Chapter 252: Words are not important, meaning is not important, look at the person

"Let your master continue to break through. Come on, uncle will take you home to see the goldfish." Gongsun Ce patted Xiao Meng's head.

Xiao Meng looked at Gongsun Ce with dissatisfaction, and then gave her hand to Gongsun Ce to hold.

"What do you want to eat?" Gongsun Ce asked Xiao Meng, "Taoists and Yin-Yangists all eat light food. You can't just eat vegetarian food as you are growing."

"Roasted lamb leg, milk tofu, braised beef..." Xiao Meng was not going to be polite with Gongsun Ce and listed more than a dozen dishes in one breath.

"Okay, I'll slaughter cattle and sheep for you when I get back."

Gongsun Ce let go of Xiao Meng's hand, reached down with his right hand, and picked Xiao Meng up.

Then Gongsun Ce put his left hand around the slender waist of Haotian Goddess, took a step forward, and activated his infinite magical power. The three of them immediately appeared in the backyard of Taiwei Mansion.

"little Master."

"Mr. Gongsun."
Gongsun Ce was in a very good mood as he looked at the beautiful girls in the yard.

The next morning, Gongsun Ce appeared in Zhangtai Palace, and Ying Zheng was still diligently handling government affairs.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gongsun, for your great improvement." Ying Zheng saw Gongsun Ce enter Zhangtai Palace and put down the fountain pen in his hand.

"A Zheng, there is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?" Gongsun Ce asked Ying Zheng directly, which surprised Ying Zheng a little.

"bad news."

"This is our world." Gongsun Ce picked up the pen that Ying Zheng had put down and drew a circle on a piece of bamboo paper, then drew another circle, "This is another world.

Our world is about to merge with this world, and then many people and things will appear in our world.

For the Qin Dynasty, which has not yet been completely unified, this will have a huge impact and will be detrimental to the subsequent governance of the Central Plains."

"good news?"

“The good news is that this world that is about to merge into is slightly more developed than our world.

Simply put, crops and daily necessities are more complete.

For example, the paper we are using now is the bamboo paper I made.

The other world uses white paper, which is made of materials such as tree pulp.

Relatively speaking, white paper is easier to make than bamboo paper, and has a higher output.”

After Gongsun Ce finished speaking, he looked at Ying Zheng quietly. Ying Zheng thought for a moment, and many questions arose in his mind, but he knew that he needed to ask the key questions first.

"Is there a big country on the other side? How strong is the country? Are there any warriors? How strong are they?"

"There is only one great country, named Tang." Gongsun Ce picked up a brush and began to draw a simple map of the Ever Night world. "There are many other countries, but except for Tang, the other countries generally believe in Haotian.

Haotian has his own temple, called Xiling Temple, which has many practitioners and temple cavalry.

The other side has warriors, but they are at most at the level of a late Grandmaster. However, the other side has cultivators. "

After the map was drawn, Ying Zheng had a certain understanding of the world of Ever Night.

Gongsun Ce then began to simply write down the realm of Jiang Ye's cultivation:

First acquaintance (third rate) → Perception (second rate) → No doubt (first rate) → Mystery (Grandmaster) → Knowing destiny (Grandmaster) →
The sixth realm (half-step to the unity of heaven and man) → the seventh realm (the first level of the unity of heaven and man) → the eighth realm (the second level of the unity of heaven and man) → the ninth realm (the third level of the unity of heaven and man)

"Why are the sixth realm and the realms after it nameless? How many beings are there above the sixth realm? How many people are there in the ninth realm?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly as he looked at the names written by Gongsun Ce.

This had a great impact on Ying Zheng, making him want to slow down.

"There are many names for the realms above the sixth realm. Different sixth realms have many wonderful uses. A person can attain different sixth realms at the same time. The same is true for the seventh realm.

Only the eighth and ninth realms currently have single names, so I haven't listed them all.

There is only one person in the ninth realm opposite, named Master, who is similar to a combination of Confucius, Laozi and other sages of the Hundred Schools of Thought.

The eighth realm does not exist temporarily."

"I see." Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but his brows were still furrowed. "If the Master takes action, can Mr. Gongsun resist?"

