First of all, it needs to be made clear that Ye Feng was not mocking Mo Ziqing.
Is it a bad person to have "little thoughts"?
Or should we say that good people cannot have "little thoughts"?
If you think that only people with a pure heart and no trace of dirt can be called good people, then I'm sorry, but the good people you think do not exist in this world, not even a single person.
Because humans are all intertwined with good and evil, they must have both good and bad thoughts in their minds. Even if you do good deeds, there must be a simple motive of helping others and "good intentions". Naturally, there will also be some selfish purposes. You can interpret this purpose as "bad intentions".
This is an objective reality. Just like a fish can swim but cannot fly. You can't ask a fish to fly.
Let’s talk about the previous saying “Good things depend on the heart, bad things depend on the actions”.
Take Mo Ziqing's saving lives as an example. From a behavioral point of view, Mo Ziqing's saving behavior is a good thing no matter how you look at it. Well, it depends on your heart. She has "good intentions" of not wanting to see Ye Feng hurt by monsters, but she also has selfish "malice".
As for malicious intent, to put it simply, the family behind Mo Ziqing is now facing a crisis, and Mo Ziqing's identity determines that she cannot stay out of it. She wants to seek strong external help.
The reason why she came to the Warcraft Mountains was because her family lived in seclusion here. She is here for a meeting today. Shortly after leaving the Warcraft Mountains after driving, we were besieged by Warcraft.
Logically speaking, this would not happen in the Warcraft Mountains. Because the monsters here are all territorial. Each of the monsters in the Taiyi Jade Fairyland is the overlord of a place. They will not easily invade other people's territory, let alone leave their own territory to unite to deal with humans, so there must be someone behind this secretly causing trouble. As for the troublemaker, Mo Ziqing already had some clues.
But when they were besieged just now, they saw a huge thunder that reached the sky and the earth, knocking all the monsters to the ground, but they did not receive any harm. This is enough to show that this thunder is exerted by human manipulation. Then that person must be an immortal master, probably someone who can help his family solve problems. As it was his duty, Mo Ziqing naturally wanted to find the expert immediately. This is Mo Ziqing's "bad intention".
So you have to say, if you look at your heart when you do a good deed, and it turns out to be both good and bad intentions, then how should I evaluate and treat the other person?
Then it depends on the proportion of good intentions and bad intentions in the heart. Which one accounts for a greater proportion, you just have to decide which one is bigger.
When a person does a good deed, if good intentions account for a large proportion, then you should confirm that the other person is a kind person who can be friends with. Because for such a person, even if the matter cannot achieve his "bad intention" purpose, the good intentions that dominate the situation still exist, so he will still do good things.
The most typical example is Mo Ziqing. She originally thought that the person who helped her would be an unparalleled powerhouse, but she also thought it was Ye Feng. But she didn't expect that the other party was only in the Nascent Soul realm, so the expert couldn't be him at all, so her little idea of looking for a strong person, that is, "bad intentions" came to nothing with Ye Feng.
In other words, Ye Feng is no longer useful to Mo Ziqing.
However, Mo Ziqing still saved Ye Feng, which shows that kindness and kindness occupy a greater proportion in Mo Ziqing's heart. That's why Ye Feng didn't resist. After all, the other party was determined to save him. If he resisted, he would have to do something small, but if he did something to a kind person, and the other person's kind actions were directed at him, then even if Ye Feng was "ill-moral", he was not so evil.
Of course, by the same token, when a person does something good, if the proportion of bad intentions is greater, then you should be careful and stay as far away from such a person as possible. Because once such a person finds that this matter cannot achieve his "bad intention" purpose, then the good intentions that occupy a small proportion are simply not enough to allow him to continue to continue the good deeds.
The most common example is an old man who is bedridden and admitted to the ICU ward. Children accompany you and show your filial piety.
But when the daily high medical expenses depleted all the old man's remaining savings. In most cases, children quarrel over subsequent medical expenses.
So one second he was a human, the next second he was a ghost, and the demons danced wildly, showing their ugly faces.
After all, the bad intentions of getting more inheritance still account for the vast majority of the good intentions of children caring for their parents. Eighty percent? Ninety percent? Or ninety-nine point nine percent?
An ancient saying goes: There is no filial son in bedside for a long time, and there is no good wife in a house that has been poor for a long time. People are poor and no one cares about them in the busy city, but rich people live in the mountains and have distant relatives.
These are the crystallization of wisdom derived from the experience of ancient people.
As for the ratio of good intentions to bad intentions, Ye Feng could see through it at a glance.
But if you want to say that we don't see through it like Ye Feng, then the ratio of good intentions to bad intentions you mentioned is meaningless at all?
We don’t “see through” it, but we have a memory! If you have been deceived once and then deceived by the same person a second time, should you look for the reason from yourself because you have a short memory? !
The reason why Ye Feng "sees through" is because he lives in the world of immortality where there is intrigue and intrigue. If you are cheated once, you are likely to die without a second chance.
But in reality, aren’t we at least still alive? As long as you are alive, isn't there the possibility of a second chance? So in reality, in this situation, "memory" is equivalent to the importance of Ye Feng's insight in "The Rebellion of Mortal Immortals".
Wang Yangming once said that nothing in the world is better than the human heart. Human hearts have a significant impact on the world.
Regarding the role of affirming people's hearts, Ye Feng's point of view is the same as Wang Yangming's. Specifically, we have talked about it before. The two of them also criticized each other, so we will not discuss it here.
But there is one thing I have to say here, and that is:
The most terrifying thing in the world is that the external objective environment destroys the ratio of good intentions and bad intentions in people's hearts.
For example, the phenomenon of an old man lying on the ground blackmailing someone. We have explained this kind of thing in detail before and will not go into details here. The scary thing about this thing is that the good and evil in people's hearts are not on the same level. Just like a river, good is upstream and evil is downstream. From good to evil, it is like going straight down the river, relaxed and comfortable. But going from evil to good is like sailing against the current, with difficulty every step of the way.
This is also the reason why it is easy to corrupt social atmosphere but difficult to establish a good trend. And changing from bad to good is even more difficult. You fell to the ground and blackmailed someone. After you said, "You didn't hit me, why did you hold me up?"
How many elderly people who really need help will die on the road?
How many people's good intentions will it take to save this little loss of morale?
Thousands of people? Ten thousand people? Or, billions of people!
