Chapter 36 [Good deeds bring good results, bad deeds bring bad results]
Chapter 36 [Good deeds bring good results, bad deeds bring bad results]
Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. Sages are ruthless and view all living things as grass. In the eyes of heaven and sages, humans are the same as monsters, witches, dragons and other races, and there is no difference.
This is not a bad thing.
Because, the way of heaven is more ruthless than compassionate. Only a ruthless way of heaven can be fair and just, and will not favor any race because of its own likes and dislikes.
But this is definitely not good news for the current human race!
Of course, saints are also human beings, with human joys, anger, sorrows and happiness. They are not truly heartless. They also have things that they care about in their hearts!
Nuwa cares about Fuxi.
The Three Pure Ones care about their own Taoist tradition, their own teachings, and their own disciples.
As for the Two Saints of the West, although Xuanqing had never met them, it was highly likely that they hoped that the West would prosper and repay the merits they had borrowed from the Heavenly Dao when they first became saints.
“The sky covers all without discrimination, and the earth carries all without discrimination!”
Xuan Qing couldn't help but have new doubts in his heart: "Since the way of heaven is fair, why would the human race become the so-called protagonist of heaven and earth in the future?"
"Is it simply because the word 'man' fits the three elements perfectly?"
"But humanity should be the way of all living things, the way of all spirits. It shouldn't be limited to one clan, right?"
"Moreover, this world is extremely strange. Mortals are three-dimensional beings, while saints are at least eight-dimensional, or even nine-dimensional beings. They are not at the same level at all, but they exist in the Hongmeng Realm at the same time!"
"Chaos, Order!"
"The primitive world is like the intersection of multiple dimensions. In the chaos, there is a hint of order, and in the order, there is an imperceptible chaos!"
In fact, the stronger a person's cultivation is, the more awed he is towards this world. Mortals fear the consequences, while immortals fear the causes. The ancient world is a place where countless causes and effects intertwine.
However, with Xuanqing's current cultivation and knowledge, he is still unable to see through the essence of this world.
Some things, in his eyes, are self-contradictory and difficult to explain, such as "the way of heaven is impartial" and "human beings have become the protagonists of heaven and earth"!
Heaven is fair, so all living things should be equal, and there should be no so-called protagonist of heaven and earth!
But if the Way of Heaven is partial, why does it treat the human race in this way, allowing the human race to be slaughtered by the demon race, and at the same time allowing the human race to become the protagonist of heaven and earth?
He doesn't understand!
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and he thought of the Taoist Hongjun, and remembered what the Patriarch Tongtian once said: If there were deficiencies in the Way of Heaven, the Taoist Hongjun would make up for it by merging his body with the Way!
"Could it be that the Heavenly Dao is essentially impartial, but it is not complete, and Dao Ancestor Hongjun tried to correct and fill it, but in the process created new loopholes?"
Otherwise it can't be explained at all!
Of course, this is just a more reasonable explanation that Xuanqing forced himself to give.
He also didn't know what the state of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun was, what the purpose of the Dao was, and whether there were any mistakes in the process of the Dao.
His heart moved, and he looked at Nuwa and said, "May I ask the Holy Mother, after the Taoist master merged with the Dao, have the rules of the Heavenly Dao changed in any way?"
"Did you notice that, too?"
Upon hearing this, Nuwa couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise: "The Way of Heaven is indeed constantly changing! It is evolving in the direction that all living beings expect!"
Evolve in the direction expected by all living beings?
Xuan Qing frowned slightly, and then suddenly realized: "Heaven and man are one, he is absorbing the power of all living beings?"
"That's right!"
Nuwa nodded.
Xuan Qing's expression relaxed a little, but he couldn't help but think of what Lord Zhiming had said.
People’s hearts are the trend!
The direction of the evolution of the Way of Heaven is guided by the thoughts of the majority of sentient beings. The trend of the Way of Heaven conforms to the human heart, and using the human heart to influence the trend of heaven and earth is not just empty talk.
