Chapter 1995 Ladder to Heaven
Heaven, Lingxiao Palace.
Sun Wukong stood in the main hall, scratching his head and ears at the Jade Emperor.
"Wukong, look at this, this is the mortal you are talking about. Mortals support gods, and gods are mortals. But now it has become like this? Can you still blame us this time? Can you still blame us? What do we do? We have given them everything we can."
Sun Wukong had nothing to say.
This time he had no reason to curse.
He wanted to curse.
What a bunch of bastards. They have everything but still don’t live a good life. They feel bored every day.
He can be reincarnated indefinitely, and has no worries about food and drink. Thinking about how to end this boring life all day long is simply incomprehensible to him.
"Great Heavenly Lord, I have known that mortals have endless desires, and I have also known that they will pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to scold their mother. Now they have no worries about eating and drinking, and their life span is worry-free, but they are still so despicable, indeed I can’t blame you anymore. I’ll go down and find them myself.”
Sun Wukong said and went directly to the lower world.
After the lower realm, he found a fat man.
Sun Wukong asked: "Big Fatty, are you happy now?"
"I'm not happy."
Sun Wukong asked doubtfully: "Why? Do you have anything to eat or not?" Drink and live forever, and you can still be unhappy.”
"This is all too fake. Without real death, there is no real life." The fat man touched his belly and looked at the chicken leg stall next to him.
Sun Wukong knocked the fat man out of the sky with a stick, and he directly became a part of the clouds, a blood-red sunset.
Four days later, the big fat man came back from the tree.
Sun Wukong found him again: "Are you still bored now?"
"No longer boring!" The big fat man looked at Sun Wukong fiercely, "I have a new goal, I must To defeat you, I want to have the same power as you!”
After saying that, the big fat man went to find the god who served him.
"Do you want to have the same power as him?" The god asked doubtfully, as if he heard that an ordinary person was going to pick the moon.
"Yes, he is a human being, and I am also a human being. I have infinite life, why can't I do it?" the big fat man said seriously.
"Okay, you just need to finish one question first. This is a chessboard, a Go board. Put a grain of rice in the first grid, and then put twice the amount in each grid until Finish. When you complete this question, you will have more power than Sun Wukong. "Of course the gods know Sun Wukong.
“This is easy.” The big fat man happily took the chessboard.
The chessboard is automatically retractable and can be enlarged as many grains of rice as you put on it.
Soon, when it was placed on the 20th grid, the big fat man realized that it was impossible.
"I can live for countless years. If I can't live in this life, I will continue to live in the next life!" He still encouraged himself.
It's just that he forgot that there are some things that no matter how long he lives, he won't be able to do it.
Because the total amount of matter in the universe is limited, the total amount of matter in the three realms is also limited.
It's like you can't solve an unsolvable problem, no matter how long you live.
Sun Wukong walked up to the big fat man: "If you have the same power as me, will you be happy?"
"Of course, I can hit whoever I want when the time comes. I think Bully whoever you bully, I've had enough of this life where everyone is equal," the big fat man said harshly.
"I understand, people like you shouldn't live indefinitely." Sun Wukong said, stretched out his finger and turned the big fat man into a stone.
"Very good, you will stay here forever, and you will know how happy your life was before."
In fact, only ten minutes later, the big fat man started shouting:
"Let me out, I already feel that my life was very happy before."
"I want to eat, I'm hungry It’s gone!”
But how can a stone make a sound?
The sound he makes can only be heard by himself.
No one thought that the world would develop in this direction. Although the world is already so good, there are still many people who say that they are unhappy.
Sun Wukong still couldn’t believe it.
He found another family.
There are only two brothers in this family.
The two said at the same time: "I am not happy now because I have no son."
"Why do you want a son?"
"It's so good to live alone." Sun Wukong said speechlessly, "Old Sun has been alone for five hundred years and he didn't say anything."
"I If you want to raise a child again and experience the joy of raising a child, you can look for it in the tree. In the reincarnation of memory, we still don’t know who is older and who is more mature.” The two brothers said dissatisfiedly.
