Ancient people took poisonous oaths very seriously, and when people had ancestral gods in their hearts, the strength of self-restraint was unimaginable to modern people.

The poisonous oath is not so much to let the gods punish, but to let their own undestroyed humanity to punish, modern people may be difficult to understand this value, but it is undeniable that when the vast majority of people in society believe in this value, the relationship between people is definitely the most harmonious.

When everyone has the final bottom line in their hearts, there will be no all kinds of strange phenomena in this society. When everyone is in awe, at least there will be no poisoned milk powder, Sudan dyes, and gutter oil......

Because people at that time believed that there was a god watching over everyone's head, oppressing people to keep the bottom line of their hearts, so as not to sink into the devil.

Many people may laugh at such superstitious values, but people should not laugh at the social stability and harmony brought about by these values.

Xiao Lotian once said to the people around him that his industrialization will never smash the three sets of Confucian, Taoist and Buddhist people's hearts, and in the process of strong industrialization, if the Chinese lose the last piece of harbor for their hearts, then industrialization will bring the Chinese people into the extremely tragic law of the jungle, and there will be no other than cannibalism.

How can we arm our hands? The answer is natural science and industry.

How do we arm our minds? I'm afraid that the answer will never be solved.

"I, Xiang Shaolong, swear to the sky, everything I say is true, if there is a trace of deception, the sky will hit five thunders......" said Here, Long Ye felt that this poisonous oath was a bit not heavy enough, and then said.

"If there is any deception, let my Xiang family's clan feng shui be cut off from now on, and there will never be a talent...... With such a poisonous oath, the ancestor can rest assured, right?"

The old ancestor had tears in his eyes, and nodded busily, "Okay, good...... I believe it, Master Long, I believe you......" Before he finished speaking, the old ancestor suddenly sweated profusely, and it turned out that the wound was in severe pain again.

"Quick...... Hurry up and burn a bubble for your master, it's already like this, don't get some earth pressure and pain!" Long Ye scolded the disciples and disciples who were kneeling on the ground.

Soil, naturally is the big tobacco soil, this drug that Chinese hate, can still save people at some times, especially for dying patients, has a good analgesic effect.

Sure enough, as soon as the big smoking gun was on, the ancestor's face suddenly improved.

"Ahem, ahem...... Unexpectedly, my ancestor hated tobacco the most, but he also tasted it before leaving...... Poor Dao, Emperor Xian, I have been bullied by this kind of little thing all my life......"

"I didn't expect that I would need his help to relieve the pain until I died, how can this really be reasonable?"

Long Ye smiled slightly, "This is what the literati call the theory of yin and yang, in the mouth of Westerners, this is called the theory of contradiction, everything has two levels: good and bad." Opium can harm people, but opium can also save people at times, for example, wounded soldiers on the battlefield are often painful to death, if there is this powerful analgesic, then the probability of them surviving is much higher......"

"And the foreign guns that you hate the most, Ancestor, it is true that foreign guns can destroy our traditional Chinese martial arts, but think about it from another angle, why don't you use foreign guns to protect our traditional good things?"

The old ancestor's eyes lit up, "Master Long really learned the Great Creation in the East China Sea, where did Prime Minister Xiao Cheng and see the world, you tell me this truth?"

Long Ye's conception of the Chinese Jingwu Gate first came from a promise made by Xiao Letian two years ago, during which Long Ye and Xiao Letian also communicated many times, and finally determined that the founding principle of the Chinese Jingwu Gate was not to compete with others but to protect.

Yes, whether the Chinese martial arts community likes it or not, there is one problem that cannot be avoided, that is, the challenge of the rise of firearms to traditional fighting machines.

A martial artist who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child does not have 20 years of hard work before he wants to enter the house, but what about a musketeer? It will not take two hours of training to kill a master who has practiced martial arts for 20 years.

This is an era of great decline in tradition, and there is no way to avoid it, and if we want to survive, we must recognize the reality and adapt to this fact.

At this point, the Japanese Ryoma Sakamoto did a good job. Ryoma Sakamoto once said to Naoji Higaki, a member of the Tosa Kenwang Party, "In the future, there will be more indiscriminate fights indoors." I like the small knife, the small knife is flexible, and it is more practical than the knife "After a few days, Naoji brought the knife to see Ryoma again, but he took out a pistol" This is more powerful than the knife. ”

Later, after Sakamoto Ryoma worshiped Katsu Kaishu as his teacher, Naoji brought a gun to see Ryoma again, and this time Ryoma took out a copy of the "Public Law of the Nations" "Pistols can only kill and injure the enemy, but this book can revitalize Japan"

Knives, knives, pistols, legal ...... Just from Sakamoto Ryoma's mental journey during this period of study, we can see the great social changes of the Japanese nation after the Black Ship Incident.

"Ancestors, so if we want to make progress, we have to change, keep changing ourselves, how can we make progress without change?"

The old ancestors were stunned, and even the disciples and grandchildren outside were dumbfounded.

"If people are fickle, how will we win the trust of others? I will learn muskets when the muskets are good today, and I will learn the cannons again tomorrow when the cannons are good, there is no end to the changes, but the changes will also bring instability to the people's hearts, what should we do if we change them?" The old ancestor's tone was obviously not so much persistence.

