章節 829: Vol V Chapter 189

A Chinese saying states that the core of a country is in its hustle and bustle.

This phrase originated from the ancient Chinese classic "Zuo Zhuan, which discussed the two important pillars of governing a country—sacrifices and war. The extract in which this quote was taken from was in the context of about 572BC, where Lu Chenggong, Liu Kanggong and Cheng Sugong worked together to help Jin Ligong attack Thailand. While presenting offerings, Cheng Sugong was not earnest enough, and Liu Kanggong had admonished him.

In this record, "sacrifice" did not just include religious sacrifice but also that of culture and education. Faith, culture, education, war… In the olden, traditional days, they were indeed the most important things to a country as they are now.

This applied to almost every other world.
