Thundered!

The thunder exploded, like a flash of daylight, illuminating the confused faces of everyone in the temple.

"People's hearts?"

Xiao Wu, a young man who was still wary of Lin Chen, unconsciously listened to his mind at this moment, and asked subconsciously at this moment:

"In that case, isn't it true that no matter what, whether we are doing well or not is in the whim of those old men, so the only thing we can do is to count on them to be kind?"

Zhang Zhiping thought about it for a while, and said solemnly: "Dare to ask Mr., since the change in the world lies in the hearts of the people, but the hearts of the people are separated from the belly, unpredictable, difficult to figure out, and even more difficult to fill the desire, then we can only watch everything happen, and even the big cadres can't escape the ......"

Speaking of this, it seemed that there was something taboo, and then, Zhang Zhiping closed his eyes slightly, and was silent for a while before he opened up, facing Lin Chen, and said word by word:

"These three hundred years of reincarnation?"

When Lin Chen heard this, he asked rhetorically: "Old man, do you really think that people's hearts can't be influenced or even restrained?" ”

"The human heart is an ethereal thing, how can it be influenced, and how can it be constrained?" Zhang Zhiping thought for a moment and asked.

"That's right, just like when the eldest brother beat me, I don't know where to provoke ......," Xiao Wu said quickly.

But before he finished speaking, he was covered by a middle-aged man.

"Mr. Ren speaks, don't interject!" The middle-aged man resisted the urge to beat people and shouted in a low voice.

Lin Chen smiled at this and said: "How to change people's hearts, make everyone's hearts good, and create peace for all generations, isn't this method, the ancient sages, already given to us?" ”

"Huh?!" Everyone was stunned.

Zhang Zhiping had a vague clue, but he still bowed and said respectfully: "I am stupid, please give me advice." ”

Learn a way, take the master first, Lin Chen's knowledge and understanding have surpassed him in terms of level, and it is worth paying a respect.

Lin Chen accepted this gift generously, he knew very well that the other party was not worshipping himself, but the brilliant thoughts in the civilization behind him.

After saluting, Lin Chen did not reply directly, but grabbed an ant from the ground that was crawling and passed by, and displayed it in front of everyone: "Dare to ask you, what is the most important thing for this ant?" ”

"Eat!" Xiao Wu immediately responded.

The middle-aged man stared at Xiao Wu, who suddenly shrank back, and then, he thought for a while, and also picked it up: "Dare to ask Mr., but life?" ”

"That's right." Lin Chen smiled and nodded, and then continued to ask, "Then I want to ask, what is the most important thing for people?" ”

“…… Also, life? Zhang Zhiping groaned.

"If it's life, then why are you risking your lives to save this Zhang Xianggong?" Lin Chen pointed at the middle-aged man, and then pointed at Zhang Zhiping, "If it's life, why do you insist on implementing the law change regardless of your life?" ”

"This ......" For a while, everyone was stunned.

Subsequently, the middle-aged man took the lead in speaking: "We don't have so many ideas, we just think that people like Zhang Xiang can't die!" ”

Zhang Zhiping was also silent for a moment, and then said firmly: "For the sake of the world." ”

"Then, whether it is the idea that people like Zhang Xiang can't die, or the heart of risking their lives for the sake of the people in the world, in the final analysis, it is all for the righteousness of the heart and the morality of the society."

Lin Chen concluded, and then continued: "Then I want to ask, whether it is righteousness or morality, is it innate to human beings? ”

"What does Mr. mean ......" Zhang Zhiping seemed to understand completely at this moment, and muttered, "Morality and righteousness are what we have learned from the classics, and the classics are created by the sages." ”

"We who understand the moral righteousness, know the right and wrong, know how to self-discipline and eliminate the evil in our hearts, and can even go against the instinct of life for the sake of the righteousness in our hearts."

"Therefore, the moral righteousness created by the sages has laid the spirit of civilization inheritance, and to a certain extent, changed people's hearts!"

"That's right." Lin Chen nodded, "Actually, the law of Taiping Datong, the ancient sages have already thought of it, and that is moral righteousness. ”

"The ancient sages founded morality, and restrained people's hearts with moral etiquette, so that we changed from animal nature to human nature, and let us change from the world of the weak to the world of the jungle to the possibility of having a world of great harmony!"

"As long as we follow what the ancient sages did, restrain people's hearts with righteousness, and educate our nature with morality, everyone can abide by it, respect the old and love the young, be kind to others, and be honest and trustworthy......"

"At the end of the day, our whole society will become a society with extremely high moral quality. Even if there is no law, each of us will consciously restrain ourselves to correct the problems caused by the changes of the times and make up for their shortcomings. ”

"Everyone has a very high morality, naturally they will not be corrupt, they will not be exploited, but they will think about others, be strict with themselves, and be cautious and independent."

"When the time comes, the whole society can achieve fair distribution, and there will be income from labor, and in the end, everyone will be like a dragon, and they will march to a broader world outside, and even to the sea of stars......"

"That's so, why did this world become like this?" Hearing this, Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask.

"It's not that moral righteousness doesn't work, but that some people have trampled on it again and again." Lin Chen said lightly.

"Originally, it took thousands of years to form the morality of the old and the old, but to save the old man from being falsely accused, and accompanying the entire family property is enough to make the morality formed for thousands of years crack......"

"And such a small thing, accumulated over such a long period of time in history, will make the efforts of countless sages and ancestors for thousands of years come to naught."

"In the early years of the dynasty, the hearts of the people gathered together to work together to create a prosperous world. But as time goes by, I can't control my desires little by little, and things that corrupt social morality happen one after another......"

"Slowly, from the initial gathering of people's hearts, to the continuous corruption of the social atmosphere, the world is declining, and the people's hearts are not ancient, which eventually leads to the growth of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the landlords are raging, so that the people are not able to make a living, and then reincarnation ......"

"So I think that the decline of the dynasty is not a problem of land, not a problem of taxes, nor a problem of interests, but a problem of people's hearts!"

"Otherwise, in the case of the basic interests getting bigger and bigger, how can there be no idle fields in the four seas, and farmers are still starving to death, in the final analysis, it still depends on the hearts of the people!"

After hearing these words, Zhang Zhiping was silent for a long time, and sighed: "First prove the changes through the ages, but the hearts of the people." Then explain that the ancient sages constrained people's hearts with morality, and then explained the origin of the change of the dynasty from the moral heart, Mr. can have such an opinion, it must be a sage in the mountains and wilderness, a figure with the great virtue of the ancients, and a first-class immortal sage! ”

"The sages created the avenue for the benefit of future generations for thousands of years. True immortals are free from the world, the original intention of the eternal years remains the same, I am just a strange person in the mountains and fields who knows a little knowledge, and what qualifications can I compare to the sages and immortals? Lin Chen shook his head and said.

Subsequently, Zhang Zhiping bowed solemnly to Lin Chen and asked respectfully: "Then dare to ask sir, today, when the way of the sages is damaged, the world is declining, and the people's hearts are not ancient, how should we restrain people's hearts and create peace for all eternity?"

"I don't know." Lin Chen shook his head and said directly.

"Sir, really talented...... Well?! ”