Sun Wukong completely understood.
Lu Dongbin was right.
People can only let people control themselves. The more you control, the more mistakes you make.
And they will scold you.
But if you don’t care and let them mess around, if something happens, he will curse God again.
He always scolds the dark sky, black sky, evil sky...
Sun Wukong thought that this seemed to be his own curse.
In fact, God has not offended him and has given him a great opportunity.
God just doesn’t care about anything and lets you do whatever you want.
What do you want you to do? What do you want you to do? Really.
Sun Wukong sighed, he rarely sighed.
But this time, he sighed.
He returned directly to Lingxiao.
"Wukong, tell us, what did you see?" the Queen Mother asked curiously.
Sun Wukong said with a tired face: "I found that no matter what I do, these people will not be satisfied."
"This is the endless desire of the human heart, which cannot be satisfied by sacred immortals and Buddhas." Taishang Laojun smiled, "So I never think about it, I always give these mortals the right to choose, and I never ask these people What are you doing?"
"Human nature cannot be satisfied. Even if they have everything, they will still feel unhappy."
"It's like a child who has a lot of toys, but when he takes a fancy to one toy again. If you don't buy it for him, he will still make a fuss. He will not stop buying the 10,001th toy just because he already has 10,000 toys. This is human nature. ”
"So the rulers should do nothing and leave the choice to the people themselves, and they will accept the good or bad by themselves."
"Damn mortals, I will kill them all." Sun Wukong heard this , suddenly said angrily, "If there is no one anymore, there will be no desire."
The Jade Emperor laughed again: "You monkey, you are acting bad again. There are many people who know how to be satisfied."
The monkey scratched his head and scratched his head: "Jade Emperor, I know those people you mentioned, but why? Satisfy everyone? ”
“You must never give people a good life, you must make them feel comfortable and uncomfortable for a while, always in the contrast of life before and after. Always keep them at an excellent level, they will never be comfortable." Sun Wukong suddenly realized.
But he still didn't know what to do now, so he asked: "Those five Heavenly Lords, what should we do now? How can we make people's hearts united and everyone live a good life?"
< br>Wen Rensheng smiled and said: "Give them a neighbor, people's happiness comes from their neighbors."
Hearing this, Sun Wukong suddenly understood completely.
He stretched out his golden hoop and pierced it through the thirty-three days until he reached another world.
……
At the same time.
In a dry and hot land, plants died and animals turned into bones.
Everywhere in the dry rivers, lakes, and inlets, there are the miserable bones of animals.
People gathered on the coast, relying on the sun and the remaining sea water to produce fresh water from the sun.
This is a very clever method.
Build a large, shaded house deep underground. There is a row of bamboo pipes on the ground, connected to a seawater pool.
The seawater is evaporated, and the evaporated water vapor enters the bamboo tubes, then cools in the large room and turns into water droplets.
Not very efficient, but at least it keeps people alive. However, this water can be used to survive, but it cannot grow ordinary wheat and corn, let alone rice.
Those crop fields consume too much water.
Fortunately, some smart people have learned to grow cacti and camel thorns, and use bamboo tubes to reach the roots.
Relying on cactus and camel thorns, they lived hard on the seaside and raised some livestock.
As for people who are not close to the sea, they have long been turned into bones like animals.
They are fortunate that the great sea, the cradle of life, has not dried up and can still help resist the drought that has lasted for many years.
They just hope to survive until the heavy rain falls.
"O God, please give us mercy, give us a new place to live, and let the heavy rain come." People pray every day.
Hope finally comes.
This is a golden stick falling from the sky.
Along with it comes cool weather.
The sun disappeared and dark clouds appeared.
Then countless fish and rain fell.
Everyone was so happy that they not only had water, but also fish to eat.
Fishing in sea water is not easy.
After people were happy, they quickly began to pay attention to the stick that came down from the sky.
“What is that?”
“Is it the Babel Pillar?”
“The other end of the stick must be heaven.” These people said excitedly.
Some people are eager to climb up, thinking they can reach heaven by climbing up.
