Chapter 2011: Antichrist
Subtitle of this chapter: Master Yuan's kind
"The so-called mysterious organizations of the world actually have their historical origins. Freemasonry, for example, stirs up the mystery that the world and themselves have brought with them, and is in fact a secret religion in which heretics in all periods of Christianity gather together for warmth......"
"For example, the 'Bohemian Club,' which has been buzzing in our United States in recent years, was founded to provide a safe haven for writers, artists, and musicians. As the years went on, it became the private refuge of a different kind of Bohemian members, prominent politicians and business executives......"
"FOR EXAMPLE, MR. YUAN YANQI'S FAMILY IS AN OFFSHOOT OF CHINA'S 'HONG MEN', WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY AN UNDERGROUND POLITICAL AND PARAMILITARY ORGANIZATION OF THE HAN CHINESE AGAINST FOREIGN COLONIAL REGIMES......"
"But the SCP Foundation was born, like the famous monkey in Chinese mythology, and it 'jumped out of the cracks in the rocks' very abruptly. Regarding this secret organization, all the information and circumstantial evidence show that the SCP Foundation was created by Mr. Yuan Yanqi. And he's the real head of the organization......"
So the author had to focus on the study of Mr. Yuan Yanqian himself. So aside from his glittering aura of literary giants and liberal masters, what kind of person is he? ”
"First of all, those who came into contact with him, even his polemic enemies or the most radical racists of the time, had to admit that this Chinese had great personal charisma and excellent oratorical talents. In 1921, when he set foot in the British Isles, a group of 'patriots' gathered at the docks to protest his anti-British rhetoric. But after Mr. Yuan gave a short speech to the crowd, all these malicious protesters became his loyal fans......"
"Secondly, he has an extraordinary physique, a physique that surpasses ordinary people. In 1920, whether it was the effect of Chinese medicine or not, Mr. Yuan defeated sepsis with great ease. And his appetite is surprisingly large. Those who have eaten with him know that Mr. Yuan can eat more than a dozen people in one meal. In addition, some of his abilities were the envy of all men who knew him, and Miss Lillian-Gish had told her sister that after sleeping with Neo, ordinary men were simply boring......"
"Finally, Mr. Yuan Yanqian has some very 'special' abilities. He would often perform 'little magic' in public, and one of the most famous 'magic tricks' was to have someone write a few words on a piece of paper and put them in a sealed envelope. Then he only had to touch the envelope with his hand to see what was written on the paper. What's even more amazing is that no matter what the words are on the paper, he knows what it means......"
"Outstanding charisma, strong physique, special abilities...... The addition of these three can't help but remind me of another historical celebrity not far from Mr. Yuan......"
"As the reader thinks, that is Gregory, a favorite of Tsar Nicholas II, known as the 'Demon Monk'? Yefimovich? Rasputin ......"
Of course, Rasputin is nothing more than an Orthodox fanatic from a second-rate village background, and it is not wrong to call him a god. So even if he has some 'special' abilities, it's just to add some peachy anecdotes to history. However, Mr. Yuan Yanqian is a great intellectual who has received higher education from the East and the West. And he is also a nationalist with cynical tendencies, that is, cynicism, so where will he go if he uses his abilities? This is one of the topics that this work will explore......"
—Excerpt from Dan Brown's The Sage and the Devil
"Tuk Tuk ......"
"Lord Fool...... Well, Neo, are you awake? ”
"Your Excellency of Justice...... Oh, Yuri. Didn't you wake me up? ”
Because last night was too deep in the play, on the morning of Saturday, November 4, 1920, these two could not separate themselves from the two roles of "Lord Fool" and "Lord Justice".
In fact, the first members of the SCP Foundation were a little abnormal last night. However, if analyzed from a psychological point of view, their blind and stupid behavior is actually normal.
The Fool is a man with 18 charisma. Even highly intelligent people like Nikola Tesla and John McCall are immune to his "affinity".
And Master Yuan's tarot cards are so amazing, he can "make something out of nothing" to change the cards is just the means of ordinary magicians, but how to explain the portraits on the cards that are very similar to the people present?
Could it be that he prepared it in advance? This explanation seems to be in the past......
Anyway, they persuaded themselves not to delve into this matter with this barely plausible explanation, but deep down in the hearts of the Arcanas, they began to believe that the Fool was really extraordinary.
In 1920, atheists were in the minority, both in the backward East and in the advanced West.
Typical Orientals are actually pantheists. Pantheism refers to the philosophical theory that treats God as one with the entire universe or nature. For pantheists, good and evil are two sides of God's one body, more precisely two sides of the "one body."
The most quoted sentence in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" is that heaven and earth are unkind and use all things as dogs.
Therefore, for the three Chinese who have not entered the foreign religion, Camel Xiangzi, Six-Fingered Qin Demon and Xiao Yang Shengfang, President Yuan Da is nothing more than a master of Taoism, and the impact is not so big as to subvert their entire three views.
And isn't it normal for the game to be dusty? Lu Dongbin also played white peony three times, and Jigong was not also "wine and meat through the intestines, and the Buddha paid attention." ”。
But for those white-skinned Arcana, the magical scene they saw last night was really a big thing for them to reshape their three views!
These intellectuals grew up reading the Bible, and the United States at this time was a quasi-religious country with a strong puritan meaning. So even if they don't believe in God when they grow up, it's hard to get rid of the influence of Abraham's monotheism.
For monotheistic religions, supernatural forces that are not Yahweh and whatever belongs are evil.
Yuan Yanqi doesn't look like a believer in Yahweh and that Chinese, that is, he is a human being with the power of the "Antichrist...... Or some kind of existence.
The Antichrist, what an evil, how cool, what a rebellious name. It also happened to meet the appetite of these very rebellious Caucasians.
Isn't it rebellious enough that "His Majesty the Pope" was born rich and wealthy but became a left-winger?
Isn't it rebellious enough that "His Majesty the Emperor" is a fatalist who believes that God cannot change the fate of mankind either?
Isn't it rebellious enough for the two women, "Her Majesty the Queen" and "Her Excellency the Priestess", to want to have their own business?
Isn't it rebellious enough that the "Righteous Excellency" has lost faith in both the American spirit and the capitalist system?
"Lord Tower" is simply a mad scientist archetype, isn't that rebellious enough?
Not to mention the "Lord Magician", even if there was no appearance of the "Lord Fool", his old man would have created a large group of evil gods by himself.
And our Master Yuan has long known that these white skins have turbulent souls through his usual observations and the information of the master ball, so he unscrupulously showed his "ability" in front of them.
As a result, the SCP Foundation, a secret organization with religious connotations, successfully fell to the ground. (note 1)
"Neo, Daketoven is here."
"Okay, I'll get up right away."
