Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 316 A World of Heaven and Earth

Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask curiously, "Can the City God of Mi summon two Sima Shen?"

Mi Gu smiled and said, "Those two are the ancestors of our royal family. They might show up for the sake of my youth."

Lu Zheng thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "I'm sorry to bother Mi Cheng Huang. I'm just a little curious, not really eager to meet them. When I have the ability in the future, I'll go by myself."

"Really……"

Mi Gu felt a little regretful after hearing this. He still wanted to introduce Lu Zheng to those two people, hoping that those two people could persuade Lu Zheng to join the State of Chu.

However, he felt that Lu Zheng was quite confident. He actually thought that he had achieved success in his cultivation and could meet the two great gods based on his own abilities.

Not everyone is qualified to meet those two great gods, even if he is just a subordinate god.

Since Lu Zheng had this idea, Mi Gu no longer insisted, thinking that Lu Zheng just didn't want to owe him a favor.

Not long after, Lu Zheng and his party returned to Mi Mansion.

Lu Zhengyi had just been struck by lightning and needed to rest, so he took Qingwan back to the guest room to rest.

Mi Gu didn't want to force the two to stay with him. After receiving the blessing of heaven and earth, he really needed to practice in seclusion to consolidate his own cultivation.

However, when he heard Lu Zheng describe the blessing of heaven and earth as being struck by thunder, he couldn't help but laugh.

I wonder how many people want to be struck by such thunder.

Mi Gu was sitting in the living room drinking tea. He called over a subordinate and asked, "Hasn't anyone found out who's secretly plotting against Lu Zheng?"

Upon hearing this, the subordinate replied: "There are no clues at the moment."

Mi Gu frowned and said unhappily, "He has ulterior motives. He's really a shameful rat. He doesn't even show his tail..."

It’s not that he protects Lu Zheng so much, but as the City God of Yongzhou, he is closest to Anguo. If anything happens to Lu Zheng, he will definitely be in trouble.

He was sure that the other party was definitely not a high-ranking official of the Chu State, otherwise he could have talked to him directly about these things in person without being so secretive.

Mi Gu blinked and pondered, "Could it be that some of the An people are jealous of him and want to kill him?"

Upon hearing this, the subordinate said, "It's possible."

Now everyone who knows Lu Zheng also knows that Lu Zheng has offended many people.

An Guo didn't know how many families hated Lu Zheng to the core.

"Interesting..." Mi Gu couldn't help but laugh. "When someone is so outstanding and so brilliant, it's inevitable that others will envy them! I think those people deserve it. If there wasn't Lu Zheng, there would be a Li Zheng or a Zhang Zheng... to take care of them."

"Do we need to continue investigating?" asked the subordinate.

Mi Gu said calmly, "Just keep watching and make sure Lu Zheng doesn't get into trouble here... If he dies here after receiving the Holy Gift, it would be embarrassing for me and would be against me!"

After all, Lu Zheng is an outsider, and Mi Gu can't protect him too much.

Keeping Lu Zhengzheng as a guest in the house was also based on his own interests.

……

"That lightning just now didn't kill us, it's amazing!"

When she returned to the room, Qing Wan looked incredulous.

Thinking back to when she was enveloped by thunder, Qing Wan was shocked and excited, and said, "I don't seem to be hurt at all!"

Lu Zheng smiled and asked, "Don't you feel that you have become stronger?"

Qing Wan said, "It seems there has been a slight change."

Qingwan spread out her little hands, and a very pure aura emerged from her hands, which was righteousness.

"Not bad." Lu Zheng couldn't help but say, "That's a lot of progress!"

Qing Wan shook her head and said, "It's just a little bit. Compared to you, you have so much more righteousness!"

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "That's not the right comparison. Other demons, ghosts, or even gods might not be able to cultivate righteousness. You're much, much stronger than them!"

Qing Wan blinked and couldn't help saying, "It seems so!"

Thinking that she had surpassed many beings, she couldn't help but feel proud and grinned.

Lu Zheng pondered, "Now that you have cultivated righteousness, it will be much easier for you to cultivate peas suitable for medicinal use in the future."

"Yeah!" Qing Wan nodded heavily.

Lu Zheng brought Qing Wan to the Wen Palace space.

When they entered the space, Lu Zheng and the others found that this place had undergone great changes.

The strange phenomenon of heaven and earth that was originally in the Haoran Zhengqi Hall suddenly appeared. The sun, moon and stars hung high in the sky, and mountains and rivers surrounded them. The entire space was expanded a lot.

Even the entire Haoran Zhengqi Hall has become much larger, and the vegetation inside and outside the residential courtyard is thriving.

Qing Wan looked up at the changes around her, her eyes widening in surprise as she asked, "Was it struck by lightning?"

"It should be..." Lu Zheng said.

He also didn't expect that the purple lightning would create a new world.

Lu Zheng stroked his chin, his eyes sparkling as he said, "I'm afraid the palaces of some great scholars aren't as luxurious as this place, right?"

Now his Wen Palace space has completely turned into a world of its own, with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and plants.

It can be said to be a small world, much more advanced than any paradise.

The sun, moon, and stars in the sky alone are not visions that anyone can conjure up.

