Chapter 517 Transition Chapter (Happy New Year to Everyone!)
In the following time, Zheng Shu once again entered a regular life.
The recasting work of the Arms of God is getting better, but Zheng Shu has slowed down the pace of recasting it again. The reason is that Zheng Shu now not only analyzes the thinking material conversion technology, but also analyzes the operating principles of the Arms of God. .
Up to now, although a lot of knowledge has been analyzed, Zheng Shu's fighting method has basically been established. Among them, the ability of God's Arms is an indispensable part of Zheng Shu's fighting system.
After all, Zheng Shu's combat system determines that what he is best at is frontal combat. When faced with some strange abilities, he is still somewhat powerless.
The weapons of God created by Hephaestus for Zheng Shu perfectly made up for the flaws in his combat system.
If the effect of the God's Arms in converting all fancy attacks into pure physical and magical impacts can be analyzed, then even if Zheng Shu goes to the new world, he can still maintain his prosperity without recasting the God's Arms. posture.
This is of great significance to Zheng Shu, so even if he wants to slow down the recasting process of God's Arms, he must analyze the principles of God's Arms ability as much as possible.
After all, in the current world of one person, Zheng Shu basically does not have to worry about his own life safety.
Although there are some possible hidden forces that make Zheng Shu wary, at least at this stage, he has a lot of time to conduct research with peace of mind.
A few more years passed like this, Zheng Shu ignored the ups and downs of the outside world and stayed peacefully in Baiyun Temple.
A lot of things have happened in these years. The older generation in Baiyun Temple began to reach the end of their lifespan and passed away one after another. Even Abbot Xie Xin became an immortal a few months ago.
Although Zheng Shu was a little sad about such a thing, he followed their wishes and did not help them extend their lives. Instead, he followed the principles of natural cycles and silently experienced life, old age, illness and death in the world.
After traveling through three worlds, Abbot Xie Xin's death still gave him an unprecedented experience.
After digesting this indescribable emotion, Zheng Shu's meditation practice also improved significantly.
"The cultivation method has become quite perfect, and there is nothing that can be changed for the time being. With my current level of cultivation, if it were the previous cultivation method, I should have reached the level where I can become an immortal."
After finishing today's practice, Zheng Shu opened his eyes, the look in his eyes was gentle and calm.
A long time ago, Zheng Shu had given up the practice of inner alchemy.
In other words, based on his own situation, he integrated the cultivation methods of other sects and gathered the strengths of hundreds of schools to create his own unique cultivation method.
The most important thing is that this practice also drew on the "spiritual" practices of Liu Kunsheng and Li Longwang during the creation process, so in theory this practice has no end.
As long as Zheng Shu is willing, he can continue practicing forever.
Of course, the shortcoming is also obvious, that is, it is impossible to become an immortal.
"But to me, it doesn't matter whether I become an immortal or not. The 'adaptability' of the cultivation method is the most important requirement."
Zheng Shu's situation is quite special. He doesn't just have to live in one world, so the cultivation method he designed for himself must be as adaptable as possible.
The advantage of a method that can lead to immortality is that at the moment of becoming an immortal, one can greatly enhance their strength, and it is even theoretically possible to master some of the laws of this world.
But the disadvantage is that it is completely useless once you leave this world.
Although the "innate Qi" in the world under one person is another way of saying vitality, there is still a slight difference between the two in some cases.
It's just that in the world under one person, there is no difference between vitality and innate Qi, so they can be interchanged. However, in other worlds, there is no such thing as "Qi" in many worlds.
In the world under one person, "innate Qi" can be cultivated into "Qi", but in other worlds, the "vital force" may not be able to cultivate such a thing as "Qi".
Zheng Shu's current self-created cultivation method has completely given up on the cultivation of Qi, and has turned to polishing the pure "innate Qi".
This cultivation method is actually very similar to the cultivation method of those spirits who suddenly gain wisdom and can master their own innate energy.
Even with Zheng Shu's adjustment, from the perspective of the development level of the cultivation method, this cultivation method is naturally more "backward" and "primitive".
Whether it is the speed of cultivation, the level of blessing of one's own strength, or other aspects, it is far weaker than other orthodox cultivation methods in the world under one person.
