Origin Chapter 96: The high and the low
"Hahaha..." Wang Xinran laughed arrogantly.
Wu Zhongyuan frowned and looked at her. Wang Xinran knew that Wu Zhongyuan was looking at her, but she couldn't help it. She almost broke out of laughter and coughed again and again.
"Why didn't you suffocate you?" Wu Zhongyuan looked disgusted.
"Haha, he was afraid that the words he wrote would fade after a long time, so he simply burned a porcelain vase with the words on it," Wang Xinran laughed. "This old thing really worked hard to make fun of you." /
"Have you wiped the **** off your hands?" Wu Zhongyuan mocked.
Wang Xinran is not a serious person at all, she is very casual, laughs whenever she wants, laughs all the time, and leans back and forth when she laughs.
Seeing her laughing gaffe, Lv Jiahui was puzzled. She walked over to read the words on the porcelain bottle, covered her mouth and walked away after reading it.
Zhang Shukai was rather dull and didn't talk much, but the actions of the three still aroused his curiosity, and he came over and wanted to see, Wu Zhongyuan simply stuffed the porcelain bottle to him, "Give it to you."
Before seeing what was written on the porcelain vase, Zhang Shukai was mentally prepared to restrain himself, but after seeing the words 'Deer Whip Dabu Dan', he couldn't hold back, and burst into laughter Coughing up.
After thinking hard for a long time, but finally got such a **** reward, it is inevitable for anyone to be depressed, but after thinking about it, Wu Zhongyuan is relieved. Wiping a hand of filth, the corresponding reward is a piece of rock candy, while Xiumen's punishment is a **** head, and the reward is a kidney-tonifying medicinal pill. The punishment and the reward are relative.
Walk through a stone gate and enter the third gate, Shengmen.
Shengmen is also a stone room. There is also a stone platform in the stone room, but this stone platform has been broken, and there is a smell of * in the air. The stone platform should have been blown up by some kind of *.
To the north of the stone room, there is a stone box near the fourth stone gate. The size of the box is about the size of a microwave oven. At this time, the lid of the box has been lifted.
The floor of the stone chamber was covered with thick white dust, at least three or four centimeters thick. Like the second stone room, the top of this stone room also has dense round holes, and the thick dust on the ground is undoubtedly ejected from the round holes at the top.
Lu Jiahui rubbed and inspected the white dust, "It should be plant ash."
"First come a **** head, and then a disgraced face." Wu Zhongyuan said.
After Wu Zhongyuan finished speaking, Wang Xinran wanted to laugh again. The reason why she wanted to laugh was because the embarrassment of Zhao Ying and others appeared in her mind, but she also felt that the smile was not serious enough, so she tried to hold it back.
"They may be very annoyed after being teased, so they blow up the stone platform in a rage," Zhang Shukai said.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, walked north, and walked over to check the stone box in front of the stone gate. The stone box is now empty, but it should have contained something in it before.
When Wu Zhongyuan was checking the stone box, Wang Xinran came over and said, "There is dust in the stone box, which means it was opened before they triggered the trap."
Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer the question. It stands to reason that the contents in the stone box should be the reward of the living door, but since Zhao Ying and others triggered the mechanism, it means that they failed to answer the question correctly. Since the answer is wrong, why is there a reward.
I was puzzled, so I tried to push the stone box. With a push, the stone box moved.
Knock on the slate below the stone box, there is no echo, which indicates that there is no mechanism for pushing and moving below, and the stone box was originally placed outside.
"This stone gate was blocked from the inside." Wang Xinran pointed to the stone gate to the north and said.
Wu Zhongyuan was thinking about other things and didn't answer.
After inspecting the stone box, Wu Zhongyuan turned around and walked towards the blasted stone platform. Although the stone platform was broken, it could still be put together.
In addition to the gravel, the wreckage of the stone platform also has many tortuous metal connecting rods. These connecting rods should be transmission devices. The main body of the mechanism is hidden in the stone wall. Depending on the operation of the stone platform, different mechanisms are triggered, or Reward or punish.
The stone platform is seriously damaged. Even if the stone platform is pieced together, I am afraid it will not be able to trigger the corresponding mechanism. However, Wu Zhongyuan did not put together the stone platform to obtain the reward here, but just wanted to find out why the stone box was placed in the here.
Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had the intention to piece the stone platform together, the three of them also came to help. The supporting stone pier was useless, and the four of them put it together directly from the ground.
Soon, the broken stone platform was pieced together. The style was similar to the previous stone platform. There were also some round holes and some text. On the far right was a relatively large column of words, 'Failed to retreat, Take the things in the stone letter and go. ’
The appearance of this column of words directly solved Wu Zhongyuan's doubts, that the stone box was deliberately placed there by Zuo Ci.
In addition to this relatively large column of characters, there are three columns of small characters on the stone platform. ' On the left side of this column of small characters, there are five round holes arranged up and down, and above each round hole there are small characters, namely 'Wu, King, Limin, Parents, Wife and Children. ’
"These are three multiple-choice questions." Wang Xinran said.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "It seems obvious, but in fact, there is a hidden Taoist Yili, and most people can't answer it correctly."
