Dharma Ring: Selling Dung Beetles at the Border

Chapter 494 The World of Hundred Wisdoms

"Such a big hatred?" Wuming was curious, "Why?"

"You are not in the guidance." Bai Zhi said, "You are the variable at the junction."

"Is it because of this?" Wuming said.

Bai Zhi nodded: "Because of this, Two Fingers' mission is to guide the world. But you..."

Bai Zhi glanced at Wu Ming:

"You're not from this world, right?"

"My hometown is indeed not in the border area." Wuming said.

"Not only that, there are reed fields and wild lands outside the border area." Bai Zhi said, "But these places are still affected by the radiation from the border area."

"You are different." Baizhi looked at Wuming, "You are from a completely different world. I have read a lot of books and visited the mountains, but I have not found a spell like yours. The patterns of the magic circle, the patterns of the weapons and armor It’s not like this world at all.”

Baizhi held the scepter tightly: "You wear a human skin, but you are not from the border area. In nature, you are more like a child of the star."

"Oh..." Wuming thought, "So?"

"So you will be hated by Two Fingers." Momochi said, "You let the junction escape from its original destiny."

Wuming understood and said helplessly:

"It seems that the Two Fingers really can't let go of their mission."

Wuming looked at Baizhi: "What about you? You have been very nervous since the beginning, ready to enter a fighting state at any time. Why are you hostile to me?"

"I don't approve of Two Fingers, but I am also aware of your danger." Bai Zhi said, "I recognize your will, but Queen Malika's legacy is to keep us struggling."

"It's inexplicable." Wuming was puzzled, "Speaking in human terms, who understands what you are saying."

Baizhi said: "Of course you don't understand, you have no understanding of the Golden Law. The principle of regression binds everything, and the only way left for us is constant struggle. If you are willing to listen to me, give up all your plans. As long as If you retreat behind the scenes and don’t interfere, the junction and the two fingers will naturally no longer reject you.”

"I think you should take off your clothes now and put on a big hat." Wuming said, "Are you who study magic so easy to go crazy?"

Baizhi's scepter is pointed at Wuming:

"If you don't listen, I can only kill you here."

Wuming was happy: "Okay."

Half a minute later, the staff in Momochi's hand was broken, and he fell to the ground with a purple halo on his body.

"You should still remember how badly you lost when we first met, right?" Wuming said, "Why bother?"

Baizhi stood up with his scepter, stopped using spells, swung his scepter, shouted, and actually wanted to fight Wuming with his thin mage body.

Wuming caught the scepter, grabbed Baozhi's neck and lifted him up.

Baizhi's eyes were bloodshot, and his vision gradually blurred as he looked at the ball on the scepter that Wuming had taken away.

He stretched out his trembling hand towards the ball, but failed to touch it and passed out.

When Bai Zhi woke up and turned around, he found himself lying on a bed.

Beside the bed, Nepheli was holding his hand, and next to her stood Michaela and Wuming. A warrior wearing gold and silver armor, and an almost naked gold mask.

Wuming watched Bai Zhi wake up:

"Are you awake?"

Wuming introduced the people beside the bed to Baizhi:

"You said I don't understand the Golden Law. I found a few people who study the Golden Law."

Wuming pointed at D, Golden Mask and Michaela in turn: "Scholar, master, god, there are all levels. You can't explain it to me, but you can always explain it to them, right?"

Wuming smiled proudly: "What do you mean by connections?"

He left the room and said to Michaela:

"This old guy doesn't speak human language. Just tell him and translate it for me when you're done. If there's anything else, we can discuss it again."

Wuming left the room and sat outside to wait leisurely. After a while, Neferi also came out.

"Aren't you going to accompany the old man anymore?" Wuming asked.

"My foster father is fine," Neferi said. "And I can't understand what they said. It sounds overwhelming."

"You are still willing to accept him as your adoptive father." Wuming said.

"He adopted me after all." Neferi said, "When I lost guidance, he gave me guidance."

"What did Baizhi see that made him look like this?" Wuming was curious.

"I don't understand either." Neferi shook her head, "I only know that my adoptive father is always very studious and thirsty for all knowledge. But the deeper he learns, the less I understand him."

Wuming nodded in understanding:

"By the way, how is the damage done to Nimgefu?"

"The damage was not small. Not only the bridge, but also a lot of farmland was damaged. There were also many casualties among the people."

Wuming probably realized how big the disaster was, and his factory in Ningmugefu was also shut down.

Everything happened so suddenly that Wuming never recovered.

