is more pure.”
"More pure, then what?" The old professor spread his hands and said, "The faith of this kind of believers is even more crazy, and it's a one-time thing, right?"
"Ah, this..."
The old professor said, "You are right. You believe in God, so you must know more about this than I do. But now, what we need to learn is how to coexist peacefully with humans and how to become a good God who benefits the country and the people.
After all, this is the first time such a thing has happened. I can understand your confusion, so not only you have to learn, we have to learn too.
It is a good thing to express your own opinions in class, which helps to expand your thinking. However, after studying for several days, other students have gained some insights, but you are the only one who still retains your original ideas. What do you think, should you be punished?"
As he spoke, the old professor shook the ruler in his hand and said, "Stretch out your hand!"
The God of Fire immediately looked aggrieved and stretched out a flame in the shape of five fingers from the continuously burning and leaping flame body.
“Bang!”
The ruler fell, and its movement trajectory was natural, seemingly slow but actually fast, which made Ji Ruo's eyes light up.
The God of Fire let out a small "ah", and it didn't seem like he was pretending. It seemed that he really felt the pain.
"Go outside and stand there!"
"Okay, teacher."
Ji Ruo was happy. It seemed that these main gods were living quite well in Daxia.
Moreover, Ji Ruo always felt that the old professor's ruler had the same effect as the "causing 60% of real pain that ignores defense" that came with his own title of "Dog Nemesis".
