Chapter 554: Fascinated by Listening
Jiang Lianzhu was also happy.
"Maybe your teacher is a good person, so he thinks everyone is good..."
Liao Jiu did not explain this point, and her wife had to experience it herself.
The class had not yet started, so Liao Jiu took Jiang Lianzhu to visit other places in Tianya Academy.
The three cubs, Dabao and Erbao went back to the classroom to attend class first, and sent Nanbao to Liao Jiu and the others.
Nanbao was also half a guide, chattering along the way introducing places to Jiang Lianzhu.
After all, she had attended college for a few days.
Tianya Academy is very big, and after walking around for a while, it was almost time.
The open class is held in the big square and is mainly divided into two areas, one for the students of the college and the other for external auditors.
There were not many outside spectators, so they occupied a small area, which was divided into two types: the VIP area and the ordinary area.
The VIP area is one of the additional sources of income for Tianya Academy.
Tianya Academy is a large institution with a large business and high expenses, as everyone understands.
This VIP area is either for high-priced VIPs or specially approved by the dean...
Anyway, they are all awesome people.
Liao Jiu, holding his daughter, found a seat in the VIP area with Jiang Lianzhu, and everyone's eyes turned to them.
They are considered "celebrities" in Beijing, and few people don't know them. Anyway, the couple is thick-skinned, so just look at them, without any fear.
Soon, the old dean came onto the stage wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking energetic.
"Everyone, welcome to Tianya Academy to listen to this old man's nonsense. I'm sure many of you have reserved expensive audition seats at our academy, surely hoping to hear me curse you out. But I'm sorry to disappoint you all. Today, I'll be discussing strange anecdotes, local customs, and schools of thought!"
Thunderous applause broke out all around.
"Students are willing to listen to whatever Dean Tan says!"
"President Tan, we're willing to listen to insults..."
Judging from the warm atmosphere at the scene, Jiang Lianzhu felt that the old dean was a really interesting person.
The old dean continued his lecture.
"Okay, since everyone is cheering me on, I'll continue. I've traveled to many places and seen many sights in my life. Today, I'll tell you about the strange stories of countries like Aquarius, Darong, and Dawu, and also tell you about some schools of thought..."
Everyone pricked up their ears and listened.
The old dean speaks humorously, with full energy, and his tone is ups and downs, which is fascinating.
Jiang Lianzhu and the others also listened with great interest.
Speaking of the customs and practices of Aquarius, both men and women are tall, some even blonde and blue-eyed, with fair skin. Women have no status and can be bought and sold, and wives can be shared. The climate is hot and humid year-round, with vast forests and heavy rain. There are many insects and snakes, and leeches grow on the trees. Once they get into a person, they can suck all the blood out of them. The mosquitoes in Aquarius are extremely poisonous, and a bite from some can cause a person to fall unconscious on the spot...
It is also said that the Darong Kingdom is an endless grassland with many fine horses and thousand-mile horses on the grassland. Wild sheep and buffaloes can be seen everywhere. The cattle and sheep can be seen when the wind blows the grass. The Darong Kingdom is a tribe-based country. Each tribe is led by a wizard. The people are brave and good at fighting. No matter whether they are men or women, everyone can ride and shoot. Both men and women are bold. As long as they like each other, they can have a short marriage. It is common for children to not be able to find their biological fathers.
Let’s talk about the Dawu Kingdom, which is also known as the Machinery Kingdom. It is a country with amazing craftsmanship. They built it in the sky and used a large magical mechanism to make the entire country float in the sky. Of course, the country is not big, it is equivalent to a capital city of the Da'an Kingdom. Every house and every street in it has a mechanism. Once you enter, if you don’t have a map or don’t follow the rules, you will get lost, just like being in a large maze and you can be trapped to death in it.
…
Everyone was fascinated by what they heard.
I was so impressed that I learned a lot.
Jiang Lianzhu had heard of the first two countries, but she had never seen the latter, the Great Wu Kingdom and the City in the Sky, and she was very much looking forward to it.
Be sure to go and see it if you have the chance.
The old dean is truly well-read and his lectures are easy to understand, humorous, and he occasionally quotes classics, which is also understandable to the public.
Both the students of the academy and the adults who came to listen were deeply impressed by the personal charm of the old dean.
Then, the old dean began to talk about schools of thought.
"...Finally, let me talk to you about schools. We are all ordinary people, but above the ordinary people, there are all kinds of mysterious and powerful people. These are the schools!
For example, in the geographical environment of Aquarius, a kind of poison master appeared. They used insects and snakes to refine poison, which they used to kill people invisibly, control the mind, and cure diseases and save lives.
For example, the wizards of the Darong Kingdom have totems and beliefs. They use the power of faith to connect with the moon god and have the ability to divine, astrology, kill people, and cure diseases and save lives.
For example, the mechanical engineers of the Great Wu Kingdom, their ingenuity is extraordinary, they are omnipotent, and they can make miracles happen...
There are also Taoist talismans, Buddhist monks, Confucian saints, and special animal tamers, etc., which are all part of the school.
The disciples of each school are all incredibly talented and extraordinary. Of course, you can just treat these as stories. The disciples of each school do not enter the world; after all, they exist in small numbers. Our Da'an country is peaceful and prosperous. Even if a powerful person comes to our Da'an country, he must obey our rules! "
After he finished speaking, many people in the audience started discussing.
For a moment, the scene was buzzing...
Jiang Lianzhu and Liao Jiu whispered to each other, "Your teacher is from the Confucian sage school, right?"
They had already seen the Gu Master before. The owner of Baihua Tower controlled people's brains with Gu poison.
Witchcraft, she now encountered the case of the War King again.
They hadn't encountered a true mechanical master yet. The small mechanisms in the Imperial Master's Mansion were probably nothing to a true mechanical master. He could raise an entire country and a city to the sky. How powerful was that!
To be honest, she had also encountered Taoist talismans, the reverse right and wrong talisman on Madam Zhou...
She also had a small glimpse of the Buddhist monk, Master Dazhi, who chanted scriptures to exorcise evil spirits.
Beastmaster, the Eagle Master before, the Snake Master later... I don't know if they are considered beastmasters.
As for the Confucian saint, Jiang Lianzhu remembered the story Liao Jiu had told her before, about how Tan Tao led his students to encounter robbery bandits on the road and scolded the bandits away, and said that Tan Tao's mouth was blessed... At that time, she just thought it was funny, but now when she thinks about it more deeply, which cruel bandit can be scolded away?
There must be something unknown in it.
Liao Jiu nodded slightly, "That should be the case. The teacher is in very good health. Sometimes purple energy gathers on his body. When he is out in the wild and has nothing to eat, wild animals will automatically come to his door and give him some wild fruits..."
