Nan Yi returned to Chengyou Bookstore and saw Song Zhong waiting for him outside the store.
Seeing Song Zhong's serious expression, Nan Yi asked curiously: "Brother Song, are you looking for me if you have something?"
Song Zhong nodded, but took Nan Yi to a remote place and talked about the academy.
On the night of the 14th, the head of the Wu'an Supervisor used "Water Moon Cleansing Heart" and "Water Moon Confused Heart" to cleanse and modify the memories of the people in the city.
However, since this method is forcibly implemented with the help of the county magistrate's seal, its guiding effect is relatively weak.
Not only are some strong-willed warriors immune to being affected, but even mortals who are closely related to the monks may be able to break away from the spell due to the interference of the aura.
Song Zhong, for example, has no memory of being harassed by demonic cultivators.
If it were an ordinary mortal, the county government would seal it separately after discovering it. But academy students like Song Zhong may be asked by academy teachers in advance whether they are willing to enter Taoism and practice.
Song Zhong entered the Creation Academy and received inquiries in recent days.
He was considering whether to enter Taoism and practice Buddhism.
For those who have awakened their natural supernatural powers, they can simply skip the cultivation period of storing essence.
But for ordinary people, hiding one's essence and practicing cultivation is no longer a child's play.
Not only is it necessary to meditate every day, adjust and guide one's own physique, so that one's own physique matches the specific source Qi as much as possible; but also, even if one receives the source Qi after the completion of the hidden essence, there is almost a chance that the source Qi will not be received for the first time. Died suddenly.
College students have the opportunity to enter Taoism and practice.
But not all academy students will choose to join Taoism.
For example, Bi Shengke, the magistrate of Nanshan County, gave up practicing Taoism after hesitating for a long time.
You can live a cool life by being a small official honestly.
But when you enter Taoism and practice, just to receive the source of Qi, you are almost likely to die suddenly, which can be regarded as risking your life.
Song Zhong hesitated.
However, at this moment, Song Zhong saw Nan Yi's newly published "People with Patriotism and Benevolence".
As the son of a petty official, Song Zhong could not be considered a commoner, nor could he be called a noble family, but his family was still relatively wealthy.
Nan Yi's speech in "People with Aspirations and Benevolence" almost touched Song Zhong's heart.
After reading "People with Aspirations and Benevolence", Song Zhong felt a surge of pride in his heart, and immediately no longer hesitated whether to join the Immortal Sect of Creation.
He waited until the lunch class was over and immediately went straight to Chengyou Bookstore, waiting for Nan Yi and asking if he could learn internal skills.
Nan Yi was slightly surprised and did not rush to reply to this question, but said: "Brother Song, are you hesitant to accept the danger of Yuan Qi? To be honest with Brother Song, my talent is called "Full Healing", which can heal people's injuries and extend their lives. . If Brother Song is willing to enter Taoism and receive the source of Qi, I can protect you and protect your life. "
Song Zhong shook his head: "In the past two days, I was really hesitant, wondering whether it was worth sacrificing my life to join the Tao. But after reading the article written by Brother Nan, Song felt that it made no difference whether he had joined the Tao or not."
Nan Yi smiled and said: "How can there be no difference? If you enter Taoism and practice, as long as you don't die, you can hope to live forever."
"However, it is just immortality." Song Zhong said solemnly, "On the road to immortality, there are not many people from more Song Dynasties, and there are not many people from Song Dynasty less than that."
Nan Yi kept silent and listened quietly as Song Zhong continued to speak.
"Since the academy is the gate of immortality, then most of the high-ranking civil and military officials in the dynasty are monks. However, as monks, how are they different from the country? What benefit does it bring to the country?"
"Disregarding the development brought about by technological progress, how has the world changed today from thousands of years ago?"
"Looking back at the history books with this question in mind, Song discovered that nearly ten thousand years after leaving the dynasty, there was not much change in people's livelihood. And the senior officials of the past dynasties could not be said to have made any achievements."
"I don't know whether monks become officials for cultivation or for something else. But Song can see that there is basically no difference between senior officials and ministers in the past, whether they are monks or mortals."
"In Dali and the people, when evaluating officials of all dynasties, they all say "inaction". "
"It would be fine if they were all mortals. It wouldn't be surprising if they disappeared from the crowd. But they are all monks. Monks who seek immortality and occupy high positions in the court, but have achieved nothing."
"The monks and high-ranking officials have changed from generation to generation. But the people seem to be in a net, and they have remained unchanged for thousands of years."
"Those who serve as officials benefit the people and ask for orders for the people. These words have been said again and again by emperors throughout the ages. But after reading the history books, I only see: Hundreds of officials make nets for a long time, and the common people weave clothes for three generations."
