Chapter 251 Heaven is Watching You
The peanuts in their mouths no longer smelled good, and they stared at each other for a moment, saying at the same time, "Let's go and take a look."
There is a mining area on the mountain outside the town. It is not a spiritual stone treasure, but a high-quality refined iron ore, which is generally used to forge standard weapons for disciples of the sect. The forging level of Yunji Sect is well-known in the world. The ordinary standard long sword taken outside is also a top-grade product. Qiu Wuji was quite proud of it.
However, no matter how good the forging technology is, it is based on mineral resources.
Qiu Wuji, who had specially studied Marxism-Leninism in the present world, had the first reaction that it was all over. Was the rise of my sect also stained with dirty blood in every pore, and I was the one who was going to be hanged by the street lamp?
The two flew towards the mining area. Chu Ge turned around and looked at Qiu Wuji's gloomy face, and found it a little funny.
When a female leader of a fairy world reads Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong thought in the real world...the style of chivalry seems to have a special flavor.
This reminds me of the fan fiction I read before about Lin Daiyu making a revolution, and I had so much to complain about.
His sense of chivalry was swept away, and what he thought about most was how to help Qiuqiu deal with the matter.
When we arrived at the mining area, we found that the guards were still very strict. A long and narrow path led to the interior of the mining area. Disciples of the Yunji Sect were stationed on the path, and some were patrolling in the snow. It can be seen that the sect's management is strict and no one is lazy.
Of course, for the master, guards are as good as nothing.
The two men sneaked in quietly and saw a line of miners pushing wheelbarrows to transport ore into the warehouse in the heavy snow, with supervisors watching them closely.
After looking carefully for a while, Qiu Wuji felt slightly relieved.
There was no such behavior of villains ordering people around like in novels and movies, nor was there any tragic scene of people being whipped and crying for their parents. The place was well organized, people came and went, and seemed quite motivated.
The wheelbarrow seemed to have been transformed by magic. It looked light and stable when pushed. Even if heavy snow fell on it, it would be blown away by the breeze and would not harm the miners pushing the wheelbarrow.
The sound of mining could be heard from the mine, and it was in full swing.
Qiu Wuji let out a long sigh: "It's not bad... I thought I would see those scenes in movies and TV shows that would raise people's blood pressure, but if it appeared under my own company, then it would be..."
Chu Ge also smiled: "As for the appearance of a famous and upright sect, it's fine. It's just overthinking. In the 'Heavenly Way Setting', the Yunji Sect is a famous and upright sect, so it absolutely cannot deviate from this standard. It's normal to have some minor flaws. Just correct them when you find them, don't worry too much."
Qiu Wuji hesitated: "I may not be able to tell anything with just a cursory glance. Is there occasional oppression, or is there deductions in food and wages..."
Chu Ge laughed: "We call this spot check and random inspection, which is the most objective. If you think even this is a mistake, then it's even harder to say about daily supervision. The person in charge first notifies us that they will go down to inspect today, and then we organize everything here clearly, welcome the leader to come down for dinner, drink three glasses of wine, and then come back for an excellent evaluation. What else can you do? Keep an eye on it yourself?"
Qiu Wuji asked curiously: "How come you are so skilled?"
Chu Ge said: "It was even more chaotic before, but it's much better now."
Qiu Wuji: “…”
"Even if something is missing, you don't have to worry too much. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. This is a feudal fairy tale background. Is there really a revolution here..." Chu Ge couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, seeing your worried look, you look cute. You overlap with the modern Qiuqiu."
Qiu Wuji argued: "Why can't a feudal fairy-tale background start a revolution?"
Chu Ge was stunned, stroking his chin and thinking for a long time before hesitatingly saying, "Anyway, my plot will definitely not go in this direction. The tone is not right. But when the book is finished, this world will run on its own. If you still want to stay here, you can give it a try... I am also looking forward to what will happen when the Xianxia society reaches that stage. Damn, it makes me want to write about this in my new book..."
Qiu Wuji asked: "If I want to change the feudal background of this world that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, what prerequisites do I need?"
"Industrialization." Chu Ge said, "In the Xianxia world, this may be reflected in the popularization of magic weapons or something like that... If you can't do that, then at least try to develop technology. This can't be explained in a short time, so if you are interested, go back and continue reading the book."
Qiu Wuji nodded: "Got it."
She paused, and suddenly remembered something: "Since you don't plan to write about this later, if I start to gradually promote the progress of industry and commerce, or promote the popularization of magic weapons in the corners of this society, will it affect the plot?"
Chu Ge hesitated for a moment, unable to make a judgment.
Theoretically, the subsequent plot is about the competition above the Nascent Soul stage, which can fly into the sky and escape into the earth, and has nothing to do with the basic society - just pick up a fairy tale novel, and when you reach the Nascent Soul stage or above, there will be no trace of mortals appearing, and everyone is the same.
