Enter the Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 57: Education through entertainment [V]

Jiao is one of the quieter ones among the newer monster clan. After Ao Liu almost died at Wang Qi's mouth, she at least maintained the most superficial respect for Wang Qi. When she sat in front of Wang Qi, she also expressed just the right amount of restraint.

At this time, it was getting late, and the autumn evening wind was somewhat chilly. The monk will not get sick from the cold, but it will always be more comfortable to stay in a warm place and eat something warm. Wang Qi ordered a serving of sencha for three people and some light refreshments. A serving of sencha comes with a small red clay stove and a clay pot, while the tea cakes are put aside for guests to put in themselves. Just a few minutes after serving the tea, the water is about to boil. Wang Qi waved his hand gently, used his magic power to pick up a pinch of salt, then gently broke open the tea cake and put it in.

Jiao asked: "Mr. Wang, you just said that my Taoist heart problem is very serious..."

"No, it's not that your Dao Heart problem is serious. Your requirements for Dao Heart are different from ours, and I'm not qualified to judge this issue." Wang Qi said: "It's just that you are a smart person. A smart person Always think a few more steps than the average person.”

Jiao behaved very shyly: "I am a tree, just a wooden head. I can't afford to be so ridiculously praised by my husband."

"Tsk, you know whether you deserve it or not." Wang Qi said: "Anyway, among my many students, you are the only one who knows that we should go to the Collection Room [Museum] to understand the historical and cultural background of this place. In other words, Only you thought about how to look at the human race."

Xiao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He has been wandering the streets.

Jiao smiled and said, "Isn't this bad?"

"If you are talking about your visit to the treasure room, then of course it is good. If you are talking about 'smart people'... Of course, there is nothing wrong with 'smart'. However, if you don't have great wisdom, To control this kind of cleverness, smart people are often forced to death by themselves. Do you know the Burning Heaven Technique?"

"The Three Burning Heaven Techniques and the Cold and Heat Yuan Dao are said to be the core part of the human race's great path. Of course I know that." Jiao smiled.

"Well, then I don't bother to introduce it with more words." Wang Qi said: "I once met a 'smart man' who thought a few more steps when he was learning the entropy method in the Burning Heaven Method, and felt that 'the universe It is an isolated system, and the entropy will inevitably increase." Then he thought, "The universe must have a lifespan, and we in the universe must not live forever." This idea was guided by a thoughtful person, and it became "Since we can't." "If you want to live forever, what's the use of me cultivating immortality?" In the end, it turned into "cultivating immortality is just a big joke, look at me destroying him."

Xie said: "This is... very sad."

"Who says it's not the case? I wasn't that strong back then, and I almost died in the hands of this smart man. Fortunately, in the end I was powerful enough to kill all the people on the stage and the mastermind behind this incident...probably."

——As far as I know, the Fentian Mansion disciple whose name I forgot was not the handiwork of the Holy Emperor, but came from Hong Yuan... That guy should be dead, right? I don’t know if there is still a chance to turn around...

When Wang Qi said this, such thoughts flashed through his mind. He paused and said, "Smart people may think too much if they think a little more."

Jiao lowered his head: "Sir, what you've taught me is... a wooden head like mine can easily lead to a dead end."

"A few days ago, I said, 'When bones are buried in the soil, they can absorb many minerals, cultivate spiritual energy, and give birth to stones that are harder than bones.' You said, 'Those without bones will break into pieces at a touch. Slag? 'Remember?"

Jiao nodded: "Yeah."

"Although this sentence is a joke, it somewhat shows the difference between you and other members of your race." Wang Qi said: "Are you desperate?"

Jiao Weiwei was a little troubled: "What you said is too direct."

"Then let's put it another way. What do you think of the updated demon clan in your impression?"

Similar to Aoliu, Jiao also became a demon at the end of the demon clan update. The birth of their consciousness and the growth of their cultivation are accompanied by the sunset of the demon clan.

Jiao looked at the western sky, looking slightly intoxicated: "You probably can't understand, sir. You humans only occupy the earth now, but you don't really... truly own it. You haven't mastered this part of the world yet. Many powers, mountains and rivers are not subject to your will... To put it simply, you are very primitive, but we are different. Thrones are spread all over the earth, and there are many laws under every inch of the land to protect the glory of our civilization... Really. , the heaven and earth are ours, the mountains are ours, the rivers and seas are ours... You will really feel this way when you stay on the renewed earth."

"At that time, we seemed to have everything in our sights. And every one of our tribesmen worked together to achieve a goal... How glorious that was."

