I studied abroad in modern times

Chapter 399: Be sincere and begging for it

Zheng Fa looked at Xiao Yuying, and the other party stood in front of the magic weapon screen and stared at him seriously. Although his eyes were not sharp, they were particularly clear, as if they could see everything clearly.

On the screen, a jade-colored deer appeared and loomed among the mountains, facing the two of them, as if they were about to walk into the continuous mountains.

Seeing that Zheng Fa did not speak, Xiao Yuying did not stop asking:

"Although Venerable Tianhe is a taboo for the Five Sects of Xuanwei, your current actions are actually to offend the cultivators in the world... Others don't know, don't you?"

"I have seen a lot of records about the past, and I think I have some understanding of Xuanwei's past..." Xiao Yuying was originally a person who was extremely confident and even conceited, but now she was a little scared, "What you do... Since ancient times, No one dares, no, even no one thinks.”

Zheng Fa then understood why, after entering Jiushan Sect, although Xiao Yuying was cooperating with him, she was gradually drifting away from them, and even now she had the ambition to leave.

He originally thought that the other party was proud of his background and was unwilling to surrender to Jiushan Sect too early.

Now it seems that it is because Xiao Yuying watched coldly during this period, as if she had seen through herself, and even seen through the current Jiushan Sect.

Senior Sister Zhang may understand what he thought he was thinking. Others may have some guesses, but none of them could see so far and so deep as Xiao Yuying.

Xiao Yuying's words, in one sentence, are... Zheng Fa betrayed the monk class!

Even Senior Sister Zhang may not understand this very much.

"Fairy Xiao, I have always called you a historian in my heart... I didn't expect that you have such a long-term vision..."

"What do you think?" Xiao Yuying said irritably, as if she wanted to scold Zheng Fa. "If you do the "Golden Pill Project", I can still say that you are building a pill for yourself."

"But what are you doing now?"

"Simplify the cultivation methods, spread them widely, and even teach the method of creating spiritual weapons to mortals... If you only stop there, it would be fine."

"But what is this idea at the end? Do you understand?"

"Everyone can learn the theory of practice!"

"It is all the skills of cultivating immortals that are either eliminated or become worthless!"

"It is a monk not only no longer arrogant, but also has to work for mortals!"

"Which monk can bear it?"

"Which sect can accept it?"

Xiao Yuying's words became faster and faster, and at the end, her tone was even higher: "Zheng Fa, you have such a good talent and such a high talent, why do you become the enemy of the monks in the world?"

Xiao Yuying's expression seemed extremely anxious, but the smile on Zheng Fa's face became stronger and stronger.

"What are you laughing at!"

Zheng Fa bowed and said, "I am thankful for Fairy Xiao for worrying about me."

He really didn't expect that Xiao Yuying not only had an extraordinary talent in Lei Fa, but also had a very profound understanding of many things. Now this impatience is a manifestation of the other party's kindness.

"It's good that you know... With your current achievements and talent, give up this path. If you defect to one of the five sects, although you won't have the current status and reputation, you won't be able to exterminate yourself from the Xuanwei Cultivator."

Although Zheng Fa was just silent and did not refuse, this silence was resistance.

"If you don't want to bend your head to the five sects..."

Xiao Yuying's tone was a little hesitant, as if she was a little unconfident, but she still gritted her teeth and said,

"I can also ask my master... there should be a way to save your life... as long as you lose your way, you will be back."

Xiao Yuying's master may be really not simple to say this.

Her sincere and realistic protection for herself touched Zheng Fa a little.

Zheng Fa looked at Xiao Yuying, and the smile on his face became deeper and deeper, but... he still shook his head.

"You..." Xiao Yuying seemed a little anxious and paused, "Then let me leave the Jiushan Realm, I don't want to bury you Jiushan Sect."

"Fairy Xiao..." Zheng Fa thought for a while and said generously, "Based on the fairy's contribution to my Jiushan Sect, as long as he abides by the previous treaties, he can come and go freely, and I will never interfere."

Xiao Yuying was stunned and saw Zheng Fa wavering his hand behind her, and a light gate appeared behind her.

Outside the Light Gate is the Xuanwei Realm.

As long as she raises her foot, she can escape from the Jiushan Sect, the whirlpool that scares her.

But she was a little hesitant at this time.

Zheng Fa smiled and said, "Fairy Xiao, since you are not in a hurry to leave, then let's sit down and listen to me and tell me what I think?"

He pointed to the chair in the lobby.