So whether the mortal society is undergoing changes, in theory, has nothing to do with the plot. Moreover, this kind of change is also a long process. By the time the changes are visible to the naked eye, the book may have been completed.
So it should have no impact, at least not to the extent that it would cause an immediate correction.
Chu Ge also knew why Qiu Wuji wanted to do this. It was not because he really wanted to start a revolution or bring about some social change, but it was still the theme that everyone had discussed before. He wanted to try to do something beyond the settings of the Heavenly Dao and thereby break free from the constraints of the Heavenly Dao.
Now we don’t have to rush to try it ourselves, let’s discuss it together.
"You can give it a try." Chu Ge thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he said, "But don't rush it. If you take too big a step, it will probably trigger a correction."
After getting the permission from the Chou Tian Dao master, Qiu Wuji was in a good mood and said with a smile: "There is no rush. I am still traveling around the world with my disciple."
It is a unique phenomenon in this world that he has reached the point of thinking about social changes while traveling around the world.
However, both of them knew in their hearts that these were the real things. This was even one of the fundamental reasons why Chu Ge wanted to travel the world. He needed to understand every bit of this society, rather than looking down from a high position and gaining too little knowledge.
If he really wants to go out and do good deeds or fight with others in a duel... Chu Tiange can do that...
Just as he was thinking this, Qiu Wuji's expression suddenly changed slightly and he made a gesture to keep quiet.
At the same time, he held Chu Ge's hand and shared his perception with him.
Before Chu Ge could feel how the real body of Sect Master Qiu and his clone were, he heard a distant conversation:
"Young Master, I have followed your instructions and spread the news in the towns surrounding Yunji Sect that they are exploiting the people." It was the voice of the man in the tavern.
A young voice laughed, "Well done."
"But sir, what's the point of doing this? I don't think we can harm the Yunji Sect, and some towns even respect Qiu Wuji like a god. After hearing what I said, someone almost came to chop me with a hoe. I even felt the intention of a flying sword, which almost cost me my life."
"It's right to have a flying sword. There are many hidden talents around Yunji Sect. Many former disciples and even high-ranking officials have secluded themselves in the mountains. They are angry for a while, but they claim to be righteous and will not really do anything to you. But if they hear such rumors, they will definitely report back to the sect." The young man smiled and said, "This is what I want."
The man was puzzled: "What's the point? They didn't really have any bad deeds."
"Who said there isn't? Even the cleanest lakes have mud and sand. I personally saw an outer sect steward robbing villagers of their treasures and forcing women to do it. I have already caught him."
"Well, then?"
"As long as Qiu Wuji has heard the rumors from the outside world, when I bring the outer sect steward to her house, she will not be hostile. On the contrary, she will admire my chivalry. This is the first step to approach Qiu Wuji."
Chu Ge: “?”
Qiu Wuji: “…”
After all this time, is this what you want?
The person who was talking to him was also a little amused: "Young Master, is it that serious? You actually used such a roundabout way to approach Qiu Wuji. I thought you wanted to discredit Yunji Sect."
"It's not that I have to beat around the bush. It's just that Qiu Wuji is too far away. It's difficult for me to even meet her under normal circumstances. Only matters like this that concern the reputation of the sect would allow her to personally ask about it. It's difficult for me too..." The young man sighed in a low voice: "As long as there is a chance to meet and talk, then... I will have my own way..."
The sound could no longer be heard.
Qiu Wuji had a half-smile on his face and withdrew his hand from Chu Ge.
Chu Ge looked at her in amazement: "Hey, how come you can suddenly eavesdrop on a conversation so far away and locate it so accurately?"
Qiu Wuji said calmly: "Ever since I found that this place is not what that person said, my divine sense has been tracking him down. I was originally thinking whether it was some enemy who was maliciously slandering me, but in the end..."
She blushed slightly.
The result is that it attracts many men again... It's so embarrassing, why is it always such crappy things, can't we do something more grand... It's so embarrassing to be watched by Father God and see our world like this.
No, the one who is really embarrassed is Father God himself. It's the world he wrote, and it's his own fault that his mind is filled with all the dirty stuff between men and women!
She looked at Chu Ge, but Chu Ge was frowning and thinking.
"What are you thinking about?" Qiu Wuji asked curiously, "He's just a toad. I just ignore him."
Chu Ge shook his head and whispered to himself: "Is it just a toad? I'm afraid not."
There is no plot in the book where a certain young man deliberately approaches Qiu Wuji... This is a small wave that the character experiences outside the plot, which has no impact on the plot, which means that the young man's actions were unsuccessful. It is even possible that he did not even meet Qiu Wuji, but was only met by the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall and sent away with a few words. This possibility is very high.
But now Qiu Wuji heard it, and this wave came to life and began to bear another kind of fruit - what would happen if they really met?
Is this young man just a toad who wants to eat swan meat, or is there something else going on? Is it a personal ambition, or is there someone behind it?
The heavens are watching you.
