Indeed, there is no such thing as the universe in the witch's cognition.
Wus generally believe that the entire space we are in, regardless of the mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars, are all creations of Pangu. The only difference is that the mountains, rivers and rivers are transformed by the body of Pangu, and all other things except the sun and moon are created by Pangu.
The stars in the sky were created by the great god Pangu and transformed into four holy beasts like the candle dragon.
If this statement is true, then it is very likely that what exists in people's cognition is not the observable universe at all, but the new space opened up by the breath of the four holy beasts gradually spreading outward.
Rather than saying that the Dayan Point Star Array is borrowing star power, it is better to say that it is borrowing the power of the Four Sacred Beasts to show such formidable power.
This speculation beyond my previous knowledge made me confused.
But Poseidon had no time to pay attention to me at the moment. He finally responded to Zhulong's words: "I have known you for hundreds of thousands of years. This is the first time you have told me about your true origin. Why?"
"It's nothing, I just want to tell you that there is no point in escaping blindly."
Zhulong stretched out his hand, and a light yellow, eggshell-like shadow appeared in his palm: "I consider myself a witness of Pangea. During this long period of time, I have witnessed the rise and fall of countless races and civilizations.
perish.
Some of them are stronger than witches, and some have wisdom several times higher than that of humans. However, none of them have been recognized by Heaven. Without exception, they have entered the vicious circle of self-destruction, and then been shuffled and cleaned up by Heaven.
, disappeared in the long river of time."
As Zhulong said, the light yellow oval in his hand was also constantly changing.
Time seemed to be magnified countless times. I saw the two clear and turbid qi separate at a speed visible to the naked eye. I saw mountains and rivers rising from the ground. I saw water-based spiritual energy gathering together and turning into water droplets. More and more water droplets fell.
It becomes a stream on the ground, and countless streams converge into rivers, which in turn form lakes, rivers and seas.
The next moment, the water vapor transpired and turned into clouds, and the clouds turned into rain to water the dry earth. The nourished wood-attribute aura turned into plants and broke out of the ground, and the whole earth became more and more energetic.
After an unknown amount of time, the majestic vitality contained in the earth began to give birth to mythical beasts. They were born with the instinct to mobilize the power of nature, turning their hands into clouds and turning their hands into rain.
And those remaining vitality gave birth to countless microorganisms. Microorganisms experienced a long evolution and growth, gradually walking from the ocean to land, and then from crawling to standing upright. They became sane, learned to communicate, and finally evolved into today's human society.
appearance.
It was at this time that the dispute began.
"Once life has wisdom, it will inevitably have desires."
Zhulong stared intently at the miniature blue planet in his hand, just like an artist staring at a great work: "Reproduction is the instinct of living things. In order to pass on life, all living creatures want a more comfortable environment and more
More food, clearer water sources, and wider hunting grounds.
But if you want to get these, you will inevitably squeeze the living space of other living beings. When the space of other living beings is squeezed out and completely extinct, intelligent life will turn to its own kind and fall into endless guilt.
Fight until the entire race is extinct."
As Zhulong spoke, the picture of the planet in his hand also changed.
Because of the excessive demands of the creatures, the originally vibrant planet began to become desolate, food became increasingly scarce, and creatures became extinct in large numbers. Soon, because no food could be found anymore, as the last intelligent creature died, this The world has successfully completed a reincarnation.
After an unknown number of years, Pangea regained its vitality again, and countless creatures were conceived, and once again experienced a long process of evolution and growth.
It’s just that even if one of their races has developed sanity and wisdom, there is no way to know that other intelligent creatures have existed in this world, let alone learn from their demise.
"Actually, I really want to change this situation. I even personally came forward a few times to tell these creatures that there is no need to fight or rob. The resources on Pangea are enough to support their survival."
Having said this, Zhulong sighed: "It's a pity that I fail every time, because no matter how hard I try, I can't suppress their increasingly powerful desires.
Moreover, Heaven has not given me the right to directly interfere with this world, and at the beginning of each transition between the old and the new, those powerful individuals created by Heaven are not enough to suppress those intelligent creatures, just like Yu, who almost died tens of thousands of years ago. Did he die at the hands of the Gonggong clan of your Wu clan?
Once desires are out of bounds, I can only watch them go to destruction countless times, over and over again, with no end."
No one said anything.
I saw with my peripheral vision that even Poseidon looked thoughtful, sitting there quietly, waiting for Zhulong to continue speaking.
"Gu Yan, in fact, over the years, you witches are the closest to success as a tribe. You are strong and wise. You have a clear division of labor within the tribe. You don't fight, rob or fight. Although you are cruel, you just guard your own. Three acres of land dominates and brings blessings.
Zhulong sighed softly: "Thousands of years ago, Heaven separated those saints from itself, nominally to help mankind resist your oppression, because your exploitation and oppression of mankind have gone too far.
But if you ask me, what's wrong with the big bullying the small? The law of the jungle is the basic law of nature. Even the law of heaven can't accuse you of anything. This is just an excuse.
It's a pity, it's a pity, it's just one step away. You shouldn't, you shouldn't, the last thing you should do is to observe the stars, deduce star maps, and try to understand the nature of this world. This is the fundamental reason for the demise of witchcraft."
Zhulong's outstretched palm clenched tightly, and the blue planet disappeared.
Instead of looking at Poseidon, he turned around to face me: "Go ahead, take those two little kids with you, and let Heili take you back to Xing'anling for the New Year. It's still too late to set off now for the New Year's Eve dinner. .”
"Huh? You're going to drive me away just in the middle of what I'm saying?"
Zhulong's sudden words made me stunned: "Besides, you won't go back with us?"
"Well, I'll stay a little longer. I have to go back to Hades when things here are over. Tomorrow morning the King of Hell of the Tenth Palace will send people to my place to pay New Year's greetings. I have to rush back to receive them."
Zhulong then told Heili: "Send Gu Yan and the others home safely, and give Duan Tian a message by the way. Just tell him what I ordered him not to go anywhere in the near future. I will go after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year." Find him in Xing'an Mountains."
"clear."
Heili, who had been lying on my shoulder, jumped down: "Gu Yan, let's go?"
