Flood refers to the state of chaos and ignorance, especially in ancient times, flood refers to the early state after the formation of the earth, and the word "flood famine" in ancient books is usually borrowed to refer to the primeval era.

And the "flood famine" here is a kind of system in mythology, from the Hongjun preaching, Pangu opening the sky, the Lich War, Nuwa created people, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors and other flood famine wars to the war of the gods, the battle of Buddhism and Taoism and other themes to reflect the battle between the saints with the change of dynasties.

I have to say that this author is really brain-opening and connects the originally chaotic mythological system as much as possible.

However, Chen Kan does not think that the plane he will experience in the future will be carried out according to this system, because this system is full of flaws in both Taoism and Buddhism.

Hongjun first appeared in the Western Han Dynasty Wang Bao's "Four Sons on Morality", and the real fame is after the "Romance of the Gods", the specific origin is unknown, in the middle, he is the master of the six saints, in the flood system he is the avenue entity, but those who know Taoism know that in orthodox Taoism, the avenue manifestation entity is Yuqing Yuan Shi Tianzun, not Hongjun.

Because it is more popular than the immortal biography in the orthodox Taoist books, many people believe it to be true, thinking that there was a Hongjun before the Sanqing, which is completely false, in fact, from ancient times to the present, Hongjun has been refuted by Taoism, called it "heresy", Buddhism does not recognize Hongjun, and has repeatedly refuted rumors.

As for the "Romance of the Gods", Hongjun will be written as the master of the Three Qings, in fact, it is necessary to connect with the specific historical background, which is the author's idea of the unity of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the Ming Dynasty.

Most of the disciples of the sect were on the list of gods, became gods, became a member of the heavenly court, and declared themselves ministers to the Jade Emperor, while the twelve golden immortals who expounded the sect became immortals, and did not claim to the Jade Emperor, which is to separate the immortal power from the divine power.

The divine right represents the imperial power of the real world, which is a metaphor, in the "Fengshen List", Hongjun said when he gave the Fengshen List, the best character is to become an immortal, followed by the Shendao, the Shinto is under the immortal Dao, and the "Fengshen List" worships immortals and suppresses the gods, which is actually a satire on the ruling regime.

Therefore, he helped the people of the Shang Dynasty to become gods, became gods, were restrained by imperial power, and became the existence of the walking dead, and helped the Zhou Dynasty to become immortals and Buddhas, and they will always enjoy themselves.

In fact, not only this "Fengshen List", but also the main idea of another myth "Journey to the West" is almost the same, the time when the two books were written and the author's thoughts are about the same, both of which are satirizing the rule of the imperial court.

When Sun Wukong was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor and the gods behaved so cowardly and incompetently, in fact, it was also a satire on the rule of the imperial court.

Therefore, whether it is "Fengshen Bang" or "Journey to the West", they are all banned books in that era.

The two books "Fengshen Bang" and "Journey to the West" originally existed independently of each other, and "Journey to the West" was written even before "Fengshen Bang", if they were forced to read together, in fact, it was completely their own guilt, and they were not a system in the first place.

This is like some readers watching Mr. Jin's martial arts, although it seems to be in the same vein in the dynasty, but there are many problems in it, many people don't understand, in fact, if you understand the order of Mr. Jin's writing, you will understand.

Among the twelve books, the really coherent stories are "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Sky and the Dragon", because this is collectively called the "Condor Trilogy" is a series, which is deliberately arranged by the old man.

Don't force the rest, this trilogy was written before Tianlong, so don't worry about why Master Yideng didn't learn Dali Duan's "Six Veins Divine Sword", why the Loose School is gone.

This is all nonsense, when the old man Jin wrote the Condor Shooting, he never thought that he would write a martial art called "Six Veins Divine Sword" in the future, although in the dynasty, Tianlong happened before the Condor Shooting, but the order of creation is completely opposite.

In fact, China's mythological system will be messy, similar to that of Mr. Jin, in addition to the big cultural differences caused by China's size, the biggest reason is because of the time of creation.

One of the characteristics of early Chinese history is that the further back you go, the longer the history ahead, which is a very interesting phenomenon in Chinese history.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Confucius sages would only talk about the three generations, that is, the Xia, Shang, and Western three generations, and liked to say how Dayu, Yiyin, Shang Tang, Zhou Gong and others were, and how the sages of these three generations governed the country, to tell the ruler how to treat the people well and govern the country, so the farthest history during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was to the Xia Dynasty to Dayu.

And in the Han Dynasty, the three emperors and five emperors appeared, and when the time came to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was even more amazing, Pangu and other earlier mythological characters appeared, basically the most familiar mythological stories of the Chinese appeared in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties period.

Therefore, the further back China's history goes, the longer the "history" in front of it.

Just like the old man Jin, originally in chronological order, it should be Pangu, the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and then the Xia and Shang dynasties, but the time of creation is just the opposite, there are three generations first, then there are three emperors and five emperors, and finally Pangu opens the world.

It is impossible for the authors who created the immortal characters in front to think about the ideas of their peers behind them, and of course they can't think about them, and this causes great confusion.

In short, a series of reasons eventually caused the incompleteness of the Chinese mythological system, and even some characters were still inconsistent, and their strength was chaotic and abnormal.

After thinking about this, one of the biggest warnings to Chen Kan is that when the time comes to experience a specific plane and face these immortal characters, you must look at it concretely, and you must not be confused by the name of the immortals.

Maybe a character in the previous plane was a soldier under him, and he became his immediate boss in the next plane; It may also be that the villain of the previous plane has become a decent person in the latter plane.

At the same time, Chen Kan also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because if everything was to follow the flood system, then the problem would be a little troublesome.

As I said before, one of the general programs of the flood famine system is that behind all events is the luck of several saints, to put it bluntly, it is a conspiracy theory throughout, if all of them go according to the flood famine system, then Chen Kan will tremble at every step, and he may be killed as a heretic at any time, and no one likes this feeling.