"Brother Nan, the corruption you mentioned in your article refers to this kind of situation?"
Song Zhong looked steadily at Nan Yi.
Nan Yi was silent.
In "People with Aspirations and Benevolence", he did not elaborate on "what is the stubborn disease of decay", but only mentioned it to discuss the great benevolence and righteousness.
When a civilization and social form have not changed significantly for thousands of years, it can only mean that the upper levels of the civilization are consciously maintaining the current situation.
In the Dali Dynasty, the royal family and the nine tribes checked and balanced each other, and they relied on internal competition to barely maintain their vitality. Coupled with the development and improvement of productivity, people's lives seem to be pretty good.
However, looking at the essence through the phenomenon, whether it is the imperial family or the nine sects, as the outer sect of the ten immortal sects, there may be winners and losers in different periods.
But one thing remains unchanged.
That is, the people at the bottom will always be at the bottom.
The people at the bottom can only change their lives, break through class, and no longer be ordinary people if they are lucky enough to enter Taoism and practice.
Deep down in Nan Yi's heart, there is no doubt that this type of society with solidified classes and unchanging social patterns is a decadent system, which is neither healthy nor despised by him.
Nan Yi never thought about actually criticizing the Li DPRK system.
It's just that "A Scholar with Aspirations and a Benevolent Person" was, after all, his desire to talk about something that arose during the Nantian Festival.
Seeing that the people's lives were like straw and died so lightly; thinking that the people's memories were like books, scribbled on at will, Nan Yi instinctively felt unhappiness.
Even though he deliberately restrained himself, the contempt deep in his heart showed only a trace of true feelings, which made him write the words "the stubborn disease of decay".
After reading these five words, ordinary people would generally think that Nan Yi was alluding to the so-called aristocratic family, which only cares about selfish interests and does not uphold justice.
Unexpectedly, Song Zhong was hesitating whether to join Taoism recently. When he saw Nan Yi's article, he immediately thought of the monks and the Dali system itself.
It can only be said that the leopard can be seen in the pipe. For many things, as long as the introduction is thrown out, people will inevitably see the signs.
Faced with Song Zhong's deep eyes, Nan Yi said slowly: "Monks practice immortality in order to seek the longevity of one person. Therefore, monks are all single-husbands. Since they are single-husbands, they naturally only have eyes for themselves."
"Fortunately, for those who are officials and practitioners, the strength of the people's livelihood is related to their cultivation background. They will also worry about this and try to improve the people's livelihood."
"In my opinion, the Lichao system is not that good, but it is not bad either. People can live a pretty good life throughout their lives."
"It's just that under this kind of system, all measures to benefit the people only seek to cure the symptoms, not the root cause. They only seek to make the people's families have more money, but they will not seriously allow the people to stand up and become powerful."
"Only by practicing Taoism can we hope to change our lives and stop being ordinary people."
A smile appeared on Song Zhong's face: "Back then, there was only one way to enter Taoism and practice. But now, Brother Nan's creation of internal strength has really opened up a new way."
Song Zhong implored Nan Yi to teach him his inner strength and mental methods.
Nan Yi still didn't answer the question, but said: "Brother Song, with me protecting you, I can help you enter the Tao."
Song Zhong looked firm: "If you just enter the Tao and become a single man, then it's okay if you don't join the Tao."
"It's about my own future. I hope Brother Song will think twice." Nan Yi could only sigh, "First of all, my inner strength has not been brought to the forefront. Secondly, I just wrote an article to give guidance to the country. If Brother Song has no chance to enter the Tao, If you come to me to ask for inner strength and mental methods, I won't hesitate. But right now, there is no need to give up strength for weakness."
"Brother Nan, there is no need to persuade me. I have thought clearly on the way here." Song Zhong said with a smile, "Even if I don't talk about serving the country and the people, being benevolent and righteous, for me personally, practicing Taoism is at most just living. You have to grow up a little longer and have some self-preservation power, and you don’t dare to expect to become an immortal or an ancestor.”
"Song's pursuit not only allows you to practice internal strength, but also avoids the risks of practicing Taoism. Therefore, in my opinion, it is not about giving up strength for weakness, but about giving up difficulty for ease."
"Besides, Brother Nan doesn't need to belittle himself. Major affairs of the country are not the business of one person. The situation in Dali has nothing to do with Brother Nan. I have never seriously thought about letting Brother Nan change the corrupt system on his own. "
"However, Brother Nan alone can see the crux of Da Li's stubborn disease. This vision, in Song's opinion, is far superior to ordinary people and is extraordinary."
