At the official residence of the village chief of Nuquan Village, Lin Biao and Sun Jie arrived here accompanied by Long.
The final result of the battle between the two sides was not bad. The soldiers suffered some casualties but not serious ones. The poor people did not suffer any damage because they escaped in time. Sun Jie was relieved.
It's just that the next step is to restore order in the village and explain to the villagers what happened, which requires Long himself to put more thought into it. Those are not things that Lin Zhu and the others should focus on.
Long's ambition is indeed great, oh, or it may be more accurate for him to be ambitious.
This battle did not scare him out of courage, and he did not even question the identities of Lin Biao and the others. Instead, after learning that Lin Biao and the others wanted to unify the Sichuan Kingdom, he immediately thought of what to do in order to It would be better to take advantage of the identities of Lin Biao and their unparalleled strength.
If you can't be an emperor, you can be a prince.
And if it is the prince who is closest to the emperor and has the most power.
He knew that no matter what, as long as Lin and Zhu could still use their skills anytime and anywhere, they would be invincible in the Kingdom of Sichuan.
There are many rivers and water veins in the country of Sichuan. Once you master the power of controlling water vein attacks, you will have the power to control the wind and rain.
In this world, strength is respected. Whether these two people are so-called divine envoys or not, it makes no difference to him.
"There are four divine envoys in total, and our other two companions are on their way to Jumu Village." Of course, it was not difficult for Lin Biao to guess what the other party was planning, and he said calmly.
Long frowned and said, "I wonder... who among the four is..."
"We are not divided into superiors and inferiors. Our purpose is for the unification and peace of the Kingdom of Sichuan." Sun Jie replied coldly.
"I was abrupt..." Long said, "In that case, what do you need me to do?"
At this time, he no longer had the same enthusiasm as before. He originally wanted to use the two divine envoys to help him eliminate the obstacle that hindered him in Jumu Village, but he did not expect that that place was also included in the divine envoys' calculations, let alone the divine envoys. There are actually four of them, so the range that he can flexibly handle is very small.
"I said that our goal is to unify the country of Sichuan. Obviously we have no experience in governing a village or even a country. After the country is unified, it will still be managed by you locals. We will eventually go back." Lin Biao said, "If you can manage this country well through consensus, then go ahead. If you can't manage it well, I don't mind changing it to someone else."
With horror and shock, I realized that although this was my home court, I had no room to bargain with the other party.
"We will stay here for a few days. After we leave, I hope to see your sincerity in making friends with Jumu Village. If you can't do it, find someone else to do it." Lin Biao said.
"I understand." Long pondered for a while and then said.
"Oh, by the way, is there a village sandwiched between your two villages?" Lin Biao suddenly asked.
"You're talking about...Rongshu Village?" Long wondered why Lin Biao mentioned that place.
"That's where we will stay in the future. We should support that village and Nuquan Village appropriately and stop bullying them. The specific plan needs to be told to me before I leave. Are there any problems?" Lin Biao asked .
"No problem." Long said nonchalantly.
For Rongshu Village, Nuquan Village and Jumu Village are two despicable plunderers, shameless robbers and brutal killers.
But for these two villages, Rongshu Village is just a dispensable cash machine. It is a small place where the remaining value is gradually drained out and is about to lose all value and can be abandoned at any time. It does not matter to them at all.
It's just that he didn't know why Lin Biao and the others chose that place as their destination, and he didn't even know that Lin Biao and the others came from this small place that he didn't like.
Now that Nuquan Village and Jumu Village are cooperating and win-win, that village is destined to have no sense of existence. If it were not Lin Biao and the others but the two villages spontaneously formed an alliance, I am afraid that this village would have been annexed by them long ago. Of course, like Banyan Tree Whether the village will become better or not is not certain.
"I need an attitude towards the damage caused to Rongshu Village before." Lin Biao added.
This time Long did not respond, but looked at Lin Biao strangely.
"Is there a problem?" Lin Biao asked.
Long didn't understand why these two divine envoys were so concerned about the movements of that ruined village, nor why they were so insistent on making compensation there in this place where the weak and the strong preyed on the weak. In his opinion, lack of strength was the original sin of that village. , and the reason why they became like this is the inevitable result of lack of strength. It is not that I have never extended an olive branch to them, but after the other party's timid rejection, they should have this awareness.
