When I saw Chang Sheng, he was standing on the table with two legs, holding a book in his hand.
"I can't stand it, I can't stand it."
Me: "What's the matter?"
Chang Sheng threw the book in his hand and looked at me:
"I'm idle and bored.I've been recommended to read a few books of Xianxia, fantasy and other networks.I can't stand it.I can't stand it.Wow wow."
Me: "Uh...... Tell me about it."
Chang Sheng: "I found that all online immortal cultivation is a routine? The protagonist is a hairy boy from a rural or small family at the beginning, and then he begins to cultivate, he begins to seize the elixir, kills people and grabs treasures, and then cultivates like crazy, pursues eternal life, immortality, dominates the world, and so on."
Me: "What's wrong, isn't this normal, what's the problem?
Chang Sheng: "There is a problem, there is a big problem."
Me: "Uh, what do you say?"
Chang Sheng: "You don't believe it, then according to what I said, you will know.First of all, the first one, no matter what kind of immortal world you cultivate, the total immortal qi of that world, and the number of elixirs and the like are always limited.
Me: "yes, what's the matter, that's not a problem."
Chang Sheng: "Second, since the hairy boy from a casual mountain village in the cultivation of immortals can be talented, can kill people and sell goods, get the immortal grass elixir, cultivate into immortals, and pursue eternal life, then it means that other people with higher status and greater opportunities are also more likely, right."
Me: "yes......"
Chang Sheng: "Third, the protagonist of all the immortals, and the pursuit of others, is to live forever, right?"
Me: "yes...... What's wrong?"
Chang Sheng: "The problem is here.Since the total aura between heaven and earth is limited.Then if others cultivate a little less, they will have less.right.Then.The person who first cultivated.In order to pursue eternal life, he should kill all the ordinary people in the mountain village who have not yet started cultivating.Isn't it true that one day a young man with extraordinary talent and adventures among them will start cultivating.Threaten his own status.Grab the elixir with himself.Spiritual energy and spiritual veins and so on.Isn't it?"
Me: "That makes sense...... Maybe the man didn't realize it at first."
Victory:" Well, even if the person who started cultivating in the first place didn't realize this, then, when the first seizure of the elixir appeared, wouldn't the person who had been robbed of the elixir be afraid that the people who had taken it would come and take their own elixir again, or wouldn't the person who had seized the elixir push others to themselves, and I was worried that other newcomers who would come later would one day take their treasures like themselves..”
Me: "This ...... Perhaps, the aura between heaven and earth is infinite."
Chang Sheng: "Even if the aura is infinite, but the elixir is always limited, do you say that the elixir is also infinite."
Me: "Maybe it's limitless."
Chang Sheng: "If the elixir is really infinite, then everyone can become immortals, and there will be no ordinary people at all."
Me: "...... Uh, according to what you say, all the people deserve to die."
Chang Sheng: "Yes, all deserve to die, because the pursuit of immortal cultivation is eternal life, eternal life means a steady stream of resources, continuous consumption, means infinite demand, so other people who will compete with themselves for resources should be eliminated in time. The gap between the levels in the cultivation of immortals is so big, that the people of the higher level are enough to kill the people of the lower level in seconds, and the most important thing that the people of the higher level should do is to kill all the people of the lower level and cut off the threat they may have to themselves."
Me: "Well, maybe those cultivators can't bear it, they are all low-level people, and they have good intentions."
Chang Sheng: "Okay, even if most people have good intentions, but can you guarantee that all of them have good intentions, even if 10 million cultivators have good intentions, but if there is a person who is disgusting, afraid that low-level people will threaten him, he will start slaughtering."
Me: "Then other well-meaning cultivators will stop him from slaughtering."
Chang Sheng: "Okay, if the slaughter is stopped, then what about the challenge of the newcomers, you slaughter an evil person, but you may set up countless challengers for your future, and you will lose it.
Me: "This ...... So what do you think those people should do?"
Chang Sheng: "According to what I said, there shouldn't be any small mountain villages in the Xianxia world. All the population in the Xianxia world should be ruled by one or several large inheritance sects, all the common people, the people in the mountain villages should take refuge in that big sect, and the masters of the descendants of the common people should belong to those big clans.
Me: "...... I'm convinced, but, after all, it's the Internet. Don't take it seriously.
Chang Sheng: "Don't take it seriously, how can you not be true, I'm a person who has experienced it myself."
Me: "Of course I won't forget this, that is, in your world, it's like you said, the sect rules."
Chang Sheng: "It's almost, but it's not exactly the same.
Me: "Of course, all Chinese people have seen big TV dramas since childhood.How can they not watch it."
