Chapter 194: No Emotion Is Useless

Anger, sadness, fear, these three seemingly negative emotions have an effect on people?

When different people see this question, they may give different, even varied, answers.

For example, a person who is always angry is a reckless man, a person who is always sad is a coward, and a person who is always afraid is a coward.

For example, anger makes people lose their minds, sadness makes people lose their spirits, and fear makes people lose their courage.

For example, anger gives people courage, sadness makes people let go of stress, and fear makes people know how to show weakness.

And Su Yan, of course, he also has his own views on these negative emotions, although these views may have been mentioned countless times by others, he may or may not have heard them, but after all, he still formed a cognition of these three words.

"Bing'er, let me ask you a question first, our human race has been able to survive from the continent full of beasts to the present, and even become the overlord of the continent, what do you think is the reason for this?"

Huang Xiaobing thought for a while and replied: "Because the human race knows how to think better than the beast race, the human race in ancient times knew that they were not the opponent of the beast race for the time being, but they did not surrender to it, but have been trying to save themselves and constantly avoid the invasion of the fierce beast sea beast, and at the same time constantly observe the beast race, imitate their movements to create exercises, and make the human race more powerful."

"It is because of the efforts of the ancient human race that our human race has survived to this day and has become the true ruling race of this continent.

"But Ah Yan, why do you ask this question? Do you think that these behaviors of the human race actually have something to do with those three emotions?"

Su Yan nodded, and did not deny Huang Xiaobing's statement.

"That's exactly what I thought," he said. ”

Huang Xiaobing looked at him and asked, "Then Ah Yan, how did you connect these emotions with the behavior of the ancient human race struggling to survive?"

After Su Yan sorted out his thoughts, he opened his mouth to tell Huang Xiaobing what he thought.

"You see, the ancient human race knew that they were far from being the opponent of the beast clan at that time, but they did not sink and were not willingly eaten by the beast clan, isn't this because they know how to be angry and unwilling, so they want to use various methods to resist oppression?

"And after discovering that he was unwilling, after discovering that he was not the opponent of the beast race, the human race forbeared, looking for a hiding place everywhere, and did not confront the beast race head-on, isn't this fear that makes people understand awe and forbearance?

"Therefore, if the ancient human race does not know anger and fear, the ancient human race will either be willing to be used as food by the beast race until there is no left, or because they are unwilling to occupy reason and become the dominant, so they will touch the stone with the egg, and finally take the initiative to send their own neck to the beast race.

"If it weren't for these two seemingly negative emotions, the human race would have disappeared from antiquity long ago, and naturally it would not have survived to this day or even become the master of the continent. ”

Huang Xiaobing silently chewed Su Yan's words and felt that this analysis was very reasonable.

So, she nodded approvingly.

But what made her feel a little strange was: "Ah Yan, why did you just say anger and fear? Why don't you say the effect of grief at once? Did you actually not think about the effect of grief on the human race?"

Huang Xiaobing asked three questions in a row, but Su Yan didn't answer them one by one.

He said calmly: "The reason why I am not in a hurry to talk about the effect of grief on the human race is because I think that the emotion of grief should be put aside for a separate talk. ”

Huang Xiaobing was puzzled: "Why? ”

After a moment of silence, Su Yan spoke unhurriedly about his thoughts on sadness.

"In my opinion, in ancient times, anger and fear were actually the suppression of the human race, what can be done if they are unwilling? Because the human race at that time was weak, so they could only endure it if they were unwilling, and this anger could not be vented.

"Anger is hidden in the heart and cannot be vented, and this situation will inevitably end up suffocating the human body.

"And the situation of fear is similar to this, the human race has a fear of the beasts, but there is nothing to do about them, they can only keep trying to hide, in the long run, these emotions will definitely crush the spirit of the human race.

"Although they can also vent their anger to weaker relatives and completely vent their negative emotions towards the weaker Terrans, for the entire Terrans, this venting is still an internal vent.

This way of venting is not conducive to the healthy and stable development of the human race. ”

Su Yan stopped when he said this, because he instinctively wanted to leave some time for Huang Xiaobing, who was listening to the lecture, to think.

And Huang Xiaobing did not live up to his expectations, and did not wait for Su Yan to finish all his words.

After thinking for a while, she came up with the final conclusion for Su Yan: "So do you think that the Terrans in ancient times needed a way that was more personal and unrelated to other individuals in the Terran collective, and could allow their Terran individuals to vent their negative emotions to the outside?"

"Yes," Su Yan nodded, "That's what I want to say." ”

After saying this, he added, "So these emotions are useful to the ancient Terrans, and they are of great help to the rise of the Terrans, because they have kept the Terrans planning to preserve the race and prepare for resistance, and at the same time keep people mentally healthy through self-venting.

"Only by having a healthy and complete body and a healthy spirit can the human race continue to urge itself to work hard and be aggressive, and can we develop a variety of exercises with the efforts of generations to create a prosperous world.

And these emotions that can make people understand unwillingness, know how to forbear and plan, as well as the sad emotions that allow people to vent themselves and maintain mental health, they are naturally preserved in our blood as useful emotions for the human race, and have been passed down from generation to generation today.

"These seemingly negative emotions are still at work today, in the past, these emotions let the Terran collective know that we need to reform the continent to make the Terran collective live better, and now these emotions let everyone in the Terran know that what we need to innovate now is a certain part or a certain individual within the Terran so that everyone in the Terran can live a happier life. ”

After saying these words, Su Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, he had never thought that he would be able to say so many great truths one day.

After listening to Su Yan's words, Huang Xiaobing couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

From renovating the continent to renovating the human race, all the actions behind this are actually driven by emotions.

It's amazing that such an elusive virtual thing has such magical powers!

It's no wonder that Ah Yan thought of collecting these exercises that can affect people's emotions and writing a book list, if a person can really control their emotions, then it is indeed easier for them to succeed and achieve the happiness they want. ’

Huang Xiaobing looked up at Su Yan, feeling that his thoughts had been surprising him.

Being a pair with such a person is really the most correct choice I have made in my life.

At the same time, she thought that emotions can push people to renovate the whole and a part of the whole, and finally to the behavior of renovating each individual so that they can finally achieve the kind of happiness they want.

Isn't it very similar to Zhou Xing's behavior of fleeing from Quancheng because he was unwilling to be completely controlled by his parents?

This seems to confirm Su Yan's words once again: no emotion is useless.
