Even Professor Lin didn't have the chance to see the subsequent chapters.
"Because those things are very precious, they only gave you the first part of the root method. If someone really succeeds in practicing it, someone will naturally send you the subsequent methods."
But unfortunately, the experimental class was disbanded, and the project of old technique research was abandoned, so there was no subsequent root method.
Qin Cheng smiled and said, "The root method recorded in this bamboo slip can be regarded as helping Wang Xuan solve an important problem he is facing. If one day he becomes a powerful alchemist in modern times, it will be interesting and worth looking forward to."
"If he really studies it thoroughly and masters it, perhaps he can solve another problem. He will no longer need rare ingredients and medicinal food to practice the technique."
Professor Lin’s words surprised Wang Xuan.
What does this mean? The root method recorded on the bamboo slips is extremely mysterious and amazing!
"Is it that powerful?" Qin Cheng was surprised.
“Of course, the things left behind by those alchemists were not simple. The old techniques of that period were quite brilliant, and the pursuit of elixirs of immortality was also related to the alchemists.
Professor Lin told us that at a certain period of time, the tycoons of Xinxing spent a lot of manpower and money to search for ancient tombs in the old land, hoping to dig up things related to alchemists.
Nowadays, many tomb groups from past dynasties under the old land have been thoroughly explored, and there are very few that have escaped the net.
“So, even if you want to follow the path of the old arts, you have to go to Nova, because many precious books, secrets, and other rare scriptures from past dynasties are no longer in the old land.”
Qin Cheng muttered in dissatisfaction: "Do some people in the chaebol have some special collecting habit? What is the use of so many old techniques?"
"It is naturally useful. It has been verified that the old technique has been analyzed and applied by certain life research institutes. In the biological field, some modern results have been developed in a targeted manner, which can delay the aging of some old guys."
Professor Lin revealed a lot of secrets.
In fact, many good things have been dug out from ancient tombs. For example, someone once dug out golden bamboo slips. That is a special kind of bamboo that has survived the long years without rotting and is still as hard as iron.
However, this plant had long been extinct in the old soil, and no one knew of its existence before it was dug up.
It can be imagined that the things recorded on such bamboo slips are definitely not ordinary and must be extremely extraordinary.
But unfortunately, once these things are obtained by those organizations, research institutes, and chaebols, they are kept secret and rarely shown to the public, making it difficult for outsiders to see them anymore.
At one point in time, the chaebols and organizations of all types spent huge amounts of money searching for these kinds of things in the old land all year round.
Professor Lin unbuttoned his shirt, revealing old wounds on his body. There were two fist-sized scars on his chest next to his heart.
It seems that his body was pierced by some external force back then, and that part still looks terrible now.
"Back then, I was wounded repeatedly for the bamboo slips in the photo. All of them were fatal. One was pierced by a fist, and another was pierced by a modern weapon."
It was precisely because of this that Professor Lin, a former master of the old arts, could no longer fight in actual combat, and it was a miracle that he survived afterwards.
It can be seen how fiercely the major organizations and chaebols competed for these kinds of things.
When seeing the current Wang Xuan, Professor Lin seems to see his younger self, who has a strong desire to explore the old techniques. Unfortunately, his own path has long been blocked.
Wang Xuan comforted him, saying that perhaps in the future there would be new medicines that could solve Professor Lin’s physical problems.
"I'm so old now, I've let go of everything I should have let go of long ago." Professor Lin shook his head.
Qin Cheng said: "So, even if Wang Xuan wants to follow the path of the old technique, he needs to go to Xinxing. All the good things have been looted by the people over there."
Professor Lin was very serious: "More than that, the key is that the discovery over there may have far-reaching impacts, and may even trigger some changes in the future."
"What I said is all my own speculation. It is not information I got from the institute or some organization, so there is no need to keep it confidential."
The mysterious phenomena and supernatural powers reported by Nova are all related to certain objects.
Moreover, there were actually clues about these rumors and news decades ago, but it was not until recent years that some of the true facts were gradually revealed.
There seems to be a breakthrough regarding those secrets and problems.
Otherwise, the old technical projects here will not be abandoned.
"So, this is a rare opportunity. Since the new star seems to have found another way, the rare bamboo slips and various root methods collected by the chaebols may be circulated and no longer valued, and will be much easier to obtain than in the past!"
Wang Xuan's heart was pounding when he heard this. He really wanted to go to Xinxing, more than before.
Until now, Qin Cheng is still dissatisfied: "What kind of way did Xinxing find to throw away the old technique and us? They simply discarded us like a worn-out shoe and ruthlessly eliminated and abandoned us."
“It’s probably not as simple as just one path.” Professor Lin talked about his feelings.
In recent decades, some rare new species have appeared on Nova, such as a small tree called "Anshen", which is pure white and has fragrant leaves that can nourish people's minds. Eating a few leaves every day has anti-aging effects.
It is said that this extremely valuable small tree was discovered in the wilderness during the development of Nova.
There are similar plants and herbs, as well as special small creatures.
Professor Lin was a master of the old art. In his early years, he traveled alone through the mountains and rivers all over Nova, but he had never discovered those species.
"I suspect that they discovered not only a road, but also a planet with life, which may involve the extraordinary."
This is undoubtedly astonishing. It is suspected that Xinxing had discovered it a long time ago and explored such a place very early, but it was kept secret from ordinary people for many years.
Professor Lin added: "They probably ran into trouble in the past, and have only made progress in recent years, but I think it is not realistic for them to immediately gain supernatural powers no matter what they find."
There is one point that Professor Lin particularly emphasized. If a new world is really discovered, the medicinal herbs, various resources, extraordinary items, etc. there will definitely be of great help to the old techniques.
He looked down at the woman in the photo album, hesitating whether he should go meet this old friend and try to get a spot for Wang Xuan.