It was also because he saw what Bai Zhi seemed to know, that he immediately found Mikaela and others, preparing to quickly pry open Bai Zhi's mouth and interpret the incomprehensible words Bai Zhi said.

Wuming waited expectantly for Mikaela to come out and tell him the current way to break the situation.

After waiting for a long time, Michaela came out, looked at Wuming with a complicated expression, and said:

"Why don't you reconcile with Two Fingers?"

"Ah?" Wuming didn't react.

Michaela sighed:

"We can't convince Bai Zhi. Bai Zhi's understanding of the Golden Law is indeed profound."

"More powerful than you?" Wuming didn't believe it.

"We're going in different directions," Michaela said, "and I've given up on the Golden Law."

"With a deep understanding of the Golden Law, how did you come to the conclusion that reconciliation is needed?"

Michaela pondered for a moment:

"It sounds a bit mysterious. Baizhi is awake now. Let him explain it to you."

"I came to you just because I couldn't explain it to him..." Wuming muttered.

"I can understand, but it's harder to explain. After all, I am a god. D can't understand. Master Golden Mask can understand, but he can't speak." Michaela said, "Momo is more suitable."

Wuming returned to the room and saw Bai Zhi lying on the bed. His expression had indeed softened a little, or to be precise, he was much more depressed, and he didn't look so excited.

"Explain it to me." Wuming said, "Why does Queen Malika have to oppose me when I keep struggling?"

"Return and cause and effect, this is the core part of the Golden Law. It reveals everything in this world." Baizhi said, "The so-called return means that all things converge towards the same."

"If you don't understand, just speak human language." Wuming said, "If you keep doing this, I'm going to doubt your level. You don't understand until you understand yourself. Only when you can make others understand can you truly understand."

Bai Zhi was silent for a moment: "This world didn't have you. Let the faded become the king. It was Queen Malika's previous curse."

"Why is it a curse? Those who fade become kings. Wouldn't the world be peaceful?" Wuming was curious.

"The world will reincarnate and reset." Bai Zhi said, "Everyone is trapped here, and it just starts over and over again."

He looked at his wrinkled hands:

"The accumulated knowledge and the destination of continuous climbing have all disappeared and returned to the starting point."

"Is this going to happen?" Wuming was stunned.

"This will happen. Queen Malika wants us to keep struggling. Even if the faded one becomes the king, the struggle will still continue." Baizhi trembled,

"The world has stagnated, not just after the Shattered War, but from its roots. It will never develop and there will be no future. Everyone, including Two Fingers, can only struggle in this reincarnation."

Wuming still didn’t understand:

"You said I didn't exist in this world, so now that I'm here, will I still be reincarnated?"

Bai Zhi looked at Wu Ming and showed a strange and terrifying smile:

"If you are here, there will be no reincarnation, and the future will only be darkness and silence."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Wuming said, "I don't think I caused much harm - the two-fingered thing a few days ago doesn't count."

"Regression and causation are gravity in meaning." Bai Zhi said, "They are abstract."

Bai Zhi said: "It's like, you are the protagonist of the story, and you are in a story. But the story will end one day, and after it ends, the story will die. The people in the story will no longer change - remain unchanged. It’s no different than death.”

Baizhi grabbed Wuming's armor excitedly:

"I don't want to die, I can't finish it yet. In this world, I still...I still have a lot of knowledge that I haven't understood, and many mysteries that haven't been solved. Do you understand how I feel? That bead is the world, the universe, and the eye. Eyes. The perfect spherical shape is what everyone is pursuing..."

"But after consummation, will it be different and unchanged?" Wuming asked.

Bai Zhi paused, a little tired.

He shrank back and lowered his head:

"You don't understand that perfection is impossible. That's why I can always pursue knowledge. Do you understand? The sense of satisfaction and fulfillment when you gain new knowledge?"

"As if you're full?" Wuming guessed.

"Eating will fill you up, but knowledge will never satisfy you." Bai Zhi said, "Pursuing knowledge is like guiding and blessing, isn't it? Because of infinite knowledge, I can always be Sir Bai Zhi - always know what I want to do. , the road ahead is clear, without any confusion, as if there is blessing and guidance.”

"I've never seen a guide before, so I don't know what a blessing guide looks like." Wuming said.

"Your deepest obsession and mission is that blessed guidance." Baizhi said, "With those, you can feel alive."

Baizhi looked at his old palm:

"But I can't live anymore. You released the death runes. People will get old, sick and die, and they will no longer be able to pursue infinite wisdom."

