The heaven and the earth are unkind, and regard all things as mutts! The saints are unkind, and regard the common people as mutts.
This sentence comes from Laozi’s ancient work: Chapter 5 of the Tao Te Ching, beginning with the first section.
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 everyone!
At the end of the fight, the only thing that can be determined 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 heaven has feelings and eyes, but it is just people's wishful thinking, forcibly connecting some natural situations with what happens in the world, so as to satisfy their worship of that illusory existence.
Therefore, although countless facts have proven that 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 answering people's prayers, and also seemed to be mocking their incompetence.
Master Cui Ren 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 screamed in surprise!
Farther 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 to history and be reviled by thousands of people!
Compared to that, being scolded by His Majesty, what does it mean?
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Just when Cui Renshi was completely unconscious, a fast horse suddenly ran up from a distance! On the back of the fast horse, Jia Yi waved his whip and roared 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 grasped the reins tightly and shouted at those people.
"Who are you?!" Dong Xingshu, the deputy governor, was shocked and angry when he saw Jiayi, an uninvited guest. He jumped up and shouted angrily at him!
"Me?" Jiayi frowned and shouted again: "I am appointed by Xiaohou of Sanyuan County! May I ask if the governor of Luoyang City is here?"
"Hiss... Sanyuan County, Xiaohou?"
Just one sentence! A used one sentence to make the crowd that seemed noisy just now quiet down immediately!
At this moment, everyone's eyes were either shocked or horrified, all fixed on Jia Yi! Those countless gazes even stared at the BMW under Jia Yi in fear, and he kicked his hooves.
Take two steps back!
This is not to blame for the fuss made by the people around you. In fact, in Luoyang, you can not know who the county magistrate is, you don’t know who the governor is, and you don’t even know who the emperor is! But you can’t help but know who Xiaohou of Sanyuan County is!
Here, even a three-year-old child knows that there is a god in the Tang Dynasty who can summon thunder!
Don’t believe it? If you don’t believe it, go take a look at the North City Gate! The indelible traces of the First World War still remain there!
"Is that Xiao Hou who used miracles to hold off a hundred thousand troops under the city? Is he here?"
In the crowd, I don’t know who shouted these words first! Then I saw countless officials suddenly woke up! Turning around suddenly, countless people knelt down towards Jiayi: "Please show mercy to Xiaohou! Save Luoyang City!
!!”
"Please beg Xiaohou to show 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. When he saw this scene, he panicked for a moment and quickly drove his horse to one side to avoid it: "Master Hou is behind! I am not Master Hou! I am just
The one standing in front of me!"
"Master Marquis is behind you?" When the officials heard Jia Yi's words, they did not get up. They still knelt in the muddy water, but stretched their necks to look 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 Wu Yongjia 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 from 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 dots 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 or 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 blocked! Just now Governor Cui ordered people to dig up the river embankment upstream..."
Dong Xingshu was chosen by Xiao Han, but he had no time to get excited! He only 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, which made people feel heartbroken.
