30. Fool the emperor

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation...... Emperor Longzheng silently recited these words in his heart several times. Ask the details one by one: Why do you press on the chest? Why blow into your mouth?

Yuan Chun answered one by one: the chest compression is to make the heart beat again, and only when there is a heartbeat can there be a pulse; Blowing into the mouth is to use external force to blow the "clean air" into the drowning person's body, and then bring out the "turbid qi" in the body.

Faced with an ancient person who had no chemical foundation, Yuan Chun really didn't know how to explain what oxygen and carbon dioxide were, so he used "inhaling clear air" and "exhaling turbid air" to explain human breathing.

"Qingqi? Turbidity? Emperor Longzheng asked curiously, "What do you mean?" "I have only heard of the opening of the world, the clear air rises, and the turbid air sinks.

"Between heaven and earth, the pure qi does not rise, and the turbid qi does not sink, but is intertwined and mixed together, constantly flowing. Whether it is a person, a variety of birds, fish and insects, every time you breathe, you must inhale clear air and exhale turbid air. ”

Emperor Longzheng thought about it and felt that there was a contradiction in it: "Since people exhale turbidity, what is blown into the mouth of the drowning person is also turbidity." What good would it do her to blow turbidity into the drowning person's body? ”

Yuan Chun said with a smile: "Because the human body is not very greedy, it will not take all the pure qi that is inhaled into the lungs into the body. Generally speaking, only a small part of the pure qi inhaled into the body will be left in the body, and most of the pure qi will be exhaled along with the turbid qi expelled from the body. So even if it is exhaled, there is a lot of clear air, which is enough for the drowning person. ”

Emperor Longzheng nodded suspiciously, and continued to look for loopholes in Yuan Chun's words: "Since people and all kinds of birds, fish, and insects have to inhale and exhale turbid qi, how much clear qi can be used in heaven and earth?" With so much turbid breath exhaled, isn't this world getting more and more filthy? ”

Yuan Chun replied like a stream: "Your Majesty, heaven and earth have their own way of balance. Clear gas can change into turbid gas, and turbid gas can naturally become clear air. ”

"Oh? How does the turbid gas become clear air? Emperor Longzheng praised him very enthusiastically.

"It's a simple matter, but it relies on the power of creation. The green leaves of various flowers, trees, duckweed, and algae can turn turbidity into clear air under the sun's rays. So where the vegetation is flourishing, the air is always exceptionally fresh. Where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, there will be green trees and basil. If too many trees are cut down in the forest, the area will be less clean, more and more dry and rainless, and the soil will gradually evaporate, making the land more and more barren. The beautiful mountains and rivers will gradually become poor mountains and bad waters......"

There are nine truths and one falsehood in her words. It would be nice if the emperor could be fooled into paying attention to greening, cutting less trees, and planting more trees.

"You just said ...... 'air', what is that?" Emperor Longzheng caught an unfamiliar word.

Yuan Chun stretched out his hand and waved his palm gently: "We seem to be empty in front of us, but in fact we are covered with all kinds of qi that cannot be seen by the human eye, including clear qi, turbid qi, water qi, and light qi (1) and Sui qi that are not beneficial or harmless to people. Together, these gases are collectively referred to as air. The air is ethereal and will not stop flowing, this is the wind; When the palace maid fanned it, it accelerated the flow of air and artificially created wind. The wind blows on the body and feels cold because the wind takes away the heat from the body; If the wind blows too much, the skin will dry out because the wind takes away the moisture from the body and skin......"

Emperor Longzheng and Hong Zhuo, Shi Zhong and others who followed behind were all stunned.

"If the wind is the result of the movement of air, what about the rain? What about Ray? What about electricity? Do the legendary four gods of wind, rain, thunder and lightning exist zĂ i? Does Heavenly Court exist in zĂ i? Emperor Longzheng asked in a muttered voice.

Yuan Chun said in his heart: Oops, it's too high! It's not good to subvert the emperor's three views too much!

Hurriedly came back again: "Whether the four gods of heaven and wind, rain, thunder and lightning exist, the fairy did not inform Weichen, so the minister did not know." The fairy passed on medical skills, clear air, turbidity, air, and wind, but he mentioned it by the way when explaining cardiopulmonary resuscitation, how could he tell Wei Chen, a worldly person, the real heavenly machine? In recent months, the minister has sometimes wondered: If the wind is the result of the movement of the air, then who makes the air flow? ”

Yuan Chun thought: This rhetoric must be able to come back, right? Thinking about the gravitational force of the year, I also encountered the interrogation of the first driving force!

