"Why not?" Lin Chujin answered with a question, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes, as if Jiang Mubai had asked a very strange question.

It seems that this belongs to the category of common sense in the eyes of Fa Xiu, Jiang Mubai glanced at Song Wenfeng, the chief official who seemed to be outside the world, and stood respectfully with the etiquette of Fa Xiu, stretched his hands forward, and imitated the holy and rich posture of Confucius according to the "Picture of the Holy Ancestor" painted by the Tang Dynasty painting saint Wu Daozi.

This is the "Tuyi, Shiyi, Tianyi, Special, Travel, and Side" in the Tianyi, "Zhouli, Qiuguan, Master of Ceremonies" recorded: Wang Yi Nanxiang saw the princes, Tuyi Shu surname, Shi Yi different surname, Tianyi with the same surname.

Tianyi was originally a way for aristocratic men to treat the same surname, but now it has evolved into a way for Fa Xiu to treat his colleagues, also known as "asking for the Tao ceremony", similar to the martial arts fist salute, which is the etiquette used by Fa Xiu to ask people for advice or discuss the Tao. It is said that the Prayer Ceremony was originally called the Sermon Ceremony because the Dharma Cultivator would perform this Prayer to the audience before the opening of the altar, but later it was changed to the Prayer Ceremony because it was a homonym for "reasoning".

After saluting, Jiang Mubai calmly asked for advice: "Jiang is lonely and unheard, and his knowledge is shallow, please solve your doubts." ”

Seeing that Jiang Mubai was serious, Lin Chujin replied and said: "Cultivating the primordial spirit, you have the ability to control things in the air, which is the most basic and important ability of Fa cultivation. ”

Jiang Mubai nodded slightly and listened carefully.

"But not everything can be controlled by the primordial spirit, which is related to the realm of cultivation, and it is also related to the nature of the item itself."

"For example, when I touch a chalk with my finger, I can float it in the air and I can manipulate it to write on the board in the air. If I change the chalk to a brush, I can't control it freely, because the brush is bigger, heavier, and requires more energy and energy. ”

"If I replace the brush with chalk of the same weight, I can't even control it in the air, because the brush is mostly made of bamboo tubes and the hair of birds and animals, and compared with chalk, the brush is more spiritual."

"More spiritual?" Jiang Mubai couldn't hold back and interjected to ask.

"Everything has a spirit. Of course, the so-called animistic thing is talking about ......"

Halfway through the words, Lin Chujian's face suddenly turned embarrassed, she thought for a moment, remembered the lecture she had attended, and continued: "In the words of Jing'an Jushi, whether there is spirituality or not is actually the difference between organic matter and inorganic matter. ”

What is the difference between organic and inorganic? Jiang Mubai narrowed his eyes and tried to recall, but his chemistry grades never passed, and he only knew that organic matter was a compound containing carbon, mainly composed of carbon elements and hydrogen, but carbon elemental matter and carbon oxides, sulfides, cyanides and many other substances did not belong to organic matter.

What does this have to do with so-called spirituality?

Jiang Mubai thought about it again and again, and did not mention the chemical term, but asked in another direction: "Is Jing'an Jushi's statement accurate?" ”

"Jing An Jushi is the chief professor of the Dharma Seminary of Yedu University, and has devoted himself to academic research for many years, and is now the perfection of the yang god. In addition, both Mr. Shen and Mr. Ji agreed with his discourse on 'spirituality'. Lin Chujin did not give a direct answer, but the tendency between the words was very clear.

The Mr. Shen and Mr. Ji in her mouth are obviously Mr. Shen Da and Ji Yun, the chief of the Supreme Council, and Ji Yun of the Izumo Sword Sect, the two great powers stand at the highest level of Fa Xiu, except for each other, they have no other opponents, and they can be said to be unquestionable authorities in the eyes of Fa Xiu.

The six realms of martial cultivation are enlightenment, quenching the body, forging bones, washing the marrow, inner heaven and earth, and human immortals.

The six realms of Dharma cultivation are enlightenment, gathering qi, passing through the mysteries, yang gods, returning to the void, and joining the way.

Professor Wen's Yang Divine Perfection, which is the pinnacle of the Fourth Realm, can not be wrong with his exposition of 'spirituality' being recognized by the two great powers of the Path.

Jiang Mubai firmly remembered the saying of organic matter and inorganic matter in his heart, nodded and asked, "So, why are spiritual items easier to control?" ”

"We believe that there is energy in the aura, and all spell changes, no, it should be said that all cultivation methods are using spiritual energy, but the ways used are different, so the effects shown are different." Lin Chujin patiently explained the basics first, and then answered the question, "Spiritual things are easy to attach to divine thoughts, so the higher the spirituality of an item, the smaller the consumption of using spiritual energy to manipulate it. ”

In this way, the spirituality of an item affects the efficiency of energy conversion, just as the resistance of a conductor affects the flow of electrons.

Jiang Mubai nodded, thoughtful.

Lin Chujin continued: "Naturally soulless things can also be refined into magic weapons, which requires a lot of time, energy and financial resources to be tempered with true fire and aura. ”

"After the item has spirituality, it is refined into a magic weapon by the caster, and it also needs to be warmed and refined by the owner of the magic weapon, that is, 'refining treasure'. As for the natal magic weapon, it requires the cultivation of the law to invest in the essence of the effort, which costs a lot, but the benefits are not necessarily satisfactory, so many law cultivators are unwilling to refine the natal magic weapon. ”

"I see." Jiang Mubai thought for a moment and muttered in a low voice, "A piece of stainless steel can be made into a long sword or a gun barrel, and the magic cultivation can refine the sword into a magic weapon, and naturally it can also refine the firearm into a magic weapon." As long as there is enough time to refine all the parts, drones can also be refined into magic weapons, and even, tanks, fighters, and missiles can be refined into magic weapons, right? ”

"Maybe it's right, maybe it's not." Lin Chujin blinked, his eyes full of curiosity, "Why did you think of these strange questions?" ”

"Before you arrived, I captured a prisoner, and he turned an automatic pistol into a magic weapon." Jiang Mubai smiled bitterly, thinking of the flying automatic rifle, he still felt afraid.

"I heard that the structure and application principles of weapons in the old era were very complicated, and it was not easy to refine such a magic weapon, and it was not difficult to refine each component one by one, but it was extremely difficult to combine the parts of different attributes into a whole. In the case of the rebels you encounter, it may take several years to refine a pistol, but that doesn't make the bullets fired from the pistol more powerful, and it's better to refine a throwing knife or a box of throwing needles. ”

As he spoke, Lin Chujin shook his head with a smile.

"The monk should return to the power of the universe for himself, and not seek pure destructive power and lethality under the guise of foreign objects, which only a rebel army that admires the technology of the old times would be so persistent."

This sounds seven or eight points similar to the statement that "a warrior should pursue the will of martial arts and should not rely on external objects", Jiang Mubai, as a traveler of the "old era", cannot accept this concept for the time being.

He thought for a while, and then suddenly on a whim, he asked, "If someone refines both guns and bullets into magic weapons, can the bullets he shoots turn around?" ”
