Chapter 1243 The Law of the Empire!
Tang Qianhe was immersed in his own world, talking nonstop, and suddenly Li Yao raised such a tricky question. He was stunned for a moment, and Cherry's mouth opened slightly, not knowing how to answer.
"The real human empire is the pinnacle of human civilization, and naturally has a very sophisticated and complete legal system to safeguard the rights and interests of every imperial citizen."
Su Changfa came to the two of them at some point, with his hands behind his back, and said lightly, "According to the Empire's Criminal Law, Civil Law and Maritime Law, invoking the "Emergency Resistance" Regulations, it is estimated that the crime of "excessive self-defense" and "insulting the corpse" will be sentenced!"
Li Yao was stunned: "Excessive defense? Insulting the corpse?"
"That's right!"
Su Changfa said calmly, "The empire controls the vast sea of stars. Tens of thousands of starships shuttle through the nebula storm every day. Naturally, there will be many shipwrecks happening. It is very experienced to deal with such things."
"According to the past experience of the empire, no one will be innocent in this extreme environment. Once you realize that there is insufficient resources, everyone is an attacker and everyone is a victim. You just need to take action first and then suffer! Fellow Daoist Li, what do you think?"
Li Yao widened his eyes, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes, as if he remembered the unbearable days to look back on. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I'm not the first to do it!"
"That's it. Since it's someone who takes action first, you're just trying to protect yourself. That's just self-defense. At most, it's too much defense. Isn't this a very reasonable judgment?"
"As for the corpse, in the eyes of us cultivators, it is just a shell, not a very important thing. It is already very good to convict a 'insulting corpse'!"
"If you leave it to the judge for free judgment, excessive defense and insulting the corpse may be sentenced to several years of hard labor and exile, and order you to join a more dangerous battle group and fight against the enemies of the empire!"
"However, if every imperial citizen wants to get more cultivation resources and climb up step by step, he will have to go to the battlefield to seize military merits. The more dangerous the battlefield, the more abundant the spoils it is, the more popular it is!"
"So, such a judgment is like being bitten by a mosquito, and it is irrelevant at all!"
Li Yao smacked his tongue: "So understatement?"
Su Changfa smiled faintly, patted Li Yao on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Fellow Daoist Li, you are too young and don't understand the starting point of the empire's laws."
"The starting point of imperial law is to maintain the immortality of human civilization, which makes human beings evolve continuously, and the fire of human civilization is getting stronger and stronger!"
"This is the first article of the imperial constitution and the most core clause. All other legal provisions are formulated around this core!"
"So, how can we make humans evolve continuously and the fire of civilization burns more and more vigorously?"
"It's very simple. The strong prey on the weak and the survival of the fittest will allow the best genes to be sufficient resources and passed on from generation to generation, and all inferior genes will be naturally screened, eliminated, and eliminated!"
"You are the only person who survived the Star Sea Storm. Whether you use conspiracy, robbery, or even just have excellent luck, you cannot overturn a 'fact'. You defeated countless enemies in an extremely dangerous environment and survived!"
"This 'fact' proves that you are the smartest, despicable, agile, smartest or strongest person on the entire ship!"
"In other words, you have the best genes among everyone!"
"Then, your survival is the survival of the best genes. It is in the interests of all mankind that you, a carrier of the best gene, continue to survive!"
"So, from the perspective of the imperial constitution and from the height of all mankind, theoretically, of course, you will not be sentenced to a crime that is too serious!"
Li Yao's heart moved and instantly grasped the key: "In theory?"
"Fellow Daoist Li is indeed quick-thinking and grasped the key in an instant. That's right, what I just said was only theoretical!"
Su Changfa said calmly, "In reality, if you really encounter such a thing, it is usually difficult to find conclusive evidence, and you will not cause trouble in court to resolve it. Even if you really go to court, it is difficult to form a complete chain of evidence. The judges do not like to judge such messy cases. In the end, there is often insufficient evidence and acquitted."
"The victim's family is also aware of this kind of thing, so the plaintiff does not like to go to court to resolve it. Instead, he sends a civil complaint to the local 'arbitration tribunal' in the empire. This kind of complaint does not require evidence. As long as it is raised by the victim's immediate relatives or fellow disciples, plus 'reasonable suspicion', it will be accepted."
Li Yao was stunned when he heard this: "What should I do after accepting the case? How should I make a judgment without evidence?"
