I watched Er Chuang’s short video, and everything went numb!

[These three types of Gu are "Natural Gu", "Human Raising Gu", and "Metaphysical Gu". 】

[The last one is my personal name, because it is too metaphysical. 】

[The so-called "natural Gu" is some Gu that naturally exists in nature without being raised artificially, to put it bluntly, some naturally poisonous creatures, and the more typical ones are moths. 】

[I remember when I was a child, adults often said that the powder on the body of a moth like this would cause blindness if it fell into the eyes, and deafness if it fell into the ears, which was actually a kind of witch belief. 】

[In Mr. Deng Qiyao's book, it is called "Strange Butterfly", and the locals believe that this is a kind of Gu that will suck the soul of a doll, so once it is encountered, it must be burned with fire, otherwise the smell of smoke will be used to expel this kind of Gu worm. 】

[In other words, the so-called tricky butterfly is actually a special kind of moth.] 】

[Because the appearance is not very beautiful, there is a straw on the face, and some people with sensitive skin or younger people will be allergic to some hairy things on its body, so there is a saying that "the butterfly sucks people's souls". 】

......

A picture of a moth named "Butterfly" appeared on the giant screen in the sky.

"It's just a poisonous moth??"

"How is that possible?"

Some of the ancients of the past dynasties were taken aback in their hearts, and a look of disbelief appeared on their faces.

These ancients are the people who have heard the legend of "Strange Butterfly" since childhood.

They really believed that the "Tricky Butterfly" was a Gu that could suck people's souls, so after hearing the statement in the giant screen at this time, their cognition was shocked.

Some of them began to waver in their perceptions.

Others, on the other hand, still cling to their old beliefs.

......

[The second "People Raise Gu", there are more records in this regard. 】

[Villagers in some areas believe that the reason why they raise Gu is because they are controlled by black witchcraft, and they must cast Gu on others if they want to live for themselves. 】

[Among them, the method of making Gu is nothing more than a fight between poisonous insects, and then the one that survives is Gu, otherwise it is to smear some toxins on a class of items. 】

[During Professor Deng's inspection, some villagers reminded them not to contact someone's house and not to eat someone's food, this kind of person is a person who is suspected of raising Gu, but the interesting thing is that Professor Deng once went to the house of a person suspected of raising Gu to eat, and in the end he didn't find out that he was tricked. 】

[If someone falls into the Gu, the Gu people will generally find a local skilled wizard to solve the Gu, first 28 ask the hexagram master to calculate what direction and what type of Gu it is, and then sacrifice in the practice. 】

[However, at the end, always eat something that induces vomiting, such as: walnuts, sumac seeds, in order to eliminate Gu poison. 】

......

The plane of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin's brows furrowed.

He is extremely disgusted with the fact that people raise Gu to harm others.

Raising Gu is a felony in Datang.

When he asked people to write the "Tang Law", he asked to add the relevant regulations.

"Tang Law" contains: "Those who create animal poison and fatamas are hanged." Although the Gu maker will forgive, he will also live with his family, and teach people to flow for three thousand miles. That is, those who cohabit with Gu poison, the parents, wives and concubines of the poisoned people, and those who do not know how to create Gu love, do not sit. "

This was the first time that the ancient dynasty included the control of witchcraft in the official law of the country, and the punishment measures for the use of witchcraft such as witchcraft were clearly pointed out in the law.

The reason why he did this was because the people used the witchcraft to harm people, and the witch curse became a common phenomenon, and for the sake of stabilizing the social order, the imperial court had to control it.

On the other hand, it is also to avoid threats from the royal clan with ulterior motives.

In other words, the effect of witchcraft does exist.

Li Shimin's decision to severely crack down on witchcraft in the form of law actually shows that he originally believed in and was afraid of witchcraft.

But seeing this video, Li Shimin vaguely understood that the so-called witchcraft that worked was actually a poisoned poison that took effect, and it shouldn't have much to do with the curse.

If it was just poisoning, rather than something mysterious like a curse, it would be less intimidating.

......

[The third is "Metaphysical Gu", people who have titles such as "Soul Killer", "Medicine Cultivator", or "Pipa Trick" in the village are usually considered to be the ones who master the "Metaphysical Gu". 】

[For example, "Soul Slayer", the local villagers believe that these "Soul Slayers" are also some cursed people, and they also need to transfer their pain, how to transfer it?]

[Take away the soul of another person by touching his body or stepping on his shadow alone, suppress it under the tree by the river, and then the person who loses his soul will begin to fall ill or become delirious. 】

[Is this really that mysterious?]

[Actually, no. 】

[In his investigation, Professor Deng had studied in depth a person who claimed to be "soul imprisoned", and was also cast a "metaphysical Gu" by the "soul killer". 】

[Moreover, Professor Deng also asked a psychiatric doctor who had used psychotherapy to cure many seriously ill patients who claimed to be Zhong Gu to help, so that this doctor could treat this person who was "soul imprisoned". 】

[After some research, it was found that the "metaphysical Gu" in this person was not poisonous, but the "witch Gu" in his heart, and the cause was nothing more than the cultural environment, personal experience, and a collection of social circles. 】

......