Zheng Fadang sat on a wooden chair first. Xiao Yuying was silent for a while, then sat down. There was a short wooden table that was used to hold tea cups on weekdays.

Seeing her sitting down, Zheng Fa said:

"Fairy Xiao, you asked a big question, and even some things... I didn't think it through myself."

He thought about it for a while and added:

"I'm even a little bit unfamiliar with my knowledge. I'm not as good as Fairy, you have a deep understanding of the past of Xuanwei Realm. If I'm wrong about what I said, I hope Fairy Xiao can come up with some things that I have incomplete considerations for the sake of our friendship."

Xiao Yuying was surprised when she heard his tone of sincereness, as if she was really asking for advice.

Zheng Fa smiled bitterly and said, "I can only discuss many ideas with Senior Sister Zhang. Although Uncle Pang and others treat me very well, their ideas are no different from those of traditional monks in Xuanwei Realm. Some things are harmful and useless when they hear them."

"Fairy Xiao, since you have seen some clues and are determined to think for me, I dare to reveal some of the thoughts in my heart."

Xiao Yuying nodded and said, "Tell me."

"Fairy Xiao, you are right. If you continue on the Jiushan Sect, you will stand opposite almost all the monks."

"Simplifying the exercises will lead to a lower threshold for practice. Even if the spiritual energy remains subsided, it will intensify the competition among existing monks... Spiritual materials, spiritual land, and spiritual energy are limited."

"You know..."

Zheng Fa shook his head, interrupted Xiao Yuying, and continued: "Building a factory, cultivating workers, or even workers who do not need cultivation will lead to lower returns for weapon refiners, and even completely eliminate some traditional weapon refiners. Techniques…”

"So is it the sign."

"I'll know the dangers of this road now... I'll tell you, Fairy."

Zheng Fa and Xiao Yuying said are actually one thing - the current situation of Xuanwei Realm, which is the Xuanwei Cultivator who controls or monopolizes all resources of Xuanwei Realm through super powerful force and extraordinary technology. .

These people are naturally little handicraftsmen.

The sects of Xuanwei Realm are similar to feudal lords.

The reforms made by Zheng Fa will lower the threshold for obtaining force, simplify technology, and spread...

Industry will surely impact handicrafts, and factories will surely impact feudal lords.

He did this more thoroughly than any cultivator in the Xuanwei Realm before. It is precisely because of this that Xiao Yuying said that he was standing opposite all the cultivators.

He actually expected this.

Xiao Yuying stopped talking at this time.

She looked at Zheng Fa in confusion and asked with her eyes - Since you know so well, why do you still have to choose this path?

In this regard, Zheng Fa only gave an ordinary explanation:

"I can't do anything about it."

Zheng Fa's words stunned Xiao Yuying.

"This is a last resort. Fairy Xiao, now my Jiushan Sect has progressed but not retreated. Apart from this path, I really can't find any way to strengthen the sect in a short period of time."

What else does Xiao Yuying want to say?

"Fairy Xiao, you might as well join the Five Xuanwei Sects, or ask Ling Shi to protect me... If you don't talk about what to do with Jiushan Sect, just say myself... I still hope to take my life into my own hands. ”

Zheng Fa said frankly: "I can naturally tolerate some things, but I am afraid I can't learn some things."

“…”

Xiao Yuying pursed her lips, not knowing what to say, but it seemed that she understood some of Zheng Fa's choices.

"Also, Fairy Xiao... You said I betrayed the monk, but I think it seems that the monk betrayed the mortals."

Zheng Fa's words made Xiao Yuying frown: "Where do you start with this?"

"I didn't feel this way before, but since I learned some of the secrets of the Tao Fruit, I have had some different views..." Zheng Fa explained, "Whether it is the way of gods, immortals, or any method of cultivation, in the end, , they all need people, most of them are mortals..."

"And the Tao fruit is probably the origin of all the exercises."

"The monks have never said that they have achieved enlightenment from mortals, but even Taoism may have grown because of mortals..."

"If you are kind to mortals, it is called betraying the monk, then who is betraying whom?"

When Zheng Fa first learned about the Tao fruit, he thought of an essay he had read: I think it was sentient beings who saved the Buddha.

Xiao Yuying was stunned, as if she had never thought about this problem, and she didn't know how to deal with Zheng Fa's rebuttal.

"Of course, this matter is actually not clear. As I said, if it weren't for the lack of choice... I wouldn't have chosen this path."

Zheng Fa said honestly.

He really doesn't have such a deep sense of morality. He has always been unreasonable since he entered Jiushan Sect, but if he wants to let him sacrifice his life for fairness or something, in fact, he can't do it either. .

