558th Wave (5)

He Wuji and Lu Xun's maritime hegemony is based on the ocean demon clan.

Unless there is the ability to eradicate the racial superiority of the Sea Demon Race, there is no solution to this problem. It was also considering that the Absolute Holy Gate could not miss the characteristic voyage of the thousand-year-old killing world, so Wei Dongsheng rushed to Sima Jin Kingdom to personally investigate the truth of the piracy incident. Only by figuring out why He Wuji and Lu Xun drove the Ocean Demon Clan can they hope to fight their maritime hegemony.

Before that, the Absolute Holy Gate could only delay the Dongjiang and Guangzhou merchants with negotiation tactics.

In order to resist the maritime hegemony of the two merchant groups, the Absolute Holy Gate recently had no choice but to close the country and prohibit the people of various states and counties from trading directly with them. In the past few years, the Absolute Holy Gate has successively established the Qinghai Foreign Trade Group in Qingzhou, the Jihai Foreign Trade Group in Jizhou, the Youhai Foreign Trade Group in Youzhou, and the Anxi Foreign Trade Group in Anxizhou, which is fully responsible for the foreign maritime trade of all states and counties of the Absolute Holy Gate Alliance. The Gate of the Absolute Holy Sect hoped to divide the members of the Dongjiang and Guangzhou trade groups by controlling the import and export trade.

Unfortunately, these strategies have not worked so far.

Today, a few years later, the maritime trade of the Absolute Holy Gate Alliance has stagnated, but the coastal counties radiated by the Dongjiang and Guangzhou merchant groups are rapidly sailing towards the maritime age. For example, Dongyang County in front of you, even if it is far away from the harbor coast, you can quietly enjoy the convenience of marine transportation. The treasures of Africa, the treasures of the Middle East, the treasures of India, and the exotic treasures of the South Seas can all be found in the small county town. Even natural science books such as "Yin and Yang Charges", "Summary of Fluid Dynamics", and "Basic Applications of Calculus: Mechanics and Reiki Mechanics" published by the Absolute Gate Alliance can be easily purchased.

Walking slowly for a while, Wei Dongsheng suddenly looked at a middle-aged man in Confucian clothes.

Many years ago, Zhuhoumen invented the assassination technique to hide his whereabouts. After nearly two hundred years of development and refinement, the Concealment Technique and the Reconnaissance Technique have become more and more mature. Generally speaking, with a difference of 3 levels in the level of the Immortals, they can perfectly hide their whereabouts or see through the opponent's concealment technique. Taking Wei Dongsheng's 14th cultivation as an example, except for a few exceptions, he could see through all the hiding techniques of level 11 immortals and below, while level 11 immortals could not see through Wei Dongsheng's concealment.

This middle-aged Confucian priest performed the Concealment Technique, and his real cultivation was level 8, but he was shown to be a level 5 immortal.

Based on the year 418, level 8 cultivation is by no means ordinary.

From cyan dragon to crimson dragon, it is currently at level 10 threshold; A purple national fortune ancestor like Sima Yi stopped at level 11...... The cyan national fortune ancestor, stopped at level 9. Level 8 cultivation has nothing to do with dragon qi, but it is a first-tier celebrity patron second only to dragon qi patrons. Only when the fame equals Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Sun Quan, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Meng, Lu Xun and other generations can they hope to enjoy the favor of the first level of celebrities; Ma Tan, Lu Kang and other generations can only enjoy the favor of second-tier celebrities. The level 8 immortals who appeared in Dongyang County were either Liu Yu, the founder of the Liu Song Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty, or a historical legend who could compete with Lu Su and Lu Meng on the same stage.

Wei Dongsheng walked towards Confucianism and middle age.

The middle-aged Confucian costume stood on a bookstall and held a volume of "Basic Applications of Calculus: Mechanics and Reiki Mechanics". Confucianism was quite serious when he was middle-aged, staring at a certain page from time to time and thinking about it, but his mathematical skills were obviously not good enough, and he was at a loss in the face of more pages. Wei Dongsheng interjected at the right time: "Your Excellency is also interested in Reiki mechanics? ”

Wei Dongsheng restrained his aura and pretended to be a level 5 immortal, and when he was close to the middle age of Confucianism, he had already sensed it. It was only because Wei Dongsheng did not have the slightest malice, and because he was middle-aged and self-assured of his level 8 cultivation, that he continued to study quietly as if no one was there. Hearing Wei Dongsheng take the initiative to ask, the middle-aged Confucian man shook his head with a smile: "I don't understand." ”

In other words, as Wei Dongsheng practiced the reproduction of the real-world science and technology tree, some scientific ideas gradually took root and sprouted. From the three laws of mechanics to fluid mechanics, there are immortals who try to integrate the achievements of natural science into the immortal seed system, such as the internal force or breath derived from the immortal seed, can we build a stable mathematical model? For example, the light body method developed by the Immortals, and the punching style of the Immortals' fists and feet, are they in line with fluid mechanics? For example, when enchanting a weapon of the Immortals, is it possible to reduce the enchantment area by combining the material structure? And so on, these scientific cultivations that transcend the accumulation of traditional experience were simply named Reiki Physics by Wei Dongsheng, also known as Reiki Mechanics for short.

It turns out that the laws of natural science do not conflict with the immortal seed system. Through scientific research and optimization, many families have made a qualitative leap in the unique exercises accumulated over the course of more than 100 years, and the efficiency of the use of supernatural powers has been greatly improved. For example, long-range immortals who are accustomed to bows and arrows and firearms can optimize the enchantment method with reference to fluid mechanics, and their power, range, and accuracy have been significantly improved. Many of the traditional exercises are ignorant and magical, and they are also easy to understand.

