Dao fruit.

Amidst the rapidly changing light and shadow, Qiu Yan's consciousness was gradually immersed in that world.

This is not a real world, it is just pieced together by the spirit and perception of sages, and it is an illusory memory.

However, the scene presented by the memory is so real that Qiu Yan feels as if he has crossed the long river of history, upstream, and arrived at the era of "temporary punishment, no pre-establishment of law"

A hundred countries contend for the top, and a hundred schools of thought contend.

His consciousness is mixed in the world made up of phantom memories, like a flat boat in a strong wind, moving with it, experiencing various things, and receiving a lot of information.

This is an era of division, but also an era of bright light.

People in today's world can only understand that era from the records of the predecessors. It is far less straightforward and clear than Qiu Yan at this time. He is traveling in this memory world.

Here, he saw a scene that was not mentioned in the history books

Use etiquette instead of law!

In each country, the ruling class was built with blood as the bond. The rulers, royal family, nobles, and gentry occupied and monopolized power. "Punishment", there are "praise" and "reward", but the criterion is based on personal knowledge and experience.

Temporary punishment, no pre-establishment of the law.

When it happens, the criminal law is formulated temporarily, and there is no standard established in advance, and after it is implemented, it is only used as experience and can be used as a reference, and it does not become a definite rule.

The practice of taking personal will as the yardstick makes the ruler's authority unfathomable and unpredictable, and his power is unpredictable, because he can rely on his own will to arbitrarily make judgments on others. This kind of power is awe-inspiring, but it is also It's easy to get out of control.

Relying on this authority, the nobles can do whatever they want.Turning guilt into innocence, turning innocence into guilt, even matters involving human life, often depends on the mood of the rulers.

A thought to live, a thought to die, rain or shine.

This unfathomable power enveloped that era, like a shadow, everywhere.

But one day, a bolt of lightning broke through the fog of shadows.

The people of Zheng cast the punishment tripod.Cast all the legal provisions of the country on the tripod and make them public so that everyone in the world can know.

With this move, the criminal law has a standard, so that people in the world know that not only ordinary people must abide by it, but also nobles with blood ties must be restricted!

When the tripod stands, it will be a bolt from the blue!

China will soon be in turmoil.It has caused countless waves, after all, it has shaken the authority of the nobility, whether it is the ruler or several theories.All responded, including the later Xianxue

Confucianism.

Even the most sage master spoke out and reprimanded, thinking that this move violated the ancient system and was a violation of "rituals".

Confucianism at that time.It has not been perfected for more than a thousand years, and the content is relatively single. It advocates using ancient etiquette, righteousness, virtue, and faith as an example.Guide the people, and the people abide by these, the society will not be chaotic, and the world can be governed.

Some sages at that time said when discussing the punishment tripod, "The noble and the humble are not wronged, the so-called degree is also." Officials will have no scruples, dare to use the provisions of the law as the basis, and argue with the officials. In this way, it is impossible to govern the country well.

"The noble and the humble are disorderly, how can a country be established?"

Seeing this comment, Qiu Yan couldn't help laughing, guessing Han Yi's little thought.

"Even if they are sages and sages, their theories are respected by later generations and inspire countless people; their thoughts bloom in the past and present, and give the future generations a bright future; The limitations of the times."

In Qiu Yan's previous life, he often met some people who criticized the ancients for their "foolish loyalty" and "conservative" practices, but they never thought that if they put themselves in that era, they would be able to do something. What?

A master who has studied information technology can control the wind and rain on the Internet, but if it is placed decades ago, when the Internet has not yet emerged, and even the corresponding concept has not been produced, then the knowledge he has, the vision and Knowing, how useful can it be?

After all, people are limited by the times. It is unfair and imprecise to ridicule and evaluate the ancients by today's standards.

In the age of the sages, not to mention the imperial examinations, even the knowledge of the legal provisions was not established. There were only rulers, nobles, and gentry of various countries, high and low. Their blood can be traced back to the ancient kings. In the eyes of others, his high position certainly has legal rationale.

At that time, people did not have the concept of "being an official through imperial examinations". For them, there was a difference between high and low, and it was only right and proper.

In the face of this kind of cognition of all peoples, even if a person is pedantic about heaven and man, and knows everything about astronomy and geography, what can he do?

However, Xing Ding broke the rules.

Its appearance brought chaos to the order of that era, which required a brand-new order system to restrain this chaos, thus attracting contention among a hundred schools of thought and showing their magical powers. The theories of each school changed with time, urging the scholars at that time Constantly improving and trying, this has created the world of sages and sages.

Of course, Xingding is only one of the reasons for the Great Controversy, besides this, there are many other factors.

