Chapter 225: Sacrifice for the Immortal Law!
"Same-sex friendships? Who is same-sex? Who is making friends!"
At the dinner table, the old man cried out in grievance.
The main thing was that Teacher Tian was obviously a little emotional. There were two plates of vegetables in front of him, and the meat and vegetables were far away from him.
Although the vegetables in the nursing home are delicious.
But the two green plates in front of me clearly say, you do it on the first day and I do it on the fifteenth, don't say I didn't warn you.
The old man looked obviously panicked.
Teacher Tian's face looked inexplicably cold.
"Teacher Tian, don't be like this, I believe in Teacher Bai." Zheng Fa advised from the side.
The old man nodded frantically and looked at Zheng Fa with gratitude. He felt that only at this moment could he feel the warmth of being a fellow man.
Zheng Fa added: "Based on my understanding of Teacher Bai, that netizen should be a woman."
Teacher Tian’s face became even colder.
"..." The old man glared at Zheng Fa angrily: "How can you give advice like this? I was supposed to spend 20 years in prison, but you ended up being shot because of my defense?"
"Not a woman?"
"No! A man! A real man!"
The old white man explained angrily.
"That means same-sex friendship." Zheng Fa affirmed.
"...We are of the same sex and are also friends." The old man didn't know how to explain it clearly, and was afraid that Zheng Fa would continue to make trouble, so he quickly said, "He is not a new friend either, but an old friend."
"Old friend?" Teacher Tian became curious: "Do I know him?"
The old man shook his head and said to Zheng Fa: "Do you remember that when I was young, I also had a master, right?"
"Remember, the one who was arrested." Zheng Fa still had a clear impression of him.
"This guy... can be considered my junior fellow apprentice." The white old man recalled, "At that time, I was only 28 or 29 years old, not yet 30, and he was not even 20 yet, just entering college. We were both apprentices of that master."
Zheng Fa nodded: "This friendship is old."
“Not old.” The old man shook his head and said, “I was just practicing for fun at the time. When my master was caught, I got scared and hid at home for a few days.”
“He’s different.”
"How is it different?"
"He..." The old man frowned and said, "You know that martial arts fanatic in the movies, right?"
"Him too?"
"No, he's a qigong fanatic." The white old man shook his head and said, "He and I have different personalities. In fact, we are not very familiar with each other. We haven't seen each other for many years. This time I heard that after my fraud teacher was arrested, he did not give up. He visited Taoist temples and Buddhist temples everywhere to seek the true Dharma. He went abroad to study for a doctorate and searched for some ancient heritage all over the world. He would go wherever there was a chance to deceive people."
“…”
"So why is he looking for you, Mr. Bai?"
“Oh, wasn’t I famous on the Internet before?” The white old man shook his head and said, “After I became an immortal, my appearance became a bit like when I was young. In the live broadcast room, I even said my last name was Bai, and he recognized me.”
"He thinks..." Zheng Fa guessed.
"Yes, he thought I had found an opportunity and wanted to ask me about it." The old man said dejectedly, "It would be fine if he guessed wrong, but he happened to guess right... That's why I went to see him, to prevent him from asking around and attracting other people's attention."
Zheng Fa nodded.
The two looked at Teacher Tian standing beside them, and sure enough, between the questions and answers, Teacher Tian's expression eased.
The old man secretly gave Zheng Fa a look of gratitude.
Tang Lingwu, who was standing by, smiled and moved a plate of chicken in front of the old man. Teacher Tian seemed not to see it and just lowered his head to eat.
"Actually, I also want to see if this person can be absorbed into the nursing home." Teacher Bai suddenly said, his tone very hesitant.
"Huh? This guy is also a scholar?" Zheng Fa was stunned. How can this guy who prays to gods and Buddhas everywhere be interested in science? "He studied physics in China. I heard that he got a tenured position abroad. He seems to be doing well." The white old man shook his head and said, "It's just that this guy... I describe it this way. Physics is just a living for him. What he yearns for is qigong and the distance."
“…”
Everyone was speechless.
"He studies physics only because he has a talent for it... He even has an outstanding talent. He can easily produce some results in experiments that others cannot do." The white old man sighed, "But he only regards this as a career..."
Zheng Fa also understood what the old man Bai was thinking.
Although the old man didn't say it, Zheng Fa could understand that this man probably had extraordinary academic ability.
But this character sounds...unreliable.
On the other hand, although they are old acquaintances, according to what Old Man Bai said, the two have not been in touch for many years.
In fact, there is no guarantee about the other person's character and background.
Even whether the other party's personality and experience were real or not, they couldn't be sure.
Zheng Fa didn't take this man seriously for the time being. What he was worried about now was the attack by the demon tribe three months later.
He looked at the fusang wood in his body and felt a little resentful.
The Fusang tree certainly helped a lot. The most important thing was that it attracted the Golden Crow and let them know the demon clan's plan.
But on the other hand, this thing made his cultivation much more difficult.
If it were before, just based on the thunder-type spiritual materials he ate, not to mention other things, he should have been able to reach the late stage of foundation building.
Zheng Fa doesn't really care about the speed of cultivation.
But after the realm is broken through, the soul will also be strengthened.
Zheng Fa’s spiritual power level is now in the early stage of foundation building, but the strength of his soul has already surpassed the late stage of foundation building.
