Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 136 Suffocating Da Yan Education!
"Yes! When saltpeter is dissolved in water, it absorbs a lot of heat, which can cool the water down to ice. So today, the teacher will assign you a homework. When you get home, you can show your parents or other relatives how to turn water into ice, okay?"

"Okay!" the primary school students responded in unison.

The chemistry teacher smiled and said, "Okay, then it's almost time, we should go back to the classroom, everyone line up and go."

He took the children back to the classroom.

On the playground, only Cheng Yaojin was left, disheveled in the wind.

Gulp...
He swallowed hard.

Then he turned his head stiffly and looked at the group of children and the chemistry teacher.

In Dayan’s primary school, we learn these things?
This is just elementary school, what about middle school? High school? College?
If you used to look down on Dayan for being in a wild land and being a wild person, how can you still have such thoughts now?
Cheng Yaojin was so shocked that he was completely speechless.

For a moment, the surroundings were so quiet that Cheng Yaojin seemed to be able to only hear his own breathing and heartbeat.

After the teacher's lesson, combined with what I saw and heard on the road.

It seems...I am really illiterate.

Cheng Yaojin took a step forward and walked towards those messy classes.

Before, he felt that how could he study in such a messy class?

After all, the Imperial College, Hongwenguan, and various private schools in Chang'an were all dignified and solemn, filled with the sound of reading, and full of profound articles and poems.

but!
Dayan's elementary school directly overturned his cognition.

Cheng Yaojin lay on the window and looked over one by one like a curious baby.

Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, mixed operations? What the hell?

Two balls, big and small, were thrown down from the leaning tower and landed at the same time? How is that possible!

Modern medical bandaging, knowledge of bacteria? What are they?
The multiplication table? Hmm, that's interesting.

Pinyin?

Oh my god! God, he could come up with such a way to get to know each other!

"Three Character Classic"?
This article is good and very suitable for early childhood enlightenment. It is very good. I feel that our own Tang Dynasty also needs it.

Cheng Yaojin hated reading, and it could even be said that he hated words extremely, but today he was so eager to learn that he walked through every classroom.

Sometimes, he was immersed in certain knowledge.

"Huh? This is only the first grade."

"This is... second grade, third grade, fourth grade..."

The corner of Cheng Yaojin's mouth twitched, and the person he had just walked with was the first grade.

The first grade knowledge shocked him so much that he almost thought he was illiterate. What about the senior grades...
Cheng Yaojin didn't dare to think about it, nor could he think about it.

The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I felt.

But there is still a thought that comes to mind and cannot be shaken off.

Could it be that I am really illiterate?
Cheng Yaojin remained silent.

I couldn't help but fall into autism.

"Hey! Uncle, why are you here!"

At this time, a little girl who had just returned from the toilet due to an urgent need to pee during class couldn't help but ask.

She is a fifth-grade student and is at an age where she is curious about everything. She can even spend a long time studying the moving of ants on the roadside.

So I was curious as to why this old man was standing there in a daze in such a huge corridor with no one around.

Cheng Yaojin looked at him and smiled, "Oh, nothing, I'm just taking a walk."

He scratched his head and laughed, his smile was infectious.

The little girl smiled and said, "Uncle, please keep going. I'm going back to class."

The little girl put her hands behind her back and walked briskly, tick-tick, towards the fifth grade class, full of innocence and romance.

Cheng Yaojin fell silent again. When he was this little girl's age, he was... preparing for war, living from hand to mouth, with no food to eat.

But the children here are so innocent...
and also.

The children here... he saw that not only boys could study, but girls could too, and the ratio was one to one. This was completely impossible in the Tang Dynasty!

"Wait, little girl!"

Subconsciously, Cheng Yaojin called out to the little girl.

The little girl put her hands behind her back and tilted her head: "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Cheng Yaojin thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Do you like reading?"

He saw it, saw the little girl returning to class as fast as an arrow.

The little girl shook her head: "I don't like it."

"Why then? Are you eager to go home?"

The rough voice was full of questions.

The little girl raised her head with clear and determined eyes.

"Because I want to study for the rise of Yan Country."

The sunlight shines evenly on the young little girl's face.

She breathed evenly and smiled.

Looking at his expression, he is proud of his country.

Seeing this, the muscles on Cheng Yaojin's face trembled slightly.

What kind of enlightenment is this?

A little girl with such a strong patriotic heart...
Study for the rise of your country, not for fame, fortune or status.

The corners of his mouth trembled as he thought of the group of scholars in the Tang Dynasty who were mainly interested in fame and fortune, and then thought of the little girl in front of him...
I don't know why, but I feel mixed emotions.

"You, your parents, what are their names? I want to meet them."

Cheng Yaojin wanted to see what kind of parents could raise such a child.

He wanted to learn! He wanted to learn more than anyone else, and if he had the chance to return to the Tang Dynasty, he would set an example for those brats in his family!
“They…”

When talking about her parents, the little girl's innocent smile turned lonely: "Mom is dead. She was eaten by Westerners."

"Dad... a few days ago, he joined the war as a soldier of the Self-Defense Force and went to Fengtou Plateau. I was in class at the time and didn't have the chance to see him for the last time. I didn't even see his body. I heard from the surviving Self-Defense Force soldiers that Dad... died without a complete body."

Cheng Yaojin stood there in a daze.

He lowered his head and sighed, "I'm sorry, I, I, Lao Cheng, didn't know..."

turn out to be….
It is not because the little girl has a happy family that she is innocent, but it is this city that allows her to regain her innocence…
The little girl shook her head and was about to speak.

But at this moment, the teacher in the classroom next to them happened to ask the students why they were reading, and those students all stood up.

One, ten, fifty….
They spoke together, their eyes determined.

"Study for the rise of Yan Nation!"

At this moment, the sound seemed to resound throughout the world, shocking Cheng Yaojin so much that he was at a loss.

He once again stared at the group of children who had no doubts. Everyone looked proud and proud. Such children... Such Yan Country...
Why, why are they all willing to die for this emerging country!

Why are even children like this!

This terrifying cohesion and sense of belonging made Cheng Yaojin tremble in his heart.

"Uncle, I really can't stay here any longer, I have to go!"

"Next time we meet, hehe, I'll treat you to a meal!"

The little girl laughed.
