Chapter 243
"The parable of the lotus of forgetfulness in the "Past of the Sun and Moon"——" "
The lotus flower that forgets sorrow when it sees, and on a long journey, the captain looking for the way home meets people who feed on this lotus, some stay, and some resist this temptation."
"Living is an endless sea of suffering, we are just looking for a way back."
Su Yu paused: "To interpret this parable, we first need to understand the meaning of the nouns in the text.
"What is a lotus?"
"It's obviously a temptation."
"Referring to the previous account in the Sun and Moon Past, temptation refers to forces other than Tivat."
"Considering the background of the times when "Sun and Moon Before" was written, it can be clear that temptation refers to the power of the world tree."
"Although Sky Island and the World Tree are foreign, the original Sky Island arrived in Tivat first, created all things, transformed Tivat, they are the masters of Tivat, and they have protected the first humans through a wonderful era."
"In contrast, the second divine throne (world tree) that came in the second age is foreign."
"And then, what do the captains and these people refer to?"
"There can be two understandings."
"First, Abrak-Abe Ryoshihisa (Captain) and the people of Fuchishita."
"But let's see."
"In the third volume of the White Night Country Collection, there is such a parenthetical explanation."
(The book has been constantly revised and deleted with the times, and the title has changed from the land of the sea abyss to "the country of the everlasting world", and then to "the country of the white night.") Later, because of the curtain of the sea, the people under the abyss returned to the sea.
"That is to say, the people of the Yuanxia Palace later returned to the sea with the help of Haiyuan."
"Therefore, the captain who is looking for his way home in the parable of the lotus flower is not from the Fuchishita Palace."
"Then there is only one explanation, the captain refers to Fañez, while the others refer to the four consuls."
"The whole translation is: after the defeat, Fañez lost control of Tivat, and they wanted to regain the land of Tivat and the faith of the people."
(One might ask, didn't you say that Fañez fell in the Great War?) You know, the demon gods are all immortal, how can they be completely annihilated if they are as strong as Parenes? Her true body has fallen, but it can appear in other forms, as will be discussed later)
"And this inference has also been verified in the era of the ceremonial crown we talked about earlier."
"After the defeat, Sky Island cultivated sky messengers in order to save people's faith, trying to make people believe in Fañez again, but people questioned the original Sky Island and even wanted to land on Sky Island."
"Look, some of them have traces to follow, and they are closely related before and after, in fact, "Sun and Moon Before" records a complete story."
"But non-great wisdom cannot be interpreted."
Many listeners:
"..."(emmmm, Mr. Su, you are very powerful, but you can make a face, how can you boast of yourself... ）。
Su Yu: Ahem, I'm sorry, it's a little floating.
...
"Okay, just kidding, let's get back to business."
"Sky Island wants to regain Tivat and the faith of the people."
"At this time, the World Tree threw an olive branch, that is, temptation."
"In the face of temptation, some people stay, and some resist it."
"People are referring to the four major rulings."
"Then, in the face of the temptation of the victor world tree, who of the four ruling powers chose to stay (compromise), and who resisted the temptation?"
"There are two who choose to compromise, Space Ruling, the Sky Moon Goddess Baal, the Death Goddess Ruling, the Akatsuki Goddess Asmode, and Life Ruling, the Star Si Baimon chose neutrality."
"The one who chooses to resist is the Great God of the Immortal World, the reign of time, the goddess of the Profound Moon, Ishtaru."
"Here again the hole in front is perfectly filled."
"Why did Fañez and the three shadows not respond when they were hunted by the dragon heir in the Yuanxia Palace, only the Great God of the Immortal World, Time reigned, and Ishtaru saved them."
"Because at that time, the true body of Fañez had fallen, and he could only appear in an incarnation, and the strength of the incarnation was far inferior to the real body, which we can know from Comrade Zhongli and the Rock King Emperor."
"The difference is that Comrade Zhongli's true body has not fallen, he can switch between the Rock King Emperor and Zhong Li at will, and even change into the Rock Dragon form, as long as he wants."
"Farnes' true body is not yet an opponent of the World Tree, let alone an incarnation?"
"The answer came out, it was not that Fañez did not respond to the prayers of the Yuanxia Palace, but that her avatar was powerless in the face of the powerful World Tree."
"This is also why she didn't let the people of Fushita Palace return to the surface later, because the surface has been controlled by the World Tree, why come back?" Accept the rule of the World Tree?
"As for the three shadows not responding, it is easy to understand, because they have the mind to compromise with the World Tree, and naturally it is impossible to respond to the Yuanxia Palace."
"Although Yuanxia Palace returned to the surface with the help of the big snake later, it is already another story."
"Only the great god of the everlasting world, time ruled, Ishtaru responded to the palace of the yuanxia, remained loyal to Fañez, and chose to refuse and resist when facing temptation."
"As a result, Ishtaru became the first of the four great consuls to die."
"Baimon, who chose neutrality, died second, but she herself was the ruler of life, and later reborn as Little Paimon."
"The truth is cruel and dark, but it is the truth."
"About the three goddesses of the Moon Palace and the division of the stars, it is clearly recorded in some materials and legends in Tivat."
"In the distant past, there were three bright moons hanging in the moon sky."
"They are three sisters, their lifespan is longer than that of the rock gods, and their birthdays are older than the rock foundation of Liyue Port."
"The moon is the daughter of poetry and song, and the king of the moonlit night, who rode swiftly in a silver chariot, and every passing month a sister took the throne of another, and so on and so forth, until the day of the great calamity strikes."
"The three rounds of Haoyue have the same lover, who is Si Chen's star, and only the moment when the white night and night intersect, one of the three sisters can cross the fading star and enter the dormitory of the morning star." (The Star Division is Paimon, so the four Lily sisters can only be said to be able to play)
"The three sisters pay the same affection to their only lover, just as they do to each other, that was before the catastrophe of the subversion of heaven and earth." (Very good, it turns out that the three sisters also have deep affection for each other, which is very much Ha You)
After retelling this legendary record, Su Yu interjected: "It can also be seen from here that the battle for the divine seat is won by the World Tree. "
The cataclysm of the subversion of heaven and earth - indicating that the rule of Sky Island has been overturned."
...
"Later, the calamity overturned the king's high car and destroyed the palace of Xingluo, and the three sisters in the night sky turned against each other, and had to say goodbye to death, but only one left a pale corpse, reflecting a cold light..."
Su Yu sighed softly: "After listening to this text, combined with the record of "Sun and Moon Before".
"I think everyone has the answer in their hearts."
"Among the three sisters, Akatsuki and Kugetsu chose to compromise with the World Tree, while the goddess Ishizuki Ishtaru chose to continue to resist, and the three had a disagreement in decision-making and became enemies."
"I have to say goodbye to death-
" "It is not clear here whether Ishtaru was killed by Akatsuki and Kuzuki or by the World Tree."
"I personally tend to be killed by the World Tree."
