Chapter 571: Old Antiques of the Ming and Qing Dynasties
"Little friend, come with me to the second floor to pick up the magic weapon you have in hand, right?"
After Zhao Xiadong took Jiang Ning to visit the first floor of his Level 3 Immortal Cultivation Hut, he made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Ning and motioned for him to go upstairs. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Okay, there's Elder Lao Zhao. ”
On the first floor of the Xiuxian Cottage, Jiang Ning was eye-opening, because here, Jiang Ning not only directly experienced what is called a 'wide house' (hundreds of square meters in size), but also experienced what is called a 'mansion' (there are all kinds of antique furnishings, jewels, and dazzling)......
What surprised Jiang Ning was that in the immortal cultivation hut of Elder Zhao Xiadong, there were a lot of celebrity ink treasures of the Ming and Qing dynasties, ancient tools, etc., and after talking with Zhao Xiadong, Jiang Ning realized that it turned out that these so-called 'antiques' were all purchased by Elder Zhao Xiadong 'with his own hands'!
At first, Jiang Ning didn't react a little, but then after being reminded by Zhao Xiadong, it suddenly dawned on him, it turned out that Elder Zhao Xiadong, as an immortal cultivator, already had a full five or six hundred years of life.
Jiang Ning pinched his fingers and calculated, the Ming Dynasty was founded in 1368 and experienced the rule of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor of Hongwu, Zhu Di, and Renxuan...... Until Chongzhen hung up in the Ming Dynasty, and then the Qing army entered the customs, Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing...... Until the fall of the Qing Dynasty, then a series of events such as warlord scuffles and so on, and then my great Celestial Empire period, counting now, it is only six or seven hundred years.
But Zhao Xiadong has lived from the Ming Dynasty to the present...... Therefore, as he said earlier, it is not surprising that these antiques, calligraphy and paintings of the Ming and Qing dynasties, including the Republic of China and so on, were all purchased by him.
It has survived from the Ming Dynasty to the present!
Although Jiang Ning has been an immortal cultivator for a short time, he is still in the mortal stage more in terms of ideology and concepts, so when he realized that the white-bearded old man in front of him was an authentic 'antique' who had lived for five or six hundred years, he couldn't help but sigh.
I have seen and heard many 'ancient' stories in books, commentaries, and novels, and this Zhao Xiadong has actually experienced them all, of course, this is not to say that Zhao Xiadong must be in the story, but when this story happened, Zhao Xiadong was a 'party in a broad sense'!
What Emperor Zhengde, Emperor Jiajing, Emperor Wanli, Emperor Tianqi, Emperor Chongzhen, what Wang Yangming, Yu Qian, Zhang Juzheng, Yan Song, Hai Rui, Qi Jiguang......
What Nurhachi, Huang Taiji, Shunzhi Emperor, Kangxi Emperor, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing, Daoguang Emperor, What Aobai, Yu Chenglong, Nalan Mingzhu, Long Keduo, Nian Qianyao, Liu Yong, Ji Xiaolan, He Shen, Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Zhang Zhidong, Liu Mingchuan, Yuan Shikai......
Duan Qirui, Zhang Xun, Cao Kun, Feng Guozhang, Zhang Zuolin, and other famous figures in history, this Elder Zhao Xiadong have all seen him with his own eyes.
From the Ming and Qing dynasties to the present, there have been many major events in history, and this Elder Zhao Xiadong has also seen a lot of them......
Listening to this Elder Zhao Xiadong's eloquent 'experience', Jiang Ning couldn't help but have a strong sense of historical travel!
It wasn't until this moment that Jiang Ning had a further understanding of immortal cultivators, that is, to live a long time!
In the past, when Jiang Ning became an immortal cultivator, it was also in some basic books on immortal cultivation, as well as listening to the gate of immortal cultivation, Zi Ling, Fat Man, Chen Ruoxi and others mentioned that immortal cultivators often lived hundreds of years old, at that time, Jiang Ning didn't feel anything, thinking that immortal cultivators live for a long time, it is not surprising, immortal cultivators, super evolutionary bodies, life level jumps, and it is not surprising that they can live a long time.
However, at that time, Jiang Ning didn't think about 'living for a long time', and now he heard Zhao Xiadong tell him vividly about his experience back then, looking at the 'antiques' in front of him, but he really experienced it, the place where the immortal cultivator's ox fork is, live for a long time, it's really a long time to see!
This elder Zhao Xiadong has seen the emperor, the mother, the concubine, the eunuch, and the famous minister......
To paraphrase a sentence in the peach blossom fan, I saw him rise Zhu Lou, watched him feast guests, and saw his building collapse......
After listening to Elder Zhao Xiadong's account of the events he had experienced one by one, Jiang Ning felt like he was swimming in the historical picture scroll described by the other party, and he had a very special experience.
Although Jiang Ning is a science and engineering man, he has a strong interest in history and humanities, so when he hears Zhao Xiadong's 'hands-on' narration, he listens to it very energetically.
After listening to the other party's story, Jiang Ning carefully tasted it, and after 'jumping out' of the 'true story', he asked Zhao Xiadong an extremely puzzled question, that is-since Elder Zhao and many other people with such magical powers existed as early as the Ming and Qing dynasties and later the Republic of China, then, when I experienced hardships in China, why didn't these people stand up and reverse the historical situation?
Jiang Ning believed that if a Yuan Infant Immortal cultivator like Zhao Xiadong made a move, the suffering and humiliation suffered by Huaxia in history would definitely be reversed, but since there were those suffering and humiliating things in history, it meant that Elder Zhao and his immortal cultivators should not have made a move.
Regarding Jiang Ning's question, Elder Zhao Xiadong only spit out four words from his mouth, which made Jiang Ning sigh, "Heaven is natural!"
Immortal cultivators, cultivating the way of heaven, the path of immortals, is a path beyond the six realms of reincarnation, simply put, immortal cultivators have been out of the category of ordinary people.
"The higher the cultivation, the stronger the strength, looking at ordinary people, the more indifferent, this is like humans looking at ants, ants fighting, ant migration, and so on, will humans stand in the perspective of ants, to help one group of ants fight another group of ants?"
Although Jiang Ning is still a little dissatisfied with Zhao Xiadong's remarks, Jiang Ning can't find any reason to refute Zhao Xiadong at the moment.
"I was born in the Ming Dynasty, and I am an authentic 'Ming Dynasty person', and when I first attained the Tao, I also interfered in the things around me, but as I grew older, with the deepening of cultivation, and with the improvement of the realm, I became more and more indifferent, and even, in the end, I watched Zhu Youzhen hang himself, and watched the descendants of the Zhu family who were not fighting each other in Nanming, I saw it calmly......"
