Chapter 444: The Past Life and the Present Life (Part 2)
Liansheng left the young man and continued to move forward. His previous laughter was, of course, laughing at the young man who was too ignorant and stupid as a stone. At the same time, he was also laughing at the fact that people in the Northwest Territory were so ignorant.
. He couldn't help but start to think, is that young man the epitome of everyone in the entire Northwest Territory? Are all people in the Northwest Territory so ignorant and disrespectful to the gods?
But Liansheng didn't know that the boy was not only a microcosm of the Northwest Territory, but also an extremely special model in the Northwest Territory.
Liansheng laughed at the boy, at Northwest, and at himself. He felt that he was a little too persistent before, and he actually discussed these things with a child who didn't understand anything...
However, even though Liansheng thought this way, for some reason, the boy's last words always lingered in his mind.
"God is not a human being, so why must God love the world?"
This does not seem to be a problem, but it is obviously an obvious and real problem. It is a problem that the saints of Tiandaoyuan never dare to think about.
As the saying goes, "Those who are not of my race must have different minds." For thousands of years, people have followed this principle. Therefore, even if the human race has become the king of the entire continent, they will suppress some alien races intentionally or unintentionally. Because the alien races are not human races,
So the human race is worried that the alien race will bully the human race when it becomes stronger...
Of course, the relationship between humans and gods is obviously not the relationship between humans and aliens, because gods are far more powerful than humans, so it is impossible to worry about what will happen to humans when they become stronger...
So, looking at it from another perspective, how are humans and ants? How do they compare with pigs, dogs and sheep? Do powerful people care about the life and death of ants or the life and death of sheep?
Or from another perspective, how do saints compare with ordinary people? Would a powerful saint with a life span of ten thousand years care about the life and death of ordinary people?
Thinking of these two questions, Liansheng suddenly felt a chill, because the answer is obvious. The powerful human race cannot care about the life and death of ants, and people feed on sheep...
A powerful saint with a lifespan of ten thousand years would not care too much about the struggles, life and death of mortals in the secular world. In the eyes of a saint, even the wars between kingdoms in the secular world are just a group of ants fighting for food, such as in the northwest region.
The kingdoms that only existed for decades or hundreds of years before being destroyed were just child's play, so the saint didn't care about mortals and didn't bother to care!
In the eyes of powerful gods, whether they are saints or ordinary people, they must be just ants, right? So, why do gods care about people in the world?
Saints who have been cultivated by humans will gradually look down on everything after thousands of years of hardships and blood. They will instinctively distinguish themselves from the world, so they don't care about the world... Then, they will have a longer life.
, and gods that have nothing to do with humans, why should they care about humans?
Thinking about this, Liansheng couldn't help but think of that hateful young man. He thought of the young man chewing the fragrant wolf meat excitedly, and then spit out a few inconspicuous bones... He thought of how once upon a time, a saint
After the human body dies and is swallowed up by the light, what is left is a handful of boneless white ash...
"No! This is impossible! Things can't be like this! Heaven and earth can't be like this!" Liansheng yelled like crazy.
"The Book of Heaven! I must get the Book of Heaven. As long as the two volumes of the Book of Heaven are reunited, I can see all the truth!"
Liansheng put aside his distracting thoughts and continued to move forward. Then he came to the Shuiyue Dynasty and lived in seclusion on a hilltop not far from the Guiyuan Sect outside the imperial city... Then he began to wait for a long time.
Waiting for a new saint to be born in the northwest region...
At the same time, Liansheng also noticed that the hateful young man had also entered the imperial dynasty. He watched helplessly as the boy and the girl worked hard in the imperial city. In order to survive, he watched as the boy and the girl were killed in a certain chamber of commerce that took them in.
I was forced to refine elixirs day and night. I saw that young men and girls were oppressed again and again and suffered again and again.
"I have a premonition that one day, I will kill him." The young man said this one day.
"After all, we are refugees. Being able to be taken in and make a living in the city is much better than the days we lived in the mountains. Therefore, the president is kind to us." The girl replied.
The young man didn't speak any more, but there was a hint of coldness and uneasiness in the depths of his smiling eyes.
Finally, one day, the black-hearted president of the Chamber of Commerce looked at the girl who was getting more mature and beautiful day by day, and had some dirty thoughts... However, what he didn't expect was that his dirty thoughts had just arisen.
, he had just sent someone to do some tricks, but the aphrodisiac soup he often drank that night was replaced by poison by a certain boy.
So, the poor president of the Chamber of Commerce died like this, and what was even more pitiable was the confidant of the president of the Chamber of Commerce who had been trusted for many years. Because the medicine the president drank was the prescription he prepared, so the poor
The cronies naturally became the most suspicious suspects...