If it weren't for the moment that Jiushan Sect seemed to be shining, but in fact it was as dangerous as it was, he wouldn't have such a choice.

He knew the dangers of this road more clearly than anyone else. Xiao Yuying didn't speak, and after pondering for a long time, she said, "But..."

"Fairy Xiao, I just said there was nothing I could do, it was for short-term interests..." Zheng Fa interrupted her and continued to explain, "In the long run..."

"In the long run, you will become an enemy of all monks, whether it is the Demon Sect, the Immortal Sect or the Ancient Immortal God..."

"No, in the long run, we will face the decline of spiritual energy..." Zheng Fa said slowly, "If you cannot solve this problem, the monks will not exist."

"This path...can this solve the disaster of spiritual energy decline?"

Xiao Yuying opened her eyes wide.

Zheng Fa shook his head honestly and said slowly, "I don't know, I don't know enough about the decline of spiritual energy now, but... Fairy Xiao, you know, destroying mortals, demon ancestors have done it, destroying cultivators, and Venerable Tianhe has done it... ”

“We have to find a new way.”

"New method..." Xiao Yuying understood a little, "You mean, your method?"

"Immortal Way, I know you are a subscriber to Fairy."

“…Gather all wisdom?”

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Xiao Yuying seemed not surprised. She had been in Jiushan Realm for so long and was familiar with Zheng Fa's old wisdom.

"Yes, I can't think of a solution by myself, can't think of a 10,000 people? Can't think of a 10,000 people? Can't think of a 10,000 people?"

“…I didn’t expect it?”

"If I really can't imagine it, then I'll do my best. Fairy Xiao, do you know that there are more things in the past than me. Do you think there is a better way?"

Zheng Fa spread his hands, looking helpless but free and easy.

His words were honest and simple, but Xiao Yuying thought for a long time, frowned, as if thinking about a better choice.

Can…

She couldn't think of it. On the contrary, there was a look of being persuaded by Zheng Fa on her face.

Of course I can't imagine that the rapid progress of Jiushan Sect now can be said to be a proof of the power of this path.

"In the short term, this is the most suitable path for the development of Jiushan Sect. In the long term, this is the most likely way to solve the decline of spiritual energy." Zheng Fa's words at this moment were a little more domineering, "That's what the so-called whole world is The monk loves me and hates me, but what does it matter if the slightest wind and frost on this road?”

"..." Xiao Yuying was speechless, "Your words are probably really the true teachings of Venerable Tianhe."

Zheng Fa smiled.

He had no choice but to choose this path, but once he chose it, he let go of his hesitation and even moved forward.

Xiao Yuying's eyes flashed with thoughts, and suddenly looked up for a long time and asked Zheng Fa: "You have said so much, there is a question, but you haven't answered it yet."

"Um?"

"At the beginning, I asked you what the Jiushan Realm, or Xuanwei Realm, looks like in your heart... you didn't say it."

Zheng Fa did not expect Xiao Yuying to be so obsessed with this issue.

As if he understood his doubts, Xiao Yuying looked a little confused and said in a low voice:

"What you said is very good, but whether it is the Demon Ancestor or the Venerable Tianhe, they also had a very beautiful purpose at the beginning, but in the end... they may have caused some bad endings."

“…”

Xiao Yuying's thoughts really surprised Zheng Fa. To be honest, this view is also very reasonable, even a certain truth.

"Fairy Xiao, at this time, I don't want to let you go..."

He sighed sincerely.

Xiao Yuying blinked, her expression was not angry but happy, and she smiled on her face, as if she understood what Zheng Fa was sorry for.

"Fairy Xiao, if you ask me what the Jiushan Realm looks like in my heart... I am actually a little blurred, and I have never figured out what the Jiushan Realm will be like in the end."

Zheng Fa has always confessed, and is even more heart-to-heart at this moment.

"If you want to make it clear now, maybe...this is the sentence."

Zheng Fa stretched out his hand and wrote a line of words on the short table between the two. This sentence was engraved on the short table and was deeply imprinted in Xiao Yuying's heart.

There are only ten words on the short table: cultivating immortality and labour.

A look of enlightenment flashed across Xiao Yuying's face.

Zheng Fa explained:

"The laborization of cultivating immortals means that all monks will no longer allocate resources according to their cultivation level in the future, but will allocate resources according to their contribution to the sect. This contribution can be military merits, or do some tasks in the Common Affairs Hall, or it can be Research, anyway, as long as they create value for the sect, it will be fine."

