145 Myth vs Truth

While listening to Tang Erwa's heart, she calculated the time while showing during the day.

When Tang Erwa graduated from college two years ago, it was in 2012.

After the so-called round, it is 2024.

Of course, the daytime show from 2126 will not forget that in the junior high school history textbook, 2024 is called the first year of destruction.

Tang Erwa's "drunken crazy talk", whether others believe it or not, anyway, it was believed during the day.

Because of the belief, the day show developed an extremely strong curiosity.

The planet, which was known as the Golden Age, suddenly collapsed, and there are different opinions.

There are thousands of theories circulating among the people and on the Internet, but none of them have credibility.

Even the so-called authoritative history professors could not tell the real reason for the collapse of the year.

And now, the daytime show is infinitely closer to the truth.

Legend has it that only the ten guardian gods know the root cause of the ruin.

At this time, the person who sat at the same table and drank with Bai Xiu was precisely one of the future guardian saints.

The puzzle of confusing the next hundred years is in front of you, and you can imagine the mood of the daytime show at this moment.

He asked directly: "Why should the world be destroyed?" ”

Tang Erwa was taken aback: "Brother, you weren't scared by me?" ”

Bai Tianxiu smiled: "Just listen to the story, you can say it casually, I will listen to it casually." ”

"Okay, I'm missing someone to listen to. You don't know how miserable I have been suffocating in the past two years, I don't even dare to say anything about my mother and old man, for fear that they will send me to a mental hospital! ”

Tang Erwa does seem to have been holding back for too long, and the secret in her heart is not unhappy.

Now it's rare to meet a bosom friend, Tang Erwa is out of the way:

"It was 2012, and there was a saying in the West that the world was destroyed in 2012, and it took Noah's Ark to save some people."

"I don't believe in this set at all, that [Guiyuan Zhenren] brainwashes me every day, and instills some unscientific things in me every time I fall asleep."

"I woke up during the day and ran to check the information, wanting to slap that bad old man in my dreams and scold his theory for not tenable."

"Who knows, the more information I check, the more reasonable I find out what the old turtle said."

"After two months of checking, I kind of believe what he said......"

Speaking of which, Tang Erwa began to drink again to suppress her shock.

Bai Tianxiu touched a glass with the other party and asked, "What did that Guiyuan real person say?" ”

Tang Erwa put down the wine glass and began to speak at length:

"He told me a few stories, don't look at that bad old man is an Oriental, he tells all the stories of foreigners."

"The first story is about the Sumerians, cuneiform tablets unearthed in those years, which record the myths and legends of Mesopotamia, a planet that once had an earth-shattering flood in ancient times."

"It is recorded on the clay tablet that in the distant past, four gods ruled the planet together, namely the god of the sky, the great protector god, the goddess of war and love, and the god of water."

"Among them, the god of water cares most about human beings and is the patron saint of human beings. At that time, the earth was very densely populated, human beings were constantly multiplying, and the whole world was full of noise, like the roar of a wild bull, so noisy that the gods could not sleep. When the Great Dharma Protector heard the noise of the world, he said to the gods on the seat: The noise of human beings is so harsh that we cannot be at peace. ”

"So, the gods decided to destroy humanity."

"The god of water had mercy on the world, and he came to the palace, stood outside the reed wall, and told the king that a great calamity was about to take place on earth, and that he must hurry to build a ship to save the lives of his family."

"The god of water said, 'Tear down your house, build a ship, throw away all your belongings, and run for your life! Mo is attached to worldly objects, and it is important to save the soul...... Listen, quickly tear down the house and build a ship according to a certain size, in a balanced ratio of length and width. The seeds of all living things in the world are stored in ships. ”

Hearing this, Bai Shixiu interjected: "How does it sound a bit like the legend of Noah's Ark?" ”

"If it were that simple, I wouldn't be intimidated." Tang Erwa smiled bitterly: "The Sumerians, who have long been extinct, appeared in the Middle East. If I hadn't checked the information, I wouldn't have known that on the other side of the planet, the same plot would have occurred. ”

"The Bible is very clear about the myth that Jehovah, the God, repented of his creation when he saw that the sins of mankind were growing greater, and that all he thought of evil things all the day long, and he said, 'I will destroy from the earth all that I have made, and I will destroy men, and beasts, and creeping things, and birds of the air, because I have made them repentant.'"

