Chapter 292 Come to vote
Everyone was frightened, fell to the ground, and cried and begged.
Among them, there are false feelings, false intentions, and sincerity.
Xu Yang sat on the cloud and didn't care.
Over the years, he has robbed everywhere, attacked various major forces, and kidnapped a large number of people.
The composition of these people is very complex.
There are people like Chu Lingfeng and Zhang Shaobai who are direct descendants of Shenwu who are ranked on the Earth Ranking and even the Heaven Ranking.
There is also someone like Li Hongjun. Although he is not on the Heavenly and Earthly Rankings, he still belongs to a branch of the Shenwu inheritance.
There are also some small families, Martial Artists from small forces, and independent Cultivator rangers.
Among the three types of people, the first two are the majority.
After all, Xu Yang's method of kidnapping people was to attack the branch strongholds of the major divine martial forces. Naturally, there were many people from the major divine martial forces, and only a few Independent Cultivator Martial Artists were involved in the vortex.
But no matter what kind, no matter how many, he treats them equally.
Those who were murderers, committed heinous crimes, or were stubborn and unwilling to accept his Taoist teachings and use labor to atone for their crimes, have been eliminated by him and invested in the extremely promising industry of Yin soldiers and corpses. Now, Either he is sleeping in the corpse ground, or he is enjoying the favor in the altar of hell.
The rest of them are good prisoners who are not guilty enough to die and are willing to accept his education, reform through labor, and know how to return after going astray.
Among these people, the last small force, Sanren Martial Artist, is the most enthusiastic.
Because of their background, there is almost no possibility of contacting the divine martial arts inheritance. Although Xu Yang restricted their personal freedom, he also taught them karma and gave them hope of entering Divine Bridge. It also allowed them to see the unprecedented world of First Layer. .
With the grace of teaching, the love of teaching the Dharma, coupled with the moral education of preaching the scriptures and the special effects of teaching skills, these people with the highest enthusiasm directly became Xu Yang's supporters, even die-hards, and they just started The Nascent Soul monk who spoke out, Mo Bufan, is one of the representatives.
This person is an Independent Cultivator Martial Artist. Although his talent is not bad, he is from an ordinary background and has no access to the divine martial arts inheritance. He is also unwilling to work as a coward for major forces and work desperately, so he has been trapped in the Origin Core Realm world. Even as my longevity approaches, there is no hope for Divine Bridge.
As a result, at an auction, he met Xu Yang and became a meat ticket. He then obtained the Taoist Scriptures and passed on the teachings. He used the body of Martial Dao Yuan Dan to practice the Immortal Dao Yuan Ling method. In the end, he not only succeeded in practicing it before the deadline, but also In one fell swoop, he entered the realm of Nascent Soul and was able to extend his life and escape from death.
There is no need to say much about the people's aspirations to pass on the Dharma and teachings, to rebuild with kindness, and to have the hope of further advancement.
Soon, he became a representative figure among the prisoners, and was given an important task by Xu Yang, responsible for the supervisory work of a Law Weapon production line.
Therefore, what he said at this moment was indeed sincere and from the bottom of his heart, and was not a shill arranged by Xu Yang secretly.
Not only him, but other Sanren Martial Artists, small and medium-sized forces, and even the Spirit Partitioning martial arts branch all felt the same way.
After half a lifetime of hard work and no results, now we finally see hope, but the teacher who preached and imparted knowledge is about to abandon it. How can people not be frightened and cry?
This is the feeling of Mo Bufan, a type of person who, although driven by interests, is also sincere.
There is another category, which is complete hypocrisy.
For example, Zhang Shaobai, who inherited the divine martial arts, was born in Jianhai Pavilion, and was a hero on the Earth Ranking. Even though he was forced to follow Xu Yang for many years and was influenced by Taoism and skills, they could not control people's hearts after all.
A direct descendant of Shenwu like him would not want to take refuge.
Not only him, but also several divine Venerables who were just kidnapped. Although they are respectful on the surface and dare not disobey, it is still impossible to expect them to return to their hearts at the moment.
After all, they still have First Layer hope, that is, two hundred years later, the God of War will be opened, and a group of powerful men with the most divine will and even the Tribulation Realm will return to the world.
By then, one can imagine Xu Yang’s situation.
Unless he can defeat these powerful figures who have returned from the Temple of War just like he defeated Li Hengjiang, there is no chance that these direct descendants of Venerable and major forces will return to him.
But it doesn't matter, just don't go back if you don't want to go back. Xu Yang doesn't want them to go back.
What he did today was not to win over people's hearts, let alone the hearts and minds of these people.
He is just establishing a legal system and improving the motivation of these prisoners, that's all.
People must have hope. People without hope are just zombies.
Do you expect a group of zombies to be proactive, creative, and dedicated to working for you and creating value?
That is obviously unrealistic!
Even if these people are now under his control and have to do it, but without motivation, their work efficiency will be greatly reduced.