Wang Qi wanted to point to the looming stars in the sky and ask if they were "within sight", but he resisted. He understands this desire to show off. He took out the boiling tea soup from the clay pot and put it aside.

Jiao is indeed not trying to show off. The light of the setting sun was reflected in her eyes, and she continued: "However, such brilliance is only the light of the setting sun. We are no longer able. The power we engraved on the earth back then was enough to kill most of the unfriendly immortals, but We can't stop our own decline. We don't know why... we don't know why."

"Then, the Holy Clan told us that we couldn't do it anymore. We need to be frozen like the Shixin Demon Clan and wait for those who come after us..."

There was a sense of sadness in Jiao's smile: "I know, we lost, and we don't even know how we lost. How valuable is our clan like this? We really can't win at the first touch. Broken plant fossils?”

At this moment, the tea soup started boiling.

Wang Qi poured the second boiled tea soup into the teapot again to stop the boiling and nourish the flowers. He raised the pottery pot, poured the tea into the cups, and at the same time mouthed at the stove: "Look, what is burning here?"

"Fossils of vegetation..." Jiao smiled: "My tribe doesn't use them very much..."

Updating the demon clan is at least the spirit opening stage, and does not require open fire cooking or forging. Sometimes, some well-trained monsters will organize the little monsters who have just awakened to face open fires to fight against their natural fear of fire, but this does not require coal.

"Even fossilized plants and trees buried in the soil are still very useful."

"Sir, you are joking. This kind of temperature can only be used by mortals. For monks, it is of no great use except to add a little fun."

Wang Qi shook his head sadly. After all, this is not an aura-free environment like the earth and universe, and civilization does not necessarily need fuel to develop industry. Otherwise, he can really let these monsters see what "the lifeblood of industrial civilization" is.

He could only shake his head: "That's wrong, Mr. Jiao. It can make me feel 'interesting'. Isn't that the greatest use?"

Jiao was stunned: "This... plaything..."

"Tsk, why don't you understand." Wang Qi shook his head: "I am the most advanced person in the field of arithmetic in the Immortal League, and the technology I develop is closely related to the lifeblood of the human race. If I am in a happy mood, the possibility of inspiration pops up in my mind It’s much bigger. How valuable is the thing that comes out of my head?”

"This..." Jiao and Xie looked at each other.

These words...this words...although it is indeed difficult to refute. But - to be able to say it with a calm expression, how shameless is this?

"Things you think are useless may not be useless." Wang Qi said: "This piece of coal is indeed insignificant. But for many years, our human race has relied on it to survive the severe winter. And among those who have relied on it to survive the severe winter, , maybe there are powerful ancestors of today’s human race.”

"Our new demon race is so powerful that we will fall into inexplicable obstacles and be unable to extricate ourselves. But what about you humans? Now that we have fallen in front of inexplicable obstacles, do we still have a future? If our future is already charcoal..."

"Then those who sit by the fire will win the future." Wang Qi sipped his tea.

"What does the future of the people at the fireside have to do with us?" Jiao smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm not... questioning the Dragon King's decision, but I don't understand that we today... today Of us…”

——As an old antique, what is the meaning of its existence?

"Let me tell you a story about 'energy'." Wang Qi said: "When the universe was born, there was mass. How mass was generated, no one knows. Later, matter with mass gathered under the action of gravity Together, they collapse under high temperature and pressure, fusion occurs, and the energy is transmitted by the radiation of light to a world called China, and is solidified by vegetation with elements such as carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and then the vegetation is buried by the earth. The stored power of the sun also changes underground until it is burned by us, and the sunlight that was buried millions or even tens of millions of years ago reappears - I am not a monk in Shanhe City, and I don't know that we are burning it now. Whether the coal is from the era of the new demon clan or the era of the updated demon clan, but..."

"Wait a minute, sir." Jiao interrupted: "This should be... modern, this is charcoal."

The classic jokes of "Eastern Zhou", "Western Zhou" and "Last Week" flashed through Wang Qi's mind. He coughed and said: "In short, we lit the fire and released the 'energy' injected by the sun many years ago."

"So what does the process from grass to coal to fire mean to sunlight?"

Xiao said: "I think it is meaningless... Sunshine has no purpose. It just exists."

Wang Qi said: "It just changed its form, from light energy to biological energy and finally to physical energy. Energy is still energy."

"When you hear this, aren't you a little touched in your heart, Mr. Jiao?" (To be continued ~^~)
