Shen Yue kept frowning while listening to Nuan Yu's explanation.

He knew that Nuanyu would not lie to him at this time, but he heard too many unreasonable things in the narrative.

Ishida Hideko glanced at Shen Yue and said, "Do you hear something is wrong?"

Shen Yue nodded and muttered: "Let Nuanyu continue talking first."

Before Nuan Yu could speak, Shen Yue added, "Nuan Yu, the paradise you are talking about is not a place where people go after death, but a place of comfort?"

Nuanyu nodded and said: "Yes, it is not a place of fantasy after death, but a truly comfortable place. I have witnessed the conditions of the people there with my own eyes. The people there no longer have to do tedious work and can enjoy the best life every day! "

Hideko Ishida said lightly: "That's just another way of raising pigs."

"Raise pigs?" Nuanyu's voice trembled slightly.

Hideko Ishida asked: "Isn't it raising pigs? Let the pigs be ignorant and desireless, thinking that is life. In fact, there is no difference between the two kinds of life."

Shen Yue remained silent.

What Hideko Ishida said is spicy, but isn’t it a fact?

Life is like a dog, happiness is like a pig. Many people have gone from running around for a bite of food to not having to worry about food and daily life. They have experienced the transformation from dogs to pigs, but how much smarter are their behaviors than pigs and dogs?

Blindly following a rule in the hope of obtaining eternal security and comfort, but you cannot avoid the final blow!

The two kinds of life in Nuanyu World are the life of a miserable dog and the life of a happy pig!

Hideko Ishida revealed the essence in one word.

Nuan Yu was not too excited, and just said: "You are right. But... I naturally did not have such a high level of awareness at that time. Human beings in the world where I live have always longed for a life in heaven."

Shen Yue suddenly said: "This is the rule of saints! Does the King of Nine Provinces think he is a saint?"

Ishida Hideko murmured: "It seems like this."

From Hideko Ishida's four words "ignorance and no desire", Shen Yue can easily think of a few words from Laozi's "Tao Te Ching".

If you do not value the virtuous, the people will not fight; if you do not value hard-to-find goods, the people will not steal; if you do not see the desirable, the people will not be confused.

In Lao Tzu's view, the core of the sage's rule is to treat the people he leads with an "open mind and a solid heart, and a weak will and strong bones."

Therefore, Lao Tzu also said that the rule of saints always makes the people ignorant and desireless, so that the wise do not dare to do anything. If you do nothing, everything will be governed.

Later generations often have a lot of discussions because of this passage of Lao Tzu. Some people think that Lao Tzu is a sage and naturally have a brilliant moral interpretation of what Lao Tzu said about "making people ignorant and without desires." However, those who attack Lao Tzu think that I am playing something because of these words. With the policy of obscuring the people, you keep the people in a state of ignorance and only believe in what your rulers say. What is that other than obscuring the people?

But the fact is that Lao Tzu only revealed the essence of the rule of saints. Lao Tzu also disdains saints. Otherwise, he would not have said in the "Tao Te Ching" that abandoning wisdom and abandoning saints will benefit the people a hundred times; abandoning benevolence and righteousness will restore filial piety and kindness to the people. these remarks.

The rule of saints is also a kind of rule, and it is on the same level as the state apparatus.

When the relatives are at odds, there is filial piety and kindness; when the country is in chaos, there are loyal ministers...

When you start to emphasize the so-called filial piety, kindness and loyalty, it means that there is already a big problem in this society. When you emphasize the rule of saints, it only means that the world has become hypocritical and ugly.

Therefore, in Laozi's eyes, the so-called sage's rule is only fifty steps or a hundred steps different from conventional rule. But in Laozi's eyes, being able to achieve sage's rule is considered rare and valuable, just like in practice, if you do It’s not as good as the four jhanas and eight concentration, but it’s pretty good if you can achieve the definition of desire.

Progress is better than regression.

As for the theory of "stimulating production through consumption" developed by later generations from Lao Mi, the practice of filling the world with desires is a world away from the rule of saints.

If I were to come to this world, I would definitely shake my head and say that this world is hopeless.

The King of Kyushu adopts the rule of a near-sage!

He looks extremely cruel, but he does his best to make the human beings who belong to him pure and ignorant. What is his purpose?

Nuan Yu was very smart, and of course she could understand the implication of Shen Yue's words. She laughed at herself: "It turns out that I have always been in the rule of a saint. But if the rule of a saint is like this..."

Isn't that a huge disappointment?

Nuanyu did not continue on this topic, but just sighed softly, "I yearned for heaven at that time, the same yearning as my father. Our father and daughter's life purpose became to work hard and live a well-behaved life until we enter heaven. moment.”

Looking at Shen Yue, Nuan Yu murmured: "It's very sad, isn't it?"

Shen Yue replied soberly: "In this world we live in, aren't there tens of thousands of people who think the same way?"

Retire early and enter a paradise-like environment, where you no longer have to worry about any pressure and live a comfortable and worry-free life. Isn’t this the idea of ​​​​many workers and even rich people?

This is just entering another round of reincarnation, which is also a common misconception among people in the world.

You really do nothing and get bored very quickly, because even if you are playing the most novel game, it will feel boring due to the repetition of the game.

Therefore, practice is definitely not empty and does nothing. On the contrary, practice requires great perseverance to persist in some actions.

Nuan Yu smiled sadly, "We are no different from ordinary people." Then he recalled: "I didn't have to work hard at that time, so I had time to read and understand the world, but my memory at that time..."

She showed a sense of caution and said slowly: "My memory was very poor at that time, and I would soon forget what I read, but after all, I remembered the pleasure of reading at the moment, and I liked reading very much. This is the so-called "again" It’s easy to learn how to cook.”

Ishida Hideko said indifferently: "But you certainly don't think so now?"

Nuan Yu was silent for a while and finally said: "Yes, think about it now, I was actually similar to Li Yawei in the dark world at that time, and my memory was constantly being purged!"

Mentioning Li Yawei again, she regained her composure.

Shen Yue's pupils shrank slightly.

He also thought about the possibility that Nuan Yu said. Now Nuan Yu's memory can definitely be described as amazing. She is not a forgetful person. The reason why she forgets is because her memory is cleaned every day?

"Maybe this is why your father reminds you every day?" Shen Yue finally said.

Nuan Yu lowered her head and said after a long time: "The authorities are confused, but those onlookers know clearly. There are many things that we, who are ignorant, cannot understand. Only by jumping out can we truly understand."

Looking at Shen Yue, Nuan Yu said slowly: "Yes, I also thought about it later. The reason why my father reminds me every day is not to be cautious, but because he knows that my memory is being cleaned."

Shen Yue felt a little cold in his heart.

"He knew this fact, but he didn't change it!"

Nuan Yu whispered: "After I escaped from the world I belonged to, I became extremely indifferent because of my unusual disgust with my father's behavior."

Shen Yue looked at Nuan Yu and said softly: "But you clearly understand now that he may just want to protect you when he does that."

He could hear the trembling in Nuan Yu's words, and he understood why Nuan Yu lowered her head.