The Ming Dynasty became the ancestor plane.

Zhu Zhanji was puzzled and said:

"What does that mean?"

"Did this person get into the Gu or not?"

"Nope. "

"According to the people of later generations, this person's so-called middle Gu is this person's own delusion. "

Zhu Di replied in a deep voice.

Seeing this, he gradually judged the truth of the witch's saying: the curse is useless, and the essence is poisoning.

In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, the control of witchcraft was stricter.

For example, the punishment for witchcraft in the "Da Ming Law" is extremely severe: "Those who create and hide animal Gu poison can be killed and ordered to make animals, beheaded." The cattle makers, regardless of whether they have killed anyone, their property is in the official's possession, and their family members, although they do not know it, they will be resettled for 2,000 miles. "

The harsh punishment also represents the ruler's hidden fear of witchcraft.

Now after seeing the truth of the witch Gu introduced by the high-altitude giant screen, Zhu Di feels that this matter is not so mysterious.

Even.

He thinks that the content of this video can be seen by all the people of the Ming Dynasty, which is not a bad thing.

In this way, in the future, it is possible that the practice of witchcraft among the people will be reduced, so that the people will be more stable.

......

[In addition, unlike what we imagined, these people are not the rumored local saints, but are usually isolated objects, and if anyone is suspected of being a "Gu Keeper" or a "Soul Hunter", they will generally be expelled from the village. 】

[For example, in 1971, Professor Deng met a woman who was suspected of being a "pipa trick", who was obviously beautiful, plump and at the age of marriage, but no one had ever come to the door to propose marriage. 】

[The reason is that the locals suspect that she is a "pipa trick.] 】

[In local legends, Gu keepers like "Pipa Wei" are generally not allowed to walk under the clothesline, because this will make them appear in their original form. 】

[So Professor Deng and a group of friends planned to let this woman walk under the clothesline in front of everyone, so that they could prove that they were not pipa tricks?]

[But to my surprise, this woman disagreed, and under the influence of the surrounding environment, this woman even thought that she was really a "pipa trick". 】

Barrage flying:

"This is the effect of long-term psychological suggestion. "

"Normal, I have been in such a cognitive environment, and I have been brainwashed. "

“......"

See here.

Some ancients in the past dynasties had mixed feelings.

Something like this has happened around them.

They used to be convinced of such a statement.

But at this moment, after listening to these contents of the high-altitude giant screen, some of them began to have doubts,

......

[The reason why the witch Gu is so mysterious and spread so widely is a question that is difficult to summarize. 】

[Originally, witchcraft was because people wanted to explain various supernatural phenomena and find psychological comfort, but as the times changed, it gradually became a social phenomenon. 】

[Because of all kinds of mysterious legends, people began to unconsciously fear witches and hated people who raised Gu. 】

As a result, these people have inexplicably become marginalized people, unable to communicate with others, discriminated against all day long, isolated from the crowd, and even expelled from the village. 】

[No way, after these people are forced to become marginalized people, they must learn to protect themselves, so they begin to exaggerate the mystery, deliberately strengthen the mystery, in order to protect themselves, they can only make people afraid of themselves. 】

[When something unfortunate happens, and the cause cannot be traced, then always find a suitable reason to make up for your worries and anxieties. 】

[The feared Gu girls in the legend of the witch, their abilities do not come from mystery, but from people's hearts. 】

Barrage flying:

"It's not just the issue of marginalization, it's also the situation of violence, and in order to protect themselves, they have to mystify themselves. "

"Is it possible that such a technique really exists? Word of mouth has been passed down to this day, and it can't be completely fabricated out of thin air, right?"

"It's better to be in awe of the unknown. "

"I feel that the witch theory has been passed down to this day because science still has limitations, and it can't explain all the supernatural phenomena, maybe one day science is developed enough, and the witch theory will disappear. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Reply - no, I agree with the UP master, this is a social psychological problem, and the human heart is very complicated. "

"Reply - it's still possible, society has been progressing after all. "

“......"

Look at the video epilogue in the giant screen in the sky.

Many ancients in the past dynasties had their own thoughts.

There are those who continue to believe in the theory of witchcraft, and there are those who doubt the doctrine of witchcraft.

But in any case, this video is enough to make many ancients in all dynasties think more about the theory of witchcraft.

......

High in the sky.

Video refresh.

New videos appear.

[The more money you donate, the more money you donate, how does the charity of the Eagle Sauce Country harvest the poor?Reveal the truth about the fake charity of the Eagle Sauce Country. 】

After this line of headings.

The feature video starts playing.

