Chapter 40: You Gotta Eat Meat
Talia blushed again, "Madman, when you avenge me, we will officially be married." ”
"Okay, I won't disappoint Madame."
The two went to the palace and met Kulanyi, and told Kulanyi about the Champa rice. Kulanyi was kind-hearted and sympathetic to the common people, and when he heard that he could solve the problem of eating, he immediately ordered people to start raising seedlings and trying to plant them.
Everything is properly arranged, each responsible for its own responsibilities, and proceeds in an orderly manner. Liu Feng was idle and began to think about some deep-seated questions.
On this day, Liu Feng and Talia were wandering outside, and suddenly, a dirty fat pig went on a rampage in the market. Kulanyi hurriedly dodged, Liu Feng hugged Kulanyi, and gently kicked the fat pig, the fat pig was in pain, snorted, and ran to the other side.
"Talia, you're not weak in kung fu, why are you so afraid of this pig?"
"I'm not afraid of it, I just think it's dirty."
"Pigs are no different from cows, so why are cows sacred?"
"The cows are loyal, they are clean, and they are our friends."
"Talia, in fact, there is no difference between pigs and cows, they are just ordinary animals, and people can raise them and provide us with meat."
"How can that be, cows are our friends and can't be eaten. The pigs are too filthy to eat. ”
Talia's answer explained Liu Feng's long-standing doubts, Liu Feng had always thought that they did not eat pork because of their faith, but they felt inferior and dirty, and this was easy to do. In fact, Shimiro's side is relatively open, and there are few taboos about pigs. So there are pig breeders in this city, otherwise there would be almost no pigs in other places.
Talia, I'll show you there. Actually, pigs are not as dirty as you say.
So Liu Feng pulled Talia and followed the fat pig, and kept walking, running for a long distance before finding its traces under the shade of a tree.
The fat guy was lying in a muddy pond, as if he still didn't feel like it was enough, and rolled a few times in a row, and his whole body was covered in mud.
"Talia, why do you think they're rolling in the mud?"
"I don't know, pigs just like filth."
"No, they actually want to bathe, pigs love cleanliness and have to bathe many times a day. Moreover, they are very smart. ”
"This big stupid pig, where is it smart?"
"You see they are covered in thick mud, can they cool down for a long time?"
"yes, it seems that this pig is not so stupid as he thinks."
Liu Feng put his hands on Talia's shoulders and said solemnly, "In our Datang, pork is the main meat of people, and a strong body is inseparable from meat. And the pig is even a kind of mascot, which is very cute. You know, we Han people have 12 genera, you know this, I am a pig. ”
"In fact, the difference between a pig and an ox and his animals, like the difference between a nobleman and a pariah, is unreasonable. This is also a form of discrimination, where all lives are equal. ”
"Then we can't kill, although my father is a Shiva, he also admires Buddhism, and he also supported your Master Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty very much."
"If we don't eat pork, why do we raise pigs? Every animal or plant has a purpose and purpose for its existence. Just let it be, even Master Xuanzang would not object to ordinary people eating pork. Your father and they have heard Xuanzang's lectures, so they should be very clear about these debates about right and wrong. ”
At this moment, beside the fat pig, a group of little piglets ran forward with a chirp. The whole body is full of dividends, it looks cute and cute.
"You're going to be reasonable. But for a while, it's hard for me to accept, let me think about it. However, this little pig is really cute. ”
Liu Feng knows that it is difficult to change a person's inherent views for a while. However, over time, I believe everyone will be able to accept it.
Fighting a war requires a lot of physical strength, and vegetarians are categorically not good.
Fight the battlefield in order to survive. You can't lose your life for the sake of cherishing the pig's life. Besides, pigs are given by people, and eating meat for people is the meaning of their survival, this truth is actually understood by everyone, in the final analysis, it is still a matter of habit.
Liu Feng and Talia returned to the rented courtyard. In fact, after Kulanyi became the queen, he once told Liu Feng that they could live in the palace. It's just that Liu Feng doesn't want to be too constrained, and he also knows that there are too many things that need to be improved in this place, and it is not easy to find a solution to the problem if he does not touch the bottom here.
After Liu Feng and Talia entered the small courtyard, Guo Jia ushered in. Recently, everyone has been training in the army, and he is the only one who is idle. In fact, Liu Feng wants to popularize some culture and science, but the current environment is still far from this step.
"Madman, I've spent days thinking of a walled structure that can be more defensible, come and see." As he spoke, Guo Jia took out a picture.
This method of drawing is also learned from Liu Feng, which is a good thing.
The previous city defense, especially on the side of Rongriguo, was very simple, if you want the city to be strong, you can make it higher, thicker, and stronger. Compared with the Central Plains, the gap is indeed a bit big.
Since Guo Jia proposed it this time, Liu Feng also wanted to take the opportunity to popularize it.
