Chapter 144: Don't Do or Die
In a town like that, all kinds of news are spread by word of mouth. The teahouse is such a place, where people can hear a lot of new things that people don't know about, and it is also in this environment that changes the state of life. People's various views and understandings have also been changed and improved in such an environment. Not only young people, but also many older people. It is a stage for people to understand the society and increase their knowledge.
The old man with the white beard said, "You say that, but it's very practical. Thinking about those emperors, who is not looking for good feng shui everywhere! They want their descendants to enjoy the great cause of the generations. But that court was peaceful, and in the end, no dynasty or generation had been a thousand years, and no dynasty had escaped the catastrophe. These things, in my opinion, are just a comfort in the heart. ”
"Old man, this is a bad statement!" said a middle-aged man who looked like a showman, "Feng Shui has been said for many years, and it has its own truth, but people will change, and Feng Shui will also change." It's not that magical. And those Taoist priests took advantage of people's hope that future generations would be good, and then found a piece of feng shui treasure land to bury their ancestors. This kind of view gives those Daoists an opportunity to take advantage of!"
The white-bearded old man listened to Xiucai's words and nodded incessantly. I agree with this point of view.
The merchant said, "There are some things that you believe in and you don't believe in." It is of course good to have good feng shui, but even if there is good feng shui, if the descendants do not work hard to live, they will inevitably be ruined by them if they do not work hard to live! Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and finding a good place to bury their ancestors is just a kind of filial piety for their ancestors! These deceitful Taoist priests earn money from their filial sons and grandchildren, and some of them are unreasonable. ”
The young man who had been listening to it for a long time said: "According to this statement, isn't society disturbed by those Taoist priests with ulterior motives? Good people will be deceived, while bad people can swagger through the market." How do good people live? How many of us here don't believe in gods! In this way, the gods should have punished those deceitful people and given us a quiet life. But who has seen those deceitful people really be punished as they deserve!"
Wu Yugang felt a lot of emotion when he heard such words, and it is also true that in such a place that has been deeply influenced by religious culture, if people have not been deceived by those who deceive people in the name of religion, how can people have such views and understandings?
Xiucai on the side said: "Then I can't help but talk about this golden mean, the current thing, you can't believe it, and you can't believe it all." There should be some choice and some abandonment, such as me, the imperial court has canceled the imperial examination, if I continue to admit death, there will be no benefit. After all, we still have to live, and the Great Qing Kingdom is gone, but no matter when, we still have a home, we have to live, and those who deceive people will be retribution!"
Wu Yugang heard this person's words, and felt that it was very realistic, and people also needed to live in what kind of environment. However, society is also inseparable from life! Just pin those hopes on the heavenly realm, but the heavenly realm does not take care of everything! Those immortals in the heavenly court are all idle and uneventful, who still has the leisure to manage the affairs of the mortal world! Although there are retributions in religion, it takes several lifetimes of reincarnation, and for such a long time, the world will not be even more chaotic. And it is ridiculous that this makes the bad people suffer the retribution in the world! People only pin their hopes on the retribution of the gods, sad!
Such a heavenly court may have long needed to be improved, and the fact that such a human religion deceives good people should also be changed. Otherwise, it will be difficult for good people to survive and gain a foothold. Who else will recognize and defend the justice in the world? There are more and more bad people, and they do not get the punishment they deserve, and over time, people will think that it is good, that is ability. Good people also learn from the bad, and society will get worse.
I just heard the businessman say: "People's experiences and understandings are different, and they all think about a better life, and there is still no difference." However, in life, the gods we believe in have been disturbed by those hateful Taoist priests, and who still respects them? If this continues, and the gods do not punish them, there will be no one to revere them anymore! However, fortunately, I have seen the gods punish those Taoist priests, no matter what the result is, there are such things anyway, and sometimes, the gods will manifest spirits!"
"God has eyes, I hope those bad people will be punished as they deserve!" said the white beard meaningfully, "Although we are called a place where witchcraft is rampant by the imperial court, after all, there are still differences between the cultures of the north and the south, as long as it is for good, then it is right." ”
Xiucai said admiringly: "Old man! That's right, I think that the imperial court is in the north after all, but we have been detained as a land of witchcraft since ancient times, could it be that those obedient people they have educated, like ghosts, are not witchcraft! I think they have lost their own nature, and they are simply not as good as witchcraft!"
Wu Yazi listened to the words of these people, and laughed secretly in his heart, what he said was right, if people lose their own nature, then what kind of righteous culture is it called! That is, witchcraft! And it is indeed rare for people to understand such a truth. That way, people don't go with the flow or follow the crowd. Only this kind of culture and morality that does not lose the natural beauty is the virtue that people should have.
Such a teahouse is also an indispensable place for the Chinese nation to inherit its traditions and virtues. If people are only obsessed with the so-called culture and lose their social attributes, then they will not be able to distinguish between what is good and what is bad. There is no greater significance, after all, in any place, there will always be a place where people flow and gather, telling all kinds of things, and it is precisely these that people realize the existence of justice and the prestige of those chivalrous.
The teahouses in the town are generally in the neighborhood of the old neighborhood, so the discussion is in full swing, and people are tired of it every day. Because here you can enjoy a period of leisure time, but also to express your own views, opinions and understanding of society. Let people experience the value of their own existence in their spare time, but it is also a distribution center for people to love life, get some inspiration from it, and make life better.
As the people gradually dispersed, the teahouse slowly regained a trace of tranquility. Wu Yugang and his senior brother walked out of the teahouse with the scattered people.
Wu Yazi asked casually, "Senior brother, what are we going to do next!?"
Wu Yugang said: "Let's go, let's go and do our own business! I want to meet those old ways of death!"
