"The so-called" guarding ordinary people "of the practitioners is no different from those extreme animal protectors'' doting on cats and dogs. It''s not because they are more just, kind and benevolent than others. It''s just because they are selfish."
Li Yao stammered: "selfish? What kind of selfishness? "
"In our empire of human beings, there is a famous sociologist and psychologist, Ma Tianluo, who put forward the theory of people''s five ladder needs. He pointed out that a person''s life-long needs can be divided into five levels, from low to high, which are the needs of physiology, security, emotion, respect and self realization."
Tang Qianhe said, "it''s easy to understand the physiological and safety needs. It''s the instinct of animals to have enough food and clothing to protect themselves from foreign enemies."
"Emotional needs are also easy to understand. People are gregarious. One is always eager to immerse himself in the emotional package of family, friendship, love and so on. As the saying goes, seven emotions and six desires are hard to avoid, even for Luo Jinxian."
"To respect needs, to put it bluntly, is the desire to occupy a certain position in the society, to be recognized, respected and even worshipped by others! If this need is met, people will be full of self-confidence and feel the "value" of their existence
"The need for self realization is the highest level of need, which refers to the realization of personal ideals, aspirations and idealism, the stimulation of personal potential to the limit, and the thorough implementation of one''s own" Dao Xin "!"
"It''s easy to understand master Ma''s" five echelon demand theory "to analyze the actions of the practitioners."
"To protect ordinary people, first of all, can meet the emotional needs of the practitioners, second, can make them get the respect and worship of the public, third, can implement their ideas and expand their moral heart! That is to say, all the three advanced requirements in the "five echelon demand theory" have been met! "
"To put it bluntly, the practitioners guard the common people, and then get the cheers and adoration of the common people; This is the same reason that an ordinary person raises a pet dog, builds a kennel for it, buys dog food for it, even calls it a member of the family, and finally gets its intimacy. "
"Do they particularly like small animals? Of course not. It''s just to satisfy my empty heart! "
"Otherwise, why are there so many people raising cats and dogs, but so few people raising cockroaches and toads? To put it bluntly, cats and dogs are cute and have a little understanding of human nature, which can bring a sense of spiritual satisfaction to ordinary people. Ordinary people will raise cats and dogs; And ordinary people can also bring spiritual satisfaction to the practitioners. They are a kind of senior pets, so the practitioners will protect ordinary people! "
"That, that --"
Li Yao didn''t know how to refute this kind of strange talk for a while.
What''s more, he didn''t dare to show too much resistance, so as not to arouse the doubts of the three immortals, so he had to follow the meaning of Tang Qianhe, "it seems that there''s nothing wrong with that, right?"
"If you just close the door to dote on your pet, of course, it''s personal freedom. There''s nothing wrong with it!"
Tang Qianhe snorted coldly, showing his disdain and disgust, and said, "it''s a pity that the practitioners, like the extreme animal protectionists, like to regard the behavior of satisfying their own selfish desires as the so-called morality, regard their likes and dislikes as the truth of" putting everything in the sea of stars ", and even interfere in the very normal behavior of others!"
"The resources in Xinghai are limited. Raising ordinary people as pets consumes more resources than raising cats and dogs as pets; Ordinary people are far more ferocious than cats and dogs. If they are careless, they will be ungrateful and bite back at any time! "
"Practitioners are shortsighted and extremely selfish. They just start from their own selfishness and instinct. They only see that the ordinary people in front of them and at present seem very poor. They must protect them at all costs to satisfy their compassion. They don''t know that doing so will bring long-term damage, And eventually lead to the total collapse of the entire human civilization! "
Li Yao frowned: "what damage?"
Tang Qianhe said seriously: "our human civilization, like the ecosystem of nature, is actually the strongest and most fragile thing! It is strong because it has some natural laws, which can self regulate and balance, and self purify and evolve under the seemingly cruel laws; The reason why it is fragile is that once human beings, as spirits of all things, have mastered the ability to modify certain laws, and then, driven by self righteous compassion, they really make modifications, the collapse is almost inevitable! "
"Li Daoyou, have you ever heard of" ecological balance "
Li Yao nodded.
"The ecosystem of nature is a very balanced and perfect work of art. Imagine a prairie like this. A small number of jackals, a large number of rabbits and grass all over the mountains make up a simple ecosystem."
"Rabbits eat grass, jackals eat rabbits."
"The rabbit is very cute. It makes people feel pity when they see it."
"The jackal is ferocious in appearance and ferocious in nature. The scene of hunting rabbits is extremely bloody!"
"At first glance, it''s easy to define a rabbit as'' good ''and a jackal as'' bad''!"
