Enlightenment begins with the consecration of God

Chapter 210 Choosing a Path

There are abundant raw materials for papermaking, and all kinds of trees and straws are good materials for papermaking.The paper they produce may be different, but for writing, it should not be a big problem.

But for this first papermaking, Yang Tuo still decided to use South China Sea purple bamboo as raw material.Bamboo is a relatively good raw material for papermaking, and this purple bamboo is an acquired spiritual root.

Its material is extraordinary and full of aura. If it is used as a material to make paper, it must not be ordinary.

These papers are the best choice for writing books.

Yang Tuo took out a few purple bamboos from the storage bag, and was about to start the great cause of papermaking.

Generally speaking, papermaking is not too complicated, and can basically be divided into four steps.

Separation: Degumming the raw materials in lye by retting or steaming, and dispersing them into fibers;
Beating: cutting and pounding to cut the fiber, and make the fiber broom, and become pulp;
Paper making: the pulp is infiltrated with water to make a slurry, and then the pulp is scooped out with a paper scoop (bamboo mat), so that the pulp is interwoven into a thin sheet of wet paper on the scoop;

Drying: The wet paper is dried or air-dried, and it becomes paper when it is peeled off.

Of course, there are still some details, such as adding alum, adding glue, applying powder, sprinkling gold, dyeing and so on.

Yang Tuo is a man with magical powers, and many steps can actually be skipped.But papermaking is not just for your own use after all.

Ordinary people have to be able to complete it. Yang Tuo still plans to follow the four major steps, step by step.

It is actually not an easy job to crush the purple bamboo first.The aura of purple bamboo is contained within, and it is extremely hard.

It is not an easy matter to crush it.Yang Tuo had no choice but to chop it into pieces with the Heavenly Demon Transforming Blood Sword.

Then soak it in Sanguangshen water and steam it over real fire.The Blood Transforming Sword turned into a blood dragon and entered it to stir.

Finally, the pulp is fished out by magic method, and after smoothing, the water is removed.In the end, I got a lot of paper with snow-white surface and shimmering stars.

These papers are not ordinary at first glance, full of aura, shining with stars, if used as talisman paper, I am afraid it is also the top level.

In the future, the yellow paper of Maoshan will pale in comparison.Just looking at its raw materials, Maoshan is hard to match.

Now that the paper is ready, the choice of school is on the agenda.Yang Tuo was thinking while driving and walking.

Among the twelve great schools, Taoism need not be thought about. The school handed down by Laozi advocates that Taoism follows nature, self-transformation through inaction, and change in response to things.

It was passed down by Laozi, and Zhuangzi carried it forward.This Taoism must not be touched. If such a school is established, how will the sage deal with himself.

Moreover, this Taoist thought does not conform to Yang Tuo's "Tao".Yang Tuo's Tao is still full of contention, doing nothing with nature, probably on two levels.

Among the twelve schools of thought, Confucianism was one of the most influential.Its school advocates "ritual and music" and "benevolence and righteousness", advocates "loyalty and forgiveness" and "moderation", advocates "rule of virtue" and "government by benevolence", and attaches importance to ethical relations.

It is a school that is most favored by the king, and its influence is so great that it can be said that it has penetrated into the bones of the human race.

It is said that this is the best choice for Yang Tuo. As long as he chooses Confucianism, after thousands of years of development, it may be able to support his cultivation to the realm of the three holy emperors of the human race.

Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, is known as the most holy teacher, the teacher of all ages.It is not impossible to become a saint of humanity.

However, if you choose Confucianism, you may have no chance of being immortal.Confucianism emphasizes entering the world, while immortality emphasizes being out of the world.

Yang Tuo is not going to give up the way of immortality and switch to Confucianism.He still prefers the freedom of immortality, and Confucianism and Taoism are honed in the world of mortals, which is not what he yearns for.

If you don't choose Confucianism, among the twelve great schools, only Legalism can compare with it.

Legalists advocate "ruling the country by law" and replacing the rule of man with the rule of law.As a traveler of later generations, Yang Tuo is the most familiar with Fa.

He is the clearest about the potential of Legalists.Ordinarily, Yang Tuo should have chosen Legalism without hesitation, and Legalism did not have a founder.

After the development of the human race from generation to generation, Han Feizi finally became a master.Unlike Confucius of Confucianism, it is not known which mighty reincarnation.

Even with such good conditions, Yang Tuo still didn't make up his mind in the end, because the Legalism is most suitable for Shinto.

If he takes Legalism as his foundation, he may end up giving up the immortal way, and take Emperor Ziwei as his foundation to practice the divine way.

It may not be a problem to choose to enter the Hunyuan like this, but if you want to prove the Tao and become a saint, it is still a little short.

With the cooperation of Emperor Ziwei and the Legalists, it may be possible to cultivate such great supernatural powers as saying the constitution of heaven in your mouth and following the law with your words.

Yang Tuo was still a little hesitant, and he took the Fa family as an alternative.If there is no better choice, Legalism is his last choice.

Even if you step into the divine way because of this, it doesn't matter, everything is for proving the way.At that time, he and Haotian God are probably the biggest opponents.

The two will definitely fight to the death for the sake of the way.If it wasn't true that he had no choice, Yang Tuo would not be willing to take this step.

He is also not sure that he can defeat Haotian God, complete the Shinto, and walk out of a way to reach the sky.

The next thing he considered was the peasant family, who advocated persuading them to cultivate mulberry trees so that they could have enough food and clothing.The spread of the farm family will definitely make the human race prosperous.

After all, people regard food as their heaven, and eating is the most important thing in the world.Food and clothing are the most basic human needs.

In addition, he is the author of "Nongshu", so it can be said that everything for the establishment of this school has already been prepared.

Yang Tuo took out the "Agricultural Book" to read, and now the Agricultural Book is no longer what it used to be.After his continuous dissemination, today's agricultural book is already a meritorious treasure.

There is no problem at all with the luck used to suppress the farmers.Moreover, the way of solar terms mastered by Yang Tuo is also closely related to the peasant family.

From a normal point of view, this peasant family is more suitable for Yang Tuo than the Legalist family.However, in Yang Tuo's view, the development potential of the peasant family is not as good as that of the Legalist family.

The peasant family is great at supporting a Daluo Jinxian, but the Legalist family can support a Hunyuan Loose Immortal, or a Hunyuan True Immortal.

Because the farm family is limited to the human race, but the legal school can be used for Shinto.There are many races in the heavens and all races that don't need to eat at all.

They can survive by eating the wind and drinking the dew, and absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.For example, the Celestials and Asuras, they can absorb the aura of heaven and earth since they were born.

There are also many races in the water who cannot practice farming at all.There are also races in rocks, Gobi, volcanoes, elemental spirits and other races that don't need this way!
The peasant family has some innate shortcomings, not to mention using it to prove the Tao and become a saint, it is impossible to even think about it.It is thanks to the human race as the protagonist of heaven and earth that he can achieve the Da Luo Jinxian with this.

For a weaker race, even Daluo Jinxian would not be able to support it.

In the end, there are Mohists, Yin-Yang Schools, Military Schools, and Medical Schools, all of which are good schools. As for famous schools, miscellaneous schools, novelists, and strategists, they were all abandoned by Yang Tuo.
