Chapter 165
Shocking loopholes?
Lin Shu was just thinking that Great Shaman built a perfect and self-consistent world by erasing the negative factors in people's hearts. He was able to justify himself - Xiao Shao said that there was a shocking loophole, which made him have to doubt his brain again. Is the circuit slightly simplified compared to Xiao Shao?
But what can he do?
He can't do anything.
He can only ask: "What loophole?"
"It's a long story." Xiao Shao stroked Zaomu's tabletop with her fingers and tapped it lightly.
At the same time, the rooster in the aunt's yard cried, and the two hens made a cooing sound.
"There are two hens in my mother's house, and she lays eggs every morning. My mother originally picked up the eggs every day and gave them to the two sons at the end of the alley." Xiao Shao said, "Later, when we came, the two eggs every day stopped going. Send it there, but leave it to you to make up."
Lin Shu nodded.
Auntie’s two sons went out to live with her daughter-in-law, but they often came to visit, and the auntie often went there to deliver food and some items-but after the two of them came here, the auntie’s love shifted. A son lost his daily egg supply.
Xiao Shao said, "In the first few days, the two brothers were actually a little unhappy."
Lin Shu tilted his head.
Xiao Shao continued: "Later I saw you through the window...You were still wearing girl's clothes, and there was a disguise. They might see you beautiful, so they won't be jealous of the two eggs anymore."
Lin Shu: "?"
Xiao Shao lightly "coughed": "You are so good-looking after all. They always like to look at you indiscriminately. Later, I was slightly punished and their wives twisted their ears, so they didn't look at you. . Then you changed to menswear and everyone was in peace."
Lin Shu: "..."
It turned out that this kind of thing happened during the time he was blind.
So what is Xiao Shao's intention in saying this?
Xiao Shao seemed to know that he was puzzled, and continued to explain: "Utopia is already a rare quiet and simple place in the world, but the two of them will also drink jealousy because of two eggs."
After a pause, Xiao Shao continued: "The next few days, I looked at the whole village and thought, Utopia has these people, it's enough, not more."
Lin Shu frowned, "Huh?"
Immediately, he reacted, his brows stretched out, and he felt that he understood Xiao Shao's intention: "Yeah."
Xiao Shao looked at him and smiled.
Lin Shu felt that he was being laughed at.
Utopia is surrounded by mountains, surrounded by cliffs, unable to go out, it can be said to be a closed world.
In other words, the area of this piece of land is fixed.
The land area is fixed, and the resources that can be produced are also fixed... But if the village continues to multiply, from the current 200 people, to 400, to 800, or even to two thousand?
What happens to Utopia if the limited land cannot provide enough food? Will there be competition? Will there be turmoil?
——By then, it may not be a Utopia.
Xiao Shao dipped his fingertips in water and drew a circle on the table.
He said: "This is an egg."
Lin Shu felt that Xiao Shao's attitude towards him now seemed to treat a mentally handicapped child in a kindergarten.
But what can he do?
You can only nod like Teacher Xiao like a kindergartener.
Teacher Xiao said: "Assuming it is the favorite of Zhao Ji's neck and Zhao Ya's neck, and this is the only one."
Lin Shu continued nodding.
Zhao Ji Neck and Zhao Ya Neck are the two sons of Utopia.
Xiao Shao continued: "Auntie gives you this thing, Zhao Ji's neck and Zhao Ya's neck will be unhappy."
Lin Shu: "Yeah."
"If you are not a fairy in white, but a boy with ordinary faces, Zhao Ji's neck and Zhao Ya's neck will trouble you. Then the two parties clashed, and even started fighting."
Lin Shu nodded.
Although Xiao Shao’s argument is a bit strange, it still makes sense.
Xiao Shao smiled lightly and drew another fingertip to split the egg in two.
It is not enough to divide into two, continue to divide into two into four, and divide into eight. In the end, the whole egg is terrible, and it becomes a mess of invisible water.
Just listen to Xiao Shao indifferently: "The affairs of the world, wars and disputes, all stem from this."
Lin Shu: "It seems to be."
The territory of the world is limited, but the multiplication of the people has not stopped. No country can give up the desire to open up its territory, just like Zhao Jibo and Zhao Yabo hope to get eggs. Wars started from this, and people's livelihood was suffering, and it also gave rise to it.
Lin Shu said: "So..."
"So the reason Utopia is Utopia is that the villagers can be self-sufficient, and the city...the reason for the permanent peace and tranquility is because of the endless food available outside the city." Xiao Shao said.
Lin Shu nodded.
They have observed the lives of the people in the city.
Water, food, clothing, and houses can all be born out of thin air without being exhausted.
And everyone has the same things, so there is no comparison and no fight.
Every day, there are beautiful girls going to soak up the clear and sweet water from the river and fill the glass cup. Residents in the city drank at will when they were thirsty, closed their eyes when drinking, and smiled intoxicated when they put down the glass cup.
"Because they are not few, they can be equal, because they are all, so the people are happy... The saints'do not worry about being scarce and worry about unevenness', but in fact there will be unevenness if there is a widow. Because of the lack of people, it is difficult to fill in the desire. Zhao Ji's neck and Zhao Ya's neck have a fondness for eggs, so they are jealous of losing eggs." Xiao Shao said lightly.
Lin Shu remembered the happy look of the residents in the city when they were drinking water.
They must like it very much, and Great Shaman did not deprive him of this positive emotion.
But if it is, everyone in the city is thirsty and unbearable, and the river is dry, and there is only a glass of water left in the city?
What will happen to them?
Will it be robbed?