"I understand...but it's hard."

Zheng Fa nodded. It was indeed difficult, and it could even be said to be a dream.

It's very simple. This thing naturally goes against the interests of high-level immortal cultivators.

"Work cultivation of immortality is my goal now. The ability of immortals is actually very powerful, and it is a pity to use it to destroy it..."

"A simplified external pill can completely change the world."

"A small spell can bring good harvests in the mortal world..."

"As long as you use the magic of immortal cultivation to transform the mortal world, transform the immortal magic from studying the way of fighting to the way of production. The benefits generated will be limitless... Mortals, lower-level monks, and even all monks in the future may be able to escape from the low level. The labor burden of quality, all your energy is spent exploring the path of immortality, and promoting your own cultivation and the progress of the Jiushan Realm."

"Maybe one day, we have enough talents to solve the disaster of the declining spiritual energy."

Speaking of this, Zheng Fa stopped, and he said to Xiao Yuying again: "This is just an attempt by me. I don't know whether it will cause irreversible results... Fairy Xiao, if it were you Can advise you on the side..."

Through this conversation, Zheng Fa was not only envious of Xiao Yuying's achievements in archaeology and thunder, but also more convinced by Xiao Yuying's vision.

He thought that his greatest advantage was that he could admit his shortcomings. The so-called use of history as a mirror... Isn't Xiao Yuying, a person who is proficient in mysterious history, a mirror?

Just as Zheng Fa said just now... he was really reluctant to let Xiao Yuying go.

With this woman's knowledge, she is really a good policy consultant. She will check for omissions and make up for the shortcomings in the future and give Zheng Fa some reminders, which should be very useful.

Well, it’s definitely not that she has a big background. If she really fails in the future, she can hug her thighs urgently.

Just now, he said that the declining spiritual energy was more important than using this to leave Xiao Yuying behind. With the other party's eyes, he should understand that the idea that Zheng Fa mentioned may be the greatest hope.

If you want Xiao Yuying to risk her life to help them, the only possible angle is to solve the problem of the decline of spiritual energy...

But Xiao Yuying has a broad knowledge and can understand the power of these ideas that Zheng Fa mentioned better than others, and can even see the huge power contained in it.

The reason for the people who are determined to be the Jiushan Sect and to be strong in the Jiushan Sect is enough to convince him.

But Xiao Yuying is different from a "historian" like Xiao Yuying.

Only this kind of thinking that looks long-term and even is derived from historical laws can impress the other party.

Sure enough, Xiao Yuying thought about it, and the suspicion on her face gradually disappeared, and instead showed a convincing expression.

But what he didn't expect was that Xiao Yuying was silent for a long time, and when she spoke again, she insisted on saying:

"I want to leave the Jiushan Realm..."

Zheng Fa sighed in his heart, but also kept his promise and said, "Then I will send it..."

"You said you were looking for me just now. Didn't you want to restart the archaeological project team and ask me to explore the treasures of our predecessors in the Hundred Immortal Alliance?" Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuying laughed again, and was a little naughty, "I'm here How to explore the remains in the Jiushan Realm?”

"Fairy Xiao, you are really..."

Zheng Fa was a little silenced.

Previously, Mu Qingyan provided some information about the cave or treasures of his "previous life".

At that time, the threat from the Great Freedom Demon King was on the side, and the monks of the five sects were also here. Zheng Fa put it aside out of his carefulness.

Now there are no worries.

It just so happened that Mu Qingyan spent most of her previous life nearby. Eighty percent of the ruins she knew were in the former territory of the Hundred Immortal Alliance. Now under the control of Zheng Fa, she is famous for her masters.

Now Jiushan Sect needs a lot of resources, so there is no worries at the moment. Go and do some money-making... No, archaeological work is very timely.

He came to find Xiao Yuying because of this matter - he wanted to form a new archaeological project team and began to excavate various ruins.

I don’t know how Xiao Yuying was observing herself and Jiushan Realm, but she really grasped some of his thoughts...

Just now, it seemed like he was determined to leave.

The complicated expression on Zheng Fa's face seemed to amuse Xiao Yuying. She seemed to have successfully had a prank, and she smiled at Zheng Fa:

"I haven't finished learning Electromagnetics..."

Then I'm really relieved, I can't finish learning this thing...

The deer on the screen turned her head silently, and her warm eyes stared at Zheng Fa, as if walking towards him.

In the deer's mouth, she also held a five-colored spiritual flower with crystal dewdrops, as if she was about to hand it to Zheng Fa's hand.
