"You say!"
"What is the purpose of your visit to the Summoner's Rift?"
Qin Bing really admired himself, if Xibo said that he was here to steal the secret of the Sage's Ring, then he could justifiably get angry, and then have a bad feeling for it, and then expel it. If Xibo is lying, then follow his words, even if he says that the Qin soldiers who came to sweep the streets will believe it.
As long as you're not looking for someone.
Xibo frowned slightly, this expression was vivid and expressive, even if Qin Bing was not the slightest "interested" in Xibo, he was still touched by his action, and he was inexplicably uncomfortable.
"I came to Summoner's Canyon to find the meaning of life......"
What the? Qin Bing blinked in confusion, looking for the meaning of life, what does this mean?
In his heart, Cang Yuetong quietly explained to Qin Bing: "It is the three questions of philosophy, 'Who am I', 'Where do I come from', and 'Where am I going'. ā
Qin Bing said secretly, isn't this the same as not saying it, it's equivalent to nonsense. However, Qin Bing was a little relieved in his heart, he didn't just look for himself.
"And what is the meaning of your life?"
What is the meaning of my life? Xipo's eyes were slightly confused for a moment, and this was the first time he had a blank expression.
Qin Bing struck while the iron was hot and earnestly taught: "There are many meanings in life, and love is only one of the most insignificant, don't waste your good years on such useless things." Got it? ā
"I understand!" Xibo nodded heavily, "I have experienced all kinds of life, but only love." ā
Qin Bing nodded, "Which girl do you have a crush on, I'll help you come up with an idea." ā
I'll get you any woman, and if she doesn't want to, I'll drug you.
Shaking his head, Hibo shook his head very firmly, "I don't like women. ā
Qin Bing felt that his heart was falling, but he still didn't give up and asked, "Why?" ā
"Because, women are not perfect and have too many flaws."
Ga...... It doesn't seem to be what I thought it would be. So Qin Bing hurriedly asked what the flaws were.
"I have always believed that there are enough men in the world, and the only value of women is to reproduce, and nothing else is useless."
Hey, I'll go, isn't this the sentence "The same sex is true love, and the opposite sex is only for breeding", I didn't expect Xibo to understand this truth.
Xibo continued: "I heard that there is a famous saying in the East, self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world. Self-cultivation is already difficult, and many people have failed to achieve all the results after putting in their lifelong efforts, and it is even more difficult for Qi family. Women will bring troubles and troubles to men, and if there are no women, there will be no troubles of the Qi family, and all the energy can be used on cultivation. Moreover, if you find the destined man, not only will it not bring the troubles of the Qi family, but you can also confirm each other's experience of self-cultivation, and you can help each other 'govern the country and level the world', which is equivalent to saving half of the effort. You say, isn't that the truth? ā
Qin Bing blinked, not knowing how to answer. Cangyue Hitomi was also stunned, what Xibo said was too reasonable, so that he couldn't refute it.
However, Qin Bing also heard that Xipo liked men not as dirty as he imagined, on the contrary, he had a very bright reason. In this way, Qin Bing finally put his mind at ease.
"It seems that you care a lot about cultivation, so why don't you stay in the Tower of Ashes?"
Xibo looked at Qin Bing strangely, "Although the Tower of Ashes has accumulated five thousand years of heritage, in my opinion, it is to keep repeating the theories and practices of predecessors, and it has been circulating for five thousand years, but there is no innovation. ā
So powerful?
Qin Bing's eyes flickered, "The alchemy of the Tower of Ashes is very low-level? No, the Tower of Ashes is rumored to be the pinnacle of alchemy in the Western world. ā
Hibo nodded, then shook his head, "It is indeed the pinnacle of alchemy in the Western world, but the alchemy of the Western world is nothing more than that. ā
Fortunately, West is not here, otherwise he would have to fight hard with Xibo for this sentence.
"Why?"
"Because until today, there is no unified weights and measures in the Western world, and the standards for weight, volume, and temperature in many of their formulations are based on experience and feeling."
Is there such a thing?
Although Qin Bing didn't know alchemy, he had seen the design drawings of the Sage's Ring and knew that it had very strict requirements for the weight, volume, and temperature of all materials.
Oh yes, Qin Bing suddenly realized that the ruler, scale, and thermometer used on his side were all made by Cangyue Pupil, and they all seemed to be obtained from the system.
In the past, Qin Bing didn't care much about these gadgets, because whether he cast bronze or forged iron, he grabbed the material based on experience and feeling, judged the length and so on, and hardly used any measuring tools.
It's not that you don't use it, but there are no tools available, and the so-called ruler moments on the market have a small error, and it is impossible to achieve absolute accuracy. In many cases, tools are not as good as sensory judgments, so the clever casters believe in themselves more.
The heavens are better, at least the royal family has issued a unified weights and measures, and it is one thing for people to use them, but at least there is. The Western world is wonderful, except for the era of King Europa, the Western world has not had a substantial unity at all, and it is impossible to have weights and measures that pass the world, but due to the hostility between various sects, deliberately exclude and create estrangement with the surrounding areas, not only the language barrier, but also the weights and measures are very different.
Half a catty and eight taels is still better, as long as you convert it, you want to scold your mother when you encounter the kind of counting system that even has to change the base system, for example, some places in the Western world are 12 decimal system, 12 things are called a dozen, and 15 decimal system, 60 base system and so on. What's even more infuriating is that from time to time those religions issue an oracle to change the system of weights and measures, and in the end they can't remember which one to use.
This is also the reason why many formulas, reagents, magic, etc. that have been passed down in ancient times have been lost, and the loss of words is only a small part of the reason, after all, many materials can be guessed even if the name has changed, and it is almost the same to guess a few more times.
More reason is that the data involved in it has undergone major changes, even if the weights and measures have changed, the decimal system of the numbers is also confusing, plus some formulas and reagents are deliberately kept secret, and some cores deliberately use hidden words or code words, which is literally impossible to understand.
This is the alchemy of the Western world, which is why alchemy pays special attention to inheritance, because if it is inherited, there will be no such and such troubles, and a lot of unnecessary waste can be saved.
However, even the Tower of Ashes, which has the most complete heritage and the longest history, is "nothing more than that" in the eyes of Hibo, because there is no real "ruler" in the Tower of Ashes. (To be continued.) )
