Lost Narrative Poetry

"Forget it, I don't understand what you're talking about, it's still too far away..."

Naturally, Yakumo Purple fell into deep thought, but after a moment, she shook her head and said with a slight regret.

"People always have something to pursue. What if it comes true..." Xia Ran smiled slightly and calmed down her mood, not letting those chaotic thoughts affect her.

After all, just like Yakumo Murasaki said, all this is still too far away.

"I'm not a human anyway." The monster girl's eyes were wandering. She gently put down her parasol and raised her fan to gently cover the lower half of her beautiful face.

"..."

"..."

What a very convincing answer!

Xia Ran shook his eyebrows helplessly and said: "Actually, if you are serious about it, Zi you are actually closer than me. After all, you also know that although everything flows out from the original root, and then branches one by one like a tree. Differentiated into various forms..."

"So in theory, all concepts of things, everything, everything, and all existence can ultimately be traced back to the first cause of the original reason for existence... But there are always some existences that are innately closer to the root and are the first to differentiate. The branches coming out..."

Tao gives birth to one, gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.

"All things" is the lowest concept, which is the concrete and physical form of all tangible and intangible phenomena after the roots have been differentiated countless times;

Then "one", "two", and "three" are the process by which "Tao" creates all things. Although they are not "Tao" itself, they are naturally more metaphysical than the specific lower-level things that have been differentiated countless times. The concept of innateness is closer to the original cause.

"Because of the power of my realm?"

The monster girl curled her lips, knowing what this person was referring to.

"Yes, just like talents, qualifications, and talents, they have been determined since birth. They are often described as so-called bloodline and genes, but in fact, they belong to a deeper direction that is the cause of existence. .”

Xia Ran said calmly:

"If there are past lives, then there should be past lives of past lives, right? Even from a scientific point of view, there is a theory of reincarnation. All molecules will flow, and everything can be converted into other things..."

Therefore, even if you were not a person in your previous life, you will not even be a thing in your next life.

But the line of existence will continue forever, and it must be traced back to some initial cause that determines the existence of things.

"That is the so-called origin. In the whirlpool of all sources, a certain directionality occurs like lightning. It is innate and will never change. The essence that is more essential than the previous life has been determined innately..."

Xia Ran said this in a slightly sour tone, looking at the blond monster girl with subtle eyes.

"As a monster in this realm, your origin is very close to the original nothingness, so you have this ability to get close to the source... From this point of view, Zi, you are actually closer to that place than me."

That's why magicians in this realm behave so horribly. Even illusory existences like mirror flowers and moonlight can easily disturb the law of cause and effect.

Even Xia Ran now is not sure that he can beat the state of fusion between himself and Yakumo Murasaki. That state is like an extension of his own limbs, and everything in the world seems to be the same as himself, both inside and outside, a powerful feeling of one body and two sides. It's really overwhelming.

"What's the use of getting close? Buddhism also says that everyone has Buddha nature, but can it really make everyone realize Buddhahood? This is obviously impossible."

However, Yakumo Murasaki did not feel very happy about this. She just replied casually: "As long as we can't reach the root, then everything is the same. Metaphysical specific things and metaphysical superior concepts are actually the same..."

"People always have dreams... Well, forget it, Zi, why are you so stupid..."

Xia Ran twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly. He was originally going to continue using the previous routine, but thinking about the other party's answer not long ago, he wisely stopped. Because it is of no use, the other party is very confident and well-founded.

This monster Xianzhe seems to be completely hopeless. It is clear that in the memories he has shared, she has been a feared monster for thousands of years.

Not to mention extremely powerful, he has reached the pinnacle of great monsters after all, and his wisdom is even more frightening...

She foresaw the decline of the fear of heaven and earth and the mysterious decline early on, so she also started to make plans early to find a final resting place for inhuman things. In order to achieve such a goal, she did not know how many people were killed by borrowing knives and ruthlessly. Guys who disagree.

For example, because she could not convince most of the monsters who only had muscles in their brains, she took the initiative to start a war between the monsters and the moon, and easily achieved the goal of eradicating dissidents.

Although later, with the enlightenment of civilization, people gradually believed in science and intelligence, and eliminated the dark parts from life as superstition. The history of humans and monsters turned a new page, and everything proved that Yakumo Purple is correct.