Chang Sheng: "For most people, "Journey to the West" is just a TV series or something, but when I first saw "Journey to the West", I was really shocked, because the world described in it is so similar to our world."
Me: "...... How to say."
Chang Sheng: "Ahhh......h Belch...... That's right, it's Dongsheng Shenzhou, West Niuhe Continent, South Ganbu Continent, and North Julu Continent, right?"
Me: "Well, don't you have four continents in that world?"
Chang Sheng: "Yes, there is a very high mountain in the center of our world, called Mount Meru, and the four regions centered on that mountain have four continents, and our four continents are exactly the same as the topographical descriptions of the four continents in "Journey to the West."
Me: "You're saying that the eastern part of your country is narrow and wide, like a half moon, and the western part of the country is like a full moon."
Chang Sheng (nodded repeatedly): "Yes, yes, yes, exactly the same, the four continents are the four continents, and the terrain is exactly the same as in "Journey to the West".
Me: "Could it be that there are also immortals and monsters in your world?"
Chang Sheng: "Yes, the gods, monsters, demons, and ordinary people in "Journey to the West" all have corresponding existences in us.
Me: "What a loophole."
Chang Sheng: "It's a big loophole.That is, why do the gods exist for the common people.In "Journey to the West", the gods can rely on the golden pill.Pan peach or something is immortal.That is to say, they don't need to rely on the people to provide food to be able to feed themselves.The people and the gods have no interests.But why do they still call for the rain for the people.Frost and dew?In your world.The ruler lives and survives by the people's taxes.So the ruler has to take care of the people's life and interests.But The immortals in "Journey to the West" don't need it.They can cultivate immortal qi by themselves.They can eat peaches by themselves and live forever.Why do you want the common people to exist?Moreover, the number of peaches is not much.The number of peaches is even more limited.And the common people may become immortals by their own cultivation at any time.One more common people can cultivate into immortals.The number of peaches is not enough.Then.The best way for the immortals is to kill all the common people.lest they become immortals and compete for jobs with themselves."
Me: "That's what you say...... It's cruel, but it seems to make sense, but what do you want to say?"
Chang Sheng: "It's very simple.That is, the system in "Journey to the West" is logically unstable.The gods and the common people have no interests.The most important thing the gods should do is to kill the common people.Just like a mouse in your room.It doesn't matter if the mouse steals your cheese or not.It's always right for you to take precautions and kill it before you do."
Me: "Hey...... It sounds a little scary, so is that your world like this?"
Chang Sheng: "That's not what it means.I mean.Since the gods want to care about the people.Then it means that the people must be valuable to the gods.Otherwise, the gods with vast powers won't let one snatch their jobs.Only the harmful populations of the people exist.In our world.The people are a kind of peculiar producer.You can imagine them as a kind of special life form between 'plants' and 'algae'.This kind of producers rely on absorbing sunlight, eating fungi, Bugs and the like produce a lot of chemical energy stored in the body.It is the existence at the bottom of the food chain.But this kind of 'producer' called the common people is not this kind of plant on the earth.First of all, they have a certain amount of intelligence.Although they are not as good as the gods.But they also have some basic intelligence.Intelligence is similar to that of you humans.It is not like a plant that has no intelligence and only grows in a fixed place.' The common people are producers who can migrate at any time according to the changes in the distribution of sunlight caused by the flow of clouds, as well as the distribution of soil nutrients and water sources, so that they can continuously absorb sunlight and other nutrients, and produce starch and sugar. They are intelligent plants, and this kind of plant is the most basic source of food for other creatures in our world, and the 'immortals' at the top of the evolutionary chain get their food by ruling the 'common people', so the common people are very important to the immortals."
Me: "Oh my God, it's incredible, since plants have sapient intelligence, they can walk, so it's not easy for you to get food in that world."
Chang Sheng: "Of course, the common people have a high intelligence, and other creatures have to fight with the plants to get food. Fortunately, the genetic evolution rate of the common people is not as fast as that of other species, they are very weak, and they lack the means to attack. Other species have advantages in physical strength, intelligence, technology, etc., so they can always eat the common people."
Me: "So...... What are the monsters?"
Chang Sheng: "Monsters, can be understood as other species in the evolutionary chain, just like on the earth, don't you have dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, cows and sheep, and other species in your world besides humans?
Me: "What is 'probably'."
Chang Sheng: "It probably means that only those non-immortal species with relatively high intelligence are demons.Some people with low intelligence and insufficient ability can only be ruled by the gods are not demons.There are also some demons who are willing to be kept in captivity by the gods as pets or livestock.Those demons are called 'divine beasts', 'spirit beasts', 'mounts' or something."
