The first volume of Odd Jobs Against the Sky convinces people with virtue
The Wood Spirit is the weakness of the Tree People, and the Wood Spirit wants to do something, the Tree Man can't stop it. Despite the sadness of the scene, things did go smoothly.
A peace agreement between the Treants and the Terrans was signed, and the Treants will cooperate with the humans, and they will stay on the island to wait for He Peng's order to go to any corner of the earth at any time to engage in great greening work. And He Peng repeatedly promised that he would water and fertilize the wood spirit well......
Leaving the Tree Man Island, He Peng had an extra pot of flowers in his arms, and the Wood Spirit turned himself into a small sunflower, and the whole word was full of vigorous greenery, which made people's mood rise by several levels.
The Al beast broke through the waves, and He Peng stood on its head holding the flower.
"Al, why don't you speak. ”
"I was depressed, I thought it was a good way to give up violence and convince people with virtue, but it almost turned out to be tragic, and in the end I still had to rely on violence, I was so frustrated. ”
He Peng didn't speak, the sun was very good at this time, and the mist splashed by the Al beast formed a colorful light, He Peng was a little distracted, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You must be very proud that you are right, and that violence is the best way to use violence against these prehistoric civilizations. ”
"No, I'm against violence. ”
Al Beast was in a worse mood, he made a bet with He Peng, He Peng advocated using violence to improve the efficiency of the contract, the Al Beast patriarch must convince people with virtue in order to deal with things better, and the first battle of Shuren completely shattered the ideal of convincing people with virtue, so he felt that He Peng was ridiculing him, although it was their right for the winner to mock the loser, and the loser was not qualified to refute it, but ...... I feel so uncomfortable!
The alder flicked his tail aggrievedly and deliberately made a splash.
He Peng smiled, still standing firmly on the head of the Al Beast.
Al Beast finally couldn't help but said: "Hey, don't be too complacent, when it comes to using violence, my previous title was Al Beast, I'm very good at using violence!"
Who knew that He Peng said: "You won, I admit that it is not good to use violence, and you must convince people with virtue." ”
Albeast angrily spewed out a large splash of water, and a winner said that the loser won, isn't this a sarcasm? Albeast decided to give He Peng some good looks, and let him know that Albeast's violent methods are not bad at all!
The Al Beast suddenly jumped dozens of meters out of the water, its huge body flipped over, and its head rushed down and smashed into the water.
He Peng was standing on his head, if he smashed it, it would be equivalent to the huge body of the Al Beast smashing on He Peng's body, although it couldn't hurt He Peng, but it could make He Peng ugly.
He Peng let the Al Beast Hu come, he just walked leisurely on the Al Beast, and he always kept standing in a positive direction, when the Al Beast's belly was facing the sea, He Peng stood on the head of the Al Beast, and when the back of the Al Beast was facing the sea, He Peng stood on the chin of the Al Beast.
The Al Beast was helpless against the dexterous He Peng, but it still rushed violently from a high altitude to the sea, and the huge impact of his heart can always embarrass you.
Just a moment before the head of the Albeast crocodile was about to be like water, he suddenly heard He Peng muttering a word in his ear: nothingness.
Then I heard a loud crack, and the sky swirled......
When the Al beast recovered from its dizziness, he found himself lying on a large block of ice, He Peng was sitting with his back to him and fishing on the edge of the ice cube in front of him, and the pot of sunflowers was placed beside him and shone in the sun.
"Oh my God, what's the matter, the tropical oceans, where did the ice come from? Is the Antarctic ice sheet melting?" asked the Al Beast, shaking its still somewhat confused head.
He Peng didn't look back, and said: "I conjured this ice, help you understand what violence can't solve the problem, and you must convince people with virtue." ”
The Al Beast covered his eyes with his claws, feeling extremely helpless, He Peng is simply bullying a fierce beast, is there such a way to teach people to convince people with virtue? This is even more than countering violence with violence, this big ice cube, that is, his skin and flesh are thick and his defense is strong.
Al Beast said helplessly: "Okay, okay boss, you have the final say, I admit that violence is very effective, I will never mention convincing people with virtue in the future, let's fight all the way wherever we go, all the subdued, anyway, I haven't bullied people for a long time, I miss it very much!"
He Peng said in a tone: "I didn't ridicule you, I discussed with you very seriously, I really think what you said is right, and it is right to convince people with virtue!"
"You come back, you subdued me violently with one ice cube strike, don't humiliate me, I sincerely admit the effect of violence. ”
He Peng handed the fishing rod to the pot of flowers, and the flowers stretched out a thin vine and wrapped the fishing rod.
