Chapter 341 New Ideas
Confucius was so shocked that he couldn't say a word. The sports specialty of Sheng Zilu was not polite. He couldn't help but say, "If you say this, wouldn't everyone in the world have the intention to be a monarch? But there are only a limited country in the world, and there are no many monarchs."
"That's because a monarch cannot cultivate a country's land, cannot raise a country's animal, and cannot weave a country's cloth, so the people must help him complete it. If one person can cultivate a country's land, one person can raise a country's animal, and one person can weave a country's cloth, then wouldn't everyone be a monarch?" Yun Yao said decisively.
"It's ridiculous. Not to mention human beings, even oxes cannot plow the land of the country. What you are talking about is nonsense." Zilu widened his eyes like a lion, suspecting that Yunyao was a madman.
Yun Yao said slowly, "Is it really not possible to plow? From ancient times to the present, from Shennong's taste of hundreds of herbs to the present, the skills and tools of plowing have changed so much, how much more grain can a farmer grow? If human power is not good, the power of cattle is not good, then there are naturally other powers."
"You're talking about what power can you cultivate a country besides human power and cow power?" Zilu was very angry. He had already clenched his fists. If Yunyao couldn't give a satisfactory answer, he would punch Yunyao to shut up.
"Whenever a strong wind blows, the roof will be blown away, and the trees will be pushed. Can the wind be stronger than the power of a cow? The water flows eastward, and it will never stop. The embankment collapses and destroys fields. Can the water power be stronger than the power of a cow? The fire is raging, destroying and rotting, turning into ash, and the firepower is stronger than the power of a cow?" Yun Yao gave three examples, leaving Zilu's fist nowhere to hit.
At this time, Zigong and Yan Hui both stared wide, especially Yan Hui thought, could Yunyao reveal his identity as a god? Although wind power, water power, and firepower are stronger than human power and Niu power, how can mortals drive these three powers? It is useless to say it.
Confucius came to his senses and listened to these crazy words with interest. Although he was crazy, he had never heard of them.
Zilu continued to ask: "How can people control the wind, drive water, and control fire? Your words are simply crazy words."
"It doesn't mean it can't be done now, but it doesn't mean it can't be done in the future. I have also said that from Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs to intensive cultivation, the human race has changed a lot. You always say that Yao, Shun and Yu were the best era, so have you ever thought about what farm tools they used? You always say that the Zhou rituals were restored, so what farm tools they used in the Western Zhou Dynasty? And what farm tools are we using now?" Yun Yao asked back.
It is not surprising to everyone's way of asking Yun Yao, after all, Confucius also uses heuristic teaching.
They really didn't think about the history of tool development. They only knew that the world was peaceful in the era of Yao, Shun and Yu, and everyone's life was very happy. They only knew that the Zhou rituals were promoted in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and everyone was safe and stable, without any war of hegemony.
As for what farm tools were used by Yao, Shun, Yu and King Wu and King Wen, who did not know, would the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and King Tang, Wu, still need to farm?
"Obviously you have never considered it. Your eyes are just looking up and never looking down at the bottom." Yun Yao said, without any hesitation, answering directly: "The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors used stones, shells, and bones as agricultural tools. By the Western Zhou Dynasty, bronzes were used as agricultural tools. Now the great powers have gradually replaced iron farm tools. With the changes in tools, a person can complete more work. One day, the human race invented tools that can control wind, water, and fire, and one person can cultivate a country's land. In the past, it was the era when everyone was a king."
Everyone was stunned because Yunyao's analysis was remote and his logic was cautious, so that no one could find any flaws.
Indeed, if a person is so capable that he can complete all the work of a country, then he is the monarch. If everyone is like this, then everyone is the monarch.
Even Confucius could not imagine such a world, but Yan Hui could imagine it, but what he imagined was the fairy world. After the immortals practiced, they were indeed better than the king. But can ordinary people do this? Yan Hui thought it was unlikely.
Yunyao spoiled again, but looking at her expression, you will know that she didn't care, and she will definitely continue spoiling in the future.
It was amazing. Yunyao gave a path they had never thought about. In the past, they only thought about the superstructure and Zhou Li and self-discipline. They never thought that it was not Zhou Li, but also the evolution of agricultural tools.
The more agricultural tools evolve, the more food they produce, and the better their lives will be.
A world where everyone is a king is really beyond imagination. They can only imagine a harmonious and harmonious world where the elders are respected and the elderly are the young, the young are the young, and the young are the young, and the world of kindness. But even in this world there are kings, doctors, nationals, and savages. It is just that the king loves everyone, and everyone loves the king.
Seeing that Confucius had to go through such a violent brainstorm at such a fierce age, Yunyao couldn't help but say, "Teacher doesn't have to feel sad, because your benevolence, etiquette and music are also useful. After all, even if everyone becomes a king, there are foolish monarchs and tyrants, and they can still fight. Therefore, you still have to restrain yourself, improve your self-cultivation, and promote benevolence, righteousness and morality."
Confucius nodded and said, "That's true. Now there are only a few monarchs in the vassals and countries. If one day everyone becomes a monarch, then wouldn't it be overturned?" He immediately became energetic, because if everyone is a monarch, then everyone should accept his thoughts, and he is indeed useful.
Zilu and Zigong were relieved after hearing this, and felt that this was the case. Yan Hui even thought of the fairy world. There were too many things to kill people and seize treasures in the fairy world, but it was just a matter of earth-shaking. Now I think it was because of my lack of morality. I should indeed learn from Confucius, and then I would also promote benevolence when I returned to the fairy world.
Just thinking about this, the Taoist foundation in Yan Hui's body actually blossomed, which made him overjoyed. He looked at Yunyao gratefully. If Yunyao hadn't been talking nonsense, he would not have been able to strengthen Confucius' determination, nor would he help him clear the sky.
Yunyao glanced at Yan Hui jealously, thinking that Taoist Qingxu was so lucky, it seemed that returning to the Xuan Realm was just around the corner.
Confucius suddenly bent down to Yunyao and said, "I will be my teacher when I walk through three people. Your unique insights make me ashamed." "In the future, I will teach you the "Book of Changes" and teach me how to exert the power of Feng Shui and Fire."
Yunyao quickly replied the gift, thinking that the old master is a real person, and indeed an educator who meditates on me every day. His humble attitude is no less than that of himself.
Confucius knew something that Yun Yao had only learned in the chaotic world for thirty years by the leader of Tongtian.
Next, Yunyao made small windmills, small waterwheels, and small stoves to do some scientific experiments at the level of elementary school students, which amazed Confucius and his core disciples. Although these small experiments are difficult to put into practice, they do prove that wind, water, and firepower exist, and are used by humans, but there is no such solid material now.
