Volume 2 Tongxin Garden Chapter 156 Love is not needed in a good story
Sure enough, when Xiao Mu opened his eyes the next day, Yu Minghan, who was still beside him, was gone.
Yu Minghan didn't want the parting scene, so he chose to leave quietly before everyone woke up.
All that was left was a note.
After reading the note, Xiao Mu sighed secretly, but there was no other way, so he had to continue the usual process and prepare to spend the first day of Yu Minghan's absence.
"That's good, I didn't see that you are still a very ruthless person~" Xu Yuan in the driver's seat skillfully turned the steering wheel while joking at Yu Minghan in the back seat.
"Why, I'm just...... I'm just not used to dealing with moments of separation. β
"Heh......" Although Xu Yuan sneered, he also agreed in his heart, he is actually a person who does not know how to face parting, especially death.
After a lot of twists and turns, we finally arrived at our destination. The leader was already waiting at the door, and when he saw them coming back, he wanted to wave to them vigorously, but considering his usual mature and steady demeanor as a team leader, he still held his body steadily, and watched them approach with a smile.
As soon as Yu Minghan got out of the car, the team leader personally came forward to greet him, and he led Yu Minghan into the hall, where the other team members had been waiting for a long time, and they all applauded and welcomed the newcomer when they saw the newcomer appear.
"Welcome, welcome, from today this is your new home. Here, you will gain the knowledge, skills, and tools you need to become an angel that will help you become a powerful angel who can stand up to the angels. β
"Thank you."
Yu Minghan glanced at the people here, yesterday they were all wearing combat uniforms and helmets, so Yu Minghan didn't know their faces, but now, they are only wearing civilian clothes, Yu Minghan can see that there are still a few beautiful sisters here.
And the team leader, who looks like he should be in his twenties, is not as old as he imagined. He originally thought that the person who could take the position of team leader should be an old cadre in his forties and fifties.
And Na Su, looking at it again at this moment, it turns out that there is already arrogance and coldness written on his face, but the handsomeness is undeniable.
"I'm the leader of the fireworks guards, Xuanyang. This is Xu Yuan, he and Ah Yuan are both the leaders of our team, of course, Ah Yuan's words are 'once and be'. This is Zhu Peiqing, who is in charge of our team's communications. This is ......"
The leader of Xuanyang introduced the members of the team one by one, there were not many members, nine men and five women. Yu Minghan's words happen to be the tenth man.
"Ah, hello seniors, I'm Yu Minghan. When I first arrived, I don't understand a lot of things, and I hope that my predecessors will give me a lot of advice. β
Yu Minghan bowed to the other teammates, and when he saw it, he smiled:
"Don't worry, I will give you a lot of training for you."
It seems that Su Yuan can't help but carry out the perverted act in his heart against Yu Minghan, Yu Minghan knows this, but he is not afraid, on the contrary, he really wants to see and see, how perverted is it that can make him Haoxu Tianqiong bow down?
"Eh, he's just here, and he hasn't finished learning what he should learn, and if you want to train, it's going to take a few days. You, don't always bully other people's children, what if you scare him? When Xuanyang saw it, he hurriedly intervened and interrupted.
"Huh? If you can be scared, then don't go to the sky, I'm afraid that he is afraid of heights, and if he looks down carelessly, his legs will be soft~"
"Come on, who just went up and wasn't afraid of heights? Shut up, go and do your training. And you, all of you are going to prepare for today's training, don't think that you can take advantage of the opportunity to be lazy when a new person comes. β
Xuanyang asked the other team members to train quickly, causing the other team members to wail. Yu Minghan knew that the miserable appearance of these people now would be what he would look like in the future.
After Xuanyang took the others, he brought Yu Minghan into a room, which looked like a small classroom.