Can……
“Are the thoughts of sentient beings necessarily correct?”
Xuan Qing asked the question in his mind. It was not because he was against the common people, but because, before he traveled through time, he had seen too many cases of people making wrong choices due to momentary blindness.
Having more people doesn’t necessarily mean it’s right!
He once saw that when a place was hit by a flood, an official made up his mind to build a flood-control dam after the flood, but it was considered a waste of money and time, so that the public was outraged for a while.
Although the official finally went against public opinion and spent a lot of resources to build a flood control dam, not many people were grateful to him.
It was not until several years later, when an unprecedented flood broke out, that the people protected by the flood control dams understood the official's good intentions.
There are many more of the same things.
He once heard that a principal in a certain place often conducted earthquake drills, which was considered by many parents as a waste of time. However, when an earthquake struck, they admired the principal's foresight.
Everything has two sides, and the majority opinion is not necessarily correct.
Xuanqing had seen too many things like this before he traveled through time.
Like most people, everyone hopes to buy cheap food, but low grain prices hurt farmers. Once food prices fall, farmers will be forced to find other ways to make a living, thus creating a vicious cycle.
Therefore, having more people is not necessarily right!
Xuan Qing pondered for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and bowed to Nuwa, saying: "My Queen, forgive me for being blunt, but I don't agree that the way of heaven evolves according to the will of the people!"
"It's like a person who made a small mistake that didn't deserve the death penalty, but someone who had a grudge against him bribed the person who was qualified to judge him with benefits. In the end, can the result still be fair?"
"I heard that Emperor Jun refined the demon-summoning banner to control the demons in the world. Life and death all depend on Emperor Jun's thoughts. So, are the thoughts expressed by these demons their own thoughts or the thoughts of the demon emperor Emperor Jun?"
Xuanqing couldn't explain the case before the time travel to Nuwa, but he has always been good at drawing inferences from one example, and Di Jun's refining of the Demon-Summoning Banner is the best argument.
"What you said makes sense!"
Nuwa nodded: "But the Dao Ancestor has already merged with the Dao, and the Heavenly Dao is also evolving in the direction that all living beings expect. This is a fact that cannot be changed!"
At this moment, she also began to doubt her own persistence and the direction of the evolution of the way of heaven.
But, the die is cast!
She has no ability to change!
She said frankly: "Saints also have selfish desires, and I am no exception! But since this is the idea of all living beings, no matter whether the final result is good or bad, no matter where the trend of heaven is heading, it is what they should bear!"
"This……"
Xuanqing was speechless.
Just as Nuwa said, since the way of heaven is in accordance with human nature, then even if one day one gets caught in one's own trap, the creatures in the ancient world will have no reason to blame the way of heaven.
Because the general trend of heaven is guided by the majority of them.
At this moment, Xuan Qing seemed to understand why the future would follow the trajectory of his memory.
The war between wizards and liches resulted in the collapse of the pillars of heaven and the deaths of billions of living beings. The remaining creatures naturally hoped that the future protagonists of heaven and earth would not be as brutal as the wizards and liches.
The human race, which has the endorsement of two saints and appears harmless, naturally accepted the destiny and became the eternal protagonist designated by heaven.
Later, as more and more acquired creatures appeared, they were unable to reach the innate sacred height, so the prehistoric world entered the acquired era to narrow the gap between the two.
There was also Zhuanxu who cut down the Jianmu tree and connected the earth to the sky. There was also Jiang Ziya who enthroned the gods, allowing many acquired creatures to wield power like the innate gods.
Finally, it even brings about the end of the Dharma, completely cutting off the possibility of spiritual practice.
"The human heart!"
Xuanqing couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although all this was just his guess, he seemed to have seen the predetermined future, and all the creatures in the ancient world paid the price for their thoughts.
