Zhutian: From Douluo, the illusion becomes real

Chapter 619: 618. The Frenzy of All Machines (II)

"Meet Mr. Ye!"

After seeing the person clearly, Ruoshui's face first showed a trace of trance, and then, this trance quickly turned into joy.

She didn't even care about the sudden exposure of the spring light between her chest and abdomen.

Get up quickly.

Jump off the crystal bed.

Then, he bowed to Ye Qingcang, expressing his gratitude clearly and solemnly.

This is also one of the reasons why Ye Qingcang is not interested in beauty.

I have seen scenes of blood and flesh flying everywhere.

You will understand the nature of human beings.

Like most animals.

They are all filled with flesh and blood.

No matter how strong your desires were before you died, when you see a beautiful woman with her chest and abdomen pierced, her internal organs missing, her blood all over the floor, and even her face scratched, all you can feel is fear, or sadness for your own kind being killed. Just like the fox mourns the death of a rabbit, when you see your own kind die with your own eyes, you instinctively think of yourself and then feel compassion for them.

Compared to this.

The so-called viewing white bones as beauties and viewing beauties as white bones is already a small path.

At least bones aren't scary.

This kind of bloody scene is really disgusting.

Or perhaps at this point, someone will express a different opinion: bloody scenes are indeed scary, but how can bones not be scary? Suddenly seeing bones can also scare people to death, right?
This brings us to our daily food.

When you eat ribs.

Would you be scared off from eating ribs because you see the bones in them?
Some people do have this idea.

But the vast majority of people won’t.

So, some things really depend on how you say them.

No matter what kind of meat you eat, it can be regarded as eating the corpse of other creatures, just like those carnivores in the mountains or grasslands. However, you eat it cooked, while they eat it raw.

Don't think that being a vegetarian will be fine.

Plants also need nutrients.

The stronger the plant, the more nutrients it needs.

Among all nutrients, blood and flesh provide the most abundant nutrients.

This is also the origin of the saying that the grass on the grave is three meters high.

So, if we talk about the relationship in the food chain, there are too many plants that absorb nutrients from flesh and blood. We can also say that they ensure their own development and bear fruit by eating the corpses of other animals. Then, they are picked by those who call themselves vegetarians. In essence, they are still eating flesh and blood.

In addition, if we use the classic Taoist thought.

Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies.

Did Zhuang Zhou really dream of a butterfly?

Or did the butterfly dream of Zhuang Zhou?
What if we use a different metaphor to describe this dream?

If I dreamed of wheat, then was it me who dreamed of wheat or was it the wheat that dreamed of me? Why should we assume that wheat has no intelligence? And with what arrogance should humans evaluate other species?

Even more so, how should other species evaluate humans?
In the dog's words, humans have been ordering me around for two or three years, and I can understand their commands, or at least understand the general meaning. Then why can't humans understand me, even though I have barked at them so many times in my life? Who is stupid?

Therefore, viewing beauty as white bones and viewing white bones as beauty is a classic thought, but a higher level of thought is Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly.

And going one level higher is to respect nature.

Going one level higher means watching or loving.

These are two different philosophical approaches.

Being a bystander is the path chosen by those who are somewhat disappointed with the world. They will not actively interfere in anything in the world.

Passion, on the other hand, refers to the choice made by those who have hope for the world. They will take the initiative to devote themselves to the world, fully understand the various aspects of the world and the sufferings of life, and then boast of their gains.

And the last layer.

This is also the level that Ye Qingcang is currently at. That is idealism!

No one can define you. No matter you choose to be a bystander or to love something, you are just yourself. This world is big. Everyone will make his or her own voice and will inevitably receive voices against him or her. Those who choose to be bystanders will be reminded that how can you leave the world without entering it? For those who choose to love something, there will also be people who pour cold water on you and say that you know that entering the world will leave you with scars, but you still work hard for things that you can foresee. This choice is indeed stupid.

But, people don’t live for others!

But live for yourself!

So, here, everything has completed a closed loop.

Just like at the beginning.

Live as you please.

It’s just that, in the beginning, one just follows instinct and does what one wants, but in the end, one uses what one wants to control one’s instinct.

It fits the proverb.

Look at the mountains as mountains, look at the water as water.

Looking at mountains is not mountains, looking at water is not water.

Mountains are still mountains, and water is still water.

Therefore, a little bit of spring scenery is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, taking a step back, there was also a male priest among the priests who just treated Ruoshui. Human life is at stake, so who would care about etiquette?
However, having said that, Ye Qingcang still paid attention, because he was a human being, not an animal, and he still had to be polite.

After being well fed and clothed.

What we are looking for is reproduction.

And only after reproduction is guaranteed can etiquette be practiced.

This is one of the reasons why being polite comes after having enough food and clothing.

Therefore, Ye Qingcang looked away.

I didn’t look at Ruoshui’s white and tender chest and abdomen.

He nodded to himself, and then said, "I arrived just in time. It seems that Zhennan Pass has not been lost. It's just that the battle was intense and the losses were heavy... Do you have more specific data?"

"Have."

"Zhennan Pass from top to bottom."

"There were a total of 123,753 professionals before the war."

"In the first hour of the battle, 7,111 people were killed."

"In the second hour of the battle, another 5,330 men were killed."

"In the third hour of the battle, the enemy adopted the tactic of breaking through the center. The city was breached and our army lost more than 13,400 men."

"It's the fifth hour now."

"On the brink of the sixth hour."

"Because of my injuries, the battle was forced into a street fight. In addition, the fall of the city is also my unshirkable responsibility."

"In short, the current number of professionals in the city will definitely not exceed 100,000."

"Given the brutality and duration of street fighting."

"Close to two hours."

"The remaining number of our troops is estimated to be around 80,000."

Having said that, Ruoshui's face turned three points uglier.

The soldiers' performance was impeccable to have achieved this point.

The main problem was that she couldn't resist it.

From 120,000 to 80,000, the casualty rate is close to one-third. Moreover, it should be noted that this casualty rate refers to the specific number of deaths. There are quite a few people like her who were seriously injured and lost their combat ability. Perhaps the casualty rate will decrease further.

In other words, although there are more than 80,000 combatants in the Exorcist Pass today, there are probably only 50,000 to 60,000 who can actually participate in the battle. The Priest Temple can be said to have been completely crippled after this battle, so much so that the entire Zhennan Pass is considered scrapped.