But the advantage of "original" is that it has a higher fault tolerance rate and can adapt to more different situations. It is indeed more "suitable" for Zheng Shu.
Not long after Zheng Shu opened his eyes, there was a knock on his door.
"Uncle Junior, it's almost time."
"it is good."
Zheng Shu responded, got off the bed and opened the door.
Outside the door is a young Taoist priest who looks to be twelve or thirteen years old. He is a newcomer recruited by Baiyun Temple in recent years.
After seeing Zheng Shu's appearance, even though he had seen it many times, the little Taoist priest couldn't help but show a look of surprise. Fortunately, he quickly calmed down and saluted Zheng Shu with his eyes closed.
"Little uncle, it's almost the auspicious time. Master and uncle, they are all waiting."
"Well, please, I'll be there right away."
Zheng Shu nodded gently toward the little Taoist priest, stepped out, and disappeared at the door.
When the little Taoist priest raised his head, Zheng Shu could no longer be seen. He sighed in his heart, and the little Taoist priest also turned around and hurried towards the main hall.
As Zheng Shu used "Shrink the Ground to an Inch 3.5.1 Version", he himself crossed more than half of the distance of Baiyun Temple in one step and came outside the main hall.
At this time, many people had gathered outside the main hall. When they saw Zheng Shu again, most of them saluted him respectfully.
It has entered the midsummer season, and the Hungry Ghost Festival is approaching on July 15th.
After placing the newly-emerged Abbot Xie Xin in place, Baiyunguan has also prepared various ceremonial rituals and is about to usher in the enthronement ceremony of the new abbot.
The new abbot of Baiyunguan is naturally the apprentice of the previous abbot Xie Xin and the master of Zheng Shu: Xu Zhengning.
Therefore, Zheng Shu's status has also increased. However, before that, Zheng Shu was a transcendent existence in Baiyun Temple, so everyone's attitude towards him did not change much.
A few weeks ago, Baiyun Temple had focused all its efforts on the enthronement ceremony.
Compared with the regular enshrinement ceremony, the abbot's enthronement ceremony is naturally more grand and takes longer. Although the official date of the ceremony has been set, the corresponding prelude has begun a few days ago.
According to the schedule, rituals such as opening the altar, asking for water, and offering sacrifices to the kitchen god should be held before the official date of the ceremony.
After everyone arrived, the Taoists lined up in order according to the level of their ordination, holding various ritual items in their hands, and entered the hall in order.
Afterwards, they presented their confession and chanted mantras. Then Xu Zhengning, wearing a purple robe, came on stage and led everyone to continue to the next step of the ritual.
Because it was his own master's enthronement ceremony, Zheng Shu did it very methodically and seriously.
The rituals in the main hall last for a whole day, and the rituals on the next two days can also be described as cumbersome.
Fortunately, the Taoist priests in charge of Baiyun Temple did not dare to let Zheng Shu really do these tedious tasks all the time, so they arranged an easy job for him.
During the ceremony, nine Taoist banners were erected inside Baiyun Temple and thirty-six bright lamps were lit.
What Zheng Shu had to do in the next two days was to take good care of these objects and continue to offer incense oil to keep the lamps burning.
On the last day, the enthronement ceremony of the abbot of Baiyun Temple reached its climax, and many guests were invited to attend the grand ceremony.
There is a very important reason here, which is that many people want to take this opportunity to come to Baiyun Temple and meet Zheng Shu, a legendary figure who is hard to find.
Therefore, the scale of this ceremony was exceptionally grand, and the number of guests invited far exceeded everyone's imagination. Even many foreigners took the opportunity to come and participate.
"Old Zheng, here I come!"
Zhang Chulan greeted Zheng Shu cheerfully, and behind him, as always, were Feng Baobao and the Xu brothers.
However, after working for so many years, although Xu Si is still the head of the company in the North China region, Xu San has been promoted and transferred. This time he took this opportunity to meet his brother after a long time.
"Long time no see. You haven't been here for half a year. I thought you died outside." Zheng Shu nodded gently.
