Chapter 152 4. Universal Human Nature

Three hundred miles to the south, it is called Jackal Mountain. There is no vegetation on it, but there is a lot of water below it... There are beasts, whose shape is like a Kuafu and a pig's hair, and its sound is like a hoot. When you see it, there will be floods all over the world. ——"Shan Hai Jing · Dong Shan Jing" There is also a jackal mountain here. There is a beast in the mountain, which looks like an ape but has pig hair. It makes a sound like a human cry. When it appears, there will be floods in the world. Chinese people have an inexplicable fear of monkeys. In the depths of our national subconscious, monkeys are the manifestation of people who have lost their rationality.Whenever encountering the outbreak of "monkey nature" in human beings, things will probably be troublesome.

Be wary of big shots, the story says. Why be wary of big shots? This is because, no matter how great the influence and reputation, there is no difference between a big man and an ordinary person. There is also a beautiful side of human nature and an evil side of animal nature.However, the range of harm caused by the beastly behavior of the little people is limited, at most it will harm family members, wives, neighbors, and the opposite door.This is not the case for great people. When big people get angry, they will call on everyone to take action, killing people and setting fires, bleeding thousands of miles, and leaving countless corpses. This is the so-called "Wrath of the Son of Heaven".Therefore, the correct attitude to treat monkey-like people is to keep them in cages like treating monkeys.

But people are not willing to be locked in a cage. On the contrary, they will strictly prohibit people from mentioning his lack and insufficiency in human nature. In the end, they put the common people in cages and lock them up.It was such a simple idea, but it was twisted into a strange story in the end, leaving us with eternal confusion.