What's more, Xu Yang can't always use "prisoners" to do things for himself. When Wandao Academy develops, new disciples will definitely replace these labor camp prisoners.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish a legal system to distinguish rewards and punishments.
Only in this way can the work efficiency of the group be improved.
Just like in the world of Taoism, why does Xu Yang have to do so many things, including evaluating professional titles, setting up assessments, holding various competitions, and even creating "scars from heaven and demon marks" when the two worlds intersect? Illusion?
The purpose is to increase enthusiasm and enhance the sense of crisis, so as to stimulate internal and external demand and avoid complacency and the formation of a stagnant situation.
The same is true now. If you don't give these prisoners a little hope and let them work like cattle and horses, one day they will be swallowed by despair and would rather die than continue to live like this.
After all, life is precious, and freedom is even more valuable!
Therefore, Xu Yang wants to give them hope and a vision and goal to strive for.
To use a not-so-nice but very vivid metaphor, it is - painting a cake!
Paint them a pie that is fragrant and attractive and can actually be eaten, so that these people will be more active in working for him.
It doesn't matter at all whether that part of the people have returned to their hearts or not.
Under the temptation of freedom, they will be motivated and work more actively, no matter whether they return to their original intention or not.
that's enough.
Xu Yang doesn't want to have a romantic relationship with them. No matter if he is hypocritical or sincere, as long as he doesn't touch fish, he can talk about anything.
It's a pity that he thought so, but this group of people didn't think so. They were all frightened and showed their loyalty.
In this regard, Xu Yang did not say much, and directly set the tone: "The laws are in place, and they must be implemented once they are established. How can they be invalidated? You are now free. It is up to you to decide whether you want to stay or go. There is no distinction between teachings in the Taoist Academy, and anyone who is willing can enter."
After saying that, he looked at Shi Jinglong and others: "You are also ordinary, your punishment has been fixed, and you can return to freedom after reeducation through labor."
"this……"
Shi Jinglong was startled, and the four people in Changqing Palace were also shocked and doubtful.
These divine Venerables can actually reeducate themselves through labor to atone for their sins and regain their freedom?
Is it posturing?
Or sincerely?
For a while, it was difficult for the five people to make a conclusion.
Xu Yang didn't care about that. He looked down at the crowd and said directly: "That's it, let's go our separate ways!"
After that, he flicked his sleeves and the clouds and mist disappeared.
Everyone stood on the ground in shock, and it took a long time for them to react.
"Tao Master, is this what you want?"
Mo Bufan looked stunned, then stood up in surprise.
"Forgive us as prisoners, and then introduce us to Wan Dao Palace. From then on, we will be Wan Dao Child's brothers and disciples of the Academy?"
"That's it, that's it!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to enter the Wan Dao Palace. This life will be in vain!"
Mo Bufan danced for a while, completely ignoring the astonished looks of others, and laughed loudly before leaving.
After a while, everyone reacted in full, with different expressions and various emotions.
And on the other side...
In the Wandao Academy renovated from Evergreen Palace.
"Ancestor Emperor!"
Su Shaoqing came forward and asked respectfully: "People from various families are waiting in the side hall. Do you want to meet them?"
"No need."
Xu Yang looked at her, chuckled and said, "I accept it all, you decide how to arrange it."
"this……"
Su Shaoqing frowned slightly when he heard this.
Since ancient times, taking sides has been a science.
Since the two paths of black and white, the demon sect Sacred Land has shrunk and stood firm, leaving a large area without an owner, and the Wandao Academy has announced to the world that it has taken the name of righteousness, many people have come to seek refuge, hoping to gain a share of the merit of serving the dragon.
The composition of these people is also very complex.
Some of them directly used the name of "Tianwu Legacy" and "Descendants of the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign", and even had a relationship with her.
There are also some people, although they are more restrained, but they also say that they are Tianwu supporters, and come to seek refuge in the names of "Tianwu Association", "Tianwu Sect", "Tianwu Gang", etc., openly and secretly acting like "one of their own".
The last group of people are from various forces, and even some branches of the Shenwu inheritance. They have the idea of one family standing on two teams. No matter what the final result is, they can ensure that the inheritance will not be destroyed, and even the family will prosper.
Don't put your eggs in one basket, this has always been the truth of "taking sides".
But in Su Shaoqing's view, such behavior was completely speculative.
In the past, when everyone was shouting for beating and killing, why were there not so many Tianwu remnants seen?
When the ancestor was in danger from the enemy, why didn't he see so many descendants of the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign, loyal supporters?
Now that the situation has been established, all of them have appeared, that descendant of Tianwu, the legacy of the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign?
What is this if not speculation?
It is true that some of them are the descendants of Tianwu, descendants of the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign, true supporters and even die-hard loyalists of the ancestor. They did not come to seek refuge before because they had nowhere to seek refuge. After all, the ancestor was guerrillas everywhere and his whereabouts were erratic. If you can't find the great god's martial arts inheritance, how can they come to vote?
