Chapter 20 The King of Qin and Others Are Shocked
King Qin Yingji and others were shocked.
Speculation or seeing it with your own eyes?
If you saw it with your own eyes...
Both the Qin people and Li Si and others felt their scalps tingling.
At this point, Xunzi couldn't help but ask, "Why does it rain?"
When this topic came up, King Yingji of Qin and others were also very curious.
Needless to say, this is also the question they want to ask, curious about whether there is a god in the sky who controls the clouds and rain.
However, the next second, they heard an unexpected answer again.
Su Xing said directly, "Water evaporates into gas, rises to the sky to form clouds, accumulates and condenses and falls to form rain."
After these words were spoken, King Qin Yingji and others were stunned, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
When they first heard it, they thought it was ridiculous, but after thinking about it carefully, they actually felt that it made sense and even thought that it was true.
They had certainly seen water vapor, and they had also seen it drifting upwards...
The Taoists, Yin-Yangists and other people from the Hundred Schools of Thought present thought about it and found it made more and more sense. Sometimes they showed a look of sudden enlightenment and sometimes they looked infatuated.
If you have heard the truth, you can die at night!
As I thought about it, looking at the children in the morning light, their eyes were different.
Bai Qi, who was in the crowd, had his eyes as big as bells. He swallowed subconsciously and felt a chill coming from all around him.
Even though he massacred more than 400,000 people from the State of Zhao, he was not afraid. He never believed in ghosts and gods, but at this moment, he was shaken and felt awe.
In response to Xunzi's question, normal Qin people would only answer that there were gods in the sky who were making rain. Only this existence that seemed to be a god in the sky could describe the rainfall process in such a simple and easy-to-understand way that seemed like the truth.
It seems that nothing supernatural happened in the process, but it is precisely because of this that it is even more terrifying when one thinks about it carefully. One cannot think about it too much!
How does this little god know the rainfall process so clearly?
Bai Qi shook his head, not daring to think any further.
In the attic, Guiguzi's eyes were full of amazement and obsession.
As a smart man, he thought about what the little god said casually in his mind.
I have a good understanding of the rainfall cycle.
"A saint?"
"God?"
Guiguzi murmured.
At some point, the scene became somewhat quiet.
Xunzi was shocked for a while, thought about it, and asked curiously, "What is outside the heaven and earth like? Is it the residence of the gods?"
As soon as this question was asked, King Qin and others immediately became excited.
That’s what they want to know too!
At this moment, their minds subconsciously imagined scenes beyond the sky and the residence of the gods.
Likewise, they were also looking forward to it and were curious about what the little god had said about the outer space scenes and the god's residence.
However, just as they were thinking this, Su Xing said calmly, "No, outside the heaven and earth, it is vast and dark, it is the starry universe."
"Every star in the sky is the same or different from the stars here."
"The planet we are on is just a drop in the ocean, as insignificant as a speck of sand."
After he finished speaking, Xunzi was stunned, and a dazed look appeared on his face.
This answer was beyond his expectations, and it was even an answer he could not imagine.
Just imagining the scene described by the little god in front of him, he felt a chill down his spine.
If this is true, then aren't they insignificant and not worth mentioning?
Including the heaven and earth, they are all insignificant and not worth mentioning?
While Xunzi was stunned, King Yingji of Qin and others were stunned and shocked when they heard the answer.
Su Xing's answer also exceeded their imagination and made them unbelievable.
In fact, not only them, but also people in later generations could not believe it...
[Records of the Grand Historian: Annals of Qin Shi Huangdi records…]
[In the fifty-third year of King Ji of Qin, Xunzi asked three questions about the son of King Zhuangxiang of Qin, the god Taiyi.]
[Xunzi once said: What is the appearance of heaven and earth?] [Taiyi, the son of King Zhuangxiang of Qin, the god of heaven, said: We are all on the sphere, the atmosphere touches the sky, and wraps the sphere.]
【Xunzi 2: Why does it rain?】
[The god Taiyi said: When water evaporates, it becomes gas, which rises to the sky and becomes clouds. When it condenses and falls, it becomes rain.]
【Xunzi's third question: What is outside the heaven and earth? Is it where the gods live?】
[God Taiyi said: No, the sky is boundless, it is the sea of stars in the universe...]
The three questions and three answers between Xunzi and the god Taiyi not only puzzled Sima Qian of later generations, but also puzzled other people in later generations.
Until modern times...
At this moment, when everyone was in disbelief, a group of people were the first to believe it.
"Buddha, you still say you are not Sakyamuni Buddha!"
Salman and other monks looked fanatical.
Only those who possess the divine eye and Buddha eye recorded in Buddhist scriptures can see and know so many things!
Salman and other monks were certain that this person was definitely the World Honored One, Sakyamuni Buddha!
Thinking about this, Salman even took out a piece of paper and wrote clearly in ancient Sanskrit according to his own understanding.
"A good man asked the Buddha: What is outside of heaven and earth?"
"The Buddha said: Outside the heaven and earth there are worlds as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges..."
Just as he was devoutly recording what the Buddha had said and other monks were also recording, people nearby also noticed their actions.
"Ok?"
All eyes were focused on these hundreds of foreign monks; even Xunzi, King Qin and others couldn't help but look over there.
"What are you monks doing?"
In response to their question, the monk Salman smiled and said, "What the Buddha said is naturally true."
He explained devoutly, "The Buddha has the ability to know past lives and past deeds. He can know the past lives and deeds of himself and all sentient beings for hundreds and thousands of lifetimes. He can know everything in the past and the future."
"The Buddha also has divine vision, which enables him to see all objects, near and far, coarse and fine, without any obstruction."
"The scenes of heaven and earth, and the scenes beyond heaven and earth, are naturally no secret to the great Buddha!"
"What the Buddha said is naturally true!"
Listening to the words of the monk Salman, King Yingji of Qin and others were stunned and felt it was absurd. Many Qin people thought that these monks were crazy and mentally ill.
However, just as they were thinking this, Ying Zichu and Lu Buwei in the crowd looked at each other, with shock flashing in their eyes.
Ying Zichu muttered to himself, "The ability to know one's own fate and the fate of all living beings for hundreds and thousands of lifetimes, and to know everything in the past and the future?"
"My son once said that I could become the King of Qin in a few years..."
Before, he didn't believe it.
After all, the one sitting on the throne of Qin now is his grandfather.
He had a father who was Lord An Guojun and more than twenty brothers. How could he become the King of Qin?
How could he become the King of Qin in just a few years?
But now, after Salman's reminder and the mention of the matter of fate, the two of them were terrified and began to imagine.
It is very likely that Taiyi really has the ability to know his own fate and the deeds of all living beings over hundreds and thousands of lifetimes, as well as everything in the past and future!
What he said is true!
At this time, Lü Buwei looked dazed and muttered to himself, "No wonder..."
No wonder this prince could call out his name and deeds when he saw him for the first time!
So, that's actually the case?
It actually possesses such incredible power?
In fact, from what this monk Salman said, he has more than one kind of divine power, and he also has other incredible divine powers? !
Lu Buwei was shocked.
Ying Zichu was also shocked.
