Bearing the blue sky

Event Analysis!

Many things have a cause and effect, rather than appearing out of thin air.

Most of the seemingly unrealistic and psychedelic events that occurred in past lives can actually be found to have some underlying causes after analyzing the entire event.

No matter how big or small the matter, as long as you understand its cause, process, and result, you can clarify the entire context of the event.

"Let's start with the outcome of this matter..."

Zhu Ge wrote the words "The whole village is without spirit" on the rightmost circle.

This is the current result.

Correspondingly, the middle part should be the process.

The entire village lost its spirit because of the theft of the god.

Everyone in Jianshan Village remembers that Zhu Ge and Hua Liusha were getting married, which corresponds to the spirit of the God of Happiness being taken away.

The death of Hua Liusha corresponds to the soul being taken by another god.

The two gods are different in nature, therefore the results they exhibit are different.

This is what happened.

The cause is quite simple.

One reason for this was that Mr. Yu left Jianshan Village.

The two experiences led to different reactions from the villagers.

The result was that the entire village lost its spirit.

The cause, process, and result are all correct, and the logic is sound.

only……

"Is there really no problem with the logic?"

Zhu Ge stared at the crooked words on the ground, lost in thought.

Let's deduce the cause from the effect.

When you can't deduce the answer you want by reasoning from cause to effect, try reasoning backward.

In logic, if the original proposition is true, then its contrapositive must also be true.

In other words, if a proposition is true, and B can be deduced from A, then not B necessarily implies not A.

For example, "If you are happy, then laugh" is the original proposition and it is true.

Then the contrapositive of the proposition "If you don't laugh, you're not happy" would also be true.

In his past life, he used this logic to give his girlfriend an example: "If you love me, buy me flowers on Valentine's Day."

It is obvious that the contrapositive of the statement "If you don't buy me flowers on Valentine's Day, then you don't love me" is a false statement, so the original statement is also a false statement.

This is the simplest logical problem derivation.

Now, Zhu Ge feels that many of the original propositions in the events she is encountering are true propositions and are real.

But he sensed something was wrong.

Let's test it by writing out its contrapositive and seeing if it's worth considering.

This allows us to uncover exactly where the problem lies – the cause, the process, and the outcome.

"Begin the derivation..."

Zhu Ge began to write and draw on the ground.

From the moment the gentleman left, to the strange occurrences of Scholar Yu, Hua Liusha, and the villagers...

All of its original propositions are briefly outlined in the form of "If..., then..." or "If..., then...".

Then write out the contrapositives one by one.

Finally, he erased most of them, leaving only a few, and then looked at these propositions with a sense of enlightenment.

"So that means..."

A wave of emotion washed over Zhu Ge, and she murmured thoughtfully, "I see..."

He felt he had figured some things out, but he still needed to verify them.

I looked up and saw that the moon was still bright and gentle.

Zhu Ge has many ideas, many things to do, and many things to prove and verify.

But most importantly, go home and rest your tired body and soul.

I casually glanced around at my surroundings.

Apart from the giant cricket and the nursery rhyme from before, there was nothing unusual.

"Let's head back!"

……

I didn't sleep well.

He was woken up by Yu Xiucai before dawn.

"Zhu Ge! Zhu Ge! Did you come back or not?!"

Yu Xiucai's voice came from outside.

Scholar Yu is here? So early... Zhu Geming woke up groggily, her body aching all over and feeling very sleepy.

The dangers of sleep deprivation are significant. In the short term, it can cause poor concentration, fatigue, dizziness, and irritability, while in the long term, it can lead to endocrine disorders, increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and more.

Other issues include dull skin, age spots, and increased wrinkles...

However, none of the problems are problems; the prerequisite for all problems is to stay alive.

Zhu Ge took a deep breath, clearing the inexplicable and chaotic thoughts from her mind.

Then, relying entirely on instinct, he straightened his upper body off the bed, forming an "L" shape.

"Can't sleep?" the father's mechanical voice rang out.

"The chirping of insects is a bit noisy and annoying," Zhu Ge replied in a formulaic manner.

"Go to sleep, don't let your mind wander." The father said mechanically for a couple of sentences before falling into a deep sleep again.

Zhu Ge then quietly got out of bed and opened the door to find Yu Xiucai, whose chest was glowing faintly.

"It's good that you're alright..." Yu Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief: "I was captured by that insect demon earlier, and after returning home, I forcibly broke free of my restraints and rushed over to find you."

"I'm fine too, but I did learn some information from that insect demon." Zhu Ge walked out the door, gently closed it, and pointed to an open space not far away: "Let's go there and talk under the moonlight."

Scholar Yu nodded.

The two arrived at an open space and squatted down in the moonlight as the sun was setting.

Is the God of Happiness really a god?

As soon as she squatted down, Zhu Ge cut to the chase: "Have you had any contact with the God of Happiness before? Is His appearance related to you, or to your husband?"

Scholar Yu was visibly taken aback for a moment, then sighed: "You are indeed intelligent... I don't know why the teacher said you lack Confucian and Taoist talent..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ge's expression changed, revealing an "I knew it" look.

But he didn't say anything; instead, he seemed to be listening attentively.

"Do you know that after Hua Xiaomei's death, you and I had a long talk by candlelight?" Scholar Yu shook his head, a sigh on his face.

"The master said that he alone could not support the whole thing, and I had not yet made a breakthrough, so he wanted to cultivate a deity to support its growth with the villagers' faith."

"But Hua Xiaomei hadn't become a god yet, so we all thought she had failed..."

So that's how it is!

Zhu Ge nodded slightly, understanding what Yu Xiucai had wanted to say but hadn't said before.

"Then why is Hua Xiaomei a goddess now?" Zhu Ge asked, somewhat puzzled, but not to Yu Xiucai, but to herself.

"Yes! Why?" Scholar Yu frowned deeply, also full of confusion.

Then Zhu Ge casually remarked, "Do you think it's possible... that it wasn't a wedding god, but a wedding ghost?"

Although his expression seemed nonchalant, his eyes were fixed on Yu Xiucai, watching his expression.

Yu Xiucai first stared wide-eyed at Zhu Ge, then his pupils widened slightly, and his mouth opened unconsciously, revealing a look of sudden realization.

"You mean..." Yu Xiucai's eyes still held a hint of shock.

Seeing Yu Xiucai's performance, Zhu Ge felt relieved and immediately lowered her guard even further, writing down each of the propositions she had previously derived:

"This is a method I figured out myself, you can take a look..."

"You see, if we follow my method of deduction, Hua Xiaomei is not a wedding goddess at all, but a wedding ghost."

"And they're on our side!"
