I studied abroad in modern times

Chapter 362: Who preaches it? Interaction

At the foot of Hongshan Mountain, a truck was honking its horn. In the traffic, a middle-aged driver couldn't bear his annoyance. He opened the door, walked out of the cockpit, and looked forward - there were at least a hundred vehicles blocked in front, and the traffic flow started from the foot of the mountain. Extended to the mountainside.

He looked back again, and saw one car after another coming behind him, carrying the smell of gasoline and smoke, like a snake playing with each other, one by one lining the back of the car in front.

He shook his head, walked to the side of a car behind, and shouted: "Brother, is there a fire?"

A fat man jumped out of the car behind. He was very enthusiastic and even gave him a cigarette.

The two of them were smoking cigarettes and chatting while looking at the bustling Hongshan Mountain.

"What time is it?"

"I must have made ten trips in three days. This work is urgent!"

"It's urgent. It's said that more than a dozen construction sites are starting at the same time, and they need a lot of things. People stop parking and don't let people in. They don't know what they're going to build."

"You don't care. Is the money enough?"

The fat man lowered his voice and whispered: "You are not a local, are you?"

"no…"

"Then you haven't heard of it. Hongshan has a lot of rumors in recent years."

"What rumors?"

"Hongshan, there are fairies!"

“…”

"Don't believe it, someone has seen a female fairy who is too beautiful to be human, flying in the mountains when no one is around, especially at night!" The fat man swore.

The middle-aged man took a deep drag on the cigarette... It was a good cigarette. Although this guy was a little crazy, he was quite generous.

…

Fairy Tang obediently crossed her legs and sat on the stool next to the dining table, looking at Zheng Fa with big eyes blinking on her small face.

Old Man Bai and others gathered around her, talking to each other.

The new group of people are not in the nursing home now - this time Hongshan is expanding its enrollment, it is not just about recruiting people, it is also about establishing laboratories, research institutions, and even opening up new spiritual fields.

These people either go down the mountain to make arrangements for their families and previous jobs.

Or go to the construction site to guide the construction.

The noise from the outside world could not reach the nursing home. Everyone in the nursing home did not care about it because Tang Lingwu was preparing to build the foundation.

It has been over three to four years since she started practicing, which is relatively slow considering her single spiritual root qualification.

The problem is not with her, but with the environment:

In his early years, Zheng Fa's cultivation was limited and Hongshan's spiritual energy was insufficient. This was a major reason.

On the other hand, it was also due to the lack of various spiritual materials, especially elixirs. For example, Tang Lingwu did not have the Yuan Ning Dan and was unable to practice the "Food Dao Foundation Building Method".

Looking at it this way, Tang Lingwu is extremely fast - not only her qualifications are great, but her temperament is also first-rate. Her wealthy background and simple personality make her extremely focused and her brain is very good. Even in the Xuanwei world, she can He is considered an extremely outstanding genius.

In comparison, Old Man Bai has barely reached the seventh level of Qi training, while Teacher Tian and the two have even shallower cultivation.

Zheng Fa was a little worried:

Putting aside herself, Tang Lingwu was the first modern native to build the foundation, and can be said to be the forerunner of the immortal way in this world.

Although he felt that ninety-nine percent of the time there would be no problem.

But unfortunately, he always thinks about some one-percent situations.

Old Man Bai and Teacher Tian also crowded aside, looking at Tang Lingwu with concern on her face.

In the past few years, their feelings towards Zheng Fa and others may be complicated, but towards Tang Lingwu, they treat her as their own children, so their worries are naturally heightened.

"How about getting ready again?"

Old Man Bai murmured in a low voice.

"I'm ready." Tang Lingwu shook her head and said with a smile, "I also feel it's time."

Zheng Fa nodded. According to the experience of monks in the Xuanwei world, foundation building should not be too hasty, but it should not be too slow. If it is too slow, you will easily lose courage.

Going with your gut is sometimes the best option.

Old Man Bai and the other two saw Zheng Fa nodding and said nothing more. Only Old Man Bai touched his chest and sighed: "My mood is exactly the same as when my daughter took the college entrance examination."

