Sanqing Inheritance System

Chapter 269, human nature is greedy

At this time, it was not Wuling Immortal who retorted, but Yang Zongjia, he said unconvinced.

"What's wrong with my Wuling? The people live and work in peace and contentment, have enough food and clothing, and are fed and clothed. Compared with the outside world, it's so good that I don't know where it is."

As the clan, he naturally knows some secrets that ordinary people don't know. He knows why this Wuling escaped from the world and escaped here, and he also knows the contrast between the mess of the outside world and this place.

"Of course, this is very good, and it is very valuable. The outside world is still in the midst of battles. Countries are fighting each other, scrambling for resources, and national fortune. It is not an exaggeration to fight for it. Living and working in peace and contentment here, with ample food and clothing, is like a paradise. It’s really good.” Li Guo changed the subject and said, “But if it’s really good, your lord wouldn’t ask me like that.”

Yang Zongjia was slightly at a loss for words, but he didn't know how to refute.

Indeed, if it is really so perfect as the kingdom of heaven, then the Wuling Immortal would not have to say so. Asking this question, it is true that there is some lack of confidence in the current situation of Wuling.

Wuling Xianjun said after a moment of silence.

"It's true in my Wuling. Since retiring from the world, I have lived and worked in peace and contentment, with ample food and clothing. However, for thousands of years, there have always been people who are not satisfied with ample food and clothing just like the man driving the horse-drawn carriage. There are also some crazy people who have discovered the secret of this closed place. Everything that wants to get out of here is drowned in the sea without guidance, I don't understand, why is this?"

The Immortal of Wuling has been thinking about this question and has been puzzled for many years.

People above Wuling can't get this question, now people from outside Wuling come in, so naturally they have to ask.

After pondering for a moment, Li Guo said leisurely.

"Xianjun, do you know what human nature is like?"

"What is human nature?" Wuling Xianjun asked doubtfully.

"Human nature is to fight and explore." Li Guo said: "Even though Wuling has lived and worked in peace and contentment for thousands of years, the 'unknown' in the open sea is still like honey, attracting people's hearts."

Wuling Xianjun shook his head and said.

"But our teaching materials say that there is nothing in the outer sea, so why do they dare to explore the endless nothingness with their flesh and blood?"

"Just like Columbus discovering the New World and discovering that the earth is round, in their era, for most people, there was only one continent in a round sky, but there were brave explorers who made this cage, and you couldn't suppress it. Edge is nature."

"Even though living and working in peace and contentment like this can destroy the mind, time goes by, and there will still be pioneers like 'Columbus' and 'Zheng He'. Because no matter how you suppress it, you can't erase the nature of the mind."

Li Guo said lightly.

Giving up living and working in peace and contentment, and giving up a life of adequate food and clothing may not be understood by many people.

But precisely because of this, those 'pioneers' who gave up these lives are so valuable.

"Well" Wuling Xianjun seemed a little puzzled, but also seemed to understand that this is caused by human nature, but he said: "Well, since these people who explore the outer sea and the sky are to explore the unknown, then driving outside the Trumen What about people who run amok? For hundreds of years, there have never been fewer people like this, and some people even resisted in an organized way. Why, isn’t Truman doing enough?”

Yan Zhu and Yang Zong's family on the side were dizzy when they heard it. A hundred years is long enough for human beings, but Wuling Xianjun opened his mouth and talked about hundreds of years, as if it was just a blink of an eye for him.

really like God
But at this time, Li Guo was talking eloquently.

"This involves another issue of human nature."

"You can call it self-motivation or you can call it desire."

"Desire?" Wuling Xianjun asked with some doubts.

"Well, this also leads to another problem in your Wuling." Li Guo stared at Wuling Xianjun seriously and said: "That is the solidification of class."

Class solidification?Words never heard.

This time, both Yang Zong's family and Wuling Xianjun held their breath, like students who are listening to the class seriously.

"Pimpedao asks you a question." Li Guo didn't look at Wuling Immortal, but at Yang Zong's family, and asked, "Your Wuling has stood for such a long time, how long has the longest-existing clan existed?" ?”

Naturally, this is not a problem for Yang Zong's family, he said.

"300 years, 300 years ago, Ye Junsheng invented the 'improved Liuma', because of his Liuma technology management, 300 years of accumulation, the strength of the Ye family can be called the horizontal ratio among all tribes It's top notch."

Li Guo asked with a smile.

"Then, how long is the average time for the major clans in Wuling to stand?"

"On average, about 150 years." Yang Zongjia responded skillfully again.

"What's the problem here?" Wuling Xianjun asked doubtfully.

"Xianjun, maybe for you, a hundred years is just a passing time, but for ordinary people, a hundred years is already a few generations." Li Guo said lightly: "And the problem lies in this famous master Standing here, although you have enough food and clothing here, and the people can eat and wear warmly, the problem is that there is a difference between eating well and wearing warmly."

"You can also eat bran and swallow vegetables, eat roasted chicken, and eat caviar and crab sauce. There is still a difference."

