A few days later, the pond that Kang Anyu had prepared was ready, and the bamboo was in place.
Yang Jian came to the side of the pool and threw the bamboo into the pool. Then, he threw in the quicklime that had been roasted in advance and added clean water to the pool.
After a set of processes, the preliminary work of making paper was basically completed. All that was left was to wait for the bamboo to ferment and rot.
This was to create paper that could be produced by mortals. Yang Jian naturally could not use magic to complete these steps in a few steps.
Otherwise, the focus would be on the paper and not the technology.
How much merit could a piece of paper have? The main source of merit was still the paper-making technique.
Paper making was the origin of paper, the divine tool of enlightenment. The most merit was naturally this technology.
Waiting for the bamboo to ferment and rot would take at least a year, or even two to three years. Of course, the bark would be very fast.
However, it was better to use tree bark sparingly. If large swaths of trees died, it would be hard to say who would get the Karma.
If he worked so hard to earn some merit points, it would be offset before he noticed it. That would be a huge loss.
Bamboo was different. It grew fast, so it could be used in large quantities without causing too much of an impact.
That thing didn't need to be replaced, so naturally, it would only evaporate. There was no need to worry too much about it.
After completing the first step of making paper, Yang Jian instructed Kang Anyu to choose a house in this place as the place where he would make paper in the future. Then, he returned to the Immortal Palace.
In the following days, Yang Jian would be very busy, sorting out ancient books and writing books.
These books weren't written casually, but were meant to be used to establish a foothold in the era of the Hundred Schools of Thought.
As a disciple of Chan School, the books he wrote had to first conform to the teachings of Chan School and use the teachings of Chan School as the core idea.
And if one wanted to gain a foothold among the hundred schools of thought, it was not enough to just have a thought. One also needed to have a technique to support this thought.
Later on, the Confucians were a little better, creating the skin of the Confucians and the bones of the Confucians.
Naturally, Yang Jian could not simply create something similar to the skin of a scholar and the bones of a mage. It only had thoughts and no ability to move.
In Yang Jian's opinion, the books he wanted to write were based on the teaching model of the later generations.
Starting from the enlightenment books, he had to carry out the thought of "obeying heaven and responding to man" of Chan School, with this as the center.
Then, he would use Confucianism's benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith as his moral standards, Legalism's discipline as his code of conduct, and a certain amount of martial strength and political experience to protect himself.
Finally, he used military, agricultural, engineering, medicine, arithmetic, and so on as teaching materials to teach his disciples the ability to move. The disciples he taught could not only make articles, but also have a skill.
Of course, if you can learn all of them, that's your ability.
In the process of learning, students could receive suitable disciples through investigation, which would be the foundation for developing Chan School.
Those disciples who were not included in Chan School would go out and enter the world to promote Chan School's reputation.
In the following days, Yang Jian waited for the bamboo to ferment and rot while he organized and compiled books. At the same time, he was also preparing for the other " printing " of the two divine weapons of enlightenment. Of course, ink was indispensable.
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the bamboo used by Yang Jian to make paper had finished fermenting and retting.
The next step of the paper-making process naturally had to continue. Yang Jian used the brocade to record it.
Then, he began to hammer. The effect of this step was very simple. It was to get more fibers out of the bamboo and lay the foundation for the subsequent steps.
To beat these rotten bamboos, Yang Jian took into account the physical strength of mortals and specially made a tackle to lift the stones used to beat the bamboos.
After the bamboo was hammered, Yang Jian continued with the steps of rinsing, fishing out paper, drying, cutting, and so on.
Yang Jian did every step himself without any help. He even recorded it down after he was done.
In the Immortal Palace, Yang Jian rubbed the snow-white paper and placed it under the movable type printing plate that was covered with ink. He gently pressed the movable type plate down and then lifted the printing plate. A page of the book was completed.
Yang Jian had just picked up the book when a huge amount of merit descended from the sky. This merit was even more than when he had completed the flood control at the mouth of the river.
As the merit fell, Yang Jian's own merit was naturally collected into the Merit Golden Wheel behind his head. The rest of the merit was either distributed to Kang Anyu and the others who dug the pond, or to the tools for making paper and printing.
Of course, the paper in Yang Jian's hand also contained merit.
Then, another vast Noble Qi fell from the sky. Half of it fell into Yang Jian's body, and the other half fell into the page.
This sudden righteous spirit was beyond Yang Jian's expectations.
The Noble Qi that entered Yang Jian's body automatically returned to the Daluo Dao Fruit in the auspicious cloud. Yang Jian estimated that this Noble Qi was the equivalent of a peak Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.
Yang Jian pondered for a moment. Perhaps it had something to do with the content printed on this page.
This was because what was printed on it was the Righteous Song that Yang Jian had adapted.
Looking at the paper in his hand that was flowing with Merit and Noble Qi, Yang Jian immediately decided that this page would be the treasure of the school.
This page contained Noble Qi. Under the nourishment of Merit and Noble Qi, it had already reached the level of a superior-grade Postnatal Merit Spiritual Treasure.
The function of this piece of paper was not only to suppress ghosts and gods, but also to allow people to comprehend the Noble Spirit.
In the future, if the students of the school couldn't walk the path of immortality, they could walk the path of literature. It was equivalent to giving these students another path.
However, this path was even more difficult than the immortal path to break through to the immortal level. The standard was probably to combine knowledge and action.
Yang Jian had caused a huge commotion again, but the Sage Zhunti of the Buddhist Sect was full of regret at this moment.
He sighed. If I had known that this child was so difficult to deal with, I would have made up my mind to send him to my sect.”
If the Honored Lord of the Origin had heard Zhunti's words, he would have taken out the Three-Treasure Jade Ruyi and smashed it on Zhunti's face.
Honored Lord of the Origin, who was living in the Chaos Dojo, felt that the fate that he had lost because of the five people's betrayal had not only been replenished in an instant, but had also increased greatly. The Heavenly Way, which had been somewhat vague in the past, became clearer and clearer at this moment.
Saint Taiqing, who also lived in the Dao Field of Chaos, summoned his Good Separation with a hand seal." Thank you for coming, Fellow Daoist!"”
"You and I are one, why are you saying that you need to trouble me?”After replying, the Good Separation put away a praying mat and left the chaos, heading south to Zhanbu Continent.
