Ling Ping'an watched from the side for a while and did not see anyone coming forward. As expected, he asked.
This was very normal.
The Guangnan area was a relatively open area.
The meaning of open meant that there were more beliefs.
The local land, mountain gods, and city gods all had sacrifices.
In addition, there were Buddhism, Taoism, Nestorianism, Manichaeism, and Zoroastrianism...
All kinds of immortals crossed the sea.
So...
The appetite of the people of Guangnan was also spoiled.
Religions that were not famous enough really had no market here.
If they did not have the title of Bodhisattva or Daoist Lord, they would not be able to survive.
Probably not many people had heard of an ancient faith like Lord Yunzhong.
Even if they had heard of it, not many people would think that it had any efficacious effect!
There was no other way!
Since ancient times, the people of the Federation had always believed in what was good.
Therefore, many people burned incense and worshipped Buddha.
Bodhisattva and Daoist Lord worshipped together. The places of Nestorianism, Manichaeism, and Zoroastrianism could also be entered to worship and burn incense.
In any case, the simple people had their own simple beliefs.
Bodhisattva was not afraid of more worship, and incense was not afraid of more burning!
After waiting for a while, Ling Ping'an realized that no one came forward.
And the father and daughter were not in a hurry at all.
Every few minutes, the little girl would come out to greet him with cupped hands and say something.
As for the strong man, he kept his eyes closed and sat on the ground, not moving at all.
"Strange!" Ling Ping'an felt that he could not understand.
Because logically speaking, it should not be like this?
There was no business, so why were the father and daughter not in a hurry?
Looking at their clothes...
The little girl was wearing a cotton-padded jacket, a brand-new red cotton-padded jacket.
She looked like she was carved from jade and was very cute. She wore bracelets on her two little hands.
He could not tell what color it was, but it seemed to be old.
She was wearing a pair of very old cloth shoes that looked like they were hand-sewn.
And that man was even more interesting.
His upper body was naked and he sat on the ground.
But when the cold wind blew on his body, it was as if it did not blow at all.
There seemed to be tattoos on his body, like some kind of ancient god or monster.
The pants on his lower body were made of blue coarse cloth.
It felt like he came out of a museum.
"Dear elders... Dear brothers..." The little girl rang the gong again and went forward to cup her hands like a little adult, "We came from Chu and passed by your precious land..."
"According to the teachings of our ancestors, please support the spirit..."
At this moment, someone finally moved.
It was an old man who looked to be in his sixties.
"Little doll …" She chuckled and asked, "Why aren't you going to school?"
The onlookers, including Ling Ping'an, all pricked up their ears.
That was because the laws of the Federal Empire stipulated that the right to education was an innate human right. No one or any organization had the right to deprive it!
Even the Supreme Court could not deprive him of this right.
The compulsory education law also clearly stated that anyone who obstructed or restricted the right to education would be suspected of the crime of obstructing education.
The maximum sentence was ten years!
Furthermore, they could deprive the suspect of custody!
This little girl looked to be at most seven years old.
She was under the protection of the compulsory education law!
"Granny …" The little girl bowed unhurriedly. "I have a 'Family Education Order' …"
She took out a certificate.
Then she took out a document from the Governor's District of Jingchu, "I got full marks for every exam last year!"
With that, she raised her head proudly.
"Family Education Order?" Ling Ping'an slowly frowned.
He knew about this. The Federal Empire's compulsory education law had 'other education provisions'.
Among them, those who were qualified could apply for family education.
But they had to guarantee their results!
In addition, there were strict restrictions!
One of them was that the provider of family education had to have a professor's degree or above!
In other words …
That naked man was actually a professor or even a grand scholar?
This time, Ling Ping'an was not the only one who was surprised.
The others started to discuss.
A scholar who was at least a professor was sitting on the ground?
One had to know that the educational system of the Federal Empire was very valuable.
The higher it was, the more valuable it was!
A university graduate was a bachelor's degree. Only after eight years of further study and passing the defense and examination could one obtain a doctorate certificate.
A postdoctoral student would enter a university campus or a research institute and engage in education and research. Only those who had outstanding results could obtain a professor's certificate.
The professor continued to research and teach.
Only after an extremely complicated procedure and passing a very difficult examination could one become a grand scholar!
The grand scholar was at the top of the pyramid in the academic field.
He was also a respected leader.
Since the previous dynasty, the cabinet ministers had been grand scholars!
Taizu founded the country and reformed the education system, returning the grand scholar to his original position as the leader of the academic and scientific field.
For example, the Datong Party and the Gonghe Party were the grand scholar club.
Only the grand scholar could participate in the final policy formulation.
This was the filter design of the system design.
It was to prevent the entertainment design of the government.
This design ensured that the national policy was always the work of the elites.
It also made the status of the top talents extremely high!
Although a professor was not as good as a grand scholar, he was still a candidate for a grand scholar.
As long as he was willing to be on the right track, he could easily obtain a position in the Datong Party or the Gonghe Party.
He could at least be a member of the policy committee at the local city level, right?
How could such a person be reduced to this place?
Could it be?
Ling Ping'an couldn't help but imagine a scene of the upper echelons fighting in his mind.
But …
Since ancient times... a doctor could not be punished!
Intellectuals valued their dignity the most!
No matter how much they fought, it was impossible for a high-level intellectual who was at least a professor to be pushed to the streets!
So …
Either she was lying!
Or …
This man was …
"Experiencing life!"
This word appeared in Ling Ping'an's mind.
Not all the high-level intellectuals of the empire were on the right track.
Those who liked scientific research would not come out to touch the right track unless they were forced into a corner.
The same logic applied to intellectuals in the fields of art, humanities, and history.
For example, Chen Anning, the most famous grand scholar of the modern Gonghe Party, who wrote "New Confucian Ethics and Capitalism", the masterpiece of the Gonghe Party's theory, was a scientist who studied physics before he became an official.
Legend had it that he was disgusted by the actions of the Datong Party back then.
As soon as he came out of retirement, he took out the banner of 'Libertarianism', integrated the forces of the Gonghe Party, and then defeated the Datong Party in one fell swoop!
So …
Many grand scholars, before they became officials, liked to mingle in the streets and do what they liked.
Scientific research, archaeology …
There was even a grand scholar who was said to be the author of a certain comic.
Many people claimed with certainty that every time the grand scholar decided to retire, that comic would start to be serialized.
When he came out of retirement, that comic would announce that it would stop publication.
It was impossible not to suspect it!
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an thought in his heart, "Is he a professor who likes to study traditional culture and is addicted to Jiuge?"
If that was the case, it wouldn't be strange.
Jiuge was a masterpiece of classical literature!
Qu Zi's immortal work!
It wasn't strange that high-level intellectuals liked to study it.
The strange thing was that they studied it!
