Main text Chapter 850: Explaining what people want, the kings ask questions



"The good is greater than the evil, and the crime is not small? How can this be true! What is the truth? How can there be such a saying? Is it possible that in the Hall of the King of Hell, instead of punishing evil and promoting good, it is about praising evil and denouncing good?"

After hearing this unexpected and counterintuitive assertion, Li Kun's arrogance as a human emperor finally came to light. His series of rhetorical questions became louder and louder.

But the black mist man sitting on it was unmoved. Instead, he sneered and asked: "The Palace of the King of Hell? You recognized the wrong place. This is not that kind of place. Moreover, do you think that we are here to praise or criticize?" Good? Then I have to ask you, what is good? "

Li Kun was immediately stopped by the question and couldn't respond for a while.

What is good? What is evil?

He has almost never thought about this question. The reason is very simple. The difference between good and evil lies in the human heart. Everyone has a scale in their heart. It is easy to tell whether something is good or evil at a glance. How to define it specifically and what things are good? , not many people would define what things are evil.

"Can't answer?" At this time, the black mist man still sneered, "Let me tell you, good people are hypocrites, and they are hypocrites by nature. It's you who think you are superior to others who use words, organizations, and habits to Forcibly twisting the nature of living beings and instilling concepts into them, only then can there be good and evil, and the so-called evil is exactly human nature!"

At this point, the man shook his head slowly and lowered his voice slightly: "You want to eat when you are hungry, you want to be warm when you are cold, and you want to rest when you are tired. These are all human nature. Driven by nature, you fight and kill with others. Loving others and being indolent is the righteous path of heaven and earth. Then the strong will be born and the weak will perish. As time goes by, the weak will no longer exist and the stronger will stand out. Humanity will also progress. However, there is a group of people who reverse the trend and distort the righteous path of human beings. , puts all kinds of shackles on people's hearts and eliminates their humanity. Do you think it is a big sin? "

"This..." When he was suddenly asked a question, Li Kun didn't know how to react. He felt in his heart that what the other party said was not unreasonable, but there was always an indescribable feeling of awkwardness.

However, that person obviously didn't intend to give Li Kun a chance to think carefully, as soon as he finished speaking. The following words roared out again: "As for you, the Human Emperor, you are even more sinful. Kingdoms and dynasties are inherently perverse things. They gather wanton individuals together and use laws and etiquette to annihilate human nature, so that people will never be able to return. Freedom can be said to be the greatest evil in the world!”

He paused and said in a deep voice: "How can this person be easily restrained? Human nature is higher than everything else! Chaos is the true meaning of this world! Only then can it last forever!"

These words were spoken clearly and clearly. Li Kun was left speechless.

However, another consciousness in Li Kun's soul discovered something wrong.

"Chaos will last forever? If we take this as the basis and regard it as the right way in the world, then the true nature is indeed right, but anything that distorts the nature is a sinful act, and the basis for judgment is different. Good and evil can also be reversed, but the premise is this statement It’s true!”

After tasting the other party's theory, Qiu Yan immediately discovered the weirdness in it. He condensed it into a little insight and spread it to Li Kun's heart.

The next moment, Li Kun, who seemed clumsy with his words, frowned, pondered for a moment, and realized something, and immediately asked: "If human nature should not be restrained, and any behavior that distorts nature is sinful, then why should we establish Such a palace? You use books to record people's deeds in life, approve good and evil, and let people go to the world to arrest their souls. The process is also a method and it is a manifestation of order. Isn't it contrary to what you said? "

"Huh?" The black mist man asked in confusion, and Li Kun's answer surprised him.

Li Kun continued: "You said that human nature is supreme and nature is respected. That's because you can display your nature and have the power to display your nature. If everyone fights, there will always be casualties. Just as you said, the strong will win and the weak will win. Beng, if you are weak, what's the point of showing your true nature? Besides, why can you judge other people's good and evil deeds? Isn't this just using rules to restrain others and using rewards and punishments to guide others? Hypocrisy? Use people’s laws to guide other people’s thoughts?”

When he spoke, his voice trembled slightly, showing that he was uneasy. But now that the matter was over, he had given up his worries. His long-established view of good and evil was challenged, and he naturally reacted strongly, with a sense of incomprehension. .

If it were anyone else, he might still be concerned about the situation and tolerate it for the time being, but after being the emperor for so long, asking Li Kun to flatter him was something he was determined not to do. It was with this mentality that he dared to act in fear. Sometimes, I still argue with others.

Unexpectedly, the man said matter-of-factly: "The existence of the weak is an obstacle to the progress of humanity. Their demise is also caused by nature. They are the perfect choice of humanity and heaven. If I am a weak person, my death is a contribution to the way of heaven and humanity. What's there to worry about?"

For Li Kun himself, it might take him a while to understand this, and he would have to wait even longer to refute it. But now in his soul, there is another consciousness that provides him with ideas.