Looking at that turbulent era, Qiu Yan, as a bystander, also felt a sense of turmoil in his chest, and a feeling emerged in his heart.

"Destroy and then build, the history of humanity is in this cycle, constantly moving forward..."

While comprehending, he also had a deeper understanding of the sage's propositions, and there was a faint tendency to jump out of the Confucian perspective and look at it from other perspectives, which gradually changed his Taoism.

In this way, Qiu Yan was immersed in the memory of the memory world, comprehending the deep meaning of this passage of Legalism, feeling the proposition of the Fasheng who wrote these words, and soon had a deeper understanding.

"It turns out that this law is made public, which has another meaning. It is to prevent the people from making mistakes unintentionally. If they are pardoned at that time, the majesty of the law will be damaged. If it is strictly enforced, others will be killed in vain. For this reason, it should be made public, and the words should be as simple as possible, not to pile up rhetoric, so that people can understand the meaning at a glance."

Looking at it and thinking about it, the meaning of this sentence became completely clear.

"The law is not intended to disrupt order, nor is it intended to punish and oppress others. On the contrary, after it is made public, people will feel fear and keep people from breaking the law!"

As soon as this thought came out, the entire memory world shook, and those pictures dissipated and turned into seal characters, flying and circling, gathering together, still surrounding Qiu Yan's soul, but the spirit inside was more and more similar to his soul , and finally integrated into it.

Immediately afterwards, Qiu Yan's spirit rose and turned into a bookshelf form, condensing this legalist spirit into a scroll of bamboo slips, and taking [-]% of the spirit into it, all the functions of the earth soul were integrated into it, becoming the foundation of supernatural powers.

Afterwards, his soul visibly swelled, and his heart became even more angry.

"I have just congealed my soul, and the next step is to strengthen my soul, try to connect with flesh and blood, and when my soul can withstand the flow of qi and blood, and connect with my heart fire, I can advance to the second level of soul cultivation in the return to unity state."

After thinking about it, his fascination turned and he returned to his senses. Qiu Yan trembled all over, opened his eyes, and looked down at the bamboo slips on the table.

"Compared with the previous two times, collecting the manuscripts of sages and sages this time didn't take too much effort, and didn't experience too many troubles. They naturally blended into the spirit and watched the memory. Only with the experience of controlling the demon avatar and more fine-grained control of perception can we achieve it in one fell swoop."

While thinking about it, Qiu Yan glanced at the words on the bamboo slips, feeling the spirit in them, and when he saw the content of the "mind technique", his heart moved.

"In this manuscript, the content about the magic can be consistent with the order of the heaven and the earth, but the part related to the mind is just perception. It can be seen that although the Legalists are divided into "magic forces", they are in line with the development of humanity and can unite the people. Wish, but only the 'law' part, this point, we need to study in depth in the future."

With this in mind, Qiu Yan set up a general direction for his academic research, rolled up the bamboo slips, put them back into the box, and closed it again.

At this time, it was getting late, and it took him some time to enter into the text and comprehend the memory world. Fortunately, Hu Qi and Dai Guo knew the seriousness, and even though the meal was over, they didn't come to disturb.

"In old Xiangguo Han's study, he taught me a lot, and I benefited a lot. Now I have a book of sage spirit, which not only increases my cultivation, but also gives me a new understanding of humanity, which is not a small favor. If there is an opportunity in the future, I still have to return the favor of the Han family."

Thinking of this, Qiu Yan seemed to be casually walking and pacing in the room, and slowly approached the window.

suddenly!

Snapped!

When he moved his foot, the entire sole of his foot swelled!shrink!An astonishing force broke out, the whole person disappeared in place, appeared by the window, raised his hand and pushed!

call!

The window was pushed open by him, and there was a soft sound outside!

I saw a palm-sized sparrow flapping its wings, ready to fly.

"In winter, a sparrow is standing outside the window. Is it true that Qiu can't figure out what's going on inside?" As he said, Qiu Yan's hand that pushed the window forward grabbed it, and the force of suction burst out in the palm of his hand. The flying sparrow immediately lost its altitude, spinning and falling towards Qiu Yan's palm!

However, when the sparrow was about to fall to the hand, there was a "pop", and the whole body was scattered, disintegrated, divided into several parts, and then vibrated separately, broken into powder, and would disperse with the wind as soon as the wind blows !

A wisp of divine power fluctuated and floated out from the powder.

"Huh? Good trick!" Qiu Yan sneered, his hands didn't move, the strength and true energy gathered in the palm of his hand, and the absorption power suddenly increased!

call!

The scattered powder instantly reversed and was drawn to gather in the palm of the hand!
