my stealth fighter

Jiang Chanji had no doubt that the Skinless One did indeed seem like someone who would do such dirty things. It wore human skin and wandered between the two camps, attacking and killing people and then blaming the other side, making the hatred between the two sides worse. The deeper the knot.

Even if we don’t talk about these uncivilized primitive humans, let’s take modern society as an example. If No. 22 disguises himself as a well-known figure in a certain country, openly assassinates the leader of another country who has a rift with each other, and is deliberately witnessed by others, what will happen? What's up? A war will definitely break out. As for the scale of the war, it depends on how strong these two countries are. A world war is also possible.

However, modern society has many restrictions after all, and surveillance is everywhere. The famous person pretending to be No. 22 may have an alibi in other places at the same time. After all, he is a famous person with many social contacts, so it is not easy to successfully deceive. , besides, it is difficult to pass through the security check with weapons on the 22nd to approach another national leader who has a known rift. This situation is only theoretically feasible, but in a primitive society, it is basically 100% successful.

"So, it is an evil spirit that was born in humans, but came out independently and hates humans?" Jiang Chanji asked, "Just like Satan?"

Satan is just a general term that represents the ultimate evil in various myths, but the image of Satan in the Bible is the most prominent, distinct and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The images of demons and monsters in other myths are relatively simple and facial-shape, and are not as cunning as Satan. and vicious.

"Absolutely." The ancestor of Homo sapiens nodded. "Ever since I realized its evil, until my death, I have been thinking about how to eliminate it, but unfortunately, I have never been able to find the answer - how do you eliminate an inherently evil person? What about the things that are part of human nature?”

"Part of human nature?" If Jiang Chanji realized something, the Skinless Man is indeed somewhat similar to Satan, but it is far more direct to the essence of human beings than Satan. It can even be said that it is the evil nature at the root of human beings.

The seven deadly sins represented by Satan - arrogance, greed, lust, rage, gluttony, jealousy, laziness. These psychological diseases that are very common in modern society basically do not exist in primitive society. Primitive society is a primitive public ownership system. Group marriage, this directly excludes most of them. At most, arrogance and rage can have a touch, but these two points are not common in primitive societies, so the skinless people must represent something more fundamental. s things.

"After many years of thinking, I finally recognized it - if Satan represents the purest evil in human nature, then the Skinless Man represents the animal nature that is the opposite of human nature. From the time we evolved from beasts to humans, Human nature that represents goodness is born in our bodies, and as time goes by, we become more and more human and less animalistic." She said, "If you think about it, from tens of millions of years ago until now, human beings have been Aren’t we always moving towards a more civilized and humane level?”

Jiang Chanji wakes up like a dream. What the skinless man does is enough to represent the word "animal nature". It does evil unabashedly and unscrupulously. Satan turns into a white lotus in front of it. Satan is good at deceiving. Since it is To deceive, of course you have to pretend that you are not so bad. The skinless people don't even bother to pretend.

"However, in your words, history always spirals upward." She sighed. "The track of this 'spiral' may be very long, so long that it is despairing, so long that it seems like thousands or tens of thousands of years." Change has grown so long that only by stepping out of history can we see its slow rise... We then entered a plateau period in the historical spiral, and the human nature and animal nature in the body seemed to have reached a balance. Human nature no longer rises, and beast nature no longer declines. "

Jiang Chanji recalled history, which he was not well versed in. During the feudal dynasty for thousands of years, human nature was indeed almost stagnant, and even occasionally regressed, with individual extremely dark eras appearing. Only in modern times, with the emergence of the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution, Human nature has just begun to make a big leap. For example, many extremely cruel punishments in the past have been abolished. In modern times, human nature has become brighter. But if you tell an ancient person thousands of years ago, murder and treason will not be serious crimes in the future. Beheading, cutting in half, languishing, skinning and pulling grass, he probably thought you were telling a joke - this is a concrete manifestation of the spiral of history, and it is difficult for people who are living in history to understand clearly. The ancestor of Homo sapiens refers to the skinless man from afar, "I don't know when it was born. It appeared earlier than I was born. In our era, it contains a mixture of human nature and animal nature. In an era earlier than ours, , the ancestors have more animality than humanity in their bodies, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are real "humanoid beasts". When extraordinary abilities first appeared in human history, the uncontrollable wild animality in the subconscious of the ancestors finally made it born. between heaven and earth.”

"It is powerful and cruel by nature, and has committed countless crimes on its ancestors. However, humans are getting better and better after all. It may not understand the spiral nature of history, but it has a sense of crisis. It knows that if this continues, it will It will become weaker and weaker, and one day it will be completely eliminated. It does not allow this to happen, so it does its best to instigate hatred among us and encourage us to indulge the expansion of the bestiality in our bodies."

She said to Jiang Chanji sadly and remorsefully: "We did very badly, as did my ape-man ancestors and I. I also once had a hot head and ordered the massacre of unarmed women and children...I knew then that our generation It is impossible to eliminate it, but you did a good job, you did a good job, you did not repeat the mistakes we made back then, and you did not let your reason be swallowed up by the beast in your body."

When the ape-man ancestor heard her order to massacre women and children, he roared heartbroken: "That's right! You know everything, but what did you change? What did you do? I didn't see you showing mercy on the battlefield!"

The ancestor of Homo sapiens looked firmly at his old opponent and said: "Yes, after understanding this, I made up my mind to launch a general attack, because the only thing I can do is to defeat you as soon as possible and end that troubled world as soon as possible! Only in this way, it There is no room for further provocation!”

Her powerful words made Jiang Chanji even more awe-inspiring. This was indeed the most urgent temporary solution at the time. Since it could not be eliminated, its living space could only be compressed.

"I succeeded. It was the first unification in human history, the unification of the race. This must have frightened it. It had never seen anything like this. It thought its death was near, so it chose to escape - if it Knowing in advance the tens of thousands of years of history that will follow, and knowing that this is the only brief unification of mankind, and that it will soon be even more fragmented according to civilization, country, nation, religion, etc., it will definitely not escape." She was both proud and regretful.

Jiang Chanji is really... just beating her chest. I just regret that human lifespan was generally short at that time, and the ancestors of Homo sapiens were likely to be killed or fatally injured in the final battle. Otherwise, it would be unimaginable if God lent her another 500 years. How much history will change.

Suddenly, a sharp and gloomy voice sounded like nails scratching on frosted glass: "Thank you, it's not too late for me to know now."
