All things are one — —
The information that Andrew received from behind the door was precisely this short sentence.
But in this short sentence, it contained the true essence of alchemy, and belonged to the language of the universe.
At this moment, he was like a reborn. His entire thinking, his understanding of the world, had undergone earth-shaking changes.
The storm that was like wind, dust, or the sun swept him away, blowing away all the impurities of his past, and ushered in a new, perfect, and powerful self.
This kind of power, was not just strength, but a kind of self-confidence that came from inside out, and a sense of control that he had never had before.
In his eyes, the flow of all things was clearly visible, and all substances were inseparably intertwined and connected with each other.
And that kind of connection, was what Andrew could grasp at this moment.
He felt that, he could cut off these connections at any time, or break them down, or rebuild them — —
If he had to describe this feeling, it was as if he had become a "God" that controlled all substances.
If it was the original Andrew, at this moment he would have been addicted to this omnipotent feeling, and unable to extricate himself, gradually expanding and losing himself, and finally running in an unpredictable direction. One second to remember http://m.9biquge.com
But now, he was incomparably calm, and did not even have the slightest fluctuation in his mood.
His excitement, nervousness, piety, and fanaticism at this moment, were all because of the young man in front of him, the person who gave him this power.
Andrew looked at Lin Jie with a gaze that was close to worship.
If it was not because there was still a trace of reason reminding him that Mr. Lin liked to be treated as an ordinary bookstore owner, he would have shouted "All is one, one is all", and then knelt on the ground, and kissed the ground in front of Mr. Lin to show his loyalty.
"Very good — — not bad, not bad, as expected of a scholar, you've refined the central idea of the book very well, you've also grasped the key information. You've only read for a short while, but your efficiency is very high."
Lin Jie nodded, and said cheerfully.
"All things are one", was naturally the answer to his question, and also the original sentence in "Young Shepherd's Fantastic Journey".
— — From the beginning, he had been using the original sentence and ideas in the book to guide Andrew. This way, when Andrew saw the corresponding sentence in the book, he would also have a sudden realization.
This sentence, including "all is one, and one is all", was a description of alchemy.
In this book, the content about alchemy ran through the entire book, and it was also a very important image. It was not just about mysticism.
Of course, everyone had their own understanding.
You could even interpret this sentence as "Everything in the universe is closely related to each other, so we have to protect the environment. Otherwise, the environment will retaliate one day."
But no matter how he interpreted it, he had to find this keyword first.
"You flatter me. I didn't do anything. It was your selfless gift that allowed me to obtain this precious knowledge."
Andrew said in shame and humility, "Otherwise, I would be in darkness for the rest of my life, unable to see this unprecedented light."
His thoughts had changed so drastically, but he himself did not feel anything strange about it. In fact, he was proud of it.
In Andrew's opinion, the young man in front of him was already an indescribable existence. He was omnipotent, omnipresent, and indescribable. However, it was enough to add all kinds of embellishments.
As for himself, there was no doubt that he was a loyal servant of this great existence.
He would give up everything for the young man!
Lin Jie smiled and said, "Well said, well said. I have always felt that only by being eager to learn can you obtain greater achievements. There is no doubt that you are a person who is eager to learn. Selling this book to you is the best. I believe that you will be able to find the 'alchemy' that will change your life."
Boss Lin reached out and patted Andrew's shoulder. He used a little strength in his hand and emphasized the word "sell".
The previous string of flattery was not the main point. The main point was the word "selfless gift" — this guy seemed to want to get a free meal?
Lin Jie's eyes immediately became sharp.
He stared at Andrew and smiled gently, "But before that, I have to tell you clearly that knowledge is not free. Everything has a price. Just like all the gifts given by fate, the price has already been secretly marked."
Andrew's body trembled slightly. He remembered the infinite light behind the door.
The former Andrew seemed to come back for a moment. Everything in the past was still vivid in his mind, but it seemed to be forever separated by a layer of fog, getting farther and farther away from him.
He already understood that this was the true essence of alchemy — equivalent exchange.
Everything was the same, which meant that everything in the universe was conserved. The more power he gained, the more the price he had to pay.
Maybe … it was his whole life.
But so what?
Andrew suddenly smiled. This was exactly what he wanted!
What was left of his luxurious and powerful life in the end? His favorite lover was controlled by Zerom's potion, betrayed him, and framed him. His power had been taken away by Damon, and he had almost lost his personal freedom.
It was meaningless!
He wanted to pursue the only indestructible eternity in the world, because he had seen the light behind the door!
Andrew said with relief, "I know … but I won't be stingy. This is what I should do, and it is also what I must do."
Why did this guy suddenly feel like he was enlightened?
Lin Jie's expression was strange.
He did not ask Andrew to risk his life for him. Why did he feel like he was ready to sacrifice himself for a righteous cause?
Was his chicken soup too powerful, or did this classic just happen to enlighten him?
Forget it, as long as he was willing to pay.
Lin Jie shook his head and took out his notebook and pen for the first time in a long time. He smiled at the customer and said, "Thank you for your patronage, 45 yuan."

The biting cold wind blew away Michael's hood, revealing his handsome face. His long golden hair scattered and danced in the wind.
His white robe fluttered, and the red cross in his hand was planted on the ground. The tip of the cross was inserted into the hard black frozen soil as he slowly walked forward along the mountain ridge.
Thick layers of snow covered the mountain range like dragon scales. The whistling wind passed through the sky and clouds, but it couldn't blow away the thick gray fog between the mountains. The fog condensed into lightning and huge whirlpools, but in the contrast of this huge, throne-like mountain range, it seemed insignificant.
Michael's eyes were like torches, emitting light. He raised the cross and turned it into an arrow of light that pierced into the mountain.
It was like a bolt of lightning striking down.
"Kacha …"
On the mountain, countless ice dust exploded into mist. The frozen soil and ice layers broke and moved down with a rumble. Huge rocks rolled down.
Michael shouted, "Wake up! Giant King! "
The mountain range trembled and groaned. When it opened its eyes, an incomparably huge palm left the mountain, followed by a huge body.
This was the country of giants — Augustus.
