Qin Feng found that he really had no secrets in front of Qin Dongyuan, and his knowledge in the outside world that exceeded this dimension for nearly a hundred years was of no use.
"Elder Dongyuan, how did you see it?"
Qin Feng asked unwillingly. Although he exposed many flaws, Qin Dongyuan must know something, otherwise he would not mention the outside world rashly.
"Cultivate your body first and cultivate your mind first. What you say is half truth and half false. You can see it from your heart."
Qin Dongyuan did not have a proud look on his face, but continued: "I have spent ten years searching for the whereabouts of your ancestors, but I have found nothing, so I believe they must have left this place..."
"Cultivation of one's body and mind first, could it be that...you have mastered his mind?"
Qin Feng was startled by Qin Dongyuan's first words, but he didn't pay much attention to what Qin Dongyuan said next, because Qin Feng was sure that his ancestors who escaped from the Qin capital must have gone to the outside world.
"I can't say that he has a clear mind. I can only tell the truth of your words..." Qin Dongyuan shook his head and said, "As for what you are thinking, I don't know."
"That's not bad, otherwise you would really become a god." After hearing Qin Dongyuan's words, Qin Feng took a breath. It would be really scary if he faced someone who knew what he was thinking.
"When you reach the stage of transformation, in addition to being able to seek good luck and avoid bad luck, you will also have some similar feelings."
Qin Dongyuan said: "Qin Feng, I want to know, what kind of world is it outside? If we go out, will we be rejected by the mainstream world there?"
Even though Qin Dongyuan has already participated in nature, he is still full of curiosity about the unknown world outside. There is still a desire to get out in his heart.
"outside world?"
Qin Feng smiled bitterly when he heard this. He remembered a lyric, that is, "The world outside is wonderful, but the world outside is also helpless..."
"Science and technology are very advanced outside. Human beings landed on the moon by spacecraft decades ago..."
Qin Feng thought for a while, summarized the major events outside, and said: "Conflicts between countries are still there, and there are still wars in some areas. Moreover, national martial arts have declined, and no one practices kung fu anymore..."
The direct consequence of the power of technology is the degradation of human hands-on ability. Let alone martial arts practitioners outside, many traditional crafts are facing the dilemma of being lost.
"How...how could it be like this?"
After listening to Qin Feng's general explanation of the situation outside, Qin Dongyuan shook his head repeatedly and said: "Giving up the pursuit of one's own strength and blindly pursuing strange and obscene skills. Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"
"Elder Dongyuan, everything has pros and cons."
Qin Feng sighed and said: "The world today is no longer the era when generals killed the enemy's heads out of millions of troops. Personal force has no effect in a modern war...
Just like the weapons you saw before, in the hands of an ordinary person, they can kill countless masters of Ming Jin and even Dark Jin. Just imagine in this situation. Who is willing to practice martial arts for many years?"
Qin Feng's words well explain the reasons for the decline of national martial arts.
The term "Xia uses martial arts to break the ban" is completely inapplicable in modern times. There is a popular jingle among the people, that is: no matter how high the martial arts is, you are still afraid of the kitchen knife, no matter how good the kungfu is, you can be knocked down by a brick.
Of course, the description of kitchen knives and bricks is a bit exaggerated, but if they were replaced by guns, I believe even Qin Dongyuan would not deny the fragility of kung fu in front of them.
"Then... do you think we still need to go out?"
Qin Dongyuan hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's really hard here. If we can re-establish trade relations with the outside world, everyone's life will be better..."
In fact, although the land in this space is barren, more than a thousand years ago, the total population here was only more than 10,000, and it was still possible to live very well.
But with the explosive growth of population, the problem of insufficient food has become prominent. Now every year, many people will die due to hunger, even the Qin family is no exception.
"This place must not be discovered by the outside world."
Qin Feng shook his head and said: "You should know that the currency outside is gold. If the secret of this space is leaked, it will bring you a disaster."
Gold, a precious metal, is not only a strategic material for various countries, it is also used in many industries. No amount of gold is enough for the outside world to consume.
Therefore, Qin Feng can imagine that if this space is exposed to outsiders in China, then the oil war in Iraq may be replicated into a golden war and be staged on Chinese soil.
And Qin Feng can be sure that if this space appears, it will be 100% exposed, because the large population here cannot be concealed at all, and they don't know what to say and what not to say.
It can be said that the five major clans have not been able to find a way out for so many years, which is not a good thing for this world.
"They are all descendants of the Yan and Huang people. They shouldn't be able to kill people, right?" Qin Dongyuan's expression changed and he said, "In the worst case, we will open up the gold mines here and let other countries exploit them..."
