09200-Main and auxiliary

"We don't understand the elder's thinking very well. But do you feel that if Elder You wants to erase your aura from the Zangshu Pavilion formation, is it easy?"

Me: "Of course it's easy. A matter of thought."

"So, it's not inappropriate, right? Even if your aura stays in the Zangshuge array and it really caused bad influence, it can be erased immediately when the bad influence appears, and before the bad influence appears, It feels lovely to have your breath here."

"Top cuteness."

"Let the disciples who came to Zangshu Pavilion to read the materials smell the smell of cats by the way."

I reached the third floor, and then went to the fourth floor.Some disciples of Zhongsumen who followed me to the third floor could not continue to follow me to the fourth floor, but some of the disciples who were originally reading materials on the third floor participated in the following activities.

I can't accuse them of being too involved in the fun, because they discussed how I became the medium of the expansion array in a seemingly academic way, and some of the ideas were very inspiring to me.

"Your permission to go upstairs should not be in place at once, but the permission to the next step will be given to you after you walk up the first step."

Me: "Will Elder You have at least a little spiritual awareness to keep an eye on my going upstairs?"

"It doesn't take much effort. Elder You often spreads his divine sense all over the entire Zangshu Pavilion."

Me: "But if this is the way to open the authority, is it me or Elder You who becomes the lead for the expansion of the array?"

"Elder You is the master and you are the assistant. It is the same as the formation process of the main body in this array."

When I mentioned the master and assistant, my heart moved, and I guessed that the process of going upstairs to expand the array might be a test set by Elder You to select a research assistant for the new book.I don't know if I have passed the current assessment performance.

09201-seventh floor

There are seven floors in Zhongsumen Library Pavilion, and I have already reached the fourth floor.According to conventional standards, the materials on the fourth floor are mainly for viewing by the Yuanying period of Zhong Sumen, the fifth floor mainly collects the materials of Huashen level, and the collection standard of the materials on the sixth floor is not based on the level but directly related to the core of Zhong Sumen , As for the seventh floor, it should be a place to discuss the future development direction of Zhongsumen.

The seven book collection pavilions basically have such a structure-maybe Jianzong's is a little messy-the three three library collection pavilions have two more floors, corresponding to Mahayana-level materials and immortal conjectures.When the top ten open the Library Pavilion to the outside world, they generally open up to the fourth floor, that is, the materials up to the level of Yuanying. The materials of the Huashen Mahayana level are rarely opened to outsiders in the form of the Library Pavilion. Instead, the materials of the Huashen Mahayana Sitting together with Bie Jiahuashen Mahayana Qi in a place outside of Zangshu Pavilion to discuss and communicate.

Of course, I didn't get permission to view the materials of other floors except the first floor today, so I can only stand on the stairs to see the layout of each floor.The intuitive feeling is that the higher the floor, the farther the distance between every two jade frames, and the more deserted it looks.The fifth and sixth floors even gave me a feeling of emptiness and loneliness, and when I walked up the stairs on the fifth and sixth floors, no one continued to follow me. I seemed to be able to hear the echo of every time I stepped on the stairs, even I made sure that I controlled the strength of the landing, and theoretically there should be no footsteps.

For a moment, I almost had the illusion that I was the only one left in the entire library, or when I was concentrating on studying the expansion method of the formation, the stairs I stepped on brought me to a space with a high degree of isolation without my noticing. Inside.

But when I stepped into the seventh floor, this feeling dissipated immediately.

The seventh floor feels a bit like a conference room. Although the layout is still much looser than a serious conference room, at least it can be seen that many people can gather here to discuss matters.

The entire seventh floor is very bright, the roof and walls are transparent, and the sunlight directly pours in, making the whole floor look very suitable for cats to lazily paralyze.Looking outside, you can see a large area inside the Zhongsu Gate without line-of-sight isolation, but I’m sure you can’t see the decorations on the seventh floor when you look at the top floor of the Zangshu Pavilion from outside the Zangshu Pavilion. In fact, you can’t see it from the outside. I don't know how many floors there are in Zangshu Pavilion.

Elder You is sitting not far from the stairs at the moment. When I first arrived on the seventh floor, he didn't pay attention to me immediately, but after I finished observing the situation on the seventh floor that I could see, Elder You looked at me, and with my Looking at each other, he gestured for me to sit in front of him.

I tried to take a step, and found that my movement authority on the seventh floor was no longer limited to the stairs.

Elder You: "Actually, although it is not easy for outsiders to enter this level, there has always been no restriction on this level, because you can see that there is not much information here, and the only information I can tell you directly, If there is no explanation by Elder Zhong Sumen, not only you will not be able to understand, but you will not even be able to understand the Kunlun Mahayana period, not because they have high anti-foreign and defensive attributes, but because the thinking is too Zhong Sumen."

09202- Will protect myself

Elder You: "Of course, I don't mean that you can try to read the information on this layer at will. These materials are not willing to be watched and played by outsiders."

Me: "Not happy with the information?"

Elder You: "My subject is correct."

I lowered my head and looked at the array that continued to expand with my footsteps.I feel like I am a ball of untied wool, and as I walk, the thread is scattered everywhere.