Me: "It's exactly like our human world."
Chang Sheng: "Yes, it's just that on your earth, only you humans have the highest intelligence, and in our world, there is an intelligence gap between races, between demons and immortals, and even some physical strength gaps are not as big as those between humans and cats and dogs on your earth. It is said that there are countless magic weapons, boundless mana, one foot high, and one foot high."
Me: "I can't imagine it."
Chang Sheng: "You can think of the Roaring Sky Dog, it is the divine beast of Erlang God, right, in our world, the Roaring Sky Dog, is the traitor of the monsters, he betrayed the monsters in pursuit of glory and wealth, in the pursuit of enjoyment, and possessed the right to mate and resources, and he willingly became the lackey of the gods, and in turn turned against his original monster compatriots."
Me: "So...... It's much easier to understand, and I think that the gods manipulate the weather and climate for the sake of the common people, which is similar to how we in the human world fertilize crops, water them, or use greenhouses to raise the temperature.
By the way, what about the Buddha, what about Hades, what else...... How do you explain the dragon king and the like, since there are immortals, then there are Buddhas in your world, and what is the relationship between Buddhas and heaven?"
Chang Sheng: "Heavenly Court and Buddha are actually the same pants.Let's put it this way.Heavenly Court is equivalent to a government.Jade Emperor is equivalent to the prime minister of the government.Other members of Heavenly Court.Like Tota Li Heavenly King, Erlang God or something, that is, the general of the military department, the general staff or something, as for the Taishang Laojun, Nuwa or something, just like the monarch of the older generation, just like the Queen of England in the constitutional monarchy, there is no real power, only symbols, the power is in the hands of the prime minister, but the queen still has a certain appeal, you should know, on earth, the Swiss system is a committee system, our world's heavenly court is also similar to the committee system, Nuwa and other ancient gods are some founding fathers and other figures, and they are also the head of state during the monarchyHe only served as an old member of the committee, while the Jade Emperor was the sitting prime minister and was responsible for managing the affairs of the Three Realms.
"And those Buddhas in the Western Elysium, they are equivalent to the theocracy of the pope, cardinals, and so on, or a scientific research institution, and at the same time, they are somewhat similar to an opposition party, and they belong to the existence of scientific research, religious belief, and political power in one.
Me: "In other words, the top of your world is a combination of religious theocracy, constitutional monarchy, and councils."
Chang Sheng: "Almost, but the religious parties represented by Buddhism and the government of Tianting Taoism have always been fighting openly and secretly, just like the relationship between Heaven and the Western world in "Journey to the West".
Me: "Well, what is it, then, what is the dragon king, the king of Hades?"
Chang Sheng: "The Dragon King is very simple, the Minister of Water Resources, as for the Hades, think about it, the main responsibility of the Hades is to punish those wicked people, to be responsible for the reincarnation of the common people, so the Hades is equivalent to a collection of waste recycling, garbage decomposition, the head of the production department responsible for machine maintenance, the prison warden in charge of prisoners, and the Minister of Agriculture, who is responsible for the waste and equipment repair, the producer's seeds back into use, etc."
Me: "So, in your world, the Department of Environmental Health, the Prison Guard, the Maintenance Department, and the Ministry of Agriculture are all in one."
Chang Sheng: "That's right."
Me: "Then Hades' power is not very great, no less than the prime minister."
Chang Sheng: "That's why there are eleven Hades, who are in charge of different duties, some manage crop harvesting and sowing, some manage the screening and treatment of bad producers, and even punish them, and some are responsible for repairing production machinery or something."
Me: "No wonder, reincarnation is the equivalent of putting a broken instrument back into use, and replanting the seeds that have been harvested."
Chang Sheng: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, in "Journey to the West", don't the common people want to make incense every year, in fact, incense is to take the initiative to give the fruits and sugar they produce to the gods and Buddhas, in order to pray for the gods to reward rain, dew and sunshine, so that they can continue to produce.
Me: "yes, hey, I see, the common people are the producers, the plants, the monsters are the species at different levels of the food chain, the different consumers, and the gods are the highest consumers, that is, the human beings."
Chang Sheng: "Yes, at a glance."
Me: "Now I'm a little frightened of Wu Chengen.Could it be that he came from your world."Journey to the West" is actually not just a satirical satire of the Ming Dynasty government as interpreted by historical characters.It is not a description of the pursuit of love and dreams in "The Legend of Wukong.,It is an encyclopedia that reflects the relationship between the entire human race and the natural world."
