The men on the Huayu continent can be roughly divided into two kinds of people from different modes of thinking: idealists and realists. In this world, there are only two bowls of rice: royal rice and Jianghu rice. And all those who don't eat the emperor's food can actually be collectively called the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes; Among these people, except for a very small number of rich children, they are unwilling to accept the constraints and control of the imperial court laws because of their free and easy nature; Most of the rest are realists who want to earn a bite to eat and support their families in the troubled times.

Like those who are struggling to die, realists are not humble; And the idealists are not superior.

In fact, the perspective of realists looking at problems is not fundamentally different from that of businessmen, they are all about pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and putting interests first. Between the two, there is only a difference in the rules of restraint: the constraints of the people of the rivers and lakes are the rules and morals set by their ancestors; The restraint of merchants is the basic principle of profit, and various imperial laws.

Therefore, from the perspective of the realist Da Lei, how many people will die when the Yuhe River bursts, and what does it have to do with himself? These people in the rivers and lakes have no chance to get their hands on the river, industry and silver; Once the dams of despicable quality are washed away, even the accusations of conscience and moral character of heaven and earth will not be touched on these people. When the day when the river poured into the banks of the Yu River, they organized their disciples, opened a few disaster relief porridge sheds, gave some medicinal herbs to take clothes, and then relieved some orphans, old and young children, and they had fulfilled their responsibilities and righteousness; But why did he have to carry the heads of the disciples and help the King of Qin raise the banner to rebel and conquer the world? Who will sit on the emperor's dragon chair, and what can it have to do with whether the Yu River will break the embankment?

In fact, even the self-proclaimed King of Qin, Zhou Changfeng, who had already been drunk in a dream, did not expect to be able to firmly envelop these heroes under his account by relying on a slightly vulgar wine and meat banquet. Neither side is a hairy boy who has just come out of the rivers and lakes, and the confession of the huge Lei Fangcai is just a scene in the rivers and lakes; A few kind words, could it be that he still can't hear the wind around him?

However, Guan Beidou came to Chang'an City today to speak for King Qin, who is not easy to speak; Since he is going to preside over the Jianghu meeting, then he must have come prepared, and it is impossible for him to be speechless when he is asked a few words.

"Da Lei, poor Dao, let me explain to you what is the relationship between the Yu River and the Jianghu Road once the embankment breaks. After the river poured into the villages, towns, and prefectures, and annihilated the land of the manors along the river, the people living near the river could only flee against the flow of the flood. At that time, those areas that have not suffered from floods will also be implicated, and they will become one after another hard-hit areas - man-made disasters. These displaced people who have lost their property and have no way to live will immediately become the shockers of the rules of the rivers and lakes. They have stolen something, and they will not keep it for three days; They rob civilians of their money, and they do not deliberately avoid harming people's lives; They received a handout from the good and the rich, and from then on the whole family would live at the door of the house. With more and more such behaviors, the soil on which the children of the rivers and lakes depend for their survival no longer exists. However, this kind of bad behavior has nothing to do with personal morality, knowledge, and cultivation, and they are just trying to survive. No matter how decent they were originally living, once they could not fill their stomachs, they would immediately become the most ferocious beasts and the most vicious jackals. When that time comes, how should we, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, face them? Can we keep the way that has been handed down by our ancestors through the ages? If you can't preach the Tao, what kind of people are you? ”

After hearing his idea, Da Da Lei immediately felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, and he couldn't help but tremble. In the past, when he walked the rivers and lakes, whenever he met people who violated the rules of the rivers and lakes and violated the etiquette and morality, whether they were rich children or ordinary people, as long as they had a way to die, he would immediately kill them with a sword, and the sword never showed mercy. Chivalrous and righteous and uneven fighting is the truth that Da Da Lei has been guarding for half his life, and it is also his righteousness as a son and daughter of the rivers and lakes. Right and wrong, right and wrong, success or failure, have always been clear iron laws in the mind of Da Da Lei, and there is no room for confusion. However, once these people who touch the bottom line are only motivated by the instinct of survival, rather than driven by greed and materialism, then the original concept of right and wrong in his heart will become blurred.

If that day really comes, can he, the disaster victims who have done evil deeds in order to survive, swing the sword on his huge thunder waist unswervingly? He doesn't understand it now, and probably never will.

Guan Beidou saw that he was deep in thought, so he continued to say to him:

"Since Nankang broke away from Beiyan, the great changes in the past few decades have been obvious to all here, and I will not repeat it. Of course, this does not prove that the Nankang court's means of governing the world are absolutely correct; But at least it proves the incompetence and stupidity of Zhou Yuanqing and his people! The ultimate goal of our listening is to enable the people of the world to live a peaceful and prosperous world without war. The first step in pacifying the world was to completely pacify the Nankang Dynasty. It has taken us nearly 20 years to complete our original vision. And the next second step is to completely pacify the north of the Huajiang River! The biggest obstacle to this step is not the Northern Yan Dynasty where the building is about to collapse, but the Youbei Third Road, which is almost monolithic. Since the road ahead is so difficult, it is not just a matter of Shen Gui and Bai Heng. All the Heavenly Spirit Veiners will disappear from this land forever before the flames of war ignite. ”

Although Guan Beidou's words were a bit big, all the heroes in the hall nodded again and again, and they were secretly impressed in their hearts.

