Chapter 585 [Question]

  Just now when Lu Shaoyuan saw Fang Chang's appearance, his expression suddenly shook, but he held back his emotions and did not disturb him from weaving the bamboo basket.

  Because he remembered, he had seen this person back then—at first he went back and got beaten for some things. Later, when he was working as a librarian in the library of Xingqing Mansion, he met this Mr. Fang again, who was good friends with the two Mr. Jian who taught him.

   I really didn't expect that what I met back then was a fairy, Lu Shaoyuan thought to himself. No wonder after so many years, the appearance of the other party has not changed at all, allowing him to recognize it without any effort.

   "Mr. Fang, we meet again." Lu Shaoyuan had already calmed down. He sat by the desk and took the teacup, and said calmly.

"I remember you, you are 'equivalent exchange'." Fang Chang actually recognized the other party earlier than Lu Shaoyuan, because his eyesight is far better than Lu Shaoyuan, and his memory is much stronger than Lu Shaoyuan, "The last time I saw you, I was still in the In the library of Xingqing Mansion, you are now on your way to official career, gratifying to congratulate."

   "The days when I was in charge of books in Xingqing Mansion was the time when I made the fastest progress in my life. When I think about it now, I often miss it." Lu Shaoyuan said with a smile.

  Seeing that the two of them are familiar with each other, the emperor next to him is not calm.

   I didn't expect that just by visiting an immortal, I would find out that I have connections with several important ministers around me. This feeling is not very good.

  After a few words of reminiscence, Fang Chang turned to the Emperor.

Just wanting to quickly understand the matter and restore his clean life, Fang Chang didn't have too much politeness, and asked the emperor in front of him straight to the point: "I don't know that your majesty has traveled thousands of miles to come to me, a person in the mountains, so tireless, what did you do?" What's the matter? You may as well speak up."

   Human Sovereign hesitated for a while, and then the other party talked about the issue he was most concerned about, but Lu Shaoyuan didn't make a sound, just listened carefully with his ears on the side. After all, for such a long time, everyone has not been able to figure out what the Emperor is thinking. It is very important information to write down this answer and take it home.

   "I don't know, do I have the qualifications and opportunities to walk on the road of immortality? Can I live forever? After asking around, I found that I can only find real immortals to solve this question"

Fang Chang shook his head and said: "No, Your Majesty has no predestined relationship with cultivating immortality. It cannot be changed, nor can it be forcibly twisted. And this is not a common phenomenon. But the masters of the world will not have the opportunity to enter the cultivation of immortals, because the two sides The road and the system are clearly separated, and they are strangers."

   "I see..." Human Sovereign was a little disappointed, and lowered his head slightly.

   On the other hand, Lu Shaoyuan next to him took a long breath quietly and continued to listen to the following content.

However, Human Sovereign's loss was only for a short moment, and he sighed half with emotion and half to comfort himself: "I am not ignorant of things, and I have thought a lot. Now it seems that longevity is nothing more than a momentary delusion. Although it is tempting, but There is no point where it must be, and there is no need to force it.”

  Fang Chang nodded and praised.

  I only heard that Renhuang quickly changed the subject, and then asked: "Then, can the method of cultivating immortals be broadcast to the world and benefit the people of the world?"

   Lu Shaoyuan next to him was very surprised. He didn't know why the Emperor, who had always had a bad opinion of strokes in the exchanges among his courtiers, didn't continue to pester Xiuxian and Changsheng, but asked the common people.

   Fortunately, Fang Chang has seen a lot of travels, so he was not surprised by this. He shook his head and said decisively: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible for the matter of cultivating immortals to spread widely in the world."

The Emperor was slightly puzzled, and he said: "Whether it is the teachings of the emperors before he succeeded to the throne, or the advice of the important ministers recently, I have kept them in my heart, and I have been thinking about it day and night. I am not a stupid person who does not understand things. , even if it can be regarded as a little income, now that the real immortal is in front of me, please explain to me why the method of cultivating immortals cannot be promoted in the world?"

   Fang Chang smiled and said:

"In human affairs, it is natural to follow the way of others. Cultivation, after all, must pay attention to a predestined method. If there is no predestined relationship, it will be useless to force him to listen to the way and techniques of cultivating immortals. Moreover, If all the people in the world are obsessed with seeking immortality, who will weave and spin and who will harvest the bamboo?"

"After all, it must be the food and utensils produced by the people that make the people live and work in peace and contentment. Only progress in this area can make progress in the world. Practitioners are only embellishments in the development of civilization and cannot become protagonists. The real world between heaven and earth The protagonists in this book are mortals and all living beings in the world, so don't confuse them."

  Hearing what Fang Chang said, Human Sovereign relieved his doubts a bit, nodded and said: "I see."

   These words were quite sincere, but Fang Chang continued to tell him: "The people in the world are the weakest, but they are also the strongest. If you don't want to perish for the second generation, you must do better."

"For example, when I was walking back from the East Sea some time ago, I saw a severe drought in a state, and the imperial court could only provide relief, which was far from enough. If there were canals and ditches all over the place, irrigation would be convenient, and floods and droughts are far more dependent on people than on the sky. Eat, this is the progress I just mentioned."

"I once knew a man, surnamed Wei Minghe, who was doing things all over the world. He was very good at water conservancy repairs, and he was determined to devote his life to this cause, but he only participated in things in various places, and the support he could get from the court was limited. More support from people like Wei He is also a kind of progress.

  The emperor broke out in a cold sweat when he said these words, especially the sentence "If you don't want the second generation to die", he was a little ashamed, because he didn't pay much attention to the drought, which is really wrong now that he thinks about it. Then he remembered the name Wei He, and recalled that Lu Shaoyuan had mentioned this person before, so he secretly wrote it down for promotion later.

  But I heard Fang Xianren on the opposite side say: "As for the matter of longevity, we can find another way."

   "Oh?" "Huh?" Human Emperor and Lu Shaoyuan uttered together.

Fang Chang smiled and said: "But it's not the kind of longevity you think. After all, in addition to longevity, people can also make their deeds and virtues live longer. As high-ranking and powerful people, I hope you will keep the common people in your heart. As long as you do things well, Thousands of years later, people still remember that the so-called civilization is immortal.”

   Renhuang and Lu Shaoyuan saluted together, Qi claimed yes.

"I didn't prepare food here, and I won't keep you here. Here are a few grass pills, which were refined by a friend of mine surnamed Sang. Although they can't prolong life, they are still very effective in strengthening the body and eliminating diseases and evils. You can take them with you. "Fang Chang threw a herbal medicine bottle to each of them.

  Although the cover is tight, you can still feel the smell of medicine inside. Renhuang and Lu Shaoyuan hurriedly put away and put away.

Then Fang Chang stood up, took out an object from the corner of the Unnamed Hall, walked back and handed it to the Emperor: "This small chiming clock was made in my spare time. Give it to Your Majesty. It can be used to watch the time, and I will leave it for now." Just a memento."