Chang Sheng: "yes, so I'm watching "Journey to the West" I'll tell you about it.In our world, there is a kind of bird with high intelligence.Intelligence is not inferior to that of immortals.There are also some levels of technology.They fly faster than the gods.In Journey to the West, it's the Roc Messenger.For example.The Golden Horn King.The Silver Horn King is in our world.It's two creatures similar to the one-horned rhinoceros.Very intelligent.Very cunning.Of course, there are many other monsters in our world.Tiger Spirit.Fox Spirit, etc."
Me: "So, what about the Bone Spirits?"
Chang Sheng: "It's a species similar to a fungus. You should know Cordyceps sinensis, it's a combination of insects and plants, and the white bone essence is the body of a plant, but it accumulates bacteria, and it forms a living life."
Me: "Incredible, yes...... So, how do you explain those mana, for example, the purple bottle or something?"
Chang Sheng: "That's very simple.The purple bottle can attract living objects.You only need to know the name of the other party.This is equivalent to a kind of intelligent mousetrap that selectively captures objects according to the opponent's breath or physical characteristics."
Me: "yes, what about the seventy-two changes."
Chang Sheng: "Of course, the somersault cloud is a special kind of flying machine, and the seventy-two changes are a special genetic recombination weapon. You can change the combination of body molecules at will, and become any species."
Me: "Pretty much understood...... By the way, the most important thing is almost forgotten, since you said that your world is like "Journey to the West", then, there must be Sun Wukong, what is the Monkey King of your world?"
Chang Sheng: "Of course there is the Monkey King.To use the species of the earth as a metaphor.The Monkey King is a species that resembles both monkeys and apes.Or.Neanderthals are better.He is very similar to the gods in appearance and even genes.He is smarter than most of the immortals.He is also very talented.To use an analogy.He is the last Neanderthal on the earth.He alone represents a species.He can skillfully use the 'technology' of the gods. It even stole the technology of the immortals.For example, the Dinghaishen Needle or something.In our world.The Dinghaishen Needle is a powerful superweapon.There is a magnetic field inside that cancels out the electromagnetic force of the material it is made of.The molecules on its surface are tightly squeezed together by strong interaction force.The hadrons are very close to each other.There is no gap at all.Usually it is smaller than a toothpick.Under the anti-gravity device, it can be suspended in the air.But if you enlarge it.Its volume can become very large.But the total mass remains the same."
Me: "It's god-like technology...... By the way, according to what you say, Pan Tao, Jin Dan or something like that should be an anti-aging drug."
Victory:" It's very smart, Ah Zhen, I can draw inferences, hehe, and let me tell you, the Dinghai God Needle can only be regarded as a conventional weapon, like a banana fan, it is a weapon that creates anti-gravity, it can create an anti-gravitational field, so as to play an instantaneous role of propulsion, and Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace, it is a kind of mass transformation weapon, it can destroy any high-density and high-mass object, turn it into pure energy, and then recombine it into the material materials needed. Of course, this requires very strong external energy support. Let's talk about Sun Wukong. In our world, it was originally a fungal creature similar to a stoneBut as time went by, it slowly evolved, and it became a humanoid creature, and he was also taught science and technology by a member of a green environmental protection organization at that time, that is, the gods secretly helped him learn a large number of the core technology of the gods, so as to quickly form an army. Sun Wukong thinks.Everything in our world should not be decided by the gods.Other species.Like demons.Mortals.Should also be free.Unrestrained.Can sit on an equal footing with the gods.Should not be ruled.So he began to unite with other demons.Formed an army.Intended to overthrow the rule of the heavenly court.In the early stage of the rebellionSun Wukong's concept has been supported by a large number of demons.Heavenly Court dispatched an army of 100,000 people.But it can't take Sun Wukong.In the end, he had to compromise.Let Sun Wukong serve in Heavenly Court.Sun Wukong weighed the pros and cons for fear of expanding the damage.So he compromised.During Sun Wukong's tenure in Heavenly Court.Heavenly Court secretly let the Seven Fairies.That is, the Zixia Fairy, the youngest of the seven forest rangers, get along with Sun Wukong.Finally.Sun Wukong, who was originally very naughty.Slowly and slowly fell in love with that simple little girl.Just like the movie "King Kong"."
In the end, when Sun Wukong realized that Heavenly Court recruited him as just a deception, Sun Wukong once again raised the banner of resistance, but Heavenly Court used Zixia as a hostage, seized Sun Wukong's weakness, and finally, Rulai appeared, and suppressed Sun Wukong with a substance with a density close to that of a neutron star, so that Sun Wukong could no longer break free...... Sun Wukong was defeated, he was completely defeated, the great cause of a thousand years was burned, and the dream of turning the whole world into a hundred gardens of civilization was also in vain."
