The host is red and black, and the system can only chirp

The two beauties were taken away by Sect Master Xi, and Sect Master Zhu didn't dare to take the "Heavenly Demon Strategy" that he had been thinking about? I don't understand. People are beautiful, so they think more and don't understand.

The system cares about the host: [Are you in a bad mood? ]

Xi Mingming stopped writing. She was distracted for a moment and the words she wrote turned into simplified Chinese characters.

Gao Hongde has criticized this problem countless times.

Gao Hongde believed that Master Xi had outstanding insights and must be a studious person; the reason why his handwriting was not good was mainly because he had no teacher in the Western Regions.

So I always hold on to this point.

Xi Mingming put down his pen, [I just don't understand, this Ghost Demon Sect has been eyeing the world for so many years, and has so many talented people from the Han Dynasty to the present... Why didn't they come forward to clean up the country during the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty? ]

From Xi Ying to Zhao Deyan, from Zhu Yuyan to Wanwan, even though Xi Mingming always criticizes the people of the Demon Sect for their touching logic, if you really speak the truth from your heart -

In this era, being literate, practicing martial arts, having the ability to think and having superb martial arts skills… no matter whether there is a problem with the direction of your thinking, at least you are not stupid.

Without a solid foundation, how can we easily cultivate so many high-level talents?

But look at what they are doing? On the one hand, they are like grudge women, hating the people in power for not valuing them; on the other hand, they are not doing their job.

[Why didn't the Demon Sect come out to raise their arms and shout during the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China? In troubled times, carrying the country on your shoulders is the best time to gain the right to speak, right? ]

Sect Master Xi was in a terrible mood: [If what Zhu Yuyan said is true, then Shi Zhixuan's real goal is to contribute to the fall of the Sui Dynasty...]

It is impossible to destroy the country by one's own strength. If Yang Guang had been less troublesome, the world would not have perished so quickly.

When the Sui Dynasty unified China, a great chaos had just ended and people were eager for peace. That's why Yang Guang was able to stir up trouble for so long.

The clear goal is to subvert the country, while the treacherous ministers try to survive under the tyrant. Although the results of their actions are the same, their original intentions are completely different.

Xi Mingming was really upset: [Oh, so the Demon Sect didn't care when the world was in chaos, and the people finally had a few days of good life, but because they had no say, they immediately came out to stir up trouble? ]

[Even now... Take Dou Jiande for example. He was originally just a village head and had nothing, but he still dared to take responsibility and protect the people.]

Sect Master Xi really couldn't understand: [Look at the actions of all the members of the Demon Sect. They still choose to rely on various forces to act... Please, big sister, you want to fight for the world. Is it a serious illness to hide behind others? ]

Sect Master Xi asked the system: [Have they been hiding in the gutter for too long and don't know how to walk the glorious and righteous path? ]

She, Xi Mingming, didn't want to fight for the world at all, but she couldn't bear to watch countless border residents die and get injured when the Turks invaded the border, so she had to fight the Turks... After setting a goal, she immediately started working, and painstakingly integrated the six border counties into an iron plate.

He even dared to announce to the whole world that whoever dared to massacre the people would be punished even if he was far away.

.

You have so many talented people in your sect, but no one is willing to submit to the other. You can't even unify one sect, yet you want to conquer the world... Do you expect the sects to be unified naturally? And then get the supreme martial arts classics?

Why? It's easier to conquer the world than to unify the Demon Sect, and it's easier to unify the Demon Sect than to create one's own martial arts.

This is Zhu Yuyan’s logic!

This is purely putting the cart before the horse, thinking the easiest thing is the most difficult, and thinking the most difficult thing is the most one-sided.

System: [Host, if you look down on Zhu Yuyan so much... why didn't you destroy her martial arts? ]

[What happens after they are crippled? Do I have to go find Cihang Jingzhai and cripple them as well? Does that mean I have nothing to do all day and just have to deal with this bunch of psychopaths?]

How much better is Cihang Jingzhai? It is exactly the same as the Demon Sect, a group of knights who break the law with force.

With these two restraining each other, ordinary people can at least have a chance to survive.

System: [That’s true.]

[You said that they have practiced martial arts, but they can't protect the whole world, but it's not difficult for them to protect the people of one place? The gatekeepers are scattered, and one person protects a small piece of land. If they are connected together, they can be considered a force, right? Who dares to be emperor without being conferred a title? Isn't this standing in the court and having the right to speak? ]

[Host, this is your logic, not Youxia's logic.]

【Right. 】

.

As the north wind blows, every household in the border area starts to heat their kangs, but no one stays in the house for the winter, so the scene is still bustling with activity.

Sect Leader Xi, who was in a bad mood, finally received surprising good news.

Sect Leader Xi didn't even have time to put on his sandals. He ran to the meeting room barefoot in the middle of winter. Before he even entered the room, he asked anxiously, "Did you find cotton? Really?"

He stepped inside and grabbed Ba Fenghan's arm: "Did you find Bai Diezi?"

Without waiting for Ba Fenghan to react, he grabbed Song Bang's shoulder and shook him: "Did you find Ji Bei?"

Gao Hongde frowned. When will the sect leader pay attention to his image?

Then he thought, the master is a martial arts master who is not affected by cold or heat, and he is not happy for himself, so he softened his heart: "It's all here. It's exactly the same as your description and drawing."

Xi Mingming stepped forward and opened the lid carefully, fearing that the treasure in the big box would be damaged.

Gently push open the white balls on the plant, they feel soft to the touch in your palm, and if you twist them repeatedly, they can be rubbed into thin strips.

Sect Leader Xi couldn't help but burst into tears. It was real cotton, her cotton cloth... In two years, the people in the border town wouldn't have to worry about clothes anymore.

.

The Book of Liang records: "Gaochang has many plants, the seeds of which are like cocoons, and the silk inside the cocoons is like fine yarn, called Baidiezi. Many people in the country weave them into clothes, and the cloth is very soft and white, and is sold in the market."

Gaochang State, the hometown of Ba Fenghan, had already been producing straw cotton cloth during the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

The "Jibei" that the children of the Song Dynasty clan were looking for, "Jibei" is Li language, and it also refers to sea island cotton, which was recorded even earlier.

"The Book of Documents·Tribute of Yu" records that "the island barbarians wear flowers and clothing. Their baskets are made of woven shells, and they wrap oranges and grapefruits. They pay tribute with tin, along the rivers and seas, and as far as the Huai and Si rivers." The so-called woven shells are none other than the herb kapok.

.

For the first time, Xi Mingming was grateful that there were true energy and martial arts in this world, otherwise she would not dare to send people to search for species all over the world.
