Not everyone is a hero; most are like Tian Boguang or bandits.
Every time I watch TV, I just see those people casually eating two ounces of beef and several bowls of good wine, having a great time.
Now I understand where that money came from.
Evil and unorthodox methods involve directly killing and robbing people; some sects simply collect protection money.
For example, this is my Qingcheng Sect's territory. If you come here to do business, you have to pay a certain amount of money.
Otherwise, how could a sect support so many disciples?
This thing is actually a gang that occupies a piece of land and collects protection money from the people.
They did much the same things as the imperial court.
Some of the better sects know that this money isn't taken for nothing.
For example, the Wudang sect of Taoism often has its disciples go down the mountain to treat people's illnesses and practice medicine. With the help of incense money from pilgrims, they can barely make ends meet.
And so, this group of people lived a meager existence, eating only simple meals every day.
Zhang Zhenren's disciples sometimes had to farm themselves, and in their spare time they would raise chickens and ducks at the Taoist temple to sell for money.
Therefore, the Wudang Sect does not usually participate in major events in the martial arts world, because social interactions also require money to maintain.
It's common knowledge in the martial arts world that the Wudang Sect is poor.
However, not every expert is willing to live this kind of life.
He worked hard to learn martial arts for many years, and then went back to farming.
Wasn't all that martial arts training for nothing?
Therefore, many martial arts practitioners learn martial arts simply to make money.
And the money could only be taken from ordinary people who were powerless to even kill a chicken.
And this is what the Buddhist sect, which is on par with the Wudang sect, looks like.
They annexed land, lent money at exorbitant interest rates, collected protection money—they did everything.
Their most formidable assets were the largest gambling dens and brothels in the Guanzhong region, which all operated under the guise of Buddhist institutions.
Some brothels even offered services like Buddhist bliss.
That's why Li Chang'an wanted to use the four great myths of the martial arts world to find a way to govern the martial arts community with people from all walks of life.
This way, the group of heroes won't be too disgusted.
In time, we will gradually help them adapt to a life of obeying the law.
Of course, this was his imagined plan. If people in the martial arts world were unwilling to listen to his reasoning, then Li Chang'an would have no choice but to resort to physical methods.
A single punch can ward off a hundred more.
Only by defeating them once and for all can we get them to sit down and listen to Li Chang'an's reasoning.
