Pingyang Town, an ordinary border town.
On this day, a group of strange people came to the town.
The clothes of these people are very different from the ordinary people in the town.
Some don't even look like a person, with sharp mouths and monkey cheeks, and tiger heads and tiger brains.
Some have extraordinary popularity and majestic looks.
Some people are free and unrestrained.
The origins of this group of people are mysterious and their identities are unknown. However, they have no ill intentions towards Pingyang Town and have never disturbed the people in the town.
As time goes by, everyone in Pingyang Town has gradually become accustomed to the existence of these people, and they will say hello when they meet occasionally.
Among them, there was also a Taoist priest who was good at telling stories. He set up a table in the town, held a folding fan in his hand, and kept telling stories.
This Taoist priest was eloquent and had a lotus-like tongue. In addition, the stories he told were all about the wonderful world that no one in Pingyang Town had heard of. They were so magnificent that he soon attracted a group of people to sit around and listen to the book.
In this storyteller’s story, there are people who can fly with swords, others who can soar through the clouds and ride in the mist, and there are also people with great supernatural powers who can even burn the sky and boil the sea, and grow lotuses at every step!
Everyone didn't know the origin of his name, and their inquiries were fruitless, so they all called him Storyteller.
This Taoist priest would tell stories in the town every day.
At this time, everyone in the town who is free, whether adults or children, will come over to listen.
Spring came and autumn passed, and before I knew it, this Taoist priest had been storytelling in Pingyang Town for more than five years.
On this day, a large group of people in Pingyang Town rushed in one direction.
Without asking any further questions, I knew that the Taoist priest had started telling stories again.
On this day, especially many people came to listen to the book.
Because the story told by this Taoist priest is coming to an end.
"Snapped!"
In the middle of everyone sitting around, I saw the Taoist priest put down the awakening tree, opened the folding fan, and said: "The Holy King of Reincarnation destroyed three thousand worlds, everything in the heaven and earth, and all races and sentient beings, all turned into nothingness!"
"This Holy King of Reincarnation is so evil!"
One child said angrily.
Another person also said: "Three thousand worlds were just destroyed by him."
"What happened next? Did the Huangwu Saint King die too? Where is the Blood Butterfly Saint?"
Some people couldn't help but ask.
The Taoist priest took a long sip of tea to whet his appetite, and then said slowly: "Later, this Huangwu Saint King detonated the Taishi Universe, and in the dark and lonely universe, he deduced alone, and finally evolved into the more ancient Taichu Universe! "
"And this primordial universe swallowed up and accommodated all the three thousand destroyed worlds, making it even more vast and vast."
One person sighed: "But what's the use? In this primordial universe, there is only one person left, the Holy King Huangwu, and all his old friends have passed away. How cruel must it be to him?"
Everyone nodded.
The Taoist priest shook his head and said: "Actually, after the Holy King of Samsara destroyed the three thousand worlds, perhaps his conscience discovered that he did not destroy the Book of the Earth, but left all the souls in the Book of the Earth over the years to The Holy King of Desolate Martial Arts.”
"this… "
Everyone looked stunned and surprised.
The Taoist priest said: "So, with the souls of the billions of creatures in the Three Thousand Worlds, the Desolate Martial Saint King has resurrected all the original sentient beings in the Three Thousand Worlds, including the old friends of the Desolate Martial Saint King."
"But how to resolve the immeasurable calamity of all sentient beings?"
one person suddenly asked.
The Taoist priest smiled and said: "As the creator of the primordial universe, Holy King Huangwu can naturally re-establish rules and regulations in this new world. The source of countless tribulations for all living beings lies in the selfishness, selfish thoughts, and selfish desires of the immortals."
"Therefore, the most important law established by the Huangwu Saint King is that once a living being becomes a saint, it will lose its self-consciousness and turn into a great way."
"If you want eternal life, you must give up all emotions."
"In this way, the existence of all sentient beings for countless kalpas will be cut off at the root."
One person asked: "What about the Holy King of Desolate Martial Arts? He has become the most powerful existence in the universe in the beginning. Will he lose himself one day and become the second Holy King of Samsara?"
"How can it be!"
Another person immediately refuted: "The Wild Martial Saint King cares about the common people, founded martial arts, and has such courage and ambition. How can he become the Holy King of Samsara?"
"That's not necessarily the case."
At first the man said: "Didn't the Holy King of Samsara want to establish a fair world at the beginning? He wanted to create six paths of reincarnation to reward good and punish evil?"
When the matter was mentioned, the Taoist priest fell silent.
After a moment, the Taoist priest slowly said: "The Holy King Huang Wu created the universe in the beginning, reopened the prehistoric world, established the six paths, and evolved all living things. Finally, he cut off his self-consciousness, cut off the seven emotions and six desires, and transformed into the way of heaven to guard this new world. world."
"ah!"
Everyone was shocked and exclaimed.
Without self-awareness and the seven emotions and six desires, it means that the Huangwu Holy King is no longer the Huangwu Holy King.
The worry that the man had just now no longer existed.
Under a heaven without self-awareness and selfish thoughts, the three thousand avenues each perform their duties, and all living beings are equal.
…
In a house in Pingyang Town.
Su Zimo woke up leisurely, stood up from the bed, and sat there for a long time. The confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, and he regained clarity.
But he still didn't get up, he didn't know what he thought of, and he was a little lost.
After a while, he stood up and pushed the door open.
In the courtyard, under the peach tree, a beautiful woman wearing a bloody robe was standing there. She looked back, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Are you awake?"
"Um."
Su Zimo nodded.
"You were the last one to wake up among our group."
Dieyue smiled.
Su Zimo listened to the faint noise coming from the distance in the town and asked, "What's going on outside?"
Dieyue said with a smile: "Lin Xuanji is telling stories over there. Now we are talking about the critical moment. The Holy King of Samsara destroyed three thousand worlds, which probably attracted everyone's rebuke."
"The Holy King of Reincarnation..."
Su Zimo opened his mouth slightly, but stopped talking.
"What's wrong?"
Dieyue asked softly when she saw Su Zimo walking out of the room, seemingly worried.
Su Zimo said: "There is a possibility that the Holy King of Reincarnation destroyed the Three Thousand Worlds in order to avenge the Holy King of Life. In addition, he originally had a death wish, and after the death of the Holy King of Life, he has no interest in the Three Thousand Worlds. love."
"But just now, I figured out something. Maybe there is another possibility."
"What?"
Dieyue asked.
Su Zimo said: "The Holy King of Samsara has never changed."
"From the beginning to the end, he wanted to realize his and the Holy King's ideals and build a world where all living beings are equal."
"But he knows that the original Three Thousand Worlds are already riddled with holes. Even if he takes charge of the Three Thousand Worlds, he cannot change the rules and regulations that have existed for many years."
"Only by breaking down the old Three Thousand Worlds and rebuilding the Three Thousand Worlds can we achieve equality for all living beings in the new world."
