Chapter 671: Life in the Mage Tower (13)

Of course, at that time, Mother Earth and her children already existed, just like humans and elven gods, but they were not yet powerful.

The grasslands of the mixed era were lively and prosperous, but at the same time full of crises. Because of the variety of beliefs, wars often broke out between different villages and towns.

By the way, at that time, there were no villages and market towns, and people gathered tribes that would migrate with the water and grass. The leader of the tribe is called the chief, and many tribes unite to form a city, and the chief who rules the whole city and the surrounding tribes is called the great chief.

Speaking of which, the Minotaur the Great can also be said to be the last great chieftain, because later, steppe grazing can no longer meet the food needs, many places began to adopt the method of cultivation plus animal husbandry and hunting, the tribe was fixed, and slowly evolved into villages, large villages became market towns, and the largest was still cities.

At that time, the Minotaur the Great began to rise from the Great Chief to the Patriarch, and finally conquered other races that also believed in Mother Earth, and finally became the Great Emperor.

It should also be inserted here that before the birth of the Minotaur the Great, the centaurs, including the Aura and the Carthusian, as well as other races that believed in other gods, retired or perished between the long mortal wars and the wars of the gods, so in the time of the Minotaur the Great, these races had become legends even more mysterious than the legendary Behemoth Beamon, and later even disappeared......

At that time, the human beings were still very weak, and the elves were much stronger, but because of their beliefs, they rarely invaded the grassland, but after all, these were beyond the scope of the grassland, and they were not described in detail.

In short, I have more understanding of my race, but I also have more doubts.

Because, the real origin of the race, it is still not clear.

Maybe Leo was right, but I grew up listening to the story of God's creation and didn't think it was a big deal.

What I care about is that God created us, why is he doing this to us?

If it's really just herding like herders, or even indifferent to anthills in the fields, then why do they create?

If it's for more faith, shouldn't they be nicer to us?

Sometimes, knowing more isn't more satisfying, it just leads to more unknowns......

"What do you think?" Leo said, "Do you want to write a review of it?" ”

I asked him: "How much did you summarize the history before the Minotaur the Great?" ”

"That kind of thing, you can sort it out in half an hour," said Leo, "from the age of the pantheon to the age of a few gods, and the same is true on earth, but your world is more intense, because God really exists, and in the future, it is likely to go to the age of only one god, and finally, to the age of godlessness." ”

"I'm not interested in the future, I just want to know the past." I say.

Leo said: "We have a religion that ranks first in the world, and it is often the object of faith of small tribes and small countries, but then it slowly develops into a world-class religion, not because they are strong, but because they provide the faith, and the core behind it, which meets the needs of people's hearts, that is, spiritual needs. ”

I suddenly stopped being disgusted by his tirade and listened to it with interest.

"On Earth, the gods do not exist, or at least they do not exist later, but people still accomplish many miracles that people without faith cannot accomplish by virtue of their interpretation of doctrine and spiritual sustenance, in fact, it can also be seen as a mode of cooperation," Leo continued, "And with you, the gods not only exist, but can even indirectly affect the current situation, which deepens people's dependence and loyalty to the faith. For example, if you send down an oracle or give some people special abilities, these achievements will be magnified countless times, and those small or inconspicuous mistakes will be covered up, after all, what people need most is to live well, so you see that those weak people do not live well, but the spiritual inheritance since ancient times tells them that if there are no gods, there will not even be such a life, so they are more determined in their beliefs, and often those who are in the upper echelons, or those who have spiritual pursuits, It is easy to doubt the faith......"

Choking and Strange Novels|w~w~w.

His words deviated a little from my question, but answered my other questions, so I didn't want to interrupt him at all.

