Chapter 625: God
The three of them felt relieved and confirmed that the ancestor of the underworld would not take revenge. As for the settlement of the accounts after the autumn, it was not a problem that the three of them should worry about.
So I stopped thinking too much, so I soared into the air and flew to Taozhi Mountain together.
Along the way, Zhang Jue saw many cities in ghost countries. These cities are very distinctive. Like the world, there are tall buildings everywhere.
But the high-rise buildings here are all ancient and ancient styles, just the height of the building is built, and there is no modern style.
From these buildings, we can see that the population of Jiuzhou underworld is very large.
If the land is vast and sparsely populated, there will be no tall buildings. But the population is too dense, and there are no tall buildings. In the limited space, it cannot accommodate so many people.
Zhang Jue asked: "What's going on in the underworld's gods?"
Cai Yulei said: "That's it."
Since they had a conflict with Zhang Jue just now and exposed each other in front of the ancestor of the underworld, Cai Yulei didn't want to pay much attention to Zhang Jue.
Zhang Jue didn't care about Cai Yulei's little emotions at all, and asked closely: "How did they practice?"
"I practiced like that."
"Where is that?"
“That’s it.”
Cai Yulei sneered and said so.
Zhang Jue smiled, not caring about Cai Yulei's expression, and ignoring Ai's appearance, murmured to himself: "Oh, I don't know who the ancestor of the underworld is closer to. To be honest, I am actually under a lot of pressure. I am so taken care of by him. If I don't get some results, I will be shameless when I see him in the future."
Cai Yulei's expression was frozen, and it was as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly. The meaning of this was too obvious: Don't mess with me, don't forget. You are the official in the underworld in Jiuzhou. I am a person who was trained by the ancestor of the underworld in person and cultivated along the way.
When wearing small shoes, everyone is afraid. People are afraid, ghosts are afraid, and gods are afraid. This is the power of the system.
Cai Yulei said crazy: "What the hell do you want to do?"
Zhang Jue said sincerely: "I just want to know how they practiced?"
Shen Tu was afraid of Cai Yulei's temper and angered Zhang Jue, and said, "It's actually not difficult. Do you know that there are many temples and Taoist temples in the world?"
"I know."
"Do you know. Do some of the statues in the temples are actually spiritual?"
"I know. It should seem that I am spiritual." Zhang Jue said seriously.
Shen Tu nodded and said, "That's it. The real gods in the world, and the real gods are actually too lazy to care about the world. For example, many people worship Guan Gong. However, there are so many statues of Guan Gong in the world. You said, if there is really only one Guan Gong, how much worry will he have to worry about in a day?"
"Is Guan Gong really a god?"
Shen Tu sighed: "Why don't you understand yet? No, he is not a god. But the people think he is God. So, he is God. All the images of gods are actually only used to make the people entrust the emptiness in their spirit. History is related to Gong, but he is not a god himself, but the people say he is God, so he is God. So there is a Guan Gong statue, saying that he is Wu wealth god, then he is Wu wealth god."
"Then I created countless statues of Guan Gong and countless statues of the God of Martial God of Wealth. You said, is that the statue of the god created with mortal objects still a god?"
Zhang Jue shook his head: "It shouldn't be?"
"But why did the statue of the god created by ordinary things appear?"
Zhang Jue was confused: "I don't know."
I really don’t know, because some of the things here are beyond the ordinary people’s cognition.
Shentu continued: "Because, among the statues of God, the thoughts of Yin God are the thoughts of Yin God. Yin God is the thoughts released by those who practice gods in the underworld in Jiuzhou. God actually does not exist at all. The statue of God is just a symbol, which allows people to see the statue of God and know what kind of god he is. And if the Yin God lives in a cup and in a pair of shoes, a metaphor is just a metaphor. Then the believers who worship the cup and a pair of shoes devoutly are no different from worshiping the statue of God."
"There is a saying that if a mountain is not high, there are immortals and spirits. Ordinary things are ordinary things. Not that the shapes of ordinary things will have different effects, but in fact they are the same inside. This is the statue of a god. Do you understand?"
Zhang Jue frowned: "I understand a little, but I don't understand a little. Then what do you mean is that Gods are all made up?"
Shen Tu patted Zhang Jue on the shoulder and said seriously: "I tell you, the answer is correct."
"Ah?" Zhang Jue was shocked. Why did the god become a fiction again?
Shen Tu said: "If you believe, you have it; if you don't believe, you won't. If you don't believe in God, there will be no God. If you believe in God, then even if you don't have God, there will be God. Attitude determines everything. You can even say that I and Cai Yulei are also fictional."
Zhang Jue widened his eyes: "Is it true or false?"
Shen Tu nodded: "Once upon a time, Cai Yulei and I were very upset. In the nearby villages and towns, there were often small slaughter, pretending to be a ghost, harming the people, and greed for money. Cai Yulei and I caught the small slaughter and fed them to tigers. The people said that the small slaughter were ghosts, but Cai Yulei and I were good at catching ghosts, and they would feed them to tigers every time we caught ghosts. So, after it was spread, Cai Yulei and I became professional ghost catching households."
"Then the people think we are gods and can help the people turn bad luck into good fortune and drive away evil spirits. Therefore, we naturally become gods. Then, the people think we can protect the peace of the country, so they stick our portraits on the door, so we become door gods again."
"Then, Taoism felt that it was necessary to classify the gods, and the gate gods were gradually replaced by Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong. Therefore, we became the Eastern Ghost Emperor again. The people felt that the Eastern Ghost Emperor needed to manage something, so they helped us create Taozhi Mountain. Everyone believed that there was Taozhi Mountain, everyone believed that the Ghost Gate was in Taozhi Mountain, and Cai Yulei and I managed Taozhi Mountain. So, we became the Eastern Ghost Emperor who managed Taozhi Mountain and the Ghost Gate."
Shen Tu smiled and looked at Zhang Jue and said, "This is God. Although I am standing in front of you now, you can say that I do not exist. There is really no god in reality, gods and ghosts come from people's hearts and people's thoughts. When the people's thoughts are empty and need to have sustenance, he fantasizes about having God. Many people fantasize about having God, then there is God."
Zhang Jue looked at the two of them for a long time and sighed: "You are instilling idealism in me."
Cai Yulei laughed and pointed at Zhang Jue and said, "Do you think your existence is not idealistic? I tell you what materialism is. Materialism is what you see, what you hear, what you really touch. I tell you what idealistic is. I tell you what idealistic is. I don't see, what you haven't heard, what you really touch. But you can't be sure what you see must exist. You can't deny that what you haven't seen must not exist."
Zhang Jue was shocked and suddenly understood a lot.
