The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 673

After Bai Yunzi saw Jiang Chuan sat down, he stared at Jiang Chuan without saying a word.

Jiang Chuan looked uncomfortable and felt awkward, but he couldn't say anything, he just smiled.

Bai Yunzi suddenly looked away and laughed loudly.

The laughter was clear and clear, not harsh, but it was so clear in this quiet night, rolling away in all directions like thunder, so frightened that the jackals, tigers and leopards in the forest did not dare to make any more sound, as if they were scared to death. General courage.

Jiang Chuan was horrified in his heart, and his body tensed up involuntarily, but there was a smile on his face, and there was no clue.

Bai Yunzi stopped laughing, glanced at him, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Boy, don't be so nervous. If the old man wanted to harm you, you wouldn't be sitting here now."

Jiang Chuan secretly swallowed his saliva, but kept a calm face and said: "The junior knows that the senior will not harm me, so he is willing to come up the mountain."

"You are confident. I really don't know where the courage comes from. But you can come with only one guard. The old man did have some surprises. Are you really not afraid that the old man will slap you to death?" Bai Yunzi stared at him with burning eyes. Jiangchuan Road.

Jiang Chuan said sternly: "Senior, the Baiyun School is not a dragon pool or a tiger's lair, but a famous holy place that the poor people in the world yearn to worship. It takes eliminating violence and peace as its mission, and its purpose is to punish evil and promote good. Although I, Jiang Chuan, dare not say that I am a saint and Bodhisattva, but But I also have some merits and virtues for the people of this world. I am definitely not a villain. I naturally came to this Baiyun sect. If the senior is the kind of person who does not ask right and wrong, but only looks at personal likes and dislikes, then he will definitely not create Baiyun sect. If so, why should I be afraid of it?"

"It's a bit courageous. Since the establishment of Baiyunzong, all the officials and emperors in the court have regarded me as a thorn in the side of Baiyunzong, and they all want to deal with it quickly. Now that you are the regent, you will sooner or later be emperor. , Why do you want to come to see me, is it because you want to find out the route and terrain, and then send an army to destroy it in one fell swoop?"

Bai Yunzi looked at him with a calm expression, but what he said gave Jiang Chuan a slight chill.

Not to mention anything else, even Bai Yunzi's burst of laughter just now is enough to be called a top expert in the world.If he wanted to harm himself, Jiang Chuan thought to himself that he would have no chance of escaping.

Although his martial arts can be regarded as a first-class master, it is still in the acquired category.

But Bai Yunzi didn't know how many years he had entered the Xiantian realm, and his martial arts were already unfathomable. If he wanted to kill himself, one finger would be enough.

At this moment, Bai Yunzi no longer had the kind of enthusiasm and excitement in the daytime, like a child's curiosity. After he calmed down, he was like a towering mountain. Great sense of oppression.

But when he thought that if Bai Yunzi wanted to kill him, he would have done it long ago, and he wouldn't wait until now.

Taking a deep breath hard, Jiang Chuan let himself calm down slowly, looked at Bai Yunzi, and said seriously: "I came to see senior this time, the reason I came here is to propose marriage to senior, and I want senior to agree to marry Miss Xiu. Give it to me. Secondly, I also want to discuss a feasible path with seniors for the future of Baiyunzong. As for the theory of exploring the way, I am afraid that seniors themselves would not believe it. If it were not so, Baiyunzong would have been destroyed by the court long ago. Wait until today. What do seniors think?"

What Jiang Chuan said was that Baiyunzong was located in the depths of the [-] mountains, with high mountains and dense forests, the roads were extremely difficult, and there were no roads in many places.

Let alone a hundred thousand troops, even if a million troops were thrown in, it would be useless.

Moreover, if the imperial court really conscripted a large army to attack, the movement would be so great that Bai Yunzong would have already gotten the news and left.

You can hide everywhere in these [-] mountains, but in the end it can only be nothing.

It is even more difficult to wipe out, and it is not much different from ascending to the sky.

With such advanced technology and weapons in modern society, it is difficult to completely wipe out those extremist militants hiding in the mountains, let alone in the ancient world of agricultural society.

If Bai Yunzong wanted to overthrow the imperial court, it would be extremely difficult to do so.But if the imperial court wants to exterminate them, it is also impossible.

Bai Yunzi snorted softly and said, "Xiu girl has all her heart on you now, if you don't want to come, even if she feels sad, she will go with you in the end. I watched her grow up since I was a child, and the most I understand her. As for the future of Baiyunzong, the old man has his own plans in mind, do you still need a junior like you to make irresponsible remarks?"

Jiang Chuan said sternly: "Senior, Miss Xiu has no father or mother since she was a child. You raised her and taught her. Although she is not a parent, this kindness is better than that of her parents. I know she has a deep affection for me. If I If she doesn't want to come, she will never force me. But I understand that even if we are together in the end, but we don't get your blessing, she will be very sad and will not be happy for the rest of my life. Since I love her and love her Naturally, we should think about her, make her happy, leave no regrets, and marry happily. When she is happy, I will be happy too. For her sake, but also for myself, of course I will come .”

Jiang Chuan said what was in his heart, and he said what he thought, and it was naturally moving when he said it.