"Ah, I understand, you are afraid of death, right?" Wuming suddenly realized.

Baizhi was speechless: "I've said so much, you just think I'm afraid of death?"

"Afraid of returning to nothingness, afraid of doing useless work, isn't it just a fear of death?" Wuming said, "Whether it's yourself or the world."

"Aren't you afraid that the world will turn into nothingness?" Baizhi said, "Aren't you afraid that everything will be in vain and there will be no future?"

"I don't understand what story or reincarnation you are talking about." Wuming said, "But if it is really a story, and the story ends, for the people in the story, their world has not ended. They are obviously the characters in the play, why should they? Are you interested in watching a show?"

Wuming thought of something and hugged his chest:

"Patch is indeed a theatergoer. Don't imitate that old thing."

Wuming looked at Bai Zhi:

"And you are so smart, you shouldn't be unable to understand this truth. After all, you are still afraid of death, right?"

Baizhi also stared at Wuming for a while and smiled helplessly.

"Maybe, maybe it can be attributed to fear of death." Bai Zhi said, "Under the golden tree, no one is not afraid of death."

"Don't be afraid of those who live forever." Wuming said.

"They have lost their guidance." Baizhi said. "Those who have guidance are not willing to end their mission."

Bai Zhi sighed: "Maybe you are right. I really want to live for another five hundred years. There are still too many unknowns in this world. For example, how did you get here."

"That five hundred years may not be enough. Patch can't figure out how I got here. I doubt that guy has lived for tens of thousands of years." Wuming said, "That old guy has no interest in living, so he just likes it. Tanith is a bit human."

Bai Zhi lowered his eyes:

"Maybe if Dolores was still alive, I wouldn't be like this."

He raised his eyes and said to Wuming:

"Your companion didn't attract Two Fingers. You interfered too much, and Two Fingers wouldn't tolerate you."

Bai Zhi said: "I advise you to give up changing the border. You can summon the stars with two fingers. If they break up and use all their methods, the border will be annihilated."

"Is this your opinion?" Wuming asked.

"The Eternal City was destroyed like this. It is as powerful as an ancient dragon and can do nothing against the stars." Bai Zhi said, "You want the borderland to live and work in peace and contentment, right? That's the only way. Stars are in the night sky, and humans have no chance of winning."

"Can't you negotiate with Two Fingers?"

"The Two Fingers have no human nature. The purpose of their birth and existence is to guide others. That can be said to be their nature. If you are out of guidance, they will automatically correct themselves. We can use hatred to understand their actions, but In fact, they don’t know what hatred is, they just stick to the established guidance.”

Wuming nodded, thought for a moment, and said:

"By the way, do you want to become immortal?"

"Immortal?"

=======

Neferi was a little bored sitting outside.

"Why is Wuming not healed yet?" Neferi said, "Hasn't he finished talking to his adoptive father?"

"Maybe those concepts are difficult to understand." Michaela said, "The Golden Law has been developed by father and mother for thousands of years, and it is already too profound. Bai Zhi is also quite amazing, and he can actually learn that kind of depth."

"Is it that profound? I'll go and listen too." Nefeli opened the door and went in.

When he entered the door, he saw Wuming putting on his helmet, and the buttons on his armor were a little loose.

Bai Zhi on the bed became even thinner than before, almost like a mummy. She died peacefully with the sheet covering her body.

"What did you do to your adoptive father?" Neferi's eyes widened.

"Don't mind, I know how to transfer the curse." Wuming said.

"Curse?" Neferi was confused.

"He should wake up in a while." Wuming walked out of the room, "I'll go and solve my problems."

Michaela saw Wuming coming out:

"Did he make it clear?"

"I don't quite understand, but I kind of understand what he means." Wuming said, "For the sake of peace at the junction, I have to stop my movements."

Michaela nodded: "It's a pity, but it's not impossible. We can compromise first. We'll negotiate with Two Fingers and let him remove the seal, and you will retreat behind the scenes. I will ascend to the gods, and then implement your plan." road."

Wuming shook his head:

"No need, I've already decided."

"What? You don't really want to follow Two Fingers' plan and die yourself so that Two Fingers can break the seal, right?" Michaela was surprised.

"I can't die at all, how can I die? These two fingers are the same, posing this kind of problem for me." Wuming hugged his chest, "Do you know how to solve the dilemma?"

Wuming's eyes widened angrily: "The one who solved the problem! Come, follow me and kill both fingers."