Gold is really worthless here. Qin Dongyuan just wants to use the gold in this space to exchange for supplies necessary for survival outside, so that the people here can live a better life.
"Elder Dongyuan, this is impossible!"
Qin Feng gave up Qin Dongyuan's dream with just one sentence, "If the war starts, I'm afraid a few atomic bombs can completely wipe out the world, and no one will survive..."
Qin Feng was not trying to scare Qin Dongyuan. If the United States, Britain and other countries knew about the gold reserves here, and if they couldn't get it, they would probably use nuclear weapons to attack this space.
"Can one bullet kill millions of people?" Qin Dongyuan was frightened by Qin Feng's words.
"It's not a bullet, it's an atomic bomb..." Qin Feng was speechless for a while. He gave Qin Dongyuan a rough explanation of the harm caused by that weapon in Japan.
"Then... forget it then. It's too dangerous outside."
Hearing Qin Feng's explanation, Qin Dongyuan couldn't help but feel a little horrified, and with his cultivation, he had long been accustomed to having life and death in his own hands. He would rather not go out than try the power of those weapons.
"Elder Dongyuan, you ask so many questions, do you have a way out?" Qin Feng's eyes narrowed. He was also a very smart person, and he had already noticed something from Qin Dongyuan's questions.
"I do not know what to do!"
Qin Dongyuan said simply: "If I could go out, I would have gone out a long time ago. If I can't afford to offend the police and the like outside, why can't I afford to hide?"
"I don't believe it. If Elder Dongyuan can't do anything, then I'm afraid no one can get out." Qin Feng stared into Qin Dongyuan's eyes. He knew that with Qin Dongyuan's identity and state of mind, he would not bother to lie.
"I really can't help it."
Qin Dongyuan smiled bitterly and said: "But I have checked many classics left by the royal family of Qindu. This method of going out has something to do with the blood of your royal family."
"What does going out have to do with blood?" Qin Feng was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
"I don't know..." Qin Dongyuan shook his head and said, "It seems that only people with your bloodline can open the way from this world to the outside world..."
"This...isn't this a fantasy?" Qin Feng said: "Elder Dongyuan, do you know how to open it? Do you want me to put a few kilograms of blood as a sacrifice?"
Qin Feng was already a little angry when he said this. This old guy had tricked him into saying so many things, but when it came to the most critical moment, he actually couldn't explain himself clearly.
"Qin Feng. I really don't know, but when I was reading classics before, one of them seemed to have mentioned it vaguely."
Qin Dongyuan said helplessly: "If you really want to go out, I will open the library in the clan and let you go in and look. Maybe you can find some clues."
"Library Pavilion?" Qin Feng nodded and said, "I will go. I am also more interested in what happened decades ago."
When the topic changed, Qin Feng tilted his head and looked at Qin Dongyuan and said, "The Qin family was considered disloyal to the royal family at the beginning. Aren't you afraid of my revenge?"
Qin Dongyuan's performance made Qin Feng a little puzzled, because if it weren't for what the five major clans did back then, he might be the emperor of this space now. In any case, the Qin clan would have to bear certain responsibilities.
"You're not that kind of person."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Qin Dongyuan laughed and said: "Although you concealed something when you spoke, you are open-minded and not the kind of person with a strong sense of revenge. I am relieved to hand over the Qin family to you..."
When someone reaches Qin Dongyuan's level of cultivation, he will have many supernatural powers that he cannot explain clearly. His sensitivity is far beyond that of ordinary people. Anyone who wants to lie, conceal or reveal malicious intentions in front of him will be noticed by him.
"Leave the Qin family to me?"
Qin Feng waved his hands repeatedly and said: "The royal family is gone a long time ago. There is no need to rebuild the royal family. I just want to find a way out and return to the life I am familiar with..."
In the past, Qin Feng was just worried about his missing little sister, but now that he has a lover, he has an additional concern. What's more, Qin Feng believes that his parents are not dead, and he needs to go out to find out.
Qin Dongyuan said seriously: "I have read a book written decades ago, which says that everyone should respect their own choices, so no matter what happens to you in the future, Qin will support you unconditionally!"
"Books from decades ago? You may be talking about the Republic of China period."
Qin Feng couldn't help laughing, "At that time, although the warlords were fighting and the people were struggling to survive, their minds were really open. The so-called "everyone" in modern China also appeared at that time..."
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now."
Qin Feng looked up at the looming city wall in the distance and said, "Let's get rid of that King Zhao first, otherwise the nightmare of war brought about by modern weapons will haunt many people for the rest of their lives..."
