Chapter 1299: An Unexpected Surprise

Escape from death is a different kind of excitement.

Jiang Hao calmed down slightly. In this "Iron-Blooded Journey", he finally got his revenge, fulfilled his wish to fight against the Iron-Blooded, and finally forcibly accepted the Iron-Blooded Queen. He suddenly felt that his thoughts were clear.

It's just a pity that I couldn't say goodbye to Alice before leaving.

And in this world, he can't go back at will. If he doesn't have enough strength, he will definitely be cut into pieces of meat or even ground into powder.

He captured the Iron-Blooded Queen and offended the Iron-blooded Stars. Those guys might really take it out on the earth and bring about a nuclear leveling of the earth.

Don't think about this, let's see what system rewards can be given this time.

Lottery draws are always exciting times.

"Open the system panel."

Brush~

A blue light curtain appeared in front of me.

The taskbar displays:

"Congratulations to the collector for completing the task of 'Capturing 10 Predators' in the world of 'Predator' and exceeding the target. The customer is very satisfied with this task, please claim the reward."

After bowing to the surroundings, Jiang Hao clicked the button to receive the reward.

"Ding~ Congratulations to the collector, you have received the "Iron Blood Star Map" reward."

"Iron Blood Star Map"! What the hell?

Before Jiang Hao could finish his doubts, a huge amount of information rushed into Jiang Hao's mind. Jiang Hao closed his eyes to accept it, and then checked the information. Only after checking it did he understand what the "Iron Blood Star Map" was.

Jiang Hao first had an idea in his mind, what an awesome reward, and then a second thought, what a useless reward.

To put it simply, the "Iron Star Map" is an interstellar coordinate map used by Iron-blooded people to explore the universe and navigate in the universe. The interstellar coordinate map often uses a certain star as the origin of the coordinates to create a four-dimensional coordinate, and then uses the pulsar as a reference object. position.

What makes Jiang Hao feel amazing is that the aerospace technology of Iron Blood Star is very advanced. People on earth have not left the solar system yet. They have explored multiple galaxies and countless constellations in the galaxy.

The most amazing thing is that this interstellar map also marks many living planets, mineral planets, coordinate planets, as well as wormhole cracks, cosmic storm zones, black holes and white holes that may be encountered during navigation.

It also includes analysis of some planets along the way,

Such as mineral content, gravity, air, rays, biological conditions, etc.

Just like ancient navigation charts, it records the scenery, resources and prey along the way.

to be honest,

This reward is very high. This knowledge can be said to be the crystallization of thousands of years of cosmic exploration by the Iron-Blooded Stars. The earth spends countless dollars every year to explore the mysteries of the universe, and only gets one trillionth of this knowledge. If you want to I don’t know how many years it will take to reach the level of cosmic knowledge of the Iron-Blooded Stars.

If cosmologists get this interstellar map, they will definitely be ecstatic, and it would be normal for them to have a heart attack.

But against Jiang Hao, it's really useless.

In the real world, the earth's satellite rocket technology has only touched the moon. It is difficult to land on the nearest planet Mars, and flying out of the solar system is even more of a luxury.

Voyager 1, the fastest human aircraft, has a flight speed of 17km/s. It has been flying for 42 years and has still not left the solar system. It takes about 40,000 years to fly from the solar system to the nearest star system, Proxima Centauri. about.

Unless one possesses the spacecraft technology of the Iron-Blooded Stars, the star map is just a decoration. Even if it is handed over to Earth scientists, it will only be regarded as fantasy and random imagination.

But in any case, these star field maps also opened up Jiang Hao's horizons and solved some doubts. The universe is huge, vast, and mysterious. The human world is just an extremely small existence. Before, people always thought that human beings were the universe. The protagonist, in fact, this is just human fantasy and desire.

besides,

Jiang Hao felt that he had a deeper understanding of some of the sayings in Taoist classics.

"Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao." What is Tao? Some say it is chaos, some say it is the universe. No one can really explain it, because as soon as he explains it, he will be imprisoned by his ideological vision.

"The great road is invisible, giving birth to the heaven and the earth; the great road is ruthless, moving the sun and the moon; the great road is nameless, nourishing all things." This may be the most concise summary of the Taoist theory of cosmogenesis.