"Of course you can. But Ah Zheng doesn't have to worry about the Master. He is a person who lives outside the world. As long as the dynasty doesn't cause trouble for him, he generally won't care when the dynasty changes."

Gongsun Ce smiled after saying this. He thought about Ying Zheng's desire to practice and live forever. The drunkard and the butcher were both in the sixth realm, but they had lived for at least a thousand years, which showed that the life span of the sixth realm was long enough.

"Actually, A Zheng, you can try to practice the opposite method. The opposite practice method is completely different from martial arts. It focuses on the degree of penetration of the Qi Sea and Snow Mountain's seventeen orifices.

When the Qi Hai Xue Shan is connected to the ten acupoints, one can practice cultivation, and this mode of cultivation focuses on the state of mind. When the state of mind reaches the standard, the realm will naturally rise without the need for deliberate practice.

I have seen two practitioners at the sixth level before, and they have lived for thousands of years."

"Qi Hai Xue Shan? Please explore it for me, sir." Ying Zheng suddenly became interested in the cultivation methods of the Ever Night world.

Gongsun Ce placed his hands on Ying Zheng's shoulders, and his mental power silently entered Ying Zheng's Qi Hai Xue Shan. Then Gongsun Ce discovered that ten of the seventeen acupoints of Ying Zheng's Qi Hai Xue Shan were open.

"What a coincidence, there are exactly ten orifices." Gongsun Ce retracted his hand, "A Zheng, my telekinesis just entered your Qi Hai Xue Shan, how did you feel?"

"I don't feel anything." Ying Zheng shook his head. "Is it because I am not suitable for this method?"

"We need to take another look. Ah Zheng, close your eyes. I will guide you in your first meditation. Tell me what you see during meditation."

After saying this, Gongsun Ce placed his hand on Ying Zheng's brow, and used his mental power to guide Ying Zheng to meditate.

Gongsun Ce closed his eyes and concentrated. An invisible mental force slowly overflowed from his body and wrapped around Ying Zheng like a thin thread.

Ying Zheng did not feel the existence of this mental power, but an inexplicable throbbing surged in his heart.

He closed his eyes, guided by Gongsun Ce's mental power, and began his first meditation.

Under the guidance of Gongsun Ce, Ying Zheng's consciousness gradually broke away from the constraints of the real world and entered a dark space.

There seems to be no boundaries here, only endless darkness. This is Ying Zheng’s own Qi Hai Snow Mountain.

However, in this darkness, there is a warm force quietly surging, and that is the elemental force of heaven and earth.

"Relax, don't think about anything, leave everything to me, and remember this feeling."

Gongsun Ce's voice sounded in Ying Zheng's mind, like the sound of nature, guiding him to feel this power.

Ying Zheng relaxed his body and mind, allowing this mental power to control his consciousness and enter the Qi Hai Snow Mountain.

Gradually, he felt a cool current flowing in from the top of his head and flowing towards the ten acupoints that penetrated the Qi Hai Snow Mountain.

This is the primordial force of heaven and earth, which flows like a trickle in Ying Zheng’s sea of ​​qi and snow-capped mountains.

As the elemental energy of heaven and earth continued to flow in, Ying Zheng's consciousness began to become clearer.

He seemed to see a vast world. Between this world and heaven, there was nothing but a small stream, crystal clear and flowing.

Although this stream is not big, it appears exceptionally pure and lively.

Ying Zheng was deeply attracted by the stream. His consciousness began to focus on the stream, feeling its flow and changes.

"A Zheng, what did you see?" Ever since Ying Zheng could no longer feel the telekinesis, Gongsun Ce guessed that Ying Zheng did not have a good talent for practicing telekinesis.

However, detecting talent cannot rely solely on a person's sensitivity to telekinesis, but also requires looking at what he sees during meditation.

Gongsun Ce knew that Ying Zheng had seen a source of water. The size of the water source that a practitioner of Jiang Ye saw during his first meditation represented the practitioner's talent for cultivation.

"It's a small stream, the water is so clear that you can see the bottom." Ying Zheng answered truthfully.

