Conferred Gods: Reborn Yang Jian, racing all the way

Chapter 53
After Lin Bufan heard the other party's low-level sophistry, he also showed a disdainful sneer.

This level of conversational skills to change the subject is far inferior to him.

Lin Bufan found the loopholes and pain points in the other party's words almost immediately.

However, Lin Bufan did not answer immediately. He wanted to dig a hole for the other party, so he also asked a question.

"What do you mean by this, do you mean that human rights are supreme? That human beings' own right to survival is above all else?"

When he heard the word human rights, the scholar was obviously a little confused.

However, after Lin Bufan added an explanation, the scholar's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded in agreement.

"Yes, as the National Master said, I believe that the survival rights of ordinary people are inviolable as long as there is no crime and except for slaves."

This scholar said something that was in line with his values, because in this slave era, slaves were not regarded as human beings, so they had no human rights.

As for ordinary people, as long as they have not committed any crime, they should not be deprived of their lives for any reason.

Of course, these are just ideas that literati take for granted, but in fact, the current social form is not like this.

And Lin Bufan's next counterattack is to let him see the cruelty of this society!
"Very good, a very strong rebuttal. I also agree with your point of view. Ordinary people's right to survival should not be infringed."

After hearing that the other party accepted this trap, Lin Bufan also clapped his hands in agreement, but the next second, he said with a somewhat sarcastic smile on his face.

"But this is not the case. Let me ask again, how many royal families or nobles of vassal states in this world regard ordinary people as human beings?"

"As far as I know, except for the great merchants and a few limited vassal states, most of the vassal states still maintain the custom of living sacrifices and even burials. Is this considered respecting the right to survive?"

"Ordinary people in this world have never had any rights and dignity. Human beings are born unequal. King Guzhu, I wonder if what I say makes sense?"

After Lin Bufan finished saying this, he pointedly stared at King Guzhu and said with a smile. King Guzhu, who was watching the show, was inexplicably lying on his back.

He hesitated for a while and couldn't even say a single sentence. Because Lin Bufan's question was too difficult and he couldn't answer it quickly, so he just acquiesced.

But Lin Bufan directly caught the flaw of his not answering, and immediately said a last-ditch attack.

"You have also seen that even the majestic King Guzhu cannot answer this question convincingly. What kind of ethics can you expect from other small princely states?"

The scholar was already blushing and didn't know how to answer, but Lin Bufan directly made a conclusion and launched a series of verbal attacks.

"So what you said before that you shouldn't add or subtract lives is pure nonsense!"

"The people who die in the Four Cities and the people who die in the Four Kingdoms, did you choose the wrong division for your country?"

"Sacrifice the people of the four cities in exchange for not having a large-scale civil war within the human race, and thus more people will die. Did our division do something wrong again?"

"You have to think about it, if those four countries really go to war with Dashang, it won't just be a war between the five countries."

"I don't know how many vassal states will be involved, and more than hundreds of millions of people will be killed or injured?"

"If you don't cut the knot quickly, a war you can't even imagine will eventually break out!"

Lin Bufan's series of heart-wrenching questions hit the scholar's heart like a barrage of cannons, and the latter was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.

He couldn't say anything for a moment, because even if he wanted to use the reason why Dashang wanted to launch a war, it didn't make sense.

Because all Lin Bufan's questions were based on the premise that the Great Chamber of Commerce would go to war against the four major vassal states.

This is also the only point he can refute, that is, wouldn't it be better if Dashang didn't start a war?After all, the four major vassal states did not dare to take the initiative to go to war with Great Shang.But he couldn't say these words. If he said it, he would burp on the spot.

Because if he said this, he would be questioning the authority of the Human Emperor. Emperor Xin had a righteous reason for launching the war.

The four countries' contempt for the authority of the Human Emperor is actually no different from betraying the human race, so it is reasonable for Emperor Xin to launch a war.

So this scholar racked his brains and couldn't find any point to refute. He directly asked himself into a logical blind spot.

I don't know if it was because he was overusing his brain or because his CPU was burned out, but his face turned red.

"me……"

After holding it in for a long time, I couldn't hold back a single word. In the end, I fainted directly in the court.

He just stood upright, lying on the table, unconscious.

Coma is a way of the human body to avoid danger, which means that this scholar was already a little anxious just now.

After seeing this scene, other literati who were preparing to attack were also a little frightened.

Even Lone Bamboo King looked at this scene in a daze, because this was the first time he knew about it.

It turns out that just talking without using any curse words can really make people faint. Today, his eyes were opened.

The two generals standing on the left and right of Lin Bufan saw this scene for the first time in their lives.

Immediately everyone was amazed and gave Lin Bufan a thumbs up with great admiration.

"Alas, young people are still too young. Next, I can answer any questions I want from my national teacher."

Lin Bufan sighed with pretense of regret, shook his head, and then waved his hand to let the next question come up.

After hearing his words, the literati in the audience looked at each other in confusion, not knowing who should continue to fight.

And their minds were also spinning rapidly, wondering what topics they should use to continue arguing with Lin Bufan.

However, after thinking for a long time, they did not come up with specific countermeasures, but they all understood a truth.

That means we can't continue to debate with Lin Bufan on the rights and wrongs of war.

Because in this war, Dashang had the right to argue, and no matter how they argued, they could not argue with Lin Bufan.

So now we can only attack from a different angle. There is no way to argue politically, so we can only compete with Lin Bufan on cultural level.

They all know that Lin Bufan has extremely high knowledge in all walks of life, so some knowledge about people's livelihood is not included in the scope of their debate.

Because they are all self-aware, they know that it is impossible for them to compete with Lin Bufan in terms of various basic knowledge.

Therefore, they always thought that Lin Bufan would be relatively weak in terms of philosophy and that he was a practical and intellectual person.

So soon some literati came up with a countermeasure. He wanted to compete with Lin Bufan in philosophy!

They want to say what they are best at, all kinds of false and empty truths, and they want to stand at the top of philosophy and culture and despise Lin Bufan fiercely!
This is the only countermeasure they can think of.