Lao Tzu said in the "Tao Te Ching": "There are things mixed together, born in advance of heaven and earth. So lonely! Independent and unchanging, Zhou Xing is not in danger, and can be the mother of the world. I don't know whose son is the first of Xiang Emperor; I don't know his name. The word is "Tao".

Jiang Hao understood this sentence more deeply.

He also recalled the record in the "Five Movements" in the "Huangdi Neijing":

The emperor said: Is the earth inferior?

Qi Bo said: The earth is under human beings and is in the void.

The emperor said: Feng Hu?

Qi Bo said, "The atmosphere lifts it up."

Huang Di asked Qi Bo: "Is the earth at the bottom?"

Qi Bo replied: "The earth is just below people, in the middle of Taixu."

Huangdi asked again: "Taixu is empty, how can the earth be stable in the middle?"

Qi Bo said: "It was the atmosphere that lifted it up."

Damn, think about it now, our ancestors knew this truth two thousand years ago, isn't it weird?

Then Jiang Hao thought of the "Kai Tian Jing". The "Kai Tian Jing" records: "In the beginning of the world, Laojun came down from the void and became the teacher of Taichu. He uttered a "Kai Tian Jing" with 480,000 volumes. One volume has 480,000 words, and one word opened up a square of 100 miles to teach Taichu. Taichu began to distinguish heaven and earth, distinguish between the clear and the turbid, and the universe. He established images, set up north and south, and set east and west. He opened up darkness and revealed light. The light grid was up and down in four dimensions, inside and outside, long and short, thick and thin, male and female, white and black, big and small, high and low, and always like walking at night."

Isn't this the Big Bang theory of modern astronomy!

For a while,

Jiang Hao fell deeper and deeper.

He remembered too many Taoist classics in his mind. To be honest, he understood some of them, and some of them were just memorized and kept in his mind, but they didn't become his own things. Because of the Iron Blood Star Map, Jiang Hao's thinking was opened up, and he understood a lot of things at once. Those Taoist classics recorded in the depths of his mind suddenly surged up and spun in his mind.

Jiang Hao had a feeling that he might improve his Taoism.

Before, he thought that the "Iron Blood Star Map" was useless, but now it became the key to his improvement. Jiang Hao was very happy. Is this an unexpected surprise? Absolutely, and it was a great joy.

No,

You need to find a quiet place to practice well, and think clearly about the things that should be thought of in your mind. At that time, your Taoism will naturally increase.

The improvement of Taoism that Jiang Hao said was not spiritual power, but cultivating thoughts, consciousness, and one's own Taoism skills, and improving one's mind and character.

There is a saying: It is easy to cultivate magic power, but difficult to cultivate the mind.

Spiritual power can be increased by diligence, external objects, and sex, but it is very difficult to increase the mind. Nine and a half out of ten Taoist and Buddhist classics are about cultivating the mind, just because it is difficult to cultivate the mind, and it is even more difficult to increase the mind.

The Taoist ancestor said: "The Tao follows nature, and is quiet and inaction."

"The Tao is invisible, giving birth to heaven and earth; the Tao is ruthless, running the sun and the moon."

Zhuangzi said "heart fasting" and "sitting and forgetting". Heart fasting means the cessation of thoughts. Sitting and forgetting means the mind loses consciousness of the body and the universe, then gains consciousness of the Tao, and finally becomes one with the Tao.

The Buddhist classics include Diamond Sutra, Heart Sutra, Avatamsaka Sutra, Nirvana Sutra, Infinite Life Sutra, and Amitabha Sutra, and the basic principles are "precepts, concentration, and wisdom".

To become an immortal, the immortals must also go through countless kalpas of reincarnation to find their own "truth" and achieve the body of an immortal. In the process of cultivation, 99% of the time is actually on the road of cultivating the mind.

If you only pursue magic power and skills, your mind will not be able to control your desires, and you may eventually fall into the evil way of the devil.

It seems that I have thought a little too far.

This time, through the "Iron Blood Star Map", I have a deeper understanding of the universe, and suddenly I have a deeper understanding of the previous Taoist classics. Jiang Hao knows that when he absorbs this harvest, his Taoism will definitely improve. When his mind is cultivated, he can increase his skills with half the effort in the future.

Now he has to find a suitable place to practice?

Jiang Hao thought of a good place and took out a golden key with his hand to open the system panel.
