Chapter 29: Old peace
Many things in this world that seem inexplicable to others are, such as unreasonable love, indescribable fate, and misunderstanding marriage. How could it be known that it was not the work of an immortal in heaven?
The chess piece in the event is ignorant, like a puppet carrying a string, still unaware of it, and enjoys it. He only thinks that there is no one like me in the world. Little do you know that God is favored, but what if God doesn't favor it? What if he is regarded as an abandoned son? So what can you do?
This is the sadness of the chess piece.
Qi Xuansu was deeply touched. When "God" favored him, he was smooth sailing. The Taoist sect was the most proud. What if "God" didn't favor him? It was like raising pigs. It was naturally good when raising them. There was no need to look after the house, no need to plow the field, no need to produce milk and cut hair, just be alive. What should I do when I slaughter and eat meat?
Regarding this matter, Qi Xuansu does not want to talk about right or wrong, nor does he want to criticize anything from a moral high ground. This is a problem of enemy and us, a core interest issue, and there is no room for relief. It is useless to say that the world is too high.
The moral standards can be changed. Are the moral standards in ancient times the same as today's moral standards? In the past, it was morally correct when kneeling and kowtow when an official saw him, but now it is about equality. It is morally wrong when kneeling and kowtow when an official saw him.
Right and wrong can also be changed, because history serves the present. The Taipingdao Uprising was wrong in the past, a rebellion, and violated the way of loyalty to the emperor. Today, the Taipingdao Uprising was right, and it was a desperate resistance initiated by the people after they were desperate.
Today's morality may be the dross of tomorrow. How can you know that today's correctness is not tomorrow's fault?
There is a confusion between Qi Xuansu and the Earth Master. If there is no Earth Master, there is probably no Qi Xuansu today, but Qi Xuansu will not be able to give up his life because of this.
This so-called grace of knowing and meeting was full of malice from the beginning. Not to mention that Qi Xuansu was today, it was not just a merit from the Earth Master alone, but also Tianshi, Qi Niang, Donghua Real Person, Cihang Real Person, etc.
This is like a joint-stock company. Dishi is the founder, but as the company expands, others continue to invest. Dishi is only one of the shareholders and has no absolute controlling rights. It is no longer a company that Dishi is alone.
Without the Earth Master, there would be no Qi Xuansu today, which is not the same as Qi Xuansu's ability to rely on the Earth Master today.
These are two different things.
In other words, success is insufficient, failure is more than failure.
As Qin Lingge lost this son, Li Zhixing and Qin Hengyue, the eldest daughter of the Qin family, met by chance. They fell in love at first sight for no reason. It was an indescribable fate.
This is love, and it is hard to explain it clearly.
From this we can see that Qin Hengyue is a direct member of the Qin family and uses the word "generation model". Li Zhixing's origin is a bit biased. Perhaps he is from the adopted son school, so he doesn't use the word "generation model" of the Li family.
While being the county magistrate, Qin Lingge took the upper level route, striving to establish good relations with the Qin family and develop its own power.
Qi Xuansu had to take the lower level route.
Speaking of this, Qi Xuansu is experienced. At that time, he and Zhou Mengyao were swallowed by the "Cangtian", and the two lost their realm of cultivation. In order to break through Cangyun Castle, they established a Taiping Sect.
These are all ready-made experiences.
This time, Qi Xuansu planned to serve as the great master of the Taiping Sect, and was the supreme leader of the Taiping Sect. There is no general of the Heavenly King. The great master personally mastered the military power within the sect and secretly formed the Yellow Turban Army. However, he no longer regarded "Huang Tian" as the supreme god, but regarded the Taishang Taoist ancestor as the supreme god. Those who watch chess are all Taoist people, and the great masters personally supervise the battle, so it is better to restrain them.
Taking the "Taiping Jing" as the supreme classic, the right to interpret the scriptures is in me. The core doctrine is to "achieve peace". We must establish a peaceful world. In this peaceful world, there is no exploitation and oppression, no hunger, cold, disease, and no fraud and theft, and everyone is like a dragon.
The rest are old settings, such as the national teacher: Li Changgeng, who is the great saint who has attained the Tao, and who is the one who is the master of the Tao. If the response is in response, the change will follow the direction, and if the success is accomplished, the permanent residence will be hidden and permanent residence. The residence has no place to dwell, and the constant origin is not there. The six emptinesses are circulated, the three realms are educated, the transcendental laws, the worldly laws, and the actions are inactive, and all of them are thoroughly investigated.
