Chapter 502: The Way of Longevity
Lu Fan heard the screaming behind him, and the smile on the corner of his mouth raised a happy curve.
"Lu Yin!"
Lu Fan murmured.
He had heard of this name. When Wu Kongling introduced the top ten families, Lu Fan recorded the name Lu Yin of the Lu family.
But I didn't expect that Lu Yin was actually a little girl. Sure enough, there was still a big gap between reality and imagination.
Xiaoliu took Lu Fan to the backyard of the Lu family. This time, Xiaoliu did not fool him anymore, and there was indeed a guest room in front of him.
Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Young Master Lu Fan, I was offended just now, so please forgive me. You can stay at the guest room here as you like, and you can stay at any room you want."
Lu Fan nodded and pushed open the door.
Elegant decoration, excellent furniture, and spacious guest rooms are the way to entertain guests.
Lu Fan said with satisfaction: "Well, then I will live here."
Xiao Liu's continuous voices were heard. Suddenly, a sound of poetry and books came not far away. Lu Fan listened with his ears and only vaguely heard someone reciting poetry and books.
Lu Fan smiled and said, "There are people around here to read?"
Xiao Liu smiled and said, "Young Master Lu Fan. Our Lu family members can not learn martial arts, but they can not practice qi. But books must be read. Whether it is a young master or a slave or a servant, at least they have read a bookshelves. Otherwise, they will be kicked out of the Lu family."
Lu Fan said in surprise: "The rules of the Lu family are novel. Can I go and see where you study?"
Xiao Liudao: "Yes. Our Lu family welcomes outsiders to visit the academy. Mr. Lu Fan, please!"
Lu Fan followed Xiaoliu's footsteps and walked all the way to the depths of the house. After passing through a bamboo forest path, a bamboo house came into view.
Three or five children were reciting with books in their arms and shaking their heads. Seven or eight scholars sat alone under the bamboo, savoring the book in their hands.
An old man who looks like a gentleman is giving lectures to more than ten people.
Lu Fan walked a few steps forward and listened quietly.
"Only people in the world love life and hate death, they have the method of immortality. There are two types of methods of immortality, namely, warriors and qi men. In the final analysis, it is just to live longer. The first warrior in the world who practices the Gangjin power will definitely not think that the Gangjin he created will become a more terrifying weapon than weapons in the future. The first qi men in the world who practices the elixir will never guess that the elixir in the future can not only save people, but also harm people."
The old man carried his hands on his back and walked.
Lu Fan was interesting to hear, so he simply sat down next to him.
The old man continued: "However, after millions of years of evolution, today, warriors and qi refiners have completely lost their original intentions. Practicing martial arts is not to strengthen the body, but to kill people only to kill people. Practicing alchemy is not to prolong life, but to strengthen their strength. Therefore, over the past tens of millions of years, warriors and qi refiners have grown countless times, but their lifespan has not increased much, but has been shortened. Ten thousand years ago, the ancient human race had a lifespan of about two hundred, and warriors could reach five hundred, and eating golden elixirs could reach thousands of years. But now, it is difficult to see a hundred-year-old man. There are only a handful of warriors who can reach three hundred years, and there are very few people who can reach five hundred years. Putting the cart before the horse is put, there is no more than this. The children of the Lu family must not make such mistakes. The way of power is ultimately a small way. The great way is immortal!"
A group of children of the Lu family nodded.
Lu Fan smiled and said, "Dare you ask, how can you live forever without strength?"
Immediately, a group of people turned their attention to Lu Fan.
The old man touched his beard and said, "A wise man will live forever."
Lu Fan shook his head and said, "Only those who have wise know the value of power. For example, before natural disasters, ordinary people can only escape in all directions, while warriors can support mountains and rivers."
The old man smiled and said, "A wise man will prevent natural disasters before natural disasters. For example, floods can be built, and droughts can attract rivers and seas. Why fear natural disasters? So what if there are warriors? This young man is not a child of the Lu family."
Lu Fan bowed and said, "Lu Fan, the guest of Prime Minister Lu!"
Hearing Lu Fan's name, the group of people in front of him immediately raised their heads and looked at him with burning eyes.
The old man said, "It turns out that it is Lu Fan, a swordsman in Donghua. The name of the young master has spread throughout the capital. Are you lucky? Please tell me?"
Lu Fan smiled and said, "I am honored."
After saying that, Lu Fan followed the old man into the bamboo house. Outside, a group of Lu family members continued to study.
There are no tables and chairs, only two futons.
Lu Fan sat opposite the old man, and a woman in white next to him immediately filled the two of them with tea.
The old man looked at Lu Fan and smiled and said, "I heard what the young master asked just now, and it seems that he disagrees with the way of immortality."
Lu Fan said: "There are some. As I see, people who live forever must practice martial arts or alchemy. Ordinary people, no matter how much wisdom they are, how long can they live? Therefore, strength is the foundation and everything. The so-called way of immortality is an additional thing. Life is vigorous and vigorous, if it is wonderful, why should we live forever?"
