Chapter 207: What Happened in the City

"Etiquette can be distorted by aristocratic families, laws belong to the rulers, morality will sink due to evil deeds... All kinds of things will be corrupted by the greed of human hearts!"

"Only mathematics is the law of nature. Right and wrong are not changed by human hearts. Therefore, it can last forever. Only by governing the world with this can we create eternal peace!"

"Therefore, the morality of my Taiping Dao does not lie in immortals, beliefs, or preaching, but in mathematics that is as cold and ruthless as the way of heaven, but it really exists!"

The young man in Taoist robes stood on the high platform with his hands behind his back. Although his voice was not loud, it could be heard clearly by everyone present.

Looking at the confused crowd below the stage, the young man in Taoist robes sighed softly in his heart.

He knew that for the lower-class people who could not even read a single word, they could not even get enough food, so how could they understand so much?

But it didn't matter. He firmly believed that their path must be correct.

"Next, the people of my Dao will distribute the talisman water, which can eliminate disasters and diseases for you, and prolong your life."

As soon as the words fell, the people of Taiping Dao below began to distribute the talisman water one by one.

The victims who were displaced and starved for thousands of miles wished to stay in this place where they could have enough food, so even if Taiping Dao proposed something, they would obey orders.

On the side, Lin Chen and the others stood in an inconspicuous corner, watching this scene.

"Use mathematics to govern the world..." Xu Yue frowned and thought for a while, then turned his head and asked, "Brother Lin, what do you think?"

Lin Chen looked at the distributed talisman water for a while, and then retracted his gaze.

"What you say is false, what you see is true. Compared to randomness, it is better to see it with your own eyes." Lin Chen said lightly, "Enter the city."

"...Okay." Xu Yue thought carefully, and then nodded.

Then, the two of them sneaked into the city quietly.

After entering the city, the two directly observed the economy, culture and governance in the city.

After all, these three are also the most able to reflect the ruling philosophy and level of the ruler of a place.

After watching it, the biggest impression given to the two was that there was a very strange feeling.

First, it was the economy.

The two roughly observed the city and found that there was not enough gold, silver and copper in the city, but grain was used as the main trading object, that is, the gold standard was changed to the grain standard.

However, the trading method in the city did make the two feel a little strange.

First, the farmers outside the city harvested the rice fields and gathered them into grain piles. The people of Taipingdao counted them and got an accurate data, and then all the grain... was taken away?

The farmer whose grain was taken away only got a data, for example, 500 kilograms of grain, 300 kilograms of which could be freely disposed of, but the problem was that the grain was not left to the farmer, but was taken away, and the latter did not say anything.

When the farmer went to the city to consume, he did not bring grain or gold and silver, but directly said a number in front of the stall. Then, I don’t know what happened, he took the goods away directly, and the vendors didn’t say anything.

At mealtime, the crowd actually went directly into the granary of the Taiping Dao and took away the food without any obstruction.

"No, in this city, people trust each other so much?!" Xu Yue was stunned.

You know, for people in troubled times, food is the most important thing.

But he found that whether it was the people of the Taiping Dao or the people they governed, they seemed to have no precautions at all.

It can be said that whoever needs it, they will take it as they please, and no one even embezzles or keeps it for private use. It seems that the city takes what is needed, and everyone seems to have extremely high morals.

Xu Yue pays attention to the lives of the people in the city.

Lin Chen, however, looked at the area where the Taiping Dao manufactured items.

"Assembly line? And... Gu worm technology?!" Lin Chen looked at the scene in front of him and was slightly surprised.

According to common sense in ancient times, a large number of items, whether military equipment or clothing... were mostly made by craftsmen themselves.

But now in Taiping Dao, it seems that fixed standards have been formulated for each item, and the production steps are divided and completed by different people, eventually forming a series of streamlined work lines.

Of course, this is not enough to surprise Lin Chen. What surprised him was the other party's application of Gu worm technology.

For example, using the method of Gu worms to carry water to form clouds to create celestial phenomena, using insect acid to corrode hard stones to improve the land, and even deep processing his minerals to remove impurities, or using Gu worms to enter the human body to remove diseases...