The size of this water source made Gongsun Ce feel both unexpected and reasonable.

It is said that when Sword Saint Liu Bai was meditating for the first time, he saw a big river, so Liu Bai went on to comprehend the sword intent of the river.

However, Liu Bai's talent can be ranked among the top five in the Ever Night world.

Therefore, even if Ying Zheng saw only a small stream, it can show that his talent is above average.

However, considering Ying Zheng's low sensitivity to telekinesis, Gongsun Ce decided that Ying Zheng's talent should be average, neither high nor low.

Gongsun Ce stopped guiding, and Ying Zheng quickly woke up.

"A Zheng, your talent for practicing telekinesis can only be considered average, neither high nor low. So, are you ready to practice this method?"

"This?" Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment, "May I ask, sir, is there a cultivation method suitable for me, or a cultivation method suitable for the emperor?"

"Logically speaking, you are suitable for the method of cultivating luck. The stronger the luck of a country, the stronger you will be." Gongsun Ce said bluntly, "It's just that I don't know this method.

I have no idea how long it will take to achieve results if I start researching from scratch.”

"The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors relied on the power of legends to achieve the state of unity between man and nature. Can I practice with the power of legends?" Ying Zheng asked.

“If you practice with the power of legend, you must bear the backlash brought about by the loss of the power of legend. The same goes for the method of practicing luck.” Gongsun Ce shrugged.

As the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes. Gongsun Ce originally wanted Ying Zheng to retire directly when he reached the age, but now it seems that there have been new changes.

If Ying Zheng practiced other methods, there would be a possibility of escaping unscathed.

But once Ying Zheng began to practice the method of destiny, he had no choice but to go down this path and stay in the position of King of Qin, sharing the same destiny with the country.

"Mr. Gongsun, how do I obtain the method of cultivating my luck?"

"Perhaps, I need to go to another world. Perhaps, after a period of time, I will understand it. It's hard to say."

"Forget it, I still have time, I can wait." Ying Zheng changed the subject, "Now the State of Wei has almost been incorporated into the territory of our Great Qin.

It is expected that by the end of next year, the State of Wei will be completely conquered. What do you think should be done next? "

"We can also take over Yan State. I will use the secret agents in Yan State to cooperate with General Wang Jian to take over Yan State. The other side of the world will be integrated into our world within one or two years.

We must unify the Central Plains as soon as possible and resolve the internal conflicts. After conquering Yan and Wei, we will concentrate our forces to attack Chu!"

"Zhao Gao!" Ying Zheng shouted. He had 100% trust in Gongsun Ce's judgment, so Ying Zheng decisively gave the order and ordered Wang Jian to attack the State of Yan fiercely.

"I am here." Zhao Gao came over in response. "Order Wang Jian to work with the Taiwei's secret agents in Yan State to attack Yan State. We must conquer Yan State before Wei State is conquered."

"promise!"

Zhao Gao immediately began to assist Ying Zheng in drafting an edict, and soon an edict was sent to Wang Jian's army.

After finishing the important business, Ying Zheng took out a design drawing from under the table and handed it to Gongsun Ce.

"Mr. Gongsun, this is the design of the Twelve Golden Men presented by Gongshujia. However, the power problem is difficult to solve. I wonder if Mr. Gongsun has any clues?"

"A Zheng, do you really think I can do anything?" Gongsun Ce was a little embarrassed, "But I do have a clue about the source of this thing's energy.

The power of legend has many limitations on personal improvement, but I can purify the power of legend and use it as the energy source for the Twelve Golden Men.

However, the source of the power of legend is the word "faith", so the legend of the Twelve Golden Men can begin to spread, so that the entire Qin Dynasty can believe that the Twelve Golden Men have amazing fighting power, and then the Twelve Golden Men can be invincible. "

"it is good!"

Ying Zheng slammed the table. The mecha model made by Gongshu Chou successfully aroused Ying Zheng's obsession with mecha. Now that he had the ability to build a real large-scale mecha, Ying Zheng suddenly became a little excited.

After the excitement, Ying Zheng looked at Gongsun Ce. He said nothing, just stared at Gongsun Ce.

