Beyond the Noisy World: The Long Lost Eight Sects: 282, small test

lnmao.org, the fastest update outside: the latest chapters of the eight disappeared!

After everyone visited Xianchi, the ancestral island owner hosted a banquet in the front hall of the ancestral shrine to entertain the distinguished guests, accompanied by more than 30 people. Jiufang Likong Island still adopts the Guro-discussion system since ancient times, which is a bit of a primitive clan society. There are a total of nine clan elders here, and each clan elder has two deputies. Most of them also serve as leaders of various administrative villages outside.

The so-called clan elders are not necessarily very old. This is just a term. For example, Wenjie and Longjun are among the clan elders, but they are only 30 or 40 years old. Above the clan elder is the clan chief, also known as the island owner, now Zong Feixia, the 96-year-old evildoer. Whenever there is a major issue in Jiufang Likong Island, the patriarch will convene all the elders to discuss.

If it is a particularly important matter, the elders of the tribe will gather all the tribesmen to discuss it in the square. However, it is impossible for all the more than 10,000 members of the tribe to express their opinions, and it is the leaders of the dozens of tribes that represent everyone's wishes.

At today's reception, all important figures from Jiufang Likong Island attended. Zhu Shanxian's previous judgment was correct. The visitors who have been to Jinshanyuan are either these important people or their children. The tribes who are planning to visit Jinshanyuan are actually these people.

Many of the dishes at the dinner are no different from the outside, but the ingredients are very fresh, they are produced locally on the day, and they have a unique flavor. The wine is also locally brewed. When there was no word at night, a separate two-story small building was arranged by Xianchi for two guests to rest. The lord of the island confessed that the idlers and others should not be disturbed, and they should not be onlookers in the distance.

The lord of the ancestor told Ding Qi and Xian Hao that if there is something to say hello, there is a two-story building 50 meters away from Xianchi, where there are staff on duty 24 hours a day. Hearing the call will fly over. They do everything for their own convenience in Jiufang Likong Island. There are no restrictions. The only taboo is not to break into the courtyard where the lord of the ancestral island resides and the back pavilion of the ancestral temple.

After nightfall, the lights on the nine floating islands gradually went out, and this fairyland-like outer world was peaceful and quiet. There is a tall laurel tree outside the small building. The leaves are gently shaking in the breeze, and the sound is very small. Xian Hao sat on the treetop, looking at the moonlight in the sky.

The top of the laurel tree is very thin. Under normal circumstances, she can't sit still. In fact, she is suspended in the air. Ding Qi walked out of the house, held the tree trunk to tap the branches, and boarded the laurel tree and sat beside her. Xian Hao stretched out her hand, and a teapot and two cups flew out of the window. She grabbed the teapot and poured tea on both cups and said, "The people here grow and collect homemade black tea. It tastes very fragrant." /

Ding Qi took the cup and took a sip and said: "Although it is not impossible to take things out of the fairyland, it is also extremely difficult. The products can only be used by themselves. The products or services that can be truly traded with the outside world can only be The Sishuiping outside is provided, and many materials needed by the people here have to be transported in from outside."

Xian Hao: "So they can't really be isolated from the world."

Ding Qi smiled: "Although since ancient times, the people here have lived in Sishuiping outside, but in the past 100 years, the clan has moved into the outside world, and it has been more than one generation. Now almost all All of the people of the tribe were born in the outside world, this is the world they are used to."

Xian Hao waved her hand, and the teapot flew back into the house. She changed a leaning position and said: "It feels really free. Not only can I fly, but it can also control objects in the air. Every ordinary person here Live like a god."

Ding Qi also changed a leaning position, looking like he was being held up by the branches and leaves on the treetops. He looked at Xian Hao sideways and said: "Lie down too comfortable, don’t fall asleep, otherwise you will fall. Go down."

Xian Hao glared at him and said: "How can it be possible to fall asleep! Whether you are controlling your body to fly in the air or manipulating objects from the air, you need to keep your mind in a very focused state, especially when you are in flight while controlling foreign objects. , It’s not easy, I just tried it deliberately."