What this said... is quite appropriate.

In other words, the success of foundation building can determine a person's life more than the college entrance examination...especially for someone like Tang Lingwu who does not need the college entrance examination...

There may be another reason for the tension in the hearts of the two old men:

Tang Lingwu's success or failure is related to their own practice in the future.

As it relates to themselves, they naturally worry more about gains and losses.

Tang Lingwu bared her teeth and smiled, looking more relaxed than them, but her eyes were still on Zheng Fa.

Old Man Bai wanted to say something else, but Teacher Tian beside him tugged on his sleeve.

"Why are you pulling on me?"

"I have something to do with you!"

"What can't be said here?"

“…”

Teacher Tian stopped talking and forcefully pulled Old Man Bai out all the way.

Tang Mudao was smart and followed the two of them and ran out of the restaurant.

Only Tang Lingwu and Zheng Fa were left in the room.

"I'm a little scared..."

Tang Lingwu, who had just laughed heartlessly, suddenly said weakly.

Zheng Fa said nothing, but stretched out his hand and touched Tang Lingwu's head.

"I've memorized the exercises very well," Tang Lingwu squinted her eyes and said without stopping, "I've also memorized the ones you taught..."

Zheng Fa was worried, and of course he would not let Tang Lingwu explore on her own. He moved all the records of the corresponding exercises and foundation building in the sect, took them apart bit by bit, analyzed them for Tang Lingwu, and even deduced possible problems that might occur.

To put it simply, I have taken several rounds of mock tests.

"I'm actually a little afraid. If I fail, will the newcomers doubt you..."

Zheng Fa shook his head and felt that Tang Lingwu was still a little girl who was thinking too much - he didn't care whether she had any doubts or not, and he didn't ask for those people.

"Don't think too much, just build the foundation."

Looking at Tang Lingwu, whose brows were slightly furrowed, Zheng Fa comforted her.

Tang Lingwu nodded slowly and stopped talking.

Silence fell in the room.

"Before, Professor Bai said that his mood was the same as taking an exam..."

Tang Lingwu suddenly spoke again.

"Um?"

"I gave you a test, but I haven't passed the college entrance examination." Tang Lingwu pouted, "What a loss."

Zheng Fa suddenly remembered Tang Lingwu's cheongsam.

Does she still want to comfort her? Or encourage her?

What to do?

Wearing a cheongsam?

Is that too much?

A warm fragrance hit his face. As soon as he turned his head, Zheng Fa saw Tang Lingwu standing in front of him with her arms spread out and her face raised.

Seeing him turn around, Tang Lingwu said seriously:

"Encourage!"

Zheng Fa stood up and gently held Tang Lingwu in his arms.

After a long time, the two separated.

Tang Lingwu shook her head, with a cocky smile on her face, looking very proud:

"I lied to you."

"Um?"

"Actually, I'm not afraid~"

Zheng Fa was speechless. Are you trying to hug me?

How about you cheat more?

This girl is not good at deception, but she is self-taught in charm skills...

…

A few days later, Cheng Yun took Professor Wang and others back to the nursing home. From now on, the main building of the nursing home will be the dormitory of these people.

Along the way, Cheng Yun was still boasting: "I know this nursing home very well! Boss, I will protect you from now on!"

Professor Wang's face turned dark when he saw how arrogant he was.

The backyard is still Zheng Fa's private land.

Zheng Fa and the others were in the backyard these days, guarding the door of Tang Lingwu's room in case something happened.

"Why is it so quiet?"

When Professor Wang saw that there was no sound at all in the nursing home, he couldn't help but ask Cheng Yun in a low voice.

"I heard that Chairman Tang is going to build a foundation, and Dean Zheng hasn't been out for the past two days."

"No one dared to speak out."

Professor Wang nodded slightly and looked towards the backyard with some inexplicable expectations in his heart.

In the backyard, Zheng Fa sat cross-legged in front of Tang Lingwu's room, meditating with his eyes closed.

Old Man Bai and the other three were also there, looking into the room from time to time, but they couldn't speak.

