Seeing the people from the Imperial College retreating in dismay, Prince Duan couldn't help but bow to Lu Chen and said, "Master Lu is indeed a master. By the way, I wonder if Master Lu is still willing to accept a disciple. My fifth son is very naughty, and I hope Master Lu can teach him for me."
Upon hearing this, many princes and ministers present were moved.
Yes, instead of waiting for Master Lu to use his magic to help them achieve immortality, why not let their own children learn from him?
Seeing everyone's gaze focused on him, Lu Chen waved his hand and refused, "If you really have a bad temper, then you'd better not send yourself to me. I've said before that if you want to learn my skills, you must have good character."
"I won't go into the details. You all probably know about the blood-for-life incident. Do you know how my teacher discovered blood types?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was startled. They realized that Lu Chen might be planning to tell them some secrets of the Immortal Sect, and many people became excited.
"How did Master Lu's sect discover these things?" Prince Duan asked hurriedly.
"It's very simple. Naturally, this conclusion was derived after cutting open the human body and carefully observing its internal structure."
What!?
This answer clearly exceeded everyone's comprehension. How could someone simply cut someone in half? What kind of deity could do such a thing? Even a demon wouldn't be so cruel, could it?
Seeing how inexperienced these people seemed, Lu Chen curled his lips in disdain and said, "Well, are you shocked? The medical skills I learned are based on anatomy. The senior who established this medical skill must have dissected at least hundreds of corpses."
It turned out to be an autopsy!
After Lu Chen's explanation, everyone calmed down. After all, there was a big difference between cutting a living person and cutting a dead person.
However, Lu Chen's next words once again made them feel like they were falling into an ice cave.
"My senior master is a man of profound knowledge, but even so, he still has many untreatable illnesses. Why do you think that is?"
Before anyone could give an answer, Lu Chen spoke again, "The answer is actually very simple. Many diseases can only be diagnosed by cutting open a person while they are still alive. Once a person is dead, cutting open the body is meaningless."
"If morality isn't considered, this discipline could eventually develop into the point where people are actually cut open alive for research. I think you can all imagine how terrifying that would be. This is why I repeatedly emphasize that if you want to learn my skills, you must have excellent moral character. Otherwise, it's very easy to fall into evil."
"If it's just cutting a few people alive, it's nothing. My sect has learned some profound knowledge, and some of the things it creates can make a hundred miles without a rooster crowing."
"So if you want to learn my skills, you must gain the approval of some great scholars in terms of character. You must know what propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are, and understand what a gentleman should and should not do."
"If Lord Wei is upholding the moral bottom line of the imperial court, then Confucianism is guarding the moral bottom line of the entire Great Qi. On this point, I still agree very much!"
Wei Yong stood aside, stroking his beard. He suddenly felt that Lu Chen was not so hateful after all.
