Chapter 592 What Li Yi can do is beyond what Li Changsheng can do
Thousands of years after the Chinese Era, mankind finally discovered an alien civilization, but this civilization has been destroyed by the "traitors" who stepped out.
and brought a message.
“Science is dead, what’s wrong with that?”
Di Mian closed the book with both hands and looked at the many scientists surrounding him with a smile on his face.
Scientists, a name that once had a noble meaning, had a very high status in human society, second only to officials and rich people.
In history, they are irreplaceable, and they are celebrities who have made history.
Because they promote the development of human society, humans need them, they need them to research medicines and cure diseases, they need them to develop productivity to feed more people, and they need them to research weapons to kill more people.
But that was a long, long time ago, and now technology is no longer needed, only a few people are still hanging on.
“But didn’t you say that technology will one day defeat spiritual practice?” Someone asked in disbelief.
“We have conducted countless experiments and broken through one difficulty after another. It has been passed down through countless generations to this day. The weapons of science and technology are enough to kill the gods!”
“But heaven and earth have destroyed the laws of physics, all atomic-level technology has been destroyed, and physics no longer exists!”
The white-haired scientist raised his hands in the air, just as the guns of the modern state blasted open the holy city of religion countless centuries ago.
The popes of old also prayed to God in this way.
But God never responded, and would only be gradually worn away or transformed in the development of the times. The violence and bloodiness of primitive religion have faded away, leaving only the spiritual belief that humans and animals are harmless.
The same is true for science.
Di Mian comforted: "Actually, that's not all. At least gravity is still there, gravity is still there, but it starts to follow the rules of heaven and earth, rather than the laws of physics. Most of the laws you are familiar with still exist, just some of your assumptions It’s already very difficult to achieve.”
“As for killing the transformed god.”
He smiled, not disdainfully, but just an unconscious move. Emperor Mian did not dislike these old children.
Those who are able to insist on developing science today are not only ardent believers in science and technology, but also seekers of the truth.
In a blue star with unlimited material abundance, it is not surprising that among more than a billion people there are several thousand people who develop science. They have the conditions to conduct various experiments with matter, and Immortal Palace doesn't care about those resources.
Everything is allowed to exist as long as it does not violate the law.
Even technologies that are backward, unsuitable for social development, or have no future will still receive support.
For Xiangong, this is just a hobby class for children. Some senior officials even think that it is better to comprehensively promote technology. If everyone goes to practice, it will inevitably lead to a further reduction in practice resources, thereby increasing conflicts.
Aura resources are never infinitely abundant.
At the same time, reducing the number of monks is also in line with the general direction of Asgard.
The development of science and technology has not been hindered by any obstacles from beginning to end, and has even received great help from spiritual practice. Just like an older brother supporting his younger brother, for example, all problems in materials science can be solved through training.
Even if it really can’t be solved, then find a powerful person to learn from and promote the development of science and technology.
At that time, monks still needed the productivity of science and technology, and there was also talk that technology was not inferior to spiritual practice.
One of the most powerful arguments is that technology that has been developed for less than a few hundred years can kill the Avatar with nuclear bombs alone. If technology is allowed to develop for thousands of years, even immortals may not be able to stop it.
Such remarks are understandable. People always like to look to the future.
But the facts will not be transferred, distorted, or become true through wrong perceptions.
"Nuclear bombs can kill the gods, and the weapons you have now can indeed kill the Holy King. But you need to be clear about one thing. These arguments are based on the premise that the Holy King will not make any resistance or defense. Let's assume that a nuclear bomb A nuclear bomb explodes within ten steps of the transformed god, enough to destroy his body. But in reality, the transformed **** escapes into the void, and the reaction time of the soul can reach millions of times per second, which is beyond the time for a nuclear explosion to produce destructive power.
“We assume that an object with a mass greater than the sun hits the Holy King’s body at 20% of the speed of light. In reality, it still escapes into the void, or the Holy King can mark two points in space.”
Di Mian raised his hand and tapped it, and two dark dots appeared in the void. Then he picked up a pen and threw it lightly. The extremely fast speed instantly caused strong winds and knocked down the people around him.
They looked up at the pen that circulated endlessly between two black dots.
“You see, everything you have imagined has a solution based on practice.”
Scientists ask: “Are we wrong?”
"No." Di Mian shook his head, and then comforted: "Children, this is not your fault, nor is it the fault of science, but the practice has been developed for hundreds of millions of years. If we talk about time alone, the world of practice has existed longer than this universe. It’s going to be a long time.”
