Chu Hao himself didn't expect that the name of this sage would be so simple, but on the other hand, it was indeed possible, if one of his guesses was true, then this qiē was just the beginning......

The king is respectful, the nobles are respectful, and the people around them are respectful, and this kind of respect has even carried a lot of unnaturalness, because they don't seem to have even the slightest suspicion, which is actually very unnatural, so in addition to Chu Hao's calm expression, Zhang Heng and the others were suspicious, and even on guard, afraid that this group of people would lead them into a trap, such as an ambush behind a small screen with fifty axes, and with a command, everyone was killed, and they had to be chopped into meat sauce or something......

But obviously Zhang Heng and they were too worried, but the king and the nobles really believed in Chu Hao's identity as a sage, and they really held a banquet in the palace, and their words were full of compliments, and they didn't even talk about the city's disasters at all, while Chu Hao was polite, distant, and reserved to deal with it, which caused the king and nobles to be more respectful, and this banquet was not until late at night, and Chu Hao and the others were welcomed into a luxurious room, which was obviously where they slept that night.

As soon as they entered the room, the three soldiers had instinctively begun to explore the entire room, although it was impossible to have any eavesdropping equipment in this era, but it was always right to be careful, and there were also the most rudimentary eavesdropping facilities in ancient times, such as buried copper pipes or something, these things are not high-tech, but they can really be eavesdropped, and the three soldiers are actually looking for these.

But fortunately, I don't know if it's because the people in this world are simple-minded, or if the civilization evolution era of this world is too low-end, but this room is clean, until the three of them nodded, Zhang Heng immediately couldn't wait to ask: "It's unlikely, it's so simple to be recognized as a sage?" People in this world are sick in the brain, right? Even if there is epic evidence, it is impossible for such an idiot to believe it, right? ”

Chu Hao smiled, didn't answer first, but sat on a chair, then picked up the silver kettle on the table and poured a glass of wine, and took a sip before saying: "It is impossible from common sense, and it is also impossible from the perspective of human nature alone, because human nature itself has a factor of doubt, which is an objective fact, even if the evidence is 100%, it is absolutely impossible to believe it absolutely 100%, otherwise, where does scientific progress come from?" So this unsuspecting attitude alone is already a clue. ”

"Then we straighten out all the clues we know about the sage from the beginning, first, the sage does exist in this world, or in the past, there is almost no doubt about this, again, there are gods in this world, the gods are high, have the power to rule and even subvert the world, they require human beings to bow down to them, so there is the most basic contract between gods and men, God shepherds human beings like lambs, and human beings worship their own wool like lambs, Goat's milk and even flesh and blood to the gods, and finally, as time went by, the sages gradually became scarcer and rarer, and in the end, only legends and epics remained......"

When Chu Hao said this, he already sneered, and after a while, he continued: "In this way, why these people are so convinced that I am a sage, and the king and nobles have not the slightest suspicion, they have told the whole city with great fanfare, without the slightest fear that I may dilute their authority and offer me the highest etiquette, this qiē reason has been clearly understood......"

Although he said that, Zhang Heng and the other three soldiers were still at a loss, and the three soldiers didn't have any words, but Zhang Heng had no scruples, and he continued to ask, "Oh? What exactly is the reason? Even though you said that, I really didn't understand it...... Please, Chu Hao, can you explain it to me in human language? ”

Chu Hao was a little weak, he patted his forehead, and still said, "Okay, I'll just say it simply, under what circumstances do you think what you say will not be suspected?" ”

Zhang Heng was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "If there is evidence? Or if you have common sense, like I say that the sun rises in the east, no one will doubt it. ”

"yes, common sense ......"

Chu Hao sneered slightly, and he continued: "If we think about it in another direction, the existence of a sage is already a common sense for the people of this world, that is, there will definitely be no one pretending to be a sage, so when I declare that I am a sage, will the people of this world still doubt it?" ”

"How is that possible?"

