Chapter 358: Water and Fire for Hegemony
"The way of water is the best and softest..."
Su Lin, immersed in his insight, found that this concentration of spiritual fragrance was really a good thing. If he simply relied on his own to experience the thoughts and spirit of the Five Elements Water from Zou Yi's lecture words, he would probably only be able to experience more than 10%.
But now, the concentration of spiritual fragrance has embodied the thoughts of water in these five elements, and Su Lin felt that his thoughts were like a dam breaking a dam. Three ways of thinking were poured out, all of which were comprehensive the essence of water's thoughts.
"Oh my God! Look...what happened to that juren? Above his head, the concentration of spiritual fragrance formed a huge vortex, with waves like sea surging, and ice like mountains, and even more misty fog..."
"He is Su Lin! He just entered school today! He broke the mystery of poetry in the sacrificial hall. In the afternoon, he spent six credits to listen to Mr. Zou's lectures, and he was able to understand so deeply..."
"The concentration of the incense... The concentration of the incense in the classroom began to be consumed quickly, and Su Lin made a lot of money now. Usually, a plate of concentration of the incense can provide dozens of students with one class, but now he has consumed one-third of the incense in this quarter of an hour, which shows how much he has understood!"
"Yes! It's really enviable... I spent six credits to listen to the class, but I could only understand some simple truths of the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements, but Su Lin seemed to have appreciated the true meaning of water..."
...
Originally, other students were also concentrating on understanding the Yin and Yang and Five Elements Ways mentioned by Zou Yi, but they were frightened by the loud momentum that Su Lin made. They could no longer calm down and understand the principles of thought.
Just looking at the three-state strange phenomenon of water formed by the concentration of spiritual fragrance on Su Lin's head was enough to amazed these Jinshi, Juren and scholars.
"Via. Look quickly... Brother Su has realized something again! Genius is indeed a genius, not something we can compare with! Genius can gain different results wherever he goes. It is not because he is different from what we see and hear, but fundamentally, their thoughts are much deeper than us..."
Yang Weicheng is closest to Su Lin, so he can best understand the drastic changes in Su Lin's thoughts at this time. The water thought of the Five Elements Way completely emerged on him, and the momentum of Su Lin also began to change with the comprehension of the thoughts.
Sometimes it is as majestic as the sea, sometimes it is hard as an iceberg, sometimes it is dispersed as white fog.
The three different forms of water are actually the embodiment of the three ideas of water. Ordinary people understand the idea of water, only knowing the softness of water and knowing that water flows to the lower places, but they have never thought that water is not only water, but water can also become ice and turn into fog.
Why is this happening?
It is because water is the best at adjusting its own objects according to the outside world, from high to low. It is a change in the position of water based on the external situation. When the temperature in the outside world drops and the cold comes, water can protect itself very well. Turn itself into ice, hard and cold, and stand firm.
Similarly, water can turn into mist. It is scattered throughout the space, and it is everywhere. It is not completely it. It is so hazy and omnipresent. It allows you to feel its existence.
The spirit of water!
The three states of water!
It was so profound that Su Lin only understood the way of change at the beginning, and expressed it through the three states of water. He did not truly understand the specific thoughts and spirits in the three states. Therefore, although he was able to use the way of change, he could not penetrate the entire idea of water.
Now, the five elements of the senior Yin-Yang Master Hanlin Master Zou Yi, the senior Yin-Yang Master, talked about, with the help of concentrating on the spiritual fragrance, Su Lin suddenly became enlightened and began to absorb ideas about the way of water.
"Scary! Scary... so terrible! In this short time, I realized all the water thoughts I mentioned! And... it seems that he combined these and integrated some of his own understandings, and actually gave birth to some water thoughts that I didn't even know..."
Zou Yi had stopped giving lectures and stared at Su Lin at this moment. He couldn't help but sigh, "I'm afraid... Even my nephew Zou Zihang's understanding of Yin and Yang and Five Elements is not as powerful and thorough as he is, right?"
In another corner of the classroom, Zou Yi looked at his nephew, Zou Zihang, a Jinshi. Zou Zihang, who grew up in the Yin-Yang Semi-Saint Family, is 22 years old this year and has a Jinshi literary status. He majored in the idea of fire in the path of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. This time he came to listen to the lesson of his uncle Zou Yi, in order to further deepen the understanding of the idea of fire by concentrating on the effect of spiritual fragrance.
