Chapter 144: Selected
When Gao Fei returned to the yang world again, it was already three months later, and his cultivation had rapidly improved to the late stage of foundation building within these three months, with the help of the incarnation of the gods of the Yuan Infant Realm, and now his cultivation path was extremely comfortable, and I believe that there would be no bottlenecks before reaching the Yuan Infant Stage.
At this time, it was less than half a month before the Tengu Eating Moon, and it was a good time to look for the thousand-year-old centipede essence. Those Taoist priests of the Hall of Elders were already waiting for Gao Fei to wait for him, if it wasn't for Gao Fei coming back, he thought that this great power had given up on them.
Hearing the imperial court information collected by the Hall of Elders, Gao Fei knew that the centipede's refinement had reached a critical moment.
Recently, there has been a political struggle in the court, and many Qing officials and Confucians have been framed by many corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they have either been imprisoned or killed, including Fu Tianqiu.
Cihang Pudu also began the road of national evangelism, and this qiē action shows that Pudu Cihang has reached the moment of breakthrough, and those court officials will soon be devoured by centipede essences.
During this time, Yan Chixia also went to the capital to look for Gao Fei, but unfortunately because Gao Fei had entered the underworld, where he could find it, he returned to Lanruo Temple to live in seclusion.
He was indifferent to Xiahou Jian's wooing, Yan Chixia had already seen through the ugliness of officialdom and was unwilling to return to that place of black miasma.
Gao Fei began to express his idea of wanting to change the dynasty, which surprised those Taoist priests, everyone knows that the current court is exhausted, but the world is maintained in a chaotic situation, I didn't expect Gao Fei to be the black hand who pushes behind his back.
You must know that cultivators cannot directly participate in the change of dynasty, otherwise they will be easily injured by the dragon qi of the imperial court. But if you get involved as an ordinary person. It is difficult to have a huge impact on the general trend of the world, once the forces assisted by themselves fail. It will bring very strict consequences, and the lightest is the loss of mana. become mortal; The heaviest is that the soul is scattered, and it is not allowed to be reborn.
However, if the forces he assists succeed in overthrowing the imperial court and changing the dynasty, then according to the role of the monk in it, the dragon qi will give him great help, and breaking through with the help of the dragon qi is one of the safest ways to promote, which can make those monks whose cultivation is stagnant or encounter bottlenecks to practice day by day, and it is not impossible to even become immortals.
However, it is not advisable to let Gao Fei directly lead the people's uprising, because the emperor can only be a mortal, and the emperor cannot become a cultivator. Unless a cultivator loses his mana, he cannot become an emperor.
But that doesn't mean Goofy can't control the rebels' movements.
"Who among you would like to give up your cultivation and become the Founding Emperor?" Gao Feiming asked in a flickering manner.
As soon as these words came out, not only those young people with low cultivation, but also those middle-aged people in the Qi cultivation period swallowed a mouthful of spit, compared to the Taoist priests who would not have much future, the emperor's temptation was obviously much greater.
The young man who suddenly lowered himself fell to his knees regardless of his reserve, even a few middle-aged Taoist priests.
"My lord, I do."
The uneven voices of consent are endless. Many people are glaring at the people around them because they are competitors at the moment. There is only one emperor, there are so many competitors, how not to be angry.
"Stand up and speak."
The long distance made them unconsciously forget about it, and Goofy hated the practice of kneeling. Immediately stood up in a hurry, but was a little overwhelmed. If you don't kneel, how can you talk to adults?
"In the future, there will be anything. Those who sit stand up and speak, and those who stand come out of the line to speak. Goofy made etiquette simple. This inadvertently became a common etiquette all over the world in the future, making Goofy the ancestor of modern etiquette.
"There are so many of you. But there is only one Emperor, and I need to choose a suitable candidate from among you to become Emperor. Gao Fei said lightly, and the Taoist priests below were very nervous, for fear that they would not be able to enter Gao Fei's eyes. Gao Fei didn't expect that so many Taoist priests would immediately give up cultivation when they faced the temptation of the emperor, and if they were not so determined, they would not achieve anything in the future.
Even those Taoist priests who did not immediately kneel down and loudly say that they were willing to become emperors, many of them also showed regret on their faces, only blaming themselves for being indecisive and not agreeing immediately. These people are not as good as those Taoist priests who give up immediately in the face of temptation, and if they are so half-hearted, they can only achieve nothing in the future.
There are only a few people, who have not changed the road to becoming emperors, most of them are middle-aged Taoists, and only a few young Taoists.
"To choose to be the emperor, first of all, you must have the courage to give up your cultivation; second, to be strong in martial arts; Third, you should be knowledgeable, at least have a general understanding of history. Those who meet all of these three stand up for themselves. ”
Gao Fei's conditions immediately eliminated the vast majority of Taoist priests, after all, these Taoist priests have been practicing Taoism since elementary school, and they can learn martial arts, but most of them are not proficient; Scholars can learn, but most of them are Taoist classics. There are very few who are also in line with martial arts and learning, and they are all those Taoist priests who are backward in cultivation.
The rest of the people were all eligible for Goofy, and they all looked at Goofy nervously, not knowing what to do.
Gao Fei kept a close eye on their faces, and even used mana to probe the bodies of those Taoist priests from time to time, and finally selected a suitable candidate from one of them.
"You are destined to have no children in your life, and it is you." Gao Fei said to a handsome Taoist priest among the remaining candidates.
Gao Fei's choice greatly surprised these Taoist priests, and he could be a candidate to become emperor if he had no children?
Looking at those Taoist priests with angry faces, Gao Fei explained lightly: "Because in my plan, there can only be one emperor in the future, so I chose him." ”
Then Gao Fei spoke out about his understanding of democracy, such an alternative way of governing caused a lot of repercussions among these Taoist priests, of course, not positively, but unable to understand whether this way of constantly changing emperors is a brain disease, as long as he sits on who wants to come down.
This is the inadequacy of the times, they simply cannot understand that once such a way is formed, no one can always occupy the seat and do not move, and others will naturally drive him off the throne.
There is no much explanation, because it cannot be explained clearly at one time, and democracy is only useful when the whole people are enlightened, otherwise it will become a hegemony in the guise of democracy. This is also the reason why Goofy wants to retain a single emperor, and only when this emperor raises the people's education and living standards dramatically during his reign can a democratic situation be formed at the time of abdication.
No matter how many disadvantages democracy has, real democracy must be a government that is good for the people, at least the voice of the people, and the government cannot ignore it.
The young man who was declared destined to be childless by Gao Fei stayed there motionless at the moment, which made people feel distressed, in this feudal society where there are three unfilial pieties and no queen is great, this is definitely a huge blow.
"Your name?" Gao Fei asked the handsome young man, this young man doesn't look good, but he has a slender body, and his swordsmanship is known to everyone among the Taoist priests, and he is a swordsmanship genius.
"Li Yi." Even in a trance, the young man still made a return to Goofy's question, which was not simple.
"I'm giving you a task now, to subdue at least five hundred bandits within 10 days, and if you can do it, you will be the emperor in the future." Goofy said as he took out a sharp sword from the space, which was made of high-strength alloy and was absolutely sharp. "This is a weapon for you, don't die."
After speaking, he will ignore him, and what to do next depends on his own choice.
"Then disband, let me keep an eye on Pudu Cihang's whereabouts, on the day of the Tengu eclipse moon, it will be his death." (To be continued......)
