So many of them swarmed forward, and immortals have their limits after all. No matter how ferocious the demon is, it must abide by the rules and principles of the human world. It is impossible to have unlimited mana, and it is impossible to kill them all before the mana is exhausted.
As for death, they are not afraid of death after having the sacred promise of the immortals and Buddhas in the upper world.
As for the matter of not believing in the words of immortals, Buddhas and gods, in their realm, every word and deed is cause and effect, and the fate is determined in the dark. If they break the contract, there will be backlash in the future.
However, despite their confidence, several people were still frightened by the weather in the southern wilderness.
Therefore, a few people found a direction and went directly to the nearest village. They also used a cover-up trick to enter the village.
With the power of human immortals, it cannot confuse nobles who carry a lot of Qi, nor can it confuse officials who are protected by dynasty Qi, but it is more than enough to confuse some ordinary villagers.
There are a lot of people in this village. It is the slack time for farming, but there are almost no people in every house.
As I walked further inside, I could finally hear the sound of people. It was a large group of men gathered together, mostly in their prime. These people were squatting obediently in a recently built large house. But he was listening to the lecture of a young man above.
But the content of the story is not about the scriptures of sages, but about how the land should be planted.
Teaching a group of farmers how to farm does sound a bit magical, but the reality is that farming in this era depends entirely on what they have learned over a long period of time. Most of the experience passed down is passed down from father to son, and there is no unified The standard is shown on the outside, that is, everyone's planting method is different. Whether it is watering, fertilizing or weeding, it seems that the good and the bad are uneven, and the final yield also has a huge difference.
The young man giving the lecture is an agricultural official, and he is not just the kind who can only talk on paper. What he teaches is not only how to farm, but also how to compost, how to prevent pests, how to improve soil fertility, and various new agricultural tools. The use of trench excavation and arrangement...
All kinds of things.
In the past, the development of tools was actually very slow. Even if there were inventions and innovations, unless you met a king with a pioneering and enterprising spirit, if you met a conservative king, if you really invented an invention, you could double the food output, or It is a tool that saves half of the manpower. There is a high probability that instead of getting credit, the nine tribes will be directly killed.
For the monarch of the feudal dynasty, the most important goal is never to make the people rich and every household to have food surplus, but to maintain the rule of the court, and stability always ranks first.
And if the output of grain is doubled, it means that the people no longer have to work hard to survive and have spare power. Once the spare power is available, it is easy to think of other things, which is not conducive to the rule of the court.
And if there is a tool that saves half of the manpower, the imperial court in the past used labor to consume the excess manpower, leaving people with no time to think about it, so as to directly prevent the emergence of chaos. Now there is suddenly half more manpower. If it cannot be consumed, After all, it undoubtedly planted the seeds for disaster.
At the same time, the fundamental purpose of controlling the spread of knowledge and setting a higher threshold for reading and literacy is to maintain rule.
Cows and horses don't know that they are cows and horses, so they can endure hardships and will feel that they didn't work hard enough until they die. But if you know it, one day it will definitely be the opposite.
"As for this farm tool, someone actually made something similar to it more than five hundred years ago. Later, it was reported to the court and six tribes were annihilated. The court said that it had evil intentions."
Taoist Dongyue glanced at some things hanging in the house and said calmly.
"In this world, stability can only be achieved if there is enough food. If there is too much food, it will not be eaten all, but the grain will be cheap and the farmers will be hurt. This is the way to death!"
While talking, several people continued to walk inside.
Another dozen steps, but it was a bigger house. Unlike the previous house where people were crowded, in this house, people were very far apart, but what was done inside But all of them were children, the older ones were twelve or twelve years old, and the younger ones were only four or five years old.
But on the stage at the front, there was an old man teaching children how to read and digit.
With one teacher and more than a hundred children, the conditions are undoubtedly very difficult, but in the current situation in Southern Wilderness, it is already very difficult to have one teacher teaching in a village.
After all, the literati of this era always have an inexplicable arrogance, and most of them disdain the company of ordinary people, especially mud-legged and poor people, who will feel bad luck if they get close to them.
These scholars are born to think that everything is inferior except for reading, so they look down on people who do not read.
Teaching ordinary people how to read and write is considered an insult by these people.
Of course, that was all in the past. No matter how noble a person is, he has to kneel down in front of guns.
For those who don't obey Wang Hua, Zhao Cheng will directly send them to mines and do death labor, that is, the kind of people who will die in their lifetime. There will be no real daylight. When they figure it out, they will be free.
In this case, the most stubborn scholar persisted for ten days, while others were just stubborn. The fastest was half a day, the slow was three days, and they couldn't hold on anymore.
The so-called literary character is a joke.
And later on, if they are not careful when teaching people and are reported to have hidden secrets, then they will go back and continue mining.
If it happens three times in a row, there's no need to think about it anymore.
It was precisely because of such strict rules that Nanhuang was able to achieve this and let words go to the countryside.
"How courageous to open up the wisdom of all living beings. What on earth does this devil want to do?!"
"When the people's wisdom is enlightened, there will be endless disasters. At that time, everyone will fight for the crossing and conquer each other. That is true. All living beings are like demons, and the heaven and earth will end!"
Taoist Shengkong's expression changed.
The Taoists of this era are detached themselves and feed off the energy of all living beings. Few of them have true compassion. Instead, they regard all living beings as pigs and dogs.
And if pigs and dogs become smarter, it will be difficult to fool them, and they will not be able to be grateful for some small favors and have their energy stolen by them.
In a sense, the Taoists now have the same stance as the feudal court on the matter of enlightening people's wisdom.
If everyone is really smart, even if the nobles can temporarily guarantee that their descendants will still be nobles, what about after three, four, and five generations? !
The larger the base number, the higher the probability of monsters appearing.
Indeed, there is no rich and powerful house that cannot fail.
But the people are not smart enough. Relying on the leadership brought by knowledge monopoly, their wealth can last for more than ten generations or even more. But after it is opened, it will only last for a few generations at most.
The same is true for the imperial court.
Now that we are all smart, we naturally have more resistance.
Therefore, Taoist Shengkong will change his color.
This move is not only digging the foundation of the imperial court, but also digging the foundation of Taoists.
Thinking of this, his murderous intention became even more intense.
Later, a few people continued inside and saw someone teaching women how to use new machines to weave cloth and how to raise silkworms and grow mulberries on a large scale. They also saw the village militia practicing in the open space.
Seeing this, the immortals became even more frightened.
With a little knowledge, there is such a scene now. If this happens in a few years, will it be okay? !
Therefore, after looking around, several immortals rushed towards Yingtian City without hesitation.
Destroy the demon! The demon must be exterminated as soon as possible!
As for that, under normal circumstances, if you want to enter the Southern Wilderness, you must first pass through Yingtian City, but for a few human immortals, it is just a matter of climbing over the mountains and bypassing this pass.
Since they were walking in a straight line, the point where they entered the Southern Wilderness was not where Yingtian City was located.