The national master cannot say anything. This does not insult the national master at all, but rather has greatly improved it.
The Li family’s acquaintance has made a comeback again!
Of course, this cannot be considered a deception. Qi Xuansu is sitting high in the clouds at this time, just like an immortal.
So Qi Xuansu left his third son and gave him the "Nine-section Scepter", "Taiping Jing" and "Taiping Yaoshu".
Of course, this "Nine-section Scepter" is not the genuine "Nine-section Scepter". The real "Nine-section Scepter" is in the hands of the national master, and is the exclusive immortal object of the leader of Taipingdao, similar to the "Yangpingzhidu Gong Seal" of Zhengyi. Moreover, in this book, due to the suppression of dragon energy, it is difficult to exert earth-shaking power. It can only be used to use some small magic to cure diseases and save people and shock evil spirits, but it is enough.
When the audience saw Qi Xuansu falling into his third son, many people laughed out loud.
"It's really the Taipingdao experience."
"What a Taiping Sect, and the national teacher is the leader, it's wonderful, wonderful."
"I wonder how you fellow Taoists from Taipingdao feel?"
"Isn't the so-called great wise men and great teachers the Taiping Dao Dazhen people today? It seems that compared with the Quanzhen Dazhen people, the little master likes the Taiping Dazhen people more."
"But then again, Taiping Dao is indeed more professional in rebellion, followed by Zhengyi Dao, and finally Quanzhen Dao."
"It is also a satirical thing. The scholar of Confucianism is the county magistrate of the Great Wei court on the surface, but in fact he is a great wise teacher of the Taiping Cult, which is interesting."
As for why Qi Xuansu had to take the exam to be a county magistrate in one go, rather than preach directly, there are two main reasons.
First, because you need to use the official identity as a cover, direct missionary will easily be suppressed in advance.
Secondly, because Qi Xuansu did not make up his mind to do this at the beginning, and he still wanted to take the governor's way of accumulating strength. As a result, the heavenly way here retaliated and put him in the territory of Yanzhou. Seeing that the governor's way was not working, he had to change his mind, so he might as well have a Taiping Cult.
This is a method that cannot be done. Taiping Buddhism has another advantage, that is, it can save money. If you cannot satisfy materially, you can rely on your spirit to drive it, which is considered to be a different approach.
As for why the people want to join the church.
This is a cliché. Yanzhou is not rich, and Qiongming County ranks low in Yanzhou. You can imagine the lives of the people. When people live, they always have a thought. Religion is what people think about. Whether it is true or painting a big cake to satisfy their hunger, it can always give people some comfort, so naturally it is believed.
Furthermore, there is no vacuum in power, especially grassroots power.
The so-called imperial power does not go to the countryside. The Confucian court is at most a county level. The baojia system at the bottom is essentially a gentry autonomy. Taiping religion has taken root in this soil, and its primary enemy is not the court, but the gentry.
The so-called squire is actually a general concept. They are not alone, nor are they a solid piece of solid, but a loose group, each with their own ideas. Some want to calm down, some think it is irrelevant, and some people feel it is irrelevant, and some people are like facing a great enemy. Whether it is cohesion or organizational strength, they cannot be compared with a sect. Some squires themselves will even join the church. In the absence of official power, squires are by no means opponents of the sect.
Within a county, Yin Zhengxin represents the official power. It goes without saying who he will favor.
Not to mention, Yin Zhengxin has a "nine-section scepter" in his hand, which can use miracles in a small range, and cannot scare those important people with luck. It is not difficult for ordinary people to accept it.
In this process, Yin Zhengxin was constantly guiding Huang Rong to change Huang Rong's thoughts.
Huang Rong was based on the Confucianism philosophy of following her husband when she got married, but she was not very resistant.
Soon, Huang Rong was completely influenced by Yin Zhengxin, converted to Taiping Sect, and was appointed as a general by Yin Zhengxin, responsible for the training of the Yellow Turban Army - he still had to be a servant on the surface.
Huang Rong met a master when he was young and was taught a lot of martial arts, which was quite good. It was not difficult to simply train soldiers to fight and fight. However, the way of military formations and attacks requires professional talents, so Huang Rong is just a general.
As a result, Qi Xuansu and Qin Lingge gradually got on the right track, set up a general framework, straightened out their future plans, and then it was time to grind, day after day, year after year, accumulated over time.
