Since coming to this world, Zhao Ji has been considering a question: What is the difference between the so-called Jianghu people and ordinary people?

The world should have come from "Zhuangzi". It is better to forget each other than to support each other. Instead of supporting each other and waiting for death, it is better to wander freely among the rivers, lakes and seas without any connection with each other. It can be seen that the world is initially a state, a pursuit, and a beautiful state of life.

The earliest record of the knights should be the "Biography of Assassin" by Shigong Tai, which talks about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period when the king's laws were declining and the princes split. A group of civilians who were not prominent in the era at that time achieved their life goals at the cost of their lives. They may not necessarily occupy great justice, may not necessarily be in a high position, and may not have the grand wish of serving the country and the people. If you treat me with national talents, I should repay them with national talents and use my own strength to stir up the trend of the nation. When a man is angry, he will bury two people, bleed for five steps, and the world is covered with mourning.

Of course, these concepts and feelings are too far away and are not enough to describe the current world. If the world is a means of everyone having unique skills and using violence to fight violence, this is actually a bit far-fetched. Ordinary people may not have no deeds of avenging revenge, and martial arts masters may not all ignore the laws of the king. For example, Zhou Tong and a group of teachers from the Imperial Boxing Gym were more skilled than most people in the world, but they were still willing to serve the court system.

The name of this sect in the world that Zhao Ji discovered in Yuntai Mountain is the Yuntai Sect. In addition to the elders of the head and several deacons, the sect has about fifty disciples, and the number is not large, but the scale is not small.

Zhao Ji wanted to observe the daily life, communication, and attitude towards people in the world. Therefore, for this period of time, he has been wandering around this sect, and his Lingbo Weishou has now become a small success. If he deliberately avoids these sect disciples in this mountain forest and does not be seen, it would be very simple.

After a period of observation, Zhao Ji also gained some understanding of the origin of this sect.

This sect was established decades ago. The first leader was originally a young man from a gentry family in Zhengzhou. Later, his family declined and his children from wealthy families became poor boys. However, relying on his past life experience, he became a playmate for other rich children, and his livelihood could be maintained. Later, the master who served fought with the restaurant people and accidentally beat someone to death. The master was afraid that he would take responsibility, so he simply gave the poor boy a sum of money, so he asked him to take all the blame, and then let him run away.

The young man in distress then left his hometown and stayed out for many years, and his experience became more and more abundant. In the process, he learned a good martial arts by piece together. After all, he was unable to leave his hometown. After decades, he returned to his hometown and had forgotten the bloody crimes. Therefore, he was relieved to live in his hometown. However, his family's family had been completely destroyed and he had to make some livelihoods. One year, a merchant in the city was robbed by bandits, so he used his connections that he had been together for many years to help get the lost property back. The family was grateful, so he presented a villa near Yuntai Mountain to him.

Later, this person helped deal with several such incidents, and his reputation gradually spread and became a little famous. In the past, those old friends in the world came to join in, and some young children in the local area wanted to learn some self-defense techniques. After two or three, they established a sect in Yuntai Mountain. With this Yuntai Sect, the tepid inheritance has been passed down to this day.

The disciples of the Yuntai Sect are also different in identities. There are dilapidated houses with similar backgrounds to the founder's ancestors, local farmers and hunters who are obedient in their own homes, and some refugees who leave their hometowns. In addition to the martial arts taught in the sect, there are also four or five kinds of moves and routines. Although they are not high-quality, they can also achieve good martial arts when they are old.

Among the many disciples, the most important ones are the children of local gentry families. These disciples have no high talent in martial arts, but during festivals, they always give gifts to the sects. They can also be linked to those gentry whose family has a permanent property. They are the most important investment for maintaining the daily expenses of the sect. Secondly, some truly talented disciples are trained as pillars of the sect and are occasionally sent out to deal with some interpersonal exchanges in the world, which is considered a storefront.

As for more ordinary disciples, they are more like traitors, responsible for the food, clothing and expenses of the sect, and deal with land. They are occasionally sent to nearby villages to teach some idle bullies a lesson.

Zhao Ji observed for a while and found that although this sect is not very famous in the world, it actually has many affairs. Sometimes he has to assist the government in arresting habitual criminals who have crossed the border, sometimes he has to help local gentry and wealthy families transport goods or protect their travels, and sometimes he has to receive friends who have visited the world who have crossed the border. Although there are many things, they are handled in an orderly manner.

