As of 2620, the entire society has completed the recovery of cultivation civilization, and there are still 430 million people in the entire Huaxia region. Many young people, regardless of whether they have cultivation qualifications or not, have learned ancient martial arts or Qi refining methods, starting from the third grade of elementary school.
There have been courses in this area since the beginning, just like learning English back then. Every high school entrance examination and college entrance examination have relevant test content, and there are even some special high schools in various regions, so many cultivators were born.
Although the number of Jindan Zhenren is still limited, there are countless innate monks. Most of them are still in the tenth level of martial arts, or the level of Qi refining.
The entire society is like a pyramid, with lower-level monks having the largest population.
At the same time, technological civilization has not been abolished, and all the cars running on the street are powered by nuclear power.
The Lu family leads the trend of the times in many aspects and can be regarded as an ever-lasting family.
In recent years, the "Kunlun Spiritual Wine" brewed by Lu Xuanpu has become one of the best in the world. Ordinary people can drink it to extend their lives, and cultivators can improve their spiritual power. Each bottle sells for ten times as much as Moutai.
Yan Yuming opened a tea garden in the Kunlun Mountains and cultivated a variety of good teas, including nourishing tea, forgetfulness tea, qi-tonifying tea, blood-nourishing tea, aphrodisiac tea, Laodang Yizhuang tea, and beauty-not-aging tea. Some varieties have just been developed.
It is still being cultivated and improved. Some teas have already gained popularity and are more expensive than Dahongpao, Jinguagong, and the highest-grade Pu'er tea.
The "primary rune alloy sword" developed by Lu Songxi has been promoted to the world of cultivation and is also a magic weapon favored by some core combatants in the army, police, Fuhu Pavilion, and Jianglongyuan. Unfortunately, rune swords are expensive and the country does not have the financial resources to provide them.
Each soldier is equipped with one.
The most noteworthy thing is the elixir developed by Lu Xuge and Qiu Yingxue. The Jinjie elixir they refined is highly praised by the cultivation world. Many monks have taken the Jinjie elixir and successfully advanced, saying that it is worth the money and has better effects than
Other elixirs are much stronger.
In order to advance to the golden elixir, some sects have self-made elixirs, such as Shaolin Temple's Dahuan Dan, Wudang Sect's "Xingxuan Dan", and Emei Sect's "Bodhi Forgetting Pill". The effects of these elixirs are far inferior to those of immortals.
The golden elixir sold in the temple.
In addition, the "black box" created by Lu Xiuzhu that can improve the level of the spiritual field is also very attractive.
His "Spiritual Soil Laboratory" employs hundreds of scientists and often produces new results. Recently, he is studying a "spiritual insect of the genus Earthworm" that can absorb spiritual energy from the air and spit out mucus that penetrates into the soil.
It can enhance the spiritual power of the soil.
The topic he is working on is more interesting, "Research on the Spirit-Gathering Gene of Spiritual Insects." If the research is successful, it may be transferred to humans, so that people without cultivation qualifications can also taste the benefits of cultivation.
In 2620, Lu Xiuzhu was 60 years old and still living alone.
His family wanted to arrange a blind date for him, but he refused.
According to her grandmother Yan Yuming, Shen Qing'an's cultivation method comes from the Putuo sect. She has not learned runes and witchcraft. Even if she marries into the Lu family, she will not be able to serve as the twelfth generation mistress of the Lu family.
Lu Xiuzhu doesn't care. In his opinion, it doesn't matter whether his future wife is a mistress or not. Anyway, the Lu family already has many old ladies who have experienced rigorous training. They can be asked to work two more years.
He doesn't care, but his family does.
On May 5 of this year, my mother Guo Hongxiu made a special trip to Mount Putuo.
Guo Hongxiu stood outside the mountain gate, showing the pressure of Zhenren Jindan.
The female disciple guarding the gate quickly went up to report that a Jin Dan with "malicious intentions" had come from outside the mountain!
Shen Qing'an came out to check and found a female cultivator with a spring breeze on her face. She was beautiful, dignified and elegant. She couldn't help but look back at the female disciple and thought to herself: "Is this what you call 'with bad intentions?'" She put her palms together and saluted: "I have seen a real person. Where does the real person come from?"
Guo Hongxiu smiled and said: "I am Lu Xiuzhu's mother. I come to talk to you."
Shen Qing'an was surprised and at a loss for a moment: "Ah? Is it you, the old man?"
"What? Aren't you welcome?"
"Welcome, welcome! Please come into the nunnery to talk."
Shen Qing'an carefully led the way up Mount Putuo and came to the Zen monastery where he practiced. He made tea himself and put it on the coffee table.
Guo Hongxiu asked: "How many disciples are there in Mount Putuo now?"
Shen Qing'an replied: "There are eight hundred people in total."
"Are you the sect leader? Or is there someone else?"
"I will temporarily take over the position of Mountain Lord."
"I just walked around Mount Putuo, and my impression was pretty good. The environment is quiet and the aura is not weak. There is a purple bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain. I wonder who planted it?"
"The purple bamboo forest has a long history. I don't know when it came into existence. My late master said that although the purple bamboo forest was dense in the early years, each purple bamboo was not very tall. Later, after the spiritual energy recovered, the purple bamboo grew taller and taller, and the branches
The leaves are lush and airtight, and it seems to be a natural magic circle, blocking the sea monster from outside the mountain gate."
Guo Hongxiu said: "Putuo Mountain is a famous Buddhist pure land. Unfortunately, due to climate warming, the sea level has risen, and hundreds of miles around have turned into a vast ocean. Due to the decline in population, the popularity has not flourished. Am I right?"<
/p>
Shen Qing'an nodded: "Yes, you are right. If it were not for maintaining the thousand-year Taoist tradition and leaving a piece of pure land to the world, I might have given up."
Guo Hongxiu looked at her and said: "I will call you Miss Shen according to the common title. My son is sixty years old and has always missed you. I only have one son. I came here this time just to ask you what you think of him."
What do you think? Do you want to marry him? When can you marry him?"
Shen Qing'an lowered his head, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, took a deep breath, then raised his head and said: "Can you give me a few minutes? I want to find a suitable successor and then leave here?"
Guo Hongxiu said: "I will give you a hundred years, is that enough?"
Shen Qing'an said: "That's enough! If the golden elixir is not cultivated within a hundred years, then we, the Putuo Sect, should close our doors."
"Then it's settled? Don't regret it in front of the Buddha! Otherwise, not only will you not become a Buddha, but you will also fall into the Avici Hell."
"I will never regret it. My master said back then that I should have a marriage before my fate is over. Xiuzhu and I have feelings. More than thirty years ago, I was only 22 years old, at the age of a flower, with a pure mind.
I had no worries and my heart was pinned on him. On the eve of my graduation from college, I asked him in the dim night if he would marry me? If he wanted to marry me, I could marry him right away! But he said that according to family rules, no
After entering the golden elixir, I couldn't get married, so I reluctantly left and returned to Putuo Mountain to practice meditation."
After hearing this, Guo Hongxiu's face became angry: "What a broken rule! If there was no such rule, you two would have gotten married early, and my grandson would have gone to college!"
She was originally dissatisfied with her son's insistence on marrying a "nun" from Mount Putuo, but now that she had a conversation with Shen Qing'an and knew the whole story, she felt relieved
