Dao Fruit

"Bold! Dare to interrupt Master's lecture!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"This person has malicious intentions, capture him quickly!"

Amidst the angry accusations, Senior Brother Zhang and others drew their swords out of their sheaths and pointed them directly at Qiu Yan!

As the sword points, murderous intent spreads!

Even the people who were listening to the Taoist's lecture could feel the anger of the disciples of Ji Zhong Dao. Their eyes looking at Qiu Yan revealed various thoughts.

At this moment, a clear voice came from behind the incense burner——

"Zhang Bo, you all put your swords away first." The person who spoke was the Taoist sitting on the stage. After he said this, he looked at Qiu Yan with interest.

"But Master, this person..." Senior Brother Zhang was still angry after hearing the instructions, and wanted to give some advice, but was looked at with a cold look by the Taoist, and immediately fell silent and sheathed his sword.

Others are also average.

Then, the Taoist pointed at Qiu Yan and asked, "Where did you catch this man?"

"This man appeared outside the forest by himself and was brought in by his disciples. Before he could be questioned, he might have gotten lost in some caravan." Senior Brother Zhang returned the report with his hand in hand.

"You appeared outside the forest?" The Taoist narrowed his eyes and took a deep look at Qiu Yan. A cold light flashed in his eyes, "This is strange."

After saying this, he shook his head and laughed: "However, what this person asked just now is really funny."

"Funny?" Qiu Yan asked back.

"That's right," the Taoist nodded, "If nothing else, I'm a poor Taoist who is giving a lecture, and you suddenly interrupt with words, which is disrespectful. It shows your bad character, judging from your appearance. You are also a student of sages, and you do such a thing. Isn't it funny? But it's no wonder, this is not your fault alone, but the fault of the entire Central Plains ethnic group..."

"What a good turn..." Qiu Yan shook his head, ignoring the angry looks of the people next to him, and walked towards the stage, "A little thing, a fragment, is immediately given a name and magnified to the entire Central Plains." That mouth is really powerful, but what impressed Qiu even more is that you easily dodged my inquiry, which shows that you have experienced many battles..."

As it gets closer. Qiu Yan's eyelids twitched slightly, catching some familiar fluctuations of thoughts from the other party, but he remained calm and just asked: "Taoist Master, you don't have to think about him, just tell me that you instigated others to start an army. How come you, the founder, can live here?"

"Too rude, everyone..." The Taoist did not answer, but instead shouted to everyone in the audience, "You have also seen that the age of this poor Taoist is here. This junior is also a scholar in the Central Plains, but he is not the least bit... Disrespecting the elders! Why is this so? It’s because he was tainted by the big dye vat of the Central Plains. At the beginning, human nature is a blank slate. Why are the prairie warriors so brave and fearless? Just like us Central Plains people. Are you so cowardly that you don’t even dare to kill with your sword in the face of the enemy?”

The more he talked, the more excited he became. The veins on his rosy face were actually exposed!

"This is all caused by the distortion of the order advocated by the masters of the Central Plains! All of this is the fault of our forefathers and ancestors! The only solution for now is to introduce the blood of the grassland, irrigate the Central Plains, and reconstruct it with the bravery of the grassland In heaven, I can only live like a human being!"

"You have also stayed in the Holy Ministry of Rouluo for a while. You should know that the grassland people are not like us. They can eat meat and drink milk without hard work! How did these grains and wealth come from? Don't you have to rely on them? Be brave! As long as you pick up the sword, there is nothing in the world that cannot be achieved. Everyone, we must have the blood of the grassland to water the Central Plains, so that we and the Central Plains people can truly stand upright, be the masters, and live a good life..."

But unexpectedly, Qiu Yan's voice came from the side again, interrupting the Taoist's passionate words again——

"It turns out that grabbing a knife is such a noble thing?"

The words are not high-pitched, but have an unspeakable penetrating power. Even if others don't want to listen, it is difficult to isolate them.

The Taoist's words stopped abruptly, he turned around to look again and smiled slightly: "You junior, what do you know? I have eaten more salt than you have eaten, and I have walked more bridges than you have walked. Sir, how can you compare to me in knowledge? You don’t know how to advance or retreat, why do you still want to argue with me? How can I lower myself to be as knowledgeable as you?”

"You are such an unreasonable person. When I ask you a question, you don't answer a word. You just use other things to pass it over or skip it." Qiu Yan walked to the front and suddenly whispered, "Is it possible that the Zongheng family only knows how to use it now?" Are you using your experience and qualifications to prove yourself with your overwhelming momentum?"

"What did you say?" When the man heard the words, his eyes suddenly glared, showing murderous intent, but he quickly calmed down, "Young man, think twice before speaking, be careful of the misfortune that comes from your mouth."

"What kind of disaster?" Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes. The familiar aura he felt just now was similar to the Zhang Qin he met in the world of Shilin, so he spoke to test him. Seeing this, he already knew something, so he changed the subject: " Taoist priest, I’ll ask you one more question. If you still don’t want to answer, that’s fine. But I’m afraid all of you here may have doubts.”

The Taoist was silent for a moment, and then asked: "What do you want to ask?" There was a change in his eyes when he looked at Qiu Yan. The Taoist immortality on his body was a little lighter, and he secretly winked at several disciples, and there was The disciple quietly stepped forward.