This time it was not only Zhang Heng, but even the other three soldiers couldn't help but ask curiously, while Chu Hao waved his hand and took another sip of the wine in his hand, and then continued: "It is really impossible from common sense, because the authority of the sage is too great, never underestimate the wisdom of human beings, even if there is no little mortal strength, human beings also have ways to deceive from various aspects, is this still less seen in the real society?" If you say that what is black is white and what is white is black, it is not true even if you see it with your own eyes, so why did the people of this world not deceive the people and the king and call themselves sages? You know, once you become a sage, power, money, status, and land will follow, don't sue me, people in this era are really absolutely simple and self-denying, this is a defect in human nature, if you want to rely on human nature to overcome it, it is absolutely impossible, so why? Why is there no one pretending to be a sage? ”

"That's why it's easy to start from scratch with all the information you know...... Gods! ”

"The god-man contract of this world, the gods are the masters of the human race, they play the role of shepherds, shepherd human beings, there are black and white sheep, but they can't get out of the category of sheep, then if one day, one of the sheep begins to change its form, becoming an orangutan, like the gods of the human form, although not yet gods, but also has the power of throwing stones (magic), has been out of the category of sheep, the most important thing is, This mutated sheep (human) is also identified by all the sheep as one of the flock, and it already has the strength and wisdom to lead the flock, you say, what is the reaction of the gods in this situation? ”

Zhang Heng and the three soldiers were all shocked, and Zhang Heng immediately said: "If it is replaced by us humans shepherding sheep, then this mutated sheep will be killed as soon as possible, because it is likely to lead the sheep to become independent, and even become the new god of the sheep." ”

"That's right."

Chu Hao nodded, and said with a sneer: "Don't talk about this world, in the real world, hasn't the same thing happened on our earth?" It is clearly written in the Bible, all beings are the lambs of God, shepherded by the pastor appointed by him, and all those who try to get involved in this pastoral right are all beaten into the ranks of demons, this is the realm of God, or this is the foundation of God, this is the cornerstone of God, even if the whole world is washed away by a flood, and the whole world is brought over again, this foundation is absolutely impossible to give to others. ”

"Of course, this also depends on the situation, for example, in this world, the gods and humans live together, and the contract between the gods and men is actually a very unfair contract between slave owners and slaves, when there are similar heroes, similar leaders, and can lead slaves to their own independence or human revolution, the gods will definitely purge such characters, and this is where there are many epics in this civilization, such as sages in order to save the country, save the people, to complete all kinds of incredible tasks, or to be by the gods' Commission', to slay powerful monsters or something, these epics are still left by successful sages, but what about the failed sages? It is absolutely possible that the number is tenfold and hundredfold. ”

"To put it bluntly, the so-called sages, in fact, are the human beings who have naturally comprehended the power of mortals in this world of demons or high demons, and they are actually the seeds of humane change in this world, but the gods have stifled them, so humanity has not progressed, and instinctively, humanity and the gods have begun to fight each other, and the gods can no longer make humans with this power into demons, and after a long period of accumulation, humanity and Shinto have irreconcilable contradictions, and the so-called disasters or something, are just leads......"

When Chu Hao said this, he drank all the red wine in the glass in one gulp, and then continued: "So you understand, right? Why didn't the humans of this world fake themselves into sages, because that is deadly, there must have been people who did this before, but the gods don't care if you are a real sage or not, whenever a sage claims to appear, then the gods will definitely have action, either send their monsters to attack and kill, or threaten in the name of 'commission', to die, or become the dogs of the gods, it's that simple, sages for this world...... But it's the enemy of the gods! ”

When the words fell, Zhang Heng and the three soldiers were still receiving this information, and from the window of this room, there was already a sound of wind fanning, dense, as if it was a large flock of birds, and it was like a large flock of bats, no matter what it was, its target was ......

That's five people in this room!
