Chapter 232: Carlyle's Wisdom
There are 1 million interviews tomorrow, so you still have to prepare a little, and let's take a look at 3000+ today.
Although I discussed with my family and wanted to try to write books full-time, but after thinking about it, I felt that with my grades, it was impossible to support myself, and it was imperative to find a job.
Don't say so much, the song I recommend to you today is Cee-lo.Green's Fu.ck-you, yes, you read that right, this song is the name. Ceelo is a very DIAO guy in the American soul music scene, I am not very used to black music, I think those songs are really ugly, country and pop are my dishes; But this song is okay -
The old man snorted coldly, and for a moment he was so choked on Yang Hai's cousin and Evans's meanness that he couldn't speak. But the old man just pursed his lips and said indifferently: "I am willing to gamble and lose, but I didn't expect that the fact that you are a fool does not affect you to accept a good apprentice." Case. The old man picked up the quill, wrote a few more strokes on the Book of Eternity, and threw the Book of Eternity to Yang Hai.
"This will be used as a reward for your passing the test." The old man said lightly.
"Huh?" Yang Hai was stunned, the Book of Eternity was originally mine, could it be that if I am not satisfied with my answers to these questions, you will still confiscate my Book of Eternity?
Master Carlyle laughed angrily at Yang Hai's thoughts, pointed at Yang Hai, and said, "I don't know if you're really smart or a fool now, just with Evans's subtle deeds, can I still covet his handwriting?" I have written all the knowledge in this library into the Book of Eternity, and it is up to you to learn as much as you can. Don't beat me up for this library idea again! β
Yang Hai smiled a little embarrassedly, and put away the Book of Eternity, this reward can be regarded as rich, at least, the purpose of coming to the library has been completely achieved.
"Seniors. I have one more question. β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Carlyle said lightly.
"Since you live in this ancient kingdom of Lakhta, you have devoted yourself to the study of knowledge and entered the astral realm together; The Valley of the Ancient Kings of Lakhta has such a powerful being as powerful as you, and you see evil spirits doing evil, why don't you intervene? Yang Hai felt very incomprehensible: "If you intervene, it is absolutely impossible for the ancient kingdom of Lakhta to perish." β
"If I do my best to protect it, will this country never fall?" Carlyle said lightly, scolding: "Naive and shallow. β
Yang Hai was stunned.
"I thought you kid had a quick head. With a solid foundation, how could it be trained by a fool like Evans. Master Carlyle said lightly: "I heard you say your own thoughts, you have your master's temperament, which can be regarded as not a family, not entering a family." β
Yang Hai couldn't answer.
"Evans was as naΓ―ve and stupid as you were back then." Carlyle commented unceremoniously: "He always thought that the power of wisdom could sway, rule, and change." He simply can't see the true nature of this world. At that time, he did not care about the ancestral teachings of his master who forbade him to enter the WTO, and he must use his own strength to end this world that was in turmoil. What happened to him? As an ascetic, he traveled around the world, preaching his teachings. Fight against AO, build engines, write the Book of Eternity, and become gods in the flesh. What the scholar didn't do, he did all. At that time, there were thousands of his disciples, and the light of truth shone into all the dark corners of the continent; But in the end, he didn't fall silent again. Make an oath not to interfere in the affairs of the mainland? β
Yang Hai listened quietly, because his knowledge of history was jumping up at a rate of 1% per second, which was really rare.
"Ignorant scholars think they have the power of wisdom and try to change the world." Carlyle said coldly: "They never knew that as scholars, we are just passers-by in time, a drop in the ocean of history, the power of wisdom? It's just a trivial thing. Birth, growth, strength, weakness, aging, death, this is the inevitable course of life for any being. Foolish people only see something bad happening and are bent on stopping it, but they don't see the necessity for it to happen or the reason why it happens. Was the reason for the fall of the ancient kingdom of Lakhta because of evil spirits? β
Yang Hai was a little confused, and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" β
"You only see the surface of the world, but you ignore the essence of the world." Carlyle said unceremoniously: "If this country had not been superstitious about its own strength, its monarchs and courtiers would not have developed a love of arrogance and laziness, without which evil spirits would have no chance." This evil spirit, which can only devour the malicious growth in the hearts of people, is born in vain, and if there is no soil, it will return to vanity. The king and his subjects have raised this evil spirit themselves, and this is the way to death, so why should I stop it? β
Yang Hai's afterglow saw Luca tremble.
"But wouldn't it be a good thing if the master was willing to take action to expel this demon?" Yang Hai asked in amazement.
