C312 Don't Tell Me That the Poor Are Not People
Hearing Gu Yunci's words, Gu Ruoxi turned her head and glanced at a young man in a green robe and a small hat standing in the corner.
Seeing this, the young man immediately understood.
"Teacher Gu, Patriarch."
"They are still kneeling outside!"
This young man was a servant of the Gu family.
As members of a large family, they would naturally bring along servants no matter where they went.
After all, how could servants like the servants of the Treasure Moon House be as useful as their own servants?
"Hmph, since you're still kneeling."
"Then kneel for a while longer!"
Gu Yunci snorted when he heard this.
Gu Ruoxi, who was standing at the side, said with a smile.
"It's their good fortune to be reprimanded by you, Teacher Gu!"
"If they dare to stand up on their own accord, wouldn't that mean they don't know what's good for them?"
Gu Ruoxi's words were not entirely flattery.
After all, Gu Yunci was a King Teacher.
Who would dare to disobey the orders of a King Teacher?
Even if Gong Juren and the other master teachers were among the people kneeling in the hall.
"At least they know what's good for them!"
Gu Yunci snorted once more, as though he was a tsundere.
Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi lowered her head and tugged at the corner of her mouth.
He didn't expect that the second young master and uncle of his main branch would still be a tsundere.
He was obviously quite satisfied with Gong Juren and the others, who didn't dare to ignore his orders.
However, it seemed as if they were unwilling to do so. They still knew what was good for them.
Just as he was speaking.
Ye Xun slowly walked in!
"Greetings, Teacher Ye!"
Gu Ruoxi reacted quickly and immediately bowed to Ye Xun, who had just entered the room.
Gu Yunci turned around with a surprised expression on his face.
"Junior brother, you've settled the Office of Rites?"
Gu Yunci was indeed surprised by this.
The fact that Ye Xun was here indicated that he had already settled the Office of Rites.
It was beyond Gu Yunci's expectation that he could take care of a group of nasty people in such a short period of time.
When Ye Xun heard this, he first nodded at Gu Ruoxi, indicating that he didn't need to be overly courteous.
After that, he walked towards Gu Yunci with a serious expression on his face.
"Senior, there's something I need to let you know!"
Gu Yunci was stunned when he heard this.
Then, a serious expression appeared on his face.
Gu Yunci knew his junior quite well.
To be able to make him reveal such a serious expression, it meant that... something big had really happened!
"Junior, tell me!"
Gu Yunci said in a deep voice.
Ye Xun nodded.
"Recently, more than twenty thousand poor people have died at the hands of some great figure in the outskirts of the capital!"
"These poor people have been sucked dry, their deaths extremely tragic!"
Ye Xun had just finished speaking.
Gu Yunci had a shocked look on his face!
"Who did this?!"
His tone was filled with anger!
Although Gu Yunci came from a top family in Southern Border.
However, he was different from the other disciples of other families. He did not have the ignorant knowledge of not eating minced meat!
On the contrary, it was because Gu Yunci liked to travel around the world!
He still attached great importance to the people at the bottom level of Southern Border Continent.
After all, water could carry a boat, and it could also capsize a boat. He was very clear about this.
More than twenty thousand poor people had died in the outskirts of the capital.
However, the entire Chisheng Imperial Court had not noticed it at all.
Or perhaps, the Imperial Court had already known about it, but for some reason, they had intentionally suppressed it?
Regardless of the outcome, it made Gu Yunci extremely furious!
"This was done by Gong Juren!"
Ye Xun said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Gu Yunci slammed the table and shouted!
"How dare you!"
"I never thought that this old brat Gong Juren would be so crazy!"
"Does he really think that no one can punish him?"
Gu Yunci's fury was not an act.
More than twenty thousand poor people died suddenly, and they were all killed.
This was not a small matter!
It was a shocking matter that could cause a huge uproar!
After all, Vault Domain was a world with rules.
It was unlike some novels where cultivators could easily kill hundreds of thousands or millions of mortals.
In a world with rules, who would do such a thing!
What awaited him was only one outcome - there was no place for him in the world!
Now, Gong Juren actually dared to defy the laws of the world and wantonly massacre the people?
This was simply trampling on the rules that Holy Teacher Dongzi had left behind in the past!
"Why is Gong Juren so bold?"
Gu Yunci couldn't understand one thing. How could Gong Juren dare to do such a thing?
One should know that the other party was already a 9-star master teacher, and he was already half a step into the King Teacher.
In other words, his future was limitless!
Could it be that he wasn't aware that the matter of him massacring civilians had been exposed?
Would he lose his reputation and ruin his own future?
"It's because of the Heaven's Mandate Gu!"
"Gong Juren has suffered from the backlash of the Heaven's Mandate Gu, he needs to rely on sacrifices to resolve it!"
Ye Xun seemed to have seen through Gu Yunci's doubt and explained in a low voice.
The Fate Gu was the Awakening Lone Star Poison.
In fact, the Heaven's Will Gu was its real name.
As for the Awakening Lone Star Poison, it was just another name that Ye Xun gave it.
When he heard that it was because of the Heaven's Mandate Gu, Gu Yunci immediately came to a realization.
This fellow was the same as Ye Xun, both of them were knowledgeable people.
Naturally, he had also heard of the Heaven's Mandate Gu.
"So that's how it is!"
"However, even if it's because of the Fate Gu's karma backlash."
"With Gong Juren's status, he still has enough time to prepare sacrifices!"
"Why would he use civilians as sacrifices?"
Gu Yunci said with a gloomy face.
In fact, to resolve the backlash of the Heaven's Mandate Gu, one did not have to rely on piles of human lives.
Animals could also be used as blood sacrifices!
Of course, using animals as sacrifices was naturally much less effective compared to humans.
However, in Gu Yunci's view, using animals as sacrifices, even if the news were to spread, Gong Juren would not take any risks.
On the contrary, using civilians as sacrifices was something that the heavens could not tolerate.
With Gong Juren's character, he should not be so foolish.
Hearing Gu Yunci's words, Ye Xun immediately understood.
Senior must have misunderstood and mistook the poor for commoners!
Just as he was about to explain, Gu Ruoxi, who was standing beside him, spoke weakly.
"Teacher Gu, Teacher Ye should be talking about the poor, the poor."
The poor and the poor were two completely different creatures in Vault Domain.
In the eyes of most people, civilians were people!
The poor were beasts!
Therefore, Gong Juren used the poor as sacrifices and slaughtered more than twenty thousand people.
Although it sounded shocking.
Strictly speaking, it was not a big deal!
At least, even if it was exposed, it wouldn't cause him to lose his reputation!
Of course, such a cruel method, to be condemned by morality was something that should be done!
This was also the reason why Gong Juren clearly knew about Office of Rites and had already investigated the sacrificial offering case.
But he still did not care about the reason!
With his status, even if the matter was exposed, who could do anything to him?
He didn't kill civilians.
"So the poor are not people?"
Gu Yunci couldn't help but glare at Gu Ruoxi.
At this moment, he naturally knew that he had misunderstood!
But so what?
Just as he said, the poor are no longer human?
Different from most people's values!2
Gu Yunci did not treat the poor as animals.
He treated them equally!
However, in fact, this concept was not the mainstream in Vault Domain!
Why was Liberal Faction the Liberal Faction?
It was because some of their ideas were actually incompatible with the mainstream!
In the eyes of most traditional teachers and the Running Dog Faction.
In fact, Liberal Faction was a party of rebels, rebels, and heretics!