“Physics is dead, but that doesn’t mean science is dead and the world still exists.”
“Never give up fighting, never give up exploring.”
“This world will always be cruel, and struggle is the main theme of the world.”
A thousand years into the Chinese era, the most famous scientist and the greatest scientist in history, Di Mian, published an article "Technology is Dead", which foreshadowed the complete stop of technology that has been developed for thousands of years, and only cultivation is left in the world.
The death of human science seems to be an insignificant grain of sand in society, just like the country, nation, ideology, and even etiquette and morality.
They disappeared earlier than science and more quietly.
Since six hundred years ago, the role of technology in human society has come to an end. This does not mean that technology has been completely abandoned, but that technology can fully meet human daily needs. And those cutting-edge technologies can always find substitutes in practice.
Promoting research on a lower-level alternative to spiritual practice that is completely cost-effective is like taking off your pants and farting. So when the technology tree in people's livelihood is developed to its extreme, and when human beings no longer need to increase their material resources, then technological progress becomes a parody of spiritual practice.
—
The Chinese Era lasted one thousand two hundred years.
Hanshui Li family.
Three hundred years ago, Li's father and Li's mother succeeded in becoming Yuanying, but then they could no longer bear their temper and left home for a trip, and have not returned since.
Two hundred years ago, Zhao Si and Bai Shixuejian achieved breakthroughs in spiritual transformation.
A hundred years ago, under the entrustment of his late uncle, Li Ya, a descendant of the Li family, broke through the Yuanying, and later obtained the elixir and left Hanshui.
Fifty years ago, Li Lili failed to break through and become a god, and then fell into the five declines of heaven and human beings.
Li Lili is the only one in the family who is worried about her life expectancy.
The west wing is the residence of Li Lili, Zhu Xue and Feng Wa.
At the beginning of Rabbit's design, the residence was divided into west and east wings. The east side was for Li Yi and them, and the west side was for other people, including family members, children, and guests who did not need it.
Now that Li's father and Li's mother have moved out, Bai Shi has moved in with Li Yi. Originally, Zhao Si also lived here for hundreds of years, and later he built a villa next door and moved out. After all, he and Li Yiqing were brothers, but they had families, so it was somewhat inappropriate to live together.
Li Lili and Zhu Xue do not need to avoid taboos.
Feng Wa is a shameless person.
Zhao Si walked in from the next door in a familiar manner. This time he did not go straight to Li Yi's residence, but came to the west room. Passing by the antique corridor, he could smell the fragrance of peonies in the square landscape and see the gentle atmosphere of the courtyard, which was not seen in the women's residence. People know it.
The artistic conception is the pinnacle.
He has never known the Taiyin Fairy's construction skills until now. Only after he moved in did he realize what ingenious craftsmanship is and how he can masterly control residences and palaces.
Sometimes he would imagine how beautiful the White Jade Palace in the spiritual world was.
When he came outside the house, Zhao Si cupped his hands and said, "Zhao Si wants to see you."
A moment later, an old voice came from inside the house.
“Why are you so reserved, Fourth Brother? It’s not ancient, it’s not modern, it’s like learning from the ancients in our time.”
"Times are changing, and we can't stay still. How long has it been since you went out for a walk?" Zhao Si asked.
“Now is the retro era. Most people no longer maintain a high-tech life. Some of them have returned to the ancient people recognized by people of our time and returned to the agricultural society.”
Li Lili guessed: "For practice?"
Zhao Si nodded and said: "Yes, whether you practice or not does not depend on material conditions, but it is not a good thing for a mortal to enjoy it too much at the beginning of his practice. Brother Yi said that for a mortal to practice, he must first struggle with his mind, strain his muscles and bones, and starve himself. The skin of the body is empty of its body.”
Today's society has gone from the original indulgence to the other extreme, destroying people for the sake of natural justice.
There are multiple reasons for this. Some people say that the defection awakened the society. Others say that more and more people are exposed to spiritual practice, or it is the widespread popularity of artificial spiritual roots.
There are many reasons. The final analysis is that the true golden age of spiritual practice has arrived, the spiritual energy has completely recovered, and the concentration of spiritual energy in any place is comparable to that of a spiritual vein in the past.
Reiki has become something that can be seen everywhere.
Zhao Si asked Li Yi why spiritual practice would make society conservative.
