002, the light lamp of the black wilderness

002, that world is so good

Since the birth of human beings, whether in mythology or reality, there have been a variety of physical and mental training methods and even so-called secret cultivation methods. Many of these secret legends are often related to ancient religions, most of them are absurd and difficult to verify, and some of them are far less exaggerated than they are boasted, and they are always shrouded in a veil of mystery.

Yangyuan is an epoch-making exercise method in human history, which was launched by a person named Xu Zihua four hundred years ago. It should have been launched before the establishment of Huanxiangguo, but the real large-scale promotion was decades after the advent of Chunrong Dan, and with the development and expansion of Huanxiangguo, it was popular all over the world in the 26th century.

Xu Zihua may not have been the inventor of the art of cultivating yuan, but it is said that he compiled a complete set of exercise systems that have been circulated openly and secretly in the world throughout history, and promoted them publicly. The effectiveness of this workout system is verifiable and independent of any specific religious beliefs, and it has been demystified to the greatest extent possible.

The appearance of the Yuan Cultivation Technique occurred at a very delicate point in time. At that time, biotechnology with genetic research as the core had made many achievements after nearly 100 years of development, but it also encountered insurmountable bottlenecks.

Biotechnology has been able to complete the cloning of a variety of living organisms, and even create many new species through genetic modification, but it has never been able to break through the most critical step, that is, to create even the simplest life form with non-living matter, and those new species that have been modified may be more appropriate to call new varieties.

What is the nature of the phenomenon of life, and what is the reason and purpose for its appearance? People couldn't get an exact answer, and this sparked a big discussion. The world has entered the era of industrial civilization and information civilization, so what is the direction and purpose of the development of human civilization, and what is the significance of life wisdom?

There is a point of view in the discussion that is accepted by the vast majority of people, that is, the development of human civilization must of course serve people themselves, no matter how many and advanced tools are used, the ultimate goal should also be implemented in what state each specific person can achieve physically and mentally, and the art of nourishing yuan appeared at this time.

The promotion of Yangyuan also experienced a hundred years of twists and turns, and at first it was monopolized by a certain class and forbidden to be publicized. Many people have achieved success in cultivation, and all aspects of their abilities, including lifespan, have increased significantly, which has also led to the emergence of a "new aristocratic history".

Later, someone finally broke down the barrier and spread the art of raising the yuan to the whole people. In today's Huanxiang country, Yangyuan art has been included in the compulsory secondary school curriculum, and every child has five years of free learning opportunities.

The art of cultivating the yuan exercises a kind of physical and mental realm, so as to enhance and master the various abilities of the person himself. Based on this realm, the ability to be trained through various special methods may have been regarded as superpowers five hundred years ago.

It is difficult to teach the art of cultivating the Yuan in the usual teaching methods, and it is more suitable to use the mentorship system or the older master-apprentice inheritance system. Each secondary school in Huanxiangguo is equipped with a special Yuanjutsu tutor, who will provide timely guidance according to the different situations of students in the course of practice, until students truly grasp the practice methods.

In the practice of cultivating the Yuan, we should not only know its theories, but also see whether the empirical results have reached a certain state of mind and body. Huanxiang has a special official agency responsible for issuing the certificate of Yangyuan Technique. There are six levels of certificates, with levels 1 to 3 being primary, and the recipient is often referred to as a nourishing master; Levels 4 to 6 are intermediate, and the recipient is often referred to as the Yuan Cultivation Mentor.

As for the sixth level, and above it, it is advanced. It is said that there are nine levels of Yuan Cultivation Technique, and those who have attained level 7 or more are called Master Yuan Cultivation Techniques. But the high level is not something that can be assessed by an official organization, and the master of the Yuan Cultivation Technique is even just a legend among ordinary people.

There are very few masters of Yangyuanshu, and the Yangyuan master with an intermediate certificate is also a scarce talent in the world, and it is very popular wherever he goes, and many places usually can't invite him.

