Journey to the West, there are nine golden crows in me

Chapter 912
The longer the world is in chaos, the more people will die and the more people will be affected.

And this is Jiang Chen's crime.

"Mencius said: The people are the most important, the community is second, and the king is the least! You are also scholars, and you didn't listen to a word of the saint's words."

The more Jiang Chen spoke, the angrier he became, and his tone gradually became stricter.

The six people were taught by him so that they dare not speak, and they can't even rely on the old to sell the old.Don't look at Jiang Chen who looks much younger than them, but when it comes to actual age, he is older than their grandfather.In front of Jiang Chen, they are just a group of dolls, how can they rely on the old to sell the old?
In the end, it was the old Confucianist who, facing Jiang Chen's stern gaze, said out of overall consideration: "Corrupt officials should be killed, but the world will ultimately be governed by them. If we kill them, Who will run the country?"

This is the helplessness of ancient times. Knowledge is monopolized by aristocratic families. Ordinary people don’t even know how to read, how can they govern the world?

This is the reason why the family cannot be destroyed. If the family is destroyed, no one will rule the world.

"If there are billions of clones alone, the officials in the world will die. If there is only one person, you can rule the world. What do you think?"

Looking at him, Jiang Chen said coldly.

Manpower is limited, but his power is unlimited. Without officials, he can do it himself.It doesn't take long, just a few decades, and young people will grow up to take his place.

"I have already said that there is no one who cannot be replaced. The blood of the family is noble. Among the people in this world, counting back a few generations, which family has not produced a big man?"

"Inherited for millions of years, the blood of the Emperor has long been integrated into the bodies of all the clansmen. Each of them has the blood of the Emperor in their bodies. Which one is inferior?"

"Whether a person is noble or not has nothing to do with his blood, but with his deeds. It depends on what contributions he has made to the world."

"For the people, he is praised by his neighbors; for the rich, he is praised by his fellow villagers; for an official, he is praised by the people under his rule; for an emperor, he is loved by all people."

"If they can do that, then they are nobler than others."

"On the contrary, those who serve the people make their neighbors feel uneasy, those who are rich are hated by their fellow villagers, those who are officials are regarded as enemies by the people under their rule, and those who are emperors are reviled by all the people. I wish I could die with them."

"There is no doubt that no matter how noble the blood of these people is, they are still despised."

"Besides, common people make mistakes and they can be corrected. That's because ordinary people have limited abilities. Even if they try their best, how much trouble can they cause?"

"Hundred officials hold far more power than ordinary people. If they make mistakes, they will harm a family at least, and even harm counties and cities at worst."

"The emperor has more power than all the officials. If he makes a mistake, even if it is only a slight mistake, it will be an unbearable mountain if it falls on the people. If he makes a big mistake, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe. Families are broken and families are displaced.”

"So, ordinary people can make mistakes, but officials, but the emperor can't. If they make mistakes, they will kill people."

"Confucians are what people need. Why do sages create Confucianism and Taoism? It is to let you, a group of Confucians, plead for the people when the king makes mistakes, and meet the needs and thoughts of the people."

"If the king treats his ministers like brothers and feet, then his ministers will treat him like his heart; if he treats his ministers like dogs and horses, then his ministers will treat him like a countryman; if he treats his ministers like dirt, then his ministers will treat him like a bandit."

"The sage has taught you the truth. If the king makes a mistake, you should testify against it. If the king obeys, it is naturally a wise king and minister."

"If the king refuses to listen and insists on making mistakes and endangering the people, then the people should be the most important thing. Yiyin Huoguang is in front, don't you know what to do?"

"It is natural to abolish the faint king and establish a virtuous one."

"Kings are wise, and Confucians follow them. Kings are cruel, but Confucians are the opposite. Putting the people first, and urging the needs of the people, this is the real Confucianism."

"Ask yourself, can you do it?"

The road of Confucianism and Taoism, from the moment they choose the supremacy of the imperial power, put the king and the country as the most important, and the people as the least, they have gone wrong.

This is why during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Confucianism and Taoism could have several saints coexisting in the world, but now, it is said that no saint has been born in a hundred years.Without the true meaning of Confucianism and Taoism, how can a saint be born?

"What the king taught me is that our vision is narrowed."

The six people were speechless by Jiang Chen's words, and they just kept admitting their mistakes.As for Jiang Chen's words, whether they listened to it or not is hard to say.