Seeing that Song Zhong used the rhetoric of "giving up hardship to seek ease", Nan Yi couldn't persuade him anymore, so he had to teach Song Zhong martial arts and pass down the "Yi Jing".
Song Zhong closed his eyes and felt the magic of martial arts. He opened his eyes and smiled and said: "To be honest, Brother Nan, I have read so many books, and they are all written by you. They are both refreshing and exciting, and they also tug at the heartstrings."
"I have always been puzzled before, until I read "The Man with the Loyalty and the Benevolent" today, and I realized that the plot in Brother Nan's book really has a chivalrous spirit and a chivalrous spirit."
"Now that I have gained internal strength, Song feels happy and feels that his dream has come true. Unlike before, when he learned that the academy is the Immortal Gate and asked me if I would like to enter Taoism, I felt no joy in my heart, only worries about gains and losses."
Nan Yi smiled bitterly. The upper limit of practicing Taoism must be countless times stronger than internal strength.
However, the practice in this world is treacherous, with murderous intent at every step, and hidden dangers everywhere. It can be said to be extremely dangerous. It would be fine if you were content with refining the Qi realm, but if you want to break through the realm, you really have to have the heart to sacrifice your life.
"Brother Song, it's up to you whether you want to practice Taoism or not, so I won't advise you. Practicing internal strength will not affect your practice. If you decide to enter Taoism later, you can come to me to protect me and I will help you succeed. "
Song Zhong smiled and said: "Then we will see later. At least for now, I really have no intention of entering Taoism."
Nan Yi was helpless. Practicing internal strength does not affect Taoist practice.
It’s just that human mental strength and lifespan are ultimately limited. If you are too distracted by internal skills and mental methods, it may be difficult to achieve success when you enter Taoism later.
After bidding farewell to Song Zhong, Nan Yi returned to Chengyou Bookstore and fell into deep thought.
After this experience, he suddenly discovered that not everyone was like him, wholeheartedly pursuing the Tao: Even if he couldn't become an immortal, he still had to persevere on the road to becoming an immortal.
For most people, if they don't want to see the scenery seen by high-level monks, just living in the mortal world and practicing internal skills is enough.
There was Yan Qingyun before me, who didn’t want to do casual cultivation, or practice rubbish exercises to make himself neither human nor ghost;
Later, there was Song Zhong, who didn't even want to enter the righteous path of immortality. He didn't want to cultivate immortality and be a single man, but just wanted to live happily in the mortal world.
Nan Yi realized that although this world is a world of spiritual and spiritual cultivation, deep down in their hearts, most people still don’t want to take the path of spiritual cultivation.
If the world is dangerous and you must practice to save your life, you may be able to bite the bullet and practice magic in a mysterious way.
But this world is generally peaceful. Although if you are unlucky, you will still be a fish in the pond, but at least people are not dying one after another, and you don't have to worry about people dying quickly.
Today, even the pressure of population growth due to urbanization has forced the Li Dynasty to introduce steam technology, further pushing the original industrialization level that was originally inherited by the blood of a family of craftsmen to build factories and solve the problem of people's employment.
If given the choice, people in this world would never want to take the weird path of cultivating immortality.
After all, when it comes to immortality, is there any weird way to cultivate immortality?
At present, the internal strength is just created and the inner strength is just born, which can only increase the warrior's combat power by several percent. In the eyes of the monks, it is not worth mentioning.
But Nan Yi suspects that if he continues to improve his internal skills and perfects his inner skills to the "Nine Sun Magic Skills", and even has stronger magical effects, not only martial arts warriors will be tempted, but also many low-level casual cultivators may come to seek refuge. to him.
For a moment, Nan Yi felt embarrassed, wondering whether he should continue to perfect his internal skills.
It's okay to have a small fight at the moment, but in the long run, after he really perfects his internal strength, his behavior will completely poke the wall of the world of immortality.
Nan Yi felt a little guilty.
Tao Zhiming saw Nan Yi's guilty conscience and said with a smile, "Why, are you feeling guilty?"
Song Zhongshi found a remote place to chat with Nan Yi outside the bookstore.
But this distance, no matter how remote, was no different to Tao Zhiming than talking in his ear.
Tao Zhiming not only knew that Nan Yi had taught Song Zhong the internal skills, but he also knew that Nan Yi felt guilty and wondered whether he should continue to develop and perfect the internal skills.
Nan Yi didn't care that Tao Zhiming saw through his thoughts.
According to this world view, Tao Zhiming was his guide. But if he changes his world view, Tao Zhiming is equivalent to half of his master.
As a disciple, you will not be afraid of your master finding out your true identity.
Not only was he not afraid, Nan Yi hugged his thigh and asked, "I hope Senior Brother Tao can teach me what to do next?"