Emperor Longzheng thought about it carefully, and nodded secretly in his heart: That's right! Even if the wind is the result of the movement of air, who makes it flow?! There is no doubt that it will be a god! I didn't realize at all that I, a believer who "didn't say anything, was confused", but at this time I was firmly believing in the existence of immortals.

He still instinctively felt that the topic was a bit dangerous, so he silently stopped.

Yuan Chun didn't say much, and followed the emperor silently, and he could also pay attention to the surrounding scenery distractedly.

They had already walked to the feng shui corridor between the east and west pools of Yanqing.

The straight-line distance between the two ends of this corridor is about forty or fifty meters, but because the bridge creates the style of a nine-curved corridor, the actual length is estimated to be hundreds of meters. The width of the water corridor is also very impressive, Yuan Chun is five to six meters wide, and it is definitely possible to put two tables of mahjong side by side without hindering.

Yuan Chun secretly sighed at the royal luxury: How much silver does it cost to build such a covered bridge? If you have this money, you might as well bury it in the ground, and maybe in a few years you will grow a silver tree and bear some silver fruit.

In the core of the Linfeng Shui Corridor, there is a sandalwood table with some fruits, snacks and tea on the table, and a sandalwood chair next to the table.

Emperor Longzheng sat down on the sandalwood chair and pointed to a drum stool opposite: "Jia Shangyi should also sit!" ”

After Yuan Chun thanked him according to the etiquette, he sat down on the drum bench upright.

Emperor Longzheng waved his hand around: "You guys stand down!" I and Jia Shangyi, talk alone. ”

The emperor likes to call his courtiers "Xqing", but Yuan Chun is a woman. The name between men and women is "Xqing", which seems to be a bit ambiguous. Emperor Longzheng thought of the strange rules of the Yuanchun Division, and cautiously referred only to "Jia Shangyi" - before, Emperor Longzheng had never had to worry about how to call a female official.

When the people around him retreated far away, Emperor Longzheng said sternly: "I heard your grandfather relate the matter of your encounter with immortals. But now, I want to hear you say it in person. Let Yuan Chun say it in front of him once, and he can make some basic judgments from Yuan Chun's expression and tone when he narrates.

Yuan Chun was thinking: This feng shui corridor has a wide view, but it is a good place to talk about confidential matters, and there is no need to worry about the wall having ears.

She began to narrate the set of immortal events she made up from the beginning. While the emperor listened carefully, he would also ask a few questions from time to time.

"What is the place of the Lotus World?" The emperor asked.

The fairy didn't elaborate. But Chen thought that Buddhism has three thousand worlds and hundreds of millions of small worlds, and maybe the Lotus World is one of the big worlds. ”

When he heard Yuan Chun say that "the Lotus World has always been monogamous, and both husband and wife need to guard each other like jade", Emperor Longzheng was extremely puzzled and asked: "Why does the Lotus World have such strange rules?" ”

When questioning, he looked at Yuan Chun's expression carefully, wanting to find a clue from Yuan Chun's expression.

In the heart of Emperor Longzheng, men have always been inferior to women, and husbands have always been wives, and the three outlines and five constants have long been soaked into his bone marrow and soul.

But now, a person who "meets an immortal", the hometown of the immortal he meets has such rules that completely subvert his common sense, making him feel that the whole world has a sense of absurdity and unreality! If he was in the world of Yuan Chun's previous life, he could know that there was a simple word to describe this feeling: the three views had collapsed!

Regarding Emperor Longzheng's question, Yuan Chun had already said: "The fairy didn't say why. But the minister thinks that even in our world, it is also ten miles of different winds and hundreds of miles of different customs. The Lotus World is separated from us by a big world, and there are such strange customs...... It's not hard to understand. ”

Reasonable!

Emperor Longzheng nodded silently in his heart, but he was still trying to find the flaws in Yuan Chun's words: "But as the saying goes: follow the customs of the country." You haven't entered the Lotus World yet, and you're still in our world, why do you have to abide by the rules of the Lotus World in advance? ”

Yuan Chun smiled: "Because the fairy said: this is the bottom line that cannot be broken." In our world, men have three wives and four concubines, and treat women as crops, which is something that people in the Lotus World will never tolerate. Therefore, from the time I became her registered disciple, I needed to keep this rule of the Lotus Realm. Other rules can be slowed down a little, and it will not be too late for me to abide by them when I reach the Lotus Realm. ”
