After a few days of rest, the soldiers on the warship gradually recovered their health, their mental outlook was renewed, and their combat effectiveness was guaranteed. After replenishing enough fresh water, Lu Ning and others set sail again and sailed towards the west. In order to shorten the navigation time and the voyage as much as possible, Lu Ning chose a suitable channel, and the fleet still chose to sail away from the coast and directly cross the Indian Ocean.

On the way, Lu Ning continued to learn Roman language from Darwin and Mi Tian, ​​while Guo Jia, Zhou Tai, Dian Wei, Wei Yan and others were not interested in learning foreign language. They were together all day long, and they didn't know what they were saying. Lu Ning was too lazy to care about them. Anyway, they have overcome the problem of seasickness and no longer have to worry about their physical condition.

One day, Lu Ning was resting alone in the cabin. Guo Jia brought Dian Wei, Zhou Tai and Wei Yan to Lu Ning's cabin. Lu Ning glanced at them and knew that something happened to these boys. It must be that Guo Jia couldn't solve it. Otherwise, how could it be like this? After Lu Ning waited for them to sit down, he said slowly: "Do you have any questions to ask me?"

After hearing Lu Ning's words, the three of them looked at each other, and finally Guo Jia said, "Lord, you are right. There is a fact that we can't figure it out. I want to ask the lord for advice."

Can I figure out what Guo Jia can't figure out? If I ask me to teach you, who will teach me? "Tell me, what's the matter? I may not be able to tell you clearly if you don't even understand Fengxiao. Maybe it will disappoint you."

Guo Jia looked up at Lu Ning, and saw Lu Ning carelessly, and said to Lu Ning: "Locke, you said that the bird Locke, who is already Cheng Buguo, is so rich, why don't you equip his soldiers well? He is not afraid that his soldiers will rebel and kill him? In our Han Dynasty, let alone a prince like Locke, who holds real power, or local tyrants and gentry, when arming his servants and troops, he will do his best and try every means to improve his combat effectiveness, for fear that his combat effectiveness will be weak, giving others the opportunity to take advantage of it, endangering his own lives or his own property. Why doesn't this bird Locke care?"

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Ning laughed loudly, took a sip of tea slowly, looked up at them, and said, "The question you are talking about is related to their religious beliefs. You must know that Chengbuguo believes in Buddhism, and the purpose of Buddhism is the theory of the next life. Buddhism believes that any person suffers, suffers, suffers, or suffers in this life, or even becomes a slave or a servant, is the sin committed in his previous life. All kinds of sins committed in his previous life should be atonement in this life; and no matter how much suffering, how much torture and humiliation they suffer in this life, these sufferings will definitely be rewarded in the next life, and will definitely be reborn in a wealthy family and enjoy the wealth of the world. Because everyone here believes in Buddhism, the people here will take reluctance to the oppression, exploitation, and humiliation of the nobles; because they all believe that the suffering they suffer now

Difficulties and humiliation are all destined in the previous life. There is no possibility of any change. Instead of rebelling to change your destiny, it is better to endure it silently and strive to be reborn as a good family in the next life. Another point is that although the climate is hot, the air is humid and the natural conditions are good, which is very suitable for crop growth. In addition, the resources of the Yichengbuguo country are rich, and people will not starve to death under normal circumstances. Of course, no one is willing to rebel. You all know that rebellion has great risks, and it may be a loss of life. Who is willing to rebel with food, clothing, and housing? Since no one will rebel, it will not threaten the lives of Locke and their nobles, why do they still spend a lot of money to form a powerful army? Unless they are flooded with their heads, will they rebel themselves?"

After hearing Lu Ning's words, several people figured out the problems that had bothered them for many days. Guo Jia thought for a moment and said, "Lord, after listening to your explanation, this Buddhism is also beneficial for governing the country, stabilizing the people's hearts, and stabilizing the country."

Guo Jia's words made Lu Ning keep shook his head. What's the bullshit? What's the benefit? Aren't all countries and nations that believe in Buddhism conquered by other countries or nations? India was conquered by Britain and became a colonial country of the British Empire; Southeast Asian countries were also conquered by other countries, and the same is true for our China. It has not been conquered by the Mongols for thousands of years, and the people of the state were conquered by the modern Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Japanese devils all invaded and occupied our country? "You are wrong. The belief and spread of Buddhism are of no benefit to a country or nation, and it is even a religion that harms the country and fools the people. If my Han ethnic group also believes in Buddhism and establishes it as a state religion, it is not far from the destruction of the country."

Lu Ning's words scared Guo Jia. What is this shocking? Buddhism still has the worries of the country's destruction. Guo Jia looked up at Lu Ning and saw that Lu Ning was serious, not a joke. "Lord, I still don't understand. What is the reason?"

Lu Ning, a later generation, knew very well about the disasters that our Han people had experienced over thousands of years. "The purpose of filial piety is the theory of the next life. The most fundamental purpose is to give people an illusory and non-existent spiritual support, thereby diverting people's way of thinking and reducing the pain of torture, humiliation and suffering in real production and life, that is, to find a false reason to deceive themselves for all kinds of sufferings they suffer in real production and life. In this way, no matter what kind of suffering people suffer, they will not resist at all.

The thought of the idea, in the face of any humiliation, will take the method of obedience to accept everything and attribute everything to God's destiny. If this is true, then it will be over for a country or a nation. What's the benefit? If foreign barbarians invade, occupy the territory of our Han Dynasty, burn, kill, plunder and loot in our Han Dynasty, and the Han people are indifferent to this, all of them think that this is destined to suffer this suffering and the people do not rise up to resist, will our Han nation still exist? Will the country still exist? Will the Central Plains still be the territory of our Han nation?"

These words Lu Ning said were all posts of debate on major websites in later generations. How can it be classic? But after hearing this, Guo Jia asked Lu Ning: "I don't agree with the words of the lord. I think the Huns repeatedly invaded the border and even besieged Emperor Gaozu in Baideng. In the end, they were defeated by Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and other generals during the reign of Emperor Wu. Now, aren't we also eliminated the Huns and Xianbei? How could a mere barbarian tribe enter our Central Plains?