If one can advance to the late stage of foundation building, the soul will almost certainly cross the golden elixir threshold.
With the strength of the soul in the Jindan stage, he might be able to master the spiritual wood thunder, thereby obtaining a large amount of heavenly power and accelerating the control of the Tianbei world.
Thinking of this, he looked at the Fusang tree with a rather unfriendly look...
The hibiscus tree trembled, as if a little scared.
…
"Come here!" On this day, Zheng Fa was continuing to study Cloud Rain Thunder with Old Man Bai, trying to further optimize this thunder method, when Teacher Tian suddenly rushed over excitedly.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing how anxious she was, the old man asked quickly.
"Come to my lab!"
Teacher Tian said nothing, but just greeted the two of them.
Zheng Fa and Old Man Bai looked at each other and walked towards Teacher Tian’s agricultural laboratory.
On the way, Teacher Tian started to explain: "You know, I usually take some samples from the field every day and look at them in the laboratory."
Zheng Fa nodded.
Although the spiritual environment has not yet produced spiritual plants - Zheng Fa and Teacher Tian have also discussed a situation where the plants have indeed undergone some changes, such as genetic mutations, but because they have not been planted for enough time, they cannot really become spiritual plants.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Because of this conjecture, they would save seeds after every harvest, and Teacher Tian would also take samples for observation.
"Look at these cell slices!"
Teacher Tian led Zheng Fa and the other person to a computer. On the screen were several enlarged images of the interior of cells.
Zheng Fa looked at them one by one - well, all he could recognize were some very basic things, such as cell wall, cell nucleus, chloroplasts, mitochondria and the like.
But to be honest, his high school biology knowledge was not enough to help him understand anything from these pictures.
"Oda, is there something wrong with this cell?"
Teacher Tian patted his forehead and said, "I was so excited that I forgot you were unfamiliar with this."
She pulled up a few previous cell images, placed them side by side, and said, "Can you guys take another look?"
Zheng Fa and the others looked at it for a while. The old man frowned and said uncertainly: "There is a... new organization?"
Zheng Fa also saw it.
This is an inconspicuous thing, located close to the cell wall. Compared with things like the nucleus, it seems very small.
"right!"
Teacher Tian clapped his hands and said, "In the past two days, this thing suddenly appeared in the cells of the pea seedlings!"
"It has become a spiritual plant?"
The old man Bai was also happy.
"I'm not sure, except that it has changed significantly."
Zheng Fa immediately stopped the operation of Lingshan Fa in his body.
The three men walked to the edge of the field and looked at the pea seedlings for a long time.
“Spiritual energy!”
"There is spiritual energy on this pea sprout!"
"We really cultivated a spiritual plant!"
The old white man cheered.
Even Tang Lingwu in the house was attracted. A group of people surrounded a few ordinary pea seedlings, looking left and right, afraid that they had seen it wrong.
Finally, it was confirmed that there was indeed a very weak spiritual energy flowing through the pea seedlings, which was completely indistinguishable in the spiritual environment.
They didn't leave other plants alone either.
I looked around the experimental field and my eyes were green with envy, but I couldn't find another vegetable that contained spiritual energy.
"It should be just this one. There is no change in other samples in the laboratory." Teacher Tian also said.
Everyone was a little disappointed.
Teacher Tian comforted him, "Our industry is different from Lao Bai's. They rely on people for math, and we rely on the weather for agriculture."
"Look at the sky? Look at the weather and climate?" Tang Lingwu asked curiously.
"No, it depends on whether God blesses you." Teacher Tian shook his head and said, "Sometimes you don't know when it will succeed, or even why it succeeds."
Zheng Fa was silent. They didn't know now...
…
"This cell organization..." The old man looked at the cell structure diagram that Teacher Tian had magnified a lot, touched his chin and said, "It looks a little familiar..."
Zheng Fa nodded and suddenly said, "It looks like a bunch of tangled threads - or rather, like a talisman tangled together."
"Yes! That's exactly what I feel!" The white old man clapped his hands, "It's a pity that the picture is too blurry. I can't tell what kind of talisman it is."
"In fact, I've been thinking..." Zheng Fa suddenly said, "Whether it's the talisman, our meridians, or even the spells - they are essentially the trajectory of spiritual energy. If you want to turn them into spiritual plants, you probably need this kind of spiritual energy trajectory."
"You mean, this is the 'meridian' of the spiritual plant?"
Old Man Bai immediately understood what Zheng Fa meant.
"Yes, but I don't know why it exists in the form of cell tissue." Zheng Fa nodded.
Touching his chin, the old man suddenly said: "Zheng Fa, didn't I mention to you before that I wanted you to go to the Medical College of Jingcheng University..."
Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment, then looked at the old man: "Do you want to see our cell structure?"
"Yes, if you don't want to be sliced by outsiders, it's okay for your own people to slice everything, right?" The white old man pointed to the laboratory: "There are a lot of equipment here, it's time for us to dedicate ourselves to the science of immortality!"
Zheng Fa thought for a while and asked, "Teacher Tian?"
"Wait a minute, I need to look up the information and see the experimental specifications." Teacher Tian shook his head and sighed, "I'm an agricultural worker, and I've never done human experiments before."
