Chapter 1 Four bitten apples
I don't know when the Garden of Eden became a sad place for God, so he came less and less, and the four rivers in the east that nourished the Garden of Eden slowly dried up in the garden.
Because of the loss of the indispensable water supply, and the flowers, trees, insects, birds, fish, and beasts of the garden became more and more lifeless, the angels who could not bear to see all these things gathered together and took some cordical counsel, then lifted up the great garden and ascended it into the kingdom of heaven.
There are human beings in the kingdom of heaven, but they are all human spirits that have been freed from the world and returned to the purest human spirit—the most precious part of life that God originally bestowed upon man.
But in the Garden of Eden, a corner that has been gradually forgotten by God, no one has ever stepped in.
The animals that live here have been taught enough lessons to live a carefree and happy life away from the most beautiful and holy tree of wisdom in the garden, naked, eating the food that God had given them earlier.
Occasionally, when they felt God drift into the garden again, although they could not see or hear, because they had the whole Spirit that God had given them, they were sensitive to everything, and therefore they did not dodge.
Sometimes they fly over God's head, sometimes they pass through God's body, and sometimes they follow God's footsteps for a long distance and don't lose their way home.
Although they could not understand each other's language, they could sense God's calling.
So occasionally angels who can't find God in heaven come here and ask, "Where is God?"
The garden was always sunny and windy, but on this day for some reason the sky above the Tree of Wisdom was covered with a thick mist, which drew the animals from all directions, and they did not dare to approach it, but could only watch with concern from afar.
This fog was very rare in heaven, so God noticed it, and he once again drifted into the garden and stood in front of the tree that he had not seen for a long time.
He really didn't want to look at the tree, but his eyes were unconsciously drawn away by a bitten fruit—the most bright red and attractive one that had hung on the tree, and now the two bite marks left on it made it look so ugly, and the part around the bite marks that was gradually beginning to decay was dark black, like two evil and hideous eyes, which made people shudder to look at.
It was left behind by Adam and Eve, the human beings created by God.
By seeing that decaying part, God knew that the human race he had created had fallen again on earth—an even more terrible fall.
It is the mundane that makes them sink into the mud again and again, and the mundane is originally wrapped in all the sins, which are the faults of the countless tricks that have been "evolved" from generation to generation after the ancestors of mankind were expelled from the Garden of Eden with original sin.
The fruit of the tree of wisdom is also spiritual, and it perceives these sins, so it can only endure the constant decay of the self until it is hopeless.
God sighed, and then stroked a leaf and blocked the fruit— Let it be, he thought, I have sent my only sons to carry all their sins on the cross, but they have not yet come to their senses, they have not been able to redeem themselves, then I can only let this rot go on for the time being, just like the curse I cast on Sodom and Gomorrah, like the earth that I let the monstrous flood sweep over, I can only make the destruction repeat again, more thrillingly, and perhaps only in this way can the world be more shockingly awakened, and make them realize what they should have realized a long time ago!
The leaf that had been caressed made a "rattle" sound, as if the tree was weeping in grief.
But suddenly, God was stunned, because he was surprised to see three fruits that had been hidden under the leaves, one white, one golden, and one black, and they had also been bitten.
Strangely enough, instead of rotting, the three fruits grew new skins and flesh in the places where they had been bitten.
God certainly won't forget who bit these three forbidden fruits!
In a fit of rage, he transformed all three animals and threw them all into human territory, making them the most obvious and vulnerable targets for all time:
The tiger was turned into a white tiger by him, seemingly toned and full of divinity, but in fact it has become the prey of all human beings who are frantically chasing;
The cat was wrapped in a leopard's skin by him, making him as weak as a pet and as attractive as a beast;
The rat was made as black as coal by him, and it had a bright red tail, so no matter where he walked, he could be spotted at a glance!
Such a punishment is similar to "vicious", but God is not enough, he gave the white tiger arrogant self-esteem, the ocelot cunning flattery, and the black rat's fiery heart!
They will be ashamed of their nakedness all their lives because they have eaten from the tree of wisdom, but they will never have clothes to wear like men, they can understand the language of men, they can distinguish between their beauty and ugliness, good and evil, but they will always regard them as enemies, and will only spare no effort to put them to death!
The world is purgatory for them, but God never thought that they could be reborn in the world that is about to be destroyed?!
What's going on?
At that moment, God felt that he had received the most terrible punishment!
He stood there stunned for a moment, then looked away at the fruit that the humans had bitten into.
After some time, he suddenly turned around and threw a bolt of lightning into the air with a wave of his hand, which passed through the Tree of Wisdom and illuminated its entire body.
The tree that was originally spiritual, the most beautiful and pure tree, with all its branches and fruits, and the countless flowers on it, shone like a fountain into the heavens, and when they fell down like splashing crystals, God was gone.
The earthly world was as small as a fruit on the tree in God's eyes, but at this moment, an astonishing lightning bolt swept through the sky above the earthly world, rushing towards the last days of Western Rome.
