My magic weapons are all rule-based

"I really didn't see any signs of corruption in them. Come on, Master Xu." The Fifth Refiner said.

Xu Shan summoned a small pile of spirit stones and placed them on the table. He picked up one of them and placed it in place: "Actually, it's not complicated. The root cause is that there is something wrong with the management model of the Huanhai Sect."

"Liu Huagan is stubborn by nature. Since he took office, he has begun to appoint people based on personal connections. Although I don't know much about the elders in the sect, many public reward and punishment records in the document library can show this characteristic."

"To put it simply, Liu Huagan's management of the sect's teaching affairs and personnel is different from other sects, but more like the relationship between a benefactor and a guest."

"Since he started, appointments at all levels have begun to form relationships based on personal connections. Once this relationship develops, it forms an invisible hierarchical structure in the sect, and then this structure gradually becomes public." Xu Shan kept placing spirit stones.

"The treatment of elders from five stars to one star is very different at each level. In addition to some basic supplies of spirit stones and elixirs, there are also special healing rooms of different levels, training rooms and other benefits. The highest and lowest can differ by dozens of times."

"And Liu Huagan's rewards for meritorious elders are also increasing year by year. The punishments for some disciples who disobey him are extremely harsh. Generally speaking, the lower the level, the more severe the punishment. The highest level elders are almost not punished. The hierarchy is strict, and killing chickens to scare monkeys is obvious at a glance."

"This has in fact formed a kind of institutionalized corruption, and the so-called religious rules have become a complete cover."

Xu Shan continued to talk: "Fifty years after Liu Huagan took over, the spiritual mines of Huanhai Sect were mined out, and he constituted This system has greatly disrupted the old resource allocation method of Huanhai Sect. "

"Huanhai Sect itself has no pillar industry, and it is completely unsustainable to rely on hunting monsters and collecting spiritual medicines. Liu Huagan must know this very well. "

"It is too slow and difficult to establish a pillar industry to keep Huanhai Sect going, and it cannot satisfy the people who have been fed by him. So he chose the most efficient step, expanding corruption to the whole and directly launching a war. "

"Originally, the influence of Huanhai Sect was not so wide, but after the spiritual mine was exhausted, in the past 150 years, more than a dozen small and medium-sized sects around were destroyed after being accused of its stigma, and its resources were plundered, and even some independent cultivators were involved. "

The Fifth Refiner nodded deeply.

Why it is a stigma, there is no need to explain this.

In the past 150 years, wars have been launched continuously to destroy more than a dozen small and medium-sized forces.

This frequency is very common in battles in mortal countries.

But for the cultivation world, the frequency is too high.

The time spent on cultivation by monks is extremely high. Individual battles may be frequent, but the sects cannot fight as frequently as ordinary people.

That is to say, the unlucky ones who were destroyed must have been smeared by someone and killed by someone for any reason.

Xu Shan continued: "At this point, the Huanhai Sect has begun to border the Zhenyan Sect. The Zhenyan Sect is not an ordinary small sect. Its strength is on par with the Huanhai Sect. If Liu Huagan wants to continue to maintain the status quo, there are only two ways. One is to continue to look for weak opponents, and the other is to embezzle the Zhenyan Sect."

"But he is too lucky. God gave him a third choice... the Star Point Mine. The benefits brought by the Star Point Mine are enough for him to continue playing this game until today."

The Fifth Refining Front frowned: "All this is just your guess. You said before that the document library is not an important place. Can you guarantee that the conclusion you draw is correct based on the information inside?"

Xu Shan didn't know how to explain for a while.

In the document library for more than ten days, Xu Shan had a vague map in his mind that was gradually pieced together.

Until today, Jiang Caiying brought news that this "puzzle" was finally complete and a feasible plan could be drawn up.

The speculation about the Huanhai Sect was not groundless, but there was a case to refer to.

He remembered similar cases.

The little mustache who started the Second World War in his previous life played like this.

The extreme corruption of the Nazis caused great problems in the distribution of benefits, resulting in financial deficits. The only solution was to expand corruption.

Fight to support war.

But when everyone got the benefits of this plunder, human nature and morality began to collectively degenerate.

Of course, the organizational logic of this matter cannot be fully applied to the Huanhai Sect.

The supreme rule of mortals needs to control military power and politics, and needs to constantly win over people's hearts. It is understandable to use such efficient but harmful means.

But Liu Huagan is the highest combat power under the three elders, and one person can represent the military sect. There may be only one possibility for doing this.

There are still people under the three elders who can compete with him, influence the disciples in the sect, and even seize power.

Without a doubt, if there is one, this person is the only elder in the sect who has reached the state of transformation.

But judging from the current situation, Liu Huagan has won many victories along the way, and everyone has submitted to him. In addition, the elder must have gained a lot of benefits from the development.

No matter how many objections there are, they cannot be raised, and the best they can do is to lie dormant.

After a moment of silence, Xu Shan said: "This is not groundless speculation, but common sense. You must believe in the power of common sense."

"Common sense? What does it mean?" asked the Fifth Refiner.

Xu Shan smiled and changed the subject: "Let me ask you two a question. If there are two cities, the people in the cities have the same living standards and are also in the rising period."

"One city is extremely clean and has never had any scandals, while the other city is often involved in scandals and is hotly debated. If you two were mortals, which city would you go to live in? Don't hesitate, just answer me directly."

"Of course, the one with a good reputation." The Fifth Refiner and the other said without hesitation.

Xu Shan shook his head slowly: "Common sense is... any organization will be mixed with mud and sand in the process of development. It is impossible for a city without scandals to exist. A city is extremely clean and has no scandals, and there must be someone suppressing it."

"And the other place where scandals often break out and cause heated discussions must have a group that can point out the pros and cons without obstruction."

"People need to get accurate intelligence first to make the right decision. In a place where the truth cannot be told, most people cannot get the right intelligence, and even making the right choice to seek benefits and avoid harm is very risky. From a probability perspective, if the conditions in the two places are equal, you should choose the place where you can get as much intelligence as possible, so as to avoid spending more time to experience and adapt to the unspoken rules, and make better strategies for yourself and the external environment."