However, this cannot change the overall nature of these people. Most of them are those who follow the wind, and some even harbor evil intentions and have bad intentions.
In this regard, Su Shaoqing's original plan was to be more cautious, to screen carefully, and only to choose those who were sincere.
But now Xu Yang refuses no one and is ready to accept them all.
This made Su Shaoqing a little worried: "Emperor Ancestor, there may be people with evil intentions among these people!"
"so what?"
Xu Yang smiled and didn't care at all: "It doesn't matter what the deeds are, as long as the deeds are good, there is no reason to criticize the crime. Now is the time to employ people, there is no reason to turn them away, accept them, and then commit suicide." There are arrangements."
"This is!"
Although he had doubts in his heart, after he said this, Su Shaoqing couldn't say any more and could only lower his head and answer.
Seeing her like this, Xu Yang shook his head and enlightened: "People's hearts are intolerable, and factional disputes are inevitable. But as a superior, you must suppress these disputes within a certain limit. You can have them, but you cannot exceed them." "People's hearts can be private, but they cannot abolish the public service because of private interests, let alone break the law for profit, do you understand?"
"..."
Su Shaoqing was startled and raised his head, his beautiful eyes filled with astonishment.
Then he woke up, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said repeatedly: "Young Master has made a big mistake, please punish me."
"stand up."
Xu Yang shook his head, helped her up with his bare hands, and said calmly: "People's hearts are selfish. This is natural and unavoidable. Today, the Wandao Academy has been established, and the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign has become a thing of the past. If you don't want to If you leave, then I can divide a territory, let you re-establish the state, inherit the throne, and repay your Su Family's achievements, how about it?"
"Young Master, you don't dare!"
These words made Su Shaoqing even more frightened, and she quickly shook her head: "Shaoqing only wants to be by the side of the ancestor!"
Seeing her like this, Xu Yang just smiled and said comfortingly: "Then you still have a lot to learn, so that you can take on important responsibilities. Although I cannot grant you the honor of empress, in this Ten Thousand Dao Academy, there are many You, Su Shaoqing, have a place."
Su Shaoqing finally calmed down, but he was still a little frightened: "The emperor's love for me, Shaoqing will definitely remember it in your heart."
Xu Yang shook his head and said softly: "You don't have to be so restrained with me, and you don't have to put those irrelevant things on your shoulders. Doing so will only make you lose yourself and hinder your practice."
"Young Master...understand!"
Su Shaoqing nodded, his eyes still a little confused, and he didn't know if he really understood.
Seeing this, Xu Yang stopped talking and let herself understand it slowly.
In fact, she didn't make any big mistakes. She just had a little bit of thematic thinking and regarded herself as the head of Tianwu's legacy. She somewhat rejected and even resisted other Tianwu's legacy. The descendants of the Great Zhou Divine Sovereign came to seek refuge.
In short, she is afraid that she will "fall out of favor!"
She may not even be aware of this subjective idea.
Xu Yang didn't blame him too much for this, because people's hearts are like this, and not everyone can understand it.
Although I don't blame her, I want to remind her that Xu Yang still values her very much. I really don't want her to put all the burdens of the family on herself, lose herself, hinder her spiritual practice, or even make mistakes...
However, she needs to understand these by herself. If she understands clearly, then Xu Yang will not mind giving her the control of the Ten Thousand Dao Academy and training a "female empress" to preside over the stage.
Whether it's an emperor or a Dao Monarch, although this level of Supreme status is coveted and even coveted by people, it doesn't have much appeal to Xu Yang.
Cultivation, enlightenment, and transcendence are his fundamental pursuits, but he really can't let go, otherwise he would be too lazy to care about so many things.
He has no interest at all in being an emperor or a Taoist master, he just doesn't like having someone over his head to control him.
Going a step further and returning to the topic, there is actually no need to think too much about the Tianwu legacy and the various parties coming to vote for it.
It doesn't matter whether they are deeds or intentions, whether they take sides or speculate, what matters is what they can do and what they will do.
Xu Yang has never thought about it, so everyone follows him wholeheartedly, and they don't mind if his subordinates have other ideas.
After all, it's not illegal to think, as long as they don't do it and create value for him, then what they think is their business.
Xu Yang only needs to ensure that they can create value and will not become a hidden danger and harm the whole. This is enough.
This is also very simple. After the laws are established and the system is perfected, it will be a big melting pot. These people are like firewood. When they invest in it, they will exert their value. Even if they have different intentions, they will be gradually assimilated by this huge melting pot, or destroyed and swallowed up. .
Therefore, Xu Yang does not need to worry about any trouble these people will bring to him. Under the legal system of Wandao Academy, they are just firewood and have no choice but to burn.
After the burning reaches a certain level, even if they still want to rebel, the people around them, and even themselves, will kill this dissent!
This is the general trend, majestic and unstoppable!
If you don’t believe it, just watch…