Perhaps this is the only way out given by God.
"We must leave here before the heavy rain disappears. The stick given by God will definitely only last for a while."
Everyone nodded.
This is very similar to rescuing people. The people on the shore stretch out a stick, but no one will keep stretching out the stick.
If you don't catch him for a long time, is it possible to let him wait for you for a day?
Many people began to try to climb up this pillar.
The first man only climbed 10 meters before he became weak and was forced to fall. He fell to the ground and died.
The second person climbed up again and continued to move forward.
Finally he climbed to 20 meters, which was very high, but he still fell. .
The third person continued to climb.
The third man climbed up and up. He was very good and climbed to 60 meters with his bare hands.
This would break the world record on Earth.
Of course, this is because the stick is very thick and wide, and there are various grooves on it, which can be dropped.
In fact, it is just the pattern of Sun Wukong’s golden cudgel.
The third person did not continue climbing.
He said: "We can't climb down blindly. We have to prepare enough things. This pillar to the sky is at least several thousand miles high."
Thousands of miles?
Everyone was shocked. Walking thousands of miles on flat ground is very tiring.
Not to mention climbing thousands of miles to high places.
"We need to bring enough cacti and drinking water?"
"But how to bring them?"
"We can use hot air balloons." A wise man said, "I I have made a hot air balloon, wrapping it with cloth on the top and lighting a fire on the bottom to rise.”
It is actually an oversized Kongming Lantern, which was made by the ancients.
However, it has not been further put into practical use.
The hot air balloon can keep floating upward, but when the hot air balloon reaches a certain height.
It won't float anymore.
Of course these people don’t know.
They made an unprecedented large hot air balloon.
However, they found a big problem, not that the hot air balloon did not fly high enough.
In order to prevent the balloon from flying around, a rope is necessary. But the rope is too long and the hot air balloon cannot fly.
But if the rope is too short, how can we ensure that the hot air balloon can fly to the pillar?
“We can tie the rope to the stick.”
“The stick is too big, at least several miles wide, and the rope is still too long.”
People I have a headache.
At this time, someone said: "We can make a ladder to the sky. Along this pillar, we can keep tying it with ropes in circles, and just hang the grain on the ropes."
"Tie a Walk forward in a circle.”
Everyone was very happy, but this was bound to consume a lot of food and fresh water.
They don’t have much food.
But in order to hope, they squeezed out the most food, collected hemp rope, and made hemp rope.
We start working on this sky-reaching rope project every year.
This project took ten thousand years to complete!
It’s almost equivalent to traveling half a mile uphill in a year.
The Sky Rope was finally built and they could climb up.
After continuously delivering fresh water and food through the rope, someone was finally the first to reach the top of the golden hoop.
He entered the three realms.
He took his first breath and died immediately.
There is spiritual energy in the three realms.
Ordinary people absorbing spiritual energy is similar to a person who suddenly eats something very greasy after being hungry for a long time. They simply cannot bear it.
Nine out of ten people will get sick.
But everyone kept coming.
Another person comes here.
The first person lasted only one breath, the second person lasted for one minute, and the third person lasted for 5 minutes.
Starting from the third person, each of them writes down their feelings.
Use your diary to tell future generations that there is an extremely rich and beautiful world in front of you.
When the thousandth person came to the Three Realms, he found that he finally adapted to this world.
He can survive in this world.
What a wonderful world.
He stayed there for nine years and visited many places.
He went back and told his people: "There is everything in that world. If you just throw a handful of seeds, you can grow hundreds of kilograms of food that year. The weather will be smooth and everything will be beautiful."
"I also saw a giant tree, and their people all fell from the tree."
"After they die, they will return to the tree, and then the tree will bear fruit, and they will It will grow out of the fruit again, and they will not really die. This is so happy.”
“But they don’t know how to cherish it. They talk about it all day long. It’s too boring. There is no challenge or fun in life. ."
When the tribesmen heard what he said, they were all shocked.
“Don’t these guys know how difficult it is to survive? They still want challenges and fun. I really can’t understand these people.”
