(When I got home just now, I abridged a lot of discussions, and there will be a more update later)

Cheng Mo didn't wait for Jing Xing to answer and said directly: "I made up this name, not my real name, and the reason why I want to call it Zhinuo..... It's because I'm a disciple of the Stoics, and it was the ancient Greek philosopher Zeno who founded the Stoics. ”

Answering other people's questions at the beginning of the question is Cheng Mo's unique habit, which helps the other party to enter into thinking at the beginning and then follow his logic.

Sure enough, Jing Xing was attracted by Cheng Mo's question, he turned his head to look at Cheng Mo's eyes, those eyes that were like works of art were inlaid under the silver foil that was glowing with light, even though the silver foil covered most of Lin Zhinuo's face, but this did not damage Lin Zhinuo's handsomeness at all, and even added a sense of mystery to him.

Lin Zhinuo's unconcealed beauty made Jing Xing wander slightly, and after a moment, he remembered to figure out what was contained in those eyes.

Jing woke up and condensed, and found that there was no panic in those eyes, and there was no weakness, and some were just calm.

Jing Xing knew that Cheng Mo could speak well and would definitely lead to the following, so he said: "I personally don't know much about philosophy, but Master Lin said that he was a disciple of the Stoics, and I was very interested in learning about it. ”

Cheng Mo turned his head to look at the pigeon-cage-sized prison beside him, the Black Death was more humane than he imagined, there were wooden beds with bunk beds, sinks, commodes with lids, and the cement floor was polished, without a trace of water stains, and it looked relatively dry. If it weren't for the fact that there were as many as eight people, the body odor of the black people was a little heavy, and there were a lot of people screaming in panic around them, this would be a prison with a reluctant environment.

Cheng Mo stopped in front of the prison and turned to look inside, four yellow-skinned Southeast Asians, four blacks. At this moment, there is a black child with curly hair and beard sitting on the outermost bed, he is a bit like a little radish head, a picture of malnutrition, thin hands and feet, white palms holding a plastic bottle of mineral water, the bottle contains a cockroach, the black child is looking at Cheng Mo and Jing Xing standing outside the prison with wide eyes, the black eyes as big as glass beads are not too fearful, but a little curious.

On the bed opposite the black child was a very slender black woman, who looked to be about twenty years old, wearing a cartoon vest and vest full of sweat, the outline of her body was clearly visible, she looked at Cheng Mo and Jing Xing with a blank expression, and her red and swollen eyes were full of anxiety.

Cheng Mo turned his head to look at Jing Xing, who stopped beside him, and then pointed to the black child and said, "Why doesn't he feel scared?" Then Cheng Mo pointed to the black woman on the other bed and said, "Why does she feel scared again?"

Jing Xing shrugged his shoulders, "Because he's still young, he doesn't know what he's going to face." And that old black girl, knowing that her fate was going to be terrible, was going to be terrified......"

Cheng Mo was silent for a moment, and then said: "So people's fear comes from thinking. The same thing, we think differently, and the results will be different. This is the Stoic perception of suffering, and it is not the 'trafficked' thing itself that hurts them, nor the person who sold them, but the way in which the person being sold thinks about what he has experienced. Just like Mandela always thought that going to prison was something he was proud of..... If the sufferer feels that all this is an ordeal that he has to go through, then they will not feel pain and fear......"

Moreover, everything in the world does not appear to meet our expectations, and everyone's destiny will work as it should be, and when birth, old age, sickness and death, lucky disasters will occur. The freedom that each of us enjoys comes from limiting our own power, such as money, power, and body..... and the limits of nature set by God, such as natural disasters, man-made disasters, accidents, ..... Only by understanding this, and going with the flow, can we attain a certain degree of 'freedom'......"

Jing Xing put his hands behind his back, looked at the frightened eyes of several women in the prison, and said: "This is just to teach them to follow the destiny of heaven and look away, and how you think about human trafficking, or whether people like us are bad people.... It doesn't matter!"

Cheng Mo shook his head and said: "It is easy for ordinary people to oppose good and evil, but Stoic people will not think so, we Stoic people will look at problems from the whole, not partial, evil is actually not the opposite of good, but a part of good, just like what is said in "Meditations", no matter how glamorous a person is, there will be dirt on his body, no matter how strong the power of good is, the world will never be able to eliminate evil ....."

"Then what exactly is 'evil'?" After a pause, Cheng Mo asked Jing Xing a mysterious question.

Jing Xing thought for a moment and replied, "According to universal values, evil is to do things that violate human morality. ”

Cheng Mo didn't smile, but a hint of mockery appeared on his face covered with silver foil, "The so-called morality is just the truth after disguise, which exists to maintain social stability and peace, and morality and morality are two different things." People who do bad things are not necessarily evil, and people who do good things are not necessarily good people. I'm sure you'll be able to understand this if you think about it. ”

In the view of the Stoics, what can be explained by the fact that a local evil is not evil when it is placed under the whole? Just as debt default is evil, but the existence of debt default ensures the ecology of the debt market and the efficiency of the use of funds; violence against people is evil, but violent institutions are necessary means to maintain the normal operation of human society..... If there had been no war, no massacre, no such 'evil', then humanity would have perished long ago......"

"Take your creation of human cloning, you are evil to the clones, but from the standpoint of us human beings, they are good, and there are also meaningless evils, such as those psychopaths, but dialectically, you sell 'goods' to them, so that they can vent and avoid other people from being harmed, so this matter is evil for the current victims, but good for the potential victims. To put it more powerfully, the people who can buy these commodities will definitely be able to create greater social value, and let them live, which is more meaningful than letting these commodities live, just like we humans let those cherished animals live, but we keep slaughtering other animals as food!"

"So you ask me what I think about the human trade? I can only tell you that I don't have any particular opinion, the human trade has been going on since the birth of man, and it won't end here, and it won't end in the foreseeable future, it's just ..... When human cloning can become popular, the human trade will become the "evil" of human cloning, and the "evil" of human human human population trade will end in your hands, so are you doing bad things or doing good deeds? I can't tell......

After finishing speaking, Cheng Mo turned around and walked forward, but Jing Xing stopped in place for a long time, at this moment he felt that he was completely persuaded by Lin Zhinuo, and a sense of peace of mind actually rose in his heart, although Jing Xing had long been used to doing these sinful things, but when he dreamed back at midnight, he was often scared by himself.

After listening to Cheng Mo's words, Jing Xing felt that he could sleep well tonight, but he was vaguely unconvinced, he turned around and quickly caught up with Cheng Mo, and asked in a deep voice: "According to what you say, evil is just an illusion under the short-sightedness of us mortals, we should be submissive to the cruelty and injustice inflicted on ourselves, this is indeed a very high realm, so do you also have to be indifferent to the cruelty and injustice inflicted on others?"

Cheng Mo glanced at Jing Xing and said lightly: "Of course you can't stand by coldly. ”

Jing Xing narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
