Modern world, year 3435.
Lu Cheng got a pottery urn filled with immortal trees and placed it on Yuxu Peak.
He also got "Yu Emperor's Map of Mountains and Seas", "Nine Bian" and "Nine Songs".
He called Bai Wenxi over and passed her "Nine Debates" and "Nine Songs."
During the Mid-Autumn Festival of this year, when the Lu family was worshiping the sky, Bai Wenxi held the golden sacred tree and sang the "Nine Songs" first. As a result, bright meteors were attracted, and a large amount of sky dew fell from the sky, except for a part of it. In addition to falling on Yuxu Peak and many monks, it also harvested thousands of drops of Jade Dew from the Sky, five times the harvest in previous years!
Later, she led the singing of "Nine Debates", which brought an even more fantastic scene. In the quiet night sky far away, a dazzling aurora appeared. The colors were red and green, as beautiful as a dream. They kept changing in the sky, bringing a sense of wonder. Come to the indescribable law of the great road.
When Bai Wenxi finished singing "Nine Debates", those far-off auroras suddenly appeared in front of them, fell on everyone's heads, and poured into the depths of the marrow sea, bringing great benefits to the monks present! There was also a part of the aurora that turned into a pill as big as a fist, fell from the sky, and was put into a jade bottle by Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng took a closer look and found that those elixirs were almost identical to the "Wanxiang Ying Dan", or the "Tai Shang Purple Gold Pill" he harvested at the bottom of the Arctic!
"It's incredible! Just chanting "Nine Bian" can bring 9 Supreme Purple Gold Pills! This is a pill condensed by Hongmeng Purple Qi, and it is a good thing that the fairy world dreams of."
He understood in his heart that there were complete laws of heaven on the earth, and a small amount of Xuanhuang Qi and Hongmeng Purple Qi could be derived every year. If the Lu family worshiped the sky every year and summoned the Jade Dew of the Sky and the Wanxiang Yingdan, it would bring harm to the earth and could not Let the earth be promoted to a high-level plane before the great catastrophe comes.
"Hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix" and "ten days across the sky" are controlled by certain immortal emperors and demon gods, and the recovery of spiritual energy on the earth is also controlled by them!
According to the marks in "Yu Emperor's Map of Mountains and Seas", after the fusion of the bird world, "Jiuzhou" will be the center of the entire world. The fairy spiritual energy here is extremely rich, and it has complete laws of heaven, deriving the dew of the sky and the lingering of all things. Dan, because of this, countless immortals and Buddhas gathered in Kyushu, colliding with each other and causing boundless evil!
Through this kind of killing, more than 90% of the immortals will be lost, and the mortals will be completely injured, blood will flow into rivers, the sky and the earth will change color, and more black and yellow energy and Hongmeng energy will be born to fulfill those immortal emperors, gods, demons, and Buddhas. Lord, Hundu Daluo Jinxian, achieve higher achievements.
For this reason, Lu Chengcai made a desperate move and unscrupulously worshiped the heaven every Mid-Autumn Festival, stealing part of the Xuanhuang Qi and Hongmeng Purple Qi in advance, so that the earth's spiritual energy could not reach an extremely rich level, and it would not be easy to become the center of the world.
Immortal spiritual energy is too rich and is not a good thing for mortals and low-level monks. Because fairy spiritual energy contains oxygen isotopes, it can cause physical damage to mortals. The immortal spiritual energy is too rich, and mortals will die!
After the sacrifice to heaven was over, everyone dispersed.
Jiang Qiuyun called Bai Wenxi over and praised her for a while.
Bai Wenxi was very happy: "Thank you, old lady, for entrusting me with this important task. As the lead singer, I have benefited greatly. My skill has broken through to the fifth level of Tianwu."
She had been practicing hard, but her skills were always lower than her husband's. This time, her skills surged overnight and she had already caught up with Lu Yideng, so she was filled with joy and walked down the mountain briskly.
Later, Jiang Qiuyun asked Lu Cheng: "I remember many years ago, every time you offered sacrifices to heaven, you would bring thunder and lightning. Ever since Bai Wenxi took the lead in singing, I have never heard thunder again. I don't know why. "
Lu Cheng smiled and said, "Maybe I don't sing well and I am not liked by heaven."
"What is the way of heaven? Does it have its own mind and thoughts?"
Lu Cheng pondered for a while and said, "This problem is very complicated. Even if I become a golden immortal, I still can't explain the way of heaven."
Jiang Qiuyun said: "A few years ago, when you were in retreat, Lu Yideng gave a lecture specifically about the evolution of heaven. He said that the early Chinese people were afraid of God and felt that God was moody and that a large number of blood sacrifices were needed to stop disasters.
At the end of the Shang Dynasty, when King Wu was conquering Zhou, in front of the two armies, King Wu of Zhou pointed to the Kuixing in the sky and said: "Destiny is mine!" With a loud shout, the soldiers of the Yin and Shang Dynasties surrendered one after another.
Afterwards, Zhou Gongdan concluded: "The destiny of Heaven is always changing. Heaven abandoned the Shang Dynasty because King Zhou of Shang was tyrannical; Heaven helped Zhou because King Wen of Zhou cared for the people and had merit."
He believed that destiny is polite, integrated virtue into the belief in heaven, and completed the first leap of Chinese culture. The interaction between man and heaven became less bloody and barbaric.
In 770 BC, the Western Zhou Dynasty fell and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty began. People found that the princes who did not follow the rituals became powerful, but were not punished by the destiny of heaven. This raised a question: Why do people still follow the rituals of Zhou and respect the destiny of heaven? Without the external motivation to respect heaven, the foundation of rituals was shaken, and China entered an era of "collapse of rituals and music".
How to save this troubled world?
Fortunately, two great men of thought appeared in China at this time, Confucius and Laozi. They interpreted destiny differently.
Confucius believed that heaven understands human nature and is virtuous. Confucius’s heaven is a conscious and personified heaven.
Laozi's Heaven is different. His Heaven has no consciousness and no personality. The will of God has nothing to do with the will of man. In Laozi's eyes, from the universe to society, there is no personality, no likes and dislikes in the world.
Laozi and Confucius, these are two completely different wisdoms, which later evolved into the Chinese people's unique opposing thinking model. Confucianism is positive, bright, full of sympathy for people, and a world of love and justice; while Taoism, represented by Laozi, is negative, dark, and a world of ruthlessness and righteousness.
Cheng, do you think these two sages, Confucius and Laozi, are immortals from outside the world? Which of their views is right and which is wrong? "
Lu Cheng sighed and said: "I'd better stand by Confucius and be a compassionate and righteous person. It's certain that Taishang Laojun is an immortal who forgets his feelings, but as for the origin of Confucius, I'm not I have traveled all over the world and visited many places. So far, I have not obtained any information about him. It is like he has never appeared in the fairy world."
"Have you found Cangjie, the sage who coined Chinese characters? I feel that Confucius and Cangjie have a certain connection. Historical records record that during the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius often visited the Beihai Library and read the "Cangjie Book", which opened his wisdom. , wrote the "Book of Rites": "The journey of the great road means that the world is for the common good...so that the old will die, the strong will be useful, and the young will grow...this is for great harmony."
"I haven't found Cangjie yet. I don't know where he went." Lu Cheng understood in his heart that the "Great Harmony World" proposed by Confucius is the ideological core of Chinese civilization and a wonderful flower that has bloomed in China. Regardless of whether this person is Immortals and mortals are all characters that cannot be avoided.
