...

That is actually not a very innovative story, and it can even be said to be old-fashioned.

A huge empire, an unprecedented catastrophe, countless crises broke out from inside and outside, the wise and mighty king was pierced through the chest by the sharp knife behind him.

After hearing the bad news, the sage who was hiding in the church fished and chanted scriptures took out the giant sword under the cabinet, and chopped all the rebels besieging the capital like melons and vegetables, and then took it. The former seat became the new leader.

However, the protagonist of the stock market this time is not the sage who became the new king, but a disciple accepted by the sage when he was fishing.

Just like the protagonists in most of the novels, this sage’s disciple comes from a humble background and comes from a remote area of ​​the country. The sage met him by accident when he was passing through his hometown. After a simple assessment, he felt that It is a material that can be made, so I bring it with me.

The disciple didn't know the identity of the sage at first. The sage didn't tell him about himself because he thought it was troublesome or simply wanted to play. Most of the time in the next day is spent dealing with some rather strange things in the eyes of disciples.

I don't care about officials and rich people, and I always hang out among the ordinary people to listen to what they say, and I will record it in a small notebook...

I don’t like to take transportation, because I have to look at the environment on the road and listen to what people on the side of the road are saying, and I seldom go to high-end restaurants and the like. I always hang out in those run-down places and eat locals. Those strange foods that are difficult to swallow, saying to understand what...

The disciple was very puzzled by this, and even thought his teacher was mentally ill.

Let the high-ranking officials and rich people ignore you, don’t build your own network to climb up, but hang out with a group of mud legs here, obviously you are not short of money at all, and the meals you cook with your own hands are also delicious, but you insist on To embarrass yourself to eat those messy things...

Isn't this sick?

And he was not the only one who thought so. Later, the sage picked up a few more children on the road. Everyone basically thought so. After discussing it, everyone was surprised to find that he was not the only one who thought so.

But what's strange is that although they all thought that their teacher was mentally ill, none of them disliked him or proposed to leave him, and they didn't even ask him why he did these things, as if as long as he existed, all he did It must be correct.

Moreover, the sage at that time had a very good personality. It may be that he finally relieved the burden on his shoulders. They can all be handled with a smile, and they are also quite gentle and considerate to the children-of course, after making a mistake, it will be another story.

Then time passed, the children of that year grew up gradually, and the sage also ended his journey, preparing to go back for research with the manuscripts stored in the space module that could almost fill a room.

Before going back, the sage called the disciples together and solved the doubts that had been buried in their hearts all the way for them.

"Teacher, why don't you talk to those big men, instead hang out with those ordinary people? If you want to change this country and the world, shouldn't you keep getting stronger and try your best to climb to the top? This is the best way to change Everything."

"What you said makes sense." The sage nodded, and then changed the topic: "However, your thinking is still a little simple. Change and transformation are not so easy to do, especially when you just when you are alone..."

The sage paused, and continued: "And in the final analysis, those 'upper class' and 'rich people' are only a minority, and they are a very small minority, and the 'mud legs' you call are the majority of the rest... "

"But they have neither strength nor wisdom." One of the disciples frowned: "No matter how many people there are, they are just the material of chaos and corruption. The civilians of a planet are not as useful as an Astarte."

"Indeed." Unexpectedly, the sage nodded: "I will not deny what you said, because they are indeed weak and powerless, and because of insufficient education, lack of knowledge reserves, they are not good at thinking and planning. Very good at it, and it is said that there are many ignorant and selfish people mixed in it..."

"But they could have been better."

Then, under the dull eyes of many disciples, the smiling sage uttered words that could be called "heresy" in any place in the empire—he was actually complaining about the man who was in the heart of the empire. Flawless, the spiritual pillar of the empire and the king of faith.

"What's wrong with that old man? He has to believe in human nature. He really thinks that everyone is like a dragon. Anyone who is pulled out from the street is a saint who is willing to die for the public and the people? What are the cubs under his hands like? Doesn't he know what he is like?"

"He clearly knows that in this world, idealistic things like belief can be transformed into real power. As a result, not only does he not use this power, but he also thinks about how to eradicate religion and promote materialism... He really feels like an empire It's the truth."

"Oh, sorry, he really is."

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things, let's talk about civilians."

"Of course civilians have power. Isn't Astera also transformed by ordinary people? If supplemented with correct education and spiritual guidance, they can also become better and exert more power to fight against foreign enemies. It can become a source of faith power, and it can also reduce the possibility of being corrupted by chaos."

"It is true that the empire is still lacking in this aspect, but the old man can't be blamed for it. After all, the war outside is enough for him to have a headache, and there is no time to deal with these trivial matters inside."

"But some things have to be handled by someone. External enemies have to be fought, and internal problems have to be dealt with. Only such a country can be called sound... Don't interrupt the system, why are you talking so strangely?"

"So here I am."

"As for me, teacher, I'm actually at the top of the empire, and I'm very familiar with that old man...don't look at me like that, I'm telling the truth."

"The handling of civilian issues, how to improve the current internal governance of the empire, mobilize this huge power that has been neglected, so that ordinary people can also step on the stage full of 'heroes' and 'warriors', and display their own light and heat, this That's what I'm here for."

"But it's not an easy task, let alone sitting in an office chair and thinking about it."

"You will understand in the future that if you have been in a high position for a long time, you can't see the scenery below the mountain clearly. No matter how detailed and accurate the information you receive in your hands, no matter how concerned you are about the country and the people, as long as you stay on top After a long time, disconnected from the people below for a long time, no matter how detailed the information is, the wrong information can be deciphered, and no matter how good the heart is, no right thing can be done.”

"I told you the story of why you don't eat minced meat before, and you listened to it as a joke at the time, but you should know that this kind of thing is actually not uncommon, and it still happens again and again, it's just a show In a different way, it's not as ridiculous ... but it's there."

"If you don't get a deep understanding, don't conduct investigations, and don't understand the specific situation, just make a few blind decisions based on the data in hand and the casual words of the people above, so sooner or later there will be problems, and they will be big problems."

"So here I am."

"Communicating with them is to understand their thoughts and cognitions, eating those foods and walking is to experience their lives, and those strange behaviors in your eyes are similar..."

"If you want to really mobilize them, let them receive education and reform, you must first understand what they are thinking, why they think so, and the material reasons behind this, as well as the layers of power intertwined on top of the material reasons..."

"People don't know anything when they are born, but they can shape their character, improve their thinking level, and expand their horizons through acquired education...just like you are now."

"But I am not referring to the Star Militia Army or other mortal armies here, but including them, including all those you have seen before."

"Farmers, workers, cooks, people who breathe fresh air on the surface, people who are crowded in their nests, even punks who threaten others by the roadside and 'rats' lying in the gutter..."

"They are all human beings. Even if they are not fighting on the front line, they can still contribute to the war, and they can be great."

"On the stage of the story, there should not only be protagonists and supporting roles, nor should there be only demon kings or brave men, there should also be those unknown people, because they built this stage, and they should be able to dance with others on their own stage. s right."

"Do you understand?"

Of course the disciples understood. After all, they were all seedlings picked out by him, and after a certain degree of training, it was not difficult to understand his words.

But what the disciples didn't expect was that understanding this passage was only the beginning.

After the sage returned to the royal city, he led his disciples to reorganize the manuscripts he wrote down along the way, compiled them into teaching materials, and then asked his disciples to bring their own teaching materials to those big figures who had been considered unattainable in their eyes. Attend class'.