"Strength and weakness are not constant, but rely on comparison. What is strong here will be weak elsewhere. If all the weak are destroyed, isn't there only one person in humanity?"

As soon as Li Kun said this, the black mist man stood up from his seat and sighed: "What a good Li Kun, you are an emperor after all, and you still have some knowledge. I underestimated you, but since you don't want to understand what's going on here, The truth is, you can only suffer soberly, and you will not be spared. Let's first experience the pain of mountains of swords and seas of fire, and then see what the great scholars in the world have experienced, and recognize the reality."

As soon as the sound fell, he raised his hand and flicked it, and a little black light flew out and landed on the hands of the two ghost-faced chariots who captured Li Kun. As soon as they caught it, they were shocked at first, and then started laughing ferociously.

"It's really rare. It's such a rare thing to see the emperor of a country wailing in the mountains of swords and seas of fire. We can't miss this." With that said, the two of them handed over to the man on the stage and pulled Li Kun down.

At first, Li Kun could still hold on to some airs, but then when he thought about the encounter, he was still afraid, so he struggled to break away, and there was no way he could escape. Although he was an emperor and had developed an imperial demeanor, he had to have a person after all. Only with the backing of the dynasty can you have the confidence to speak. Once this backing is gone, the confidence will no longer be there, and it will inevitably give people a feeling of bluffing.

At least that's how it seemed to the two ghost men who escorted him.

After the two officers received the order, they pulled Li Kun out of the hall. With a move of their feet, clouds rose up in the mist, and they flew forward with lightning speed. The blood-colored light and shadow all around them changed rapidly, and they did not use shields to protect Li Kun. Let the strong wind blow against his face with the strong smell of blood, making it difficult for Li Kun to breathe.

But the next moment, a soft force spread out from his soul and turned into a barrier, wrapping it up and blocking the strong wind.

"Hey! What's that dragon energy again? It's so boring!" The two ghosts looked unhappy when they saw the barrier. They knew Li Kun's origins well, and they had witnessed the power of dragon energy in the palace just now, so they could do this. They speculated like this, but what the two of them didn't know was that the dragon energy in Li Kun's body had been sealed off after confronting the bloody power. What was revealed now was a bit of dragon energy simulated by Qiu Yan. .

The core of this dragon energy is actually divine power, but mixed with a little bit of humanistic experience and simulating the wishes of the people, it can be confused with the real. At least these two ghosts can't tell the difference.

However, this simulation is very thin, and it is almost impossible to use it against the enemy, but it is no problem to use it to block the wind.

Li Kun also felt something about this, and his panic improved slightly.

At the same time, the violent wind blew on the barrier, and each strand was absorbed into it. The bloody characteristics of the wind were memorized and passed into the spirit body. It mobilized computing power, parsed and analyzed, summarized some insights, and integrated into the inner demon. in the body.

The inner demon body is trying its best to infect and assimilate a little breath from the Shattered Demon. The process was originally slow, but after receiving this insight, it immediately speeded up, and a lot of information flowed out of it!

"Huh?" At this moment, Qiu Yan's understanding of this world suddenly increased, "Blood Hell? One of the ten places? The place where Luan Zun is entrenched? Is this Luan Zun the mastermind behind the scenes? Speaking of which, even if he tries hard The dragon's energy backfired and absorbed the human emperor's soul. It is impossible to deal with it casually. Is there any deep meaning in the torture of mountains of swords and seas of fire? "

………………

"That's it, that's all, just throw it away!"

On the other side, Li Kun failed to make a fool of himself and suffer as he wished. The two ghost-faced guards were also bored. They pressed the cloud head and when the whistling wind went away, there was a kind of wailing coming from below. If you followed the sound, you could see a continuous stream of people. The mountains shimmered with cold light, and there were flames all around the mountains.

The flames are not just one color, some are scarier than blood, reflecting the blood-red earth, and some are faintly blue, silent, but chilling to look at!

"go!"

Before Li Kun could see the scene clearly, the ghosts had already made a move. One of them released the seal, and Li Kun fell down with a cry of surprise!

The next moment, he was submerged in a scarlet flame and landed on a mountain peak filled with cold light.

At the same time, Qiu Yan caught a bit of the distortion of time and space, and suddenly became thoughtful.

………………

A few days later, Donghua flourished.

The news of the emperor's fainting has spread throughout the capital. Even the prime ministers don't know the specific details, and other officials have no way of knowing. But in this way, the information is difficult to communicate, and there is no explanation from the court. It is inevitable that There are rumors flying around, and there is a brewing storm.

Outside the emperor's palace, a lot of chaos happened one after another in the past few days.

"Bold! This is the third time you have blocked my way! Is it possible that His Majesty is ill and that we, the royal family, cannot see him?"

At dawn, several princes and princes headed by King Ding gathered here and glared angrily at the guards who blocked them! (To be continued...)
