The style of the forum is a bit biased...
At the beginning, everyone didn't quite understand the secrets of anonymity, so when they heard about Zhou Ganyuan, they were told the truth offline - he must have been holding back too much at the time, and didn't think much of what he said.
But those who can get Comprehensive Mirror are considered elites of the Nine Mountains Sect, and there are still fewer fools.
Soon, most people's waistcoats were worn without any trace.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
Senior Sister Zhang is leaning in the small pavilion in her own courtyard, with a relaxed expression, and her fingers are still tapping on her Comprehensive Mirror, just like an Internet addicted girl.
"Answer the question."
Senior Sister Zhang didn't even raise his head and continued to indulge in the forum.
Zheng Fa is actually a little disappointed.
Seeing her like this, Zheng Fa felt a little curious. Divine Sense immersed himself in Creation Jade Disc and immediately discovered what the idiot Senior Sister Zhang was doing--
Although she was wearing a vest, it was too obvious.
In the forum, in addition to some random gossip posts, there are also many people asking questions.
Among them, the most requests for help are about Mathematics:
Mathematics is now regarded as one of the foundations of the Nine Mountains Sect Immortal Method. All disciples know that this subject is extremely important, but on the other hand, there are too many disciples who are so obsessed with this thing that their Daoist hearts collapse.
Among all the Q&A posts on Nine Mountains Forum, there are the most posts about Mathematics's problems.
In order to encourage disciples to solve problems with each other, Zheng Fa has set up a reward system, or a scoring function - that is, disciples who ask questions have to pay Merit for satisfactory answers, which is not much. In essence, the honor is greater than the reality.
But in the past two days, a Merit devourer has appeared under this type of post, and it seems that big businesses can make a fortune from this type of post:
An anonymous user, single-handedly, solved more than 90% of the Mathematics problems in the forum.
Even day and night, I never get tired of it.
The only thing that prevented this person from getting rich was that after he got Merit, he actually picked a few posts and returned the Merit ten times or a hundred times...
The topics in the selected posts tend to be difficult or relatively new.
This anonymous user seems to be picking and choosing among these Mathematics questions, and then eating them together... If there is a question that satisfies her, she will also give a reward or two.
No need to think about who this person is, Zheng Fa...
Zheng Fa looked at Senior Sister Zhang with a somewhat nostalgic look:
... She still likes to answer questions so much.
He still felt a little guilty in his heart. He had been coming to the Nine Mountains Sect for a few years. When he first came here, he would submit some difficult questions every month. Later, he became more and more busy and neglected...
No.
Zheng Fa suddenly remembered that it was not that he was negligent, but that a long time ago, Senior Sister Zhang suddenly said that she didn't like it anymore.
Now it seems that she doesn't like it.
Senior Sister Zhang was originally obsessed with solving problems, but seemed to feel Zheng Fa's gaze and raised his head to look at him.
Seeing Zheng Fa's complex expression, Senior Sister Zhang seemed to understand what he was thinking all of a sudden and tilted his head as if he was thinking about what to say.
"You are very busy."
"..."
Zheng Fa knew that she was explaining why she lied to herself that she didn't like it.
He also understands that the identities of the two have been changing, and naturally they will not maintain the previous pattern.
"I really don't like this that much anymore..."
Senior Sister Zhang pointed at Comprehensive Mirror, probably referring to the question Mathematics in Comprehensive Mirror.
Seeing that he didn't seem to believe it, Senior Sister Zhang said again:
"This is my pastime when I'm bored..."
She paused and then said:
"After you came, I wasn't so bored anymore."
Zheng Fa looked at the serious Senior Sister Zhang, and suddenly felt that even though his Creation Jade Disc was still a few Primordial Wildernesss away from the legendary treasure... But at this moment, it seemed to be worth it.
"I don't know if such simplification is worth it."
On Paradise Island, Madam Xuanhua said to Zheng Fa.
When she said this, she was looking at the round Golden Core above her head, her face full of uncertainty.
This Golden Core is floating in the air, tens of meters above the ground, golden, like a small sun, lighting up the Paradise Island misty night.
Zheng Fa is also looking at this Simplified Divine Firmament Golden Core, or... it is Nine Mountains Realm's first nuclear reactor.
The reactions in Golden Core are divided into fusion, fission and mixing.
The last step of mixing, according to Zheng Fa, is to fuse the generated particles with Five Elements Spiritual Qi.
Simplified Golden Core is a nuclear reactor that only produces fusion and fission, and is used purely as energy.
"Thank you for your hard work Madam Xuanhua."
Zheng Fa's thanks are really sincere - Creation Jade Disc, Simplified Golden Core, Madam Xuanhua all take great credit.