At this time, Long Ye straightened his chest and said proudly: "That's not the case. Confucius said that a gentleman follows the time. Time passes, and social forms change every day. Therefore, conforming to the trend of the times is the way of a gentleman! Ancestors, once you have decided on something, you want to implement it from beginning to end. But by doing so, you will be behind the times in the future. ”

Long Ye is really proud, he never thought that he also had a time to quote the words of the sage, in the past, the green forest masters were synonymous with a group of rude people, and today Long Ye can actually quote the words of the sage to make annotations for his own truth, and he has really gained a lot from seeing him and Xiao Letian in the past few years.

There was a dead silence indoors and outdoors, the ancestors and those disciples and grandchildren looked at Long Ye's head and were about to go out of the aperture, when did the green forest tycoon in western Beijing actually become a talent?

In his mouth, there were not only thoughts on the future of martial arts, but also foreign sights and stories, as well as the background of the times.

After a moment of silence, the old ancestor suddenly laughed, and he couldn't breathe with laughter, "Hahaha...... cough cough cough ...... Happy, happy! People are about to die, but they can break through the confusion and become enlightened, I finally haven't lived in vain!"

"Thank you Master Long for your righteousness, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to go to see Master with a bang...... I'm so stupid, why am I so stupid? Why should I be entangled in who is higher and who is lower in kung fu and foreign guns? Aren't kung fu and foreign guns both a tool, and isn't it our human hearts that manipulate them?"

"Hahaha...... Understood, I understood, I can learn kung fu at the same time, learn foreign guns at the same time, use kung fu when you need to use kung fu, use foreign guns when you need to use foreign guns, can't it be just a tool, why am I so old and confused!"

Enlightened, the old ancestor finally had an epiphany, and in front of him it was like a stabbing sound tearing open a piece of opaque window paper, and a new world appeared in front of him.

"My sons, listen up!" the old ancestor was definitely back to the light, and his face was now ruddy and full of energy.

"Obey the orders of the ancestors!" The disciples and grandchildren crowded the courtyard, and the house was full of people.

"From today on, you must work together to help Long Ye and Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, you must get that Chinese Jingwu Sect up, don't hide your secrets, leave all the good kung fu I taught you, don't cut it off, use your kung fu to change yourself for an official body, and you can change a stable tea and rice for your descendants, this transaction is worth it!"

"You must remember that unless Long Ye and Prime Minister Xiao Cheng want to rebel, you must not be opposed...... I can see that Prime Minister Xiao Cheng is the one who understands, and he is the one who understands the world!"

"Ahem, cough, cough......" The old ancestor coughed violently again, and at this time, a trace of fish belly white had been revealed on the window lattice, and a new day had finally arrived.

"Take me...... Upper roof...... Let me see the sunrise, quick!"

"Master, take a good rest, and wait until your injuries are healed, right?" the apprentices persuaded in a low voice, they knew that the master had the habit of watching the sunrise on the walls of the Forbidden City and practicing martial arts.

Especially on the corner tower on the east side of the Shenwu Gate, it is the most beautiful place to watch the sunrise in the entire Forbidden City, countless sunrise mornings, the ancestor looked at the red sun and breathed, practiced and meditated, listened to the sound of the market that gradually woke up outside the city wall, and listened to the sound of the silent whip of the three major halls behind him, at that moment the ancestor felt that he was standing in the center of the entire empire.

How much he loved that feeling, and perhaps that was why he had been loyal to the imperial power all his life.

"Take me up, I'm running out of time, let me take another look......"

"Woooooooooo......oo It's the master!" Everyone choked up and couldn't bear it, and the tears of the bean big crackled down, "The master watches the sunrise, and the disciples build the tower ......"

"Yes......" The disciples and grandchildren in the courtyard actually built a fish beam in the courtyard leading to the roof like a stack of arhats.

Dr. Buck and several nurses were dumbfounded, especially after the two big disciples carried the master and apprentice to step on the fish beam road formed by the head and shoulders of the person, and each of the disciples who was stepped on would shout with tears in their eyes, "Send the master to watch the sunrise......

"Send the master to watch the sunrise...... Send the master to watch the sunrise......" The voice is loud and melodious, and tears are like springs.

This is the master-apprentice relationship of the ancient Chinese, not father and son are better than father and son! In the end, even Long Ye was moved, he flew up to the roof with a few wolf skin mattresses, "Lay a quilt for the ancestors, you lie soft and point!"

"There is Lao Longye...... "The old ancestor was lying on a few wolf skin mattresses, his body was leaning against the pouring roof, and in front of him was a round of red sun spewing out.

"It's a new day! The clouds have dispersed...... It's a new day!" "The red sun had jumped out of the horizon, and the love of the old ancestor suddenly became excited, and he clenched his fists and burst into tears.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Court, look at it, it's a new day...... I can't protect you, old slave...... Fight for ......"

Before the words fell, the old ancestor lay in the arms of the dragon with his head crooked, and the old ancestor of the Forbidden City, who had experienced the three dynasties of Daoguang, Xianfeng, and Tongzhi, finally passed away, and he did not blink an eye until he died.

"Master...... Master ...... Woooooo

Note: This is today's second update, don't scold me, there is indeed something to change every day, if you want to know more about it, add a group, 116253076 this chapter wrote about the death of the ancestor, to be honest, the mood is very bad, although the ancestor is a little old, but he has Chinese very traditional virtues, loyalty and faith. Although pedantic, this kind of character is still commendable, although he is the enemy of the protagonist, but this is also a respectable enemy!
