Chapter 565: The Evil One is the First to Complain is a Temptation
Nuwa Niangniang raised her chin slightly in a very arrogant manner, crossed her arms and glanced at Wen Rui coldly. Her body movements and expression clearly showed that she did not believe his nonsense.
"Nuwa, it would be fine if you were just an ignorant mortal, but you have personally experienced countless great events in the ancient times, and you can even see the fortune of the dynasty with your holy eyes. How can you be so foolish as to believe in science!"
Wen Rui explained earnestly, "It is clearly stated in the opening inscription of my series of books that everything in the book is based on the assumption that there are no supernatural beings such as gods, Buddhas, ghosts, and demons in the world, and the theory of the fragments of the heavenly way is deduced from this."
"This is a theoretical assumption made to capture fragments of the Heavenly Dao without being disturbed by complex environments. The premise is not based on reality."
"But the reality is that there are extraordinary beings in the world, and there are mysterious causes and effects in the laws of nature."
"The decline of the Zhou dynasty was due to many reasons, including the Five Virtues, the cycle of cause and effect, the accumulation of karma, bad luck, etc. How can you just blame me for putting radioactive poison on their ancestors?"
"If the little bit of radioactive dust I released can destroy a dynasty, then is there still justice? What morality does the king still need to abide by, what heaven and earth do they need to worship, and what precautions should be taken to prevent poisoning, and to ensure long-term peace and stability for generations to come?"
You know what, you have to say, Wen Rui's nonsense actually convinced Nuwa, and the suspicious look she gave Wen Rui gradually became less sharp.
"That makes some sense... In your crappy book, you wrote that humans evolved from monkeys, and that the ancient flood was caused by the melting of glaciers. It was so convincing that if I hadn't experienced it myself, I would have believed it. It turns out that you made the assumption at the beginning that ancient gods like us would not exist."
Nuwa frowned and recalled. With her extraordinary wisdom, she immediately recalled that the series of books had indeed written in the beginning: "Before reading this book, you must first imagine a pure natural world without immortals, gods, saints, ghosts, demons, or monsters. This series of books only explores the pure natural laws that are not interfered with by supernatural forces."
When she read about the theory of evolution and the ancient flood hypothesis, she was nearly pissed to death on the spot. She wanted to go to heaven and hunt down the little emperor Jie Tian who dared to spread rumors about the saint, and give him a good beating in front of all the immortals.
So that this guy would know that Nuwa can not only create humans and repair the sky, but is also quite good at fighting!
Now thinking back to the book, it assumes that I do not exist and draws a series of conclusions through deduction. It is really very reasonable and logically self-consistent. There is something to it.
If she had not created humans back then, perhaps the monkeys would have really evolved little by little over time and eventually become humans.
Isn’t this how many monsters transform into humans?
However, it takes practice for monsters to transform, and the demonic energy and spiritual energy accelerate the process of change. Monkeys are close to humans, and over time, from generation to generation, they gradually complete the process of monster transformation.
"Well, even if your poisoning was not the main cause of the Zhou Dynasty's decline, it still caused a lot of harm!"
Nuwa turned around, walked lightly to the altar and sat down gracefully. The moment she sat down, a lotus rose from the ground and automatically grew into a natural flower chair.
During the whole process, not a single bit of Nuwa's magical power flowed from her body. Wen Rui could see clearly that the lotus chair was grown naturally.
Virtuous saints are truly loved by everyone and flowers bloom when they see them. All things in heaven and earth are willing to serve them and offer them the best.
Wen Rui's heart was finally at ease. The accusation of Nuwa was not impossible. He himself could not figure out whether it was the evil karma of giving King Wu radioactive toxins. There were examples of the genetic degeneration of heirs of feudal dynasties in the real world.
If we don't respect science and don't do a good job in eugenics, we will really produce a large number of incompetent rulers.
For example, the hemophilia that plagued European royal families for hundreds of years and the so-called eternal dynasty but with serious inbreeding that led to the mentally retarded becoming kings.
