"Have you really mastered this old-era thing?" Qin Cheng rushed over and looked at the clear handprints on the thick tree trunk with surprise.
The records of the techniques of the old era scattered among old papers, from physical techniques to meditation, to Qi collection techniques, internal nourishment techniques, etc., are quite scattered.
Nowadays these are called Sanjutsu, and many people call them Old Techniques.
Although Qin Cheng has been in contact with it all these years, he still has doubts deep down in his heart. Can he really succeed?
Wang Xuan's performance greatly touched him. His flesh and blood palm could actually leave clear fingerprints on a thick and hard tree trunk. The old technique... really had a way to go?!
"According to the old times, these things about me are nothing." Wang Xuan shook his head. He was very handsome and seemed to be covered with a faint white mist under the bright moonlight.
Qin Cheng sighed: "Don't compare it with the past. I never believed it at all. In fact, many of those records have been falsified long ago."
Qin Cheng is also practicing old techniques. He knows how difficult it is. Just some meditation techniques are enough to cause schizophrenia.
Today, with the close connection with the new stars, and the brilliant deep space technology, how many people still believe in these? Their hearts are already shaken even before they practice.
However, it was against this background that when Wang Xuan, Qin Cheng and others first entered the university, someone approached them and asked them if they were willing to conduct research related to the old arts.
Wang Xuan had been exposed to Sanju before and was immediately interested and agreed on the spot.
As for Qin Cheng, he didn't believe this at all. It was only later that he heard that this research was related to some chaebols and that a large amount of money had been invested, so he was surprised and joined in with the attitude of giving it a try.
In the early days, while they were studying the original professional courses in their own departments, they also used their spare time to participate in the so-called "old technology research."
They discovered that the so-called research was actually mainly about letting them practice by themselves.
And some people began to prepare special food for them, all in order to better practice certain Sanju.
They felt more and more that this "research" was not simple. The two old professors who taught them Sanshu were actually transferred from Xinxing.
Soon, some people couldn't hold on anymore and quit voluntarily, because practicing the old skills was very hard and quite boring.
The most important thing is that in today's era, people are skeptical of the magic in the old paper piles of the past.
However, although there are many people quitting, there are even more new ones joining.
Because there was support from the chaebol behind it, a large amount of money was invested in this "research", and efforts were made to select more suitable people to participate.
It is carried out not only in this city, but also in various places in the old land, mainly for students in colleges and universities. In order to mobilize enthusiasm, there are generous salary incentives.
There were a lot of people who signed up at the beginning, but after large-scale selection and elimination for more than half a year, only about fifty people were left.
Most of these people have transferred schools and gathered in the same university where Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng were. While continuing their original majors, they also formed an "Old Technique Experimental Class".
Not everyone is like Wang Xuan, who initially joined out of interest.
Those who transfer here have been promised that after graduation, they will at least be guaranteed a decent job with a high salary.
At this point, everyone realizes that this "research" is very unusual, otherwise why would it take so much effort to conduct it?
The "old arts textbooks" in the experimental class all have some origins, including unique copies from museums, rare collections from chaebols, and scriptures from certain religions.
For example, a certain internal cultivation method was very famous in the old times, but was eventually lost.
A few years ago, someone discovered it in a tomb and brought it to light. Now it has been sorted out and become one of the study materials of the experimental class.
In addition, the diet of all students in the old arts experimental class has been prepared by special personnel and is very particular.
As they learned more about it, many people were surprised that some of the ingredients were extremely precious and rare. They were difficult to obtain in the old lands and were transported from deep space.
The old professor who taught them the art of gas collection once lamented that these ingredients were prohibitively expensive even in Xinxing, let alone transported from deep space.
There are some ingredients that you can't buy even if you have money.
Some of these ingredients are produced in the Xinxing Deep Sea and have anti-aging effects, some can greatly replenish blood, and some can keep people energetic.
For people who practice various Sanjutsu, dietary supplements are very important.
An old professor once said that certain ingredients are popular with some older people with amazing backgrounds, because they can delay aging.
It can be seen how much attention is paid to the "research on old techniques" this time.
What was especially surprising was that not long after, more than twenty new students from Xinxing joined the experimental class.
Students from the old school have always yearned for new stars and hoped to study abroad, but this time it was the other way around.
With the arrival of these young men and women, some gossip gradually spread, allowing the students in the old arts experimental class to gradually learn part of the truth.
"Some organizations, some research institutions, and some plutocrats are pursuing immortality!"
At first, these words really caused quite a shock in the old art experimental class, and many people were shocked.
In the eyes of modern people, that kind of pursuit is ridiculous and illusory.
However, through the ages, it seems that everyone who has reached the corresponding height has been diligently pursuing it.
As early as the pre-Qin era, legends about immortals, alchemists and other legends have aroused the admiration of future generations, and even kings are not exempt from vulgarity.
However, from Emperor Qin to Emperor Wu of Han, and then to other successors, they all failed. If they could not seek the elixir of longevity, it was impossible for anyone to succeed.
In today's era, so-called myths have long been falsified. How can they exist?
However, it happened that the bright new star of science and technology came with such news.
"To be precise, it is the elders and powerful figures in certain chaebols who want to have a longer life span."
Although someone made supplements, it still caused an uproar in the experimental class.
History is always surprisingly similar. Throughout the ages, some big figures entering their old age seem to be unwilling to do so. They long for youth and a vigorous body.
Back then, Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng whispered and arranged for those big shots.
"Old men are declining day by day, so they naturally crave youth, otherwise how can they appreciate beautiful women? They have hundreds of millions of dollars, but they can no longer squander it. If it were me, I would also like to live another five hundred years!"
"Old ladies are definitely more ruthless than old men. Their time has passed, and their former beauty is now covered with wrinkles. For strong women who have a lot of resources and a strong voice, old age is definitely a natural enemy! If there is a chance, the old man
Ladies must be crazier than old men and will try their best to regain their youth!"
At that time, several young men and women from Xinxing all rolled their eyes after hearing the two men's whispers, because it seemed to involve some of their elders.
