"Tell me about your overall plan." Old Poison seemed to be trying his best to prolong his patience.
"Master, let me ask you a question first. In your opinion, what is the key to the rise and fall of a sect? "
"Nonsense, of course it's the number of top masters. With more masters, the sect will naturally prosper. "Old Poison said.
"No, high-end combat strength can only represent the strength of a sect, but it can't determine the key to its prosperity. The key to the prosperity of a sect lies in the number of believers or disciples at the lowest level. "
"What's the use of having more people! A top master can easily kill thousands of mediocre people. "Old Poison retorted.
"I agree with what you said, but even if it's a top master, can he kill all the believers of Buddhism and Taoism in the world?" Qin Lang asked rhetorically. The answer to this question was obvious, so Old Poison couldn't refute it. So Qin Lang continued, "Because the believers of Buddhism and Taoism can't be killed, the luck of Buddhism and Taoism has always been there, and it has always been strong. The sects in Jianghu are actually structured like a pyramid. The larger the bottom of the pyramid, the higher the top of the pyramid. This is a universal law. Although some sects will occasionally produce some amazing geniuses, these people are still like shooting stars in the long history of Jianghu. Although they are dazzling at the time, they can't last forever. Therefore, if I am able to become a world-shocking genius, I might be able to let the Poison Sect once again display its brilliance. However, if I am unable to resolve the fundamental problem, the Poison Sect will still weaken after being revived. "
"Regarding this point, I agree with Qin Lang's opinion." Fang Baiqiu had been listening to the conversation between the two, but at this time, he occasionally interjected, "There is a saying that the lower structure determines the upper structure. A large number of believers and disciples determines the number of masters produced, and also determines the rise and fall of a sect."
"I understand what this kid said. If you think about it carefully, during the prosperous era of our Poisons, many people had an instinctive fear of poisons and poisonous creatures. Many people even worshiped poisonous insects as gods. At that time, there were many disciples of the Poisons, and there were also many experts. It was the time when the Poisons were at their peak. Later, as these people lost their fear of poisons and poisonous insects, the number of Poisons disciples decreased, and the entire sect weakened. "
"That's right, that's the logic. You also said that when the Devil Sect flourishes, it is often when the world is in chaos and the people have no way of making a living. This is because at that time, many people think that Buddha and Dao Ancestor are unable to protect them. Only by becoming as ruthless as the Devil God can they survive in this chaotic world. Therefore, you can't deny that the more believers and disciples there are, the more prosperous the sect will be. I think this is called inheriting the destiny of heaven and earth — uh, it sounds a bit profound, but I think it should be like this. "Qin Lang frankly said what he thought.
After listening to this, the Old Poison fell into silence. After a long time, he sighed, "I have been in Jianghu for so many years, but I can't believe that I can't see as clearly as you, kid."
"It's only because you are in this mountain. Master, you are trapped in the chess game of revitalizing the Poisons. How can you see clearly what is happening outside the chess game? " Qin Lang said, "In fact, I didn't understand it before, but after listening to some of the things you said about the Devil Sect, I really understood this truth."
"So, you are going to recruit disciples now? However, can these street thugs be regarded as disciples and believers? "The Old Poison still looked down on those street thugs.
"Of course, why can't they be counted?" Qin Lang said with a smile, "For these street thugs, Buddha and Taoist have given up on them, and we, the Poisons, can give them a bite to eat. Of course, they will become believers or disciples of the Poisons, and thus work to rebuild the Poisons. I know that many people in Jianghu look down on these street thugs and don't even see them as people of Jianghu, but this group of people is large in number and has great influence. If we, the Poisons, can control them, they will actually be a considerable force and can do a lot of unexpected things. At least, they can lay a solid foundation for us to rebuild the Poisons. "
"To be honest, I am not as optimistic as you." The Old Poison shook his head, "These people are just a motley crew, and they don't have any faith. How can believers without faith achieve anything?"
"A motley crew can also be trained into excellent teachers. As for faith, these people's faith is actually very simple. It is nothing more than a job to support their families. How many people are really willing to live a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife, especially those who have a wife and children? " After mingling with Han Sanqiang, Man Niu, and the others for a period of time, Qin Lang had more or less figured out the mentality of these people.
"Good. Even if you can gather all the street thugs in Hua Xia, what can you do? "
"There is no need to unite all the street thugs in Hua Xia. I don't have that kind of ability, and that is too risky because Six Doors will never allow anyone to unite all the underworld thugs in Hua Xia. I only need to gather all the underworld forces in Pingchuan Province. At that time, I will naturally have the capital to rebuild the Poisons. "
"Wait — these street thugs, what capital can they give you?" The Old Poison said.
"This is what I learned from the Ye Family. Many people believe that the Ye Family can rise so quickly, and why the Ye Family can control Pingchuan Province for decades, but they do not see the Ye Family's foundation in the underworld. If the Ye Family did not have the dark hand of Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall, they would not have been able to control Pingchuan Province for so many years, nor would they have been able to accumulate so much wealth abroad. Because although many people in the Ye Family hold high positions in the military and political system, there are still many things that need to be done by the street thugs. Therefore, if you control a few street thugs, you will not be able to influence or change anything. But if you control a street thug, you will have the power to change and influence. At that time, whether it is other underworld sects or some important figures in the military or political system, they will all notice your existence. At that time, you will also have the power to influence and change. "
"Good boy! I didn't expect you to understand so many things! " The Old Poison showed some appreciation. "But why didn't you tell me these things before?"
"If I told you before, you might not have listened. Even if you did, you might not have believed me. " Qin Lang said with a smile. "What's more, I didn't see it clearly before, but recently, I don't know why, my mind has become sharper."
"Oh … that's true. Your skills have changed from the outside to the inside. In the future, your mind will become sharper and sharper. Especially after stepping into the Martial Mystic level, your vision and thinking will become clearer. "