Ding Qi nodded and said: "This requires a considerable degree of concentration. While controlling oneself, he notices several objects. With the help of synaesthesia, it is difficult for ordinary people to do without special training, but people here But I'm used to it."

Xian Hao: "This is caused by their living environment. They have received such training consciously or unconsciously since they were young. Everyone is, as long as they have a normal IQ, they can learn it."

Ding Qi: "But the gravity here is actually not abnormal, it is the same as the outside world."

Xian Hao: "When I arrived at the square during the day, I saw an old man flying from the sky, flying over with a chair. He was in control while flying, playing well. He sat on a chair and smoked a pot. , And soot falls normally. The environment here does not naturally lead to osteoporosis, but the people here seem to be very thin."

While in Jinshanyuan, Ding Qi found that Liang Lu, Long Qingqing and others were obviously strong and weak. This is relatively speaking, not that these people are unhealthy. The local residents they met in Sishuiping looked normal, but after walking into Jiufang Likong Island, they found that they were all in good physical shape.

Thousands of people gathered in the square to watch the excitement. When I glanced over, Ding Qi didn't find a fat man, which was a bit strange. The reason is of course not that they live badly and are malnourished, but that they consume too much.

Here you can use your mind to control things. Many things don't need to use your body. Of course, many people are indifferent and weak. It is said that they should gain weight, but this is not the case. Whether it is flying or mind control objects, in many cases it also requires physical exertion.

Holding a teapot in the air or flying up to a mountain is much less physically demanding than picking it up with your hands or walking up it on foot, and it can be done easily. But it is also because it is so easy that you only need to use your thoughts to do anything, so the daily activity of the locals unknowingly far exceeds that of normal people, and on the contrary, it consumes much more energy than the outside human body.

So every village outside has built a large fitness center to allow these people to exercise after going out. The latest local policy is to encourage people to exercise and strengthen their muscles.

The two lay on the treetops for a while, Ding Qi sighed: "This place is really blessed!"

Just hanging in the air, it doesn’t seem to consume any physical strength. In fact, you have to maintain a state of mental focus. Over time, people will be very tired and consume a lot of energy, and the consumption of energy is the consumption of physical strength. At this point, local people are inherently more capable than outsiders, because they have undergone continuous intensive training since they were young.

Not only are they energetic, but they can stay awake and focused on the "entry" state for a long time, which is difficult for most ordinary people to do.

Xian Hao: "Did you solve your doubts?"

Ding Qi: "I already understand it. I'll walk around tomorrow, take a good look, and then find the right person to ask."

After breakfast the next day, Ding Qi was still wearing his own clothes, while Xian Hao changed into the local clothes. The two wanted to wander around in Jiufang Likong Island, and told the lord of the island that there is no need to specialize. Send someone to accompany you. The lord of the island said with a smile: "Please do everything yourself, don't see outsiders. Everyone here knows you, even if you didn't know you before, you will know who the two are when you meet."

Ding Qi still walks, but his feet are very fast, while Xian Hao walks and flies away from time to time by his side. His appearance and posture are very beautiful. The main island covers an area of ​​tens of square kilometers, and a pedestrian walkway has been built around the foot of the mountain, and it is paved with exquisite colored bricks.

This trail around the island has eight forks, connecting eight floating jade steps to eight other islands. The atmosphere of life here is obviously also influenced by the times outside. There is a publicity sign at the intersection. The slogan is "Be down to earth". There is a line of small characters with dashes under these four big characters: "-- Clan Lao Hui Xuan!"

If this is also a township, then the main island is equivalent to the township government and market town, and the other eight secondary islands are eight mountain villages inhabited by clusters. People have built scattered houses on the island. The courtyard landscape of each house is very beautiful. Fields have been opened up on the gentle slopes near the houses. Shops and workshops can also be seen in the village.