He has been a human being in two lives and has experienced so much. Although he is only in his 20s, his mentality has long since matured and stabilized.

Elopements can only exist in novels, film and television dramas, and even if there are occasional ones, most of them will not be happy.

A marriage without family blessings is often difficult to be happy. Didn't Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun also go back to see their father-in-law in the end?

If Bai Yunzi can't be dealt with, even if Bai Jinxiu marries her in the end, there will still be a heartache left, and it will become a conflict between the two of them in the future.

Jiang Chuan understood this very well.

Bai Yunzi listened to him, looked at his tone, he was sincere and serious, not like a fake, and said after a while: "Your boy is sensible, Xiu girl is right. Then tell me, where is the future of my Baiyun sect?"

Jiang Chuan knew that the first hurdle had passed, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a deep voice: "Senior established the Baiyun Sect, the original intention is admirable, and indeed killed many wicked people, and upheld justice for many people .

But according to the younger generation, Baiyunzong is a double-edged sword.If in troubled times, the court law is corrupt, the officials are corrupt, bandits are rampant, and the common people have nowhere to complain about their grievances, Bai Yunzong will come forward to eradicate violence and peace, and kill corrupt officials and thieves, which is a good deed.

But if the world is at peace, and the troubled times turn into ruled ones, if Bai Yunzong still judges who is evil and who is good based on his own likes and dislikes, and lynches others at will, how can you guarantee justice, senior?

How to ensure the selflessness of the executioner?

And how can you ensure that the person you kill deserves what he deserves?

In this way, where is the court's law and government authority?

If everyone followed suit and did not go to the government if there were disputes and lawsuits, but used force to lynch indiscriminately on their own initiative, wouldn't it be chaos in the world, and what role would the government have?

If those treacherous people pretend to be Baiyunzi to kill innocent people indiscriminately and commit evil deeds, how will Baiyunzong deal with themselves?
The world is vast, and there are countless people, how many wicked Bai Yunzong can kill in this world? "

These words had already been drafted in Jiang Chuan's mind, and after he calmed down, he blurted out. Looking at Bai Yunzi, he spoke righteously, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became, and finally, the power of the superior person unconsciously emanated from him. A series of questioning made Bai Yunzi's face serious, his lips moved, but he wanted to say something but stopped.

After a long while, Bai Yunzi looked at Jiang Chuan, and said solemnly: "Human nature is evil, even if there is a government of law, can you guarantee that those officials and dignitaries will abide by the law, not exploit the common people, and not oppress the good? You can’t kill all the wicked people in the world, but at least you can make the wicked fearful, even when you do evil, you will have scruples, isn’t this the meaning of my Baiyun sect’s existence?”

At this time, Jiang Chuan's thoughts were clear and his heart was surging. He simply jumped off the boulder and said while pacing: "Senior is right. Human nature is evil. We can't expect those officials and dignitaries to have a higher moral level than ordinary people. On the contrary, these people hold Power, with all kinds of resources in hand, is more likely to be tempted than ordinary people, easier to do evil, and doing evil is more harmful. I know this very well in my heart."

When Jiang Chuan said this, he took a deep breath, calmed down his slightly agitated mood, and then continued: "From the day I embarked on the journey, I knew that if I want the world to be peaceful, I must never place my hope on the power of human nature." The good thoughts in the world can be awakened to achieve peace in the world, otherwise it is tantamount to idiots' dreams and whimsical fantasies."

When Bai Yunzi heard this, he was unconsciously attracted by Jiang Chuan's words, and asked involuntarily, "Then what do you think can stop the wicked from doing evil, and achieve peace and rule the world?"

Jiang Chuan said in a deep voice: "If officials and dignitaries commit evil, then use strong force as a backing, strict laws as a yardstick, and reasonable institutional settings as a barrier to limit the behavior of officials and dignitaries from derailment and infidelity to the greatest extent. Crossing the line, using severe consequences to make officials fearful, and using bottom-up supervision methods to make their evil deeds invisible. In this way, even if corrupt officials cannot be completely eradicated, most officials Don't dare to do evil."

Bai Yunzi nodded secretly when he heard this, and asked again: "Then what if ordinary people do evil?"

Jiang Chuan said: "If the common people do evil, except for those who are born evil, most of the rest are forced to do evil because of their livelihood. Or they are impulsive and do wrong things. For those who are forced to do evil, the court and the government should think about it. There is no way to solve their livelihood, this is the root cause.

The so-called honesty and etiquette, people will abide by the law when they are full.For those who make mistakes on the spur of the moment, punish them with the law and give them a chance to correct their mistakes.As for those who are naturally wicked, severe punishments are used to prevent them from doing evil at all.The imperial court also needs to set up a channel for the people to redress their grievances, accept the people's reports and complaints, and then conduct a careful investigation, so that evil deeds cannot be hidden and the wicked will be punished.Let good people not be wronged.If things go on like this, can this world still be peaceful? "

After being silent for a long while, Bai Yunzi sneered and said, "Throughout the ages, how many virtuous rulers and virtuous ministers have never thought of this? But where are those people now? In the end, it's not the cycle of chaos, the people suffer, and the wicked run rampant. Even if you can You do what you say, but how can you ensure that your descendants think like you? Do you do like you? After all, it’s not just a dream.”
