Heaven and earth are unkind, and all creatures are like dogs.
Looking at this line of annotations, Jia Miao raised her glasses and looked at Lin Wei.
"You want to discuss the Tao Te Ching with me?"
Lin Wei shook his head.
Pointing to the ancient characters, he said, "This group of characters was asked by a classmate of mine to decipher it."
"I spent some time using the "Guixu Text Code" written by you, teacher, as well as the texts we have collected from Guixu over the years, compiled and successfully deciphered as a reference. "
"Just now, I completely deciphered the text on this."
"But I don't know if this is correct, so I want to ask you, teacher, to take a look."
The corner of Jia Miao's mouth raised slightly: "Xiao Lin, your accomplishments in deciphering Guixu characters are among the best in this field."
"Since you have cracked this line of information, let me crack it, and it will basically be like this."
She said looking at the screen.
"Judging from the texts on the antiquities unearthed at Guixu, it is obvious that there were some doctrines and theories of that period."
"They are all spread and have a profound impact on future generations."
"Some of the concepts in the Tao Te Ching written by Laozi during the Spring and Autumn Period are similar to those found on the ancient artifacts of Guixu."
"So now, it's not surprising that you deciphered this set of information."
"It's possible that the real text is not these eight characters, but the meaning should be similar."
Jia Miao stood up, picked up a water glass, and walked to the water dispenser.
"Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs."
"This is a sentence from Chapter 5 of the Tao Te Ching."
"The simplest understanding is that heaven and earth are not kind and only treat all things as lifeless tribute."
"However, if you take this into consideration, you will find that this understanding is biased."
"I prefer another explanation."
"Heaven and earth treat all things the same. No one is particularly good or bad, and everything develops naturally. In other words, no matter what all things become, it is their own behavior, including luck, and has nothing to do with heaven and earth; Heaven and earth let their nature take its course, and everything is like the wind blowing into the night, moistening things silently."
"To put it more simply, it is "Tao follows nature." "
After pouring a glass of water, Jia Miao returned to the table and looked at the tablet on the table.
She took a sip and said.
"Now there are texts in Guixu that express similar views. It is likely that the "ancient civilization" represented by Guixu had similar views on heaven, earth and nature at that time. "
"This view may or may not have spread to later generations. It is just in line with the concepts of the Tao Te Ching in later generations, so the system deciphered the eight-character message "Heaven and earth are unkind, and all creatures are rotten dogs." "
Lin Wei listened and nodded.
Jia Miao put down the water glass and asked curiously: "However, generally speaking, ordinary people have almost no access to the characters in Guixu. Where did your classmate get these characters?"
Lin Wei shook his head: "He didn't say anything."
Jia Miao thought for a while and said, "Who is that classmate?"
"Can you contact him and see where he came into contact with these words?"
Lin Wei said softly: "Luo Yan, he should be in the forbidden area now, in the Magic Fungus City."

Safe Zone Campsite.
Luo Yan and Wei Fenghua were in the command room.
There are only two of them here.
Luo Yangang showed Wei Fenghua the video in the forbidden area.
After watching the exchange between Zhu Yue and Gui Deng, Wei Fenghua said with a shocked expression: "Incredible."
"Incredible."
"The giant beast actually has such intelligence. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it."
Luo Yanchen
He said: "I am also surprised, but this must be a special case."
"Otherwise, four years have passed since the natural disaster, and now the world is full of such super-intelligent behemoths."
Wei Fenghua smiled: "That's lucky, otherwise, we would definitely die from a headache."
He took out the memory card from the card reader: "This team of the Penglai Corps has colluded with the giant beast and wants to plot against you and Biuan. It is understandable that you destroy them all."
"What to do next is the problem."
"I have two plans now."
"One is that you pretended to be confused and kept the fact that Zhu Yue and the others colluded with the giant beast in your stomach. Don't mention it to outsiders. Then you said that you encountered the giant beast in the forbidden area. "You can use it as a shield. "
[In view of the general environment,
"In the dangerous area of the forbidden area, there are many examples of being completely wiped out by higher-level people if you are not careful."
"Your Biyan has the ability of "invisibility", and now it has the blessing of transcendence mode, and its survivability has been greatly enhanced. "
"It's a divine guard machine again. You are a high-level cultivator. Putting these conditions together, it makes perfect sense that you can survive."
"But even so, Penglai has lost a team, and they will still launch an investigation."
"As for what they will ultimately be able to find out and what they will find, it's hard to say."
There was a pause.
Wei Fenghua coughed twice and said again.
"The second option is for us to take the initiative."
"I will back up this video and send it to Di Zheng."
"Next, Di Zheng will file a complaint against Penglai in the name of Duncheng."
"It's you who accuse the members of their corps of colluding with the beasts and endangering the residents of the dungeon and the students of the academy."
"We take the initiative, and with the evidence in hand, we can definitely put a hat on Penglai."
"We have every reason to doubt whether there are people among them who are colluding with the giant beast."
"Of course, if something like this develops in the end, it will definitely turn into a quarrel with no result."
"The advantage is that it will change the focus of the incident from you destroying one of their teams to Penglai proving his innocence."
"Even if they want to cause trouble for you, that will only happen after they clear themselves of suspicion."
Luo Yan said without even thinking about it: "The second option is better."
"Although the first plan is convenient, if the Penglai Corps finds out something."
"Even if I have evidence, I still can't explain it."
"It would also be inappropriate to directly present evidence."
"So, the second option is the safest."
Wei Fenghua nodded: "Okay, let's follow the second plan."
"You're tired too. Go rest and leave the rest to me."
Luo Yan trusted him, nodded and left.
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
Ever since Wei Fenghua sent the evidence to Guangling City, there has been no movement in Penglai City.
this day.
The forbidden area activities for the first-year students were over, and the academy convoy returned to the Hongyue Base under the escort of mechas. They planned to rest for a day or two before returning to Guangling Underground City.
Come to the base.
Bai You wanted to see little Cai Tong, but Luo Yan had no objection.
The two bought some food as gifts at the base and then came to the refugee settlement.
I didn't expect to walk into the resettlement site, but I saw a row of houses burned down.
Medical staff from the base came in and out here, setting up tents to provide temporary medical assistance to injured refugees.