"Just like you Chucheng, compared to the borderland stupidity, the degree of development is a few points higher. This is 'comparison'."

Yang Zong's family is not stupid either, they have faintly discovered the problem.
"People who eat rice bran want to eat roasted chicken, those who eat roasted chicken want to eat caviar and crab sauce, and those who eat caviar and crab sauce want more." Li Guo pondered: "If everyone eats It doesn't matter if you eat bran-swallowed vegetables, but there are people who eat other things, do you understand? If there is a comparison, there will be harm, and it is not the shortage but the unevenness."

Wuling Xianjun also understood, and was a little silent. He also found that he had overlooked a problem.

desire.

Someone wants better.

"But it's not that my Wuling has no way to rise up. You know that studying the mechanism and calculation, and governing the country can also be promoted to a famous family." Yan Zhu couldn't help but said, after all, he used this method to promote his family to a famous family.

"Wuling has done a good job on this point, and there is a way to improve. It can be seen that your managers have put in a lot of effort." Li Guo admired, but then shook his head: "But the problem is here, this is the problem. The way to advance in Wuling is also the only way."

"In the outer seas, there is a way of class promotion called the 'College Entrance Examination'. It can make the children of poor families jump into the dragon gate, get into Tsinghua University and Peking University, and even become a national important weapon."

"Since that's the case, what's wrong with what we did?" Yang Zongjia was puzzled.

"You are not wrong. If you have to say something wrong, you can only be wrong because Wuling is too small."

Li Guo said indifferently: "Although there is a college entrance examination system in my land outside the sea, the college entrance examination is not the only way. Scholars have the talents of scholars, chefs have the talents of chefs, and laughers have the talents of laughers. In my vast land of China, As long as you study hard and work hard, you will reach the sky, and the college entrance examination is a shortcut, but it is not the only way.”

"In Wuling, the only way to do calculations and govern the country is the only way. So what can people with the talent of cooking, the talent of laughing craftsmen, and the talent of strength, what can they do? You can enjoy the best food and resources even if you don’t know how to count and rule the country, which will cause conflicts. It’s because of class conflicts.”

Yang Zongjia was a little dazed after hearing this, and then murmured.

"But what good does the cook and joker do to Wuling?"

"Yang Zongjia, we overseas have a word called 'constructing spiritual civilization'. After eating and drinking enough, people will start to pursue spiritual pleasure. People who are talented cooks can bring joy to people's spirits, so how can we say no What are the benefits?"

Li Guo pointed to the outside and said.

"Although your Wuling seems to be safe and prosperous, it has only one color, tricks, hobbies are tricks, what you like is tricks, what you use on weekdays is tricks, what you talk about is tricks, such a single world, Human nature is already suppressed, so why not try to diversify and develop, so that the talents of chefs, comedians, and writers can all be brought into play. Let them also have the opportunity to catch up with the descendants of famous families."

After these remarks, Wuling Xianjun was silent for a long time.

He never thought about the construction of spiritual civilization.

In his view, what people need is to have enough food, clothing and warmth to have children.

"When I first entered Wuling, everyone just wanted to eat enough." Wuling Xianjun said lightly: "A bowl of white rice can make the whole family happy for a long time."

"Xianjun, this is back to the original topic, 'desire', creatures always want more, progress, demand, are always the theme of creatures, not human beings."

Li Guo looked at the Wuling Immortal with a half-smile, and focused on the word 'human'.

Wuling Xianjun didn't react too much, but was a little emotional.

"I thought that by isolating them from the chaos and filth of the outside world, peace would always exist in Wuling."

"Competition brings progress." Li Guo also shook his head and said: "Born in sorrow, died in peace, now that Wuling has your protection, it is natural that the people live and work in peace, have enough food and clothing, and no worries in the past, but you can't protect Wuling forever. What will happen if you lose your protection and Wuling is exposed?"

Li Guo didn't give Wuling Xianjun any face.

Ordinary human beings have golden elixir with a lifespan of one thousand years. How long can he protect Wuling?After thousands of years, if you don't become a Nascent Soul, what should you do next?
"Then according to what Mr. said, what should we do?" Yang Zong used Mr.'s honorific title and was completely convinced.

Due to the limitations of his knowledge, he was hazy about many things. He knew that there were cruxes, but he didn't know what to do.

But after all, Yang Zong's family is one of the smartest people in Wuling, now after some advice, he is suddenly enlightened and hurriedly seeks a way to correct it.

There is a very good sentence that Yang Zongjia deeply remembered.

Born in sorrow, died in peace——

Progress in competition is the truth!

This made Yang Zongjia faintly think that when he was young, the time when he worked hard on the tricks and calculations was actually when he was a child and others were admitted to the Chumen boy student
Li Guo looked at Yang Zong's family, smiled slightly, and used the voice of a "preacher" in the next words.

"Change, open."

The two characters were deeply engraved in the minds of Yang Zong's family, Wuling Immortal, and Yan Zhu.
