Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 649 The Kingdom of the Human Body

Bevin deeply loathed the harsh world described in the "Huangji Jingshi Jue," yet he was bound by its rigorous logic.

He had to admit that every piece of knowledge in the book seemed correct... at least he couldn't see any mistakes.

Inspired by the "Huangji Jingshi Jue".

Through the comparison between the body and society, he even came to understand the human body.

A weak stomach leads to spleen stagnation, spleen stagnation leads to liver depletion, liver depletion leads to heart failure, and heart failure leads to internal organ burnout. Among these factors, the stomach represents the productivity of ordinary people, the spleen represents resource allocation, the liver represents the aristocracy, and the heart represents the central nervous system of the monarch.

National guards are like the human immune system.

However, if the guards are too numerous, the fighting capacity will be weakened, and if the war drags on, the nation's strength will be exhausted.

Therefore, a nation should be like a fully drawn bow: if it is not released, the string will slacken; if it is not released for a long time, the bow will break. Only by keeping the people constantly on edge, as if walking on thin ice, can we obtain a fierce army and ensure that the nation is not exhausted.

When people are hungry, they only seek to fill their stomachs; once they are full, all sorts of desires arise. Therefore, when people's stomachs are often empty, their minds are simple.

—This is the essence of strengthening the nation by weakening the people!

The same applies to the human body: when people are overfed, both good and bad cells split, and the bad cells grow secretly, eventually leading to serious illness.

When the body is half-starved, good and evil cells compete for food. The evil cells weaken and die, while the good cells survive and grow stronger, ultimately keeping the body healthy as before.

The same principle applies to a nation: when the people are constantly hungry, the wicked will naturally be eliminated!

Therefore: if the body is weak but the bones are strong, the person is strong; if the people are weak but the army is strong, the country is strong.

To make a country strong, it is necessary to weaken, impoverish, exhaust, humiliate, and keep its people ignorant.

These are...the Five Arts of Governing the People!

……

Is it reasonable?

That makes perfect sense!

By the time Bevin reached the end, he was even a little confused about whether the subsequent content was written in the book or was his own summary.

—His thinking was in sync with the "Huangji Jingshi Jue".

But... is this right?

Bevan can't tell them apart at all!

His basic knowledge and reasoning process are impeccable. By referring to the knowledge in "Huangji Jingshi Jue" and comparing it with the real situation, Beiwen has even mastered the three key techniques for treating diseases.

Initially: control nutrition, cut off the enemy's food supply, and force the enemy's morale to deplete itself.

The Chinese approach involves scorching the earth to purify evil, destroying localized areas to trap and kill the evil, and employing a war of attrition by sacrificing pawns to save the king.

Final stage: Resource allocation, mobilizing the body's vital energy to rebuild order, and centralized redistribution of resources.

Bevin can achieve these three steps by controlling his diet and learning about acupoints, and he is already capable of becoming a barefoot witch doctor in the countryside.

If a master had written down the "Thirteen Deadly Needles of the Ghost Gate" earlier, but had not yet deduced it, he would not have been an exaggeration to be called a divine doctor!

Based on this, if we continue to study the effects of interactions between different organs, the range of diseases that can be treated can be greatly increased!

But why is the theory of governance derived from such a miraculous book so cruel?

Bevin's emotions and reason are in fierce conflict.

……

"Master...the most rational national structure...why...why is it like this?" Bevin murmured.

Yaro put down the research manuscript of "Summoning the Treant Guardian" and looked at his disciple, who was looking lost in the candlelight.

"If you don't like it, then why do you think it's the most rational national structure?"

Bevin's pupils reflected the candlelight as he said in a trembling voice:

"Because...because of the human body...Master, the human body is a perfect structure! The *Huangji Jingshi Jue* applies this perfection to the way of governing a country..."

not good!

Bevin seems to be going crazy too!

Yaro interrupted abruptly:

"Who says the human body has the most perfect structure?"

"Who says a structural model of the human body can be equated with a nation?"

"Who says that the principles that connect to the human body are the most correct principles?"

Yaro's three sentences were exactly what Bevin was thinking.

Bevin suddenly realized, and asked hesitantly, "No...isn't that right?"

"Of course not!"

Yaro reassured him.

Bevin asked urgently, "Then why isn't it?"

The "Huangji Jingshi Jue" was originally an internal cultivation technique written by his master. Since his master said he had misunderstood it, he naturally believed it.

Yaro countered, "Bevin, you just said that the human body is the most perfect structure, but the human body can neither fly in the sky like a bird nor swim in the water like a fish."

They will get hungry, thirsty, sick, injured, grow old, and die...

Tell me, where does the perfection of the human body lie?

"This... I don't know." Bevin was also confused.

Yaro continued, "You don't know, because you grew up in human society and haven't encountered much danger, when making judgments, you subconsciously carry the arrogance of 'human supremacy,' which is why you think that whatever resembles a human is strong."

"This idea itself is not wrong. After all, people can't forget their roots. It is their most authentic nature to regard the tribe that nurtured them as their foundation. But we cannot mistake this innate preference for the only law to measure all things in the world."

"Especially when we are doing research and designing internal skills, one is one and two is two. We must not mix in our own subjective assumptions, otherwise the final product will inevitably have fatal deviations."

Bevin seemed to understand something.

However, Koyal's answer did not address the three rhetorical questions he had just posed.

Those three rhetorical questions were the key reason why Bevin believed the "Huangji Jingshi Jue" was effective, and also his biggest doubts at the moment.

When Bevin asked again, Yaro smiled.

"Firstly, the very concept of the most perfect structural model is actually a false proposition!"

"Different factors and different goals can lead to completely different conclusions. A perfect social structure model needs to be analyzed in conjunction with the specific environment, resources, and the goals of the creators."

"Moreover, even if a design is created, in reality it may be a difference between (0.999...) and (1). It can only approach the target infinitely, and it is almost impossible to obtain an absolute perfection."

Bevin frowned.

His experience is not yet sufficient to understand this principle.

However, he quickly remembered something and hurriedly took out a pen and paper from his pocket... A bad pen is worse than a good memory!

Yarrow continued, "The second question is that there is a fundamental difference between the human body and the state!"

"Because every person has thoughts and is an independent individual!"

"Human cells, organs, and internal organs do not possess independent will!"

"If you were deep in a swamp and encountered a nine-headed poisonous lizard, your leg bone would be crushed, the venom would spread rapidly, and there would be no antidote or reinforcements. Would you die on the spot, or immediately sever the poisoned leg?"

"Trading the smallest possible physical injury for the survival of an individual in dire circumstances is a perfectly reasonable choice!"

"But that won't work at the national level!"

"Because humans are beings with souls! They have love and hate, ambition, the ruthlessness of betrayal, and the fervor of sacrifice! They will fight tooth and nail for the ownership of a piece of land, and travel thousands of miles for the life of a stranger's child! They can go through fire and water for divine pronouncements, and be moved to tears by a single line of poetry!"

"A nation is the product of collaboration among different individuals!"

"Treat individuals with kindness, and they will shed their blood for you; treat individuals with malice, and they will retaliate with weapons!"

Therefore, while incorporating human anatomy into a national model isn't impossible, it's extremely difficult to sustain in the long run!

……

"As for the third question... actually, the current kingdom can also be explained using the human body."

"real?"

Bevin suddenly looked up.

"certainly!"

Yaro said softly, "The royal family is the head, the nobles are the hands, the commoners are the legs, and the serfs are the feet... What do you think?"
