The two eyes of the national teacher were shining, full of intoxication and adoration, and he said in a praising tone: "In the beginning, your methods of enslavement were very simple and crude—shackles, chains, leather whips, and butcher knives, except that they were more technologically advanced, they were not fundamentally different from the minions of wild beasts.

"But you evolved quickly, and it didn't take long for you to learn to enslave in the name of totems, glory, gods, and ancestors, you shouted 'In the name of your ancestors,' you killed each other, and you gave everything you had, inspired by the belief in 'serving the gods,' and willingly enslaved.

"Time flies, a thousand years in the snap of a finger, your slavery mechanism is becoming more and more mature and more hidden, gradually, from the agricultural age to the industrial age, you no longer need to use the ethereal 'ancestors', 'gods', 'glory of the country' to enslave, but use all kinds of excess consumption bills, loans that must be repaid on time every month, and vanity and comparison inspired by consumerism, with these things, enslave yourself.

"Look at the current human world, you have simply brought the art or science of 'enslavement' to the fullest, and cultivated to the peak!

"Every human being has just been born, and has not yet enjoyed much freedom and freedom in the warm arms of his mother, and he must be sent to a hobby class to learn all kinds of knowledge, Chinese, mathematics, foreign languages, computer programming, piano painting, basketball and football, your parents are full of ardent expectations, and hang these heavy 'weapons' on you one by one, even if your weak body really can't support it, even if the vast majority of these 'weapons' can't be used at all in the future, they must be just in case.

"Even they know that such a high-intensity study that violates human nature will not make you outstanding, but everyone around you is working so hard, how can they bear to see you fall behind? Even if you are reluctant in your heart, you can only watch with a sad face and continue to learn - this is not slavery, what is it?

"When you are older, when you should be lively and active, and when your nature blooms freely, you are sent to school, to polish the edges and corners, to learn the rules, to destroy all the nature of being an animal, and to become a boxy piece of raw material suitable for human civilization, I really can't think of it, if you are not unknowingly, you have already been enslaved by some mysterious existence, otherwise, how could a child of seven or eight years old or early ten sit in class for forty or fifty minutes, or even two or three classes in a row? This is not in the nature of animals, this is civilization!

"Well, after more than ten years of study or enslavement, you have all refined into qualified bricks and stones, which can be built on top of the majestic and glorious civilization edifice, so you leave the school and enter the small lattice of the office building, or the assembly line of the factory, from dawn to night, from the morning glow to the stars, day after day and even night and night, you endure the scolding of your superiors, the impossible indicators, the torture of cervical spondylosis, stomach pain and neurasthenia, Just in exchange for a paltry salary.

"This salary has just arrived, and your nerves that have been excited from a whole month of suffering and numbness, and before they have been excited for more than three minutes, 50% of them will be used to repay various loans, and the remaining 30% will be used to meet the most basic needs of survival, and the remaining 20% can be saved, that is impossible, if you are asked to accumulate 20% of your salary every month, after the accumulation of a small amount, how can you continue to endure slavery?

"So, the shrewd merchants invented all sorts of things that you didn't need, the same way I deceived the rats, and tricked you into saying that they were all necessities of life—designer bags, designer cosmetics, designer clothing, limousines, globetrotters, trendy food, high-end restaurants, the most cutting-edge technology, and the most important thing that could drain your last savings and keep you in slavery after you were bored.

"Wait, did I mention the funding for children's education, if not, it's too bad, it means you have to hold back your anxiety and frustration and put those 'high-end restaurants, The budget of brand-name bags and cutting-edge technology products is all transferred to the child's interest class, and you pay the meager salary you have squeezed your life in exchange, and then compress all kinds of needs to turn the salary into tuition, and urge, roar, and force the child to go to the interest class, just to turn the child into another you in ten or twenty years, a person who is willing to burn everything he has, dedicate everything he has, sacrifice everything he has, and turn it into fuel for the rapid progress of human civilization.

"To sum up, I think that after tens of thousands of years of development of your human civilization, this latest set of slavery mechanisms is really exquisite, breathtaking, and even more impressive!"

The national teacher said, he really got up from the hospital bed and made a "five-body throw" action.

Of course, with the shape of its pet dog, it is indeed not difficult to do this action.

Chu Ge was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but take half a step back, leaned next to the little palace master's ear, and said in a low voice: "I didn't understand it very well, you help me analyze and analyze, is it criticizing, or is it sarcastic?" ”

"Don't be like this, I think the national teacher is right."

The little palace master also whispered, "I told you last time, many of our Daoists from the Immortal Cultivation Realm are particularly impressed by the current social operation system of your Earth Alliance-you must know that although we have many magical powers and secret methods in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, we can't make a small people who are honest and serve the sect wholeheartedly, even if it is the simplest farming, there are people who do everything to steal and play tricks, as for the sect to serve the sect, lazy, idle and even pretend to be sick, there are even more people, those who live in poor mountains and bad waters, They have no desires or desires, and they are not afraid of death, and we have nothing to do with them.

"Some evil demons in the immortal cultivation world will use methods to confuse the mind to hypnotize mortals to work for immortal cultivators, but the side effects of this are too great, and the hypnotized mortals will soon die of soul exhaustion, which is not very useful.

"As a result, when I came to your earth, hey, you don't need any secret methods of divine souls, nor do you need to pretend to be ghosts, just as the national teacher said, as long as a little bit of money magic, a few fluttering bills and loan repayment reminders at the end of the month can stimulate 100% of everyone's potential, it's amazing!

"From this point of view, whether it is the system of our immortal cultivation realm or the 'deception and enslavement' of the rat civilization, it is too primitive, too backward, too simple and rude, and full of flaws, and we still need to learn from your advanced earth civilization!"

"Yes, what I said just now is all from my heart, and it is neither sarcasm nor criticism, but sincere praise and worship."

The national teacher's ears were very sharp, and when he heard what the little palace master said to Chu Ge, he said with a smile, "The so-called 'civilization' and 'nature' are diametrically opposed poles, in the state of nature, the individual of each creature is a plate of loose sand freely, as long as there is the slightest possibility, the selfish gene will tempt them to cheat and play tricks, preserve wisdom and strength, and are never willing to contribute to an ethereal concept of 'civilization'."

"How to make these individuals willing to sacrifice everything and sacrifice the individual to achieve the whole is not only the premise of the birth of civilization, but also the standard for measuring the advanced degree of civilization.

"Measured by this standard, the human civilization on the earth is indeed very sophisticated, advanced, and developed, no wonder you can create such a brilliant world, even the traversers of the immortal cultivation realm are deeply impressed by you, not to mention me, a soil bun from the underground.

"Actually, to be honest, I don't want to be a god, pretend to be a god all day long, and use the 'created by the gods' to deceive the rat clan, but the development of civilization must always be gradual, and now the evolution of the rat civilization has just begun, and it is indispensable." Faith's crutch, but don't worry, the rat clan iterates very quickly, and it won't be long before they will develop to the current human stage, when the time comes, the rat society will definitely be more complex and sophisticated, maybe every mouse wants to make a mouse hole, and it will have to bear a loan for decades, and the little mouse will be sent to an interest class to learn a hundred ways to grind his teeth - when the time comes, we can completely abandon the concept of 'gods'. ”
