Chapter 977: Six Years Later
Time flies, and it has been six years in the blink of an eye.
Six years ago, Wang Xu realized that the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect would be subsided in three or five years, but he didn't expect that he was wrong.
Now six years have passed, and Wang Xu has also changed from a 19-year-old boy to a 25-year-old young man, but the White Lotus Sect rebellion is still continuing.
I want to say something extra here, if it is really the same as Fahai thought, there is really a shadow of the demon clan behind the White Lotus Sect, but this demon clan is not the Northern Demon Clan, but the Kyushu Demon Clan itself.
There are countless demon clans in the world, not counting the extreme north, there are demon clans in the territory of the human race, the dragon race, and the barbarians.
The emperor is far away, not all the demon clans are bent on joining the Northland, and the local demon clans among the three clans just want to have a good time.
In the second year, the Great Wu Dynasty raised troops with a large battalion in the south of the Yangtze River and went straight to the White Lotus Sect, which had been greatly injured, wanted to recapture the land of the two states in one fell swoop.
And just at the time of the Armageddon, the Kyushu Demon Clan suddenly appeared and joined the White Lotus Sect camp.
In everyone's imagination, the demon clan in the land of Kyushu is weak, and most of the sixth-order demon gods are related to the three sects and nine streams.
But on this day, I learned that among the native demon clans in Kyushu, there were still three demon gods who broke through and hid in Tibet all day long.
As soon as these three demon gods appeared, they showed that the chariots and horses supported the White Lotus Sect Master, plus the five Outer Dao Demon Venerables who came to help the fist, the White Lotus Sect reached an extremely terrifying nine people in terms of sixth-order combat power for a while.
You must know that in the entire Terran camp, there are no more than fifty existing sixth-order masters.
Divided, there are only about 20 people in the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, each of whom is a great bodhisattva with a name and a surname, and a great Tianzun, which can be called the human race's Dinghai God Needle.
In terms of numbers and strength, of course, the three sects have the advantage, but at the point of the sixth order, the attack is enough to destroy the land of a state, and they are afraid of each other, and no one dares to start a war lightly.
In the end, the two sides discussed, monks above the fourth order should not interfere, and let the people below come to the battle below, and then the matter was revealed.
But the problem came again, without the intervention of the high-level monks, let the low-level monks fight by themselves, and how long did this last.
Fighting back and forth, the two sides have attacked and defended, and they have fought for six years, and they have not won or lost so far.
"Mr. said, if you don't understand reason, my generation of Confucian students should unite knowledge and action, and everyone is gathered today, how about distinguishing people's hearts?"
"Why don't you dare, how do you argue?"
"Let's discern why the people of Jiangnan and Erzhou support the White Lotus Sect, who makes sense, let's invite him to drink together."
"Good..."
In a restaurant, there are seven talented people, all slightly drunk, pointing out the mountains and rivers in high spirits.
Hearing the question and the lottery, the first genius stood up and said: "In my opinion, the most fundamental reason why the people of Jing and Jiaozhou support the White Lotus Sect is the land.
In the land south of the Yangtze River, land annexation is serious, ninety percent of the land is in the hands of an adult, as a common people, it is difficult to see the light, and after the White Lotus uprising, the gentry were either killed or fled, leaving a large area of ownerless land.
These lands have been distributed to the common people, and the landed seeds who support the White Lotus Sect are their own, and they are their own land, how do you let them choose.
Even, when the imperial court conquered the two states, the local people had many obstructions, nothing more than the fear that the White Lotus Sect would be defeated, and their land would be recovered by the government and redistributed to the gentry who fled.
If there is a conflict between the policy and the interests of the people, the people will naturally not support it, not to mention that the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect is a man-made disaster, and those people who seem to be honest and responsible may not be as peaceful as they show, and there can be a few who are really clean. ”
"Good!"
When the other six heard this, they arose and gave him a glass of wine.
After a glass of wine, the second person stood up again and said, "I think that the reason why the people support the White Lotus Sect is that in addition to land reasons, there is another topic that cannot be avoided, that is, religion.
Faith is very contagious, and if you compare people to water, faith is ink.
Once the ink is poured into the water, it is difficult to keep it from black.
The younger brother is not talented, he once traveled to Jiaozhou, and the ordinary people there have been brainwashed by the people of the White Lotus Sect when they open their mouths Miller is alive and close their mouths to their hometowns.
They are no longer themselves, but the carriers of faith, they regard faith as more important than their lives, thinking that everything that the White Lotus Sect says is right, and everything that opposes the White Lotus Sect is wrong.