The old man smiled and said, "Listen to Mr. Lu, you will know that Mr. Lu is also a wise man. Mr. Lu, I will only ask one question about what you said. You can tell the realm of a warrior!"
Lu Fan said: "Why don't you know about this? Inner Gang, outer Gang, Yuan Gang, Earth Gang, Tian Gang, and Martial Gang are on the way upwards."
The old man asked again: "Where is Mr. Lu?"
Lu Fan said calmly: "I first entered the Earth Gang Realm."
The old man smiled and said, "At such an age, he can be called a master of talent. Mr. Lu can feel martial arts."
Lu Fan frowned and said, "I don't know what martial arts wise man is referring to?"
The old man said, "It means that the heart of heaven is touching the earth is touching the spirit of earth. Mr. Lu can feel it."
Lu Fan said: "It's been once or twice."
The old man continued: "Does you feel that everything is clear and you can see everything clearly? You feel extremely good and your strength is greatly increased?"
Lu Fan nodded slightly.
The old man smiled and said with a smile: "In this way, Mr. Lu should understand. When a warrior practices to the end, what he cultivates is actually the state of mind. If you practice further, when one day you can enter the Tiangang Realm, you will feel that the whole world is actually suppressing you. Whether it is practicing martial arts or refining alchemy, in the end, it is against the heaven and earth. The so-called enlightenment of the sky and the earth are just illusions. The power you use is just something that the heaven and earth lend you. If it says it, it gives it to you. If it doesn't want to give it to you, it won't give it to you. In the end, it's only your own heart left!"
The old man pointed to Lu Fan's heart.
Lu Fan realized something after hearing it, as if he had grasped something but couldn't grasp it.
The old man paused and then said, "So, the warriors who have passed the Tiangang realm and the qi masters of the immortal qi masters use in the end, but the power condensed from their hearts, plus the rules obtained by comprehending the heaven and earth, and then they become the Tao realm. Where do these powers come from? They are nothing more than human spirit. To put it bluntly, they are human life. Therefore, the way of power is still the way of immortality in the end. If you live for a long time, your strength will be stronger. If you can live longer than this world, you are a new world."
As he said that, the old man gently grabbed an ant from the ground.
"For insects, chickens, ducks, geese and dogs can live for a long time, so insects will think that chickens, ducks, geese and dogs are the heaven. For chickens, ducks, geese and dogs, humans can live for a long time, so humans are the heaven. For humans, heaven and earth can exist for a long time, so heaven and earth become as respected as gods. But what if you live longer than heaven and earth? What will you become?"
Lu Fan's eyes were a little confused. After thinking for a while, Lu Fan said: "So that's the case. Sir, I want to tell me. Don't pursue strength too much. Living is the hard truth!"
The old man laughed and said, "It's already great that you can realize this level. Alas, you are not a member of the Lu family. If you were, I really want to pass on you more things."
Lu Fan said: "Listen to the teacher's words, students will have a lot of insights. Can I come to listen to classes frequently in the future?"
The old man smiled and said, "Of course it's OK."
Lu Fan picked up the teacup and bowed to the old man.
......
All day, Lu Fan listened quietly to the old man.
At night, Prime Minister Lu finally returned to the Lu family from the palace.
There was a faint smile on my face, and it was obvious that this trip had a lot of gains.
"The lucky boy, I didn't expect that His Majesty's expectations for him were so great. Now it depends on whether this boy is successful. As long as he can get a good ranking in the selection, he will become the most dazzling upstart in Wu'anguo. Oh, why didn't I be so lucky at the beginning!"
As he muttered his mouth, Prime Minister Lu slowly walked down from the carriage.
When he returned to the study, Prime Minister Lu called an old man who looked like a housekeeper and said, "How did Lu Fan perform in my Lu family today? What did he do?"
The old housekeeper smiled and said, "Mr. Lu went to Lu Yin's boudoir first, which made Lu Yin lose his temper and smashed several tea bowls."
Prime Minister Lu chuckled and said, "This Lu Yin probably regarded Lu Fan as an imaginary enemy. Well, he probably didn't cheat anyone. So he got angry, and what?"
The old housekeeper continued, "Then Xiaoliu took Lu Fan to the academy according to your instructions. The young man was indeed curious and went to the academy to read it. After listening to Old Bai's theory of immortality, he was completely fascinated and was still listening."
Prime Minister Lu smiled happily and said, "Okay, that's what it means. This boy has more righteousness and lacks flexibility. Let him learn more from Mr. Bai, and it will be of great benefit in the future whether he is in the court or in the world."
The old housekeeper said, "Not only that, he learned the way of immortality of our Lu family. In the future, he would be a member of our Lu family. No matter how bad he is, he owes our Lu family a favor. With this kind of gentlemanly character, he will repay kindness."
Prime Minister Lu picked up the teacup, shook his head and said, "That's the old butler who knows me!"
