Listen to the question that the grave keeper suddenly asked. We were all stunned.

In such a situation. He even asks us about the good and evil of human nature. What exactly is the purpose.

Shen Dali said angrily: "Do whatever you want, be happy." Don't babble. ”

I waved my hand and motioned for Shen Dali not to speak yet. But he did not immediately answer the question of the grave keeper. Instead, he fell into deep thought.

In the Goguryeo tomb at the foot of Yongshou Mountain. The back of the small zongzi is engraved with "Killing without teaching"; In the mirage mansion of Baoying. The mirage incarnates Wang Jintang. It presents us with a "big drama" that exposes evil human nature.

And here it is. The grave keeper suddenly asked such a question. It seems to correspond to those two things.

But. What exactly is the connection between them. Could it be related to the embossed balls?

The grave keeper saw that we did not answer his question. And again, "Give your answer." If correct. I'll let you go. Of course. If wrong. You will only live until the moment the answer is spoken. ”

I was amazed. More and more confused. I can't guess what the purpose of the grave keeper is.

Leng Yue also seemed to be angry. Throw up the iron chopsticks and attack the grave keeper.

Although our feet are fixed to the ground. But with the length of the cold moon iron chopsticks. It should be possible to attack the grave keeper.

The grave keeper cocks up his index finger. Chong Leng Yue swayed. Said lightly: "You don't have to do it in a hurry. Let's be honest. I can't beat you. But I can kill you. If you don't believe it. Don't give up the opportunity to answer this question. Then dedicate your souls here to the great Immortal Heavens. ”

After speaking. He looked at me again. He said, "He who can fall from the altar and not die." You're still the first one. So I'm giving you that chance. Don't fail to cherish. ”

Leng Yue turned her head to look at me. See me after nodding. Put away the iron chopsticks again. Hugging shoulders and silent.

I waved my hand. Signal the grave keeper to stop talking nonsense. Whisper, "Give me five minutes." ”

The grave keeper said hello. Take a few steps to the side. He looked at us with a smile on his face. Waiting for my answer.

Is human nature good or evil. This is a question that has arisen since the dawn of human civilization. Countless generations have argued about it. Until today. There is still no definite conclusion.

Confucian culture has a long history. The impact is still to this day.

Confucius once mentioned that "sex" is similar. But it does not determine whether human nature is good or evil. I don't think he had an answer in his own heart.

Mencius, on the other hand, gave the final conclusion. The doctrine of "inherent goodness" was proposed.

"The beginning of man" in the Three Character Classic. "Sex is good" is something that three-year-old children can blurt out now.

But. Is human nature really "inherently good"?

Xunzi raised his doubts. He also cited a number of arguments to disprove it. In the end, the theory of "sex is inherently evil" was proposed.

I'm not a saint. I'm just a petty grave robber who can't get on the table. These are the questions that plague the saints. How could I possibly come up with the answer. The more I thought about it, the more headaches I felt. One head and two big. The mood became more and more irritable.

Isn't it just a matter of choice? Dead or alive. Each has a 50% probability. It's a big deal.

I thought so. Raise your head and say the answer. I saw that Leng Yue was staring at me with his green eyes.

Looking into Leng Yue's eyes. The irritability in my heart has lessened a lot. Immediately calmed down again. Fall back into contemplation.

After a while. The grave keeper suddenly said, "The time has come." Can you tell me your answer? ”

I slowly looked up. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath. Let your complicated and conflicting feelings calm down. Then slowly open your eyes. Look at the grave keeper. He shook his head with a wry smile.

The grave keeper sneered, "I can't give an answer. ”

I said lightly: "My answer is not a word. It's a lot of words. Do you want to hear about it? ”

The grave keeper raised his hand and made a "please" gesture. Then he stopped talking.

Human nature may be inherently good. Because man has a mind. There are feelings.

When what we hold dear is threatened. Most people will come forward; And when people who don't know each other are in trouble. Most people are also willing to lend a hand. Charcoal in the snow.

In the history of mankind. How many singing and crying stories have been widely disseminated. And it has been passed down from generation to generation.

Humans are different from other animals. The main reason is not just walking upright and using tools. The biggest reason is. Humans have strong emotions. Thoughtful. Humans create civilization. Establish a sense of morality. And in this way, self-discipline and discipline others.

Maybe. That's goodness. The goodness of human nature.

But. Human nature is more than that. There is no denying that there is an evil side to it.

When a child is ignorant. You have to keep the things you love. It's selfishness by nature; When a person is afraid of unknown creatures. First thoughts and actions will always be to do whatever it takes to destroy that creature. It's a natural fear.

This includes, but is not limited to, when these two situations arise. Human instinct is to destroy.

This is the evil of human nature. There is no denying the evil that has to be faced.

Judging by our current morality. Man is born with more evil than good. But the day after tomorrow is bound to be better than evil.

But. Are these morals really correct?

It is the law of nature. Survival of the fittest is the law of evolution.

Whether it is impossible to tell whether it is clear or not. How to define good and evil?

As described in the I Ching. The clear and turbid rise to the sky. And the turbidity zone is cleared to the ground. Since the turbidity is inseparable. So what is the talk of distinguishing between good and evil?

I took a deep breath. gave my final answer: "Both good and evil." It's all relative. There is never a definite conclusion. So. Human nature is just human nature. There is no distinction between good and evil. ”

The grave keeper listened to my answer. Slightly stunned.

It's not just him. Even the old fox spirit in his arms raised his head violently. He looked at me with his mouth wide open. As if stunned.

In fact. I was also stunned by my answer. I'm a grave robber. How do you suddenly talk about these things and become a set? Sounds like that.

The grave keeper was stunned for a moment. fell silent. Then he slowly raised his head. He looked at me with a serious expression. Asked: "Are you really just a grave robber?" ”

I pretended to smile and replied, "It's a fake." ”

The grave keeper frowned. Then he asked, "You don't even want your life." ran again and again to disturb the stability of the queen. What is it for? It's wealth. It's status. It's still okay to look for death. ”

He said this very politely. It reflects his anger at this time.

I looked at Leng Yue. He looked at Shen Dali again. The mood is extremely complicated.

"That's not what you said. I'm here. First of all, it is to protect. The second is for the sake of the truth. In the end, it must be for survival. ”