“Pleasure is natural, and it is difficult for people to resist the mainstream, but everyone yearns for immortality. Cultivation does not necessarily require suffering, but suffering can definitely temper your mind. Otherwise, why do you think I didn't just give my parents a pill to break through the Nascent Soul, but let them practice slowly? ’
Monks’ hearts are stronger than things, but mortals cannot escape from physical desires. Only a very small number of geniuses can achieve a pure mind and a few desires as soon as they begin to practice.
So there is a certain reason for the sect to retain the original inheritance method.
"You are enough now, it is enough." Zhao Si said, "Go to Brother Yi, there is no need to hold on."
…”
This girl is just stubborn and wants to break through on her own ability. But those who do not take pills to break the mirror are all geniuses among geniuses, or those who have great enlightenment.
Li Lili is obviously not included in this list. Zhao Si found Li Yi basking in the sun. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw him holding a rabbit and "flirting".
Sister-in-law clung to Brother Yi one-sidedly, making all kinds of provocative body movements, like a reincarnated fox. Zhao Si was already used to this, and silently turned his gaze away, not to look at anything inappropriate.
This is his eldest brother’s daily life.
The wife and children are on the hot bed, enjoying the service of four peerless beauties in turn. Just one of them is a blessing that others cannot achieve in eight lifetimes.
It is the most common white stone, which also transforms into gods and cultivates the spirit, accompanying it with pure spirits. For the other three, they are ordinary, but in society they are also powerful.
Zhao Si knew that Bai Shi was submissive here, but his own cultivation level came from his own practice step by step, and his strength was not weak.
When the rabbit left Li Yi, he raised his head again. Li Yi said with the same smile as before: "Xiaosi, your cultivation has improved again. It seems that the Holy King has hope. The choice made back then will obviously benefit you for life. "
Zhao Si gave up cultivation and retreated into the mortal world again. The disadvantage was that he missed the best time to practice, but the advantage was that he could achieve great success in refining his mind.
“That guy from Lao Lu is starting to attack the Holy King.” Zhao Si said mockingly to himself.
Some time ago, with the help of the connections between the Immortal Palace and many human forces in the outside world, Lu Haochu, who had had no information for nearly seven hundred years, sent back a letter.
He successfully obtained a ray of phaseless energy and began to attack the Holy King.
“There are different ways, so there is no need to compare.”
Li Yi shook his head, and then asked as if he had expected it: "Are you doing it because of Lily?"
“You’re not going to intervene?”
“There is still a chance, don’t be in a hurry.”
“But Lily only has fifty years left to live.”
Zhao Si looked slightly anxious. Li Lili was actually more familiar with him than Bai Shi. After all, he was a follower behind the two of them back then. When going to catch fish, Li Lili would be the one dragging the plastic bucket behind.
Zhao Si also regards her as a younger sister, and their relationship has gradually recovered in recent years.
Li Yi was still calm and happy, he just glanced in the direction of the west room and said: "I respect Lily's choice."
In the year 1249 of the Han Dynasty, the west house was lifeless and the peonies in the courtyard had withered.
Li Yi quietly walked into the courtyard and opened the door. The thin figure on the bed curled up slightly and covered himself tightly with the quilt.
He came to the bed and sat down, gently pulled open the quilt, and his snow-white silver hair was exposed. Only from the thin back, the age and appearance of the person on the bed could be inferred.
An old woman.
Li Lili buried her head deeper and said in a hoarse and old voice: "Brother, don't look at it, it's very ugly."
Li Yi couldn't help but smile and said softly: "If you are the eldest brother who thinks your sister is ugly, get up and let me see."
After saying that, he gently opened the quilt and helped Li Lili get up from the bed.
The former graceful and beautiful beauty who liked to wear long goose-yellow dresses has turned into a wrinkled old woman.
Li Yi raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. His fingertips traced across the rough skin, like a drop of water falling. The wrinkles disappeared and skin as white as snow appeared.
It is like the dry and cracked earth that has received long-lost moisture.
Li Yi gently picked up Li Lili and placed him in front of the dressing table. The gentle woman was reflected in the simple bronze mirror.
Snow-white skin, tall and delicate facial features, and a pair of crystal clear pupils under the long eyelashes.
“Look, isn’t this beautiful?”
Li Lili covered her lips, and then hugged one of her few relatives in the world, her only brother, and used the other person's chest to vent the weakness caused by the five declines of heaven and man, and the hesitation that could not be overcome through tears.
Like an elder brother like a father, Li Yi patted her on the back gently and restrained her past laziness, leaving only the sense of security and stability of an elder.