However, the skill and character she displayed still made countless people fear, respect and fear her, so she was called the "Monster Sage".

It's a pity that although she is such a fascinating legendary figure, what Xia Ran sees now is that she only has a dark belly and bad idler or salty qualities... She has been exposed to the sun for one hundred and eighty days. Producing delicious food is really worse than Yuyouzi——

After all, Youyouzi is still very pursuing and action-oriented in some aspects.

So, how did she become like this? After the establishment of Gensokyo, in just a few hundred years, her comfortable life made her lose all the moral integrity she had accumulated over the past thousands of years?

Xia Ran felt a little sad, and even hated the fact that iron could not be made into steel. After all, for him who had mastered Yakumo Murasaki's entire life and all the memories and experiences, there really was no secret for him as a great monster in the realm.

So from his perspective, he could clearly see how the monster girl lost all her moral integrity little by little. From the strength and wisdom in the past, she gradually turned into such a sinister and terrible appearance...

"Are you thinking about something bad again?"

The blond monster girl suddenly felt a chill, as if someone had deeply slandered her from the soul level.

"No..." Of course he would not admit this. Xia Ran sighed and diverted the other party's attention, "Okay, now that you see Zi, it's time for you to make a decision, right? Which piece of land are you planning to enclose? Directly and Let me tell you."

"Huh?" The monster sage was slightly startled, "Do you know my plan?"

"I know, after all, if you don't have any ideas, then after reading my memories, you will already know what I have gained. There is no need to come for another on-site inspection, right?" Xia Ran thinks this is obvious.

"Oh, then I won't be polite..."

Saying this softly, the blond monster girl covered the lower half of her face with the fan in her hand, her crooked eyes full of smiles.

"Can you choose with me?"

"Well, except for those two that are not suitable for your interference..." The Creator in the void nodded calmly, just stretched out his hand and gently circled, pointing out the two blue planets surrounded by the false solar system, indicating that These two are exceptions.

He probably also knows what Yakumo Purple wants to do, so these two worlds are naturally not suitable for her to interfere.

"Well, what a stingy man. Why can Moriya Shrine interfere, but I can't..."

Yakumo Purple actually had no intention of choosing those two targets, but she still had bad taste. She pretended to be resentful and complained like this.

During her recent inspection, she naturally discovered that in one of the worlds, Dongfeng Valley Sanae was talking to Mordred.

Perhaps out of the professional habits she had developed in the past, she peeped... ahem, watched the discussion between the two girls, so naturally she knew very well that the blue and white witch was enthusiastically preparing to preach in another world, and she also got With Mordred's permission.

This is the gap. Reimu is probably sitting in front of the shrine steps with a cup of tea, sighing "Today is a peaceful day in Gensokyo", and waiting for the evening banquet to start...

They are both mikos, so why is there such a big gap? Wouldn't Lingmen feel ashamed for being such a salty person?

——Yakumo Murasaki couldn't help but worry about Hakurei Miko, who was too lazy to cook.

But this is not the point. The point is that it is not that Mordred allowed Moriya Shrine to enter, but that Xia Ran did not object... Isn't this preferential treatment?

"It's different. They are mainly for preaching. They have little influence and are different from what you want to do." Xia Ran was not affected by Yakumo Purple's pretending to be tender at all, and he didn't even raise his eyelids.

"Hey, I really don't understand the style... But forget it, people like you will probably never be liked by girls in your life, so I won't argue with you, and thank me..."

Yakumo Purple exhaled, quickly stretched out her hand, and pointed in a certain direction.

"Then let's take that one. It doesn't require too much investment. Just use one to test the water first... If it fails, there won't be any loss. How about it, am I good enough for you?"

"..."

"..."

"That's what I said, but I just picked the largest and most complete time and space. It's not convincing at all." The corners of Xia Ran's eyes twitched a few times. Zi was really too good to him, and he couldn't bear it. I want to be moved.

However, this was really not much of an investment. He directly manipulated his various management rights as an authority, and instantly locked onto the rapidly evolving world and replaced it in front of him.

It was as if time and space were flying by at high speed, whizzing by like this, a huge crystal wall shell ball quickly approached from far away and appeared in front of Yakumo Murasaki.