The largest local store still has the shadow of a certain era. It is called "Xiandao Supply and Marketing Cooperative". It cannot be regarded as a state-run company. It should be said to be a public company in Xiandao. All kinds of goods purchased from outside are similar in layout to modern supermarkets. There are also some local specialties on the shelves, and the currency used here is Renminbi.

Since there are farmland and vegetable fields on the island, there are of course also water conservancy irrigation facilities. They are all built according to the topography. There are lakes and dams high above, which are semi-artificial and semi-natural reservoirs. Where does the water on the mountain come from? There is also rain in the Jiufang Likong Island, and a stable climate cycle has been formed in the interior of this world.

The family rules of Jiufang Likong Island have been revised and developed since ancient times. They have been considered for all possible situations. Some clauses are even similar to the rules in Qin Gaotai Heavenly Kingdom, and they have been compiled into Compulsory textbooks for the upper grades of elementary schools, which are textbooks outside of the national nine-year compulsory education syllabus.

The policy of Jiufang Likongdao, or family rules, not only protects agriculture and handicrafts, but also limits their scale, because no matter how large this wonderland is, resources are limited, and it is necessary to protect the environment.

So the production scale of the farmland and workshops on the island is based on a premise: If the door needs to be closed for a long time under special circumstances, the local production can ensure the most basic daily life of the people in the fairyland. But under normal circumstances, no one is satisfied with the most basic life. Everyone still prefers the conveniences brought about by modern civilized society.

There is no centralized power supply system in Fangwai World, but almost every household is equipped with solar panels and power storage devices. These products must be purchased from outside. Solar energy is mainly to ensure the most basic lighting needs, and occasionally to charge small electrical appliances, the most important is to charge mobile phones, the local area prohibits the use of large power generation equipment such as diesel generators.

You can also swipe your mobile phone here, but the mobile phone does not have any network signal, and you can neither make calls nor connect to the Internet. It can only be used as a stand-alone handheld entertainment facility. You can download things from the outside and watch or play inside. .

Ding Qi found that many elderly people were also playing PAD, and when they called their children to go out, they downloaded some new content and brought them in, because they saw it from other old men and women.

Ding Qi and Xian Hao walked in the village and were warmly welcomed by every family. The locals are so hospitable, because there have never been outside guests. People took out the best things in their homes and asked them to taste them. Almost every family had to keep them for dinner and brought them various side dishes and snacks made by themselves.

The lord of the clan is right. Everyone knows them. Even if they haven't seen them yesterday, they will know who they are if they meet today. Of course, it is impossible for Ding Qi and Xian Hao to eat in every household, so they could only politely decline, taste some snacks and praise them.

They also saw a wine shop and an oil shop on the island. The wine is brewed with a traditional technique, and the oil is also a traditional technique of low-temperature canola oil. The traditional low-temperature wood squeezing process is actually very inefficient. If it is not handled well, there are more impurities in the oil, and the shelf life is relatively short, but the taste is good, and the food that the locals usually eat is also fresh.

Processing wood to press oil is very tiring work, but it is different here. Instead of directly manipulating the press bed, you use your mind to control these old-fashioned equipment. Of course, it saves much effort and does not require too much effort. High yield.

The area of ​​the eight secondary islands is about ten square kilometers, which is quite large. The nine islands together only live with more than 10,000 people. In fact, they appear to be very empty, with large areas of natural garden-like mountains and wilds.

The residents on the island should have been ordered to only receive guests at their own homes, and did not go around with the two guests, otherwise Ding Qi and Xian Hao would have to walk around, and they would have to pull thousands of people behind them. They didn't have lunch, and they were full of various snacks at various shops along the way. When they went to the fifth island in the afternoon, Ding Qi finally found the person he was looking for.

This is in a mountain forest. There is no one else around. A teenage boy hopped down from the mountain and looked around with alert eyes from time to time, as if there was some secret. His jumping posture is also very interesting, just like a long stride gliding, and the running is accompanied by a short-distance flight that controls the body.

