Chapter 1236 The Taoist starts a new city, causing suspicion between the two tribes

Seeing the disciples of Yiqi Sect and the familiar Taoist uniforms, long-sleeved hats and fluttering coats, Wu Yi hesitated for a long time, and finally pretended not to see them, turned around and left. Now is not the time to meet each other. interests do not completely coincide with their interests.

With the efforts of the Taoists, a city was built on this windy and snowy land. The Taoists named it "New City", which was extremely simple. However, the Taoists interpreted the word "new" as "old land new". It means "return".

Before the catastrophe of the land and sea in the upper realm, the land where the Great Extreme Dynasty was located was the western part of the original land. Because during the catastrophe, the spiritual energy was lost and the death energy was overflowing, it was split by the great power. It was precisely because of the immortal way. Leave the scene, and then someone appears humanely.

Now because of a snowstorm, the humane forces have withdrawn, and the Taoist forces have once again established their own strength on this land, openly, please note, openly. How can we not let these people's hearts surge, and be unable to restrain themselves?

Although it is only a corner of the border, it is the first step taken in thousands of years, signaling the return of immortal rule. Just like raising a banner in the rebellious army, monks scattered all over the country have been affected. Break away from the humanitarian system and participate in the construction of the new city.

The secrets are becoming more and more chaotic, and the situation is becoming more and more turbulent, but this is not necessarily a bad thing.

The Taoist sect has spent a lot of effort to build a series of magic formations. Naturally, it is impossible for others to use them for free. Many restrictions must be added. Among other things, the right to enter and exit the formations must not be granted lightly. If someone who should not be released is released Coming in, it was a disaster.

However, Wu Yi and others are all Taichu Golden Immortals. With the cooperation of several ferocious beasts, even Taiyi Immortal may not be unable to fight. Therefore, these restrictions naturally cannot stop Wu Yi and others from breaking out directly.

Sensing the aura of Wu Yi and others, the Taoist disciples did not try to catch up, but only stepped up their efforts to improve the formation to avoid similar things from happening in the future.

After a snowstorm, Emperor Daji conquered the northern tribes. The people returned to their hearts and their prestige was boundless. He began the process of expansion, and the immortal way also took the opportunity to replace the human way and establish its own rule.

Wu Yi began to suspect that this snowstorm was somewhat unusual. However, there was no evidence, just suspicion. In the foreseeable future, it would be difficult to find so-called evidence.

However, the truth is not important to Wu Yi. What is important is the impact that this series of events will have on the situation in this world. Humanity and immortality are both becoming stronger. There will be a battle in the future. How should he stand? ? Do we have to take sides with the Immortals?

Even if you have to stand in line for the Immortal Way, when to stand in line is still a craft, and you have to pay attention to it!

Finally, it is worth mentioning that Emperor Daji moved most of the northern tribes southward and scattered their settlements, mainly near the military camps. In this way, even if an accident occurred, they could be suppressed nearby.

But no matter where you place them, there is one thing that cannot be avoided, and that is the issue of land distribution.

The problem of population growth causing massive consumption of resources had already begun to emerge during the period of the last emperor, Emperor Hui.

Now that we have accepted so many "outsiders", we can transport food from various places to ensure that they will not rebel, but what about the future? Is it possible to keep drawing blood to support these people?

After a piece of land is occupied by swords and horses' hooves, it is not foolproof. It is best to be soaked in the fragrance of books and distribute power.

In order to promote the integration between the two ethnic groups, Emperor Daji recruited famous teachers to teach the people of the tribe and advocate the change of customs. On the other hand, he specially carried out many large-scale water conservancy projects nearby and recruited people from the tribe to build them. Work provides relief and does not support lazy people.

Shangyi's original intention is to promote the integration of the two races and eliminate the hatred and hostility between the people for thousands of years. All the measures are well-intentioned and carefully designed.

However, many people really don't have the overall picture, which also shows that it is not an easy thing to eliminate the hatred between thousands of years in a short period of time.

First of all, let’s talk about the recruitment of famous teachers to preach and teach for the people of the tribe. After receiving the recruitment order, some so-called scholars openly refuted it, saying that they were supporting the enemy and could not retreat. Some even openly tore up the edict, which was bad. Extremely.

The emperor was furious when he heard this and killed several people before letting these people go. However, the emperor's reputation was also ruined because of this incident, and these scholars who were forced to go to teach not only failed to bridge the conflict between the two races. , during the lecture, contempt and disdain appeared from time to time, which also increased the hatred between the two parties.

Let's talk about changing customs. The emperor's original intention was to make a free decision, and it didn't matter if he didn't want to change. The purpose was to influence things imperceptibly and moisturize things silently.

However, where the order was issued, there were some people who were selfish and wanted to take revenge on these former enemies. They forced them to change their clothes. If they were unwilling to change, they would start lynchings. This also greatly intensified the conflict. In the end, the emperor came forward and killed a group of people to calm it down. The anger of the tribal people.

Finally, let’s talk about the work-for-relief method. Money does not come from strong winds. The charity is given to you because you are suffering right now. Using work-for-relief can also enhance the self-confidence of the people of the tribe, so as to avoid being nurtured one by one. A lazy man only wants food.

It was running well at first, but then the people who handled it were enriched and the quality of the food became worse and worse. But the quality of the project still needs to be maintained, and the progress of the project needs to be maintained. If you don't have enough food, so what, a group of government officials are waving their whips. , just like driving cattle and sheep, driving the tribal people to build water conservancy projects.

Originally, this season was not suitable for construction projects. Every dam and every canal had countless people from the northern tribes buried under them. Their wounded souls could not be freed, and the yin energy was so thick that they could not be seen until daylight.

In the end, the emperor also used his own prestige to kill a large number of people, skin them and torture them severely. It can be said that he killed heads and blood flowed like rivers to stop the rebellion of the tribesmen.

From these three things, it is not difficult to find that if a policy is originally designed with good intentions, but when implemented without corresponding supervision means, it will deviate from its design direction, or even deviate from it.

We cannot deny that the people on both sides have deep hostility. They have been facing each other for thousands of years. They were rivals on the battlefield just a few days ago, and now they are as close as a family. This is impossible.

The emperor tried his best to maintain peace between the two sides and avoid the outbreak of war, and many methods were favored by the tribesmen in the eyes of the people in the dynasty. As a result, there were more discussions among the people, and the suspicion between the two sides was increasing day by day. , friction is constant every day.

It can only be said that the integration process is not smooth sailing.
