Chapter 405 Eating, a natural sin
I hang up the communication with Orochimaru. Although it was late at night, Hinata was not sleepy at all.
In the Three Holy Land, the Wet Bone Forest lineage is single and lonely, and all the small slugs are the clones of the slug fairy. The toads in Miaomu Mountain also seem to be indifferent to the world. In addition to providing Jiraiya with the information about the Prophetic Son, they basically do not interfere in the affairs of the ninja world.
However, Longdi Cave is extremely aggressive. Once people who go to Longdi Cave to practice immortal arts, they will become their food if they fail.
Just every time Wanshe is sent out, he will ask Orochimaru to provide him with sacrifices.
Although the food chain law in nature is that higher organisms eat lower organisms, Hinata is still feeling a little uncomfortable as a human being.
People must eat when they are alive, and "eating" itself is a kind of killing.
In Hinata's previous life, many people advocated the declaration that "humans should love animals." However, animals such as pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese always appeared on the human table, and no one ever shouted a word of injustice for them.
Cats and dogs are loved by humans as pets because humans’ lonely hearts need to be filled and humans need to accompany them, so the term ‘pet’ appears.
As far as Hinata knows, in ancient times, oxen was forbidden to be slaughtered. In some dynasties, slaughtering plowing oxen would violate the law and even lose their lives.
人类的天性便是如此.
When cattle are needed to plow the land, banning cattle killing will be written into the law.
But when humans do not need cows, the cows are raised in groups and slaughtered in groups. Then they are processed by chefs and placed on the dining table for everyone to use.
For humans, whether a thing is important or not is actually only two relationships: "need" and "no need".
Treat it as a treasure when you need it, and discard it as a piece of waste when you don’t need it.
Pets, protected animals, and rare animals appear precious because of their needs. And those animals that are not needed will not care about their lives or death.
Hinata knew in her heart that as other species different from humans, the snakes in the Dragon Cave seemed to be very normal for them to "eat people".
But Hinata, as a human, cannot accept such facts.
Toads in Miaomu Mountain still eat insects. If the insects have the same wisdom as humans, do you see if they hate toads?
‘Eating’ is sin, but it is natural…because you will die if you don’t eat.
When facing Urashi before, Hinata was very resistant to converting him into a chakra fruit and eating it, maybe because Urashi's appearance is similar to that of humans!
This time, facing the Dragon Di Cave, even though Hinata knew that their wisdom was no less than that of humans, she felt no resistance in her heart.
This is why Hinata can't sleep.
Hinata was reflecting on whether her mental state of Urashito was a bit hypocritical.
To be fair, as an alien, Urashi is completely different from humans in the ninja world. Even in Urashi's opinion, he may not even think that he is a ‘human’.
After traveling to the ninja world, Hinata never shy away from the 'kill'.
To become a ninja, you will inevitably have to kill people.
Hinata once thought that killing people is different from eating people. Hinata can eat all the animals in the world without any psychological burden, but she cannot accept eating people by herself.
Hinata loved eating fried chicken in her previous life, but when she thought of tens of thousands of chickens in the chicken farm, they were destined to be eaten by people from birth. Humans hatched them from eggshells, then raised them, and finally placed them on the dining table.
But I feel so uncomfortable, will Hinata stop eating from now on?
In Hinata's previous life, perhaps because her life was so good, some people always think that slaughtering animals is very cruel, but they taste meat more fragrant than anyone else.
“蛇叔……”
雏田又一次联系上了大蛇丸.
Orochimaru: “…”
"There is a very serious question I want to ask for, it is about life..."
Hinata was straightforward and her tone was not as funny as before, but asked seriously and seriously: "What do you think all things in this world are? What do humans mean?"
"You have killed so many people in human experiments. In the ninja world war, every ninja has killed people. The fourth generation of the four generations who Konoha calls a hero, even killed countless people."
"Is it possible that just because the meaning of murder is different and the starting point of murder is different, some people can be forgiven, or even praised as heroes, while some people will be labeled as 'evil'?"
Orochimaru rarely got interested. Instead of talking about gossip with Hinata, Orochimaru prefers to discuss the philosophy of life, especially the meaning of life.
"Hahaha..."
Orochimaru's hoarse laughter was a little gloomy, and his tone was playful: "I did not read you wrongly, Hinata...you are different from those people."
Hinata asked again: "Uncle Snake, what do you think about these things?"
Hinata is indeed a little confused. Although Hinata has killed many people after becoming a ninja, she didn't take it seriously afterwards. But every time I think of these things, I feel a little confused.
Orochimaru's pair of snake eyes flashed with his gloomy tone: "Life itself is of no value, but as long as people are still alive, they will definitely find interesting things, and call it an ideal and strive for life."
"The reason you have these troubles is that your mind is still bound by rules. Those who create rules use rules to restrict you to achieve what they want to achieve."
Hinata retorted: "But if there are no rules in this world, wouldn't it be a mess?"
Orochimaru sneered, his tone was disdainful, and even said a little sarcastic: "For people like us, what is the difference between peace and chaos in the world?"
"Naughter wants to protect Konoha and protect the Fire Kingdom. That's because Naruto enjoys the rights, so he has to assume the responsibility of 'protection'."
"And 'responsibility' is itself imposed on you by others!"
Speaking of this, Orochimaru's tone was slightly cold, and he seemed to think of something unhappy.
“日向家的大小姐……”
"I enjoyed the status of the young lady of the Hinata family, so you have the heart to protect the Hinata family. Maybe it's a bond, or maybe it's not wanting to lose the privileges of the Hinata family's heir..."
"You think it is your responsibility to protect the Hyuga family, but for Danzo, it may be his responsibility to control or even destroy the Hyuga family."
"Do you, bound by responsibilities and rules... really have the courage to get rid of these?"
Hinata was silent for a long time after hearing this. Orochimaru's words seemed to be rebellious, but they also had some truth.
As long as you are not bound by rules or by responsibility, there is no difference between chaos in the world and peace in the world.
我还是我,这就够了.
But humans are social animals, and their lonely hearts need to be filled. One person is the most terrifying thing in the world.
雏田好奇的问道:“蛇叔,你孤单吗?”
“孤单……或许吧!”
Under the moonlight, Orochimaru stood quietly in the woods, and the surroundings were dark like ghosts. The bright moonlight reflected on Orochimaru, as if it was standing opposite to the entire world.
人与世界之间,是一道巨大的鸿沟.
