    Chapter 1783 Life, Man and God


    Maybe there are many things, like "Theory of the Five Virtues from the Beginning", or "Theory of the Induction of Heaven and Man". In fact, the creator didn''t think much about it at the beginning. He just thought it could be used and put it to use. I used it, but I didn’t expect that it would be difficult to end after using it, or even have a far-reaching impact.


    Just like when he had a big beard, he did not expect that his doing so would also cause panic in the entire society. When the mustache invaded, many generals and marshals were submissive and did not even dare to do anything without the exact order of the headquarters. , so that the mustache can easily wear through three, killing super gods.


    ??The new Taoism that Fei Qian and Zuo Ci have now figured out is to make up for the big holes left by these predecessors. Although it may not be able to completely make up for it, it can at least be perfected as much as possible.


    This pit is called monopoly.


    When an industry or a society has a monopoly, it is a very scary thing.


    ?Perhaps some people think that natural monopolies will not arise in a market economy environment, and even think that naturally occurring monopolies are harmless...


    ?Of course, if a monopoly enterprise is obtained through public power, the monopoly class will be more terrifying, but this does not mean that the monopoly class after natural competition is good.


    No matter how flawless the entire process and methods are when the monopoly class obtains a monopoly position, even if it completely relies on the natural market and relies on self-strength to grow, after sitting on the monopoly position, it must instinctively Will use various rights to cause huge harm.


    Especially the combination of capital and rights.


    ?The reason why monopolies are not easily broken down naturally is because monopoly companies have established a series of barriers to themselves in terms of technology patents, scale, and talent.


    The ultimate goal of capital pursuit is monopoly. In the absence of market intervention, all industries have a natural tendency to monopolize. This is inevitable and the only way for capital development. The harm of monopoly is not at all trivial matters such as raising product prices and lowering service quality after obtaining a monopoly. Rather, it will begin to spread throughout the country and even the world after obtaining a monopoly. own influence, and then control the government and influence the development of the entire world.


    When the entire country’s economic activities are firmly controlled by a private company, this is the advanced form of a monopoly company and the ultimate dream of these monopoly companies.


    In the Han Dynasty, the princes from all over the country were like enterprises in the market of Han Dynasty. Everyone wanted to become a monopoly in this market. This was everyone''s pursuit, whether they realized it or not, they all did it. .


    Including Feiqian.


    ???If Fei Qian said that he quit working now and wanted to go home to take care of the child, do you believe that there would be a group of people crying and shouting on the spot, and they would crash to death in front of the hall? He even has a desire to replace him and won''t stop until Fei Qian is killed?


    This is interest, and this is also human nature.


    This is true not only for princes and emperors, but also for the previous Confucians, Taoists, Legalists, etc.


    ?These people spontaneously pursue a monopoly position, and after seizing the position, they begin to control talents and establish technical barriers. On the other hand, they continue to suppress competitors and even force them to leave the market.


    By controlling land, local tyrants formed monopolies, oppressed and exploited farmers, and were extremely eager to expand the size of their land, even across the country. Therefore, they would be sad during good harvests and inexplicably excited during disaster years, because the owner-cultivators only had Only when a disaster occurs do they have to sell their own acres.


    The noble families used scriptures to monopolize officialdom, set up wide moats, attract talents to form barriers, and even **** with power to suppress competitors, regardless of whether what the opponents did was right or wrong.


    ?So since the human heart and human nature are like this, is it completely unchangeable? Uncontrollable?


    It is not.


    The simplest four words, "Whoever kills will die."


    This is the final bottom line, and it is also the basis for the normal operation of the entire human society. If someone can kill people without rules and restrictions, then the entire society will eventually collapse. This is true whether it is a feudal dynasty or any other form of society.


    Based on the principle of "whoever kills shall die", the basic social rules extended are the laws.


    Before Feiqian, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, these Taoists, Confucians, Legalists, etc. did not have any laws to regulate them, which meant that they could do whatever they wanted. Zhou Li collapsed, and various countries The systems of each country are different. As a result, these people do not have to abide by anything. They can even claim the scriptures written by others as their own. If they feel that their opponents are too strong, they can simply find a way to physically eliminate them, even if they are the opponents. Even if you leave the show, you still have to give up a thousand miles...


    What is very interesting is that these people themselves know that doing so often has no good consequences, but they feel that it is impossible not to do it, so they grit their teeth and do it, even more vicious and cruel. This is also the case for many people in power in feudal dynasties The reason why you must hold onto your authority tightly and not give up until the moment you die.


    Now, the rules set by Fei Qian for Confucianism are enlightenment.


    Education without monopoly.


    The students in the Academy either enter the officialdom through the examination room or enter the officialdom through the education envoy. The only position that does not require examinations and only relies on scripture attainments without other abilities is the Doctor of Academy.