In Zhao Ji's view, although this Yuntai Sect is just one of many small sects that are not outstanding in the world, it is precisely because of this that many traits are generally representative. With his observation, he probably has an impression of what kind of existence this Jianghu Sect exists.

First of all, this is an organization with a system that can operate and maintain steadily. The reason why it can exist and be passed on is that martial arts actually account for a small proportion. What is more important is that it can assume the supplementary power of local governments and help local people deal with some things that the government cannot take into account or does not face. The meaning of martial arts inheritance is that the more skilled the martial arts inherited, the greater the effectiveness of this sect in the responsibilities it bears.

The so-called Jianghu is actually people's daily communication. For example, there was a saying that was very popular in later generations. Where there were people, there were Jianghu. This is because there were interactions in places, and when there were interactions, there would be trade-offs and cons, and there would be conflicts of interests. The so-called Jianghu rules are to deal with these unwritten agreements in interpersonal exchanges. Then Jianghu sects are backed by Xinyi and Wugong and exist as an arbitration institution for handling these exchanges.

Therefore, Zhao Ji has a deeper understanding of the so-called martial arts mentioned by Qiao Feng before, which is actually no different from the skills of all craftsmen. Apart from strengthening the body and making a living, it is just a means of making a living.

The world is not a place where people are willing to revenge and ignore the laws of the king. The difference between the world and the mainstream society is that the world has explicit regulations and laws, but the world uses unwritten, but the rules that are conventional and conventional are supplemented with the law of the king. The law of the king is like the magnificent sunlight in the sky shining the whole world, while the world is the world where the sunlight cannot shine on the dark side. Only when one is light and one is combined is a complete world.

Zhao Ji has always been unable to understand why some martial arts people have been eager to dominate the martial arts world. Isn’t it better to have this free time to study hard and become a Jinshi? Now that I have a good understanding of the world, I gradually understand that the struggle for fame and fortune in the world is actually a fight for the right to speak. What a hero of a generation is always much more convincing than what an unknown person said.

The word "The Martial Arts Leader" is really exquisite, which shows that this is a general recognition of the leader of the election, who is willing to give him trust and arbitration power. If it is replaced by "The Martial Arts Overlord", the charm will be completely lost. Because in the final analysis, the constraints on people in the martial arts world are very small, which determines that there is no power. No matter how arrogant or domineering you, everyone stands up and scatters, and it is okay not to play with you, right? Doing martial arts with martial arts will dominate the martial arts world with force, is this dominating the martial arts world? This is planning to rebel! If you don't do things according to the rules of the martial arts world, you will be isolated directly by the martial arts world, and then you will only be sanctioned by the king's law.

In the past, Zhao Ji always felt that his identity was not just a convenience, but a burden. However, when he gradually understood how the world existed, this idea also changed. The world was not incompatible with the mainstream society, but on the contrary, its tolerance was even much greater than that of the mainstream society. Not to mention a prince, even an emperor, as long as he was willing to let go of the privileges given to him by the mainstream society, the world could tolerate it.

In the mainstream society where the scholars and officials share the world with the emperor, it is very difficult to clearly change the atmosphere. For example, today's officials want to send troops to Xixia this time. Not only a group of old party officials opposed it, but even the officials of the new party had differences. Repairing the four sides was a national policy that the Song Dynasty had always pursued, and there were many obstacles to suddenly change the course. Naturally, the civil officials had enough reasons. The bitter and cold land was not enough to support our people, and they were wasting national strength and public funds. It was easy to follow the old stories of Han and Wu and Wu, which was of no use to the country.

But many things cannot be measured clearly by simple pros and cons. From a country to a small one, in addition to a country that is rich, the people are strong and stable, you need to have a kind of confidence and courage, be proud of your heart, and do not insult foreign enemies!

Therefore, even if Zhao Ji takes power in the future and wants to reshape the Golden Booth, difficulties will inevitably exist. If you ignore these difficulties or force yourself to suppress them, you will be rebounded and will be pulled back.

The world is not just a small circle composed of these people in the martial arts world, but also the unwritten agreements and rules in people's hearts. If you master the right to speak in the world, people will recognize it from the heart, rather than just succumbing to power.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ji felt more and more that there would be no substantial loss in being a wise king, and it would be really good to be a hero king.
