Although he knew that the people gathered here were all extraordinary, He Yuzhu was not a brainless person. Facing the question, he nodded politely and answered:

“I can understand the content. I never thought that such a unique and profound wisdom existed in our country in the ancient times.

If it weren’t for the potentially huge negative impact it may have, the wisdom in The Book of Insects could even be compared to the classic work Compendium of Materia Medica.”

Hearing this, the old man nodded approvingly:

"Indeed, as you said, this doctrine, like a sword, has both positive value and negative risks. If it is mastered by someone with bad intentions, it will undoubtedly cause great threats; on the contrary, if it is used by people with pure hearts and just purposes, it can also greatly promote the development of human society.

However, I have tried to study this technique and found that not only is it extremely difficult to identify insects, but it is also extremely difficult to cultivate suitable objects to control.

Because insects generally have a short life cycle and there are many species, they are difficult to find and domesticate.”

He Yuzhu already had the answer in his mind: although the contents of the book were quite complicated, everything became relatively easy with the help of the system. But he still politely responded to the old man's point of view: "Indeed, I also think there are many undiscovered secrets hidden here. Especially those ancient texts are extremely condensed, and often need to be chewed over and over again to understand the true meaning."

Hearing this opinion, the old man once again showed an expression of approval:

"You are right. The ancient sages were indeed outstanding representatives in various fields. However, after experiencing the baptism of many wars, too many precious cultural achievements have been lost forever..."

Listening to the old man's sigh, He Yuzhu also sighed:

"Yes, the ancients often treasured what they had, and many traditional skills were lost because of this!" The old man nodded in agreement and continued, "The books stored here are very precious. It seems that this is your first time here. Please be careful when reading."

He Yuzhu agreed immediately: "Okay, I know, everything here is so important, how could I damage it!"

Hearing this, the old man nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to enjoy his favorite book.

He Yuzhu once again devoted himself to his research on insect arts, wondering if he could further improve his skill level to gain a glimpse of higher-level traditional knowledge. Seeing that He Yuzhu was reading the book attentively, the old man turned around with satisfaction and continued his reading.

When he upgraded the "Insect Control Technique" in his hand to the fourth level and understood the inheritance, he decided not to continue studying this book. "Because the fourth-level secrets mostly involve the knowledge of 'spiritual insects', where in the world can such creatures exist? I have been looking for them everywhere for so many years, but I have never seen them with my own eyes." He Yuzhu thought so, and then he chose another book to start reading. This book talked about agricultural farming knowledge, but he had already mastered the seventh-level planting techniques, so he only improved his proficiency in the content of the book a little. After reading, He Yuzhu put the book back in its place.

Another old man noticed this scene, walked up to He Yuzhu and questioned: "Little brother, don't you value the method of farming?"

He Yuzhu was slightly surprised and explained, "How could that be? You may have misunderstood. You saw me read the previous book over and over again, but I only glanced at this one and put it down. The fact is, I am already very familiar with the information in this book."

The old man glanced at He Yuzhu and asked with a hint of curiosity: "Oh, you can fool me? Every book here is unique and has never been leaked. How dare you say that you know the contents that I can find here?"

He Yuzhu patiently explained: "Old man, I really have no intention of deceiving you. In fact, I am responsible for supervising the growth of many crops. The application of modern drip irrigation technology and chemical fertilizers is also the result of my personal research."

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the old man seemed very surprised, "What? You mean, modern agricultural technology was developed by you?" Seeing the other party's doubt, He Yuzhu nodded affirmatively: "Yes, with your identity, it should be easy to verify this matter!"

At this time, someone commented: "Farmer, you have met a great master. I have said before that agricultural production depends on scientific progress. If the agricultural technology of the ancients was really so advanced, why is there still little progress today?"

Upon hearing this, the old man who questioned He Yuzhu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Witnessing this scene, He Yuzhu said: "Indeed, our ancient ancestors were very talented, but they were restricted by their thoughts..."

With an attitude of taking things as they come, I only touched upon a few things superficially, but I explored some aspects in great depth.

For example, agricultural technology. Today's development level, supported by mechanization and high technology, has not remained stagnant. The thousands of years of agricultural civilization has made rapid progress in the face of modernization.

However, there are still many areas that have not yet been explored by modern people.

Just like the insect part discussed earlier, perhaps there are still people studying this today, but probably no one can explain it as thoroughly and profoundly as in the book just mentioned.

Even among modern experts in biology, it is estimated that few people can reach the level of depth described in the book. Although the writing is ancient and difficult to understand, after reading it thoroughly, you will find that the content is extremely rich! "

Several elderly people around seemed to have read the book, and they all nodded slightly when they heard the words.

The old man who had previously questioned He Yuzhu for not paying attention to agriculture apologized to him:

"Comrade, I am sorry for my preconceived misunderstanding of you! I just don't want anyone to ignore the importance of agriculture."

He Yuzhu nodded gently and responded:

“Old man, I understand your concerns. After all, our country is a big agricultural country and it also bears the life needs of more than one billion people.

If we do not take this issue to heart, it will be difficult to ensure that all people have enough food and clothing.

Looking back at the situation a few years ago, if water-saving irrigation technology and high-yield seeds had not been invented, the famine would have been even more tragic.

Even today, many of our compatriots still face the dilemma of not having enough food to eat.

Therefore, there is still a long way to go on this road of agricultural development.

But I firmly believe that as more and more outstanding talents emerge in our country,

It will surely promote the emergence of more advanced agricultural technology, which will then contribute more to the country’s food security.”

The old man sighed upon hearing this:

“Alas, food research is a difficult and lengthy undertaking. Crop growth requires a long period of time, and it is impossible for people without strong willpower to persevere.
