Chapter 936: We dont understand, and we dont dare to ask
After confirming the attitude of the Yao people, Changtian opened the coordinate connection between Feilai Peak and [Nanzhan Buzhou].
However, because the two places are too far apart and need to cross the border, the ultra-long-distance portal also has a lot of risks. It is even more difficult to maintain it for a long time. It is unknown when it will collapse and be damaged.
Therefore, the monks need to transit through [Western Paradise] to get here, but the Buddhist gods do not have to pay any fees.
The Emperor of the Sun Palace will take charge of the Buddhist Kingdom as usual.
What Changtian needs to do is to maintain the relationship with Mount Sumeru, get support from Medicine Buddha, and negotiate with external gods.
He will try to find civilizations that are about to be destroyed, or worlds that are in war.
After confirmation, Zengtian will go to the local area to save the dead, gain the power of faith, and convert the local [Xili Duo] and [Jiu Pantu] to Buddhism, becoming the population and Buddhist soldiers of Nanzhan Buzhou.
This is the division of labor in Nanzhan Continent, with the emperor growing up outside and the emperor in the sun palace taking charge inside.
Nanzhanbuzhou is a complete world, far larger than an ordinary divine kingdom, with hundreds of millions of people, and a stable social order and cultural tradition. It is not easy to manage this Buddhist kingdom well.
Soon after, the first group of monks came out of Feilai Peak and walked all the way from the desert to Shacheng, where they had their first contact with the Yao people.
Zengtian observed secretly.
The robes worn by the monks, the unique leggings and cloth shoes on their feet, the rosary beads hanging in their hands and necks, and their monastic postures with their hands clasped in bows and chanting Buddhist verses all aroused imitation by local people.
People in Shacheng soon became popular about wearing rosary beads. Most of them wrapped them around their hands, including various types of wooden beads, glass and glazed beads, and gemstone beads. After playing with rosary beads, they paired them with monks' robes.
It's just that the monks' robes have been improved by the people of Shacheng and turned into a different look. The collars and cuffs of the large gray monks' robes will be printed with various striped embroidery decorations. Gradually, people are keen on printing on monks' robes.
You can see people of all ethnic groups wearing monk's robes and coats everywhere on the streets of Shacheng. On their backs are printed Buddhist verses such as "My Buddha is compassionate", "Form is empty" or "All dharmas have no self, and their cessation is bliss."
Or there are various forms of Buddha statues, and some even have scriptures printed all over the monks' robes.
People wear all kinds of monk robes, some with crystal glasses and colorfully dyed hair. This has become a trend symbol of a new culture, and Shacheng people enjoy it endlessly.
Slimold sighed: "The residents of Shacheng really like the culture of Nanzhan Buzhou."
Zeng Tian responded.
He noticed that Nanzhan tribe was also continuously influenced by Yao culture.
The monks originally lived a peaceful and slow-paced life, but after arriving here, after spending the initial period of curiosity and lectures, they became very interested in learning and understanding various things about the Yao civilization.
Their first interest was in libraries.
There are a large collection of books in the Shacheng Library. Those books are open to everyone for free. They include history, mythology, theology, mathematics, technology, language, biology, elemental science, magic talismanology... there are many, many types, and a lot of precious knowledge for everyone.
A citizen unfolds.
There were many ragged people inside, sitting on the floor reading books, but the library administrator did not expel them.
This scene surprised Changzhangtian: "Senior Yao Shen is really amazing."
Generally speaking, the rulers of civilization will set limits and block knowledge.
This is to facilitate the management of the people.
The more knowledge you have, the more you will understand the cold reality of the operation of the entire world. A large number of civilians are the bottom gear in the operation of the Kingdom of God. They will be fixed in their positions throughout their lives, with almost no hope of change.
Just like an architect building a house, he will tamp the foundation firmly and will not allow the stones or wood in the foundation to move up and become walls or even pillars, let alone a high-rise roof.
Without a large number of civilians with stable order, it would be difficult for any divine country or civilization to maintain long-term stability.
The promotion path set by the gods in the secular world is knowledge.
Only by mastering knowledge can people understand the way the world works through this entry point, so as to change it in the possible direction.
Without knowledge, even if a person's life is not good, he will not understand why this is the case or how to change his destiny.
He would just sigh and say: What can be done? There is nothing we can do these days.
Knowledge can help civilians understand the relationship between individual destiny and the order of the Kingdom of God, help them find the direction they can move forward, and try their best to change their destiny, even if it is just a little better.
But even so, there are still very few people who can get what they want in the end.
A large number of frustrated people who have mastered knowledge will join forces intentionally or unintentionally to affect the current order through various methods. They will affect a large number of civilians, thus causing turmoil and chaos in the entire Kingdom of God.
