Chapter 435 The War to End All Wars
"Is sympathy... there is!" Li Xian looked at Suiren and said word by word, "But, in the world of the country and the country, in this world where 'no eternal friendship, only eternal interests', the biggest sin is weakness. Because of weakness, you will be bullied. Therefore, if you are bullied, you cannot blame others for being too strong.
In fact, those weak countries do not have no chance to be strong, but they have given up their chance to be strong.
When other countries see opportunities and work hard to develop, they sit down and watch.
When other countries are pioneering and moving forward bravely, they are lazy.
When other countries are willing to sacrifice bloodshed and reform and strive for strength, they are enjoying themselves and losing themselves in luxury.
Then, when other countries invade, they can only wail and complain. But what's the use!
I sympathize with these weak countries, but I lament even more. There is a stone tablet at the entrance of the Shangguo Spark University. If it is engraved on it, will the master know?"
Suiren didn't pay attention to Shang. Bixia Yuanjun spoke: "I mourn his misfortune and angered him for not fighting."
Li Xian took a deep breath and continued, "Yes, sad for his misfortune and angered his failure to fight. This was an incident when the Shang Kingdom was just established. After that, there were no weak people in Shang. I mean the spiritual aspect.
The significance of a country lies in unity and strength together; if a country cannot forge ahead, cannot benefit the people and the people at home, and cannot establish the majesty and glory of the country outside, what is the purpose of such a country!
I want to say that those weak countries are the root of chaos.”
Li Xian said while walking in the hall, passionately, "Master, Li Xian is brave. May I ask: If there is only one country in the world, will there be wars?"
"That's impossible!" Suiren seemed to have a good temper.
"So, if the world is full of weak countries, will the world be peaceful?"
"It should be..." Suiren was not very clear. The national era is also an era that needs to be explored for saints.
"No!" Li Xian said loudly, with a very affirmative tone, "If the world is full of weak countries, countless ambitionists will inevitably breed. For these ambitious people, countless weak countries are their stage and their opportunity. The war will continue, and even more."
This time, Suiren was successfully pissed by Li Xian and laughed: "So, how can we eliminate the war? What does this have to do with the current development, strategies, etc. of your Shang Dynasty?"
Li Xian stood firm and said seriously: "If you want to eliminate war, you need civilization to continue to progress and enter a real stage of civilization. This stage is the direction for Shang Dynasty to work for.
A truly civilized world will have no war, no famine, no crime, everyone will be free and equal, and everyone can fight for their dreams. Just like the Shang Kingdom today. Of course, the Shang Kingdom will continue to work hard.
But if such a civilized world is to come, one must overthrow the old world. But the old world will not collapse on its own, and war will inevitably occur in every era.
Master, since war is inevitable, we must face it bravely. There is a saying that goes, beating is kissing and scolding is love. I hope that we can start a "war that ends all wars" and use a war to reshape a bright world.
This world is cruel, the strong prey on the weak, and the fittest survives.
But we are intelligent lives, we cannot be driven by instinct. We need ideals and need to fight for them. The world is cruel, but we can transcend cruelty and build civilization."
Li Xian's words suddenly made everyone silent. Yes, war is inevitable, and the long history of the heaven has proved this countless times. Every 100,000 years, no more than 150,000 years, there will inevitably be a war that swept the entire heaven, which everyone calls it - Quantity Calamity.
What is the specific cause of the catastrophe? In fact, there are many different opinions. The conflict between the laws of heaven, human, and resources is certainly part of it, but it obviously cannot explain the causes of all catastrophes. Catastrophe is like a curse in the heaven, inevitable and eternal reincarnation.
Now, Li Xian actually shouted that he wanted to "a war to end all wars", which shocked Suiren. The most important thing is that some theories proposed by Li Xian were thought-provoking.
As for Li Xian, he waited for a while and continued: "Spring silkworms turned into butterflies and needed to break out of their cocoon and be reborn. To welcome the dawn, we need to walk through the night.
Master, being reborn from the cocoon is destined to experience pain. But we cannot stop moving forward just because we are afraid of pain.
In fact, I think that every disaster is an opportunity for civilization to progress, but because of fear, we can't move forward, and those sacrifices are in vain.
The development of civilization is a continuous advancement of the divine beast. If it cannot break through the cocoon, it will impact again and again until it breaks through, or... disappears!
I think this is the real internal cause of the catastrophe!”
Li Xian's analysis made Suiren suddenly shock; he waved his hand and asked Li Xian to speak temporarily. He slowly leaned on the chair, closed his eyes and pondered.
What exactly is the cause of the calamity? Over the past countless years, saints have done countless discussions, including some peak quasi-saints, etc. Everyone has also discussed many reasons and wants to prevent the calamity from happening, but it is not satisfactory. This can only explain the reason why everyone is discussing... is wrong!
As a saint, Suiren understands the truth of heaven that is “inaction”. In other words, the truth of heaven will not consciously guide any calamity, so the true cause of the calamity and the core factor is not the law of heaven.
The widely circulated saying "The way of heaven loses the excess and is not enough to serve the excess, and the way of human beings conflicts, so the way of heaven and human beings conflicts" certainly makes sense, but it is not the core. When the way of heaven and human beings conflict, it can basically be said that there is something wrong with human beings. And this "wrong" is the core. But the saints cannot figure out what this "wrong" is.
Until today, Li Xian’s speech made Suiren feel like a thunderbolt tearing through the haze, making Suiren suddenly have a little shocking understanding: Perhaps we were too careful in the past and had not made a big move forward!
Saints are also human beings, not really ruthless. They also have their own disciples, etc., and the number of disasters is not what saints want to see. Moreover, every 100,000 years, there will be a world war, and the world will be destroyed and depressed, and the saints' practice will also be affected. Therefore, in the past, saints would interfere in the war in the late stage of the war, allowing the war to gradually calm down.
Now, the divisions of the immortal world, the demon world, the Buddha world, the demon world, and the central Daluotian are all made by the saints through continuous exploration, which is most conducive to weakening the war.
But now it seems that it is wrong.
