Chapter 87 This Wang Zhe is very predictable!
"If my sect does not say that immortality is not immortality, it is because of this."
"This supreme Tao is not a mere little technique for prolonging life. Tao Qi transforms into heaven and earth, nourishes all things, and there is a saint who can maintain it. Those who can get the big ones are sages, while those who can get the small ones are ordinary people, and those who can get the flying and silence are only those who can get the bias. This is the most wise principle."
Wang Chongyang continued, feeling the atmosphere of Wende Hall while speaking.
He just said half of the story, because the entire Wende Hall was extremely quiet and confused. Wang Chongyang also saw the confusion on Li Gang's face.
This is normal. When he just studied with his master, he was as confused as Li Gang.
The Taoist scriptures are obscure and difficult to understand. Li Gang's reaction is normal, and His Majesty's appearance is probably the same.
"I probably know what you mean." Zhao Huan said. He tasted a little bit, not that he didn't understand, but that he really heard it.
Wang Chongyang’s Quanzhen Taoism does not mean immortality. It is not that he does not want to live forever, but that he has escaped the art of immortality. It is not that he prolongs his life, but that he lives with his "true nature".
Zhao Huan once saw such a line in a movie before.
A person will die three times in his life.
For the first time, when your heart stops and your breath disappears, you are biologically declared dead.
The second time, when you are buried, people attend your funeral in black. They declare that you no longer exist in this society and you quietly leave.
The third death is the last person in this world who remembers you and forgets you.
So you really die and the whole universe will no longer have anything to do with you.
He suddenly thought of a sentence in the full episode he saw recently: If a person does not live in people's hearts, he will really die.
These great masters in the world can always think of one place!
Your Majesty really understands?
Wang Chongyang had a big question mark in his heart. This sutra is obscure. Does Your Majesty really understand what he wants to express?
He didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask.
"The secret of the golden elixir is just one nature and one life. Nature is the heaven and always hides on the top; Nature is the earth and always hides on the navel. Top is the root of nature. Nature is the navel, and the navel is the stem of life..."
"Stop." Zhao Huan shouted to stop in time, and the following is the one involved in superstition.
He felt that this talk should be stopped because there is an old man in Wende Hall who is about to die, and is about to be a rotten wood, who is the Taoist master.
What if this kind of master listens to this Taoist and randomly takes goods like golden elixirs, wouldn’t it be a pity for the loyal ministers?
Master Zhong was a mature spirit. When he heard Zhao Huan shouting to stop, he considered the various behaviors of contacting the new emperor. He knew his thoughts, and felt a little relieved and a little lost.
When a person dies, he may be more important than Mount Tai or less than a feather.
My life is already more important than Mount Tai, so why bother considering such trivial matters?
"I saw the treasure presented by your apprentice Guo Jing, called soft hedgehog. This kind of craft can also be prepared in military weapon supervision. What I am curious about is where this raw material comes from?" Zhao Huan asked about the important matter.
Li Gang's eyes instantly became like a wild beast that chose people to eat.
The Song Dynasty searched for iron materials for 160 years, but it has not been found for the raw materials suitable for forging steel armor.
It was only after the Qingtang that a small batch of iron was supplied, but it was a drop in the bucket.
As soon as Wang Chongyang entered the door, he saw the soft armor placed next to him. Guo Jing gave him a good name.
On the way Wang Chongyang came, his personal servant told him why His Majesty summoned him.
"Your Majesty clearly understands that this armor is a fellow villager of Caomin in the Western Army. He brought back the cold forged armor of the Western Xia iron kite and melted it. Your Majesty, this soft hedgehog armor is not iron material in the Song Dynasty."
Wang Chongyang's answer disappointed everyone in Wende Hall.
Yes, it was not only the Song Dynasty that was looking for iron materials, but also the Han and Tang dynasties in the previous dynasties!
I just can't find the rich iron ore.
In the pre-Qin period, there were only thirty-seven iron mountains.
And the Han Empire lasted for four hundred years! It turned thirty-seven iron mountains into forty-nine!
Iron officials have set up supervision of iron affairs, and salt and iron are even set as a specialty.
The Tang Dynasty was the most prosperous in the previous dynasty, with a total of 104 places, but there were only fifty-three of these 104 places in the territory of the Song Dynasty.
There seem to be many fifty-three places, so we shouldn’t be short of iron, but the Song Dynasty lacks so much iron!
Most of the iron ore in the Song Dynasty were poor, and the iron ore was of extremely poor quality!
For example, the Liao Kingdom had iron from the Western Regions, which was refined by eating iron and stone, and the iron and stone came from the remains of the Great Yuezhi clan of the Western Regions.
During the Tang Dynasty, the Great Yuezhi was naturally in the territory and used whatever they wanted.
However, the influence of the Song Dynasty in the Western Regions was really minimal, and it was really difficult to find this surviving clan.
What is the difference between the iron in the Song Dynasty? Li Gang didn't know either.
I only know the same forging method, Qingtang iron material can forge cold forged armor, but the Song Dynasty still needs to collect the iron essence of the Five Mountains and the Jinying of Liuhe to forge a batch of armor.
It's really not enough!
No good iron!
No matter how capable blacksmiths are, it’s useless!
The output of more than 20 million kilograms of iron a year, but the soldiers in the world have no armor available.
Sometimes Li Gang doubts himself whether he cannot make cast iron into essence because he has not cut his skin and bloodletting.
Or is it because of the weak will? Or is it because of the physical strength? Or is it because of the tyrant insincere?
After all, the sword-making master Ou Yezi once said that he was not strong in will, his physical strength was not sustained, and his tyrant was not kind. This is the three harms of sword weapons.
Wang Chongyang has realized that he needs to speak.
Otherwise, he, a grass man, would not be able to leave this Wende Hall alive.
He smiled and said, "Treading thousands of mountains, climbing to the top. The eight wildernesses are collected and the golden sharks are gathered together. The furnace is smelted and the army is gradually formed. The flames rise, the purple air rises, the fire is tempered by Gusu, and the treasure is sharpened by Wushan. The iron and copper slurry is used to make steel forging."
"Using the harmony of water and fire, the pottery of the five essences, and the life and death of yin and yang, and the harmony of raw and mature can obtain cold forged steel, but..."
"Speak with others!" Zhao Huan interrupted Wang Chongyang with a frown!
What the hell is this look of the book bag, the water and fire are the same, the five essences are the tangerines, the life and death of the five essences, and the sum of the raw and mature things are all!
When is this? Is it interesting to type such a riddle?
Wang Chongyang was very helpless and wanted to popularize his ideas on Taoism.
It was shattered again, and the new emperor seemed to prefer the method of forging steel rather than his Taoism.
He felt that his Taoism was better than his own forging!
But the new emperor doesn't accept this trick at all. What can he do?
However, since he let Guo Jing come to Bian Jing City, he was planning to join the world and become an official.
Of course, he has to follow the emperor's wishes. The Wende Hall is full of officials, wearing armor and swords. He is a living person, no matter how good his martial arts are, he is afraid of swords!
After all, no one has an immortal golden body.