"Uh... don't say that. It's not my fault. You have to blame Xu Si. This guy has assigned me too much work. I have been so busy in recent times." Zhang Chulan began to complain immediately.
"You little brat! Do you think I don't want the area I'm responsible for to be more stable?!" Xu Si was immediately displeased by Zhang Chulan's "false accusation".
After they laughed and joked for a while, Zhang Chulan quietly moved closer to Zheng Shu.
"Old Zheng, it feels like a lot of people are watching you."
"Well, that's normal. It was expected. Nothing serious will happen anyway, so there's no need to worry about them." Zheng Shu was very calm about this.
"Then let's go over there first. Director Zhao is still waiting for us over there." Xu Si touched his body as if he was looking for a cigarette, but when he thought of the current situation, he regretfully gave up the idea.
"Okay, let's talk later." Zheng Shu waved goodbye.
"Zheng Shu, we are here!"
At this time, a voice came from the crowd. Many people looked at the source of the voice in surprise, but only a very few people changed their faces, lowered their heads deeply, and pretended that they did not hear it.
"Wenshan, Ersha, you guys are here too?"
Zheng Shu turned to look at the person who made the sound, and a rare look of surprise appeared on his face.
The people who came were Wenshan and Ersha from the third type of contact department, and next to them was a little kid who looked only four or five years old and looked extremely cute.
"Anyway, it's been pretty quiet there lately and there's nothing to do, so I brought the kids over here to play and just treat it as a trip." Wenshan is still as lively as ever, and has not become the slightest bit more steady even after becoming a mother.
On the contrary, the expression of Ersha next to her became much gentler. Although he was very gentle in his heart before, his appearance always made people feel a little cold.
"Is it really okay for the two of you to neglect your duties so blatantly?"
Although Zheng Shu said this, he had already squatted in front of the child and happily stretched out his hand.
"Come, give uncle a hug."
"big sister……"
Hearing the baby voice of the little guy, Zheng Shu's face darkened and he silently withdrew his hands that wanted to hug him.
Wen Shan, who was standing next to him, saw this scene and laughed at Zheng Shu without any hesitation: "Hahaha! You have come to this day too!"
"Tsk! I've decided. From now on, I will work hard to train and grow as much muscle as possible."
After all, the energy in this world is too scarce, and Zheng Shu's body has always been in a state of malnutrition, so his body shape is not too exaggerated, and his appearance has naturally become somewhat neutral.
"By the way, it's a good thing you're here. I have something I want to ask you after the ceremony is over."
"Okay, no problem! Ah, it looks like the ceremony is about to start, so I'll just slip away now. Come back to us after you finish the ceremony."
Wenshan took a look at the situation in front of her, and immediately and decisively said goodbye to Zheng Shu, and took her husband and children away from Baiyun Temple.
Returning to the queue, Xu Zhengning, who was at the front, had already started his speech, surrounded by a group of pot-bellied leaders.
"...In the future, on the path of cultivating the truth and spreading the Dharma, we must resolutely love our country and religion, be firm in our faith, have correct beliefs and conduct, strictly observe the Daoist discipline, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, continuously strengthen the management and construction of the Taoist temples, do our best to cultivate talents, practice the Dao and establish virtues, promote the Dao, pass on the Daoist lineage, serve the society, glorify the Daoist sect, and work together with the Taoist community to forge ahead in realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation..."
After a series of long and tedious speeches, the new abbot Xu Zhengning made a confession and informed his ancestors, and the enthronement ceremony came to an end.
Standing behind him at this time were all the Taoists of Baiyun Temple. They followed Xu Zhengning in presenting the petition and reciting the magnificent text.
Only after all the steps are completed can the ceremony of enthroning the abbot of Baiyun Temple be considered a complete success.
After the ceremony, Zheng Shu, Zhao Fangxu and several other familiar temporary workers in the company talked to each other for a while, then left Baiyun Temple amid the regretful gazes of others and found Wenshan's family who were still touring BJ.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
In a coffee shop, Wenshan took a sip of her drink and leaned back on the sofa.
"I may have to go out in the next few years. Do you have an interstellar map?" Zheng Shu stated his needs without any hesitation.
(I will take a day off tomorrow to celebrate the New Year.)
