EBE Chapter 825 Good is evil
Chapter 825 Good is evil
After Yuan Rongyi's twists and turns, Wu Yi couldn't tell whether she wanted to go with him or just give him the Six Dust Order and let him go alone.
So Wu Yi asked again.
It can be sensed that Yuan Rongyi was in a huge dilemma.
If Wu Yi encountered such a thing, he would at most tell the other party the location of the Six Dust Temple. He would not say a word about his experience with the nun when he was young. The so-called Six Dust Order was even more of a delusion.
Yuan Rongyi deserved the word "gentle" for being entangled in this, but it was a pity that the word "gentle" was sometimes not a compliment but a derogatory word in the cultivation world.
If she wasn't so gentle, she wouldn't be hurt so deeply by this world!
In the eyes of almost everyone, gentleness is a sin! And Wu Yi has been on the verge of caution and persecution delusion since the beginning of his cultivation. Meeting a person like Yuan Rongyi is like a handful of clear water moistening his heart and a breeze caressing his hair.
Wu Yi hasn't felt this feeling for a long time.
Even if you believe that human nature is evil, you will not reject the kindness in the world. Wu Yi is like this. Yuan Rongyi's actions made Wu Yi not regret his previous decision. After hesitating for a long time, Yuan Rongyi took a long breath and said: "Anyway, I am alone now and have nowhere to go, so let's go with the senior!" Wu Yi didn't know how to evaluate her decision. The world pierces me with needles and cuts me with knives, but I still repay it with tenderness. In the eyes of normal people, how to repay virtue with virtue? It must be to repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with justice! You repay grievances with virtue, but others may not take your virtue to heart. People who are kind are bullied, and horses who are good are ridden, and they will only bully you more and more. With clear eyes and bright smiles, Wu Yi almost forgot that she had experienced a big change in her life before! This woman is not a disciple of Jishan Sect. Why did she do this? What good is this for her? People from the Jishan Sect accumulate good deeds every day, and their luck can make them fly to heaven in broad daylight. What did Yuan Rongyi get?
Perhaps it would be better for her to follow the path of the Jishan Sect. Wu Yi thought deeply and was stunned for a moment. The Jishan Sect is one of the five major sects of Taoism. It does not have the realm divisions like the Danding Sect, but only observes their merits and luck. People from other sects will not attack people from the Jishan Sect for no reason, otherwise they will bring bad luck to themselves.
Wu Yi used the Dingyun Star Plate to observe Yuan Rongyi's luck, and found very sadly that her luck was very meager and her merits were few. Logically speaking, the luck and merits of such a good person should be more than those of ordinary people!
There is only one answer, that is, her kindness was swallowed up by the cold reality. No one appreciated her feelings, and perhaps they would think that she was pretending. No one accepted her kindness, so her luck and merits were naturally not much.
The world is very real. Whether you admit it or not, the masses are afraid of power but not virtue. Therefore, whether Wu Yi governs Yanxuan Tianchi in human form or Mingyue Realm in inner demon form, he always uses both kindness and power, and even more power.
The goldfish under the seat of Guanyin Bodhisattva ran away to harm the human world. After Wukong learned the details of the goldfish, he ran to the South China Sea to ask the Bodhisattva to come forward. Guanyin Bodhisattva deliberately appeared in ordinary makeup and subdued the goldfish.
The people cheered for the kindness of the Bodhisattva, but they didn't know that the Bodhisattva deliberately released the goldfish to stop the four people from going west. The Bodhisattva was the source of their suffering.
But the people didn't know, they would only cheer, and after the next goldfish appeared, they would continue to wait for the Bodhisattva to rescue them. If they want the Bodhisattva to rescue them, shouldn't they pay more incense money (taxes and corvée)? Otherwise, why should they save you, a commoner?
(The story of Guanyin Bodhisattva and the goldfish is in the 49th chapter of Journey to the West: Sanzang's house was in trouble and sank into the water, Guanyin rescued him and found a fish basket.
Those who are interested can find it and read it again. Journey to the West is the foundation of today's fairy-tale novels, but many people only see the excitement of slaying demons and eliminating monsters, but fail to find the people and events behind it.
The reason why Journey to the West can become one of the four great classics is definitely not because the fairy-tale story is well written, but because of the allusions behind it, otherwise the Investiture of the Gods should be included in the four great classics.
Hu Shi in modern times said: "Journey to the West" is at most a very interesting humorous novel and mythological novel; it does not have any subtle meaning, it is at most a little cynicism that likes to scold people. This cynicism is also very clear; it is not hidden, and we don't need to ask deeply.
Comparatively speaking, Hu Shi's level is a bit low, only from From a literary perspective, not from a historical or even philosophical perspective.
Journey to the West does have many historical loopholes, such as grafting the Ming Dynasty bureaucracy onto the Tang Dynasty, grafting the Song Dynasty Taoism onto the Tang Dynasty, and forcibly reversing the time of Emperor Taizong's death. You can say a lot.
But please believe that this is one of the four great masterpieces, not a third-rate book.
In comparison, Lu Xun's words are more objective.
Lu Xun said: Wu Chengen's humorous novel Journey to the West, which writes about Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, contains profound content. It is a mythological work with the meaning of resisting feudal rule. Wu Chengen is good at being funny, and the joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness of the monsters he describes are close to human nature, so everyone likes to read it.
Resisting feudal rule is definitely not just a sentence that the emperor takes turns, and it will be my turn next year.
To put it bluntly, Journey to the West is my political enlightenment book. Similarly, I also hope that if you have time, you can face this famous book and read it again from a historical or even philosophical perspective. Your life will change. changed.
Because many things cannot be changed by changes in the feudal system and the socialist system.
Many of the contents of this book written by Sanren also come from Journey to the West.
Many people hope that Sanren will recommend books to gain their keen insight. You all read novels, such as *** anthologies, and even you who are as advanced as Das Kapital can't read them. Journey to the West should be your best choice. )
Good people will be rewarded with good things, and evil people will be rewarded with bad things. Most of the time, it is just a kind of psychological comfort. It is a kind of helpless resistance to reality, also called the Ah Q spirit.
Ordinary people suffer in silence, waiting for the evil dragon to save them, but they don't know that the evil dragon is the source of their sins. The dragon-slaying warrior rises up to attack, but is dazzled by the evil dragon's treasure, and scales slowly grow on his body. .
Most of the young dragon-slaying boys in the past also turned into dragons in the end.
There are still a very small number of dragon-slaying warriors who have not degenerated, but their companions have deteriorated. They then kill the dragon-slaying warriors and put the dragon's skin on the warriors to frame the transformation of the warriors.
(Guess who the last paragraph is about?)
