Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs! The saint is unkind and treats the common people as stupid dogs.
This sentence comes from the fifth chapter of Laozi's ancient work: the first verse at the beginning of the Tao Te Ching.
Because it is so mysterious, countless literati and scholars have been arguing over this sentence for thousands of years since the Tao Te Ching was published, trying to thoroughly understand the sage's thoughts.
But there was no choice but to argue, but there was never a clear explanation that could convince the public!
At the end of the fight, the only thing that is certain is: God is indeed not kind!
In other words, God has no emotions or will of its own at all.
It will not be affected by any external objects, let alone interfere with anyone or anything!
The so-called "God has feelings" and "God has eyes" are just people's wishful thinking, forcibly connecting some natural situations with what happens in the world in order to satisfy their worship of that illusory existence.
Therefore, although countless facts have proven: God will not help people solve any problems! But when people encounter unsolvable problems, they still habitually pray to God.
On the bank of the river, as soon as the first person prayed, other officials and people also prostrated themselves on the muddy ground. Some were furious, while others burst into tears!
In front of them, the ice floes on the river collided with each other, making rumbling sounds from time to time, as if they were responding to people's prayers, and also seemed to be laughing at their incompetence.
Cui Renshi did not kneel down this time.
Because before this, he had devoutly bowed to the sky and the saint countless times, but what he got in exchange was always disappointment again and again!
So, he won’t kneel now!
"Pass my order! Let Minzhuang assemble immediately! Dig embankments and release water!" With a sad laugh, Master Cui Ren used all his strength to issue this order!
Immediately afterwards, I saw him swaying a few times, and then fell straight back!
"grown ups!"
"The governor!"
In the blur, someone rushed over to help him, and someone also exclaimed!
Further away, there seems to be the sound of fast horse hooves, running towards here!
"Has His Majesty's edict of rebuke arrived?"
In the remaining consciousness, Master Cui Ren thought this, but he was no longer worried! Because as soon as the order to dig the embankment came out, his fate was destined to be nailed down in history and be reviled by thousands of people! Compared with this, being scolded by His Majesty, what does it mean?
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Just when Master Cui Ren was completely unconscious, a fast horse suddenly came running from a distance! On the back of a fast horse, Jia waved his whip, roared and rushed towards the people on the river beach.
In fact, there was no need for him to yell. Seeing him running wildly, the officials and the people had already stepped aside and watched helplessly as he rushed past!
"The Governor is here!"
Finally, the fast horse stopped at the place where most people gathered. On the horse's back, Jia Yi grabbed the reins tightly and shouted to those people.
"Who are you?!" Dong Xingshu, the deputy governor of the governor, was shocked and angry when he saw Jiayi, an uninvited guest. He jumped up and shouted at him!
"Me?" Jiayi frowned and shouted again: "I am appointed by Xiaohou of Sanyuan County! May I ask, is the governor of Luoyang City here?"
"Hiss... Sanyuan County, Xiaohou?"
Just one sentence! With just one sentence, A made the crowd that seemed noisy just now quiet down immediately!
At this moment, everyone was either shocked or horrified, their eyes fixed on Jiayi! Those countless gazes even stared at the BMW under Jia Yi in fear. He kicked his hooves and took two steps back!
This is not to blame for the fuss made by the people around you. In fact, in Luoyang, you don’t need to know who the county magistrate is, who the governor is, or even who the emperor is! But the only thing I have to know is who Xiaohou is in Sanyuan County!
Here, even a three-year-old child knows that there is a god in the Tang Dynasty who can summon thunder!
Do not believe? If you don’t believe me, go check out the North City Gate! The indelible traces of the First World War still remain there!
"Is that Xiao Hou who used his miracles to fend off a hundred thousand troops under the city? Is he here?"
In the crowd, I don’t know who shouted this first! Then I saw countless officials suddenly wake up! Turning around suddenly, countless people knelt down towards Jia Yi: "Please beg Xiaohou to show mercy! Save Luoyang City!!!"
"Please beg Xiaohou to have mercy and save Luoyang City!"
Countless whimpers and sounds of fear were mixed together, even covering up the heart-wrenching sound of ice floes rolling and colliding on the river!
Rao Shijia has followed Xiao Han for many years and has seen many strong winds and waves. Seeing this scene now, he panicked and quickly drove his horse to one side to avoid it: "The Marquis is behind! I am not the Marquis! I am just Fight the one standing in front!”
"Master Marquis is behind you?" When the officials heard Jia Yi's words, they did not get up. They were still kneeling in the muddy water, but they stretched their necks and looked behind Jia Yi!
There, several fast horses were galloping towards it.
"what happened!"
When Xiao Han, who was one step behind, rushed to Jiayi's side, the first thing he saw was the countless officials and people kneeling on the river beach, and the extremely fiery eyes in their eyes.
"Xiao Hou! Save our Luoyang City!"
"Xiao Hou! Only you can save our family!"
"Stop! Stop! Stop talking!"
As soon as Wuyong Jia answered, countless voices came from all directions, so shocked that Xiao Han couldn't hear what they were saying. He could only quickly wave his hands to stop those people, and then pointed at the official in red robe: "You! You Tell me, what’s going on now!”
The person targeted by Xiao Han was none other than Master Cui Ren’s deputy, Dong Xingshu!
Of course, this is not because Xiao Hanhui has a good eye for people and picked him out of so many people at once, but among so many people, he is the only one wearing the red robe that symbolizes a senior official!
Although his red robe was covered with mud spots and the hem was almost completely covered in mud, it was still so eye-catching among the surrounding low-level official robes made of coarse linen and green mantises that Xiao Han wanted to see Without him, it would be difficult to do it.
"Master Hou! Now the ice wall in front has been completely silted up! Governor Cui just ordered people to dig up the river embankment upstream..."
Dong Xingshu was chosen by Xiao Han, but there was no time to get excited! He just took a few steps forward and briefly recounted the current situation to Xiao Han.
"Dig a dike?"
After hearing Dong Xingshu's words, Xiao Han's heart tightened at first, and then he immediately interrupted him and asked: "When was the order given? Has it been dug out yet?"
"Not yet!" Even though Dong Xingshu dared to scold Jia Yi in front of him, when he was in front of Xiao Han, he immediately acted like a mouse after seeing a cat. He was so honest that it made people feel distressed.
