Chapter 151: Checks and Balances
For the gaze that shot from behind, I can't wait to poke myself through, Lei Dong didn't realize it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info His gaze became indescribable sigh, and he said slowly: "People have desires from time to time, I think everyone knows that the long and billion-year history of the fairy world has told us again and again that driven by all kinds of desires, people sometimes have to be crazy. The competition for cultivation resources, the competition for the blessed land of the Cave, the competition for the secret books of the exercises, and even just the battle of the wills that disagree with each other have caused so many tragedies in the past hundreds of millions of years, how many people have been wronged, how many wives have been separated, how many people have been displaced, and even innocently died......
The land of the fairy world became quieter and quieter, and only the voice of thunder with infinite compassion echoed in a low voice.
"I'm not against the individual having his desires, but the question is what happens when great power is in the hands of a small group of lust-filled people. In other words, when some people who are full of abnormal desires have great power, what kind of damage will this person cause to the fairy world! ”
Lei Dong's words are extremely simple and easy to understand, and in the mortal world, in the eyes of the citizens of most normal countries, these are the truths that children understand. But in the fairy world, no one has thought about these questions, and no one has said such deafening words. Countless people were silent, falling into deep thought.
It is precisely this effect that Lei Dong wants.
The chaos and strife in the fairy world have been raging for a long time, the super sects dominate the large sects, the big sex sects bully the small and medium sects, and the small and medium-sized sects bully the scattered cultivators and the aborigines, all of which have been taken for granted. And if this does not change, the transformation of the fairy world, complete equality and freedom, will not come.
Maybe the traditional thinking formed in the fairy world for hundreds of millions of years cannot be changed overnight, let alone completely reversed by thunderous words, but some things need someone to stand up and say and do after all. Lei Dong believes that as long as the seed is sown, one day, it will take root and sprout in people's hearts, and one day it will become flourishing.
What's more, the thirty years of war have loosened the tradition of hundreds of millions of years, and the signs of peaceful coexistence and equal treatment of various races have appeared.
"What's more, the desires of an organization are more powerful, more difficult to detect, and more inhibited than the desires of a single individual." Lei Dong looked up at the sky with deep eyes, showing a look of nostalgia, "Many people know that I have experienced twenty-five years in the mortal world. And in these twenty-five years, I have heard a sentence that makes perfect sense - total power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely! ”
The old man's body shook obviously, and he suddenly looked at Lei Dong's back, his eyes showed a thoughtful look, and You Lianhua seemed to be thoughtful, his sharp gaze eased a little, but he seemed to be disdainful and indignant, which was quite complicated. And the other bigwigs, either thoughtful or with flashing eyes, no one knows what they are thinking.
Lei Dong, with a serious expression, looked around at the dense crowd below: "When an organization, or a regime, has almost unlimited power, it will instinctively accelerate the expansion of its power, and enjoy the convenience and pleasure brought by power. Perhaps they are not motivated by malice, or even by goodwill for the good of all, but the consequences of the unlimited expansion of power are undoubtedly serious -- perhaps for the sake of developing the public interest, the continuous erosion of individual power, or the continuous increase of the burden on the people by simply maintaining huge expenditures, and even the public welfare of the vast majority of the people for the sake of the selfish interests of some people! At that time, the regime that we once fully supported will become a tool for oppressing the people, intentionally or unintentionally, and will become a huge cancer in the immortal body......"
"However, the establishment of a strong unified regime is necessary for us, and then a great contradiction arises in the middle. How should this contradiction be resolved? How can we avoid phenomena that we don't want to see? In the thoughtful gaze of countless people, Lei Dong took a deep breath and said firmly, "In the mortal world, people have found such a method, that is, checks and balances, checks and balances of power!" ”
"We need to elect a deliberative body that represents the will of the greatest number of people, and which will make all the rules, make the regime run according to them, and supervise all the actions of the regime. If an institution, or some individual, oversteps these rules and infringes on the public interest in the exercise of public power, then this popular deliberative body has the right to remove that person, whether he is the lowest official or the supreme head of the immortal power! ”
Everyone was listening quietly, and Lei Dong's words were getting closer and closer to shocking the world: "And all the people of the fairy world will also shoulder the mission of supervising the government and the deliberative bodies at the same time - when there is an invasion of foreign enemies, you must take up the guns in your hands and bravely destroy them, and when our regime and deliberative institutions have become tools to oppress you and become evil forces that destroy you, you should also be the guns in your hands to overthrow this regime!" There is only one reason for this, and that is that we must defend our homeland from infringement, our loved ones from being bullied, and our peaceful, equal and free life! ”
"It will be a long process to establish a regime that can truly protect our homeland and protect the happy life of each and every one of us, so that every race and every monk can happily share the warmth of the new regime, but it should become our common goal, and it will become the ideal for which we continue to fight and fight for it!"
"I believe that one day, our vision will finally become a reality, because we already have a good foundation and a good start. Now, we are going to attack the Holy Emperor's lair, to pick the fruit of the first victory on our ideal path, and to clear the biggest obstacle in our path! Lei Dong raised his head, looked deeply at the solemn crowd under the stage, sensed the hundreds of millions of pounding hearts in the vast immortal realm, and shouted word by word: "Immortal Realm Volunteer Space Force, attack!" ”
The shouts of the mountains and tsunamis sounded, and the huge space battleships emitted dazzling light, reflecting the fairy land.
"Kill—"