"How can it be a good thing?" Carlyle was dismissive: "Once upon a time there was a man who was obsessed with gambling and quickly lost all his savings. Inside the casino, he had red eyes and said that I only had the last bit of money left, which was my daughter's money for medicine. If I lose again, I won't live. At that time, I was young, and I saw that he was pitiful, so I secretly used means to help him change the gambling game. That one he won, and I also felt the power of wisdom, which is the power that can control the life and death of others, and I felt so satisfied that I even forgot the teacher's admonition and became obsessed with this power. I said to myself, I didn't use this power to do bad things, I did righteous things and helped people, so it doesn't hurt to break my vows. The result? A year later, I met the man again by chance, he won money at the last minute, but his gambling addiction became even worse, and he sold his wife and daughter, and then his house and land, and finally lost nothing in the casino and ended up on the streets. That's when I knew I was wrong. You yourself think you can change something, but in fact the result is already predestined. Your rash actions will only lead to the punishment of more innocent people. If I hadn't helped, the gambler would have committed suicide at most, and his daughter and wife might have had a harder life, but it would have been better than being pushed into a fire pit; But I came to my aid, and the gambler died an even more miserable death, and he died of hunger and cold, guilt. It also involved two innocent women who fell into a hellish life together. I thought I had redeemed a fallen soul, but it was nothing more than boasting of the unworthy desires of my heart. The truth is that I became a demon, an executioner. Even if it is done with good intentions, it is still evil, wisdom is too terrible, it is too easy for people to see their own catties clearly, thinking that they can change the world, but they don't know that they are becoming butchers, killing thousands of people in a single thought. β
Yang Hai was dumbfounded, unable to make a sound.
"Everyone has a beast in their hearts. This beast is screaming, screaming that I want to be a hero. The name of this beast is ambition. Carlyle said coldly: "For ordinary people, ambition is a good thing, this is the driving force for them to move forward, this is the foundation of this world order." But for those of us who are ambitious things that are unnecessary, always thinking that we can change the world, rule the world, if you really think so. You are as shallow as your master back then. Birth and disappearance have their own reasons; Both life and death have unique values. The wolf will brutally tear apart the slowest prey, because of the slowest prey. The most old and sick of all, if he lived, he would have transmitted the disease to his young and able-bodied people, and then the whole tribe would perish. So I can't help the ancient kingdom of Lakhta. The country made mistakes and was terminally ill, for the sake of world order. In order for the innocent to survive, it must perish. β
Everyone pondered what old Carlyle had said, and for a moment the room fell silent.
Soon, they were kicked out of the library by the old man.
MARSHAL LUCA DUO BUZZED BEHIND YANG HAI AND SAID, "MR. POSEIDON......"
Yang Hai turned to look at him.
"Perhaps...... Perhaps, what Mr. Carlyle said is very reasonable, but ......" Lucado's voice was hesitant and pleading: "The Kingdom of Lakhta has already received the punishment it deserves, and I hope you will not change your mind because of Mr. Carlyle's words. The people here may have their own sins, but they still deserve to rest in peace. β
"I'm not going to change my mind." Yang Hai said with a smile: "Carlyle's predecessor may have a point, but I am not a great being, and I have no power to change the world. Therefore, the fate of birth, old age, sickness and death is still too high-end for me, so I should continue to save the world. β
Lucardo didn't speak, and silently gave Yang Hai a chest salute-
The library line, Yang Hai has gained a lot, it is a complete surprise to be able to meet his uncle in the ancient kingdom, his polymath promotion has entered a bottleneck, the current plane travel is too difficult for him, if he rushes to do it, he will probably be ruthlessly beaten by the monsters in front of you, now that there is a new promotion channel, then the matter of plane travel can be postponed.
As soon as they came out of the library, they rushed to the town hall, which was not far from the town hall, and they passed through two squares full of ghosts in succession, and then walked through a block full of strange statues, and finally came to the front of the town hall.
The city hall is one of the few individual buildings in the city, not connected to other buildings, the city hall is very large, built against the inner wall of the city, inside the inner wall is the world of dignitaries and nobles, and outside the wall is the real life of the poor people.
The city hall was the closest way to the palace, and Yang Hai weighed it, the possibility of something unclean in the city hall was very high, basically 100 percent, but he still decided to go here.
Because the other roads have to go around a long distance, they may not be easier to walk than the town hall, and there is a high probability that they will be blocked; Another place that can be called a shortcut is the sewer, but the place where there is no light of day is the easiest place to breed evil, Yang Hai weighed it, anyway, he has to face danger, and the danger in the city hall may be easier to deal with.
"I'm scouting ahead, Pooh takes care to add blood to me." Yang Hai said.
EGGPAIN FOLDED HIS HANDS TOGETHER AND BLESSED YANG HAI WITH A TWILIGHT BARRIER, AND KAKULUCIA ALSO HELD UP FIVE MYSTERIES IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. Blake gestured to indicate that he was ready to help.
Yang Hai took a deep breath, pushed open the door of the city hall, and walked in. (To be continued......)