    In addition to the Great Treatise on Qinglong Temple, through Sima Hui, Zheng Xuan and others, he put forward the theory of "seeking truth and seeking correctness", once again standardizing the specific scope of Confucian scriptures, the rules for citation and extension, and at the same time distributing free scriptures and teaching sentence reading methods, allowing Confucianists to Back to basics…


    Of course, as time goes by, these rules will always undergo various changes, some of which may be due to the evolution of the times, and some may be due to artificial additions or destructions, but since everyone in the entire Han Dynasty is to form a joint force, then It is impossible for one party to expand its strength too much and unscrupulously embezzle the interests of others. Therefore, the establishment of some necessary rules and regulations is also something that Sima Hui, Zheng Xuan, and even Pang De in Jingxiang agree on at the moment.


    ?So now, it’s Taoism’s turn.


    Taoism is even more interesting.


    Taoism has everything. Even the matter of giving birth to children is openly claimed to have some methods. It is precisely for this reason that it is difficult to deal with Buddhism, which claims to have rhythm on the surface, but in fact still secretly gives birth to children.


    Since everything is there and nothing is clear, there is at least one thing that Taoism needs to do better and even become Taoism’s specialty, which is the matter of religion itself.


    Sometimes Fei Qian also finds it a bit unbelievable that a local religious enterprise that has been developing freely for at least four to five hundred years can''t defeat a foreign enterprise that only had two or three big cats and kittens at first. This should be said that the corporate culture of foreign enterprises is too perfect. , or is it that the management of these local religious companies are too liberal and unorganized?


    Could it be that things like refining elixirs and giving birth to children have completely ruined the reputation of Taoism?


    Taoism is like a huge enterprise. As a result, there are too many investment projects, and these projects are basically operated at a loss. In the end, it will naturally fail, and it cannot even maintain its old business.


    So now, Taoists and Chenwei mainstream people are sitting together and working together to establish a new marketing model.


    "The gods of the five directions use Qi as their survival and virtue as their foundation..." Yun Yi said slowly, "The five virtues end and begin like this." Things are mixed, heaven and earth are born, Yuan Qi evolves, the five directions gather together, and the five elements are inherent to give birth to the five emperors. This is the principle of yin and yang and the way of doing things. 』


    Zhongjie and Wei Duan looked at each other and nodded, accepting Yun Yi''s words. Because this explanation makes sense logically and is in line with the current understanding of ordinary people in the Han Dynasty. The five elements correspond to the five emperors, and everything in the world is within the five elements. Adding the changes of yin and yang, it is a relatively complete religious worldview. There are no mistakes in the basic plan. The next step is to establish a structure on the basic plan to change the original version 1.01 of the violent "Theory of the End of the Five Virtues" and the somewhat buggy version 4.04 of the "Theory of Induction of Heaven and Man"...


    “Qi is the innate spirit, which is carried by all things when it is born, and disperses in the long run. When Qi is exhausted, it will perish..."


    ?Yunyi continued to add the second article of the New Taoist Rules.


    This explains the birth, aging, sickness and death of human beings and other living beings. Some are sick, some are not sick, some die young, and some die late. The reasons are simple, easy to understand and straightforward.


    ?The other three thought for a moment and nodded in approval.


    "The innate Qi each has a certain number, but the virtues make up for it..."


    Article 3.


    The basic theory of goodness in religion. Of course, it is inevitable that things like "tonic" and "blood-sucking" will evolve as a result. However, generally speaking, advising believers to do good deeds and accumulate virtue is the most important thing for a religion to survive, otherwise sooner or later it will Something went wrong.


    "Innate Qi, acquired virtue..." Qiao murmured a little thoughtfully and repeated.


    ?Yun Yi nodded.


    Originally, Taoism also had the theory of innate nature and acquired nature, as well as the theory of one qi transforming into the three pure states, etc., but it was relatively vague and could not be standardized in detail. There was no unified statement, and the idea of ??"the Tao can be Tao but not Tao" is confusing to people. Here, it is not conducive to the promotion of religion.


    If religion wants to be promoted, it must be simple and direct. A system that is too complex is actually not conducive to copying and pasting.


    ?If we adopt the new Taoist theory, then the innate "qi" is the different starting point of each person. As for the growth path, it depends on the "virtue" accumulated in the day after tomorrow. This kind of statement can not only meet the needs of noble families, but also adapt to the spiritual desires of ordinary people.


    ??New Taoism even has a certain role in paralyzing stability and eliminating social class contradictions. After all, it is still a feudal society, and productivity and production technology cannot provide the soil for a new social model, so exploitation and being exploited are still the themes among the entire feudal social class.


    “Virtue can only be sought through the Tao. If the Tao is established, virtue will be gathered. If virtue is gathered, it will be transformed into Qi. This is good luck..." Yun Yi finally said.