"This is not difficult." Madam Xuanhua waved her hands and seemed not to care about Simplified Golden Core's appearance. She brought up the topic of whether it was worth it and said, "It's just... After all, this thing also cost a lot of resources, all for Paradise Island mortals?"
This kind of doubt is not only shared by Madam Xuanhua, but also by the disciples who made Simplified Golden Core, and even by every disciple of the Nine Mountains Sect.
Zheng Fa motioned her to look into the distance.
The location of Simplified Golden Core is exactly in the center of Paradise Island.
From the perspective of Madam Xuanhua, Paradise Island seems to have turned into a firework - from the center to the edge of Paradise Island, street lamps light up one after another, lighting up the villages on the island.
As Nascent Soul True Person, Madam Xuanhua can even hear the admiration and cheers coming from those villages.
She pursed her lips, as if she understood what Zheng Fa meant, but she still had a look of disdain on her face.
Zheng Fa also understands that Madam Xuanhua has a different personality from her own, and what she is like as a mortal is hardly within her scope of consideration.
He doesn't force everyone to think the same as him.
Zheng Fa waved to Madam Xuanhua, and the two walked towards Zheng Fa's home, one after the other.
While walking, Zheng Fa suddenly mentioned something:
"When I first started, I met a senior brother named Zhuang."
Madam Xuanhua looked confused, but still listened quietly.
"He... asked me a question back then."
At that time, Zheng Fa had just entered Nine Mountains Sect and went to the Talisman Debate Pavilion for the first time - and then was treated differently by Senior Brother Zhuang.
As time passed, he actually no longer cared about this matter.
But he always remembered the question of Senior Brother Zhuang.
"He asked me, when Spiritual Qi is abundant, most mortals will not be able to practice and enjoy the power and convenience given by Spiritual Qi."
"But when Spiritual Qi declined, it was they who paid the price for the most part."
"So he thought...Spiritual Qi, or monk, is the poison of the Xuanwei Realm?"
Madam Xuanhua retorted, "How does this compare? Can a Spirit Transformation be the same as a mortal?"
Zheng Fa nodded slightly, seeming to agree with her words, but said nothing.
The two walked towards the yard of Zheng Fa's house in silence.
The villages along the way all have bright street lights.
"Street light" is actually an extremely cheap "Comprehensive Mirror".
To put it simply, it is a signal receiver.
After all, Nine Mountains Realm is different from modern ones - there are Spiritual Qi.
Modern nuclear reactors actually use "boiling water" to store and convert energy, and transmission naturally relies on wires.
But Nine Mountains Realm is different.
Spiritual Qi in the Nine Mountains Realm interferes, causing the cost of wired transmission to be too high.
On average, one set of Shielding Rune is needed every five meters...
The consumption of this spiritual material is too much.
But Nine Mountains Realm has special advantages, and Xiuxian can easily do things that modern technology cannot - such as almost lossless radio wave energy transmission.
Communication Talisman This thing, Zheng Fa, the more I study it, the more amazing it becomes:
In order to ensure the stability of information, the electromagnetic waves in Communication Talisman are lossless during propagation...
Therefore, today's Nine Mountains street lights actually rely on Variant Communication Talisman to spread light.
In this way, the street lights on Paradise Island only need to analyze Communication Talisman, and even the light thing is the electromagnetic wave generated by Golden Core...
In other words, the Nine Mountains Realm street light not only does not need wires, it does not even need to emit light by itself, so it does not even have light-emitting components.
This thing has extremely low cost and very long service life.
Zheng Fa took Madam Xuanhua to the door of his yard.
In the yard, little sister Zheng Shan's laughing voice was heard:
"Mom! This light is so bright!"
The little sister is talking about a street lamp at the entrance of the courtyard.
To be honest, this is considered favoritism...
In other words, it was the careful thoughts of those disciples when planning the street lights.
After all, street lights are not without cost, so they are not installed in homes now, but it is naturally very particular about whose house they are closer to.
No, there is a light at the entrance of the Zheng Family courtyard...
What happened was indisputable, no one was surprised, it happened naturally.
Zheng Fa had known this, but he didn't stop it, nor did he want to stop it - he cared about the Nine Mountains Realm, but the one who cared most about him was naturally his relatives and friends.
So he did not refute Madam Xuanhua.
The two walked into the small courtyard and saw Mother Zheng standing in the courtyard, squinting and looking at the street lights outside the courtyard.
The streetlight was very bright, illuminating Mother Zheng's face.
Working hard all day long in the early years left Mother Zheng with some wrinkles on his face.
Even though Zheng Fa has been teaching her martial arts, Mother Zheng's progress is not fast... It's not just a matter of talent, but the education she and Zheng Fa, and even her younger sister Zheng Shan, received since childhood are different.