Moreover, the visions that Lu Zheng had were not illusions, but gradually became real.

The benefits obtained this time were obviously beyond Lu Zheng's expectations.

Entering the main hall, the aura of righteousness remained. Several cultural relics and new books stood suspended in the air. Each item held extraordinary power, each placed in its own place, constantly nourished by the aura of righteousness.

"This is?"

Lu Zheng noticed two more books, and quickly waved to take a look. He found that they were the enlightenment reading material and medical book he wrote.

Now these two books are physical books condensed with pure and righteous energy.

Lu Zheng could feel that there was a special power in the two books.

"Is this a true original copy, the kind of book or cultural artifact that can be a family heirloom?" Lu Zheng muttered to himself.

Confucian and Taoist scholars wrote books and their handwritten classics could be used as literary tools and passed down as objects of inheritance.

When Lu Zheng was writing these two books, he didn't care too much about it. He just thought of them as two ordinary works and didn't expect them to be condensed into literary works.

As a result, a bolt of lightning came down and helped him to forge a literary instrument with his righteous spirit.

Lu Zheng's thought flashed through his mind, and the "Hundred Character Classic" in his hand opened automatically.

After a quick glance, Lu Zheng's eyes fixed on the word "wind".

But as soon as the word appeared, it suddenly shone with light, and a strong wind suddenly blew up, causing the robe to flutter.

"Each word contains a different power, and it replenishes itself after use. It seems that I have mastered the ability to call the wind and rain..."

Lu Zheng observed the changes in the book and determined its purpose.

As for the medical book, its effect is to treat the diseases in the book directly using the power contained in the book.

When he encounters ordinary patients in the future, Lu Zheng can save a lot of time and energy.

Qing Wan, who was standing next to him, was amazed. "That's amazing! When I have the ability in the future, I will also write a few books!"

Lu Zheng smiled when he heard this. These two books did have some use, but they only played a supporting role.

They are just two books handed down from generation to generation, but they cannot be considered classics that will be passed down through the ages.

If it is the original classics like the Four Books and Five Classics, the power it contains is unimaginable. I am afraid that even a great scholar like him would not be able to fully control it, right?

Lu Zheng couldn't help but feel a little curious.

Lu Zheng gave the book to Qing Wan to experiment with, and found that Qing Wan could also use his book, but the effect was much weakened.

Moreover, he can use his power to prevent Qing Wan from using the books and take the books back at will.

Just like those cultural relics, this one is exclusive to Lu Zheng, and no one else can use it to their full potential.

After playing with the two books for a while, Lu Zheng put them back into the hall.

He could feel that as he became stronger, the power of these two books would also increase.

The two walked to the yard and found that the various plants in the vegetable garden had also changed.

Qing Wan walked over and saw that the bean sprouts she had planted had changed a lot, almost becoming small trees, and contained more positive energy.

The two observed for a while, collected some beans, and then ran outside to sow them.

When Qingwan gave birth to new bean sprouts, she discovered that there was indeed a trace of righteousness in these sprouts.

"We succeeded?" Qing Wan couldn't help but said excitedly.

Lu Zheng carefully explored it and said, "Take some more seeds and plant them."

"oh oh……"

Qing Wan took a small notebook to make records first, and then ripened the beans and sowed them. She found that the genetics of the next generation of beans were still not stable, and the positive energy could not last long.

Qingwan couldn't help but frown.

Lu Zhengdao said, "Everything is difficult, so take your time. We still need to work hard on our cultivation."

"Yeah!" Qing Wan is not someone who will admit defeat.

She turned to look at Lu Zheng, "If we get struck by lightning a few more times, will it work?"

"Well, I'll try my best." Lu Zheng smiled.

Lu Zheng was not sure about this, but things like the blessings of heaven and earth, more of them would naturally be good.

After observing the Double Ninth Festival sacrifice before, Lu Zheng had already vaguely grasped some of the rules.

If you want to attract the power of heaven and earth, you have to use some special force to pull it.

Of course, Lu Zheng couldn't be completely sure that the thunder just now really came from heaven and earth, and he couldn't rule out the possibility that it was the work of the divine will between heaven and earth.

Because it was after that thunder that his literary aura increased.

The ancient sages created Confucianism, which allowed Confucian scholars to increase their literary talent through reading and practice.

Literary spirit originates from oneself, but tracing back to its source, it comes from the Confucian and Taoist power that exists between heaven and earth.

The medical book he had just offered was recognized by heaven and earth. On the other hand, it could also be said to be recognized by the power of Confucianism and Taoism.

Lu Zheng rubbed his cheeks, feeling that this world was even more mysterious than he had imagined. He needed to figure out the rules and explore it slowly.

Qing Wan squatted in a corner to observe the growth of beans, and then asked in a low voice: "Lu Zheng, can I also plant some beans on those hills? The vegetable patch in the yard is not big enough."

The mountains Qing Wan mentioned were the mountains that appeared in the Wen Palace space.

Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, you can plant whatever you want, just don't plant it on that strange mountain, you can't plant it there."

The newly emerged mountains and rivers are all ordinary mountains and rivers, but there are strange mountains and rivers among them. In comparison, the difference can be distinguished at a glance.

"I understand." Qing Wan nodded in response.
