Chapter 550: How to Obtain Materials
The maids of the gods in the kingdom of God still have their consciousness of their past lives. While being loyal to Wu Yi, they can't help but be attached to their families. Even if they don't do it openly, they can send a few gifted people to their families secretly, which can make the family prosperous.
It is doomed to be an impossible thing to do everything well. Perfection is a fantasy. Many times, you can only choose a path with the least loss and choose the lesser of two evils.
Wu Yi understands that if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. If a person has no selfishness, he can't be called a person. A certain amount of selfishness can give play to subjective initiative. If there is too much selfishness, the benefits are theirs. If there is a mistake, Wu Yi will have to bear the final consequences.
The key lies in the system. What should be done and what should not be done needs to be a rule. The expansion of the underworld is too fast, and there are indeed some good and bad people. The ghosts responsible for drawing and pulling are of varying quality, which seriously affects the order of reincarnation.
Wu Yi spent a lot of time thinking about this. Once the vast spiritual consciousness was used, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a huge amount.
After the decree was formulated, the next step was to find someone to implement it. It was impossible for Wu Yi to do everything alone. Wu Yi encountered the second problem, lack of talent, talent to govern the world.
When he made a great vow, Wu Yi said that he was the creator of the underworld, and he controlled the size of the underworld. Most of the original team of the Kingdom of God were under his command and served as messengers in the Yang world to educate believers.
Even if these teams were still there, it would not be enough for the entire underworld. Wu Yi still needed to recruit more men.
Originally, Wu Yi chose those who made mistakes in their previous lives and could not escape from reincarnation for a while, and let them be responsible for outlining life and death and guiding the dead souls, as a warning and punishment.
Most of these people have inferior habits, know their mistakes but do not correct them, and most of them make mistakes.
Therefore, Wu Yi planned to follow the example of the human dynasty, teach laws and regulations, and conduct imperial examinations. Among the dead souls who came to the underworld, he would cultivate a group of subordinates who could be used.
The underworld is really huge. Even if Wu Yi is the creator, he cannot be comprehensive. Many private matters, even if there are seeds of evil thoughts, can only be investigated in the future. It is impossible to prevent them, and they can only be severely punished.
Having a qualified and efficient team can save Wu Yi a lot of effort.
Wu Yi also attached great importance to the first underworld promotion. He personally set questions and supervised the exams. Although he did not participate in the review, he often walked around and observed good seedlings.
The final result of the selection, after letting go (Wu Yi thought), was only a few hundred people. For the tens of millions of dead souls, it was nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
There are many reasons for this result, mainly three points.
First, the consciousness of the dead souls is often lost before they die, and their intelligence is not very high. Even if they are granted laws, they cannot learn them in a short time, which naturally makes Wu Yi difficult to satisfy.
Second, Wu Yi is indeed a little anxious. The underworld is so huge that it takes at least a thousand years to form a complete system. How can it be effective in just a few years?
Even a three-year-old child understands this principle, but every time Wu Yi wants to slow down, he will spontaneously feel a sense of threat in his heart. The danger is inexplicable, and it is the warning of heaven and earth.
As Wu Yi's connection with the Mingyue Realm deepens, this feeling becomes more obvious. What kind of opponent is it that makes the will of the Mingyue Realm so uneasy? Wu Yi is not sure yet, but he knows that he does not have much time and cannot waste it for a moment.
Everything is progressing in a hurry, and all kinds of troubles are inevitably exposed. However, compared with future threats, the problems that arise now can only be ranked second.
This is also a choice question of weighing the two evils and choosing the lesser one.
Third, it is also the most serious problem that Wu Yi thinks.
The result of the promotion was not satisfactory, which had a lot to do with the experience of the dead souls in their lifetime, but it was not their fault. The Mingyue Realm was originally a world where force was respected. Fists were much more useful than laws. No one believed in the law, and the law had no ability to be enforced.
Like the Cangmang Realm, the Taoist sect was respected by the world, but it pursued the rule of inaction and did not participate in the specific rule of the human dynasty. The magical powers were not obvious. Only a few Taoist temples were responsible for recruiting disciples, and there were only a few dozen people in a county, which had little influence at all.
Those who fiddled with magic in the mortal world were all casual cultivators who were not up to the stage. The real great powers were hidden in the caves. They would not handle worldly affairs on weekdays. They would handle them with their split bodies and divine will, and concentrate on seeking the Tao.
If the great powers did not come out, some prime ministers, commanders or great sages who were respected by the people and the people would be willing to roll over with a word, and the evil spirits would hide. Some casual cultivators could not even use magic in front of them, so how could they have prestige, so that there was a struggle between the human emperor and the Taoist sect.
The reason why Wu Yi left home to seek refuge was because his grandfather and father were the first to advocate the expulsion of the evil spirits, which implicated the whole family, so he had to go to a foreign country.
After experiencing more, especially realizing the profound foundation of Taoism, Wu Yi finally understood how his grandfather's actions were like an ant trying to shake a tree, and it was doomed to fail.
But now, the moral principles are not prosperous, and the laws and regulations are not obvious. Could it be that the place of reincarnation still has to be decided by fists? Reincarnation is the foundation of the world. Once reincarnation is in chaos, the world will inevitably be in chaos.
It is simply nonsense to decide everything about reincarnation by force. The emergence of Shinto is a product of heaven and earth to maintain balance. The way of heaven is to reduce the surplus and make up for the deficiency.
Absolute power will only lead to greater imbalance. The world will be seriously polarized, with the upper part light and the lower part heavy, and will fall into stagnation.
In the place of reincarnation, you must use the law, not force. Wu Yi's eyes were like torches. This was a matter of principle and he could not be inferior to human feelings.
Su Zhen saw Wu Yi frowning and saying nothing when he looked at the newly selected talents. As Wu Yi's prime minister, he naturally understood what Wu Yi was worried about and said: "The dead souls are unusable, it is better to take materials from the Yang world."
"The Yang world--" Wu Yi was puzzled at first, but then he suddenly realized it, as if a ray of sunlight shone into the dark room. Wu Yi's brows were relaxed and he praised greatly: "Good plan."
After being beaten by Wu Yi last time, Su Zhen also mustered up the courage to speak this time. Seeing that Wu Yi was not dissatisfied, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "The Lord God has boundless power. Even if others have this intention, they can't do this."
Wu Yi doesn't like others flattering him, but when he heard Su Zhen's words, he didn't feel much disgust in his heart. Flattery also requires skills. Poor flattery will make people stay away, while superb flattery can elevate the relationship between the two parties to a higher level.
Of course, the most important thing is that Su Zhen's method really solved Wu Yi's urgent problem.