But now, Zou Yi found that his nephew Zou Zihang seemed to have not yet understood it, and Su Lin was almost exhausted of half of the concentration of spiritual fragrance. I have to admit that Su Lin's ability to comprehend is really a genius among geniuses.
"Fire! Hot...light..."
At this moment, the Jinshi Zou Zihang also shouted loudly, and a fire dragon suddenly emerged from his wisdom, rushing into the entire classroom with a thunderous thunder.
boom!
Fire!
Continuously gathered, the concentration of spiritual fragrance began to gather a huge volcano in the air. The hot magma kept gushing. Although it was an illusion, it made everyone present sweat and felt as if they were about to be melted by the heat of the volcano in the next moment.
"This is the thought of fire... I didn't expect that in addition to Su Lin, there is another person who can understand the thought of the Five Elements! It's so amazing... The consumption of the concentration of spiritual fragrance is faster..."
"It's Zou Zihang. He was originally a child of the Yin-Yang Half Saint Family and a nephew of Teacher Zou Yi. The thought he practiced since childhood was the thought of the fire among the five elements. Now, with the help of concentrating on the spirit fragrance, he can fully understand it. There is nothing to be surprised about. However, Su Lin, he is obviously a child of the Half Saint Family, how can he understand the Yin-Yang family so deeply... How strange is it!"
"What's so strange about this! Didn't you see it yesterday? Su Lin could even understand the idea of filial piety so deeply, and even wrote the "Fu of Filial Piety" of Zhenguo to replace the "Twenty-Four Filial Piety" that our Wu Kingdom has been worshipped for thousands of years!"
...
Originally, Su Lin, the only one in the classroom, deeply understood the spirit of the Five Elements, but now he has joined Zou Zihang. It became even more lively, especially in the mid-air of the classroom, completely different strange illusions appeared on both sides.
On the left is Su Lin's idea of water. The illusion shown is a turbulent sea. An iceberg floats on the sea, but the water vapor is vast in the air, making people look like a fog that is not light and real.
On the right side of the classroom is the idea of fire that Zou Zihang learned, which is completely a violent and hot volcano. The huge crater is full of red melting magma, making terrible sounds, as if it may erupt anytime and anywhere.
Sizzling...
The concentration incense began to burn violently in the corner of the classroom. Feeling Su Lin and Zou Zihang's thoughts, the concentration incense seemed to be excited, and the burning speed was obviously increased by more than ten times.
The change brought about is that the fragrance in the air of the classroom began to fluctuate and compete. The sea on the left and the flames on the right began to move closer to the middle, trying to conquer the other party's territory and absorb more concentration of fragrance.
"One water! One fire... Water and fire are going to compete for hegemony! It's so interesting. Unexpectedly, the five elements thoughts they comprehend would be mutually incompatible thoughts... Now the two of them just happened to be together again, and they must have a winner. I just don't know who can win?"
"I think it must be Zou Zihang. You should know that Zou Zihang began to practice the way of fire since he was a child, and it is said that he had several holy characters "fire". Although the word "fire" is not the only holy character, each fire also contains many of the true meanings and mysteries of fire. His understanding of fire must be deeper than Su Lin's understanding of water..."
"That's not necessarily. How did you know that Su Lin had never understood the mystery of water's thoughts before? And... Su Lin's water seems to be a little different. His water actually has three forms, which is really eye-opening! Before that, who could imagine that ice and fog could be dissolved in water like this? The three forms seem to be separate, but in fact they are all unified..."
When everyone saw the momentum above the classroom, they became nervous. The two people began to collide with each other, and they all excitedly stopped their understanding and wanted to watch a good show. The battle between water and fire was also an ideological showdown between Su Lin and Zou Zihang, two Confucian scholars who had never met.
"Water and fire, haha... I didn't expect that I would have such unexpected gains when I was teaching in the Imperial College today. This time, no matter who lost or who won, the understanding they both gained will be deeper. Water and fire are incompatible, but if there is more fire, it is enough to evaporate all the water... Zihang's nephew, whether you can make your volcano erupt and defeat Su Lin depends on your own..."
Although Zou Yi was the teacher this time, while he was teaching, he saw Su Lin and Zou Zihang's understanding, and naturally he also had a lot of inspiration. The yin and yang and five elements thoughts that were running in the sea of wisdom became more abundant, and it was obvious that he had gained a lot. (To be continued...)