Of course, Reiki mechanics also has a threshold for Reiki mechanics.

For example, in the hands of the middle-aged Confucian, the book "Basic Applications of Calculus: Mechanics and Reiki Mechanics", in addition to a fairly solid application of calculus, it is also necessary to supplement many foundations in physics, space mathematics and other aspects. The Peerless Gate Alliance advocates the system of supervising, and most of the immortals who graduate from the superintendent have a certain scientific foundation, and they can slowly understand these achievements in spiritual energy by studying a certain discipline in depth. The political system of Sima Jin Kingdom is the Nine Grades Zhongzheng System, those immortals at the top of the food chain, most of them respect the pure talk of humanities and society, and despise the pragmatic natural sciences, at least eighty percent of the immortals are illiterate in the eyes of the Absolute Holy Gate Alliance.

Wei Dongsheng chatted with the middle-aged Confucian for a few words, and found that he was such an illiterate person.

Don't say that the complex application of calculus is the simpler analytic geometry, and the middle age of Confucianism is also confused. When a middle-aged Confucian scholar reads the book "Basic Applications of Calculus: Mechanics and Reiki Mechanics", he can only skip the complex argumentation and discussion links and directly memorize the author's conclusions. The conclusion is right, Confucianism is humbly written down in middle age; The conclusion is wrong, and the middle-aged Confucian disdain the author, and it is difficult to generalize the subjective will to study why is right and why is wrong.

Wei Dongsheng then shifted the topic and chatted with the middle-aged Confucian about the recent situation in Dongyang County.

Perhaps thanks to Wei Dongsheng's status as a level 5 immortal, the middle-aged Confucian is polite and polite, and he knows everything. Although the gold content of an immortal is getting lower and lower, the political status of a legitimate immortal in Sima Jin Kingdom is currently at least equivalent to that of a deputy director-level cadre in a real-world republic. A level 5 immortal, if he is willing to serve the imperial court, just by virtue of his status as an immortal, there is a high probability that he will become a county magistrate; If this person fits the Shangguan's wishes, he will have the opportunity to climb to a county guard. The middle-aged Confucian is willing to waste time chatting with Wei Dongsheng, also because Wei Dongsheng is worth his time.

After the atmosphere was harmonious, Confucianism began to ask Wei Dongsheng confidently: "Listening to your accent, it seems to be from the north?" ”

Wei Dongsheng nodded: "Yes." ”

The middle-aged Confucian Fu said with emotion: "Since He Lu (He Wuji and Lu Xun) opened the sea, there have been more and more immortals who have migrated south. When you came to the south, what do you think of the Jin Kingdom, and are you a little disappointed? ”

Wei Dongsheng was noncommittal: "It's okay." ”

The middle-aged Confucian said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not good enough, or it's not good." ”

Wei Dongsheng smiled bitterly and said, "If it's not good, the Northern Immortals won't go forward and immigrate to the Jin Kingdom." ”

The middle-aged Confucian asked: "The north is several times more prosperous than the south, but the world only hears that the northern immortals come from the south, and does not hear that the southern immortals go north." What do you think makes sense of this? ”

Wei Dongsheng sighed and quoted a common phrase in public opinion: "The Absolute Holy Gate is harsh for politics." ”

The middle-aged Confucian nodding: "Even if the rewards of the Jin Kingdom are lowered again and again, the treatment of the immortals is far ten times higher than that of the north." An immortal who fled south once spoke resentfully about his situation: one day he accidentally quarreled with a vegetable vendor and kicked the vendor. Just because the peddler was seriously injured, he was hunted down by the Holy Gate the next day and convicted of intentional wounding. The immortal said angrily: "I studied in Chang'an Supervision School for five years, and I joined the army to defeat monsters and suppress evil dragons, and I have made countless contributions to the country. What is the merit of that hawker who wanders around the vegetable market all day long? What is the reason why I have done great work in the Absolute Holy Gate, but the Absolute Holy Gate does not allow me to kick the peddler? ’”

"By avoiding the occasional calamity, the Immortals can live for hundreds of years. Everyone works hard to study and advance, and most of them want to live a long life, be prosperous and wealthy, and display their ambitions, and from then on they will be superior to others. But the Absolute Gate told the Northern Immortals that you were no more noble than a group of old farmers in the fields, and that your life was no more valuable than the life of a peddler. ”

"What's the point of working hard if it doesn't improve status?"

"I was born in a poor family, and I didn't have enough food or clothing. If I had a choice, I would dream of being born in the northern land of today. The north is good, the Absolute Holy Gate does not allow the landlord to oppress the tenants, and the Absolute Holy Gate also provides relief to the poor families, if I were born today, I would not be hungry and hungry, and I would have to chop wood and plow the fields! But when I advanced to the rank of immortal, my mentality slowly changed. ”

"If I deliberately kill a few tenants in the south, and the tenants' families sue the government, the government will only beat the tenants' families. Because I am an immortal, I have the privilege of killing, unless I make trouble in the city, otherwise it is my private matter to kill tenants and slaves; Even if you kill other tenants and slaves, you only need to pay money to close the case. The Jin Kingdom regarded me as a hero, and they felt that I was more valuable than a hundred tenants, so they also treated me as a hero. In the North, the Gate regarded me as a commoner, so they treated me as a civilian, and if they wounded a hawker, they were sentenced. As an immortal, I definitely want to live in the Jin Kingdom! ”

"The reason why the immortals who have been painstakingly cultivated by the Absolute Holy Gate have immigrated to the south one after another is because the Absolute Holy Gate strictly restricts the immortals."

"There is no reward for kindness, this is the limitation of the Absolute Holy Gate."