'Although it is only a prototype, if it continues to develop, it will have the meaning of [Micro Intelligent Nano Cluster Factory]. It can be used not only in materials science and forging, but also in biology, medicine and even chemistry. This... Maybe because of the limitations of the times, some things cannot be seen clearly, but the wisdom of the ancients seems to be not to be underestimated...'

It is difficult to sense the existence of these Gu worms when observing from the sky. After Lin Chen observed closely, he found that the other party had actually walked out of such a path.

"I was thinking, if I encounter such a big project in the future, how to transform the industrialization of the previous life into the appearance of cultivating immortals... I originally wanted to try the puppet technique, but now it seems that the method of poisonous insects may also be a good way..."

After retracting the thoughts in their minds, the two continued to observe, and the next thing was culture.

Sure enough, as they said outside the city, under the rule of Taiping Dao, mathematics is particularly respected.

What you study in school is not etiquette, classics, or documents, but all mathematics.

Whether they are common people or poor families, all those with rational talents have devoted themselves to mathematics.

They are constantly researching and discussing things, ranging from specific items, to the layout of the city, to the actual quantity of food, weapons and other objects, to astronomical phenomena, humanities, geography...

They are all trying to use mathematics to build a standard mathematical model for planning.

It feels to Lin Chen that Taipingdao wants to cultivate a group of people who can transform the changes in all things into specific mathematical laws!

After such continuous discussions, some basic theories have been repeatedly confirmed, and basic advanced algorithms are slowly taking shape!

‘Is this using the wisdom of all living beings to advance the process of mathematics and iterate algorithms? ’

‘The foundation of science cannot be separated from mathematics. Only by regularizing everything can we find a repeatable path. ’

'Originally, the reason why I was unwilling to establish and manage forces personally was because a group of underworld immortal cultivators who only knew how to prey on the weak could not provide any useful help other than becoming my experimental materials... However, if it were these people... '

For some reason, Lin Chen came up with this idea inexplicably when he saw this scene in front of him.

His current strength is low, nothing like that. But as his strength becomes stronger, his research on the nature of spiritual energy and the exploration of the laws of the world become more and more in-depth. It is not impossible to rely on him alone, but it will involve a lot of energy.

If there is a force that can help, maybe it is also a good choice...

"Brother Lin, I am becoming more and more interested in the high-level officials of Taiping Dao. Why don't we go to the government offices in this city to have a look."

Xu Yue doesn't understand mathematics, and he can't see anything, so now he is more concerned about the rulers behind it, that is, the senior officials of Taiping Dao.

"Okay, let's go." Lin Chen glanced at him, nodded, and then the two of them ran directly to the city center.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the high-rise residence of Taiping Road, which was also the only defensive place in the city.

Of course, this didn't stop the two of them, and they quickly sneaked in.

Bypassing the heavy defenses and walking through the courtyard and pavilions, they arrived at the center, the largest hall.

"Let's just take a look. What kind of heroes are the high-level officials of Taiping Dao, who can actually create such a grand scene in such an arid place like Qingzhou?" Xu Yue said in a low voice, while looking at this huge building with curious eyes. Looking inside the palace.

But the next moment, the scene in the palace made him stay in place.

Because there are no extra decorations, tables and chairs in the main hall, but an unprecedented huge altar.

On top of the altar, a naked man wearing a yellow scarf was lying.

I saw them lying flat on the ground one by one, their stomachs trembling slightly. In Xu Yue's aura, Gu worms flew out of their bodies, and finally formed a series of talismans.

And this talisman is exactly what people from Taiping Dao outside Huangtian City use to make talisman water!

"Are they parasitizing Gu insects into all the people in the city?!" Xu Yue's face changed drastically. Before he could react, a voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

"Welcome two fellow Taoists to my Taiping Dao."

The violent fluctuations in Xu Yue's mood caused the changes in Gang Qi, which made the people of Taiping Road aware of their location!

Lin Chen, on the other hand, turned around calmly and looked at the person in front of him with an incomprehensible expression.

Because the person in front of him was none other than the Taiping Taoist in his intelligence, and he was also the young man in black he met in the ruined temple and Jiangling City in the past years - Xiao Wu!