Zheng Fa suddenly opened his eyes and didn't say a word, just laughed.

Done!

Old Man Bai and others were ecstatic.

"Look outside!"

Outside, the small building in the east cliff is shrouded in a layer of five-color brilliance, and the aura turns into a breeze, gently stroking the grass and trees in the courtyard.

The old trees sprouted green buds, birds chirped in the forest, and even the fish at the bottom of the pond were splashing.

Professor Wang watched this scene from the main building. Even though he had been mentally prepared, he was stunned at this moment.

Everyone was in a daze when they saw a beautiful figure of the small building stepping out of thin air.

The five-colored small building was behind her, and the breeze was blowing her dress. Under the pressure of the spiritual energy, Professor Wang and others felt some pressure in their hearts, and they actually felt a sense of admiration for this young girl.

Tang Lingwu glanced at them briefly, her eyes a little dazed and indifferent.

But at this time, no one would be offended.

They have an inexplicable feeling that this kind of indifference can destroy them with just a wave of the other party's hand.

It can be said that this is a difference in life levels.

But the next moment, Tang Lingwu landed on the ground and humbly lowered her head towards a figure walking out of the small building, as if to salute.

Zheng Fa frowned slightly, raised his hand, and helped Tang Lingwu up from the distance, his expression not quite understanding.

“The grace of preaching cannot be ignored.”

Zheng Fa looked at the bright eyes in the main building behind her.

I knew in my heart that most of this sentence was meant for them. Zheng Fa shook his head, reached out and patted her head: "Be careful!"

Tang Lingwu does have a lot of tricks, but they are very useful:

She deliberately made a live advertisement.

The next night, Zheng Fa felt the enthusiasm of these new scholars.

It's not that there wasn't much enthusiasm before, but people who are engaged in science believe that seeing is believing. Zheng Fa, the simple golden elixir, has other uses, and his character will not be rushed to show it to them, so they still Not seen.

Seeing Tang Lingwu build the foundation inspired them a lot.

The largest conference room in the main building of the nursing home is now arranged like an auditorium.

In the auditorium, Zheng Fa was giving these scholars an enlightenment class on the path to immortality—since they had recruited these people, they naturally wanted to teach them how to cultivate immortality.

Zheng Fa sat on a futon and started talking about the rune system bit by bit.

Tang Lingwu sat in the first row with Old Man Bai and the others.

The rest of the people were sitting behind them.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

Cheng Yun sat next to Professor Wang. At first, he was still looking at the big cow nearby:

Many people have gray hair.

Some of them he had read in textbooks when he was in college.

There are even a few people who, with just one sentence, can change the resource allocation of a subject and the research direction of the country.

In the past, when I saw them, they were always on the podium, not in the audience.

But at this moment, these people were all holding notebooks or electronic devices, listening carefully to the lectures of the young Zheng Fa.

It seems to be the other way around.

Seeing that he was distracted, Professor Wang suddenly nudged him with his elbow.

"boss?"

"Why are you in a daze? Remember it carefully!" Professor Wang whispered.

“…”

"Seize the opportunity!"

Cheng Yun was stunned and looked forward. Three seats in front of him, an old man who had been in the news for a long time was scratching his head. He looked at Zheng Fa seriously and full of curiosity. He seemed to understand every word. Don't want to miss it.

Because some scholars are old and have just started practicing, and have not even entered Taoist martial arts, their bodies cannot bear it.

So Zheng Fa only preached for about two hours a night.

Early the next morning, Cheng Yun opened the door and saw Professor Wang next door also rubbing his eyes and walking out, seemingly ready to have breakfast.

"Professor? Are you awake too?"

"Awake?" Professor Wang looked at him with an incomprehensible look, "Who is asleep?"

“…”

Cheng Yun felt his liver tremble.

"You didn't sleep!" He asked with wide eyes, "What did you do at night?"

"Practice martial arts, review the content of Dean Zheng's sermons, and when I'm tired, I find some Taoist classics and material science textbooks on the Internet to change my mind..."

Professor Wang said casually as he walked.

"...Do you want to curl up like this..."