[With the sound: "It's time to eat again, brothers", "North America's No. 1 Jungler", "Gold Medal Lecturer" began the day's road to asking for food. 】

[From the experience of asking for food told by the "Gold Medal Lecturer", we were able to learn about the life and various benefits of the homeless people in the Eagle Sauce Country. 】

[You may have noticed that most of the food that the "lecturer" gets from the jungle every day actually comes from the food bank. 】

A food bank is a non-profit organization that provides basic food to the poor.

In addition to distributing food to the poor for free, they also work with a variety of other charities, which is why the quality of the food varies depending on where it is refreshed. 】

[Charity of the Eagle Sauce Country, highlight a volume.] 】

[According to statistics, there are more than 200,000 charities in California alone.] 】

[According to the National Taxation Bureau of Eagle Sauce, there will be more than 1.97 million charities in the United States in 2022, infiltrating all aspects of the lives of Eagle Sauce people. 】

......

Accompanied by narration subtitles.

The high-altitude giant screen showed the image of the "gold medal lecturer" receiving various free food in the country of Eagle Sauce every day.

Looking at the scene of these poor people queuing up to receive free food, many ancients in the past dynasties instantly understood.

This is similar to the ancient Chinese dynasty when the imperial court or the great good people went to receive porridge and receive grain.

What puzzled many ancients was that this kind of "grain and porridge" was generally not carried out when there was a famine or some special event?

How can these poor people in the Eagle Sauce Country line up every day to receive free food?

Or, how can anyone give out free food every day?

Come to think of it.

In many dynasties, there were many poor ancients who felt envious in their hearts.

They can eat for free every day, which is naturally a great thing for them.

......

[Some people feel envious of the welfare and charity system of Eagle Sauce Country. 】

[But some people are confused, if the welfare and charity system of the Eagle Sauce Country is effective, there are more and more people who fall into bankruptcy, vagrancy, and hunger, if it is ineffective, the scale of charity accounting for 083 of the GDP of the Eagle Sauce Country is getting bigger and bigger, and the care for the vulnerable groups is becoming more and more detailed. 】

[What's going on here?]

[Today, let's explore how Eagle Sauce Country uses charity to "exploit" the poor. 】

Hear here.

Many ancients in the past dynasties had doubts in their hearts.

Isn't it a good thing to give food to the poor and provide them with food for free?

How can we say that we exploit the poor?

With this feeling of confusion, the ancients continued to look at the giant screen in the sky.

......

[Modern philanthropy in the country of Eagle Sauce originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 】

[This stage is the stage when capitalism enters imperialism, and oligarchs are rampant, such as the Rockefeller family's monopoly on the oil industry in the Eagle Sauce Country, and Carnegie's monopoly on the steel industry in the Eagle Sauce Country, with unprecedented concentration of wealth. 】

[There was a year when the tax revenue of the top 100 richest people in Eagle Sauce Country accounted for 77% of the country's total tax revenue, reaching a historical peak. 】

At the same time, the oppressive methods of the capitalists against the workers under them have also been developed to the extreme, and many low-level workers have always been in a state of poverty because of the exploitation of the capitalists. 】

[The conflict between the capitalists and the workers is growing, and the workers' movement is surging. 】

......

Look at the various conflict images in the giant screen in the sky.

Li Shimin shook his head slightly.

He felt that these capitalists of the Eagle Sauce Country were too greedy and were completely fishing in the dry water.

According to his understanding, if the workers will resist, then life must be untenable.

It is similar to the last years of the Chinese dynasty, when the peasants could not survive and could only rebel.

......

[Faced with this situation, the steel magnate Dale Carnegie published the article "The Gospel of Wealth", which regarded charity as a solution to the social problems that arose rapidly in the process of wealth creation. 】

[He believed that the relationship between the rich and the poor should be like brothers. 】

[Although the widening gap between the rich and the poor is the inevitable price to be paid for the progress of civilization, the rich have an unshirkable responsibility to the society, and the stability of the society is also beneficial to themselves. 】

[He advocated that the rich should use their wealth for the benefit of the public through proper operation during their lifetime, and this article is considered to be the beginning of modern philanthropy in the Eagle Sauce Country.] 】

[Not only that, but Carnegie also united a group of wealthy people to push the Eagle Sauce Congress to pass a bill on charitable relief. 】

[Under the terms of this act, the rich are obliged to help the poor. 】

......

"This man is a smart man. "

On the plane of the Ming Taizu, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke.

Naturally, he would not believe Carnegie's assertion that "there should be a harmonious relationship between the rich and the poor."

Dale Carnegie's actions are clearly aimed at maintaining social stability and preventing greater losses to his own wealth.

Of course.

On the other hand, this is a good thing for the poor, because the poor can really benefit.

But why did later generations consider this to be "false charity"?

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little curious.

He felt that there must be something else in this.

So, he continued to look at the giant screen in the sky.