Youbei Sanlu is just a place outside the world, the land is narrow and the people are widowed, the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, the monarch and the minister are not harmonious, and the internal friction is endless. Rao is such a grass platform team with poor mountains and bad waters, but why can it stand for a hundred years and still not be attacked into Fengjing by the iron armor of Beiyan? Even though it has the world's No. 1 Xiongguan to defend it, is the Northern Yan Wang Shi really blocked by a fortified fortress in this area for nearly a hundred years?

The reliance on the three roads in the north is like today's Shen Gui; All the advantages on the surface are actually just auxiliary conditions for icing on the cake; The most fundamental reason is because of a woman named Li Xuanyu.

Twenty years ago, at the East Customs, Yue Haishan, the Qingmang Sword God, had already used the sharp blade in his hand to personally show a miracle to the world: a person with only half a heavenly spirit vein can play a decisive role on the battlefield of the world. What deep ditches and high bases, what bows and crossbows and iron weapons, and those ancient soldiers must fight for the key to victory and defeat, in front of the Heavenly Spirit Vein, are as childish and ridiculous as child's play.

Why was the Northern Yan Dynasty able to settle the Central Plains in the troubled times and hold the Huayu heavy weapons left by the Great Yan of the previous dynasty for nearly a hundred years? All superficial factors such as strong troops, profound heritage, vast land and resources, and the aspirations of the people are also auxiliary conditions; In the final analysis, it is still relying on the great disciple of Xuanxu Daojun, that is, Guan Beidou's master, Mulian Zhenren, who is willing to be the first-class help of the Beiyan Zhou family.

After Nankang announced his independence, although there was no famous Heavenly Spirit Vein to support him; However, they have a natural risk Huajiang River as a barrier, and they have also passed a series of new policies that emphasize commerce and heavy industry, and have harvested a large amount of silver, which can be used as capital to counter Beiyan; Considering that the tentacles are all over the Huayu Continent, and they also choose to sit in Jiangnan Road, Nankang's help is about to come out.

If Di Ting didn't have a Heavenly Spirit Vein person in charge, then the huge wealth they earned back would not have caused a murderous disaster long ago?

Therefore, if you look at it from this point of view, Huayu's world seems to be divided into several families; But in fact, it's just a game manipulated behind the scenes by a few Heavenly Spirit Veiners. Those heroic generals who fought to the death and never retreated, those ordinary soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, those stories of love and hate, and those complex emotions of pain and laughter are all just a monkey show staged for these outliers who are not shackled by the laws of heaven and earth......

The Heavenly Spirit Vein is not all a free and easy character like Bai Heng who plays the world and has no worries. Before his Mulian real soldier Xie Feisheng, he deprived the eldest disciple Guan Beidou of the right to succeed him as the head of the real person for a trumped-up reason, what is this for? Isn't it because as a true person in charge of the sect that he has to protect the sect and cannot enter the Qin Tiansi of the Northern Yan Dynasty? From this point of view, many unsolved doubts are also traceable. For example, Lu Xiangyin, the imperial horse supervisor who had long been an ancient, did not hesitate to betray the sect by means of self-harm, combined with the timing of Li Xuanyu's return to heaven and Lu Xiangyin's instigation of the crown prince Yan Tian to usurp the throne, it is self-evident what the Xuanyue Dao Palace was thinking.

There are Li Xuanyu in the north and Jiang Hanke in the south; There are Zen monks in the east, and there is Xuanyue Palace. Thus. When Yue Haishan swept the East Customs and shook the Huayu Continent, why did he choose Zhuhai in Bashu Road in the southwest border and founded his own sect, the idea is very clear.

In other words, as long as one of these Heavenly Spiritual Veiners is still alive; So this Huayu continent is divided into three parts of the world, or it is unified or unified, in the final analysis, it is just one of their thoughts.

Just like the general trend of the world that will be divided for a long time, and will be divided for a long time. Twenty years ago, after the great shaman Li Xuanyu chose to kill himself at the octagonal altar outside the capital; In the entire Huayu Continent, there was no news of the appearance of the New Heavenly Spirit Vein. Even though Guan Beidou has the power of the earth spirit vein called "Dao Heart", he can use this to deduce the Hua Yu luck between the two Jiazi before and after; However, he couldn't figure out what Li Xuanyu was thinking and what he was doing.

After thinking about it for a long time but not getting it, he could only put the only clue of this strange thing on the nine dragon nails stolen from the dragon veins of Chang'an City before Li Xuanyu's death!