According to the "Teaching Outline of Yuan Cultivation Technique" promulgated by Huan Xiangguo, only those who have obtained the intermediate Yuan Cultivation Technique certificate are qualified to instruct others to practice primary Yuan Cultivation Technique. Huanxiangguo has included Yangyuanshu in compulsory education, and the Yangyuanshu instructors in each middle school are sent by the government, which is difficult for other countries or regions in the world to have.

After so many years of promotion, the tutorial of the Yuan Cultivation Technique is actually no secret. In Huanxiangguo, everyone has the opportunity to practice under the guidance of a professional mentor, but not everyone can become a nourishing teacher.

Statistics over the past hundreds of years show that after training and practice, nearly 40% of those who can finally get the first-level certificate and almost one-third can get the second-level certificate, which is not low, but the proportion of those who have obtained the third-level certificate has decreased sharply, only less than 1 percent, and the final number of people who can get the intermediate certificate is not more than 1 in 1,000.

With a huge population base, the proportion of 1 in 1,000 seems not low, but this is only a possible probability, it requires long-term practice and continuous training and guidance, and the investment in all aspects is huge, not that one in 1,000 people must be able to get an intermediate certificate.

Tutors with intermediate certificates can further develop various special abilities and are urgently needed talents in all fields of society.

Even if you are a citizen of Huanxiang Country who has the best training conditions in the world, less than 40% of them can finally get a primary certificate, so what about the others? There is another characteristic of the art of cultivating the yuan, even if it does not meet the standard of obtaining a first-level certificate in the end, there is no harm in cultivating it, it also has the effect of cultivating the spirit, strengthening the body, and prolonging life, and it is okay to insist on practicing it for a lifetime.

The effectiveness of the Cultivation Technique was also questioned at first, but now the voices of doubt have almost disappeared. There is a statistic that proves everything, just in 2050, the average life expectancy of Huanxiang citizens has reached 108 years, of which 106.5 years for men and 109.5 years for women.

Average life expectancy is not the average age, but the average life expectancy of all people. The average age of the people just announced is 33 years old, which is a relatively young demographic structure relative to the average life expectancy.

The life expectancy of women is on average three years higher than that of men, and some say that this is a physiological difference, while others say that it may be the effect of taking Chun Rong Dan. By the way, the official also claims that the Yuanyang technique can promote the effect of Chunrong Dan, according to the popular saying in society, "to increase the effect of rejuvenation for ten years".

This is the world that Hua Zhenxing dreamed of, five hundred years later.

In the dream, he didn't realize that he was in a dream, and seemed to have completely forgotten that he was actually a fifteen-year-old child in 2020. His name is Hua Zhenxing, and he is a fresh undergraduate who has just graduated from the University of Africa, and he is fortunate to work in the Chunrongdan Production and R&D Center in the Port of Africa.

As for age, Hua Zhenxing didn't realize this problem in his dream, if he made up for it according to the dream, he should be twenty or twenty-one years old. Because Huanxiang Country stipulates that children can apply for admission when they reach the age of five, and after they reach the age of six, they must go to elementary school.

The education system of Huanxiang Country is different from that of most countries and regions 500 years ago, with a ten-year compulsory education system, with primary schools being five years instead of six years, and middle schools being five years old and not divided into junior high and high schools.

The duration of the undergraduate program is five years; Three years of higher education; The duration of the vocational and technical colleges is two years. Graduates can also receive a variety of vocational training and continuing education after entering the workforce.

As for the master's and doctoral programs, both are two-and-a-half to three-year programs. Most of the young people in the fantasy country do not go to graduate school immediately after graduating from university, and usually work for a period of time before taking the exam. One of the reasons for this is that people have a long enough life expectancy to study and work.

Hua Zhenxing has experienced a complete 15-year education in primary school, middle school and university, and after graduation, he entered the Chunrongdan Production Research Center to work. He was able to get such an enviable job, in addition to being excellent in character and learning, but also because he already had a third-level certificate in Yuan Cultivation Technique, he was a young talent with great potential.

