Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 51: own thoughs

   Xia Fan was startled, what Li Zeng had said suddenly appeared in his mind.

   "You don't think that the Privy Council is specially used to deal with evil, right?"

"Hahahahaha —" Wang Renzhi on the side said, "The surname is Xia, do you know that you are already an eight-rank official? Are there many ordinary people in the world, or many officials? Is ordinary people important, or Officials are important? If anyone is in trouble, we have to save it. Can you get over it!"

   "But I have obviously encountered an alchemist in the Privy Council who took the initiative to destroy evil..."

"Is it possible that you think they are all free to go on horseback?" Wang Renzhi spread his hand, "Think about it, those ordinary people can tell what is evil and what is their own imagination? Not setting a threshold will only let everyone Tired of running for life, in the end they found that the snake lying on the beam or the wild cat hiding at the foot of the bed! What's more, is it expensive for a life of dozens of taels? This can at least make them ask the privy Before the government helps, go through your mind first, instead of treating your imagination as reality!"

   "What if someone can't even draw out these tens of taels of silver?" Xia Fan frowned.

"Then die. There are people dying every day in this world. They die from disease, starvation, exhaustion, hardship, and poverty. It doesn’t make a difference if one more is killed by evil. I say what you are thinking about— Isn't your purpose of joining the Privy Council for the sake of money and to be superior? If you really want to help those people, you can travel around the world and be what people call the "Xia Daochang"!"

"Enough." Master Zhang waved to interrupt Wang Renzhi's sarcasm, turning to Xia Fan and said, "The Privy Council’s responsibility is to guard the world, not to be a tinker. If there are serious evil incidents in the local area, the command will naturally send The alchemist will dispose of it, and the necessary expenses will be collected by the local chief official. This is considered a shelter for the world. But we can’t protect everyone. Although Wang Renzhi’s words are not acceptable, they are facts. The number of alchemists is ultimately the same. Limited, we shouldn’t focus on trivial things.”

   Is it just... trivial matter? Xia Fan subconsciously said, "What is the big event?"

   Such a rhetorical question has the meaning of questioning.

Master Zhang’s tone was obviously unhappy. He stretched out his hand and arched toward the north, “What else can be, of course, the guardian saint, protect me. It is because the world is peaceful, you will be here. If war breaks out, you But they all have to shoulder the mission and work for Daqi."

   "Eh, are we still going to the battlefield?" Wei Wushuang asked in surprise.

"Otherwise? The two won't know it." Wang Renzhi sneered, "Armageddon can destroy evil, and naturally it can also destroy people. If there is an alchemist against one side, and the other side does not, the latter must be defeated. You see, The alchemist is so important that it can even determine the rise and fall of a country. The things you mentioned are naturally trivial things that are not worth mentioning."

Master Zhang continued his words, "When you rise to the top, you will naturally understand that alchemists play an irreplaceable role in intelligence, diplomatic relations, governance, and strategy. This is why this institution is called the Privy Council—— It is the center of the Lord's mastery of the world, and the guardian of the mysteries of the world. It's a pity that with your current thinking, I'm afraid it will be difficult to improve."

   After he finished speaking, he stopped going to see Xia Fan, as if he had lost the value of teaching, "If there are no other questions, I will take you to the recording department."

  ……

   Until about four or five in the afternoon, everyone left the Privy Council.

   Walking on the bustling street, Xia Fan still hasn't recovered from that conversation. After that, Master Zhang did not make any trouble for him, and he was not hindered in entering the recording department. Looking at the book full of books, he still had difficulty concentrating.

   "Brother Xia, are you okay?" Wei Wushuang patted him on the shoulder and asked with concern.

   "It's nothing...I was too rash." Xia Fan exhaled. He found that he had made a basic mistake, which was to put the original concept of the past on the Privy Council.

   Thinking from a rational point of view, Wang Renzhi was right. There were 189 passers in the Qingshan Township Examination. Even if there are five examination rooms in one session, there are only 1,000 people. In Shenzhou alone, there are three cities and sixteen counties with a population of over one million. Such a wide disparity in numbers, coupled with the backward traffic environment, is destined to be impossible for the alchemist to deal with every evil incident.

   The so-called screening line of dozens of taels of silver is actually just a cover-because the Privy Council does not require alchemists to respond to requests. Townships and counties that are closer to the big city may still be cared for. Small villages and towns in remote places can take ten and a half days to pass the news. There are probably only a handful of alchemists who are willing to take a trip.

   This is probably the reason why the Privy Council opened one eye and closed one eye to those who are not in the establishment.

   But from a perceptual point of view, it is difficult for him to accept such a natural attitude of the Privy Council.

   "Hey, you two wait!" Luo Youer's shout suddenly came from behind.

   The two turned their heads, and saw Luo Youer trotting all the way with Shangguan Cai.

   "Miss Luo, Ms Shangguan." Wei Wushuang said with joy, "Do you also live in the eastern courtyard?"

   "Yes, I live next door to her." Luo You'er nodded, "Although the house is a bit broken, the senior sister said it is always right to save money."

   My fellow villager couldn't help but raised his mouth, "Then we can just go home together."

   "I didn't expect you to come here too." Xia Fan cleared up his mood and said to Luo Youer.

"Why can't I come here? Laughing at my ranking is equivalent to laughing at yourself!" Luo Youer made a grimace, "but this exam is really strange, I haven't returned to Youzhou yet~www.mtlnovel. The com~ appointment and dismissal order has already been delivered to the senior brother. To be honest, I was quite uneasy to let me come to Jinxia by myself at first, but I am more relieved to see you here."

   Wei Wushuang's eyes looked at Xia Fan suddenly became weird.

   "But I remember when you met you called him the Caihua Thief." Shangguan Cai glanced suspiciously.

"That's a fact, and it's mainly because my senior sister believes him very much." Luo You'er pouted, "Senior sister's judgment is always right. If she thinks it's okay, then I think...this person should not be bad. Where to go."

   "Your sister is..."

   "The famous Luo Qing from Youzhou."

   Wei Wushuang's expression is indescribably complicated.

   No... Brother Wei, you will listen to my explanation later. Xia Fan felt bitter.

"By the way, why didn't you argue in the end?" Luo Youer changed the topic and asked vigorously. "Senior sister was angry for several days. She felt that if you did not stand up, you were destroying the order of the exam and fostering injustice. The spread! To be smaller is to ruin one's own future, to bigger is to shake Qiguo fundamentals!" She paused briefly, and added, "--this is what she said."

   Your sister is really... the light of the right way. Xia Fan was slightly embarrassed, "I joined the Privy Council just to study alchemy. It doesn't matter whether I go to Gyeonggi or Jinxia, ​​so at that time—"

   "Liar." The little girl interrupted his excuse.

"What?"

"If you were just for this purpose, why did you argue with the Master just now?" Luo Youer said with a straightforward expression, "Does it matter whether other people can be saved? Does it have anything to do with your research on Alchemy? Xia Fan, you really know Your own thoughts?"

   Xia Fan was stunned.

   My heart passed by like thunder.