"But there was a perfect man named Noah, who had three sons, and the Lord the God said to him, "Make an ark of Gopher wood, and make it one by one, and put it on the top of the rosin."

"And the LORD told Noah's ark how it was made, and then he said, I will cause a flood upon the earth, and I will destroy the whole earth, and every living creature that has flesh and breath on the earth will not die. But I will make a covenant with thee, that thou shalt enter into the ark with thy wife, and with thy sons, and with thy daughters-in-law, and into every living creature of flesh and blood, two of each, one male and one female, that thou shalt be in thee, that thy life may be preserved. ”

Noah did as Jehovah had commanded, and after seven days the flood began to spread. The fountains of the great abyss were opened, and the windows of heaven were opened. ”

"And it rained for forty days and forty nights, and the waters rose higher and higher, and the mountains of the earth were submerged, and all life was destroyed from the face of the earth, and the waters were great for a hundred and fifty days. Then the waters faded away, and the ark came to rest on Mount Ararat. ”

Then the top of the mountain appeared, and in a few months the earth was dry. Jehovah called Noah and his family out of the ark and led all the pairs of creatures to begin to multiply in the post-tribulation earth. ”

After a pause, Tang Erwa picked up her wine glass and said, "I thought at the time that one of the authors of these two stories must have copied homework, and I don't know who copied whom. ”

Bai Tianxiu nodded: "These two stories are indeed similar, it may be a coincidence." ”

"If there is another story, it will not necessarily be a coincidence."

Tang Erwa was bored and told the third story:

"There is a similar legend in Greek mythology."

"Zeus, the god of the heavens, ruled the earth, and saw that mankind was becoming more and more cruel and unreasonable, that the human heart was sinister, that the law of the jungle was the strongest, and that justice and propriety were gradually departing from men, and that mankind was the source of evil in the world, and that if he had mercy on them and let them enjoy, he would immediately multiply and become arrogant and arrogant; If you punish them and cause them to suffer some calamities, they will certainly be restrained, but in a moment they will fall and do all kinds of evil; Therefore, it is better to eliminate them all at once. ”

"Zeus was at Mount Olympus, convened a meeting of the gods, and decided to rain heavily to create a flood and drown humans."

"Prometheus, who was punished for stealing fire from mankind, had a son named Gucailin, who was living with mankind in the world, and Gukailin advised mankind from time to time to do good, so as not to suffer divine punishment."

"One day, when he visited his father on Mount Olympus, Prometheus told him that Zeus was going to drown all mankind with a flood soon, and that you should prepare a way to escape."

"Immediately after descending the mountain, he built a sturdy boat and loaded the necessities of life into the ship for refuge. Sure enough, within a few days, a torrential downpour fell from the sky and for several months, flooding the entire land and submerging the mountains. ”

"After a few months, when the rain ceased, and the boat of the Pigeon drifted to the top of Mount Parnassas, and soon the waters receded, and the earth appeared again, but they could only ask the oracle to show them what to do, and God said, "Cover your heads, and go up the hillside, and throw your mother's bones as you go."

"They guessed that their mother was the earth and their mother's bones were stones, so they picked up the stones and threw them back, and a miracle happened, and the stones that he threw became men, and the stones that his wife threw became women, and mankind reappeared on the earth."

After listening, the day show fell into deep thought.

It wasn't until Tang Erwa clinked glasses with him again that Bai Baixiu came back to his senses and said: "The three stories you said have a unified point of view - human beings are the root of all evil, and at a certain stage, they will be destroyed. ”

"yes, that's what I thought at the time." Tang Erwa took Bai Tianxiu as a confidant and gushed: "But Guiyuan Zhenren has another view, he thinks that kind and upright people are worth continuing." ”

"He thinks that good people are not rewarded is a kind of revenge against society, and the human beings who survived in the end in those three stories are a group of kind people."

"The old turtle also went from theology to science with me, and he said that the descendants of good people inherit the genes of goodness and pass them on from generation to generation, and the new human beings in the future will evolve in a new direction."

"The old man also said that when the number of human beings accumulates to a certain extent, it will inevitably breed evil, and then it will lead to another destruction."

"Then the infinite loop, the part of the good people who survived in the end, continued to continue, continued to evolve."