Elder You: "For sects with a long history, the main formations of the sects have conscious bodies. Of course, the formations of departments that were originally arranged at the same time as the formations of the sects can also have a small amount of materials and items that have existed since the establishment of the sect. .”

Me: "But during the catastrophe period, at least half of the main formation of the sect can basically be preserved, and the chances of saving valuable materials and items are relatively high because they are easy to carry around, but the partial formation is likely to be completely destroyed. Because in the big In the impact of the disaster, the conventional departmental structure is useless, so most of the departments will be disbanded, and the disciples will form a team that is more conducive to self-protection and protection of valuable materials and items in an unconventional environment."

Elder You: "During a catastrophe, disciples really don't care about useless departmental buildings and arrays, but mature arrays will protect themselves. At that time, those arrays will also realize that their regular functions are useless, So they threw away those routines and only focused on defense and evasion. You should be able to believe that the formations of all departments have done careful handling to prevent disciples from destroying the structure of the formation?"

Me: "There is no doubt about it. The proportion of unlucky children among the disciples of the sect is too high, and some of them have too high a level of cultivation. The department team will try their best to prevent them from taking advantage of the loopholes and prevent them from transferring the normal transfer of the department to Wanbeng."

Elder You: "Actually, the departmental formation is better than the sect formation in this respect. In daily life, disciples of the sect attack the sect formation at most to destroy the monitoring and recording function of the sect formation, but when attacking the sect formation, it is simply I can’t wait to paralyze the department for a few minutes, so that I can go to places that I can’t reach with my authority, satisfy my curiosity, read illegal materials, and dig holes for fellow students who have festivals..."

Elder You: "When the elders of the sect think about whether the sect formation needs to be revised and improved, they generally have to carefully figure out and assume what attacks the sect formation may encounter; , You only need to see what mistakes were made when the divisional formation was actually exploited by the disciples. The disciples' whimsical ideas and action ability to act when they think about it can spread all the tiny hidden dangers of the divisional formation into reality."

Elder You: "Actually, in the era when sects often fought to the death between sects, sect formations would frequently encounter various realistic tests. At that time, the elders did not have to dream about perfecting sect formations, and could aim at reality every time. The function of intimidating foreign enemies that can be used immediately by foreign attacks and sects themselves can be improved. But in modern times, the practice in this area is too lacking. Even if the elders try to make up for it with fantasy, it is impossible to make up for it comprehensively. Just like our lack of reality The soaring fantasy of the operation is basically equivalent to storytelling, and once there is a heavy blow from reality, it may collapse."

09203 - Exhaustive is not necessarily exhaustive

Elder You changed the subject, and suddenly said: "You pretended to be the first time you heard these things, and even the breath of spiritual power revealed a sense of curiosity. When you were young, Huigu liked to tell you stories, didn't you?" Is it also because I like your cute and curious aura?"

Me: "...you may have to ask Elder Huigu about her interests. Also, I am not pretending to be curious. Although I have indeed heard part of what you said, but expressed in your way of explanation, I am indeed It’s the first time I’ve heard it. Moreover, Elder You, your eloquent narration rhythm has also brought me a lot of freshness. Your current performance is completely different from the feeling I communicated with you before.”

Elder You: "Can just changing the way of expression bring you freshness?"

Elder You: "For a while, when the ten elders gathered together for meetings, discussions, or just doing anything, it was very popular to disguise themselves in various appearances. The taciturn ones pretended to be talkative, the ones who liked to show off pretended to be low-key, and the complicated ones pretended to be stupid. Sweet, pretending to draw a sword when a word doesn't fit... I've been playing like this for a long time. It's not trying to deceive anyone through those disguises that are completely different or even diametrically opposed to my usual performance, but to see others In order to achieve a disguise, I deliberately do things that I don’t like at all, and I may even have scolded them, I feel... the contrast is cute.”

Elder You: "It's a pity that when you are interested in a certain type of thing during the Huashen Mahayana period, you will be too active and efficient to try all the combinations under this category, use exhaustive methods to dig out all the freshness, and then Return to the state of "Oh, this, I have experienced it" when looking at everything. And the feeling of burnout, such as the elder Peng Qinru, who is particularly serious, may also have the mood of "It's so boring, it's ruined."

Me: "I also used the exhaustive method when I was studying the Yujian Array, and found what I think is the optimal solution."

Elder You: "You have been in contact with the Mahayana stage of Huashen Mahayana a lot, so some habits are similar to the Mahayana stage of Huashen Mahayana. This kind of mentality that you have in advance may sometimes help you see things that you can't see at this level of cultivation. It gives you some advantages, but more often, it will become a burden. It is not worthy of children to be happy when children live the life of adults in advance, and the mismatch between psychological and physical conditions often leads to very bad consequences.”

Me: "What I want to say is that the exhaustive method does not necessarily dig out all the novelties of a class of things. Because exhaustion often refers to all the development possibilities of the matter that can be found in the existing cognition, But if the cognition expands in the future, it may be discovered that there are actually more ways to develop the matter, and the previous exhaustive list has not been exhausted."