"Okay." Gongsun Ce rubbed his brows, "I will build a model according to the blueprints, and you can test drive it first."

There was no change in Ying Zheng's expression, but the slight joy that unconsciously flashed in his eyes revealed Ying Zheng's inner joy at the moment.

Gongsun Ce rubbed his brows after leaving Zhangtai Palace. He found that he and Ying Zheng were sometimes unexpectedly easy to please.

The first thing Gongsun Ce did after leaving Zhangtai Palace was to go to Gongshu's house. With his magical power of Wuju, it was only a matter of one step for him to reach Gongshu's forge.

"Greetings to General Gongsun."*2
Gongsun Ce's sudden appearance really scared Master Ban and Gongshu Chou.

Gongsun Ce discovered that the two were also discussing the casting of the Twelve Golden Men, and the design drawings of the Twelve Golden Men were placed in front of them.

"You two are also thinking about the casting of the twelve golden men?"

"Yes." Gongshu Chou pointed to the runes on the design drawing, "The Twelve Golden Men are designed entirely based on the prototype of the Military Demon God.

But the meanings of many runes on the Soldier Demon God are unclear, so we can only copy them, so we are exploring the functions of these runes. "

The runes on the body of the Soldier Demon God evolved from hieroglyphics, so the meaning of some runes can be inferred, but more runes are difficult to identify.

Because the text is so ancient, there is no documentation to verify it.

Even if the two of them looked through the literature on Cangjie's creation of characters for comparison, they were still guessing and confused.

"The runes are not important." Gongsun Ce raised his right index finger and shook it. "The meaning of the runes is not important either. The key is what the people who use these characters want them to mean. Watch carefully!"

Gongsun Ce's right index finger, middle finger and thumb rotated clockwise in the air.

The next moment, the word representing fire appeared in the seven countries' languages.

There is not much difference in the simple strokes of the seven languages, so they can still be distinguished.

However, there will be great differences in characters with more complex strokes.

Seven fire characters were rotating around Gongsun Ce. Gongsun Ce snapped his fingers and the seven fire characters instantly turned into seven fireballs.

Gongsun Ce snapped his fingers again, and the seven fire characters returned to their original shape. They surrounded the candle next to it and sucked away the flame on it, and the candle was immediately extinguished.

"Do you understand?" Gongsun Ce waved his hand and removed the seven fire characters. "In other words, if I write a ligature, it can represent connection, continuity, and chain...

What it can do depends on my ideas, not what it should mean.”

Gongshu Chou and Master Ban nodded and understood what Gongsun Ce meant.

The characters on the God of War were written according to Chi You's will. What role they can play depends entirely on Chi You's thoughts, not the original meaning of the words.

After all, just looking at the word "well", who would have thought that this thing could block the energy of heaven and earth, imprison individuals, and cut objects.

But it just happened to have this effect in Yan Se's hands.

Just because a talisman master draws a talisman doesn't mean they can fully understand the talisman's capabilities.

The power of the talisman needs to be constantly explored by the talisman master, the original meaning of the words, the form of the words...explore the power of the talisman from the root of the words.

Therefore, when a talisman master is looking for a successor, he will look for one with good handwriting. The better the handwriting, the more understanding the person has about words, and the faster he can write words. These are the qualities that a talisman master should possess.

Gongsun Ce picked up the paperweight that was pressing down the design drawing, and the next moment the paperweight broke into four pieces in Gongsun Ce's hand.

An alchemy array emerged under the paperweight that was split into four pieces, and then the four paperweight fragments turned into four seals.

Lian: connect-connect the parts of the Twelve Golden Men.

Sense: Sensing - transmitting personal will to the twelve golden men, completing the control of the twelve golden men with will.

Gu: Reinforce - strengthen the overall structure of the Twelve Golden Men and enhance defense.

Flow: circulation - the energy of the power furnace can be transmitted to the twelve golden men to complete the energy supply.

Gongsun Ce threw four seals that were shining with a bright light to Gongshu Chou and told him how to use them.

"So that's it. This is the core rune of the Demon God of War." Gongshu Chou looked at the seal in his hand and nodded.

