"You are all just casual cultivators. Although you have been delayed in cultivating the Tao because of this, you are also not polluted by any sect's atmosphere. This is very gratifying to me. If you have had sect experience, you will know that many
There is a dangerous atmosphere of contempt for the world in the monastic sects, and the strong individual power of the monks has gradually developed a self-centered temperament."
Ye Su said, stood up from sitting cross-legged, patted the dust on his butt, and said helplessly.
The other six people also stood up one after another, thinking deeply about what Ye Su said.
"Human beings are like this. When they become too powerful, they start to become arrogant. This is human nature."
Lin Qinghan said in agreement.
"If you just don't know the so-called arrogance, it will only be viewed as a joke by others, but if you are really arrogant and have the ability to cause damage, it will inevitably bring disaster. For many ascetics in the sect,
Ordinary human beings are like ants, and giant dragons will never care about the life and death of ants. Therefore, for some monks in the sect, even if ordinary people die in thousands, it will not have any impact on them. Because in
In their cognition, they no longer regard ordinary people as human beings."
Ye Su sighed and continued walking towards the village not far ahead with the others.
"Based on this, wouldn't it mean that for thousands of years before modern history, ordinary people have been living in the shadow of ascetics? After all, the national power at that time was completely incomparable to what it is now. The deterrent effect of national force on ascetics
, almost nothing, right?”
Wei Feng frowned and said.
"That is indeed the case, but the speed of information dissemination in that era was also extremely slow. Even if some tragic things happened in some remote areas, it was very easy for the government to block the information, so despite the actual situation in that era
It is much more serious than it is now, but very little information has been handed down. If it were not for the modern industrial revolution, the power that ordinary humans can possess through external technology has become more and more powerful, and it has even become powerful enough to defeat the top of the monastic world.
Even strong people can pose a threat, and this society cannot maintain the stability and tranquility it has now. National force is used to defend against enemies from outside, but it also protects peace within."
As Ye Su was talking, he suddenly remembered something. He turned to look at Shentu Yunyi and asked: "Speaking of which, what happened to the two Raoshan Taoist priests I introduced to our Special Operations Department before? In the Special Operations Department
Are you still used to it? I didn’t see them this time.”
"They happen to be out on missions, so they are not in the headquarters. When they first came here, there was a gap between the two of them and the other people in our special operations, and they seemed to be aloof in the office, but as Wei Wei
With the improvement in strength of Feng and the others, and with the stimulation of Wei Feng and others, the rest of our group also began to break through their own realms on a large scale. The two Taoist priests could not sit still, and slowly began to take the initiative to ask for some executions.
Task. You have prepared the benefits for me in advance, so it is easy for them to make judgments about what is the best choice for them."
Shentu Yunyi said with some admiration: "Ye Chu, your idea is indeed thoughtful. Although those two people are not high-level, their foundation is extremely solid and solid. They also have a very deep understanding of some problems that may arise in the process of cultivating Taoism.
Whenever our people have something they don’t understand, as long as we ask them, they can basically get a satisfactory answer. The staff in the department can improve so quickly, and they have also played a very positive role."
"Well, after all, they are disciples of the sect. They must know more about some things than you wild men. In this way, the questions they answered by other people in the department will also be counted in the merits. The merits will be calculated according to the ordinary merits.
The merit calculation will be doubled. These two people are very important to our Special Operations Department. I can't always stay in the department, so the answers to most of the questions will fall on their shoulders. Therefore, if their realm improves too much,
If they are slow and cannot keep up with the overall rhythm of the department, it will also have an impact on the improvement of the strength of our department. Now that they have begun to integrate into our department, let's set up an instructor position specifically for them."
Ye Su opened his mouth and said that this was originally his purpose of abducting the two Raoshan Taoist priests into the Special Operations Office. Now after listening to Shentu Yunyi's words, his purpose has basically been achieved, and Ye Su is naturally satisfied.
"Yes, Ye Chu."
"You should follow Wei Feng and the others in calling me boss. I'll tell everyone else in the department that I quite like the title boss. It has a bit of a rough and tumble feel to it. Although we are considered a government department, after all, we are relatively
Being independent is too special compared with other departments. There is no need to completely follow the structure and naming conventions of government departments. If they are more sloppy and have a higher degree of freedom, it will be more reasonable to ask them to impose orders and prohibitions like the military at certain times.
.”
"Yes, boss, I understand."
While talking, the group of people had arrived at the village.
Apparently no outsiders come to this village all year round, so the appearance of Ye Su and his party immediately attracted many villagers to come out and watch.
However, from the eyes of these villagers, Ye Su only saw looks of caution and vigilance, without any so-called hospitality.
The knowledge was probably due to the recent disappearance of villagers in the village. Ye Su did not waste time to explain, but took people straight to the house where the missing persons lived.
A total of three people disappeared in this village during this period, two of whom were children under the age of twelve, and one was a nineteen-year-old girl.
When Ye Su arrived at the door of the missing woman's house, there were already forty or fifty villagers following him around.
Seeing Ye Su and the others standing in silence at the door of the missing person's house, an old man stepped out of the crowd, walked directly to Ye Su, and asked in a dialect with a strong accent: "You... are sent by the government
people?"
"Yes, old man, we are here to learn about the disappearance of people in your village."
Ye Su said gently.
Obviously everyone can understand Mandarin. After hearing Ye Su's answer, the vigilance and guarded eyes of those around him suddenly dissipated.
"Hey, some government police came here to investigate before, but they didn't find anything, so they all left. Are you... not the police?"
The old man looked at Ye Su suspiciously and asked.
"Old man, we are from the secret department. The disappearance of people in your village is not a normal population crime, so it has been handed over to us. Don't worry, we will definitely give you an explanation."
Ye Su explained patiently.
The old man suddenly realized that although he didn't know what the secret department meant, he could obviously feel that Ye Su and the others were more reliable than the police who came before.
So the old man simply turned back and waved his hand: "Stop hanging around, just go and do what you need to do. The government people don't like to be disturbed when they are checking. I believe the government will be able to solve this matter. Let's go to work quickly."
go."
The surrounding villagers immediately dispersed.
Ye Su smiled and expressed his gratitude, and then walked in.