After King Wu died, "the whole world was in turmoil upon hearing of King Wu's death." Duke Zhou assisted King Cheng and King Kang, and the government of the Western Zhou Dynasty was revitalized. But during the reign of the fifth king, King Mu of Zhou, he began to imitate King Zhou in favoring beauties and squandering national strength. During the reign of the tenth king, King Li of Zhou, he even learned King Zhou's tyranny, which caused riots among the people.
The current King You of Zhou is the twelfth generation, and his ability is the worst among all the previous generations. He seems to be mentally unstable. He has not inherited any of his ancestors' strengths, but has all of their weaknesses.
Duke Zhou was not as capable as King Wu, yet he was able to govern the country in an orderly manner. However, King Wu's descendants showed strange behavior every few generations. It is very likely that their genes were affected by radiation and mutated fragments occurred, which laid a landmine.
Fortunately, after all, Nuwa was a native of the ancient gods. She grew up under the influence of metaphysics and has lived like this for hundreds of thousands of years. The new knowledge compiled by Wen Rui could not shake her three views.
Wen Rui stepped forward with an apologetic smile and said confidently, "On the battlefield, killing is done with all possible means. I killed Ji Fa to show my loyalty to my country and my filial piety to my father. It is truly a combination of loyalty and filial piety. The only mistake is that history is written by the victors."
Nuwa glared at Wen Rui and said, "You aided and abetted Zhou's evil deeds, and you are not ashamed of it, but proud of it?"
"What can I do? I was a business minister, the son of the Grand Master, and a disciple of Jiejiao. King Wu Jifa is the leader of the traitors, so it is only natural for me to kill him."
Wen Rui spread his hands and said, "I am not like you who have a pair of divine eyes that can see the weather. How can I know that the fate of the Shang Dynasty has come to an end? I am still planning to follow the example of Yi Yin, the wise minister of the Shang Dynasty, who killed the evil concubine Daji, deposed the unjust tyrant Emperor Xin, and helped the crown prince Yin Jiao to succeed to the throne, and asked the heaven to borrow another 500 years to continue the fate of the Shang Dynasty."
"Yin Hong and Yin Jiao are both wise men. With my assistance, we may be able to eliminate the accumulated problems and realize the rejuvenation of the country. Even before Emperor Xin married the evil concubine Daji, he was still quite good. Under my father's assistance, he made great achievements in both civil and military affairs."
This time it was Nuwa's turn to have her eyes flickering. She said impatiently, "Emperor Xin was a tyrant and a tyrant. He was arrogant and rude. He deserves this bad retribution. Don't mention him again! You came to me for anything else besides giving me gifts? If you have nothing else, leave now!"
Wen Rui straightened his appearance, bowed his hands and said: "Your Highness, I was inspecting the human world recently and accidentally discovered a conspiracy against the human race. It concerns the safety and survival of the entire human race, so I hurried here to report the news to your Highness."
At this time, a fairy in green came into the hall carrying a fruit plate with washed and cut peaches on it.
Nuwa's attention was not at all on the conspiracy that Wen Rui mentioned that harmed the human race. Instead, she was more interested in the peaches with a strong peach fragrance that had been genetically modified by Wen Rui.
The cut peaches flew into Nuwa's mouth. She chewed them carefully, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she couldn't help but praise, "I've never eaten peaches this delicious at the Peach Banquet. I've mentioned this to the Queen Mother long ago. Why do we have to cultivate peaches to prolong life? Who of the immortals who are eligible to eat peaches lacks longevity? Who needs to eat peaches to prolong life? The five declining celestial beings who are about to die are not eligible to attend the banquet. It's better to cultivate them to be more delicious, like peaches like this."
After tasting the peaches, Nuwa glanced over with a cold gaze and said, "You are the first person since the beginning of the world to use fake peaches as a gift to scare the saint. Since they are delicious, I will not bother with you. What did you say just now?"