"There is no evidence, of course there will be no judgment!"
Su Changfa laughed and said, "The so-called arbitration is to ask the arbitrator to preside over it. You and the victim's family will have a fair showdown and have a fight!"
"ah?"
Li Yao was stunned. Is this okay?
"Do you remember what I just said? The starting point of imperial law is to ensure that the best genes can be passed on. Therefore, if the other party wants to sanction you, it must prove that their genes are better than you!"
"Just defeating you in the arena, you can prove this! At that time, you were not committing the crime of cannibalism, but the crime of 'destroying a better gene than you and continuing it'!"
"According to the logic of the imperial law, this is the most core crime that endangers the continuation of human civilization. It is simply a 'heavy crime'. Of course, you must be punished as severe as possible!"
"At that time, you will be guilty of arbitration, and then the victim's family will sue the court again, even if there is no evidence, you will be sentenced to guilt, and the crime will be extra third-class!"
"Of course, most people won't be so troublesome. As early as in the arena, you were directly solved by the victim's family!"
Li Yao said blankly: "What if I win?"
"If you win, it means that your genes are indeed excellent and you are qualified to pass on them! Even if new evidence appears in the future, the victim's family can no longer cause trouble for you in any form!"
Su Changfa said, "This kind of arbitration is a one-time. For a certain accusation, only one arbitration can be filed. The arbitration result will always be valid. If you cannot kill this time, you will never allow the next time!"
"If you win the challenge of the victim family in public and prove your genetic superiority, the victim family will still be entangled, then you don't have to do it yourself. The imperial law will naturally stand on your side, and the other party will be punished the most severely, or even be exterminated or exterminated!"
Li Yao thought for a long time and nodded, "I understand, that is to say, as long as you have strong strength, no matter what you do, you will be innocent!"
"The survival of the fittest is the king, the defeat of the bandit, the stealing of the hook, the thief, the stealing of the country! Isn't this a universal truth?"
Su Changfa said coldly, "But, in the world of cultivators, this truth is packaged as a 'unspoken rule' and expressed in a relatively obscure and tortuous form; but in the world of cultivators, it is a kind of open and obvious rule, clear, clear, and equal, and very fair!"
Li Yao let out a breath of turbid air and murmured: "Then, isn't that society a mess? All the strong can do whatever they want, burn, kill, and loot!"
"How could it be?"
Su Changfa smiled and said, "If your strength is strong enough to reach the level of the 'Local Lord', you can formulate the rules of the game and continuously obtain stable benefits through legal and open channels. Why use such rough and inefficient means of burning, killing, looting?"
"If you insist on burning, killing, looting, it only means that your strength is not strong enough to be the maker of the rules of the game. Then the local 'world masters' and strong men will soon find you, kill you, or suppress you, conquer you, incorporate you into the rules of the game, and become part of the system."
"How can such a society be unstable?"
"I understand completely!"
Li Yao slapped his forehead and bowed deeply to Su Changfa and Tang Qianhe, and said sincerely, "Thank you for your two seniors for solving your doubts. After hearing what you said, I really felt enlightened and found a new world. It was like I have lived in a confused condom for decades. It was not until today that I broke out and discovered the real world!"
"but"
With his eyes rolling, Li Yao looked puzzled, "I seem to have one last question, a question that I can't get around no matter how I can't get around!"
"Fellow Daoist Li, please speak!"
Su Changda smiled and said, "It's not a question of solving the problem. Let's discuss and study together and discuss together!"
"That's right, the two discussions about 'real people' and 'original people' are indeed exquisite, which makes the younger generation suddenly understand. But if you think about it carefully, the so-called real people may not be born by real people, right? And their descendants may not be all real people, right?"
"Anyway, this is true in the Flying Star Realm. Many cultivators' parents are not cultivators. Among their children, although the proportion of cultivators will be a little higher, not everyone can awaken their spiritual roots!"
"If a real person, that is, a cultivator, his parents and children are both original people, in other words, parents and children belong to different races, isn't it a bit...not possible?"
"What's wrong?"
Tang Qianhe sneered, "When horses and donkeys mate, they will give birth to mules. Horses and donkeys are parents and mules are children. Are they of the same race?"
Li Yao suddenly had nothing to say, and his face turned red and his neck was thick! (To be continued.)
