If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

Chapter 239 The Essence of Life

"Indeed."

After hearing Jia Sixie's words, Lin Ke relaxed his brows and said, "That's how it should be."

It's normal for Jia Sixie to have such considerations.

Because he is also a product of the old rites era, his ideology and way of thinking are all born from the old rites.

So, of course Jia Sixie would be worried.

"There is a lot of pedantry in the world. Your talents are beneficial to the world. It would be too unfair to lose your talent in a battle of etiquette."

Jia Sixie saw that Lin Ke's expression was so unconcerned, but he became more solemn: "You don't know the power of the Ministry of Rites. Even if you are Lin Xuanji's son, you can't fight against the Rites."

This……

Lin Ke reacted immediately.

Jia Sixie was not in the Wei Dynasty, so he certainly didn't know the changes in the Wei Dynasty.

Dawei...the sky has changed!

Previously, Jia Sixie had no idea that a court meeting would be held later when he wrote the "Encyclopedia of Biology".

And even now, many people actually don't know that the imperial court has held a court meeting.

Because everything has not been prepared by the court, it will be announced to the world when it is ready.

Therefore, Jia Sixie's purpose of coming here at this time is very simple.

He felt that Lin Ke was talented and cherished his talent.

In addition, he probably knew about the competition between Lin Ke and Qi Ye, but he didn't know about Lin Ke's current status.

Jia Sixie's idea was very simple, to take Lin Ke away and protect Lin Ke.

"How is it? Lin Ke." Jia Sixie saw that Lin Ke didn't reply immediately, so he asked again: "With your talents, you may be able to enter the holy realm within a thousand years. It would be a pity if you are affected by other things."

"Jia Sheng, don't you know?" Lin Ke smiled and shook his head: "Now, it's time for new gifts to be given."

"New...new gift?"

Jia Sixie was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Lin Ke was talking about.

"Yes, what you said, Jia Sheng, is an old ritual." Lin Ke muttered: "The Holy Emperor held a court meeting..."

As soon as these words came out, Jia Sixie suddenly understood.

Once the court meeting is held, no information about the court meeting can be disclosed.

What can be said and what cannot be said are actually all said in the court meeting.

in this case……

"Wait for me a moment..." Jia Sixie closed his eyes, and a mysterious and mysterious aura suddenly spread out.

His literary spirit began to stir, and the scene of farmers cultivating the land and all things growing was faintly visible on it.

At the same time, the spine on his back was like a piece of rice made of jade, dancing gently.

Then, Jia Sixie's eyes opened and intense white light burst out.

The literary heart, the bones of a gentleman, and the soul of Confucianism!
"Heaven and earth, give me." Jia Sixie's body emitted subtle fluctuations, and then those fluctuations collided with the world, just like the ripples of water in a cup hitting the wall of the cup.

No, or rather, it's like a bat's ultrasound.

The bat's ultrasonic waves are transmitted out, and then echo back after hitting an obstacle. The bat uses this information to determine the obstacle.

What Jia Sixie did at this time was very similar, only more mysterious.

For a moment, although he did not choose Confucianism, Lin Ke's power of change clearly felt what Jia Sixie was doing.

Perceive the world and get information!

Just like opening your eyes to look around, listening with your ears, smelling with your nose, and tasting with your tongue.

The method of semi-saints is to use the holy body to perceive, just like ordinary people see, hear, taste, and smell. "That's it, that's it..."

Jia Sixie's eyes glowed with white light, and he immediately understood the changes between heaven and earth.

During this process, the offices of the Sangong and Twelve Ministries all had different reactions, and there were also changes in the Jingzhao Yin Office.

Fangfang's important official seals and tokens naturally glow.

A semi-saint is born!

However, after these officials realized that Jia Sixie was sensing the heaven and earth, they immediately relaxed the restrictions and warnings.

Therefore, Jia Sixie obtained the information he wanted.

"Link..."

Jia Sixie looked at Lin Ke, the light in his eyes slowly faded away, and Wen Xin, Junzi Gu, etc. also disappeared one by one, just like an ordinary old man.

"Lin Ke, you are now full-fledged."

Jia Sixie looked at the young man in front of him and sighed with emotion: "Old rituals... new rituals... I am really shocked that His Majesty can change the world in such a short period of time."

"I'm just an ordinary theorist." Lin Ke smiled and shook his head: "Jia Sheng, you are the real guardians and practitioners of heaven and earth."

Theorists and practitioners, these two words touched Jia Sixie.

However, he didn’t say much, and started real communication and asking questions:

"I still don't know a lot about genes and inheritance, as well as what you call natural selection, what you call mutation, or evolution and degeneration. I hope you can answer it..."

"Tell me everything you know." Lin Ke nodded and began to pay attention.

"Why is the so-called gene so random? His father is wise and his son is stupid. Is this related to what his father did?"

"It may be related to some genetic diseases of the parents, or some rare congenital diseases. If congenital factors are excluded, it is caused by the day after tomorrow, but there is always a reason."

"So, if his father likes spicy food and his mother likes spicy food, will his descendants also want to eat spicy food?"

"Not necessarily. Individuals will transform themselves according to the environment. This acquired effort can suppress certain innate inheritance to a certain extent."

"Tiger cannot be a vegetarian. Rabbit likes to eat green grass. Can we change?"

"There should be a fundamental gene for something. If this gene is changed, the entire gene may collapse. But if it is a non-fundamental gene, maybe it can be changed?"

"Is it true?"

"It's just a conjecture and has not been verified..."

Lin Ke and Jia Sixie asked and answered questions, but most of the questions Jia Sixie asked were micro-level questions.

But it's the same when I think about it.

As a farm boss himself, Jia Sixie can probably understand and comprehend many issues at a glance.

For example, in addition to climate and moisture, the conditions for crop growth also include altitude, temperature, genes, the content of inorganic salts such as potassium, calcium, and sodium, the pH of the land, and so on.

Jia Sixie probably knows a lot of things, and it's not like people don't know how to observe.

We know what can live in saline-alkali land and what cannot grow in high altitudes, but we just haven’t defined it like Lin Ke did.

Those are all small problems.

In Jia Sixie's opinion, the most difficult and least clearly explained thing in Lin Ke's book is about the nature of living things.

As for the essence of living things, in Jia Sixie's current view, Lin Ke's understanding is that the essence of living things comes from something named "gene" deep in the blood.

Mendel did an experiment and judged through that hybridization experiment that changes in the genes of peas would lead to external changes.

Jia Sixie also integrated some of his past memories and knew that this experiment was true!
The essence of life is genes!
So, the final question is...

What are genes?