"I don't know what level of education you have, but considering you've spent time in Harold's Underground Garden, the basics aren't much better. However, if you want to become a qualified human envoy, you still need to master a lot of professional knowledge. β
Xuanyang let Yu Minghan sit in his seat, and there were textbooks that had been prepared in the drawer of the table. What is very wonderful is that Xuanyang asked Yu Minghan to take out the textbook first, which is called "Research on the Religious Belief in Angels and Gods".
"Religion...... Why do you need to learn this, or even the first one? β
Faced with Yu Minghan's doubts, Xuanyang smiled and did not answer directly, but asked him rhetorically: "Do you know what the word religion means?" β
"Isn't religion just ...... Something like a person's faith...... Something like this? β
"Oops? You actually know the word, I thought Harold wouldn't teach this kind of thing. Forget it, it's pretty much the case, do you know that in the past, human religion was very reverent for angels and gods, and when people encountered disasters, they always subconsciously thought that they had done something wrong, which made the gods angry, so they would hold a grand sacrifice ceremony to pray for the gods' forgiveness and protection. β
"Why, then, has the two sides become so hostile now?"
"As people gradually found that sacrifices and prayers were completely useless, disasters continued to occur from time to time. Later, science developed, and people gradually realized that fate should not be placed in the hands of God, so they gradually abandoned their belief in God and concentrated on science. It was also at this time that the gods seemed to be really angry, and it was also at that time that the angels appeared directly to attack humans. β
"In that case, the gods are angry because mankind has abandoned the worship of gods because of science."
"From the standpoint point of view, it is likely that this is the case."
Yu Minghan felt very speechless after hearing this, this god does not bless people, and hopes that people worship him, people can support themselves and feel that they have been abandoned, and they are directly angry, no matter how they think, this god is extremely naΓ―ve.
"No wonder people rebel against gods and angels, this is also forced."
Yu Minghan couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, okay, gossip, open the textbook. In today's lesson, we will use the topic of religion to review the history of human beings, angels, and gods, which will help us analyze the current situation. After all, our relationship with the heavens is already equivalent to a war relationship, and there is no harm in getting to know each other better. β
"To understand each other through religion actually means that you don't know each other at all, right?"
"Actually, there is still some understanding, but ...... No way, after all, no one has ever been to heaven, and we don't even know what kind of place the angels live, how can we know too much, we can only see how the ancients described angels and gods. β
The course went smoothly because the content was basically storytelling, nothing more than telling the legends about angels and gods from the previous religions that believed in angels and gods.
"Legend has it that an angel with a golden beard and blue eyes descended on the Northwest Land. He bestowed upon the local people a sacred tree, and the fruit of this tree was not only ugly in appearance, but also emitted a strange and ugly smell. The people stayed away from the tree, until one man couldn't stand it anymore, and he thought that the tree was a joke of the angels to mankind, and that it was not a sacred tree at all, so he went and cut it down. When the tree fell, all the fruits fell to the ground, and one of them rolled down at his feet, and he suddenly thought about what would happen if he ate the fruit, after all, the tree had been cut down by him, and he might not have a chance if he didn't try it now, although it looked ugly and smelly, but curiosity drove him to pick up one and taste it, and the result was ...... He turned into an angel and flew into the sky. β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
"Legend has it that an angel in the form of a child came down to the East. He often appeared on the crowded streets, pretending to be a homeless or separated child, and if someone brought him home, he would be there that night...... Kill that family. β
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌοΌβ
"Legend has it that there was once a female angel who came down to seduce men. If a man is unfortunate enough to be hit, then she will hang that part of him directly and burn it with fire. β
"Stop! Not to mention the inexplicable plot of these stories, and I had no idea what I could learn from them, it made me further less favorable to the angels. β
Xuanyang was protested by Yu Minghan, thought for a moment, and planned to tell him about the legend. So he asked mysteriously, "Do you know the origin of mankind?" β
Yu Minghan was not interested, but replied lightly: "You want to talk about evolution?" β
Xuanyang was a little stunned when he heard this.
"Evolution, what's that?"
Yu Minghan was also a little confused at first, did anyone not know the theory of evolution? But then he thought that he was in another world, and it was normal for this world to be free of something.