They are all great Confucianists, who have their own understanding of the world and the principles of the world. Even if Jiang Chen is right, they will not be changed by Jiang Chen in a few words.

How can the three views established for decades be broken in a few words.

"Knowing that you are wrong, act quickly. I will give you three days to write down all the actions of the major families, and even the civil and military actions of the Manchu Dynasty."

After talking for a long time, Jiang Chen was also tired, so he waved his hand and let them leave.

"According to the order!"

The six saluted and then withdrew.

They may not be persuaded by Jiang Chen, but they will definitely follow his orders.Because they are all smart people and know the truth that their arms can't twist their thighs.

How could Jiang Chen's strength be something they could contend with?Even the ancient clans were said to be destroyed at will, and a mere aristocratic family can naturally be destroyed with a snap of the fingers.

Asking them to collect criminal evidence is to give them a chance. If they don't do it, will Jiang Chen not be able to collect criminal evidence?The general trend cannot be changed, and they can only follow the trend.

Not only to collect criminal evidence from other families, but also to collect criminal evidence from your own family.It is better to kill a few members of the clan than to kill the whole clan.

……

"Still not convinced!"

Although the six people hid it well, Jiang Chen still saw the dissatisfaction in their eyes.

They thought that they were not convinced by Jiang Chen's principles, but by Jiang Chen's power, so they were naturally dissatisfied.

"How many people in high positions should not deserve to die? Even me, I should die too!"

Jiang Chen was very self-conscious, he never felt that he was a good person, according to his own theory, he deserved to die too.Therefore, if someone comes to kill him, he will not justify anything. Of course, not justifying does not mean not resisting.

If someone really wants to kill him, then he should still fight back.It's just that if someone really wants to be killed, there's nothing to complain about.

"The Black Bird Banner of Destiny!"

Withdrawing his thoughts, Jiang Chen looked at the Xuanniao Banner of Destiny in the center of the east view.

Around it, there are piles of bamboo slips, all of which are sage classics written by the great Confucianists themselves, containing a powerful aura of righteousness.It was this awe-inspiring righteousness combined with the surrounding culture that suppressed the Tianming Xuanniao Banner here.

Jiang Chen stepped forward, ignoring the awe-inspiring righteousness around him, and reached out to take the Destiny Black Bird Qi off.

The moment Jiang Chen got the Xuanniao Banner of Destiny, he couldn't help being in a trance for a while. He vaguely saw a sky-reaching building tree, which penetrated the three realms of heaven, earth and man. He even saw a huge black bird, perched on the building tree. .

Immediately afterwards, his vision began to zoom out, and Jianmu became smaller and smaller in his eyes, and then, the place where Jianmu was gradually revealed in front of his eyes.

It was a vast world with complete rules, the sun, moon, and stars in the sky, and mountains, rivers, and rivers on the ground.

It's just that this world is extremely desolate, and as far as the eye can see, there is no sign of any life activity.

And under the sky-reaching building tree, there are huge stone statues, like the most loyal warriors, firmly guarding the sacred tree.

Whoa!

Suddenly, the picture in front of Jiang Chen shattered like a mirror, and his mind returned to normal.

"Is this the Great Merchant Treasure House?"

"No wonder those great supernatural beings have been looking for it for so many years, but they can't find its whereabouts. It turns out that it is not in the Three Realms, but has turned into a vast world, wandering in the boundless void."

"Only when there is a drastic change in the fate of the human race, will it be inspired to fly towards the Three Realms from the infinitely distant time and space."

When he came back to his senses, Jiang Chen immediately understood that what he saw just now was the treasure house of a great merchant.Through the Xuanniao Banner of Destiny in his hand, he got in touch with the treasure house of the Great Merchant who did not know where, and thus knew his location.

Dissociated in the endless void, unknowable, unsearchable.

"Big Thousand Worlds!"

Even Jiang Chen was shocked by the handiwork of the big merchants at this moment. They turned the treasure house into a world. No wonder others couldn't find it no matter how hard they looked.

Tongtian Jianmu is the pillar of the great world, supporting the entire world.The mysterious bird perched on the tree is the remnant of the great merchants' national destiny and their spirit.

And the group of stone statues under the tree is the last heritage of the Great Shang, and also the last glory of the ancient martial arts.Those stone statues were all formed by the martial arts will of great accomplished ancient warriors after their fall.

What is a Dacheng Primordial Warrior?It is an ancient martial artist whose combat power is comparable to that of the Xiantian Daoist, but cannot live forever, and can only live for ten thousand years.