    This is also the final conclusion and the foundation for the survival of New Taoism. "Qi" and "De" are both invisible and intangible things. Only the so-called "Tao" is something that can be followed and done in daily life. Therefore, all divergent nothingness finally falls into specific practical matters. Above, "Tao".


    "So..." Zhongjie pondered, "Everyone in the world can practice Taoism?" 』


    lived! ” Yun Yi nodded.


    Qiao Bing suddenly said: "Everyone in the world is righteous, and a country has its own virtues!" If the five virtues are strong, the world will last forever! 』


    This is an improvement of "The Theory of the End and Beginning of the Five Virtues"!


    It is also a change of the "theory of induction from heaven and man"!


    The previous "Five Virtues" and "Heavenly Beings" seemed to be given away for free at a big sale. They were arranged by God and destined by fate. They were just like those who had to give them back if they didn''t want them. So Liu Bang''s If you raise a second-rate son, you will become the son of the Red Emperor, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will become the son of the Emperor of Heaven...


    Right?


    ?Perhaps you can decide many things in your life, but you really don’t have to decide who you are. It was determined this way when we were born. Maybe I was confused, but it was definitely not my choice.


    The problem with the "Five Virtues" is that if the next "Virtue" is determined, then whether it is through plunder or deception, as long as the previous "Virtue" is defeated by any means, or in other words, when oneself climb up, then oneself Regardless of whether it was "virtue" before, it has become "virtue" now, and in the future, some people will use the same way and the same method to deal with themselves...


    It''s like the reincarnation of Chinese feudalism, that''s it.


    The "theory of induction between heaven and man" is even more outrageous. Seeing that the emperors after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty became more and more useless, it may not have been affected by it. The emperor who acts as an agent in the world does something wrong, and God is angry, and disasters occur. It seems to sound good, and it can make the emperor feel awe, but in fact, is the emperor the one who suffers the disaster? No, even the person responsible for the mistake was not the emperor, but the three princes.


    So if something goes wrong, don’t worry, just change to another Sangong.


    When a person, an emperor, does not have to pay any price for his mistakes, will the emperor still maintain a sense of awe and run the country conscientiously?


    Therefore, the emperors of subsequent dynasties were more **** and less shrewd. On the one hand, the founding emperor''s land annexation was not that severe, and on the other hand, he also knew the sufferings of the people, so he was more or less good, but basically it got worse as he went on. Many emperors were successfully raised as pigs by noble families.


    Now, according to the theory of New Taoism, if a person wants to live longer and live better, he must first have good conditions and have more "qi". In other words, the birth conditions must be better, and then he must gather "virtue", that is, he must have To contribute to society, how to gather "virtue" next, you must have "Tao" and know what you do, and most of the "Tao" that can be put on the surface and recognized by society are basically upward and positive .


    In this way, we have a relatively complete moral code structure from top to bottom. As for each person, whether this or that person can find the "Tao", and whether he can persist in doing something that can achieve "virtue" , until the "qi" that changes life is personal ability and self-struggle.


    To put it simply, it is like the onion-tearing master. He is born to tear onions. That is "Qi". However, Amao and Agou are definitely not as good as the onion-tearing master. However, by finding their personal "Tao", they have formed With more "virtue", does it make sense that he will eventually change his original "qi" and stand in a higher position?


    Of course, the matter of cats and dogs is not simple, but this does not prevent the theory of New Taoism from becoming a new religious concept for the entire Han Dynasty. Don''t blame the past life, don''t expect the next life, cultivate the "Tao" in this life, and gather "virtue" "Growing up Qi, isn''t it much better than the rebellious Buddha who was popular in the feudal dynasty, the white lotus cuckold who only made trouble but could not build?"


    Even if we take a step back, regardless of what religion says, if a person works seriously, works hard, and persists in hard work, can he change some of his own class? At least live a better life?


    Wei Duan asked: "So, there are also obscene sacrifices in the three auxiliary places, do they need to be eradicated?" 』


    ?Yun Yi shook his head.


    New Taoism is also a non-monopoly Taoism.


    『The obscene sacrifice in the countryside is the gathering of local Qi people! Live with the Tao and survive with virtue! If Tao disappears, it will be scattered; if virtue is hidden, it will be useless! Yun Yi added, "They are all transformed by Qi, just like heaven transforms all things!" To worship it is to worship the gods of the five directions! No need to go! 』


    You must have a broad mind to have a broad world. In the future, perhaps all the gods in the world can be summarized into this structure. Anyway, all things are born, and Qi naturally changes in its own way. It is not surprising to see what kind of local gods they can become.


    『Wonderful! ” Zhongjie praised, “In this way, General Hussar is definitely a man of virtue! 』


    The other three people responded in unison: "As it should be!" 』