The most troublesome thing is that even if this group of people are pacified or executed, there will be others who come after them.
When the growth genius took over [Nanzhan Buzhou], he had great ambitions and wanted to break out of this secular cycle.
Together with the Emperor of the Sun, he encouraged the large-scale distribution of books and the construction of academies and monastic colleges in various places. He advocated that all people improve various knowledge, mainly Buddhism, in order to promote the progress of civilization throughout the southern continent and expand external influence.
force.
After thirty years of trial practice, this resulted in continued chaos in Nanzhan Province and uprisings and riots in various places.
The monks and the people complained bitterly about the oppression and plundering of everyone in the monasteries, the bullying of superiors and the inferiors, the inaction and brutal violence in response to natural and man-made disasters. The temples spent a lot of resources and energy on suppressing frequent rebellions and resistance.
Secular conflicts are becoming more and more acute, with all parties confronting and hostile to each other, and the order of the Buddhist country is further leaning towards chaos.
Chang Tian worked hard for this, but when he got such a result, he couldn't help but feel confused and lost.
He asked the Emperor of the Sun Palace: "It is not wrong for monks and people to pursue a better life and status and to expose injustice and oppression. It is also not wrong for temples in various places to maintain secular order and implement my orders and will..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Am I wrong to do this?"
The Emperor of the Sun Palace said softly: "Master Tian Wangzun, you are not wrong. This matter may be complex or complicated. After all, everyone in the world is in charge of the affairs of the world, but it may be simple or simple, it just depends on which side you stand on. As long as you determine your position, then
Just implement it according to your position, there is no perfect method in the world."
In the end, Changtian did not have the courage to continue to change. He returned to the previous tradition and restored the Buddhist system in which the previously established temples had full jurisdiction over various regions. After several years of turmoil, Nanzhan Buzhou gradually regained its tranquility.
Knowledge was blocked again, and the monks returned to their simple lives.
The only thing that Changtian can do is to come regularly to talk to them about Buddhism and explain part of his knowledge.
Although he didn't know what this meant.
Is it guilt compensation or a trace of fantasy?
He doesn't know.
…
The current social situation of the Yao people reminds Changtian of his own miserable past.
He is the master of Nanzhan Buzhou, but there are things he cannot do.
He couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Slimold, isn't Senior Yao worried that this will make it difficult to govern the world? Or is there any special method?"
The god of the Yao people held a cane with both hands and looked at the library in front: "I was also worried about this. Once people master the knowledge, they will start to question it. From the perspective of the ruler, it is very difficult to manage. At that time, I also
I can’t imagine how to resolve this irreducible contradiction.”
"However, Lord Yao never cares about this. He only wants the Yao people to live a better life."
Slimud laughed: "Lord Yao God told us these things of God, treat every Yao people well, don't think too much. They are all children of the Yao people, no matter they stay at home and live in vain, or they are deviant,
Whether you covet family property or run away from home, these are all normal things because different people have different ideas."
"I'm not afraid of your jokes. Among the Yao people, there are not only those who are trying to find and track Lord Yao, but also staunch atheists, as well as theological scholars who question the existence of Lord Yao. There are quite a few of them..."
Zeng Tian was shocked: "Outrageous..."
"This is the Yao tribe." The other party's shoulders shook slightly, and he couldn't help laughing: "Lord Yao Shen encouraged them, thinking that the field of gods is also a promising research direction... I don't understand either, and I don't dare to ask."
"And now, I slowly understand."
The smile on the corner of Slimod's mouth gradually disappeared: "Lord Yaoshen wants to go in another direction, so that everyone can receive a good enough education, obtain basic material security, let them know the basis and position of their existence, and transform this
Everything is clearly told to them so that they will no longer be easily confused and deceived, nor will they be easily instigated and deceived, nor will they become the victims of some ambitious people's struggle for power and gain."
"It has been proven in the past that common people can be ruled better if they remain stupid. Now what Yao God has to do is to make them smart enough and master the knowledge, then they don't need to be ruled and governed, they know what they should be
do what."
"This is what the Yao people are trying to do. Of course this is a very difficult road, but I am deeply honored to be a part of it."
Zhang Changtian was very excited when he heard this: "This... is really amazing."
Suddenly, he felt a sense of shame in his heart.
It turns out that on this road, seniors like Yao Shen had been digging mountains and building bridges for a long time.
I am still too weak.
"You are already very powerful."
Slimaud said softly: "Originally, I thought that Buddhist countries tend to be conservative and would be difficult to accept any transformation and appropriation of Buddhist culture from the outside world."
"But the monks and people in Nanzhan Buzhou have shown an extremely open and tolerant attitude. They may not be as knowledgeable as the Yao people, but they have a deep understanding of Buddhism and can integrate it with simple experiences in life.
As one body, that kind of happy-go-lucky and contented life attitude is really wonderful."
