Chapter 572 I didn’t expect it to be three netizens
The Three Emperors let Nuwa into the Fire Cloud Cave and came to a spacious and clean cave in the cave, where they sat around and talked.
Nuwa took a sip of the Penglai fairy tea offered by Shennong, and her irritable mood calmed down a little. Then she told the Three Emperors the whole cause and effect.
"Wen Rui, son of Wen Zhong and fourth generation disciple of Jiejiao?"
Fuxi pondered and exchanged glances with Shennong and Xuanyuan.
"Sister, you are of such status, why bother to argue with Brother Tongtian's grandchildren? We are here to question him, and even if he punishes us, it will be embarrassing if the news gets out."
After carefully considering the words, Fuxi spoke gently to comfort him.
"Yes, if a disciple of Master Tongtian offends you, let alone asking Tongtian for justice, even if a few of us help you capture and punish him, it would be considered equal status."
"Even if the Four Saints came together, they could break the Immortal Execution Sword Formation. But it would be too much of a fuss just to teach our children and grandchildren a lesson..."
Shennong and Xuanyuan also took the opportunity to persuade them.
Nuwa narrowed her eyes, her face turned cold, and her cold gaze wandered back and forth across the faces of the Three Emperors. She seemed to understand something and asked suspiciously, "You already knew about Wen Rui, right?"
The three emperors shifted their gazes and looked in three directions, appearing very guilty.
"Brother, you...you just appeared to be advising me, but in reality you were protecting an outsider, right? Don't you want me to take action to deal with that little evildoer?"
Nuwa's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, and she said angrily and aggrievedly: "That boy has accumulated some merits, but so what? If you don't respect the saint, even if you have great blessings, you are still courting death!"
Fuxi sighed secretly and said, "Wen Rui is indeed a great man of his generation. The mathematics chapter of the Jiejiao scriptures he compiled and circulated in the world can be regarded as the greatest achievement of human wisdom. Among them, mathematical tools and theories such as 'calculus', 'set theory', 'probability' and 'game theory' have brought mathematics into a new era. If the smart people among mortals study and comprehend thoroughly, their spiritual consciousness can surpass their physical cultivation and directly point to the Great Dao, completely changing everything in the Three Realms."
"The mathematics textbooks he compiled are still in the initial stage of dissemination. The number of sentient beings who have mastered them is not too large, and the merits of the Heavenly Dao have not yet been fully rewarded. However, it is foreseeable that this knowledge will be of great benefit to the human race and even sentient beings in the world in the future. Its merits are not inferior to the true scriptures of the Western religions that educate sentient beings."
"Just based on the merits of saving and educating all living beings through the study of mathematics, if this person were to enter the Western religion, he could become a Buddha right away."
At this point, Fuxi took out a small statue of Wen Rui from his arms and said a little embarrassedly: "I occasionally summon the divine avatar of fellow Daoist Wen to discuss some mathematical problems. We have been friends for a long time and have a good chat. If I report him to Master Tongtian and cause him to be punished, it will be difficult for us to meet again if we want to study together in the future."
"Daoyou? You still carry his statue with you?"
Nuwa said in disbelief: "Is this reasonable? How many generations are there between you two? Besides, how can a saint worship gods? Are you converting to Jiejiao?"
"You can't say that. The one who is more accomplished comes first. If we share the same ideals, we can be fellow Taoists..."
Fuxi explained with a bit of embarrassment: "We once studied under Master Hongjun with Brother Tongtian. We are from the same school. Wen Rui is also a junior from the same school as you and me. Why should we care about the status? Belief or not is just a formality. Worshiping his statue to summon his avatar is mainly for convenience, and there is no other meaning."
Nuwa narrowed her eyes and glared at the two saints Shennong and Xuanyuan, who also awkwardly took out the small statue of Wen Rui from their arms.
"The three of us usually talk about scriptures and Taoism together. After so many years, we feel it is too boring. We have discussed everything we need to discuss countless times. We should cherish the opportunity to have another Taoist fellow to exchange knowledge with." Shennong scratched his head and said, "The botany, genetics, biochemistry, pharmacology, and medicine compiled by Taoist fellow Wen are really interesting. When I tasted hundreds of herbs and cultivated crops, I only knew the results but not the reasons. After studying with Taoist fellow Wen's clone, I benefited a lot and had a lot of fun. We regard each other as close friends. The hybrid rice he developed is also a precious seed that benefits the world and feeds hundreds of millions of people. With this one thing, it is also a great merit to become a Buddha on the spot."
Nuwa clenched her fists, looking disappointed, and finally her eyes fell on Xuanyuan: "You don't study, so how can you have a relationship with that little evildoer?"
"I……"
Xuanyuan said ashamedly, "I am indeed not a learned person, but seeing that the two Taoist brothers summoned their avatars every day to talk to each other, and that Wen Rui seemed to know everything, no, he knew everything, and he could explain everything, so I was curious and summoned a statue to ask him how the emperor governs the human race."
"He didn't answer directly, but instead talked to me about 'Das Kapital', 'The Wealth of Nations', 'Finance', 'Law', 'On War', 'Political Economy', 'Journalism', 'Sociology', 'The Art of Slaying Dragons'..."
"After listening to his words, I was enlightened. I realized that I was just fooling around with a bunch of primitive people. The principles of governing a country and its people are too profound and complicated. There is so much to learn."
Nuwa held her forehead with her hand, speechless for a moment, and then said after a while: "So, you are all disciples of Jiejiao now?"
"No, not so much..."
"No no……"
"It's just an exchange, not a formal apprenticeship, so it doesn't count, it doesn't count..."
The three Human Emperors waved their hands guiltily in denial.
"If you won't help me, I'll go by myself!"
Nuwa was furious and refused to give in.
Originally, she herself thought that even if she went there, she might not be able to get rid of the anger in her heart. The famous Tongtian Sect Master, who was known for protecting his own people, would probably lift it up high and then let it go easily, call Wen Rui over to scold him, and ask him to apologize to make them even.
That's why he came to Huoyun Cave and asked the Three Emperors to go together to put some pressure on Master Tongtian. He couldn't just say a few words and leave it at that.
Otherwise, I will never be able to regain my face and I will have no way to vent the anger in my heart.
Now Nuwa was even angrier. The point was no longer that Wen Rui was disrespectful to her. She was angry that her beloved relatives and friends were speaking for outsiders and were not concerned about her extremely aggrieved mood at all!
"Sister, if you think so, then Wen Rui was born too late and didn't catch up with the opportunity to distribute the Hongmeng Purple Qi when Daozu Hongjun preached."
Fuxi tried to comfort Nuwa, who was already on the verge of exploding, with kind words: "If he had caught up, he might have been the Human Emperor or a Saint of Merit now. In the way of cultivation, the one who has achieved success comes first. The fact that he was able to block your great divine power at the Saint level three times shows that his understanding of the laws of yin and yang, space, and life has reached the Saint level."
"Then we shouldn't treat him as an unknown junior. If we treat him as a fellow Taoist of the same level as us, then his so-called 'offense' and 'disrespect' will not count."
"Nonsense!" Nuwa couldn't help herself and flew into a rage, shouting, "I created his race. If I hadn't created humans, he wouldn't have existed! You don't care, but in my opinion, this is a son insulting his mother, it's treason!"
