Chapter 1097: Talking to the World
Luo Feng's rhetoric could not completely convince Jiujianxian.
In the minds of many good and decent people in the plot world, the ideal state of the world should be harmonious and beautiful. They cannot bear to see anyone suffering in front of them, and hope that everyone can wear a happy smile all day long.
However, ideals are very full, and reality is very skinny. This kind of decent people can at most take care of the immediate and present, and save the poor people they can see. Considering the overall situation, the darkness that quietly breeds in places they cannot see, they In other words, out of sight is pure.
Even though Jiu Jianxian couldn't refute what Luo Feng said, he still couldn't accept it emotionally and thought there must be a gentler and more secure way.
In the view of Jiujianxian, Luo Feng’s senior brother who “kills to protect lives and kills deeds but not people” is too extreme. Even if the purpose is good, the means are wrong. Even if the future can be reversed, What this extreme killing leads to may not be a better future.
Even if Zen Master Luo really has the power of destiny and sees that the six realms will be destroyed by disasters in the future, but he uses cruel methods of sacrificing some people in the present, he may not change the future for a better place. What if the destruction of the world comes early?
In a sense, Jiu Jianxian's worries are not wrong. No time traveler dares to easily affect the timeline. Even if he knows that the future is terrible and tries to make changes, things often backfire and the result may be even more bleak. ending.
Just like the "Flashpoint Event" in a certain DC world, the Flash traveled across time and space to save his mother, only to find that his mother was rescued, but the world was in chaos: Wonder Woman and Aquaman led their troops to war; Bruce died Now, his father has become Batman; Superman was raised by the military to become a skinny otaku; the group of children who formed Shazam were all killed by Wonder Woman...
Of course, this does not mean that changing the timeline will definitely lead to disaster. The mutants in the Marvel Universe conducted a "Reversal of the Future" operation and luckily successfully restarted the universe.
This is like a lottery. People who change the established timeline will never know what the changed world line will look like. It is very normal for good intentions to do bad things and bad intentions to do good things instead.
As for what impact changing the world line will have on the plot world, and whether it will lead to the world being destroyed at a faster rate, Luo Feng doesn't care.
Changing the world line is the basic job of the Lord God investigator. As long as it can be changed, it is good, and it does not matter if the result is worse.
All the natives in the plot world are puppets at the mercy of the Lord God. The world line is greatly disturbed. After subversive changes, the amount of data calculation will be too huge, resulting in the Lord God's control of the world declining. The best result is to be able to This world is completely free from the control of the main god, and the natives of the plot world decide their own destiny.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, the plot world is like pig farms. What Luo Feng did was to incite a group of pigs to break the pig pens and let the pigs escape into the jungle. As for the pigs entering the jungle, they were for Whether the beast evolves into a wild boar with extra food or not is none of Luo Feng's business.
After listening to Luo Feng's "sermon", Jiujianxian was silent for a long time. Even though he didn't agree with it and felt unhappy in his heart, he could only temporarily accept the reality that the prince of the Song Dynasty would never be able to get him back.
Luo Feng sent people to hide the remaining three princes among the people. Only Luo Feng and the people most loyal to him knew where they were going. In ancient times, there was no genetic technology. The princes could only leave one or two specious portraits. Jiujianxian took I slowly searched for the portrait, and even if I was lucky enough to find it, I didn’t know how many years later it would be.
By that time, the new dynasty had already pacified the world, and the establishment of a prince from the previous dynasty had become a new source of trouble, running counter to Jiujianxian's original intention.
Things cannot be done and cannot be forced. Apart from swallowing the bitter pill and giving up the idea of searching for the prince of the Song Dynasty, what else can Jiujianxian do?
"Okay..." Jiujianxian sighed dejectedly: "In this case, the old Taoist can only support your idea of making Nuwa's descendant the emperor, but you must clean up the world's chaos as soon as possible, and you cannot let the war and turmoil continue for too long. !”
Luo Feng smiled imperceptibly and said calmly: "Taoist Master's choice is very wise. If you can give up meaningless suspicions and internal strife, and work together with the poor monk, it will actually not be as difficult as you think to pacify the world."