"Without an open and tolerant Buddhist god, there would be no such followers."
"Shacheng is really lucky to be able to communicate with Nanzhan Buzhou on a secular level this time." The other party nodded.
Zhang Changtian held the sword with one hand and waved the other hand: "To be honest, I didn't do much. It's the Emperor Sun Palace who manages the business well."
"You are humble."
Slemod said seriously: "The civilization of the Kingdom of God is the embodiment of the temperament and character of a god, just like the diverse tolerance and adventurous spirit of the Yao people, which originated from Lord Yao, and the optimism and acceptance of the people of Nanzhan tribe,
Also from your influence.”
After receiving the sincere praise from the Yao gods, Changtian couldn't help but raise his head and chest, and the sword on his shoulders seemed to be sharper.
In fact, Nanzhan tribe was greatly influenced by the Yao people.
The library is just the beginning. The books inside are written in the languages of various ethnic groups of the Yao people, but there are also borrowers who are illiterate or foreign civilizations, so there are also special illustrated versions. Although the amount of information is much smaller, it is enough to understand.
Those core key knowledge.
The monks and the people enjoyed it very much and never wanted to leave.
They spontaneously began to learn the Yao characters and language. With the help of the local special props [Xingnao Mint] and [Blast Furnace Mead], many of them quickly mastered the basic local vocabulary.
Soon, not only could the monks independently read "Shachengdi Daily" and "Ben Daily" to learn about the latest developments in other worlds, but they were also obsessed with the Yao people's currently popular Star Vision.
You only need to hold the prop [Wind Mother] to project pictures into the air, and see various lifelike sound and picture programs. The monks and the people are simply irresistible.
They like to watch two programs. The first is the popular drama series "Crystal Empire" of the Yao people, which tells the story of the magnificent and difficult living conditions of the gods from the perspective of the Yao people's former enemy Bo God.
The second is a program called "Qitang Jialan", which is a program produced by the Abyss Monks. The Abyss Monks use sitcoms to show the daily practice of the monks, and it has also been loved by a large number of viewers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The monks and the people are extremely obsessed with Star Vision, and these two programs never fail to show up.
"As expected of the famous Yao tribe, it would be great if our Nanzhan tribe also had something like this."
"With star vision, the lectures and debates of many eminent monks can be seen by everyone, and the natural principles of various worlds can be seen... We can also make programs! That's right!"
"But since we can come to the world of the Yao people, we should have a close relationship between King Tianzun and Lord Yao, right? Let's pray together and see if we can ask King Tianzun?"
"Okay, everyone unite!"
"Save the Suffering King Tianzun, your followers sincerely request, please allow Star TV to enter Nanzhan Buzhou, so that we can produce Nanzhan Buzhou programs, and also facilitate the spread of Buddhism and your beliefs..."
…
Zeng Tian is also very excited.
The power of star vision is astonishing, and its influence on the world far exceeds any wonder known to it.
He asked Slimud: "I wonder if it is possible to bring star vision into Nanzhan Continent? This is really a good communication tool."
Slimod looked embarrassed: "Star vision is a specialty of the Yao civilization. It requires the deployment of Yao satellites, the construction of a ripple body, and the use of the wind mother to receive it. I have no power in this area and can only wait for Lord Yao to return.
, please propose it to Lord Yao."
Changtian nodded.
Ten years passed in a blink of an eye.
During this period, a large number of monks entered Shacheng to study and live, and some Yao people also entered Nanzhan tribe. The peaceful and slow-paced life of the monks complemented and balanced the fast-paced and competitive character of the Yao people to a certain extent.
, both parties have benefited a lot.
The only thing that has made little progress is the four stars.
So far, although Changtian has made many attempts to cooperate, I still don’t know what it likes about me.
Every time he thought about this, the ferocious surface of the sun and that weird smile would appear in his mind, which made him feel inexplicably terrifying.
One day, Slemud suddenly told him: "We are finally sure that the four stars like your sword."
"Sword?"
Zhang Changtian looked at the sword he was holding in one hand: "You mean, this sword of wisdom?"
"Yes."
The other party said: "The four stars have very serious troubles, and they hope to use your sword of wisdom to cut off their troubles. When they first saw you, they noticed this sword, so they wanted to make friends with you and borrow your sword."
"
"It's okay, just take it and use it." Zhang Changtian replied generously: "But this is only temporary. It treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and it will breed again soon. Huijian needs to condense its own wisdom in order to contain the troubles with wisdom."
He was secretly relieved, as long as he wasn't targeted.
Not long after borrowing the sword.
Slimud suddenly turned back.
With a smile on his face, He said: "Master Yao oracle, please come with me."
Zhang Changtian quickly adjusted his armor and took a deep breath: "Please lead the way."