"The theory of evolution means that higher organisms evolved step by step from lower organisms, humans can evolve from monkeys, monkeys can evolve from fish, and fish can evolve from single-celled organisms."
Xuanyang listened to it and laughed, saying that this idea was very interesting and full of innocence.
Yu Minghan didn't bother to explain, the two of them live in different worlds, and it is inevitable that they have different worldviews.
But this theory of evolution can be regarded as a good conjecture, after all, it is true that we still do not know how humans came to be. But the ancient scriptures say this:
Legend has it that the world was chaotic at first, dark and empty all around, and later, a god was born in this world, and he brought earth from outside the world to form the earth, water to build the ocean, and clouds to form the sky, and then used these elements to fabricate all things, gradually forming this world, and finally he gathered the primates of all things, and created a sacred tree in the world, and the sacred tree continued to grow, and finally bore fruit - this is the angel. Angels are the children of the gods, so they dwell in heaven with the gods. Time flies, one day, a group of angels were expelled from the heavenly realm and exiled to the earth because they violated the commandments of heaven. β
After hearing this legend, Yu Minghan thought it was very interesting. After all, according to this legend, the ancestors of the human race were exiled angels, and the angels were the children of the gods, which means that humans are also the children of the gods, but they are just abandoned children.
"Didn't those angels commit some kind of sin that led to exile?"
Facing Yu Minghan's question, Xuan Yang nodded with satisfaction - yes, Yu Minghan's curiosity and studious appearance is what he wants to see.
This is what is preached in religion, that people are inherently sinful, and that there are seven major ones. They are called greed, lust, impermanence, laziness, profit, fear of death, and arrogance. β
Yu Minghan savored every word, and then asked: "Since these are human sins, that is to say, the angels have none of them?" β
"Yes, if, according to religion, the angels have no desires, do not think about sexual immorality, are stable in disposition, are hardworking, value others, are not afraid of death, and, most importantly, are able to recognize their own duties and positions, that is, self-knowledge and humility."
"Hmm...... It does feel a bit angelic, so holy. However, such a holy existence is now blatantly killing people. β
"After all, it's just a legend, and it's possible that it's actually very different. Besides, even if the previous ones are true, there is no mention of the cruelty of angels, maybe angels are good in those aspects, but maybe they are a race that likes to kill. β
"But if you really want to say that, the ancestors of the human race are also angels, is it really good to kill the descendants of their former companions like this? I think it must be the ghost of the gods, maybe he thinks that humanity is a filth, so he wants to exterminate humanity from the world. β
"You do have a point in saying this, after all, according to religion, people have so many 'sins', and they are indeed filthy beings."
Yu Minghan didn't want to admit it, it's good that angels are perfect, and it's good that people have a lot of shortcomings, but imperfection itself is not a sin, if you really want to blame anyone, why not blame the god who created all this?
"I still feel uncomfortable, even if God really created our ancestors, but since we already exist, then our survival or not should not be decided by Him. Just as even parents cannot decide the life of their child on their own, it is already decided from the moment the child leaves the mother's body to become an independent individual, and the child is an equal and independent individual like his parents, and his life should be in his own hands. β
"Well, it looks like you're very unhappy with that god. Yes, yes, this is indeed the truth, then it seems that your ideological work to become a human envoy is already in place. β
It seems that the course on religion has fulfilled its task, and it is time to teach some other courses. By the end of all the lessons, a full day had passed.
At dinner, Xuanyang sat beside Xu Yuan and whispered to him:
"Yu Minghan, this kid has a good understanding, and those courses can't be difficult for him. Tomorrow he can start training, and then you have to show mercy to his men. β
Su Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Let me teach him?" β
"Well, after all, you're the best guy on our team, besides, I think you guys are pretty good-looking, if you teach him, he should be able to learn faster."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Yang began to worry - because there was a faint smile on the face of the always cold beard at this moment.
