Text Chapter 1300 Shine Brightly!
still have a question.
If Li Linghai was an ordinary aristocrat in the True Human Empire, perhaps one day Li Yao would be able to go to the mainland of the Empire and try to find her.
But she is the Crown Princess of the Real Human Empire!
Li Yao went to the mainland of the Real Human Empire. I didn't know it was a matter of the Year of the Monkey. When he really got there, he would most likely be the Queen of the Empire!
So, how on earth should Li Yao break into the capital of the empire, the Jitian Realm, and the palace of Tianjixing, to find the emperor's wife to reminisce about the old days?
That picture was so beautiful that Li Yao shuddered coldly.
When he was upset, Gui Shishou, the old tortoise, reappeared out of nowhere, and cheerfully said, "Young friend Li Yao seems to be full of worries, but I don't know why?"
Li Yao frowned, and said calmly, "I have a lot of troubles, but they can't be solved by old age."
Gui Shishou blinked Mung Dou's small eyes: "Why is this? I am old and not talented, after all, I am a few years older than my little friend. I have some life experience, which can be used to communicate and discuss with my little friend. Maybe it can relieve my heart. the confusion!"
Li Yaodao: "Isn't this obvious? Gui Lao is an 'absolute defeatist' and believes that the destruction of our civilization is inevitable! Since this is the case, in Gui Lao's eyes, all the struggles and efforts we are doing now are futile. I am troubled What's the use of telling you?"
"It seems that little friend Li Yao has misunderstood 'absolute defeatism'!"
Gui Shou's temper is very good. Hearing Li Yao's blunt criticism, he didn't change his face. He smiled and said, "Ask Li Yao, friend, do you believe that people are destined to die?"
What kind of problem is this?
Li Yao was stunned, and blurted out: "Of course, birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of nature. I'm not the kind of guy who blindly pursues immortality!"
Gui Shishou sighed and said, "No matter how brilliant, brilliant, and great life is, it will inevitably turn into a pile of dry bones and a handful of loess in the end, and after thousands of years, it will disappear and be completely annihilated, right?"
Li Yao nodded, disapprovingly said: "As long as it once shone brightly, that's enough, even if it really disappears, so what?"
"So, little friend Li Yao can also be called an 'absolute deathist'."
Gui Shou said calmly, "Do you believe that no matter how hard you struggle, death is inevitable?"
Li Yao was momentarily at a loss for words.
"Since the news from little friend Li Yao, the living are doomed to die, and even you are doomed, so why are you struggling so hard now?"
Gui Shishou said seriously, "For an 'absolute deathist' like you, is the short life before death meaningful?"
"certainly!"
Li Yao felt that his messy mind was poured with hot oil again, and it was completely boiled, "Isn't this nonsense? Could it be that we will not live well just because we are going to die sooner or later?"
"now it's right."
Gui Shishou smiled lightly, "Now, little friend Li Yao should be able to understand a little bit the essence of 'absolute defeatism', right?"
"You believe that people are destined to die, but you don't deny the value of all hard work while you're alive, do you?"
"On the contrary, perhaps it is precisely because of the existence of death that the so-called 'living' is full of precious meaning!"
"If there really is 'eternal life', what the immortals do will really lose all meaning!"
"It's like a race. The race is meaningful only if there is an end point. If there is no end point and you want to run forever, who has the motivation to run?"
"In the same way, I believe that human civilization is destined to be destroyed, but I have not denied the value of the existence of human civilization because of this, nor have I denied the value of all efforts made by everyone, including you, in trying to save this civilization! "
"Because I firmly believe that our civilization is mortal, I can get a more mysterious perspective to look at our civilization, every bit of it, and record every shining point, condensing it into a great tombstone of our civilization !"
"This is the essence of the thought of the 'Tombstone School', does little friend Li Yao understand?"
Li Yao's eyelids blinked faster than a butterfly flapping its wings: "...a little understanding."
"Then, is little friend Li Yao willing to open up and share your confusion with this old man?"
Gui Shishou asked very kindly.
Li Yao scratched his head for a long time, wondering why all these bad old men are hiding their secrets, and they can make people dizzy with just a few words?
After thinking for a while, Li Yao said, "Guilao, there is a problem that has troubled me for several days. It's actually not a problem, but a big problem!"
Gui Shishou pointed to the uneven ground: "I would like to hear the details."
Li Yao didn't care whether the ground was clean or not, he patted his buttocks, and sat on the ground with Gui Shishou, talking.
"Before the true human empire and the covenant alliance have not revealed the full picture, I am still very firm in my philosophy."