He said that human beings who are on the right path of evolution must be pursuing truth, goodness and beauty.

Hearing this, Bai Baixiu was stunned for a moment.

When he was a child, he heard the old director of the welfare home say that a few decades ago, when there were only 500 million people in the alliance, people were very kind, helped each other, and helped others, but the people at that time were relatively simple.

It wasn't until the population of the alliance exceeded 800 million that it gradually changed its taste.

After reaching a billion people, that is, in the era when Bai Tianxiu lives, people's hearts are no longer so simple.

It can be seen from how many cyberbullying he has experienced on the road to winning the championship.

Despite this, Bai Baixiu still didn't believe such a mysterious statement in his heart: "The so-called gods, every time they use the Great Flood to solve the problem? This is not right, our Oriental Dayu controls the water, and it is very positive. ”

"Haha, that's what I did to that dead old man at the time." Tang Erwa laughed when she heard this, and soon couldn't laugh anymore: "But that old man used another story to tell me that I was old-hearted." ”

"Before Dayu ruled the water, the earliest great flood in Chinese mythology originated from Gonggong's anger to touch Buzhou Mountain."

"Gonggong and Zhurong battled, Gonggong was defeated, and he crashed headlong into Buzhou Mountain. The Buzhou Mountain was a pillar that supported the sky, and it broke when it was struck by the Gonggong, so half of the sky fell, and a big hole was exposed in the sky, and the earth was cracked into a ditch, and the flood gushed out from the ground, and the rolling waves poured all over the earth, and the ocean was so vast that human beings could no longer survive in this situation. ”

"Nuwa Niangniang, who created people, saw this tragic disaster, so she refined the five-colored stone to make up for the sky, broke the four feet of the turtle as a pillar to support the four directions, killed the black dragon to save Jizhou, and piled up ash to stop the water. The heavens are repaired, the four directions are right, the water is exhausted, the heavens and the earth are laid again, and the prudent and kind people can survive. ”

"Attention, it is the prudent and kind people who survive."

"There is nothing in this myth that explicitly states that humanity was degrading at that time, as in other stories, but it also makes an important point - only good people can stay and enter a new era."

Bai Shixiu thoughtfully started a discussion: "Do you believe in this myth? ”

Tang Erwa exudes the temperament of a down-and-out artist: "I think myths, legends, and superstitions are three different things, and they can't be killed as feudal superstitions just because they don't sound scientific." I used to study fine arts, and I studied a lot of statues and buildings, and some things I couldn't explain, like the pyramids of Egypt, like the statue of the giant of Easter Island. ”

"The British ethnologist Fraser once pointed out that among the more than 130 Indian races in North, Central and South America, each race has a myth with the theme of the Great Flood."

From such records that have spread all over the world, one conclusion can be drawn that in ancient times, mankind did experience devastating floods. This kind of historical memory that spreads all over the world cannot be a myth invented at random, and these flood myths are actually expressing the same historical truth. ”

Bai Tianxiu asked, "So, you still believe it?" ”

"Shaken, but not fully believed." Tang Erwa said: "Guiyuan Zhenren didn't believe me when he saw me killed, so he debated with me. The sins in my heart are only those who have committed serious crimes, and the old turtle has another point of view, and sin is hidden in the hearts of men. Therefore, every catastrophe must destroy at least ninety percent of humanity. ”

"I asked him: Is it fair that the Sumerians just quarreled with the gods in heaven and brought about the catastrophe?"

"He didn't answer whether I was fair or unfair, and said lightly: The square dance on the ground is noisy to the gods in the sky, and there is no peace."

"And I asked him: Is it appropriate for Jesus to destroy mankind and leave only Noah's family because he regretted his creation?"

He replied: Jehovah would regret it even more if he saw mankind today.

"I was not convinced, and asked him again: Zeus alone has the final say, he said that human beings are the source of disaster in the world, and if they disagree, they will destroy all mankind, is it unreasonable?"

"Guiyuan Zhenren's answer this time is different, he said: Is it the source of the world's calamity, I'll take you to see."

