MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 734 Deformed Society (Part 2)
Although weird and incomprehensible, it is not incomprehensible. Perhaps, the aristocratic family that has risen through the study of rune technology is precisely because of too much emphasis on rune technology, which has led to the slow development of politics, humanities and imagination.
The family respects the runes as the supreme avenue, the foundation of heaven and earth. The first thing all the children do since they are sensible is to study the runes. If the rune is the technology tree that the human civilization of Earth No. 4 has climbed, then the family is a small society composed of scientific researchers, and the Rune Continent is dominated by small scientific research societies. The speed of nature is so slow that there is a span of thousands of years from a semi-slavery society to a feudal society.
"I heard you say that you have been in the Fu Pavilion for six years, you don't hear anything outside the window, you only read the sage books, and you think you are a Fu idiot who only knows rune and knows nothing about it." Most of the delicacies have been wiped out, Yang Xiaoqian put down his chopsticks and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to know a lot about history."
Mo Huan was obviously very satisfied with the evaluation of "don't hear things out of the window, and only read only the books of sages", and smiled reservedly: "Master Xuezong always says that people who don't understand history will always repeat history, if you want to break through the century-old tribe , the boundaries of the millennium family's, we must first understand the history of the family and the tribe, and learn from their rise and fall."
"It's amazing." Yang Xiaoqian exclaimed from the bottom of his heart. Through the explanations of Mo Huan and Lingyi, he learned that Xue Zong is the top administrator of the clan school, and his status is second only to Mo Zong. He is a vested interest in a deformed society. At the same time, he is also a researcher who is obsessed with the mysteries of runes. It is indeed a rare talent to have such a thought and vision far beyond the times.
"Lord Xuezong is the person I admire the most. If there is no melee caused by the dispute between the veils, Lord Xuezong will definitely be able to unite the major families and point out a new direction for the family. At that time, the mere Daming will be afraid. What a pity..." Mo Huan sighed and covered his face in shame.
"This is a false proposition, there is no such possibility." The bystander is clear, Yang Xiaoqian can see the real reason for the war between the families at a glance, "Do you really think that the so-called battle of ideas is the main reason for the war?"
"Is not it?"
"Of course not. According to what you said, the war of obscurity lasted for 60 years before it led to the war. If the war of ideas really leads to war, then the war should have occurred long ago. Why wait for 60 years?" Yang Xiaoqian took the table from the table. Pick up a few empty dishes and keep them handy, then use the black mist to bring the soup bowl to the front of the dishes.
"This is an aristocratic family." Yang Xiaoqian pointed to the empty saucer, then pointed to the soup bowl and said, "This is a tribe."
After finishing speaking, Yang Xiaoqian scooped the soup into a plate with a spoon and said, "The family has eaten so much, you can replace the plate with a bowl."
Saying that, Yang Xiaoqian took off the plate, replaced it with a porcelain bowl, and continued to scoop the soup. Soon, several porcelain bowls were also filled with soup, and the soup bowl was now empty. Yang Xiaoqian dripped the last bit of soup into the bowl. In a small plate, placed in the middle of several porcelain bowls, and asked, "Okay, now that the tribe has become like this, what will the family eat?"
Mo Huan stared at the porcelain bowl and saucer for a long time, discolored in horror.
"Understood, the aristocratic family is dedicated to pursuing the Great Dao, but it has to eat the fireworks of the world. The demand for firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea must always be solved. When the clan and collateral children can no longer be exploited to feed the increasingly large blood-sucking worm of the family, when When the soup in the soup bowl is divided into several bowls, if you want to drink the soup, you will have to grab it from someone else's bowl. In the final analysis, this is the embodiment of the main contradiction in society, and the dispute over the cover is only the cause of the war. It's just an excuse."
Wars caused by unequal distribution of benefits or economic crises are not uncommon in the history of this world. After the real reason for the battle of Yang Xiaoqian's family, he wanted to know on a whim what kind of worldview people in another world have.
So Yang Xiaoqian asked again: "The dispute between the obscurity and the cover refers to the dispute caused by different concepts of the world, right? Can you be more specific?"
Mo Huan just realized that the family is not more noble than the clan, and his outlook on life is collapsing. He didn't reply for a while, and only after a few minutes did he forcefully smile: "I'm sorry, I lost my way."
"It's okay, let's talk about the Hun Gai dispute." Yang Xiaoqian knew that in the world of Mohuan, the names such as Hun Tian Shuo and Gai Tian Shuo were not necessarily adopted, but the two schools were selected by Lingyi after translation. It was just the corresponding vocabulary, and this made Yang Xiaoqian even more curious, because Huntian and Gaitian had both appeared in the history of this world.
"Okay, the Hungai dispute originated from a strange person." After finishing his thoughts, Mohuan began to tell about a legendary person in another world.
…………
Two hundred years ago, a precocious baby was born in Tongjia. He was literate at the age of one, read the scriptures at the age of three, and could write relatively simple runes at the age of five.
The Tong family was blessed with a genius and cultivated it carefully, but this early-wisdom prodigy named Tong Yi was not only not keen on studying the rune scriptures, but also questioned the Gaitian theory that has been recognized by all the masters and great masters since ancient times.
Such a rebellious act should have been dealt with by family law, but the Tong family cherished the child prodigy and did not punish him severely, just laughed it off.
Despite being reprimanded by Tongjia Xuezong, Tongyi still insists on his own opinion. He stubbornly believes that even if the whole world thinks it is right, it may be wrong.
Tongyi searched all the books that could be consulted, but never saw any ancestors who had put forward similar opinions. Therefore, in order to prove his point of view, Tongyi resolutely left the aristocratic family and took a few slaves to guide him with talismans. The direction, always moving forward in the same direction, alone across the wild land and the endless sea.
This is almost an act of seeking death, but Tongyi is determined, and it is futile for the Tong family to block her in every way.
Since then, the Tong family prodigy disappeared, and everyone thought that Tong Yi had become a feces in the belly of a demon, or a dead bone in the endless desert, but ten years later, Tong Yi actually returned to Rune Continent.
The Tong family was shocked, the major families were shocked, and Tong Yi himself was shocked.
Tongyi, who originally wanted to walk out of the "Tian Gai" to prove that Gai Tian was wrong, couldn't understand why he went in the same direction, but eventually returned to the same place.
No one wants to believe Tongyi's statement. Everyone thinks that Tongyi is just half-hearted. He hid in a tribe composed of wildlings for ten years, and then returned to Rune Continent in another direction.
The doubts of others did not trouble Tong Yi, what really tormented him was the incredible experience.
Why do you go back to the origin after walking through thousands of miles of rivers and mountains? Tongyi was puzzled until one day, he saw a pearl among the rare treasures that the tribe paid tribute.