Therefore, I believe that land is only one thing, faith is the second, and it is also the foundation of the White Lotus Sect to win the hearts of the people.
Some people in Jiaozhou have faith in their hearts, and they will feel very happy when they eat Guanyin soil.
They think that death is not terrible, but that the living has no soul, no faith, and that they will suffer after death.
Religious believers firmly believe that after death, they can ascend to the vacuum heaven, be with Maitreya, suffer in this life, and enjoy happiness in the next life, and death will naturally not be terrible. And the sad thing is that a hundred years of life is unpredictable in this life, so what can you look forward to in the next life? ”
"Good!"
The crowd stood up again and toasted the second person with a glass of wine.
"It's my turn!"
The third man put down his glass, got up from his seat, and said, "The first two are right, but I have to add."
In my opinion, in addition to the fact that a few people control the wealth of many people, the extremely irrational distribution of wealth, and the problem of faith, there is actually an unavoidable problem. ”
When everyone heard this, they put down their wine glasses and listened.
The person who spoke was not ambiguous, knocked the folding fan in his hand with both hands, and said: "The problem I want to talk about is that it is difficult to marry a wife, and the people at the bottom have no choice.
Take the gentry in the countryside as an example, who is not three wives and four concubines, there are groups of wives and concubines, and one person can account for at least a dozen wives.
There are even some perverts, who are brides every month, enter the cave room every day, and occupy how many women one person has.
If you don't believe it, go down and see, out of ten families, how many of them have taken wives.
I have a friend named Feng Ning, who is from an ordinary family, and he told me that in his generation, there are six men and four sisters in his family.
The whole family is looking forward to him being promoted, because only when he is promoted can he have the money to marry his three brothers and two younger brothers, so that the four sisters will not be concubines because of the dowry, this is the problem.
I was particularly shocked when I heard this, and my husband said that I should seek the truth from reality, and in order to verify this truth, I went to the following place to visit.
It's shocking, in ordinary people's homes, three or four men are considered normal, and there can be seven or eight more.
In comparison, there are more men than girls, why, because in the event of a famine or recession, the girls' share of food should be divided into half to the boys.
Everyone believes that boys are the pillars of the family, and girls are unfamiliar losers.
In this way, it is good not to encounter a disaster year, but if it does, the loss rate of girls in disaster years is more than four times that of men.
Unfortunately, in the past 20 years, not to mention the successive disasters, compared with the local county records, the number of disasters has been several times more than in previous years.
As a result, there are more and more men, fewer and fewer girls, and there are groups of rich wives and concubines, and ordinary people are struggling to survive, so there are naturally more singles.
In Hangzhou alone, I have roughly counted that there are 180 million people, of which about 60 million are singles.
On average, one out of three people is a single, some people have eight sons in a generation, seven singles, and seven people work together to give one person a wife, which looks nothing on the surface, but behind the scenes, the daughter-in-law is shared by everyone, do you say it's terrible?
It is human nature to pass on the ancestry, there are few resources, and the rich occupy more, how do you think it should be solved?
I don't know, the people of Jingzhou and Jiaozhou know that they chose to kill that small number of people, rob their fields, and divide their women, which is why the people of Jingzhou and Jiaozhou do not support the imperial court, but support the White Lotus Sect, because the imperial court will not give them this opportunity, and the White Lotus Sect gives..."
Everyone was speechless for a while, there are thousands of reasons for a happy family, and a miserable family always has a tragic key.
What is the point, without money, not everyone will make money, and not everyone has the mind to make money.
If this misfortune is the misfortune of a few, then just ignore it and ignore it.
If this misfortune is the misfortune of most people, then there is a problem, you have to wonder if something is going to happen.
What should I do if I don't have money, go steal and rob, I am unwilling to go with the flow, I can't maintain my life if I don't steal or rob, I have no choice.
"Mr. said that internal contradictions can be solved externally, Kyushu is too small, if it is twelve states, twenty states, the current problem can be alleviated." The first person to say the land said with a dark expression.
"Sir also said that faith is because of ignorance, and when one day everyone is like a dragon and you yourself are God, you will no longer believe in God." The second man who spoke of faith also spoke.
"Mr. also said that what we don't have, others have, don't be afraid, snatch him and we will have it."
The third one said that the woman's eyes flickered, first looking at the north, and then at the south, as if he had seen through the layers of fog and saw the territory of the barbarian and demon clans.
The crowd bowed their heads and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, a man who had never spoken, with a look of a slight gain, said, "Sir is right! ”