He Peng turned around and walked to the eyes of the Al Beast, tapped the ice with his foot, and said, "You think this is violence?"
Al Beast asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?"
"Yes, I don't think so, I think that's virtue!"
"Are you kidding? uh...... You're funny and serious...... What the hell do you mean?"
He Peng said: "What is virtue?"
"Virtue, you still need to ask, of course, morality, great ideas, truth, goodness and beauty!"
He Peng said with a smile: "No, virtue is a kind of power, a restraining force, the power that will punish you if you don't obey others, which is essentially the same as law and violence, but this power pays more attention to ideological deterrence, and the deterrence is very obscure, and it is an invisible force for the purpose of the good development of the order of the whole group!"
"Uh...... Your understanding...... It's weird, but it seems to make sense. ”
He Peng said with a smile: "There is no virtue in the world, intelligent beings have morality because they are afraid of the destruction of the group order, just like this piece of ice, I put it in front of you, if you go on a rampage, your head hurts, and you won't bump." ”
The alman touched his head with his claws, his eyes a little puzzled and a little afraid. He said, "Doesn't morality become violence?"
He Peng smiled and said: "It's different, violence is to use force to subdue the other party, and morality is that if you don't offend him, he won't beat you, on the contrary, he is maintaining a good order for you and the group, so convincing people with virtue is not violence to hurt people, but putting the prospect of good order and the punishment of destroying order in front of you at the same time, good order is a carrot to lure you to abide by morality, and punishment is a big stick to force you to abide by morality." ”
Albeast was stunned and shook his head: "You mean, to convince people with virtue is to force people to eat carrots with a big stick?"
He Peng shook his head and nodded, and said: "Not all right, but almost, the battle of Tree Man Island made me understand a truth, sometimes violence cannot make people succumb from the heart, and it is only a matter of time before they fight, just like I can't use death to force the tree people to accept the agreement, they will fight to the death with me for the sake of the wood spirit." But when I gave them a good prospect and showed that if they didn't follow the agreement, they would be beaten and lose everything, including the Wood Spirit, they compromised.
Therefore, to convince people with virtue is to show them the beautiful future that can be obtained by obeying the agreement, and at the same time to show that I have the power to destroy everything if I disobey the agreement! ”
Al Beast exclaimed, "This is sophistry!"
"It's true!"
"You're a bully!"
"Who says morality isn't bullying?"
"Uh......"
He Peng smiled and asked rhetorically: "Then what do you think morality is? Is it just truth, goodness and beauty?"
Albeast nodded and said: "The beauty in my heart is morality! Don't bully the weak by force, help each other, and develop together." ”
He Peng said: "When you are a strong person, you can not bully the weak and call it morality, but when you are a weak person, what qualifications do you have to make the strong not bully you, and what qualifications do you have to make the strong abide by morality? To put it bluntly, morality is the order and rule designated by the strong and maintained by the strong group strength. ”
Albeast rolled her eyes, looking like you couldn't convince me.
He Peng smiled: "For example, you are a strong person compared to those small fish in the ocean, you eat a lot of fish every day in order to fill your belly, but what you do is cruel and immoral for fish, is the fish qualified to negotiate with you, so that you will not eat fish in the future?"
Albeast stared at him for a long time before he muttered, "It's a big deal not to eat fish." ”
He Peng said with a smile: "Then starve to death, should you still eat cows, sheep, or plants? Could it be that cows, sheep and plants are willing to be eaten by you, won't they think you are cruel and immoral?"
Arman: "Uh......"
He Peng patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "So, in the future, I will show them my strength and show the beautiful future I want to build, and everyone will be happy if they abide by the agreement they have made with me, and if they don't obey, they will hit the ice cube I stand in front of them!"
The Al Beast smashed its mouth and lay on the ice weakly......
The sun flower swayed in the sun, and a trace of fluctuation was transmitted to He Peng and Al Beast's minds: "What the master said is right, that's what I did with the Tree Race, follow me and have a bright future, and if you disobey me, you will be punished, you see, more than a billion years have passed, the Tree People are in good order, everyone loves each other, and they all cried when I left." ”
Albeast blew angrily, blowing the leaves of the sunflower messily, and he roared, "You are violence, coercion, not morality!"
Sunflower giggled, and then said, "How so? Violence is premised on individual desires and hatred, morality is premised on a good group future, and threats of force are only punishments, and fundamentally, the tree people follow my rules not because I use violence, but because I represent a better future." ”
He Peng smiled: "Yes, I give them a bright future, but if they don't follow the rules, they will be punished violently, this is my virtue to convince people!"
The beast's head was completely confused, but the huge heart in his body felt that what He Peng said was right......
