I suddenly remembered that I had read in a Japanese medicine book that there was another version of their five elements, which used "wind" instead of "gold" and "thunder" instead of "wood".

Master Li thinks that in fact, these words are just a code name, and the specific words used may be different depending on each person's understanding, as long as you understand the relationship between each other. At the same time, he also inadvertently said that this element of wind and thunder is also present in the Chinese Five Elements Doctrine, strictly speaking, they cannot be counted as an element, it should be said that it is a state.

In the case of wind, this state means that the wood is originally earthy, but if the wood is too weak, the soil will also go against the normal state of stability and become a little abnormal, and then the wind will be generated.

Coincidentally, the generation of "wind" that we usually know in the objective world is actually similar to this principle. The energy of the wind generated by the rotation of the earth (earth) would have reached a very destructive level if it had not been restrained by the existence and containment of life represented by plants.

So, if you want to weaken the power of the wind, you should increase the power of the wood. However, there is a characteristic of wood, which likes sparseness rather than denseness, just like a forest that is too densely planted is easy to be blown down by the wind.

Therefore, if you want to strengthen the strength of the wood, the better way is to add water, through the aquatic wood, to promote its natural growth, until it can contain the soil again.

The theory is always too abstract, but think about why many people want to control the desert wind and sand problem in reality, but in the end they will always find that the effect of planting trees alone is not good, and it is also because it is not enough to have trees, and water is needed.

Besides, thunder is also a similar principle, except that it is a reaction in a state where water cannot overcome fire, because clouds are originally water, and the energy in them is fire!

It can be deduced from this that in order to contain the power of thunder, in addition to strong water, gold must be used......

I pondered, and my gaze wandered unconsciously to the windowsill that had been burned last night, and where the candlestick was still visible......

"Ah, is that so! ......" I muttered as I thought about it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Bai Jue suddenly turned around and said, "What are you muttering?" ”

I saw that his face, which was so white that it seemed to be bloodless, suddenly approached, and I jumped up from the chair with a "wow" in fright! It was quite quiet, but everyone seemed taken aback, and their eyes fell on me.

I quickly shrunk my neck, nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you're tired from reading books for so long, I want to help you refresh yourself......"

Where is this apology, it is obviously playing a poor mouth, provoking them to frown and glare! I quickly covered my mouth with my hand, not daring to make any more noise. But the environment, which had been so quiet that the air was about to freeze, was finally revived by the slightest commotion, and everyone began to move a little, feeling that the courtyard had added a lot of life.

Since it has been discovered by Bai Jue, it is naturally inconvenient to read another book with him, I walked to the bookcase, wanting to get another one, and when I turned around and walked opposite Ling Yunyan, she looked at me and was stunned for a moment, and then laughed!

I didn't know why, so I could only look at her blankly, but the more she did, the more she laughed so hard that she covered her stomach with laughter, as if she was in great pain!

Seeing her like this, Zeng Xianyi also walked in front of me to take a look, and actually burst out laughing and said, "What's wrong with your face?" ”

My face? The first reaction was that the fake beard had fallen off? I quickly touched it with my hand, and I didn't seem to think anything abnormal, so I couldn't help but feel even more strange.

Seeing that the big bucket of water that had been brought to us in the morning to wash our faces was still by the door, he walked over and took a look inside.

Ah, I was startled at the sight of myself, and I almost fell back to sit down.

I saw that the face of the person in the water was black and white, ugly like a ghost, and it looked very strange in the shaking of the water shadow, and I almost couldn't recognize that it was me!

How is this going on? I thought about it for two seconds, and then I reacted at once, and when I raised my right hand, I saw that my fingers were all black. I guess it was when I was reading a book just now, and I touched the handwriting on it from time to time, and I rubbed it on my face when I touched it just now.

Quickly jumped up and washed it with a scoop of water, and when washing, I had to be careful not to get off the fake beard, it was really embarrassing.

After a long time of trying to clean my face, I walked to the edge of the bookcase, trying to find two more interesting books to look at, and as soon as I approached the bookcase, a slight smell of ink came to my face.

I also smelled this smell when I came here just now, and I must have smelled ink when I copied the book by hand, so I didn't care about it at the time, but this time, this smell made me think.

If I'm not mistaken, paper has only been invented for too many years in this era, and the books that are a little older should still be bamboo slips, but this box of books is not only made of paper, but the ink in it is relatively new, and it is estimated that they are all newly copied.

I heard that every time the emperor takes office, he does do some work to revise books, but the types of revisions are generally based on historical and political liberal arts books.

But like the books I saw just now, they don't seem to be related to history and politics, but some of them are more scientific, what's going on?

I took out a few more books, roughly flipped through them, and indeed as I judged, they are basically science books, that is, modern chemistry, physics, botany, medicine, and even geography, feng shui, architecture, climatology and other related content, from what I learned before, these scientific things still belong to the category of "carving insect skills" in this era, and they can't be elegant, and the official doesn't seem to pay attention to it.

But when it comes to the theme of this competition, Taoism, it happens to be related to these contents, and the skills that Rui Wei has mastered are probably in this category?

This time I completely understood, this emperor is going to make us have a pastime, it is clearly intentional, these books are not good enough to be specially prepared for this Taoist competition, I want to try the depth of our players, and by the way, I will also make up for the evil, so that everyone can better understand each other's details, and naturally the competition will be more intense, and the infighting will be better.

It's just a superficial guess, and you won't know where his true intentions are until the moment someone wins at the end of the game. In any case, I became more curious about him, this young man who ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, with a prominent position and great responsibilities, but who had survived many years in the struggle between his relatives and eunuchs, and whose spiritual world was so complex that it was probably impossible for us ordinary people to comprehend.

However, judging from the content of the Five Elements Doctrine just now, I wonder if some of the backgrounds of these people here are really in these books! For example, the vicious fight between Chen Yi and Zeng Xianyi last night was not faintly linked to the theory of wind and thunder? So, what about other people's? At this time, I really hate that I don't recognize too many words, and when people feed me ready-made information, I can't open my mouth or swallow it!

So I can only half-read and half-guess, swallow dates, seize all the time to fight with those seal books, and I don't even remember whether I have eaten lunch or not, until it is getting late, and I can no longer read the words on the book.

As soon as I stood up and wanted to pull down the candlestick on my windowsill, and find a new candle to insert it so that I could continue to look at it, the door creaked open, and the old eunuch brought a few little eunuchs in, and looked around at the people in our courtyard, as if after confirming that all of them were still alive, and said to us in an unquestioning commanding tone: "Get up and follow me at once, and the game will begin immediately!" ”