After all... they all like it.
Like it, you will want it.
If you want to get it, you will argue.
Once they scrambled, they all stretched out their hands to fight for the glass of water, there is no doubt that the city will be in chaos.
Then the city at this time was not the city of bliss that the great witch wanted.
Xiao Shao finally said: "He hates the filth of the world, all beings are suffering, but the world... That's it. Joy, anger, sorrow, fear of love and evil desires, seven emotions come together, happiness can produce desire, love can produce evil. When we die, we can always be quiet, but we don’t know that the spring breeze will regenerate and there will never be a clean day."
Xiao Shao explained so much to himself, Lin Shu poured him a glass of water, pushed it over, and then echoed it: "So...the kingdom of bliss of the great witch is actually a castle in the sky. If there is no unlimited supply of resources, it will fall sooner or later. , It has nothing to do with whether he erases people's emotions."
Xiao Shao rubbed his hair: "Smart."
Lin Shu: "But this world was created by the great witch. He wants to have endless resources here, so there will be."
Xiao Shao said, "I don't believe that this world will not consume the great witch himself."
These words made Lin Shu sober.
Da Wu's body is very poor.
According to Xiao Xuan, he will be weak for seven days a month.
Is it just to maintain a world?
If, if this hypothesis is true, the supply of this city seems infinite, but in fact it is limited, depending on the power of the great witch.
Then the country of bliss has an end.
If the country of bliss had an end, then they would be able to return without being trapped here by the Great Witch.
How can we get to the end?
Xiao Shao suddenly poked the black cat in the skull.
The cat was trembling intently, and was poked by him unexpectedly, glaring at him, and even pricked his tail.
"Senior." Xiao Shao was very polite: "Senior, as a land immortal, is there nothing special about Seniors apart from his profound spiritual power?"
The cat's arrogance suddenly weakened, and even its tail drooped.
Xiao Shao was disappointed.
Lin Shu was disappointed.
But Xiao Shao didn't give up: "The array has its eyes, and there should also be a center here. Seniors are much more sensitive than ours. Isn't there any special place in this world?"
The cat got into Lin Shu's arms, neither looking nor listening.
Xiao Shao became cold, and picked up the back of the cat's neck.
"I hold you all the way, the frequency of your trembling is clearly strong and weak." Xiao Shao is indifferent: "Take us to where you fear the most."
The cat made a few weakly, unable, and "meowed" in a compromise.
Xiao Shao put it on the table.
It jumped down and walked out the door.
Lin Shu and Xiao Shao followed.
Although the cat was persuaded, once Xiao Shao became indifferent, his whole body was also very cold, which made the cat succumb.
The cat took them back to the city, walking through the streets, and getting deeper and deeper into the city.
Finally, it stopped step by step, trembling step by step, and stopped in front of a Buddhist temple.
It is not uncommon for Buddhist temples to appear here since ancient times when Buddhists are worshipped in Yunnan.
Xiao Shao softened his attitude, picked up the cat again, and touched it comfortingly.
Maosheng buried his face in his body irreverently.
They walked into this Buddhist temple.
The Buddhist temple is extremely quiet, not even a monk is seen, and the main hall is empty, with only a few pads and mottled Buddha statues.
Mottled.
Lin Shu looked at the four walls, the walls peeled off, and they were old.
This is the only dilapidated place in the whole new and bright city of Bliss.
——The cat did not lead the wrong way.
The big witch meant that they trapped them in the kingdom of bliss and could not come out for eternity, but they didn't know that they also carried a land fairy with them.
Cats often have them, but land gods don't often have them.
Even if it is a great witch, it can't be thought of.
They looked at the tall Buddha statue.
In the dim Buddhist temple, the light from outside penetrated to illuminate the flying dust in the air. The tall Buddha statue stood quietly, leaning forward slightly, looking down at the sentient beings, pushing one palm forward, and palm outward.
The shape of the Buddha statue and the pattern on the Buddha's clothing are very different from those of ordinary Buddhist temples. The most shocking thing is that it has only one eye, located in the middle of the face, looking down slightly, as if overlooking all beings.
Lin Shu: "Past Buddha?"
Xiao Shao stimulated his spiritual power, pushing the Buddha statue slowly with invisible energy, revealing the back.
The back is not the back, but an almost exactly the same Buddha statue, in the same posture, but also an eye, the difference is that this eye looks up slightly.
This is a double-faced Buddha.
The side just now symbolizes the past Buddha.
The present side is called the future Buddha.
The Buddha's incense does not ignite spontaneously, and the faintly scented incense is filled with the entire Daxiong Hall. There is the sound of chanting from nowhere. With this slightly forward Buddha statue, there seems to be a heavy pressure in the air.
They were looking up at the Buddha statue and suddenly heard footsteps behind them.
It's an elderly monk, look at the clothes, and maybe the abbot here.
The abbot was kind and bowed to them: "Donor."
People in Utopia, because there are few negative emotions in their hearts, they are mostly normal.
The negative emotions of monks have never been too many. It can be inferred that the abbot is also quite conscious.
Xiao Shao said: "I have a puzzle."
The abbot smiled and bowed: "Please tell me the donor."
What Lin Shu didn't expect was that Xiao Shao asked that question again.
"Where is the Lord of this country?"
The abbot said: "Everywhere."
Xiao Shao: "One person, everyone?"
Abbot: "It's one person."
Xiao Shao looked straight at the abbot: "Who is the ubiquitous person?"
The abbot twirled the rosary in his hand, his eyebrows were as kind as a bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows: "It's all beings."
The author has something to say:
Cat: Huh.