"Therefore, once people's beliefs are formed, it is difficult to change, but you have also seen that some gods have a relatively narrow positioning, that is, the laws in charge, some extreme, such as the true god of Aura and the true god of Carthus, one is easy to rage, the other is like conspiracy and pain, to be honest, few ordinary people can agree, after all, I said that people's hearts are to live well, so, these crooked gods, even if they have more believers or even stronger, It can only form a short-term reign of terror, don't believe it, the original Aura cattle people were completely superior to the minotaurs in terms of strength, whether they were fighting alone or in groups, they won steadily, however, their gods were too irritable and rejected those weak believers, but instead let the earth mother god take advantage of the loophole and develop more believers...... Having said that, it makes sense that two more legs are more powerful in combat, just like the human ancestors on the earth, there is a particularly powerful one, called Neanderthals, but they are too upright, they can't cooperate, and they don't have fiction and beliefs, and they were finally destroyed by the weak and cunning Homo sapiens......"

I finally added, "That's how you earth humans come too, right?" ”

"It's all the same, it's a combination of the inner and outer parts of civilization," Leo said, "what the individual needs is survival and stability, and what the collective needs is to grow stronger on the basis of survival, and maintain good cooperation, while trying to suppress other collectives...... The gods, on the other hand, are not the masters, but to be precise, they are the observers, the promoters, and the catalysts......"

"I can now understand why you read so many books," I said, "and accumulating enough will first make people more confused and feel their ignorance, and then, they will crave more knowledge to make up for this confusion and ignorance......"

"It's like a wolf pollen addiction......," Leo said, "This is just the beginning, and when your knowledge accumulates to a certain extent, this sense of ignorance will indeed become stronger and stronger, but the confusion will no longer exist, because you can combine this knowledge into a complete and huge system, just like a city, and it is an incomparably real and complete city, and this is actually the basis of your three views." At this time, even if there are more doubts, you already have the bottom in your heart, you will not blindly listen to others, nor will you make stupid judgments, but through the processing of this city of knowledge, find the best way to deal with it, at this time, even if there are more ignorance and doubts, it will not make you feel lost and afraid. ”

"When did you get to this point?" I asked, "Is it on Earth?" ”

Leo was a little proud: "It's almost, but I can't say that it has been perfected, because I have only learned the most basic knowledge on the earth, and I barely built a framework, and then I crossed over, and I have to start all over again, fortunately, the previous framework can still be used, but there are some small places that need to be modified...... Well, you're finally in the mood to listen to me slowly? ”

I said, "Now in addition to practicing skills, I can only listen to you, anyway, I haven't listened to you finish the content of the library of the temple of Animo City, plus these now, I can also establish my three views in the next few days." ”

Leo was a little overjoyed: "You're finally enlightened?" Alas, what a comforting thing, you can be considered to have grown up! ”

"Don't take advantage of me," I said, "I'm your companion, not your junior!" ”

"No matter how bad it is, let's forget about the New Year, right?" Leo had a hippie smile.

"It's not more than ten years at any time," I said, "well, and I admit that I'm really old enough to mature, so tell me about the world, the universe, and where I've come from......

"Do you think I'm a philosopher?" Leo shouted.

On this day, I really began to learn the knowledge of the books, massively, systematically, comprehensively, and scientifically, in Leo's words, the knowledge of the wizarding world.

Leo was like a mentor who couldn't stop, even like a farmer who hated to pour all the water on a seedling, hoping that the seedling would grow in an instant......

He showed no signs of stopping until it was dark, and I said, "Won't you take a break?" ”

Leo said: "A mortal monk in the flesh can preach the sutra for three days and three nights, and I am nothing!" ”

I said, "Why don't you let me digest it slowly." ”

Leo hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I forgot that your brain hasn't been fully developed yet, well, try the magician's meditation, combined with the Huaxia cultivation method, it should be able to speed up the cultivation of spiritual power, and then achieve the nourishment and effect of the soul...... Okay, you can rest, I'll continue to sort out our system, and then I'll figure out how to get the printing press up and down......"

He muttered to himself and went about his own business, but I calmed down and sorted out the knowledge that suddenly filled my whole head.

There is nothing more important than rediscovering yourself.

After a long time, I was ready to go to bed and asked Taling, "Does the intelligence network have any information about my hometown?" ”

"The new faction's men have discovered that your sister-in-law has given birth to a son. ”

"Son?" I was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "It's good, it's all good!" ”
