Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 4671 Chapter 4674 [Return to the mountains to hide]

During the period of papermaking, smelting, and the promotion of new crops, Xiang Nan secretly went to Zhongtu.

At this time, China was in the Shang Dynasty, and the king of Shang Dynasty was Wu Ding.

Wu Ding was a very talented king. He led the army to conquer Fang countries in various places, greatly increasing the territory of the kingdom.

The territory of the Shang Dynasty was much larger than that of the previous dynasties. It stretched from the Bashang Grassland to the north, to the Han River area in the south, to the Bohai Sea in the east, and to Longyou in the west. It was all Shang territory, which was quite remarkable.

The reason why Xiang Nan came to Middle-earth was to learn divination and Five Elements Taoism.

The Shang Dynasty was keen on divination, and all matters big and small were divined. At that time, there were specialized divination officials, called "Taibu", who mastered three divination techniques, one was "Lianshan", the other was "Guizang", and the other was "Book of Changes".

Through the three divination techniques, one can analyze the clouds and sunshine of the heaven and earth, the rotation of the four seasons, military and national events, weddings and funerals, good and bad luck, etc.

Xiang Nan was very interested in divination, so he immediately asked the Shang Kingdom for advice, and soon learned the "Three Changes".

The "Three Changes" were originally state secrets of the Shang Dynasty, and only a few people could master them. But the reason why Taibu still taught Xiang Nan was mainly because he used mind control techniques.

No matter how proficient the fortune teller is in the art of divination, he has no choice but to tell the truth to a loose immortal like Xiang Nan. And with Xiang Nan's qualifications, he quickly learned it in less than half a year.

…

The Five Elements Taoism is divided into metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Once you learn it, you can master the power of the Five Elements.

It originated in the Three Emperors period of ancient times and was already quite strong by the time it spread to the Shang Dynasty.

Xiang Nan originally knew the Five Elements Taoism. After coming to Middle-earth, he found the hermit alchemists and easily learned their unique skills.

To be honest, the Five Elements Taoism at this time is much stronger than that of later generations.

On the one hand, the inheritance of Taoism is at risk of being lost, especially natural and man-made disasters, war and famine, which often lead to the disconnection of the inheritance;

On the one hand, no matter in ancient or modern times, both at home and abroad, there is a lesson of "teaching the apprentice, starving the master to death". Therefore, everyone likes to have two unique skills when teaching apprentices.

Therefore, Taoism and Dharma inheritance are always stronger with age and weaker in later generations.

Xiang Nan learned a lot of Five Elements Taoism in Zhongtu, such as the "Xuanjin Sword Qi" of the metal system, the "Xutu Divine Gang" of the earth system, the "Nine Fire Flame Dragon" of the fire system, and the "Yi Mu Zhen" of the wood system. Jue", the water system's "Confluence of Hundreds of Rivers", etc., are all very powerful Tao techniques.

For example, after mastering Xuanjin Sword Qi, you can not only hurt people with invisible sword Qi, but also fly with Qi without using a flying sword, and the speed is even faster than a flying sword;

Xutu Shengang can absorb the power of mountains and rivers to temper itself, so that it has infinite power like the earth and mountains, and its body is as strong as mountains, rivers and earth.

The Nine Fire Flame Dragon, after being mastered, can summon nine fire dragons, which is extremely powerful. Wherever it goes, everything can be reduced to ashes, which is extremely terrifying.

Yimu Zhenjue can control the rooting, sprouting, flowering and fruiting of plants. It can also control flowers, plants and trees to attack enemies, and absorb the power of plants and trees to feed itself.

The confluence of hundreds of rivers can control the flow of water veins. Whether it is rain clouds in the sky, rivers on the ground, or water veins underground, they can all be controlled by him.

Therefore, Xiang Nan's strength has been further improved.

…

After Xiang Nan learned the Five Elements Taoism, he could also use it for good deeds in people's livelihood after returning to Egypt.

For example, he used Yimu Zhenjue to greatly speed up the growth of crops.

For example, sweet potatoes, potatoes, peanuts, corn, soybeans, etc. can only be harvested four to five months after sowing. But under the influence of Xiang Nan's magic, these crops can be eaten within a week. After they matured, Xiang Nan specially held a banquet in the palace, and the materials were these crops.

For example, shredded sweet potatoes, tomato beef brisket, salt-baked peanuts, roasted pork with potatoes, stir-fried pork with chili, spicy tofu, brown sugar steamed cakes, etc.

The guests had never eaten these foods before, and they felt that they were really delicious, much more delicious than any barbecue or burrito, so they couldn't stop eating them.

"How about it? Are these dishes delicious?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile.

"Dear Pharaoh, this is simply the most delicious food. Is it the delicacy you brought down from heaven?"

"Only God can eat such delicious food. We are so lucky to be able to eat it today!"

"This kind of food is sweet and delicious. It's simply too delicious. Only gods are worthy of enjoying such food~"

All the guests burst into tears of gratitude.

Not only are these foods made from novel ingredients, but they are also cooked using unique cooking methods. They are not roasted, fried, or boiled, so the taste is particularly magical.

It was something they had never heard of or seen before, and the taste was so wonderful that they almost swallowed it with their tongues.

"These new dishes are made from new crops." Xiang Nan said and clapped his hands, and then a servant brought the crops, including sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, peppers, soybeans, peanuts, sugar cane, etc.

"I am going to give you these crops." He added, "As you said, these crops are indeed brought back from heaven. Not only are they delicious, but they are also high-yielding. However, God's gifts will not come in vain. You need Contribute gold to get it.”

Although Xiang Nan wants to promote these high-yielding crops, he doesn’t want to give them away for free. Because as the saying goes, "If it's easy to get, take it easy."

Even if the Buddha clearly wanted to preach in the Tang Dynasty, he still had to make the master and disciples of the Tang Dynasty travel thousands of miles and go through ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships before he was willing to give it.

Sure enough, seeing how expensive these crops were, all these princes and ministers were interested, so they bought them at high prices and happily took them back to plant.

In order to guide them in planting, Xiang Nan specially gave them a roll of paper. The methods and key points of planting are written on the paper, including how often to water, fertilize, weed, etc. are written on it.

And when people saw the soft paper, they were all shocked.

These papers were much softer and softer than papyrus, and the words written on them were also very clear, which made them envious again.

"This is called 'paper', and it was brought down from the sky. It is particularly convenient for writing." Xiang Nan said, "If you are interested, you can also spend money to buy it."

No one was very interested in this.

After all, the literacy rate in Egypt was not high at that time, and even the nobles were illiterate. For them, it is better to keep the money than to buy paper.

He didn't mind Xiang Nan. Even if they didn't want the paper, he still had a use for it.

…

Later, with the promotion of Xiang Nan, high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, as well as oil crops such as peanuts and soybeans, as well as condiments such as sugar cane and pepper, were quickly promoted in Egypt.

At first, only a few nobles were planting them. Later, when the advantages of high yield and delicious taste of these crops were recognized, more and more people were planting them, and more and more people were benefited.

For example, sweet potatoes can produce up to six thousand kilograms per acre of land, while wheat in ancient Egypt can produce up to one or two hundred kilograms per acre, which is a difference of dozens of times.

Therefore, sweet potatoes can feed at least ten times the population, which also causes the population to slowly increase.