Hearing this, Bai Shixiu was extremely curious: "What will I take you to see?" ”

Tang Erwa drank again and was shocked, and said with a drunken voice: "He took me through time and space, and that night, I seemed to have experienced countless years, and I couldn't wake up." I see the future of 2013, 2014, all the way to 2024. ”

"I used to think that people in 2012 were no longer humane, and the neighbors who lived in a building in the community basically didn't say hello. When I went to 2023, I found that the people of our era are already good. ”

"In that era, there was no basic trust between people, and there was no basic respect."

"The younger generation of people has not praised others ten times in their lives, but they can scold people on the Internet ten thousand times."

"I saw a post-00 generation younger than me, who kept his mobile phone with him every day, and he could scold people on the Internet hundreds of times a day when he saw who sprayed whom."

"In those days, young people didn't want to get married anymore, women loved boxing, and men didn't want to be boxed."

"In those days, all kinds of false advertisements were flying all over the sky, what a fast yin extreme speed version, you could make money by watching videos, blatantly deceiving people, and the relevant departments turned a blind eye."

"At that time, countless fraud methods were popular, many people were involved in the whirlpool of online loans, and some people were forced to take out loans, leaving behind unsightly photos and videos."

"In those days, scammers deceived people, not thinking that they were wrong, but calling it an [IQ tax], as if it was a final test of the people's IQ. Many retired elderly people have been deceived, and these elderly people have worked hard all their lives, and they have not died of old age, but they have been angry to death first. ”

"In those days, people were afraid to answer strange calls, and everyone knew that answering them was all kinds of fraud. Do you know what's the sassiest thing? The relevant agencies do not deal with the source of these scam calls, but vigorously develop the function of [blocking strange calls], putting the cart before the horse, making criminals more and more rampant. ”

"In those days, I didn't even have to worry about playing a game, and four brothers came to cut me everywhere. There is no game of the four brothers, the screen is full of recharge red dots, and it feels like you are not playing a game, but playing [Red Dot Match]! ”

"When it comes to games, I'm angry, how many built-in ads were there in free games in those days? I don't want the kind of resources that I don't want to watch if I don't see them.,Just watch the kind that you have to order.,The game duration is 58 minutes.,I watched at least 50 minutes of advertising.。 ”

"In that era, men and women went on blind dates, and the attitude of girls changed, as if you were playing a mobile game, just completed the novice guide, and more than a dozen red dots popped up on the screen, and each red dot needed to be recharged, which made your mood instantly worse, and sighed inferiorly: I have no money, I don't deserve to play."

"At that time, the soul of a woman who boxed asked [why are men so confident], but I don't know that girls are more confident, many girls with a height of 1.58 meters, a monthly salary of 3,000, and an average appearance, when they go on a blind date, they require the man to be 1.85 meters tall and start with a monthly salary of 30,000 yuan, how did this confidence come from?"

"In those days, people's aesthetics were getting more and more eccentric, and what you saw on TV was the same face. Male stars are becoming more and more like female artists, and female stars are becoming more and more like male artists. ”

"In those days, public figures no longer relied on their works to speak, but on traffic."

"At that time, formalism was popular, and it was called "ritual". Even the once respected elementary school teacher has engaged in a formality, suggesting that parents give out red envelopes, and some parents take the lead in calling on everyone in the group to give red envelopes to teachers. At first, it was a red envelope on Teacher's Day, and later even the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, and Qingming Festival had to send a red envelope. ”

"At that time, there was a great epidemic that was used to warn the world. A few have given love, and many have not repented. The celebrity donated money, but was subjected to cyberbullying, and the donation slip had to be posted, and netizens frantically forced donations. ”

"In those days, people hid their true nature in reality and liberated their nature on the Internet. I saw a high school girl go to the rink and be groped on the ass by a junior high school boy, who angrily pushed the boy. Later, the boy's mother found out the surveillance video, cut out the part where she touched her buttocks, and posted it on the Internet, causing the girl to be subjected to endless cyberbullying and commit suicide by jumping off the building the next day. ”

"In those days, there were old ladies on the side of the road who fell, most of them looked indifferent, and a few wanted to help, but they didn't dare to help."

"It was a time that surpassed any other sin in history when humanity was destroyed."

When Tang Erwa said this, she trembled.

He drank the last drop of wine from the bottle and said with trepidation: "When I travel back in time to the year 2024, I saw the Great Flood, which was mixed with viruses and infected countless humans, animals and plants...... I also saw beasts of prey come out of the flood, and countless human beings died in that catastrophe! ”
