Because of Gu Yan's narration.
These people finally realized in a trance.
The True Immortal in front of them had not only mastered all kinds of immortal techniques and divine abilities. Since ancient times, countless sages and saints had bitterly pursued the truth of the world. The truth of the world was also in his hands!
Li Shimin was moved.
He was really moved.
In his life, there were two things that he cared about the most. One was power, and the other was reputation.
As an emperor, he wanted to leave a good name for future generations. Needless to say, only in this way could he cover up his shortcomings.
His position was not right.
Now, although he had an additional goal of becoming an immortal, reputation was also his goal.
Even if he could not achieve the level that Immortal Gu had described, as long as he could survive this catastrophe and create a prosperous world, his reputation would be comparable to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors of ancient times!
What kind of reputation would that be!
What kind of merit would that be!
"Immortal Gu." Li Shimin cupped his hands and bowed to Gu Yan with a longing expression. "Today, after hearing Immortal Gu's words, I know that the truth that countless sages sought is actually right in front of me. For the sake of the people in this world, I will be thick-skinned this time. I beg Immortal Gu to tell me how to obtain the truth of the mortal world!"
"Please tell me, Immortal Gu!" The civil and military officials also bowed in unison.
They were also trembling.
The people of this dynasty did not care much about the common people, but most of them valued their reputation very much.
Moreover.
If they could really achieve the scene that Immortal Gu had described, then the benefits that these people and these aristocratic families could obtain were also unimaginable.
Even the common people could live the same life as the emperor.
Then how would the lives of scholars like them be?
This was an extremely rare thing. From the emperor to the officials to the common people, everyone could benefit from this.
"You're asking the wrong person for help." Gu Yan shook his head. "The truth of the mortal world is the truth of the existence of all things in the mortal world. Ordinary immortals only know about it, but they don't know why. If they really have something to ask, they can only ask Senior Clove."
"Fairy Clove?" Li Shimin and the others were shocked.
But then they understood.
That's right. Immortal Gu had said this more than once.
Fairy Clove could see through all things in the world.
That naturally included the principles of the mortal world!
"Senior Clove has a great ability. Everyone in the Heaven Realm knows about it." Gu Yan revealed a respectful expression as he cupped his hands and bowed towards the sky. "Every single time you arrive at a world, you only need an instant to understand the geography, history, characters, inheritances, knowledge, culture, and so on and so forth of that world, and you'll never forget it. Not to mention all of you, even immortals like me are far from being able to compare to you in terms of wisdom and knowledge."
"Hiss …"
Li Shimin and the officials all revealed an indescribable look of shock.
He actually had such a great divine ability!
This was indeed a great divine ability!
When one came to a new world, one only needed an instant to understand all the principles of this world.
And how many mortal worlds did the Immortal Monarchs govern?
How much knowledge and wisdom had this Fairy Clove accumulated?
No wonder Immortal Gu said that only Fairy Clove could help them in the mortal world.
Not to mention Li Shimin, the civil and military officials were so excited that their bodies were trembling, especially some of the civil officials and the great scholars of the current era!
They had painstakingly studied the teachings of the saints for their entire lives and regarded it as a sacred scripture. But now, a great divine ability that far surpassed all the sages and saints was right in front of them!
If they could get some guidance from the fairy …
To them, they would probably be able to benefit for the rest of their lives and even die without regrets!
"If one hears the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening. If one hears the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening!" Kong Yingda, a great scholar with a white beard, even rushed out of the main hall and knelt down excitedly towards the immortal palace in the sky. "Yingda studied Confucianism and studied all my life for the sake of the truth. I hope that the immortal will take pity on me and teach me the Dao. Yingda will die in peace!"
It wasn't just him. The other scholars and officials knelt down one after another.
In this era.
Some scholars' pursuit of knowledge was already beginning to show.
At this moment, Shen Yi was quite satisfied when he saw this scene.
Gu Yan's words were naturally not said casually.
Among the tasks that Shen Yi gave him, there was a task of "promoting the development of civilization while you're at it."
From an agricultural civilization that had not changed much for a thousand years to a rapidly developing industrial civilization, it was actually a leap of one or two hundred years. Since he was here, speeding up this process was just a matter of convenience.
As long as he succeeded in fighting against the apocalypse.
Then this world would be able to quickly enter a period of development, and would not continue to waste thousands of years in the agricultural period after the productivity had weakened.
And Gu Yan's performance also gave Shen Yi a pleasant surprise.
The difficulty of this task was originally to make the people of this world take the initiative to ask for it, and not be passively given by the association.
But Gu Yan used the magic of the transport plane.
With just a few words, he had aroused the desire of the natives of this world for the "truth."
"Not bad." Shen Yi praised.
The other three listened. Although they were a little envious, they had to admit.
If it were them.
They could only do this at most, and it would be difficult to do better.
However, Shen Yi was not prepared to directly let Clove broaden the horizons of these people. Instead, he was prepared to forgive them for a period of time. The more difficult it was to obtain, the more they would cherish it.
This spirit of seeking knowledge also needed to be deeply engraved in this civilization.
At this moment.
Gu Yan did not intend to stay here any longer. He still had the task of killing evil spirits.
"The truth of the mortal world is also the Dao." He finally reminded, "The Dao cannot be passed down lightly. Senior Clove can judge good and evil, and listen to the virtuous and the foolish. Whether you can ask for it or not depends on you. The three of you, come with me. We have to set off as soon as possible."
"Yes!" Cheng Yaojin and the other two said in unison.
Li Shimin also said gratefully, "Thank you, Immortal Gu, for guiding the Dao. Shimin is very grateful!"
Li Shimin was not stupid. He could naturally see that Immortal Gu's words were a kind reminder. The Dao was right in front of them. If they wanted to ask for it, they had to seize the opportunity!
Although he looked serious, Immortal Gu really cared about the common people!
If they could ask for this Dao.
The ones who would benefit the most were the hard-working people of the world!
Li Shimin slowly took a deep breath.
He also walked in front of Kong Yingda.
He also knelt on the ground.
"Shimin is the king of men. I should seek the Dao for the common people of the world! The determination of my heart! The sun and moon can be my witness! "
With this kneel, all the officials followed!
Among them, some were for fame, some were for benefits, and some were for knowledge.
But at this moment, they were all of one mind with one goal.
That was to seek the truth of the mortal world from the true immortals in the heavens, and seek the Dao of the mortal world!