Speaking of which, Chang Sheng is already in tears.
"Sun Wukong was defeated.His original base.Huaguo Mountain was burned to ashes.His monster brothers scattered and fled.Collapsed.Some were arrested.Some lived in seclusion.Some kept fleeing and waiting for an opportunity.Sun Wukong's two most powerful brothers were the Bull Demon King and the Dapeng King.If Sun Wukong was the commander.The Bull Demon King and the Dapeng King were the two deputy commanders.Their abilities were better than the Monkey King.But after the Sun Wukong was defeated.As a result, the Bull Demon King was recruited by the Heavenly Court and was sent to the frontier.And the Dapeng King replaced the leadership of the Sun Wukong.Still struggling to support the endgame.It is the biggest rebel.The original body of the Dapeng King was a HaidongqingHe is very capable, but he is also defeated under the attack of Heavenly Court.The King of Dapeng has a lover.She is a fox spirit.In order to help the King of Dapeng, she does not hesitate to seduce the Bull Demon King who has been recruited and assigned.I want to bring the Bull Demon King back and cooperate with the King of Dapeng to resist Heavenly Court.But I was recognized by the agent of Heavenly Court, Marshal Tianpeng, Zhu Bajie, and failed.The fox spirit escaped in embarrassment.And the Dapeng King will make peace.But the location of the Dapeng King's base has been exposed.The people of the Heavenly Court have been killed at the door.As a last resort.The Dapeng King has opened a parallel space channel.Transmitted all his consciousness and civilization and scientific and technological information to your universeAnd in your world, he created a supercomputer called 'Lingyuan Jindan', which descended on Earth (this technique is very similar to the magical civilization of the Blue Moon) and fled to another world...... That is, the earth, they try to rebuild their power in other worlds, and at the same time find the ultimate theory of the entire universe, which is what the heavenly court calls the 'Tao'. As long as you master the ultimate theory of the universe, you can create any super weapon.At that time, it is no longer a pipe dream to return to your own world to resist the heavenly court.Although the technology of the immortals has reached a height close to that of a god-level civilization.But they are still not a real god-level civilization.They have not yet mastered the ultimate theory of the universe.So.The monsters still have a chance.In the case of the defeat of the Monkey King.The Bull Demon King was recruited.The Dapeng King fled.The monsters ...... They firmly believe that one day, they can overthrow the rule of Heaven, let all species in the world be equal and free, and create a world of great harmony without distinguishing between you and me...... They have always believed in ......"
Speaking of which, Chang Sheng's eyes were already red, his eyes were moist, and his tears were falling.
Me: "So, have the youkai found the ultimate theory?"
Chang Sheng: "The ultimate theory of the universe, that is, the Tao, is in the hands of one person, that person, that is, ...... Miyoko."
After that there was a long silence.
Me: "In "Journey to the West", the Monkey King came out from the bottom of Wuzhi Mountain.
Victory:" Later, there was a secret struggle for power between the two forces of Heaven and the Buddha Realm.At that time, the forces of the Buddha Realm were weak.Rulai invited Sun Wukong to be his agent.To clean up those resistance forces.Expand his influence in the political circles and the people.Do you mean.I can even handle the headache of your Heavenly Court Sun Wukong.What can you do with me?Although Heavenly Court is not convinced.But after all, Sun Wukong can also help them clear some resistance forces.It also has some use for them.He also turns a blind eye to the practices of Rulai.Sometimes he also helps Sun Wukong.But at that time, Sun Wukong was not only an agent of Heavenly Court to eliminate demons.It was also the Buddha to promote his political thoughtsBut it is no longer the Monkey King who had dreams and ambitions, and the people would rather believe that the Monkey King was forever suppressed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, and they don't want to believe it...... I don't want to believe that he has become a lackey of Heavenly Court and Rulai.Some people say that Sun Wukong did that because Sun Wukong has lost his memory.He was manipulated by Rulai.Some people say that he is for Zixia...... Who knows, anyway, the monsters were defeated, and from then on, the gods and Buddhas ruled the world, and the monsters, mortals would never be able to raise their heads...... Forever...... Although there are also people who insist on their beliefs, firmly believe that one day Sun Wukong will recover his memory, will stand up again, and will resist the tyranny of the heavenly court, Sun Wukong will restore the brave, strategic, and dreamy person he was at the beginning...... But it's no longer possible."
At this point, Chang Sheng was already full of tears, his eyes were glazed, he didn't say any more, and I already understood the answer.
I said, "Chang Sheng, actually, you're the Monkey King, right?"
There was a dead silence.
Who is sighing in the night when no one is around?
