Chapter six hundred and eighty first consideration(1/2)

The northern suburbs of Tancheng City.

Thackeray has gotten rid of the shackles of the wheelchair and can walk with a cane with the support of his assistant.

His skin also gradually turned from pale and dry to rosy.

His health recovered faster than several other old friends who were recuperating here.

This is because of money making ability!

It's also because of the halo surrounding Thackeray's head!

An old friend of the Central Plains people, a disseminator of Central Plains art and culture, and an international friend...

It was also because Thackeray returned all the cultural relics from the Central Plains in his collections to the Central Plains for free.

Therefore, old Thackeray received preferential treatment as a state guest.

He can send people up to the 'fairy mountain' three times a day, collect the precious fairy energy brought down from the top of the mountain through air tanks, and then nourish his body through a ventilator.

This makes him in far better shape than other old guys.

but……

This is not enough!

far from enough!

Especially after seeing the living example of Lee Hyo Fong.

Thackeray vowed that no matter what the cost, he would get a chance for treatment.

And now Thackeray looked at the document in his hand, and his already weakened heart began to beat again.

That's the feeling of heart palpitations.

Thackeray took a deep breath to calm his heart down.

"Beyond the Three Realms and not within the Five Elements!" He chewed this sentence back and forth, and he chewed it in standard Chinese Mandarin.

He is the top researcher of Central Plains culture in the flag country.

There used to be more than a dozen top-notch national treasures from the Central Plains in his collection!

Among them are treasures such as "Chu Silk Book".

Therefore, Thackeray can be regarded as the most knowledgeable person on the Central Plains culture among the senior officials of the flag state.

When he was young, he even joked: "If I were born in the Tang Dynasty, I would never be able to get a Jinshi!"

Naturally, he knew and understood that what the immortal described was the image of the immortal in the myths and legends of the Central Plains!

Free, carefree, happy!

Unfettered and carefree!

Jumping out of the Three Realms is not in the Five Elements!

Even the rules of heaven and earth cannot restrain the immortals!

Therefore, the immortals in the Central Plains are all bohemian and free-spirited people in mythology.

"Sending mayflies to the heaven and earth, a drop in the vast ocean, mourning for the brief moment of my life, envying the infinity of the Yangtze River, carrying flying immortals to travel, holding the bright moon in my arms for the rest of my life!"

"I don't know how unexpected it is, but I left it in the sad wind!"

Thackeray couldn't help but mutter to himself this ancient poem.

Works by great poets from the Song Dynasty.

"I didn't know it was unexpected, but I left it in the sad wind..."

"This is the immortal!"

"In the ancient Central Plains, it seems that there were indeed people who traveled with the immortals, but unfortunately they were not able to receive the immortal's gift and achieve enlightenment!"

Thomas, who was next to Thackeray, was confused. Although he knew some Chinese language, he was really lacking in culture!

Especially ancient culture!

I can really recognize the words, but I don’t understand the content at all.

Because in ancient times, the Central Plains loved to use allusions and references.

People who are not familiar with it cannot understand its meaning even if they know the words.

Therefore, Thomas did not understand at all what Thackeray was lamenting?

But he still heard something.

So, I couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Thackeray, what do you know?"

Thackeray glanced back at the elder he had supported.

He smiled and said, "Thomas, you must have read a lot of works about this country these days, right?"

"You should also employ many Chinese people among your consultants, right?"

Thomas nodded

.

In order to learn as much as possible about the ancient legends and myths of this country.

Almost all the elders of the Senate employ a group of people from the Central Plains flag country.

It's not that they don't want to hire those Central Plains natives.

They are really worried.

If there is someone similar to the Cambridge Five around me, once he is found out, he will extirpate himself from the flag country.

After all, it now seems that the flag country is getting closer to the Central Plains because of the immortals.

But what about the future?

If the two countries are at odds again in the future, let alone a figure like the Cambridge Five next to the senator.

Just the fact that there were people from the Central Plains in the team was enough to make an elder or even a faction step down!

Now, hiring a few Chinese people is actually risky.

If it is not necessary, the elders will generally try their best to choose those who are third or fourth generation descendants of the Central Plains of the flag country.

This is for safety!

"Ha!" Thackeray laughed and said, "Thomas, let me advise you. If you want to understand the culture of this ancient country, you can't rely on Central Plains people, because they, like you, have a deep understanding of this country.

No idea!"

"Immigrants after the second generation basically have only a superficial understanding of the civilization of their home country!"

"Even if you don't want to hire people with Chinese nationality, it's better to hire a first-generation immigrant!"

"Otherwise, you will suffer a loss!"

"Just like now, you have no idea what kind of existence we are facing!"

Thomas listened and took a breath: "What do you mean..."

Thackeray nodded: "Yes!"

"If it is really the perfect immortal in Central Plains mythology!"

"The words of an immortal who has "jumped out of the Three Realms and is not among the Five Elements..."

"Then, his power is no longer as simple as what he introduced!"

"Because..." Thackeray took a deep breath, his eyes filled with confusion: "There is an allusion in the myth of the Central Plains..."

"When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!"

"The meaning is that as long as one person becomes an "immortal", then this person can take his entire family, servants, and even the chickens, ducks, pigs, and dogs raised at home to ascend together, obtain eternal life, and enjoy the same things as an immortal.

treatment!"

"so……"

"Actually, there is still a way... there is still a way..."

"Become his chicken or dog, and on the day when Xiu ascends to enlightenment, you will also have the opportunity to live forever, or even be rejuvenated!"

Having said this, Thackeray's face turned rosy with excitement.

This is his last chance.

He is too old.

Even if an "immortal" is willing to teach any immortal method, he will definitely not be able to practice it.

Moreover, the immortals in the Central Plains have strict requirements for imparting "immortal magic", which is almost as strict as a mysophobia.

It’s both about chance and luck, and you have to go through countless hardships and endure countless tests.

For ordinary people, it is too difficult!