It is also impossible for people here to fly or control objects with their minds all the time. That requires a high degree of mental concentration, which is always the case and no one can bear it. In fact, most of the time, people are in a normal state, but when they are on the road, working and doing things unintentionally, they bring local unique habits, which can save a lot of effort.

The boy ran down from the mountain and happened to see Ding Qi and Xian Hao walking in the forest. He quickly stopped, and said in a shy and curious tone: "Are you visiting guests from outside?" When he was speaking, he also deliberately glanced at Xian Hao more secretly, for a teenager, Xian Hao is really too beautiful.

Ding Qi smiled and said: "We are the guests from outside. What is your name? I saw you in the square yesterday."

The kid did go to the square to watch the excitement yesterday. He fell to the ground and stood farther away, but Ding Qi remembered him. The boy replied: "My name is A Rui and I live at the foot of the mountain. How did you get in?"

Xian Hao: "The ancestor Zong invited us to come. We are friends with many people here."

Ari rubbed his hands in excitement and said: "That's it, that's great!"

This is a bit strange, why is it so good? Ding Qi didn't ask any further, took out a handful of things from his pocket and handed it to A Rui, "You just ran to the mountain to play, haven't you eaten lunch? There are a lot of snacks here, all of them are the best here. ."

Ding Qi and Xian Hao have been shopping for so long, and they also grabbed some delicious and easy-to-carry snacks, and at the moment they took them out and handed them to A Rui. A Rui all took it and put it in his pocket. They tasted a few bites and said: "This should be the sugar lump made by Grandma Long's house. This is the fried noodles from Wuxi's house... This is the best, I don't know if it is. Who made it."

Ding Qi pointed to a few big rocks next to him and said, "Eat slowly, can I ask you some questions?" He sat down as he spoke.

Ari also sat down and said: "Just ask what you want, but you must keep it confidential after you go out. You can't tell outsiders. The ancestor must have told you."

Xian Hao nodded and said: "Yes, the ancestor Zong told us a long time ago, otherwise he would not invite us in."

Ding Qi asked: "How old are you?"

Ari: "I'm thirteen years old and I'm in junior high school."

Ding Qi: "When did you learn to fly?"

Ari blinked his eyes and said: "Three or four years old, the earliest thing I can remember is to learn to fly, but at that time flying very badly, always shaking."

Ding Qi: "So what about the other kids?"

Ari: "They are all the same."

Xian Hao interjected: "Did it all start when I first remembered?"

Ari: "Yes, yes, it really started when I just remembered. Some people are late, some people are early, almost the earliest thing I can remember is to learn to fly slowly."

Xian Hao: "People here can both fly and control things, which is enviable. Can you show us that? Can you make the rock float?"

She pointed to a small stone on the ground, and Ari smiled braggingly: "That's not easy!" She said and pointed her hand, and the stone floated to a height of one person and hovered in the air. .

Xian Hao: "You don't need to point at it?"

Ari put down his hand and said: "You don't need to point your finger, just get used to it, it seems to be easier."

Xian Hao asked again: "What if you don't need to look at it?"

Ari closed his eyes and said, "You don't need to look at it."

Xian Hao: "You can't see it, how do you know its location?"

Ari: "If I can control it, I can feel it."

Xian Hao: "Let's take a small test, OK, you turn around and don't open your eyes, let go of this stone, can you still feel it?"

A Rui did what Xian Hao said, and saw the stone slowly fall to the ground. In fact, he can "release" the stone directly, but the local people have been educated and cultivated since childhood, that is, the controlled objects cannot be suddenly released, and must be placed in a fixed position. From this detail, we can also see how they learned and trained this ability since childhood.

After the stone was out of A Rui's control, Xian Hao said again: "Don't open your eyes or turn around now, can you still make the stone float?"

Ding Qi pointed slightly when she was speaking, and the stone had moved silently. After trying for a long time, A Rui finally shook his head and said: "No, it won't work, I can't feel it and can't control it... I haven't done this before, and I usually control it after seeing something."