"Let me ask you, why doesn't Dean Zheng look for others, only us?"

"...In order to research as quickly as possible?"

"So..." Professor Wang patted the student on the shoulder and said with a smile, "What if we don't hurry up?"

Cheng Yun stopped talking.

"I told you before about how I stayed up late in the laboratory when I was young, but you still don't believe it..."

“…”

Professor Wang pointed at the listless scholars in the restaurant, turned to look at Cheng Yun, and said with a smile:

"roll?"

"Be among the first batch of people to learn to cultivate immortality."

"If you can read some books and do some research, you can become disease-free, disaster-free and even immortal..." Professor Wang chuckled softly, "This opportunity is so rare, and it is so suitable for us."

Cheng Yun looked at the red eyes of the group of people and was speechless for a long time.

"Which one of the people here was not rolled out in the laboratory in the mountains of books and questions?" Professor Wang chuckled again and asked, "Otherwise, you think Zheng Fa values ​​​​those of us who can't lift our hands or shoulders. People what?”

"What's the point of spending more time?"

Cheng Yun nodded blankly. His confidence as an elderly person in a nursing home suddenly disappeared, and instead he felt a sense of urgency.

He looked at Professor Wang and felt that after so many years, he was being taught another lesson by his teacher.

…

Zheng Falian taught basic knowledge for a week, and then held a seminar in the auditorium.

The question discussed in the seminar was naturally how to perfect the "Tianhe Sword Way" or the "Nine Turns of the Golden Pill Method".

Zheng Faxian distributed the collected information and experimental data to everyone in the audience.

This time the nursing home expanded its enrollment, probably recruiting about a hundred new people from various disciplines -

Physical chemistry, materials science, biology, even agriculture, and mathematics are all subjects related to the cultivation of immortality.

These people also participated in the seminar this time.

But what Zheng Fa cares about most is actually scholars with a background in physics or chemical materials science.

After all, they seem to have more to do with the project.

While everyone in the audience was flipping through the information, Zheng Fa was talking about the principles or progress of the "Golden Elixir Project". After he finished speaking, everyone in the audience roughly understood the current problem and began to whisper.

After these people had basically finished their discussion, Zheng Facai added: "Everyone can discuss in groups or come up with ideas independently. What I hope is that everyone can study this issue from various angles."

This is also helpless.

Nowadays, the research on "Tianhe Sword Way" has almost reached a bottleneck. Zheng Fa and others don't even know what the problem is.

In convening this seminar, he actually wanted to use the thinking of these scholars in different disciplines to explore various possible ideas.

This is why Zheng Fal even invited scholars in biology and mathematics.

“During the seminar, everyone can submit papers and review each other’s papers.”

"Contributions to this topic can be counted into nursing home points, which can be exchanged for spiritual materials and exercises in the future."

After Zheng Fa finished speaking, the discussion in the audience became a little more lively.

In order to allow these scholars to perfect their ideas, Zheng Fa set the duration of the seminar to half a month.

But the next day, a leading nuclear engineering scholar proposed a hypothesis of his own - the fusion reaction hypothesis.

"Judging from this experimental data, the experimenter has been obsessed with the third step, that is, how to combine the spiritual energy sub-talisman with the particles, but in fact, the normal process of condensing the golden elixir is divided into three steps, so I think that the second step The first sub-talisman may be combined with the first sub-talisman during fusion or even fission.”

Zheng Fa listened in the audience and felt that it made sense.

But subsequent discussions gave him more inspiration:

Some people think that there is a problem with the structure of the alchemy cauldron. For example, the alchemy cauldron of the Shenxiao Golden Pill is in line with the Shenxiao Golden Pill, but when it comes to producing a second five-element talisman, it is naturally different.

From a chemical perspective, it may require certain catalysts and even experimental environments.

From a physics point of view, some people have asked whether there is not enough energy...

In half a month, these people submitted about eighty papers, among which there were fifteen or six main hypotheses.

From Zheng Fa's perspective, seven or eight of them are very likely.

"From a fundamental analysis, condensing the second sub-talisman, if you look at it from the perspective of a chemical reaction..."

