I can be considered a well-informed person who has experienced many storms and waves.
But after hearing what the prophet said to me, I still couldn't help but break out in cold sweat and feel trembling in my heart.
Am I crying next to Zhang Sanfen’s body?
Wei Wuguo was stabbed in the heart by a traitor?
A nuclear explosion occurred in Kyoto?
Are the demon-suppressing soldiers going to die one after another?
All of this happened in the Dharma-ending era?
I swallowed and said in a deep voice: "Isn't what the prophet said just speculation or imagination?"
"Yes, China-Earth has indeed encountered the biggest crisis since the founding of the People's Republic of China. However, the Governor has planned the strategy, the Consulate has prepared for rainy days, and the demon-suppressing soldiers of the Secret Bureau have fought bloody battles for this land."
"Not to mention that our people in Middle-earth are united and dedicated to resisting the devil. So what if the old gods come? If they want to occupy Middle-earth, they must pay the price!"
The prophet lowered his head and went to pour us a glass of black water and nectar. He said slowly: "What I said will definitely happen, but it's just a matter of time. He Yongheng, when disaster strikes, fear will cause all order to collapse.
Let all morality collapse."
"Even if a small number of people can stick to their hearts, more people will only rely on their own instincts to do things!"
I didn't touch the glass of black water and nectar, and let the black air continue to dissipate.
There is some truth to what the prophet said, but it is not entirely correct.
I stared into his eyes and said word for word: "Prophet, my boss once told me that the future is not static, but full of variables."
"Guardians spy on the secrets of heaven in order to seek good luck, avoid bad luck, and change fate. If the future remains unchanged, the world will become a lot more boring."
I stood up slowly, my face became much colder.
It’s not a word of speculation. Zhang Sanfen told me countless times that the Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Evolution is forty-nine, and one of the human escapes is one.
The way of heaven is not yet complete, so everything in the world has a last glimmer of hope, which is the "one" that has escaped.
Ever since China knew that the Age of Ending Law was coming, it has been working hard to fight. Even if the failure rate is high, who dares to say that China will have no future?
This prophet said that China-Earth is doomed, Zhang Sanfen, Wei Wuguo and others will die. Why are you so sure?
When the prophet saw me getting up to leave, he still had that plain smile on his face.
He said: "He Yongheng, the destruction of Middle-earth is a foregone conclusion. Even if you don't believe it, there is nothing you can do."
I said: "Even if Middle-earth is eventually destroyed and all exorcists become history, it will be our own fault and has nothing to do with you!"
"We have worked hard and fought hard. Even if we lose, we will die without regrets!"
"Prophet, I'm really sorry to disturb you here today, but don't worry, I won't come to your place again! Farewell!"
Zhang Baiqiang and I turned around and left without hesitation.
But we had only taken two steps when I heard the prophet say loudly behind me: "He Yongheng, don't you want to know what the future will look like?"
I laughed loudly and said, "Prophet, you must have heard the story of Pandora's Box, right?"
"Do you know what the last monster trapped in Pandora's Box is?"
The prophet was stunned.
But Zhang Baiqiang and I held our heads high and pushed open the door.
The underground black-heart tree at the door was rushed by the Yang Qi from both of us, and began to sway its leaves.
But Zhang Baiqiang and I didn't look back and moved forward.
It wasn't until he walked a few dozen meters that Zhang Baiqiang asked curiously: "Brother He, what exactly is the disaster trapped in Pandora's Box?"
I replied softly: "The name of that disaster is prophecy!"
In Greek mythology, Prometheus stole fire and angered the god-king Zeus.
So Zeus opened the so-called Pandora's Box through Pandora.
After the box is opened, countless disasters fly to the world, such as greed, jealousy, hypocrisy, slander, pain, disease, etc., breaking the peace and tranquility of the world.
When Pandora realized something was wrong, she immediately closed the box, so that the last disaster was not released.
This disaster is called a prophecy.
Without predictions, people's lives are full of unknowns and full of hope.