"Cry, just cry. Monks are not heartless people. Many times they don't cry because they can't cry. You can only rely on yourself. The world will always be cruel, and you must arm yourself to the teeth, so as to avoid Getting hurt."
“But you still have me, you can cry in my brother’s arms.”
Li Lili cried louder and louder. She had lost the concept of time. She stopped crying until her voice became hoarse, her consciousness became drowsy, and she fell asleep completely.
The next day, early morning.
Li Lili woke up from her sleep and stood up in a panic. When she saw Li Yi sitting beside her bed, she quickly relaxed again.
Li Yi asked: "How did you sleep?"
The expression is as casual as ever, not too much warmth, but not too distant either, just a sparse and ordinary greeting.
Li Lili nodded slightly, and then fell into silence.
The room became so quiet for three quarters of an hour before Li Lili slowly said, "Brother, I don't want to die."
"good."
Li Yi responded concisely and clearly, reaching out and patting Li Lili on the head.
“You have become a god.”
"Um?"
Li Lili was stunned. When she came to her senses, she felt the majestic mana in her body and was confused for a moment.
“I...I turned into a god?”
"if not?"
“Isn’t this too simple?”
“It’s not easy either. Helping you transform into a **** is more tiring than handing over public food.”
Li Yi's face was not red and he was out of breath, and he did not show any signs of fatigue, but he usually looked like this when he went to pay the public rations.
It was very tiring when I had to make friends with three people at first, but as Li Yi got a little more familiar with him, I felt less and less tired.
Even now, even with Bai Shi, Li Yi can't even breathe after paying the official food.
Because he is stronger than he was six hundred years ago. He was not sure he could help others transform into gods before, but now he can.
This form of God is not the other form of God. There is no need to understand the Tao, but to rely on one's own Tao. By doing this day and night, the chance of entering the Tao is extremely high, and its difficulty is equivalent to "the blessing of heaven and earth".
“It’s just that I thought you might not help my incompetent sister. I thought you didn’t want to help others survive.”
Li Lili hugged her knees, smiling weakly and uneasily.
“What destroys the cause and effect of life and death...”
There were many people begging her eldest brother to continue his life. When the clinic was opened in the village, many people asked for help. Whether it is dignitaries who know something about the situation or ordinary people who only know medical skills, only a handful of them get help from the elder brother.
The chances are extremely slim.
His eldest brother doesn't like to help others survive. He once said: Life and death are determined by fate. I cannot interfere casually and I have no obligation.
Li Lili knew that she would ask for help, but she didn’t want to disappoint Li Yi more than her life.
Is it appropriate to allow people to get something for nothing, to make their spiritual practice come to nothing, and to live forever just because they are their own relatives?
Is this fair to all sentient beings in heaven and earth?
In Li Yi's calm eyes, thousands of Taoist rhymes are flowing, and the square inch of Taoist rhyme can be seen thousands of miles away, comparable to the sky and the earth.
This is no longer a simple spiritual platform and Taoist heart, but a road that is comparable to heaven and earth, and a road that is completely different from heaven and earth.
The ultimate perfect individual.
‘Isn’t this the regret I had at the beginning of my practice? ’
Click, a clear sound sounded, as if something broke, and as if a person took a step forward.
Li Yi's breathing slowed down, and hundreds of millions of laws changed, reaching the perfection of the Taoist heart.
He patted Li Lili's head gently and said with a shallow smile: "There is no better way for a chicken or a dog to ascend to heaven. Your brother and I are a common man. Others will engage in nepotism when they become officials. When I become an immortal, I will neither bring trouble to the world nor harm others." , why can’t you live longer?”
“Heaven and earth can still take care of those who are destined by destiny, why can’t I?”
“If you want to live, you can always live.”
Keeping the people he wants alive alive is something that Li Changsheng cannot do, but it is something that Li Yi can do.
Therefore, my heart is Heaven’s heart, and my will is Heaven’s will.
Originally, I prepared an outline of several thousand words for the ending very early on. It took a long time to lay the groundwork, and I typed out 6,000 words yesterday. But suddenly I looked back and wondered in my heart: Why does the ending have to be tragic, and why do all the characters have to be written to death? ?
If written like this, what is the difference between Li Yi and Li Changsheng? The tragedy of Li Changsheng is enough. It all ends. What disease do I have? Your family’s tragedy is the most precious, right?
Then I deleted the outline of the ending and the 6,000 words. I wanted to write a cool story, about chickens and dogs ascending to heaven, about everything in the harem, and about happy endings! (Provoke it!!)
