Chapter 31 What is the Right Path?
"Don't make a fuss, get down to business. Today's sermon, be serious. Dao suppressed the blood in his heart, and said in a calm tone.
Dabao Huang Banyuan hurriedly sat upright, Huang Banyuan was afraid that Dao would beat him, and he was not skinny, looking at Dao with a trace of anger in his blandness, Huang Banyuan really wanted to seal his mouth, why couldn't he control his mouth?
"Before I preach, I'll tell you a story. There used to be a man who liked to talk all day long, and could see a lot of things like a golden crow in the sky, and one day he went out talking about something that other people were interested in, and then he was beaten to death. Comprehend for yourselves what I have said. Dao glanced at Huang Banyuan, Huang Banyuan nodded hurriedly, and then made a gesture to seal his mouth, Dao nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, let's start preaching. Today's topic is what is the right path and what is the devil's path. Dao raised his hand and pointed at Huang Banyuan, as if he was looking forward to Huang Banyuan.
Huang Banyuan has been immersed in the pleasure and pain of Dabao's feeding for the past few days, not to mention his own thoughts, even if the topic is unknown, he can only look at Dabao for help.
Dao glared at Huang Banyuan, this kid must not let him go like this. "Don't look at your senior sister, if you don't say a word today, don't think about going out of this door. ”
Huang Banyuan could only accept his fate, racking his brains to think about the knowledge he had learned in his two lives: "Master E, I think E······" Huang Banyuan was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
Dabao is also anxious, I have been taking care of my junior brother in the past few days, but I have caused chaos for my junior brother, "Senior brother, it is the devil's way to lose all your conscience, and the way to eliminate demons is the right way." Dabao whispered beside Huang Banyuan. Dao smiled strangely at Dabao, Dabao's face turned red, and he still couldn't hide it from the master.
"Master, I believe that the loss of conscience is the path of the demons, and the path of eliminating demons is the right path. Huang Banyuan said with a normal face, joke, at this time, you must not show a trace of cheating.
"Does that mean that doing bad things is the devil's way?"
"That's for sure. Huang Banyuan nodded solemnly.
"Then you say that robbery and legal tax increases are both taken, without harming the people, which is not the devil's way?"
"Pay the tax. Huang Banyuan touched his head, and the master really didn't play cards according to common sense.
"That's the same take, why do you divide the right path and demons?"
"Forehead ······" Huang Banyuan couldn't answer.
"Then tell me why the path of demon slaying is the right way?" said Dao suddenly changed the subject.
"Well, because the things that the devil does are not good, and the righteous way kills the demons and destroys the demons for the world, then what is done is a good thing. Huang Banyuan was a little incoherent.
"So continuing with what we just said, if the Devil's Way is not the Devil's Path, then how is the Righteous Path judged? Since it can't be distinguished, then why should we judge the Righteous Path and the Devil's Path in a way that is not clear? So we must have our own scale in our hearts to judge what is the Righteous Path and what is the Devil's Path. ”
"Then Master, what do you think is the right path and what is the devil's way?" Huang Banyuan began to ask rhetorically.
"I love a quote. Dao did not answer Huang Banyuan's words. "Do you say that the one who killed one hundred and fifty murderers is evil, or the one who protects those murderers is evil?"
Huang Banyuan said without thinking: "That must be the evil of those who protect those murderers." ”
Dao seemed to laugh but not smile: "The person who killed those murderers also has one hundred and fifty lives in his hands, so isn't he evil?"
"Well, that's the wickedness of the one who killed the murderer. Huang Banyuan was stunned, how to say this question.
If every murderer kills one person, and the accomplice is at least half responsible, then the person who protects the murderer has at least seventy lives in his hands, isn't it evil?"
"Master, who do you say is more evil? Huang Banyuan was a little angry.
"What if you think of them all as a country?" said Dao, Huang Banyuan was stunned, and Dao continued: "Prisons are those who protect murderers, of course, prisons also play the role of supervision and education, but what if it is a prison in a rotten country?"
After speaking, he listened to the sermon, gave the two senior siblings time to think, and then said after a while: "And those who kill those murderers are the ones who carry out the execution, are they evil? They just obey people's orders." Moreover, they have the right to protection and the obligation to carry out the death penalty. ”
Huang Banyuan couldn't help but say, "Then Master, you still haven't said who you think is more evil." ”
"It doesn't matter who is evil, who is strong is the most important. Dao shook his head, "You are strong enough, that is, you make rules, you can specify who is going to carry out executions, and who should be protected and supervised." This is what power and your strength dictate. ”
Huang Banyuan still didn't understand a little, but Dabao suddenly realized: "If you are strong enough, you are the right way, and if you are weak, you are the devil's way, Master, I understand." Dabao said.
"You still don't understand. Dao shook his head, "If a person or organization doesn't suit your liking, no matter how strong it is, it's still a demon." If you are to my heart, then you are on the right path. Himself is the right path, and of course, one cannot cross the line of morality. What is morality? Man and Heaven are in harmony with the Tao, and we must not go against the way of humanity, heaven, and nature, otherwise, no matter how strong you are, there will always be someone stronger than you who can turn you into a demon. ”
The two sisters and brothers are becoming more and more confused.
Dao shook his head, and knew that this matter could not be taught by talking, but still depended on his own qualifications and his own values and outlook on life. "You don't have to be too distracted by this matter, okay, that's all for today, go back and go for yourself. I'm going on a long trip recently, so stay at home and don't mess with all the bells and whistles, you know?"
"Master, how long are you leaving?" asked Dabao, who was the first to return to his senses.
"Maybe half a year, maybe longer. Dao shook his head, remembering the dog in front of Nuwa's palace.
Dabao was secretly happy, half a year, he must be close to his junior brother.
Huang Banyuan was still drilling the tip of the bull's horns, and he didn't notice Dabao's lewd smile at all, otherwise he would have a nightmare again.