"Suddenly one day, some omnipotent people came to this grassland, saw the bloody scene of jackals preying on rabbits, and saw the lovely picture of little rabbits rubbing around in their arms. For a moment, they had the idea of" weeding the strong and supporting the weak ". They killed all the jackals, leaving only the fluffy, fleshy, gentle and lovely little rabbits."
"Excuse me, will this grassland become a fairyland on earth?"
"Of course not!"
"In less than a year, rabbits with super fertility and good at destroying the roots of plants will completely destroy this grassland, and rabbits who have lost their food sources will also die in large numbers and be completely extinct!"
"Do you understand?"
"In this ecosystem, the ferocious looking jackals are the protectors of grass, rabbits and the whole nature; And those who seem to be warm-hearted, weeding out the strong and supporting the weak, are demons, enslaved by self expanding morality, truly demons! "
"Maybe they really came out of good intentions, maybe they fought with jackals for 300 rounds in the process of protecting the rabbit, and paid countless blood and sacrifices..."
"So what? They can''t change the fact that the whole ecosystem is completely destroyed by their "good intentions."
There was a buzz in Li Yao''s mind.
This set of words of the cultivators has been refined for thousands of years. Even if they are unreasonable, at least they seem to be very reasonable.
Tang Qianhe took a deep breath, his face was full of sacred glory, and said: "human civilization, like ecological balance, has its own internal logic of operation and development."
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest, only to maintain a certain degree of cruel competition, to ensure that the best genes get the most abundant resources, passed down from generation to generation; The inferior genes will be eliminated slowly, so as not to waste resources and pollute the environment! "
"It''s just like the metabolism of human civilization. It''s a very normal and reasonable process, survival of the fittest!"
"However, with the development of human civilization, all kinds of new technologies and new powers emerge in endlessly. It seems that we have conquered nature and can ignore the rules and logic! A lot of people are becoming arrogant. Selfish desire replaces reason and tries to "do justice for heaven". Their representatives are modern practitioners! "
"Modern practitioners have conquered all sides, swept away the enemies of human civilization one by one, and created a stable world free from internal and external troubles. They have also developed advanced psionic technology, which has enabled the large-scale popularization of various magic weapons and supernatural powers, greatly improved the living environment of ordinary people, and doubled their life expectancy. As a result, the number of ordinary people, such as volcanic eruptions, has increased, The inferior genes that should have been eliminated by harsh environment have also been passed on! "
"It''s like losing the jackal, the natural enemy, and the rabbit''s unlimited expansion on the grassland!"
"Such a world looks very beautiful, but it is built artificially. A very delicate and fragile glass greenhouse can never last long."
"As long as the number of ordinary people reaches the critical point, their infinite thirst for resources will eventually crush the whole world, and the practitioners immersed in their inferior genes will lose their enterprising spirit, go along with the world, and finally fall into a state of eternal doom. The fire of human civilization in this world will be completely extinguished, just like a wasteland gnawed by rabbits!"
"Don''t think I''m alarmist. In the expansion history of our human Empire, we have found many self destructive world of practitioners. It''s just seeing the miserable situation of these worlds and learning from their experiences and lessons that we are inspired to go further and further on the road of cultivating immortals!"
"When you get back to the base, maybe you can ask Mr. Su to show you the destruction process of the world of those practitioners, and you will understand!"
"In a word, no matter how harmonious, beautiful, prosperous and developed a world of practitioners looks, and how harmonious and united the relationship between practitioners and ordinary people is, it''s all in exchange for overdrawing the future and sacrificing the interests of future generations. It''s just a reflection before death and the last splendor before the end of civilization."
"For people like you who don''t know the truth and have received decades of brainwashing education from the practitioners, some of the actions of our practitioners seem to be cruel, cruel and even cruel at first sight."
"But it''s just like the Jackal preying on the rabbit. It seems that the ferocious thing is necessary for the ecological balance. It''s very good for the whole grassland and even for the long-term continuation of the" rabbit "race!"
Lee took a deep, deep breath.
He felt that he was surrounded by Tang Qianhe.
Of course, Tang Qianhe didn''t have such a theoretical level. He should have been a master of theory among the immortals. He had spent hundreds of years elaborating these words and instilled them into all the citizens of the Empire since he was a child.
Li Yao didn''t want to continue fighting with the enemy in this theoretical battlefield without preparation. He nodded and changed the topic: "I, I seem to understand! But what if I... Eat not ordinary people, but people who cultivate immortals? "
"Ordinary people are just ''original people'', and they are very special advanced animals. If it doesn''t matter, what will happen if they hurt the real kind?"
