Chapter 45: I Am the Canon, I Am the Doctrine
Without waiting for Peng Yingyu and others to reply, Xu Qian asked himself and answered: "Actually, it is very simple. There is only one reason why my religion was spread from Persia and spread in China: my religion meets people's expectations for a better life. Hope, people see a good life in it."

Peng Yingyu, Dai Qisi, Yang Xiao, Yin Tianzheng and the others were taken aback for a moment, and after careful consideration, they found that although Xu Qian's words were straightforward, they were indeed true.

"Isn't that why you all joined my teaching?"

"I am dissatisfied with this world, dissatisfied with the Tartars, dissatisfied with corrupt officials, and want to change all these and create a better world to live in, so I joined my religion?"

"What is Mingzun? According to my religion, Mingzun is the god of fire and goodness!"

"Fire can burn filth and illuminate darkness, so Mingzun is the god of fire, and Mingzun is a god of goodness. It is not that Mingzun himself is 'good', but represents our pursuit of goodness!"

While Peng Yingyu, Dai Qisi and others were thinking, Xu Qian finally revealed what he really wanted to say.

"So, I think the real goal of my teaching is to create a good world, so that people in the world can live a good life, no longer suffer from hunger and cold, no longer be oppressed by corrupt officials, and can eat well, dress well, and marry well. Daughter-in-law, can afford to go to school, can afford to be cured..."

These have not been realized in later generations, but it does not prevent Xu Qian from showing them to Peng Yingyu and others.

Xu Qian said again: "Xu thinks this is the real purpose of our teaching in the world, and it is also the real enlightenment given to us by Mingzun. Mingzun wants us to lead the world to live a better life, not let them live a better life." It’s not about making them worse than us!”

Speaking of this, Xu Qian became more and more excited. He stood up, stretched his hands high, and shouted loudly: "Wei, Mingzun, Shengzai, Mingzun!"

Peng Yingyu and others looked at Xu Qian, as if seeing light shining from his face.

Influenced by Xu Qian, several people also stood up and shouted in unison: "Weizai, Mingzun, holy, Mingzun!"

Even the white ape standing on Xu Qian's left followed suit, screaming.

While shouting, Zhou Zhiruo slandered in her heart: "Master is talking nonsense and deceiving people again!" '

She guessed wrong this time, what Xu Qian said was really not a lie.

He really wants people in this world to live better, but his motive is not to make people live better, but only when people live well can more talents study martial arts and create the martial arts he wants prosperity.

For most people, when even having enough food and clothing is a luxury, talk to him about studying and learning martial arts, and see if he spits on you.

When survival becomes the first priority, many things are meaningless (of course it does not rule out the kind of strong-willed ideals)!

After shouting, it was Yang Xiao who was the smartest, and was the first to say: "It turns out that the true meaning of my teachings is so. Yang has never been able to comprehend it, and I feel ashamed. Thank you, the leader, for telling me!"

'Give the surname Yang the first! '

Dai Qisi cursed secretly, and hurriedly said: "After listening to the words of the leader today, Dai Qisi knows how shallow she is, thank you, the leader!"

With these two leaders, Yin Tianzheng also sighed: "What the leader said is reasonable. My teaching is not the teaching of one person, not the teaching of 100 or 1000 people, but the teaching of the world. It should be for the benefit of the world, not just for one family. one person."

Zhou Dian said: "The leader proposes to abolish the clause of 'the congregation should not drink meat and drink' in the canon. I support it! Anyone who refuses to agree is an enemy of me!"

After all, Zhou Dian took a special look at Peng Yingyu, thinking that even if you and I are both scattered people, I will turn against you at that time.

"Brother Zhou, don't do this."

Xu Qian reassured Zhou Dian: "Actually, I proposed to abolish this article for the sake of teaching. You have traveled all over the world, have you ever noticed a phenomenon?"

"Master, what phenomenon?" Zhou Dian asked curiously.

Xu Qian said: "Those who eat meat are stronger and more powerful than those who don't eat meat!"

Wei Yixiao, Yin Tianzheng and the others thought about it carefully, and found that it is true that meat-eaters are generally stronger and stronger than non-meat-eaters.

But Peng Yingyu retorted: "Master, what you said is wrong. I don't eat meat, and Shaolin monks don't eat meat either. Their bodies will be weak and their strength will be weak?"

Xu Qian smiled and said: "I'm talking about the same physical conditions, one person eats meat and the other doesn't. Brother Peng mentioned that he and the Shaolin monks, although you don't eat meat, you eat a lot. The vegetarian food you eat in each meal is How can you not be strong if you eat several times more meat, take medicinal food, and take medicinal baths to train your body?"

Seeing that Peng Yingyu wanted to refute, Xu Qian said, "If brother Peng doesn't believe me, I can make a bet with you..."

"What bet?"

Xu Qian said: "I and you each choose a hundred people with similar physical conditions. My 100 people eat meat, and your 100 people can't eat meat. After one month, the two sides will compete and the winner will be justified. How about it?"

Xu Qian proposed this experiment not only to convince Peng Yingyu, but also to show other Mingjiao disciples.

Like Peng Yingyu, there are quite a few people in the Ming Cult who stick to the rules and the laws of their ancestors are immutable. If you want to convince these people, you can't rely on words alone, you must let them see the actual effect.

Human nature seeks profit, as long as they see the benefits, they will take the initiative to participate without saying a word.

Confucius said: "The people can be made to let them know, but Xu Qian thinks it is possible to add another sentence: "If the people can't be used, they can be lured."

Peng Yingyu said: "Then follow what the leader said!"

"To protect justice, during this month, these 200 people are not allowed to practice martial arts, eat medicinal food, or take medicinal baths... they can only eat meat or vegetarian every day according to the standards of ordinary people."

Xu Qian gave the restrictions for this gambling fight. If there were no restrictions, Peng Yingyu would give him 100 people to nourish with medicated diet and use medicated baths to train their bodies every day. After a month, Xu Qian might not be able to win.

Peng Yingyu agreed without even thinking about it. He didn't think he would lose. After all, he had been a vegetarian for so many years, and so did his subordinates.

Xu Qian's first proposal ended in a gambling fight with Peng Yingyu. On the surface, Xu Qian made a concession, but in fact his goal has been achieved.

Proposing to abolish the clause "Congregants should not eat meat and wine" in the teaching rules is not only because Xu Qian wants Mingjiao disciples to eat meat to become stronger, but Xu Qian also wants to gain the right to speak about Mingjiao teachings and regulations.

It's boring to be a leader who is restricted by doctrines and rules. What Xu Qian wants to do is "what I say is the rules, and what I say is the doctrine."

Other leaders are bound by the canons and doctrines, and Xu Qian is in turn bound by the canons and doctrines.

Which one is better, needless to say!

Mingjiao was spread from Persia to Middle-earth. There are positive aspects that benefit Xu Qian, but there are also many dross that are unfavorable to Xu Qian.

If you don't try to erase the negative side, is Xu Qian using Mingjiao, or Mingjiao using Xu Qian?
If a person like Peng Yingyu continues to cling to the so-called canon and doctrine after the result of the gambling, Xu Qian has no choice but to use some means to make him disappear physically.