"It's an exquisite work of art." Then Master Ban couldn't wait to snatch the seal from Gongshu Chou's hand and take a closer look.

"I will personally make a model of the Twelve Golden Men later. Please watch carefully. You two will be responsible for building the remaining eleven Twelve Golden Men."

Gongsun Ce waved his hand, emptied all the metals in Gongshu's house, and then took the metals to the outside of the forge.

In fact, with Gongsun Ce's current attainments in alchemy, he could completely hollow out the mountain and cast the twelve golden men.

However, Gongsun Ce still hoped that the two old guys would suddenly have a flash of inspiration and come up with some black technology, so he could only take his time and do a good job.

Gongsun Ce looked at the sky. It was not yet noon, but he should be able to complete the manufacture of the model machine before dark.

Gongsun Ce recalled the design drawings and determined every detail of building the twelve golden men.

Bronze, silver, red gold, black iron, meteorite iron... a variety of metals were displayed in large quantities in front of Gongsun Ce.

Word Spirit: Blazing
Gongsun Ce waved his right hand lightly, and a stream of blazing flames instantly burst out from his palm, enveloping the surrounding metals one by one.

Under Gongsun Ce's control, the flames jumped like obedient elves, gradually melting the metal into boiling liquid.

Under Gongsun Ce's mental control, these liquid metals turned into exquisite metal parts.

Gears, bearings, housings...

Word Spirit·Evolution

There was a gleam in Gongsun Ce's eyes as he kept simulating in his mind how the model machine should be assembled and the final product of the model machine.

As the parts gradually took shape, Gongsun Ce began to display his rune skills.

He wrote in the air, and four key runes continued to appear in the air, and then were accurately hit onto each metal part.

These runes flicker with a faint light and have different functions, but they can ensure that the model machine can run smoothly.

With the blessing of the runes, countless grooves appeared on the surface of metal parts.

The connection between them also becomes closer and more perfect, as if they were a natural whole.

A satisfied smile appeared on Gongsun Ce's face. He knew that these runes would give the Twelve Golden Men powerful mobility.

The next step is assembly. Gongsun Ce puts the parts together one by one according to the order on the design drawing.

First, the feet and legs are assembled, followed by the torso, hands, and arms.

Each step requires extremely precise and meticulous operation, and the slightest mistake may lead to the failure of the entire Jin man.

However, Gongsun Ce seemed to be at ease. His hands shuttled between the metal parts like attracting butterflies through flowers. Every movement seemed so smooth and natural.

As the assembly progressed, a huge golden man image gradually appeared before people.

It is a hundred meters tall, with an upright and majestic posture, as if it is a god from ancient times.

An even more excited glow appeared on Gongsun Ce's face, he knew that he was not far from success.

Finally, the internal power reactor is assembled and activated.

The power furnace is one of the core components of the Twelve Golden Men, and it is responsible for providing the golden men with a steady supply of energy support.

Gongsun Ce carefully installed the power furnace in the golden man's chest, and then injected a portion of the energy of heaven and earth into the power furnace.

With the injection of the elemental power of heaven and earth, bursts of rumbling sounds began to come from inside the power furnace.

Immediately afterwards, the power reactor lit up with a dazzling red light, illuminating the entire golden man in red.

This marked that one of the Twelve Golden Men had successfully assembled and activated its power reactor.

Gongsun Ce then entered the model machine and looked at the structure inside the model machine which was similar to that of the Soldier Demon God. Gongsun Ce nodded.

Gongsun Ce controlled the hundred-meter-tall Jin man and began to act.

It took a slow step at first, then gradually quickened its pace and ran.

Its movements are so smooth and coordinated, as if it were a real living being moving freely.

A satisfied smile appeared on Gongsun Ce's face. The model was perfect. Except for its strength which could not match that of the Demon God for the time being, the model had almost no defects.

The golden man continued to demonstrate its abilities: jumping, clenching fists, lifting weights... every movement seemed so natural, without the slightest sense of mechanicalness.

"Clap clap clap..."

Gongshu Qiu and Master Ban looked at the model machine in front of them that was constantly performing difficult moves, and they could only applaud.
