Meng Junliang said respectfully, "In reply to Young Master Li, I'm not pursuing it anymore. There is no path to immortality in this world."
"Oh?" Li Nianfan raised his eyebrows and looked at Meng Junliang in surprise.
Did he think it through?
"Everything in this world is developing according to its own trajectory. Birth, aging, illness, death, the rising of the sun and the setting of the moon happen all the time. But at the same time, there are thousands of changes. There are all kinds of Dao, but there is no path to immortality!"
Meng Junliang felt that Li Nianfan was testing him, so he answered very seriously. He continued, "During this time, I've been to many places and seen many things that I've never seen before. Even immortals dare to talk about immortality. In my opinion, the key to the Dao of this world lies in the two words, change and understanding! "
Li Nianfan was slightly taken aback. This guy was really suitable to be a philosopher. His brain circuit was definitely good at fooling people.
Looking around, Zhou Yunwu and the other two's eyes were full of shock.
Even Immortal Cultivators like Qin Manyun and Yao Mengji were stunned. They seemed to be deep in thought, as if they were deeply inspired.
However, Li Nianfan was only a mortal in the Immortal Cultivation World. Naturally, he wouldn't let go of this rare opportunity to show off.
After five years of systematic education, Li Nianfan was good at fooling people.
He said, "Then how much do you know about this world?"
Meng Junliang couldn't help but say proudly, "I've grasped most of the principles of this world."
Li Nianfan couldn't help but shake his head and hold back his laughter.
Most of the principles?
You're already amazing if you know even ten percent. The ignorant are fearless.
Zhou Yunwu spoke up for Meng Junliang, "Young Master Li, Junliang knows that he is wise, but he still lacks practical experience. Hence, he has taken on the role of my military advisor and is preparing to gain a deeper understanding of the way of the world."
"You know that you have to put it into practice. That's a good improvement."
Li Nianfan smiled faintly. "However, how can the principles of the world be so easily grasped?"
He stepped forward and picked up a yellowed leaf from the ground. He asked, "Do you know why I can tell the autumn from a single leaf?"
Meng Junliang answered without hesitation, "Because the leaves turn yellow and the fallen leaves return to their roots. That is how we know autumn."
Li Nianfan continued to ask, "Then do you know why the leaves turn yellow and why they turn green?"
Meng Junliang frowned slightly. "Because … autumn is here?"
He suddenly fell silent.
The leaves had turned yellow, so autumn had come. Autumn had come, so the leaves had turned yellow. Wasn't this nonsense?
Li Nianfan continued to ask, "Then do you know how to make the leaves turn green in autumn?"
Meng Junliang was speechless. This went against common sense.
Li Nianfan looked at Yao Mengji and asked, "Elder Yao, do you know?"
Yao Mengji pondered for a moment, then said, "If it's just an ordinary tree, you can use the Withered Tree Reviving Spring spell."
Li Nianfan smiled. "There's no need for the spell. As long as you understand the principles behind it, any ordinary person can do it."
After a pause, he suddenly felt a little emotional. He said, "As the saying goes, 'Dao follows nature.' Once you understand the principles behind it and apply them, ordinary people can also do many impossible things."
Dao follows nature, Dao follows nature … Wen Bi House
Not to mention Meng Junliang, even Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun were momentarily stunned. Their minds buzzed, as if they had been enlightened. It poured directly from the top of their heads, causing them to shiver.
They only felt that a kind of enlightenment was right in front of them. It was as if a huge principle of heaven and earth was right in front of them, but they just couldn't touch it.
Just these four words were worthy of the principle of heaven and earth!
It wasn't just ordinary people. If immortal cultivators could master these four words, then …
Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun looked at each other. Suddenly, they had goosebumps all over their bodies.
That was equivalent to mastering the principles. They could probably change the world with just a thought!
It was too scary. The realm of an expert was simply unimaginable.
"I've been narrow-minded." Meng Junliang let out a long breath and bowed deeply to Li Nianfan. "Junliang has benefited greatly from listening to Young Master Li's words. Although you didn't agree to accept me as your disciple, in my heart, you are my teacher. I've always considered myself as your errand boy. Young Master Li, please don't blame me."
"It's fine." Li Nianfan waved his hand. After acting cool for a while, he instantly felt relieved.
Qin Manyun and Yao Mengji were also full of admiration. "Young Master Li's words are really enlightening. Well said."
This is what they mean by convincing people with reason. However, the Dao I spoke of was very simple. To sum it up in one word — science.
I'm the first person in history to speak of science in the immortal cultivation world and make other immortal cultivators gasp in admiration.
"Teacher."
Zhou Yunwu walked over and respectfully addressed Li Nianfan as Teacher.
He bowed deeply but didn't get up. Instead, he maintained his bowing posture and said sincerely, "Mister, please save my Xia Country."
Li Nianfan hurriedly helped Zhou Yunwu up and said, "Young Master Zhou, please stand up. What happened?"
Zhou Yunwu hurriedly said, "Symptoms of the plague have appeared in my Xia. I'm here to invite Young Master Li to take a look."
"So fast?" Li Nianfan was slightly shocked. The last time he heard about the plague, it had actually spread here in just a few days.
"Young Master Zhou, don't worry. I've said before that I'll take care of this." Li Nianfan pondered for a moment and asked, "When did it start?"
"It was discovered yesterday morning." Zhou Yunwu's face was full of bitterness. He had already eliminated a bandit threat and was preparing to follow up with a victory. He didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Li Nianfan frowned and said, "Then we can't delay it."
The plague this time seemed to be very serious. Naturally, it was better to control it as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if there was a treatment method, it would be very troublesome.
He looked at Yao Mengji and said embarrassedly, "Elder Yao, Miss Man Yun, this …"
Since there was work here, he obviously couldn't eat pork anymore.
As an understanding person, Yao Mengji naturally understood Li Nianfan's intentions.
He hurriedly said, "Young Master Li, actually, we also want to take a look. The plague has already become too serious. Young Master Li, why don't you come with us? You can also rush to the Xia Dynasty as soon as possible."
Li Nianfan nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Very quickly, Li Nianfan froze the pork beside the fridge. Then, he pulled Daji along and asked Dahei to look after the house. Then, he hurriedly left with Yao Mengji and the rest.
With Yao Mengji leading the team, their speed was naturally much faster. In just two hours, a huge city appeared in front of them.
Actually, it could no longer be described as a city. From the layout, it was indeed considered a small country.
It was more than double the height of the Fallen Town's city walls. Moreover, it was thicker. On the city walls, there were watchtowers at intervals. There were also soldiers standing guard on them. A murderous aura filled the air. It was completely different from the Fallen Town's city walls.