"How to choose the first one?" Wang Xinran asked.
"How do you choose?" Wu Zhongyuan asked rhetorically.
Wang Xinran didn't answer immediately, but turned to look at Lv Jiahui, "How do you choose?"
Lu Jiahui thought for a while, "Should I choose Li Min?"
Wang Xinran looked at Zhang Shukai, who was standing on his left. Zhang Shukai didn't want to answer, but Wang Xinran kept looking at him. He had no choice but to say, "I think it's my parents."
Wang Xinran looked at Wu Zhongyuan again.
"I ask you, what do you think of me?" Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Are they right?" Wang Xinran asked rhetorically.
"Don't worry about them, you just say what do you think?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"If I choose the first one, wouldn't it be selfish?" Wang Xinran laughed at himself.
"The first one should be right." Wu Zhongyuan said, "In Taoism's view, 'I' is the root of everything, without 'I' even the world does not exist, let alone the king Limin, a person who treats himself kindly A person may not be kind to others, but if a person is not kind to himself, he will not be kind to others.”
"You are more important than your parents?" Zhang Shukai's face was not very good-looking.
"But if a matter is related to your own destiny, and your opinion is inconsistent with that of your parents, who do you choose to listen to?" Wu Zhongyuan asked rhetorically.
Zhang Shukai did not answer.
"Is it a bit selfish and narrow-minded?" Lv Jiahui whispered.
Wu Zhongyuan said, "Zuo Ci's question only asks who is the most important person in the world. It is a philosophical question and does not involve morality. The benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom, but I can guarantee that in his opinion, the first choice is correct. ."
"It's a pity that the mechanism is broken, so I can't verify whether your answer is correct." Wang Xinran smiled.
"Although the stone platform is broken, the connecting rod below is still there. Pressing the connecting rod should also trigger the mechanism." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"How to answer the second one?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan did not answer immediately, the second question was 'choose one', there are still five round holes on the left side, above each round hole there is an idiom 'repaying grievances with virtue, the law of heaven is clear, the foolishness is unswerving, self-restraint is restored Ritual, kill oneself and become a benevolent person. ’
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan and turning to look at her again, Wang Xinran waved her hands again and again, "Don't ask us again, you can do it yourself."
Wu Zhongyuan said, "These five idioms are all from the Analects of Confucius, Zuo Ci should have seen the Analects of Confucius."
"Choose one is to let you choose one of these five idioms?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "These five idioms all contain an attitude or view on life, and he wants me to choose the correct one in my opinion."
"Aren't these five idioms correct?" Wang Xinran wondered.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "That's your opinion. In his opinion, only one is right."
Wang Xinran stared at the slate, "I don't think he is the kind of person who retaliates with virtue."
“Thoughts determine actions,” Wu Zhongyuan said. “It can’t be said that he is not the kind of person who repays grievances with virtue. It should be said that in his opinion, repaying grievances with virtues is not correct. Repaying grievances with virtues, why repay virtues? Give you food every day and beat you every day. If you have a meal, you will laugh at others, who will give you food? They will beat you."
"It seems that you are with him." Wang Xinran smiled.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head again, "I can't say that. Some of my thoughts are similar to him because he is a Taoist person, and my master is also a Taoist priest. I have been nurtured by Taoism since childhood." /
"What about the second one?" Wang Xinran asked.
"It should also be ruled out," Wu Zhongyuan said.
"The reason." Wang Xinran said.
"The clear principle of heaven means that God can preside over justice," Wu Zhongyuan said. "When you are wronged, you don't seek justice yourself, but instead hope that God will uphold justice. This is a sign of cowardice, and someone who has been bullied by some people. , did not dare to resist, saying 'I don't have the same knowledge as you', and pretending to have the quality to cover up my cowardice is a truth."
"Needless to say, it is definitely correct to be foolish." Wang Xinran said.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "At least in his opinion, it is correct. The immutable meaning of ignorance means that the minds of ignorant people are difficult to change. Confucius actually said a big truth, but this sentence is easy to put in modern times. caused public outrage.”
"This person's three views are not right." Zhang Shukai said sternly.
"This is what Confucius said, not Zuo Ci." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Zhang Shukai is speechless, because Confucius is now the object of respect and study by the world, how dare he say that the three views of the sages of Confucius are not right.
Wu Zhongyuan added, "Zuo Ci knows how to do magic, so he doesn't need to follow some rules in the world, so he dares to speak out, say what he wants to say, and do what he wants to do. He was arrested and beheaded. But even so, he is a shy and widowed man, and it is difficult to have a bosom friend.”
"There is one last question." Wang Xinran urged.
The third question roughly means how to deal with the offense of others. In forgiveness, tolerance, counterattack, connivance, and persuasion, Wu Zhongyuan chose to counterattack without hesitation. Loss of light, and persuasion is definitely useless, because a person who dares to offend himself will definitely not listen to preaching.
Find the corresponding connecting rod and press it accordingly.
The answer is correct, the trigger is triggered, and there is a slight vibration from the stone room...