When faced with many things, she would always have the idea that she was not good enough, and she would not even be curious. Sometimes, when Zheng Fa was talking to people about cultivating immortals, she would leave consciously.
In fact, I feel that cultivating immortality is far away from me and is beyond my reach.
This, in Zheng Fa's opinion... is the easiest thing to do to prevent people from making progress.
Today, the wrinkles on Mother Zheng's face have relaxed somewhat, and his eyes looking at the street lights are filled with rare curiosity.
"Is this... a lamp?"
She asked Zheng Fa.
Zheng Fa nodded.
"It's so bright... much brighter than a candle," Mother Zheng asked again, "How is this thing made?"
Zheng Fa was not impatient because Mother Zheng had no cultivation, but explained softly what Golden Core was and what Simplified Golden Core was.
Mother Zheng also listened more carefully than usual.
After a long time, Mother Zheng nodded slowly.
"Cultivation is a good thing."
Madam Xuanhua is a little confused, who doesn't know that it is good to cultivate immortality?
Did Zheng Fa's mother only find out today?
Unexpectedly, Mother Zheng slowly said with his fingers:
"More food is produced than before."
"There are more dishes than before."
She looked at the several acres of vegetable gardens in the corner of the yard and said with a smile.
Then, she looked at the street lights in the sky.
"The lights are also brighter than before."
Zheng Fa listened to Mother Zheng's comments without looking at Madam Xuanhua, but Madam Xuanhua somehow understood one thing--
Sometimes, these few words of Mother Zheng may make Zheng Fa think it is worth it.
Mother Zheng's goodness was different from what she had previously understood as the goodness of cultivating immortals. What was the difference, she couldn't quite explain.
If Zheng Fa were to explain it, it would probably be - money is a good thing, and science is also a good thing, but these two things are not the same in terms of good.
Madam Xuanhua said goodbye to Zheng Fa and the others, and walked from Paradise Island towards Myriad Immortals Island.
Somehow, she always notices things that she never noticed before--
After a day's hard work, several farmers were moving small stools and sitting under the lamp, enjoying their rare leisure.
There was a young man who did not look wealthy, standing under the street lamp, holding a textbook from the school, and was reading softly silently.
The fields have also become different. Some lights have been installed in several experimental fields, and several agricultural students are standing in them, seeming to record something:
Madam Xuanhua knows that this is a new project set up by Zheng Fa. It seems to be to explore the impact of light on many Nine Mountains Realm crops, in order to further increase Nine Mountains Realm's grain production.
As she walked, she suddenly understood why Zheng Fa mentioned that Senior Brother Zhuang:
Faced with Senior Brother Zhuang's question, her answer was refutation.
But Zheng Fa's answer is these--
Spiritual Qi, the monk, in the Xuanwei Realm, may be the source of mortal suffering.
But in the Nine Mountains Realm it is different.
She stopped slightly and looked in the direction of Zheng Fa's house. She didn't know which answer was more realistic, but she knew which answer would be more convincing to the monk named Zhuang.
Simplified Golden Core changed not only the appearance of Paradise Island, but also Economic Development Island.
Compared with the simple street lights of Paradise Island, the changes of Economic Development Island are much more exaggerated - the facades of many shops have become colorful, and the signboards are even more brilliant.
The light in the store is designed very skillfully and shines on the goods. The monks who come here for the first time always stop frequently without realizing it and can't help but open their storage bags.
In fact, there were quite a lot of these "special effects" in some big-name stores in the past.
But there is no place like Economic Development Island, where even shops opened by mortals can be so gorgeous and exquisite. Hundreds of shops together reflect the night sky much softer, making the eyes of those monks who have never seen such a scene become exhausted.
Economic Development Island is already booming these days:
Business people long for stability... Nowadays, Xuanwei Realm is becoming chaotic, and the news of Devil Ancestor's birth has spread all over the world, making people panic. Nine Mountains Realm's current stability is naturally very precious.
On the other hand, the reputation of External Core is also growing, especially some Foundation Establishment monks, who are even willing to spend all their money to buy one to increase their strength.
Nowadays, Nine Mountains Sect and even External Core have to be sold for a limited time--the output is only one per month.
People on Economic Development Island were walking among the shadows of the streaming lights. When the situation in the Xuanwei Realm became increasingly tense, they actually felt the long-lost scene of the prosperous age.
"This is Nine Mountains Sect?"
A woman looked left and right with interest, and suddenly asked the man next to her.
The man nodded.
"What do you have to betray this sect?" The woman's eyes widened, "Do you think your life is too comfortable?"
Chen Ting twitched the corner of his mouth, looking at the bright lights on Economic Development Island, the expression on his face was like a world away--
It didn't look like this when I defected from the Nine Mountains Sect!