Tao Zhiming chuckled: "How do you want me to teach? Should you teach seriously or teach casually?"
Nan Yi tasted the product carefully and said: "Teach both, first teach a method carefully, and then teach a method casually."
Tao Zhiming smiled and shook his head noncommittally, seemingly feeling a little emotional.
However, he did not say why he was feeling sad, and instead said: "If you are serious about teaching, it depends on your path. Do you want to follow the righteous path of the Immortal Sect, or follow your own path based on your innate magical powers?" .”
As a disciple of the Wuxiang Immortal Sect, Nan Yi follows the righteous path of the Immortal Sect, which is mainly based on the Wuxiang Immortal Sect's techniques and techniques.
He is currently in the Qi-nurturing period and has upgraded his skills from "Xiao Wuxiang Jue" to "Xiao Wuxiang Miao Dharma", which allows him to practice "The True Understanding of Wuxiang", "The Formless Form", and "The Wuxiang Miao Dharma".
When you become mortal, you can practice the "Secret Code of Formless".
Then build the foundation and enter the inner door, where you can practice the "Unphased Evolution of the Dharma Sutra".
The Immortal Sect has a complete inheritance, and the Jiugong technique has its own system. Regardless of whether Nan Yi integrates his natural magical powers into his magical powers in the future, or integrates his magical powers into his natural magical powers, he can follow the Immortal Sect system.
The Wuxiang Immortal Sect is the best at picking tricks and copying and pasting. Although it does not have particularly strong offensive magical powers, it has no obvious shortcomings and shortcomings. It can be called the universal slicker in the spiritual world.
However, if you follow the righteous path of the Immortal Sect, you will follow the same path step by step. Although the first two realms go smoothly, if you want to advance to the realm of refining gods and countering the void, you must pay special attention to opportunities.
But if you focus on your own talents and independently open up and improve your path, it may be difficult to say whether you are strong or weak, but promotion is relatively easy.
Tao Zhiming gave Nan Yi a thorough understanding.
Since magic and magical powers are all manifestations of the power of rules, then future practice will naturally move from rules to laws.
However, there are too many people taking the right path of the Immortal Sect, and the rules and authority are not enough. Unless you have some insights and perfect the complement rules, it will be difficult to draw the authority of the rules.
After hearing this, Nan Yi suddenly remembered "The Lord of Mysteries" that he had watched in his previous life.
In the mysterious world, the number of establishments is fixed, and the previous one has to be withdrawn, unless another establishment is added;
To seek a position and a position, you must be like a person in that position, and your development will be smooth;
No matter how pure spirituality is, he is just a little monk. He has to control the rules and authority of a certain mouth in order to be called the ancestor of the clan.
"Of course, you have more than one talent. Even if you open up a new path, there is more than one way to go. Relying on the "Emperor's Sword" as the core, deducing and perfecting your internal strength, and gathering the power of everyone to achieve enlightenment is one way. "
Tao Zhiming continued: "In addition, using 'Full Healing' as the basis, trying to understand the 'Eternal Bright Fire Technique' and integrating the two is not a bad idea. "
Nan Yi thought deeply.
He actually has five skills now.
"Dong Zhen", "Full Recovery", "Emperor's Sword", "No Form is the Form", "No Form Wonderful Dharma".
The latter two are to practice the "Little Formless Wonderful Dharma". They can be followed step by step and can directly conclude the method. They are the effects of copying, synchronizing and evolving and simulating respectively.
It can copy the enemy's source energy and synchronize the power of rules, and then evolve spells and simulate magical effects, highlighting a way of giving back to others.
However, during the Qi nourishing period, these three techniques are not easy to use flexibly.
At this stage, Wu Xiang's disciple's style of painting is as follows: No matter how magical your magic is, I will break it with one method - copy and paste, and then the magic will clash, the two will cancel each other out, and no one can do anything to the other.
You have to wait until the transformation stage and add three more spells to realize storage spells, batch pasting, and forced cutting, in order to gain the upper hand in the battle of spells.
However, no matter how magical the Wuxiang Immortal Sect's spells are, they can only be used in the same level of fighting.
But now, what Nan Yi needs to consider dealing with is an unknown number of Xuan-level demon cultivators.
The content that Tao Zhiming taught seriously can only be said to be quite satisfactory, but not outstanding.
So, Nan Yi asked: "Senior Brother Tao, what do you say about the method of teaching according to your heart?"
He looked at Tao Zhiming expectantly and thought to himself: Brother Thigh, please give me some strength.

This chapter is a little bit of an introduction, right?
I don’t mean to mention that the word count is 5k, so I’ll save you 200 words of points, hehe.
