She remained motionless, staring blankly at the mountains and rivers before her, silently feeling their pulse, and recalling the knowledge of this world in her mind.
From his memories, Bai Chongjiang learned that there were also stories like Pangu creating the world, Nuwa creating humans, Kuafu chasing the sun, and Jingwei filling the sea here, but they were portrayed in more detail, and they even still exist in a certain world.
The human world is composed of many countries and tribes. In addition to humans, there are also races such as half-demon, demon, dragon, Nuwa, gods, monsters, ghosts, and foxes living together on the earth.
There are many cultivation sects scattered across various spiritually rich immortal mountains, making it a colorful and diverse world.
The two walked for a while longer and found a pavilion to sit down. Ji Yi took out the things he had brought.
Ji Yi laid out several kinds of dried fruit, snacks, and candies in front of him and said, "Ah Jiang, you didn't eat breakfast this morning, did you? Eat something first, and we'll go to the canteen for lunch later."
Although Xiao Pang looks a bit simple-minded, he's a really good person and cares a lot about his friends.
Taking the soft pastry from his hand, Ah Jiang ate it carefully, bite by bite.
“Ah Jiang, this morning you had classes taught by Master Liang and Master Zhou. Master Liang was teaching the Lesser Volume of the Mathematical Classic, which I didn’t understand. Master Zhou was teaching the Lesser Xia Zheng. I wrote down the content for you. You’re so smart, you’ll definitely understand it after just one look.”
Bai Chongjiang nodded as she ate the pastries, thinking to herself, "So I also have a persona of being intelligent."
"However, I didn't write much down; there were many parts I didn't understand."
She resided at the Zhaoxian Taoist Temple in the Great Xia Kingdom.
The secular courses at Zhaoxian Taoist Academy consist of eight subjects: literature and history, etiquette and music, martial arts, numerology, alchemy, talismans, weapon crafting, and beast taming.
The first four subjects were taught uniformly by the Master, while the latter four subjects depended on individual talent and interest; in modern terms, they were electives.
The first three years after entering the academy are the introductory stage, in which students acquire basic knowledge and skills. After that, there are six years of study. The class schedule is relatively flexible, with two classes every morning, one lecture per month, and the rest of the time is arranged by the students themselves.
Nine years later, they can graduate. Those who pass the course will receive a letter of recommendation from the Taoist academy, or become officials in the imperial court, or have other opportunities.
If your grades are unsatisfactory, you won't get a letter of recommendation. Even if you say you graduated from Zhaoxian Taoist Academy, they will know that you failed the exam.
Besides its excellent teachers, this Taoist academy is most famous for a type of spring water called Hanqi Spring Water. Long-term consumption can improve one's spiritual roots and strengthen one's tendons and marrow; it is no ordinary product.
Outstanding students at the Taoist academy could receive spring water as a reward, so major families sent their children to study at the academy.
"Ah Jiang, Ah Jiang?" A pair of chubby hands waved in front of her.
Bai Chongjiang snapped out of her reverie and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Ah Jiang, you're acting strange today. Why are you always spacing out?"
Little Fatty noticed that his friends were acting strangely, quite different from usual.
She's usually like a kitten, speaking very softly, always with her head down, and eating in small bites.
She was sitting cross-legged on the grass, popping pastries into her mouth, exuding an air of nonchalance that left Xiao Pang completely baffled.
"No, I just didn't sleep well last night. By the way, where did you say you lived?"
Bai Chongjiang didn't expect the little fat guy to think so much, so he casually asked a question.
Little Fatty thought Bai Chongjiang's question was a bit strange, but he still answered, "In Yangzhuo."
"My home is in Junzhou," Bai Chongjiang said, gazing into the distance.
"Oh, so you're homesick?" Little Fatty Ji Yi seemed to have figured out the reason for his friend's strange behavior and said with a smile.