The Jiujianxian said with a bitter face: "In the restaurant, the old Taoist heard from businessmen from all over the country that recruiting flags were being put up everywhere in the Central Plains. What's more, there were even rebels who were seizing young men. I counted eighteen. You can say that it is easy for the rebel king to support his troops and stand on his own. I would like to ask you, how do you plan to quell the chaos that is about to break out in the Warring States Period?"
Luo Feng laughed and said: "Isn't this easy? You and I are both top experts in the human world. When the time comes, we will form a 'decapitation duo'. When you hear which family becomes the king, you will use a gourd to carry the poor monk and fly away. We carried out a surprise airborne attack at night, and jointly slaughtered all the senior members of the king's forces, including their entire family, young and old. Without their leader, wouldn't the various rebel armies collapse without a fight?"
"This...how is this different from the Demon Lord's way of doing things?"
The Jiu Sword Immortal was shocked and turned pale. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I won't do such a cruel thing, and I will never allow you to act so wantonly!"
Luo Feng said coldly: "The poor monk just followed my senior brother's example and said, 'Behead the karma, not the person'. If you don't use thunderous means to immediately eliminate the signs of the rebellion, how can you show your 'Bodhisattva heart' of killing living beings to protect them?"
"I can't explain why, but I just feel that it's a big mistake to do this!"
The Jiu Sword Immortal frowned and said, "Don't tell me such nonsense as all things are empty, karma and destiny! You are just killing mortals indiscriminately by relying on your extraordinary magic power, and I will risk my life to stop you!"
Luo Feng muttered rather impatiently: "It's not easy to cooperate with people from the right path. It's really troublesome to have to spend money on simple things!"
Seeing him chattering to himself, Jiujianxian quickly asked loudly: "What did you say?"
Luo Feng helplessly shrugged and said: "The poor monk is praising the Taoist Priest for his tolerance and kindness, and reflecting on his excessive eagerness for quick success and quick gain, and is repenting! Just follow the Taoist Priest's words, do not kill mortals indiscriminately, and use more appropriate methods." Isn’t that enough?”
The Jiujianxian breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and asked, "But what is the proper way to do it? If it is delayed for a long time and war breaks out, the people will suffer."
Luo Feng felt quite unhappy, saying to himself that you can't accept Thunder's killing methods, but you find it too slow to adopt gentler methods. Why are you so difficult to serve?
Patiently, Luo Feng showed a compassionate smile and said: "For the current plan, we can only rely on the poor monk's tried and true tongue to visit the anti-kings from house to house to persuade and educate them. Persuade them to put down their ambitions, either disband the army or submit to the new dynasty."
Jiu Jianxian still frowned, and said with a grimace: "Alas... How can we easily persuade an ambitious man who dreams of becoming an emperor with words alone? The best way is actually to move out of the Song Dynasty prince..."
Seeing him beating around the bush and going back again, Luo Feng's face sank and he said displeasedly: "The Taoist Master is a bit underestimating the power of the poor monk's words. We Buddhist monks are best at... ahem, explaining the principles of life, Encourage people to be good and enlighten the ignorant. You must know that the poor monk's mouth has been enlightened, and look at how the poor monk's tongue shines like a lotus. In minutes, he can make them repent of their lives and change their past mistakes!"
Jiu Jianxian was still doubtful, but seeing Luo Feng's confident look, he could only suppress his doubts for the time being, thinking about observing the actual effect of his efforts to persuade the anti-king in the future before making any judgment.
Even if Luo Feng's mouth is open, he can't easily convince the careerists who have soldiers and horses and want to rebel. His idea is to put a miniature telephone snail in each person's ear and develop them all into " Users of the "Best Good Baby" system.
In this way, on the surface, it looks like the eminent monk's tongue is shining like a lotus flower to enlighten the stupid, but in fact, it is using parasites to torture and threaten to control, which can make ambitious people suddenly enlighten and see through the world of mortals, and become extremely kind and obedient.
This will stop the mouths of the righteous people in the world, and no one will jump out to say that Zen Master Luo practices evil in the name of Buddhism.
A hundred years later, when these controlled anti-kings die, the truth will gradually be submerged. Maybe the unofficial history of the barnyard official will still spread the good story of "In ancient times, Taizu of the Song Dynasty released his military power with a cup of wine, but now there is Monk Luo who calms the world with his words." This shows Monk Luo's Buddhist philosophy. A legendary figure with unparalleled profundity, moral appeal and charisma.
