"Is it really good to block all those people under the mountain?"
While eating, Ran Qingning couldn't help but ask.
She has some cultivation now, and she still knows a little bit about what happened at the foot of the mountain.
"Why is it bad?" Su Chen shrugged and gave her a funny look.
"Well..." Ran Qingning pondered for a moment and said:
"When the end... after the end, many of them will... die, right?"
"And I...I think what they said is right. Let them come...up to the mountain. After all, they can help...right?"
After saying that, she opened her eyes wide and looked at Su Chen cautiously, as if she was afraid that she said something wrong.
"If you have anything you want to say, just tell me. You don't have to be so cautious." Su Chen pinched her pretty face and said:
"I'll get them up the mountain, but not now."
"What you just said is right. Many of them will indeed die in the apocalypse, but what does this have to do with me? On the contrary, for me, not letting them go up the mountain at this time can avoid a lot of trouble."
"When they have experienced the end of the world, truly seen the ferocity of those walking corpses and ferocious beasts, and have endured hunger, then I will let them come up the mountain."
Seeing the surprise in Ran Qingning's eyes, Su Chen smiled and said:
"Do you think I'm bad?"
"No..." Ran Qingning immediately wanted to deny it, but under Su Chen's gaze, she still said honestly with a guilty conscience:
"Yes...a little bit."
"Why? Because it goes against your three views to not save someone?" Su Chen smiled nonchalantly.
Ran Qingning nodded.
Su Chen was not surprised at all. After thinking about it for a moment, he said:
"Your current world view, outlook on life and values are all based on the existing social order and are the three outlooks suitable for modern society. But once the end comes and the modern order collapses, the behavioral pattern you believe in will not be the same. Goodbye is fitting for a post-apocalyptic world.”
“In the midst of chaos, this old way of thinking won’t help you, it might even kill us.”
"You first need to examine whether your three views are imposed on you by the modern social order, or whether they are summarized by you through constant observation and learning. The former is only suitable for a specific social environment, while the latter can make you adaptable at any time and in any world. Make sure you have enough adaptability.”
"You need to try your best not to set standards of good and evil in this world, because the so-called good and evil are the products of a specific social environment, and the world will never have an eternal environment. Just like fairness and justice can only be done as much as possible. Just like pursuit rather than objective facts, the world has its own set of operating logic. You can distinguish between the real world and the world in your fantasy. If the two are confused, the three views you have established will easily collapse. "
"That's why I won't let these people come up the mountain."
"..." Ran Qingning blinked.
Didn't understand.
Su Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, thought for a while and then said:
"Just like now, those people at the foot of the mountain, including you, all think that I should put them on the mountain, and then use my strength to provide them with shelter when the doomsday comes. After all, according to modern people's three views, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. The bigger it gets, the natural thing to do.”
"After the end of the world, order collapsed. This mountain is self-contained, and I will naturally become the leader here. At this time, in your three views, as a leader, I will let everyone live a good life and have enough food. Wearing warm clothes, living and working in peace and contentment is also a matter of course.”
"After having enough food and clothing, we can make everyone live a better life, and even strive to restore everyone's living standards to the levels before the end. That is what is more natural."
"This is a matter of course for everyone. It seems that the world should be like this, but it is not the case for me, because I have no obligation to do this, let alone to be a leader and accept other people. The so-called With great ability comes great responsibility. This is a setting imposed on me by others, so why should I abide by it?"
"Now, do you still think that these things that you take for granted are the things that should be taken for granted?"
"Many times, what most people take for granted is just a hope and appeal. If you can distinguish this, then the gap between reality and hope will give people the motivation to work hard and work hard to make the world what you imagine it to be. .”
"If you cannot distinguish this point, the conflict between reality and what people think is 'natural' will only bring resentment, decadence and spiritual conflict, and will collapse the three views you originally established in a specific environment."
"But unfortunately, there are not many people who can distinguish between reality and fantasy. Therefore, on the Internet, you will often see some students who have just left the ivory tower of school and entered the society. Their views have collapsed because of some trivial things. , and then blame others, the essence is that they fail to distinguish reality, think that the world is as beautiful as they imagined, and cannot accept the dark side hidden under the beauty."
"These darknesses that can collapse the outlook of students who have just left society are nothing more than insignificant flaws in the modern social order. Now the modern order is about to collapse, and the world is about to enter a stage of complete disorder and chaos, even those under the mountain People who consider themselves social elites may find it difficult to change their thinking patterns.”
"So, I chose to let them see the cruelest reality under the apocalypse at the foot of the mountain. In this way, they can establish a correct understanding and figure out their own position after going up the mountain. Instead of leaving me to them in the apocalypse Everything is taken for granted.”
Su Chen was cooking while talking, and just finished finishing the meal.
He picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth. Looking at Ran Qingning, whose eyes were already full of confusion, he rubbed her head affectionately:
"Okay, don't think so much. These things have nothing to do with you, and you don't need to care. I have everything."
Ran Qingning paused, seeming to blame herself and said:
"Did...did I cause...trouble for you?"
"This is no trouble. It's just a casual chat while eating." Su Chen shook his head, looked at his phone and said:
"I'm going out later, and I have something to do when I return to Demon City. You should pack up and get some rest early."
"With Xiaoqing watching, the mountain is very safe. If you encounter someone with evil intentions, you are also capable and can just kill them without any worries."
"You...won't you be back tonight?" Ran Qingning asked in a low voice.
Su Chen glanced at the room and smiled:
"There is only one bed in this temporary cabin. Can we sleep together when we come back?"
"No, no, no... don't." Ran Qingning said quickly, her face suddenly turned bright red.
Su Chen didn't care. Anyway, he didn't plan to rectify this girl on the spot right now. He was too busy recently and he didn't have time to think about it.
However, when he reached the door, he couldn't help but look back at the shy Ran Qingning and said:
"I'm going out, do you want to give me a goodbye kiss?"
Ran Qingning looked up at him in surprise. After hesitating for a while, she stood up and pecked him gently on the face, and then ran away like a frightened kitten.
"I...I'm going to clean up the dishes..."
...