Li Yao said honestly, "However, after coming to Kunlun, I have contacted the cultivators and members of the Holy League successively, and learned some of their ideas from different angles, especially the origin of the cultivators, and have a fairly clear understanding After that, I was a little confused."
"My Dao heart is very strong, and of course I am not shaken by the core concept of 'protecting ordinary people'."
"It's just that the 'history of the decline and fall of the cultivation civilization' explained to me by the cultivators seems quite reasonable. In the process of the development of the cultivation civilization, some internal contradictions are indeed difficult to resolve!"
"Panlong civilization, Yacha civilization, Wuying civilization... There are dozens of different cultivation civilizations, all of which have declined due to various reasons. The 'disease' that caused their decline may not be absent in our Xingyao Federation. Woolen cloth!"
"The so-called 'Avenue of Immortal Cultivation' is of course not a way to completely cure the disease. It is just a 'medicine for tigers and wolves'. After the effect has passed, it will intensify and completely kill people!"
"However, our 'Avenue of Comprehension' seems to be difficult to completely solve the problem and create a perfect world!"
"a perfect world?"
Gui Shishou couldn't help laughing, "Young friend Li Yao, you're a little bit possessed. How can there be such a 'perfect world' in this world?"
"The word "civilization" is too vast and complicated. It's difficult to distinguish it for a while, so let's talk about it as a human being."
"In life, even if you are born into a wealthy family, well-clothed and well-fed, well-maintained, and strive to be strong, how can there be no tribulations, six misfortunes, or any troubles?"
"Who is an ordinary person in the world of mortals who can be completely free from disease and trouble? Only the dead in the grave!"
Li Yao's heart moved, and he asked, "What should I do if I have troubles?"
"Cold salad!"
Gui Shishou said carelessly, "Soldiers come to block you, water comes to cover you, if you are sick, you will be cured, if you have troubles, you will solve them, if you can't solve them, you will drink away your sorrows, and cry a lot... No matter whether you are a prince or a noble, or a scumbag in the market, who is not? Did you stumble all the way here?"
Li Yao frowned and said, "There are always some troubles that cannot be solved, and there are always some diseases that cannot be cured!"
"Then die."
Gui Shishou's mung bean eyes radiated an incomparably clear light, "Let me ask you a question, little friend Li Yao, do you think a doctor who has killed more than a dozen patients is considered a quack doctor who kills people?" 'Woolen cloth?"
Li Yao pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It depends on the situation. Doctors are not gods. There are always terminal illnesses that cannot be cured."
"That's right."
Gui Shishou looked at the lavender clouds not far away, and said leisurely, "Since you also know that doctors are not gods, there are always some diseases that cannot be cured, even if the patient really dies, it may not be the doctor's responsibility."
"Then, you cultivators are not immortals. Why do you think that the destruction of these civilizations, such as the Panlong Realm, the Yaocha Realm, and the Wuying Realm, must be caused by the 'Avenue of Comprehension'?"
"You also said that birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws of nature. People will die, the sea will dry up, and all substances will decay. Even the burning sun will go out one day. How can a civilization not get sick or die?"
"When civilization is sick, find a way to treat it. If this prescription doesn't work, then replace it with another one. After trying all the prescriptions, if it still doesn't work, then find a way to leave future generations and die with dignity. This is what our 'Tombstone School' says. worldview."
Li Yao's expression seemed to fall into a deep valley.
Suddenly I was extremely confused, suddenly realized, and suddenly my face was empty, and I didn't know where my thoughts were drifting.
"It's reasonable to return to the old saying, I seem to be looking for trouble!"
After thinking to the end, Li Yao finally murmured.
"Exactly."
Gui Shishou nodded with a smile, "Since little friend Li Yao believes that the most important thing for a person to live is not how healthy he is and how long his lifespan is, but how bright and shining light he can release. So, why not?"
"As long as human civilization can use the stars and the sea as a curtain to leave a strong and colorful stroke, even if it really comes to an end one day, what is there to regret?"
"At the very least, our 'Tombstone School' will do our best to record this rich and colorful and unparalleled stroke completely, as our 'descendants' and 'legacy', and spread it beyond endless light-years and endless years After that!"
Li Yao squinted his eyes, looking at the clouds in the sky that were churning like stormy waves.
But the line of sight seems to have penetrated the clouds and shot into the depths of the endless sea of stars.
His heart was ups and downs, his breathing was short, his eyes were piercing, and all the troubles that had been entangled in his heart for many days were swept away.
He couldn't wait to leave his indelible mark on this "big screen"! (To be continued.) 8
