Chapter 18 Quantitative Change Leads to Qualitative Change
"What is this thing?"
Wu Yunxian asked while holding the piece of paper given to him by Master Wen.
This thing is extremely smooth, white and fine, and can also be used for writing.
"The name of this object is paper. It is a treasure that Nuwa, the Empress, told the king in a dream. The king ordered us to make it as soon as possible."
"This thing is extremely fine, smooth and white, and feels light to the touch. If it spreads to the world, it will be a great event. I don't know how much it costs. Is it very expensive?"
Twisting such delicate paper, I felt incredible.
As an immortal, I am really ignorant. This is the first time I have seen such a magical thing, and I have been laughed at for nothing.
"Hey, it's not expensive. It's very cheap. You can make it with some rotten fishing nets and rotten bamboo."
"Brother, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course everything is true, so how could I lie to you? If you are willing, we can go see how to make this paper together another day."
"No, no, no, I will naturally believe what my fellow Taoist says."
Wu Yunxian played with this delicate paper, and became more and more impressed that this exquisite object of ingenuity was actually made of those mediocre things.
This is too amazing.
Could it be that this is why the Emperor ordered me to publish a book and compile teaching materials?
See the essence through phenomena, reuse waste, disassemble the original objects, and then assemble them into what you need.
I can't see through the human emperor Xin more and more.
A mortal body can actually have such horrifying wisdom. Even if he, an immortal, were compared to him, he could only be reduced to dregs in an instant.
"The fonts in this book are neat and neat. Could it be that Taoism and magic were used to organize the layout?"
What Wu Yunxian asked about was the printing technology, printed books, and bound sample books that Bigan was responsible for.
"It's not Taoism or magic, it's printing. This printing is like a seal, but it can cover more words."
Wen Taishi patiently explained the reason for the neatness of the books, Lei Wuyunxian couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Wu Yunxian, as a rare and powerful immortal in the ancient world, boasts that he is rich in knowledge and erudite.
But as soon as he came to Chaoge, his understanding of the world was constantly being refreshed one by one.
This unknown thing made him even more excited, and he secretly made up his mind to assist Di Xin. He wanted to see if Di Xin could come up with something new.
Five days later, in Chaoge City.
"Wonderful, wonderful."
Di Xin held the teaching materials presented by the five gentlemen, grinning from ear to ear with joy.
Wu Yunxian and the Four Saints of Kowloon Island worked hard every day and night, completing the tasks assigned by Emperor Xin very quickly.
Di Xin took a look and found that although the content was a little messy, it was perfect for teaching.
Don’t forget that you also have the super powerful plug-in Daoyun Academy.
The most important task of Haoran Academy is to lay a good foundation for apprentices.
"Bigan listens to orders"
"Use these teaching materials to lay a good foundation for Dachang apprentices."
"I obey the decree."
Di Xin arranged for Bigan to produce these teaching materials on a large scale, so the official opening of the academy is approaching.
When the matter of teaching materials came to an end, Di Xin looked at Wu Yunxian.
"Sir, I wonder if you have any magic weapon that can test people's spiritual roots. I need your help."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have disciples all over the world, and there are many talented people. I would like to ask Your Majesty to explain the reason so that I can find it more conveniently."
Wu Yunxian had already made up his mind to entrust his life to Dashang. This was a huge gamble. He was full of curiosity about Di Xin. He wanted to know what would happen to Di Xin next.
"Gu feels that the idea of cultivating Taoism depends on chance is not suitable for today's big businessmen. Gu has an idea. He hopes to divide the spiritual roots into five elements and practice them separately. He will use magical instruments to test the spiritual roots of his people, and based on the test data, arrange for them.
The most suitable method for practicing is to get twice the result with half the effort, but I don’t have a magic weapon that can detect the spiritual roots of ordinary people.”
"Please continue, Your Majesty." Wu Yunxian seemed to have caught something, but also seemed to have caught nothing, so he had to listen carefully to Di Xin's thoughts.
"Sir, let me give you an example. If there is a person who was born in the year of Fire, Moon, Fire, Sun, Fire, Hour, Fire, and Chen, then it is enough to show that this person is suitable for practicing fire-based exercises, and his spiritual root and life style are extremely masculine, so he can practice fire-based exercises.
It will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Once this person passes through the fire and understands the rules of Taoism, he will be able to evolve and even reverse the Five Elements through the attributes he carries."
The reason why Di Xin said this is because there were quite a lot of similar behaviors in later generations, which can be regarded as a combination of Chinese and Western practices.
In ancient times, if you wanted to make a sedan out of thin air, you had to assemble it one by one. The assembled parts needed to be carefully polished with tools and then assembled step by step before you were done.
The quality of the sedan produced in this way is absolutely great, but it is time-consuming, costly and labor-intensive, and is inconvenient.
In the later industrial era, each component of a sedan had its own division of labor and was mass-produced.
Not only does it greatly relieve the pressure on craftsmen, but it also greatly increases efficiency.
The technical requirements for mass production of a part are not high, and ordinary people can easily do it.
It's just that the first time you get started, it's a bit unfamiliar and the speed is slow. Once you get familiar with it, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
Today's three sects are just like the craftsmen mentioned at the beginning. They spend huge sums of money to find disciples who are talented and have outstanding spiritual power. After more than ten years of careful training, they can complete the task and obtain an excellent Qi practitioner.
Di Xin didn't want to do this. This method was laborious, troublesome, and troublesome just thinking about it. He wanted to use modern methods to mass-produce Qi Practicing Bachelors.
Moreover, quantitative changes will eventually lead to qualitative changes, and outstanding talents will surely stand out.
In this case, the human race's abilities will become stronger instantly.
He wanted to build Dashang's army of Qi practitioners and greatly strengthen Dashang's national, material and financial resources.
When everyone gathers firewood, the flames are high. If the teachings turn against them, grinding them will kill them.
Wu Yunxian listened to Di Xin's words carefully, but his back was already dripping with cold sweat.
This act was so huge that it would not be an exaggeration to say that it subverted the rules and worldview of the prehistoric world.
If it is really implemented as Di Xin said, and if it really succeeds, then every human race will have their own skills and be like the pride of heaven.
"There is no magical weapon for testing spiritual roots that the king mentioned. There is a method, but there is no way to use it in front of many human apprentices."
Wu Yunxian racked his brains, and the methods he came up with to test his spiritual roots were all one-on-one, because one-on-one was the only way for Jie Jiao to find his favorite Qi practitioner, who could be used to carefully train him into a strong person.
Di Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "Teacher, don't worry so much. You don't have to be too precise when testing your spiritual roots. You just need to know which one of the five elements is most suitable. Don't worry too much if there are errors. After you enter Haoran Academy
It’s never too late to screen carefully.”
Wu Yunxian bowed and saluted: "I beg your Majesty to explain the details."
After coming to Chaoge, Wu Yunxian has been questioning his IQ. The things he experienced in Chaoge were too fantasy, and his brain was a bit insufficient.
Even if he attained enlightenment and was as noble as an immortal, he still could not understand what Di Xin did and said.
"Then let me put it in detail, the fire attribute spiritual root belongs to fire, so naturally one has a fiery and straightforward temperament, while the water attribute must have a character that is neither tepid nor hot, which corresponds to water and fire. This can be observed just by looking at the appearance.
Information. As for the inner part, whether it is the flow of blood or the breath emitted, it is also very different."