It is a huge shell ball containing a "planetary system" inside. It seems to be simulating the star system of the real universe. It is a multi-structured plane world formed by splicing multiple time and space, and it has been perfected to a certain extent.

The monster sage looked at it with great joy, looking through the blurry crystal wall-like shell at the plane world she was going to use for experiments.

In the time evolution accelerated by someone's own thoughts, fallen leaves float to the earth one after another, seeds sleep under the white snow, flowers bloom and quickly wither, in the shadow of the flowing light, the star map is constantly changing, and in the sea water Mountains rise, and the land sinks and turns into the sea.

Just like in some programs, the enhanced shots are obviously accelerated and fast-forwarded, fully expressing the feeling of time rushing.

In this process, species rise and fall, civilization evolves, history changes, everything is developing at an accelerated pace. For countless creatures in those worlds, the turning point that determines civilization, the magnificent changes that affect hundreds of generations of history, often only happen in a blink of an eye.

"In fact, compared to what you think, I suggest you throw those monsters into a plane without intelligent creatures..."

At this time, Xia Ran considered giving his own suggestions. He knew that Yakumo Murasaki felt that he saw the way out for the next stage of Gensokyo, but he always felt that this monster sage also fell into some kind of cognitive limitations. middle.

"Why?" The blond monster girl glanced at him.

"You have always needed fear or faith to maintain your own existence and strength. This form of existence cannot last long..."

Xia Ran gave an example: "I have talked with Kanako and the others before. Kanako used to collect faith only to assist herself, but never relied on it. As for Suwako, it was because she was born without a soul and she was purely composed of faith. The indigenous gods have nothing to do..."

"In an environment without fear, they will all die." The monster sage frowned slightly.

"Life will always find a way out..." Xia Ran scratched her cheek and couldn't help complaining, "And Zi, you have to consider the actual situation. Even the most ordinary demon wolf in the magic forest, put these In this world, those body shapes are..."

How should I put it, it was simply crushed.

Just like Gulliver in Lilliput, these "prehistoric beasts" that are hundreds of meters long and can easily climb mountains and cross rivers and oceans are fine if they are few in number, but if there are too many, they will definitely be harmful to the little ones. It has caused a devastating blow to the ecology of our country.

It itself cannot last long. If the little creatures in the plane world become extinct like this, no one will be able to continue to provide them with fear or faith.

It is impossible to let them develop like locusts, so they must find their own way out... Because the versions are not compatible at all, and the style of painting is completely wrong, we can only give them some territory to develop on their own.

Instead of roughly putting them into the already developed sandbox system, that would only cause both parties to collapse and perish at the same time.

"Let me think about it first..."

The monster sage did not make a decision rashly, but just thought about it.

But soon, she seemed to remember something, raised her head and looked at the other party playfully: "Speaking of which, you actually have a simulated world, remember?"

"...Remember." The young man blinked and said noncommittally, "What's wrong?"

"Because of the speed of time, and because you outsourced that simulation world, you haven't paid attention to it for a long time, right?" Zi's smile was a little sinister, like a little fox who stole a chicken, "It seems that I forgot to tell you, That world is in some trouble right now..."

"What kind of trouble could there be?" Xia Ran didn't care and was not easily fooled. "The real time has not passed long, and you are still watching, right? If something big happened, Zi, you would have told me immediately. Well, how could you forget?"

"Humph, you are very confident, but what if I tell you that someone found the Easter egg you left?"

"Are they the same people as me?"

"Huh? You know?" Yakumo Purple was not very happy. She was also planning to give the other party a "surprise". Why did it look like the other party had everything under control.

"It's just a guess, but they should be the only ones. After all, if the aborigines find the Easter egg, they won't understand what it is. To them, it is either weird or sacred. Anyway, they are superstitious, so naturally they will not feel anything wrong. Watch the impact of the collapse..."

The Creator put his hand on his chin and said thoughtfully, with a very calm expression.

"As for players, they definitely don't have the strength to find those places at the moment. To say the least, even if they found them, they would just laugh it off. At most, they would post a post on the forum to brag, because for them, that world is It’s just a game, and it’s normal to find Easter eggs that are incompatible with the worldview…”

"——So, it's probably just my colleagues, right?"