Qiu Yan seemed unaware and just asked: "You said that the Central Plains is not as good as the grassland because of the strength of the military. Then let me ask you, does the lack of military courage mean that the country is inferior?"

"Of course." The Taoist nodded.

Qiu Yan also nodded and said, "If there is a country where its people are happy and prosperous, but its culture is not as ferocious as its neighboring countries, does that mean that this country is too inferior and should be watered with the blood of neighboring countries?"

"Huh?" The Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then sneered, "Don't try to be tricky. I didn't say that bravery is everything, but I said that the Central Plains court was acting in the opposite direction. Therefore, the armaments were depleted and the battle was invincible. If the Great Khan and the Four Corners were set up like Rou Luo, Fang Wei Dao!”

Qiu Yan asked again: "The Taoist Master is so hostile to the Central Plains, and he himself is from the Central Plains. He wants to use the method of the four corners of the grassland to impose the Central Plains. I wonder if he is angry with the Central Plains, or has some other purpose?"

The so-called Four Corners of the Great Khan refers to the tribal structure of Rouluo. The customs, geography, environment, and humanities of the grassland and the Central Plains are different. In order to adapt to their respective development, the Central Plains established centralized power, while the grassland has many tribes and harsh conditions. There was no fixed location and poor communication, so in addition to the Great Khan, there were also King Zuoxian, King Zuoguli, King Youxian, and King Youguli living in the four directions, commanding various ministries, and they were called the Four Corners.

The Taoist glanced at the people in the audience and said righteously: "It's for the hundreds of millions of people!"

Qiu Yan asked: "If the Great Khan and the Four Corners are established, but the country is in turmoil, then what? In order to establish the Four Corners, will we not hesitate to disturb the world and stain the country with blood?"

"For the sake of future generations, what's the point of a little sacrifice?" The Taoist had a little sweat on his forehead and frequently winked at his disciples.

But Qiu Yan refused to give up and continued to ask: "How do you know that if you implement this method, your descendants can enjoy peace? If tranquility is overthrown, only a few will benefit, and those who will be sacrificed are not those of you who planned it. Using the blood of others , watering one's own throne, but talking about it for future generations, isn't it hypocritical and close to the devil? "

Veins were visible on the Taoist's forehead: "You are following the old ways! That's right, you have been confused by the classics and books, lost your clarity, and lost your own opinions! Look at the Rouluo Holy Ministry, which uses four corners to form a court, without the need to cultivate the land, it is still possible Eat meat every meal..."

"Shut up! Stop misleading people with your words! No one is working, and even if you go to rob, you won't be able to rob anything! Which country is strong and which country is weak does not depend on words, but your words are bullying others. If you know your limitations and use your body to deceive your mind, your mind will be punished!"

Qiu Yan suddenly raised his voice!

“I only saw Rouluo people eating meat, but I didn’t see the madness of burning, killing and looting, the hardships of grazing, fishing and hunting, the suffering of lack of food and clothing, the helplessness of winter and summer migration, and the degradation of tribes during the conquests. The misery of slaves! What’s the point of insisting on eating meat? In my opinion, it’s not that you don’t know this, but you don’t want to say it!”

The contrast between the strengths and weaknesses of Darui and Rouluo is obvious to those who have a comprehensive view of the overall situation. However, ordinary people are limited by information and do not know the comprehensive comparison between the two countries. They are inevitably confused by one-sided words and even generalize to the powerful. It is not surprising to regard a scattered country as a weak country and regard it as the overlord.

It is not uncommon for a few things to be spread out with just one mouth, and to reverse the cause and effect.

In this world, there is no Internet or TV to compare national strength every day. Ordinary people even have to copy books by themselves. How can we comprehensively compare two countries? As soon as someone incites you and your emotions rise, you immediately believe it.

Even in Qiu Yan's previous life, thousands of people still had to use tools and channels to understand everything, but as long as there were intermediate links, information could be manipulated.

As he spoke, Qiu Yan came closer and closer, and his momentum gradually increased, causing the Taoist to retreat subconsciously. Everyone listening to his lecture also had different expressions, and was surprised and confused.

"Whether it's martial arts or four corners, it's worthless. It's all humane means. It's good if it can benefit the people." Qiu Yan pressed forward step by step, striding over, "But when it comes to your mouth, it's simply more humane." Order still needs aura, as if it can be used to eliminate all diseases! Let me ask you again, why does Rouluo, who has a great sweat, rely on plundering and plundering grain to survive the winter? Who is it that he needs to conquer and enslave other tribes to become strong? Not as good as who?"

As he talked, Qiu Yan's thoughts gradually became clearer, and the problems that had troubled him for a long time suddenly became clear, and a sentence came to his mind -

"That's right! No matter the emperor, the Great Khan, or even the imperial court or royal court, they have no value in themselves, and the humane order that exists alone has no value either! Only when it is applied to humanity and changes the lives of all people, can it have value! The foundation of humanity is still in people!"

"Regarding status, system, and order as valuable things, worshiping them, and treating them as gold is like a farmer who regards hoes and sickles as truth. Do farmers, by pursuing hoes, If you get a sickle, you no longer have to work, and you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Why not just buy a plowing ox?"

The little respect for order slowly dissipated. Qiu Yan arrived in front of the stone platform. Senior Brother Zhang and others finally took action. The Taoist just looked at them. They should have stepped forward long ago, but they were overwhelmed by Qiu Yan's momentum!