On the day the president died, the girl lamented very unhappy and said: "Although the president was a little strict, I think he was actually a good person, otherwise he wouldn't have taken us in in the first place."
The young man silently thought about the president's dirty and fat body, and looked at the president's cronies who were being taken to the prison. He gently patted the girl on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Yes, he is a good person."
No one knew about some of the things the president did before his death and some of the dirty thoughts he had towards the girl. No one knew that the medicine that actually killed the president was a poison that the young man had refined himself.
Therefore, the president in the eyes of the kind girl is still a good person. The world in the eyes of the girl is still a beautiful world. And those cruel truths are just hidden by the boy in the dark night...
However, Liansheng saw this clearly. He saw the despicableness of the young man, saw the sinister and vicious nature of the young man, and saw that the young man was like a black loach, moving freely through the world that seemed bright but was actually filled with dark brown silt.
.I also saw that the young man was like a rock, magically protecting the girl very well and blocking all the bad things from him...
The young man was despicable and shameless, doing everything possible, but he also had some persistence of his own. He was ungrateful and personally killed those who were kind to him, but he was also affectionate and righteous, and never left the girl who had been with him. He
He is cold, he is vicious, he kills without blinking an eye, but sometimes he is very enthusiastic. He secretly sent dry food to a lonely old man in Xicheng District, and secretly helped a down-and-out orphan in Dongcheng collect the tuition to enter the college...
Liansheng had been watching quietly, just like an old man beside the stage watching a play obsessively. However, the old man watched the play for less than three hours, but Liansheng watched the young man for thirty years.
.But he felt more and more that he couldn't understand the boy, but for some reason he started to like this hateful boy...
In the past thirty years, the young man who was as cunning as a loach, as stubborn as a stone, and who was not very talented in cultivation, unexpectedly continued to improve at an extremely slow speed. Finally, one day thirty years later.
One day, the young man who was no longer a young man suddenly laughed and said: "Cultivation only lies in the practice itself! Who said that I can't enter Zhenwu in this life? I not only want to enter Zhenwu, but also enter Nirvana and cultivate the holy way!"
Then, even Liansheng once believed that the young man with extremely average cultivation talent and extremely difficult to reach the Yin and Yang realm could transcend Yin and Yang in laughter and reach Zhenwu. Then, he left the imperial city...
However, when the young man left, Liansheng actually felt a little reluctant to leave, but he just shook his head slightly to dispel the feeling of reluctance, and sighed softly: "After watching the theater for a long time, you will more or less not want to leave.
Bar?"
The play has ended, but Liansheng has not left, and cannot leave, because he still has to continue waiting, waiting for a saint to appear in the Shuiyue Dynasty or Guiyuan Sect one day.
But during the long wait, he couldn't help but start to reminisce about this scene he had watched for thirty years, and the last words the young man said before he left.
"Cultivation is only about the practice itself?"
This may be just a very common sentence. It may be nonsense that the young man was inspired to say after reaching Zhenwu and wanted to express that as long as he works hard, everyone can successfully break the mirror.
However, the same words have different meanings to different people... If a friend of the young man who is still in the Yin and Yang realm hears these words, he will definitely feel a little sad in his heart and then shake his head.
He warned the young man with his fists not to act cool and express emotions randomly...
And Master Liansheng, after all, is Master Liansheng. He was once the guardian of the mountain gate of Liao Kong Temple, and now the great priest of Guangming in Tiandao Temple, so he heard some other meanings. "Cultivation itself? So what exactly is cultivation itself?
Why do people want to practice and must practice?"
This seems to be an extremely boring and idiotic question, "Why do people want to practice?" In the eyes of the world, such a question is just like asking why people want to make money? Why do people want to eat? Why do cattle and sheep eat grass?
But the difference between saints is that they never think about problems from the perspective of the world, but from the perspective of heaven, earth, and all things. Therefore, for Liansheng, this problem is not an idiot's problem, but an idiot's problem.
A difficult problem that requires a lot of time and practice to study...
So, he began to study... Liansheng came from the Buddhist sect and was proficient in Buddhist techniques. He once transformed into a demon and practiced the way of killing. He stayed in Tiandaoyuan for more than two thousand years and was a great priest of Guangming.
Dharma, I have practiced the magic of light! I have also traveled around the world, I have seen so many mountains and rivers, and I have seen so many cultivation methods. It is not an exaggeration to say that all methods are accessible.
Therefore, Liansheng could study the problem that originally seemed so complex that it was almost impossible to study. Therefore, he wanted to figure out this problem. To figure out the relationship between man and heaven and earth, the relationship between cultivation itself and heaven and earth...
However, this time it took him another hundred years to gain enlightenment. He almost figured out the problem, but before he could really figure it out, he was extremely lucky to meet the person he was waiting for, a new saint in the Northwest Territory...
