This barrage of rhetoric made people feel deafening.
Indeed.
Why must good people go through trials and tribulations?
And when bad people put down the slaughter blade, they achieve positive results?
Isn't this making it difficult for good people and lenient for bad people?
"For murder, repay with life; for debt, repay with money."
"Good begets good, and evil begets evil."
"This should be a matter of course."
"Putting down the slaughter blade and becoming a Buddha on the spot, seems like compassion and forgiveness, but in truth, it's indulgence..."
"Evil people have the chance to reform, but what about those who were killed by evil people? Who gives them a chance to start over?"
"Maybe my outlook is too limited, but I can't accept putting down the slaughter blade and becoming a Buddha."
"To me, repaying murder with life and debts with money is the real justice."
"In this matter, I have no reason not to support the Daoist!"