Once the prophecy is released, people will know everything about their future from birth.
When you find that your life has been arranged long ago and cannot be changed, you will feel how boring life is.
The reason why life is wonderful is that the future is uncertain.
And for a person like the prophet, life must be very boring.
After Zhang Baiqiang listened to my explanation, he was stunned for several seconds.
Then he suddenly realized and said: "If you think about it carefully, prophecies are indeed quite fucked up. Fortunately, the last disaster in Pandora's box has been contained, otherwise what's the point of living?"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Baiqiang sighed again: "Brother He, let's leave like this. What should we do with what the King of Liberty told us?"
I suddenly got a headache when I heard this.
Jigui City is now under the control of the Freedom Alliance, and the Freedom King is the man who sticks to his word here.
They tried their best to send me over to ask a question, but I just focused on being angry with the prophet and walked away without asking anything.
Now that it's fine, how do I explain it to the King of Freedom?
While I was thinking about that, I heard the voice of the prophet coming from behind: "He Yongheng!"
Zhang Baiqiang and I turned around and saw the prophet walking quickly with something in his hand.
He said seriously: "The demon-suppressing soldiers in Middle-earth are indeed worthy of respect, but many things are beyond human control."
"This book was written blindly when I had nothing to do. You can take it and read it. I don't ask you to believe it, but it can also be used as a reference."
I didn't reach out to pick it up, but asked instead: "Ordinary people always say that heaven's secrets should not be leaked. Even a divination master would not dare to say it clearly. Instead, he would use a more obscure way of expression in order to avoid being punished by heaven.
.”
"I have never met the prophet, but the prophet not only told me what might happen to Middle-earth in the future, but he even gave me gifts. Why is this?"
The prophet blinked and said with a smile: "Because you are Pangu."
I still did not accept the gift and continued to ask: "The prophet just said that I am who I am. As long as I am strong-willed and stick to my heart and beliefs, I will not become anyone else!"
"Now that you say I am Pangu, doesn't it conflict with what you said before?"
Zhang Baiqiang looked at me with his mouth wide open, his face full of surprise.
It seems that he doesn't understand that a person who has always been easy-going and careful in dealing with things can be so aggressive in front of the prophet and ask questions again and again.
The prophet was stunned.
He shook his head and said: "Pangu is just a title, a being who has the ability to change the world."
"I saw you in the future..."
I interrupted the prophet: "Prophet, I don't care what you see me doing in the future, but I have something to say to you."
"Everyone's future has infinite possibilities. Except for the initial birth and final death, which cannot be changed, we are free to choose any life we want during the duration of our lives."
"When facing this catastrophe, we can choose to compromise and survive, or we can choose to fight to the death or even die gloriously on the battlefield."
"Even if you can really see the future, this is one of thousands of possibilities!"
"Personally, I don't believe in the existence of prophecies. Even if I do, I think it is a kind of wisdom, a future deduced through various clues, rather than empty talk. Do you understand?"
The prophet was stunned in place. After a while, he said softly: "Some futures are already predestined. You can't change it if you want to!"
I said loudly: "If we can't change it, what if we know it in advance? Can we change it if we know it in advance?"
"If it can be changed, then we don't need to know the future! Because what we want more is to use our own hands to create a future that we really want!"
"Prophet, farewell!"
After saying that, I didn't pick up what he had in his hand. I gave Zhang Baiqiang a look, then turned around and left.
Prophecy? Haha! Nonsense!
Prophet? Haha! Believable?
The future is only in your own hands. If you can't change it, it must be because you are not strong enough!
In this case, then make yourself stronger! The kind that can control your own destiny!
Zhang Baiqiang and I were walking fast, and just as we were about to walk out of the alley, we heard the prophet shouting from behind: "He Yongheng! Whether you believe it or not, just listen to my advice! Don't return to China before the end of the Dharma era!"
I said without looking back: "Thank you prophet for reminding me! But a real man lives in the present. If he can't live according to his own will, what's the difference between him and a walking zombie?"
