Chapter 180 Cultivation and Enlightenment

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The more enlightened Hong Sang becomes, the more she envies Yunyao and her disciple¡¯s luck.

    Enlightenment means the more you understand, the more you understand. However, there are some things that cannot be changed after you understand them. There will naturally be some strange factors affecting you.  These factors cannot be embodied, quantified, or interfered with.

    Just like different people in the same environment have different situations, or the same person encounters different situations in different environments, everyone is affected somehow.  Some say it's God's will, some say it's fate.

    The higher Hong Sang¡¯s cultivation level, the more he respects this mysterious power, which he calls Tao.

    To put it simply, there are very few factors that people can control. They can study hard and practice well, but Tao is not a good teacher. It will not give you success just because you work hard, nor will you become an immortal just because you practice immortality.

    So inexplicable bottlenecks will appear, various disasters will come, and unknown cause and effect will entangle, leaving the immortal cultivators breathless.

    Being able to not be disturbed by these troublesome factors is luck, and Yunyao's luck is so strong that even red mulberry trees are envious.

    But the more envious she is, the more she has to practice, because with the deepening of practice, Hong Sang has a feeling that factors that were originally uncontrollable are gradually being controlled, and she is more and more able to control her own destiny.

    It is like a person tossing a coin and guessing heads and tails. The first time he guesses, he must be blind, because he knows nothing except that there are two sides of the coin.  But the factors that affect whether a coin lands on the front or the back are not just the two sides of the coin, but also the force of the throw, whether the texture of the coin is uniform, the wind direction, humidity, and even the deflection force of the earth at that time. Of course, these can still be measured.  There are quantifiable factors, and there are also some more mysterious unquantifiable factors, such as what day it is today and how you feel today

    Quantifiable and non-quantifiable factors form a huge environment, which affects the whole body.  The three teachings say it is Tao, while the Western teachings say it is karma.

    Quantifiable factors can still be controlled, but unquantifiable factors are difficult to control and even difficult to detect.  Cultivation of immortality is divided into two steps: cultivation and enlightenment.  Cultivation of nature is the control of quantifiable factors, and enlightenment is the understanding of unquantifiable factors.

    The more he practices, the more Hong Sang understands why so many gods have taken refuge in Western religions, because the cause and effect cycle of Western religions is indeed more specific, and many unquantifiable factors are explained in detail, making it easier for monks to understand.

    However, Hongsang still believes that the three teachings of Taoism are the ones that truly control the essence of Tao. Western religions stick to details and still cannot achieve the perfection of Tao.

    Hong Sang improved quickly after getting the fragments of the Tao Te Ching. She knew that this was because of her disciples. All the interference factors in the thatched cottage were very weak, and the Tao seemed to be right in front of her.

    Yunyao didn¡¯t know that the progress of Hong Sang and her two masters and disciples was completely beyond common sense and could scare the immortal cultivators.  As an immortal cultivator, Du Niang is still honing her innate energy and waiting for the elixir to be formed. She usually manages the fief well, improves the living standards of the fief people, and multi-tasks.

    At the beginning, Shuzai mentioned to Yunyao that the development of the fief would make the savages lazy, and now they no longer care about cultivating public fields. Yunyao also noticed that now the savages are thinking about their own chickens and ducks.  In the past, they could rest after doing farm work and didn't have to do anything. But now they often do handicrafts at home and raise chickens and ducks, so they have extra work to do.  Human strength is limited. Public land, private land, handicrafts, and chicken and duck breeding all require strength, so the only choice is to be lazy on public land.  Private farmland is your own food, handicraft industry needs to be exchanged for feed, and chickens and ducks can improve their lives. These three are related in interests and they must not be lazy.

    So Uncle Zai was worried.

    Over the past five years, Yunyao selflessly contributed his skills and improved everyone's wealth, but it was natural for the savages to make the inevitable choice of human nature.

    However, Yunyao was not anxious at all. The output of the public fields did not decrease anyway, because Yunyao developed bronze farm tools and helped the savages to be lazy.  They want to save energy, so Yunyao will help them save energy. Once bronze farm tools appear, the savages no longer have to work as hard as before.  However, because bronze farm tools were so precious, the farm tools were completely kept by the fiefs and were only used when farming public fields, because the quantity was simply not enough for every savage family to farm private fields.

    But if the savages really want to use bronze agricultural tools to cultivate private fields, there are two ways: one is to buy them, which is very expensive, and the other is to rent them.  But obviously the savages didn't want to waste their money, so they cultivated private fields according to their original habits.

    The property accumulated in the fief in the past five years is all Yunyao's private property and no longer belongs to Lu.  This is the reason why the authority of the Emperor Zhou will become weaker and weaker in the future, because all the princes have completed their original accumulation.There are mines, salt and various resources on the land of these princes, and their income is far more than the taxes paid to the Emperor of Zhou.  The amount of taxes that the Emperor of Zhou can receive is fixed. If one decreases and the other increases, the Emperor of Zhou will become poor and the princes will become rich.

    Therefore, the location selection at the beginning of a civilization is very important. Whether resources can be quickly converted into wealth determines whether it can gain an advantage in the early stage.

    The advantages of the Zhu family's fief are not great, but Yunyao is a time traveler. With clever thinking and quick thinking, he developed many appliances that transcend the times. He overcame the disadvantage of having no mines at his birthplace and became rich through hard work.  Although it is tiring, with the development of agricultural tools, the overall upward trend is obvious.

    However, the catastrophe of the human race has begun. Yunyao's teacher Ji She, as a mountain god, often takes the Lushan demon out to subjugate demons.  From time to time, some intelligent monsters would appear on both sides of the Zhu River and jump out to eat people. Ji She would ride Huang Xiaohu out of the mountain every time he got news.

    Ji She can know where the demon clan is, mainly because of the notification from the Dragon King of Zhuhe, and the mountain god and water god work closely together to form the defensive wall of Zhuhe.

    Yunyao is also well prepared and has accumulated enough food. If a monster attacks and destroys the fields, she will not go hungry immediately.  At the same time, Mowu was asked to patrol the fief every day to ensure that approaching dangers could be discovered as soon as possible.

    "Can eating people increase mana? Brother, is it true?" A yellow dog and a black dog were chatting.

    The yellow dog is called Brother Black Dog.

    "Of course it's true. I heard it from the White Rhinoceros Immortal. Could it be false? Especially for us little demons who have developed spiritual intelligence but have not transformed. The effect is the best. If we eat a hundred people, we will treat it as an encounter."  It¡¯s been a year of cultivation.¡± Black Dog said.

    ¡°No way, I¡¯ve never heard of it before.¡±

    "We are new to the industry and have never heard of it. It is normal. The White Rhinoceros Immortal is a great immortal in the Bigu stage. His words are definitely correct. Let's go eat people quickly."

    "Okay, let's go eat people together." The yellow dog was easily convinced, so the two dogs happily headed towards the human world.

    Can cannibalism improve cultivation?  If it were true, the human race would have been eaten up long ago, so who would get their turn?  From the time Nuwa created humans to the Battle of the Conferred Gods, the human race has been struggling to survive in the three realms by constantly striving for self-improvement, but now a wave of malice has enveloped them, using rumors to confuse all races and persecute the human race.