They fought for the human race during their lifetime, and left behind their martial arts will to continue to protect the human race after death.If the human race is in danger, these martial arts wills will be revived, and they will explode with power comparable to their life.

Although this kind of combat power is only temporary and cannot last for a long time, it can still greatly deter other forces and make all major forces frightened by it.

Thousands of martial arts will erupt at the same time, which is equivalent to thousands of innate Taoist priests. Even if it only lasts for an hour, it will be enough to kill the sky and the earth, and the blood will flow into rivers.

"This is the real background of the Great Shang Dynasty. When Wu Zhou defeated the Shang Dynasty, King Zhou knew that his destiny had been lost. He didn't use the background of the Shang Dynasty at all. Instead, he used the power of Xuanmen to make a final fight."

"If he used the true heritage of the Shang Dynasty, how could the mere Zhou Dynasty be able to destroy the Shang Dynasty? Not to mention adding the teachings, even adding human education and Buddhism, it is not enough for the big business."

"In less than a day, Da Shang will be able to destroy these three religions without the saint's action."

Jiang Chen said with emotion that Da Shang would rather perish by himself than consume the heritage of the human race. This kind of spirit is really impressive.

Some people may say that they are stupid, but these people have never thought about it. It is precisely because of the presence of such people that the human race can prosper to this day, and their luck is endless.

At that time, people's hearts were not bad, and faith was more important than life. Unlike later generations, people's hearts were corrupt, morality was corrupt, and evil was beautiful...

"Unfortunately, I can't leave Kyushu now, otherwise, I will go to the endless void to search for the whereabouts of the Great Merchant's treasure house."

At this time, Kyushu was in turmoil, and it was inconvenient for Jiang Chen to leave, but it was difficult to find the treasure house of the great merchant, so he could only wait for it to move closer to Kyushu.

But it doesn't matter, this period of time will not take long, as short as three or four years, and as long as three or 40 years, the treasure house of the great business will return.

"I have to say that the collection of books in the Eastern Han Dynasty is still very impressive. Even if all the aristocratic families in the world are added up, it is not necessarily as large as the collection of books in the imperial palace."

Putting away the Xuanniao Banner of Destiny, Jiang Chen looked at the ancient books of the saints around him.The Eastern Han Dynasty first inherited the collection of books from the Western Han Dynasty, and then the emperors of all dynasties also collected books, which led to the gathering of books in the world in Luoyang.

Books are good things, and knowledge is priceless. If the human race wants to develop, it cannot do without these books.

If Jiang Chen remembers correctly, according to the normal development time, the collection of books in the Eastern Han Palace, except some were taken away by Cai Yong and others, most of the rest were destroyed on the way Dong Zhuo moved the capital, or were destroyed by that hand. The fire burned cleanly.

"Hey, how can such precious wealth be destroyed in a sea of ​​fire?"

With a thought, Jiang Chen took away these books, not only here, but also other halls used to store books, and the books inside were also taken away by him.

The Jiang family has long researched paper and movable type printing.Just take these books back, let them print millions of copies of each, and spread them all over the world.

For Jiang Chen, how to popularize books, or even teach people to read and write, is not a difficult task.For this day, he has planned for hundreds of years and has already made a plan.

The Yuelai Inns throughout Kyushu are prepared for this purpose.Every inn has at least one scholar. As long as Jiang Chen gives an order, the Yuelai inn can immediately become a Yuelai school, teaching the people to read and write.

Whether it's practicing martial arts or cultivating immortals, no matter what you do, you'd better be able to read and write.

Illiterate, unable to understand Taoism, scriptures and martial arts, how can climb to the top?If you don't know how to count, you will be cheated and don't know.

……

After taking away the collection of books, Jiang Chen left the palace and wandered around the bustling city of Luoyang.

Even though the world was in chaos, it still did not affect Luoyang City. The place was still prosperous, and pedestrians came and went on the streets.

Jiang Chen didn't immediately attack the emperor and all civil and military officials. He was waiting for a person, a very special person for the human race.

This person is Huang Jiao's teacher, who taught Huang Jiao the Sutra of Taiping Dao.That's right, this person is Immortal Nanhua.

Nanhua, maybe not many people know this name, but when it comes to his other name, everyone is familiar with it.

Nanhua, surnamed Zhuang and named Zhou, is exactly the Taoist sub-sage Zhuangzi.

Zhuangzi, one of the pre-Qin scholars, like many other scholars, he is also the embodiment of a great man.