Hua Zhenxing obtained the second-level Yuanjutsu certificate before graduating from high school, and obtained the third-level Yuanjutsu certificate during his undergraduate years, and now he is just in his early twenties, and he has great hope to become an intermediate nourishing master in the future, and even has a glimmer of hope that he will eventually become a senior Yuanjutsu master.

Although higher education in Huanxiangguo is not compulsory, it is basically a public-funded education, and the state provides subsidies for its citizens, and only a small nominal tuition fee is charged, and students only need to pay for their own living and the purchase of teaching materials.

The government of Huanxiang Country promises to provide jobs for all fresh graduates who have passed the evaluation, and will publish these positions on a special information platform during the graduation season every year, and the graduates will choose by themselves, a bit like applying for the college entrance examination. The jobs of other social personnel will also be recruited all year round, and a special information platform will be announced.

The jobs offered to fresh graduates are located in 28 states around the world, with different requirements and natures, so it is a two-way selection process. The comprehensive evaluation of the applicant's education period, the professional requirements, and the place of residence of the original family are the three most important weights in the employment conditions.

If someone applies for a job and is not hired, it doesn't matter, you can re-apply, because the number of jobs and graduates offered in the country every year is the same, and there is always a place to work as long as you are willing to work. This two-way matchmaking process would be too arduous to complete if it were carried out in a traditional manual way, but in the era of artificial intelligence for hundreds of years, it has become very simple.

If someone can't find a job that they are satisfied with and is unwilling to take up other jobs, they can choose to be unemployed, a term that originated more than 500 years ago. However, many benefits in Huanxiang can only be enjoyed in specific jobs.

There is also a situation, such as Hua Zhenxing, who already has a third-level certificate in Yuan Cultivation and is very eager to become an intermediate Yuan Cultivation Tutor, which will be welcomed and valued all over the world.

Huanxiang country also stipulates that citizens who have received many welfare subsidies such as education, housing, medical care, and job training from an early age must pay corresponding compensation fees if they apply to immigrate abroad. If someone conceals the news and goes missing, then the official of Huanxiang Country will exercise the right of recourse according to the situation.

In fact, this provision is a bit redundant, because it is rare for citizens of Huanxiang countries to apply for immigration. Statistics show that in the past 100 years, a total of 9,843 men have applied for immigration, less than 10,000; Thirty-seven women applied for immigration, and only a few dozen. By 2520, the total population of the country was close to 300 million.

Among the many social benefits of Huanxiang Country, there is one that is the envy of all countries in the world: all female citizens of Huanxiang Country can apply for a box of Chunrong Dan free of charge from the state as long as they meet the following conditions at the same time.

1. Be at least 25 years old.

2. Married with two or more children, and both husband and wife are citizens of Huanxiang Country.

3. There is no crime or the criminal act has exceeded the prescribed period of the corresponding penalty.

As long as the above conditions are met, you can apply and then participate in the lottery, once a year. The lucky ones may win the lottery in the first year, and some people may not win the lottery for several years in a row, but the probability of winning the lottery will increase with the number of applications, and they will definitely win the lottery within ten years, because the probability of winning the lottery for the tenth application has reached 100%.

How happy a woman is to dream of the country! In other countries in the world, it is difficult to buy Chunrong Dan with money, but here there is a chance to get it 100% free! Chunrong Dan, which is given free of charge by the state, should be kept and taken in designated medical institutions, and cannot be transferred or sold.

What about female citizens who don't meet the above criteria? As long as you are at least 25 years old, you can also participate in the lottery, the probability of winning the lottery is different, you can only guarantee that you will be able to win the lottery within 20 years, but you need to buy it at your own expense.

No more than 20 draws, you will definitely buy a box of Chunrong Dan, which is already a generous benefit that the rest of the world envy.