"Actually, there are three possible things that can go wrong:"

Tang Lingwu concluded from the side: "First, raw materials, second, environment, and third, technology."

Zheng Fa nodded.

The raw materials are the most troublesome. For example, the "Food Dao Foundation Building Method" requires Condensation Pill. If the same is true for Tianhe Sword Dao, then if they don't understand the original method of Lord Tianhe, there is a high probability that they will not be able to learn this thing - especially if they are If there is something like a catalyst, it's basically over.

The environment is easier to say. The environment of the Golden Elixir Project is nothing more than the structure of the elixir cauldron, the concentration of spiritual energy, temperature and pressure.

This is quite traceable.

As for craftsmanship, Zheng Fa and the others are best at it.

The Golden elixir project has split the matter of elixir formation into an assembly line, and its understanding of elixir formation techniques is almost unparalleled.

This aspect of the problem is relatively simple for them.

At this time, Professor Wang who was beside Cheng Yun hurriedly came with Cheng Yun and handed him a newly released paper. Zheng Fa suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them: "Interaction?"

"Yes, we are thinking that if the aura sub-talisman is regarded as a kind of particle, or a kind of substance, then there must be an attraction between them when they are combined together. Fundamentally speaking, this is not the same thing as physics. kind of interaction?"

"Electrons rely on photon transmission to interact with each other, so how do auras communicate with each other?"

Zheng Fa suddenly realized: "Shenhun!"

From the moment I first started learning runes, this was obvious—the mutual attraction between aura runes was limited to the scope of the soul. In other words, only within the scope of the same soul would the runes be attracted to each other. !

Thinking about it conversely, when Zheng Fa condensed the talisman base in his body, his spiritual power already had his own soul...

It’s just that Zheng Fa always thought it was the effect of the Ning Yuan Dan. Now that he thinks about it, if the Ning Yuan Dan is so useful, why does everyone’s Five Elements Ring differ?

If you use the function of the soul to explain it, everything makes sense.

"So, the soul..." Tang Mudao frowned, "is the medium through which spiritual energy works?"

Zheng Fa was startled and suddenly realized that this theory actually pointed to the root of magic!

In other words, this thing explains one thing: why monks need to cultivate the soul! Why can only monks cast spells!

Fundamentally speaking, it solved a problem for Zheng Fa: where is the position of people in magic.

"It's hard to say yet, it needs to be verified." Zheng Fa shook his head. Now the theory itself can explain some problems, but it can still only be regarded as a hypothesis.

Some phenomena still need to be verified in the future.

He glanced at Professor Wang and was filled with admiration. He stood up and said to Professor Wang: "No matter what, this theory is very insightful...Professor Wang, thank you for your hard work!"

"Cheng Yun, you are familiar with nursing homes. If Professor Wang has any problems, you can solve them. If you can't solve them, just tell me directly."

Seeing how polite he was, Professor Wang blinked his eyes and smiled proudly at Cheng Yun. The meaning in his eyes was self-explanatory -

Who is covering whom? Even if your teacher turns into ashes, he is still your teacher!

…

In the Nine Mountains Realm, Zheng Fa gently opened his eyes and took out the Jade Certificate of Good Fortune.

In the Jade Certificate of Creation, there are more than 80 seminar papers, the most important of which is Professor Wang's paper on the interaction of spiritual energy.

But there is no preset position on this matter. On the contrary, there is more than one reason for the failure of the experiment. Zheng Fa has not yet figured out whether it is even due to the problem of the soul.

He thought for a while and sent these more than 80 papers to Mrs. Xuanhua and others in a private message on the forum.

…

On the experimental island, Yan Wushuang watched Mrs. Xuanhua rubbing the papers one by one with a dull look on her face.

"This...is all Zheng Fa's idea?"

"Just get used to it."

"Did he think it alone?"

"What else?" Mrs. Xuanhua said with a smile, "I just gave him the data yesterday."

Yan Wushuang read the two papers that had just been printed and covered his head with his hands.

This thing made his brain hurt just looking at it.

What kind of brain does Zheng Fa have?