"I can give you time to think about what you should do, but you just need to listen to me as to why you do it. I don't want to talk nonsense to you anymore about this kind of thing, understand?" Lin Biao said coldly. , seems to know exactly what Long is thinking.
Long secretly gritted his teeth, and finally squeezed out a "yes" from his teeth unwillingly.
Leaving him time to deal with the follow-up matters in the village, Lin Biao and Sun Jie returned to the room Long arranged for them.
"Master, are you too tolerant of them?"
Sun Jie usually seldom expresses his opinions when Lin Biao communicates with others. In fact, it is not only him. When Qi Zhen and Lin Biao are around, other people rarely express their opinions unless it is a critical moment of life and death. the opinion of.
After all, they think and want more profoundly than others, and whatever they say has their own purpose.
However, when the two were alone together, Sun Jie couldn't help but ask.
After personally experiencing the tragic situation of the villagers in Rongshu Village, and after Yuzi lost her parents, it was difficult for Sun Jie to treat the village chief of Nuquan Village and these soldiers with a normal heart. In her eyes, these people were undoubtedly executioners. It is understandable that the innocent Sun Jie should not be harmed, but it was definitely not within Sun Jie's expectations to lift it up so high and then drop it gently.
"It is inevitable for this kind of thing to happen in the war years. From our country alone, there are countless such things, not to mention how many of our compatriots died during the invasion by foreign enemies, the invasion of China by the Eight-Power Allied Forces, the Nanjing Massacre, and how many people were displaced and their families were destroyed. ? Even if we don’t count the invasion of foreign enemies, when the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, there were three massacres in Yangzhou and Jiading in ten days, but what happened in the end?"
Lin Biao was more helpless. He didn't expect Sun Jie to fully understand these truths, but from the team's point of view, the unification of the country of Sichuan was what they needed to pay most attention to, and helping Yuzi's revenge would even destroy the Banyan Tree Village. Restoring the peace of the past is just a matter of help. He can tell the other party so many requirements about Rongshu Village, which is considered to be a great effort.
Sure enough, after hearing Lin Biao's words, Sun Jie's expression did not improve, but became even more indignant: "But Yuko's parents died in vain?"
"There is a saying I don't know if you have heard of it. When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent. So let me ask you now, who is the innocent person in this Nuquan Village or that Jumu Village? Which person You have never bullied Rongshu Village, do you think clearly? Maybe the village chief himself doesn’t know, but Long is the village chief, will killing him make the world a better place?"
Sun Jie had the deepest bitterness on her face. She knew that he couldn't answer any of the questions Lin Biao asked. However, she didn't want to let those evil people go just like this, so she said, "But we can't just let it go. .”
"Yes, so I told him to let them give an explanation for the crimes committed by Rongshu Village before, and let them come up with a reasonable plan on how to support Rongshu Village in the future." Lin Biao said.
Sun Jie puffed up her mouth, and for the first time she showed an angry expression like a little tiger, which was a bit cute.
"We are not saviors, and we have no obligation to save them. It is not easy to think more about the suffering people around us from our own perspective. Looking back, think about it, how innocent are the travelers who were murdered passing by Rongshu Village? Or should we avenge them?" Lin Biao said.
"It's really complicated." Sun Jie said helplessly.
"Think about it, the strong wield their swords against the weak, and the weak wield their swords against the weaker. Even if they are decorated with gorgeous clothes, there is essentially no difference." Lin Biao finally concluded, "This is cause and effect."
"This world is made up of countless causes and effects. Where is the root? It's naturally in the system, in the games world. But if you step out and see, where are the people who created this world? Is it the same in the outside world?" Lin Biao murmured to himself Said.
"Master, I don't understand." Sun Jie said pitifully.
"Don't worry about that, but just before we came here, something you said caught my attention." Lin Biao said.
"Which sentence?" Sun Jie asked doubtfully.
"Why do characters from other games enter this game world?" Lin Biao said.
"Is there a problem with this?" Sun Jie asked.
"It's so problematic, I have to think about it."
As Lin Zhuo spoke, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and fell into deep thought.
Lin Biao is a disciple of Buddhism. Although he has never said this, everyone in the team feels it. For example, when he thinks about things now, he will unconsciously fall into this state of meditation, which is a bit like meditation. Like practicing Zen, if he is in the preparation hall, he will take out the wooden fish he carries with him and tap it gently with his own wooden fish.
No one in the team knew what his occupation was, and everyone was too sensible not to delve into it. So seeing her master in this state, Sun Jie walked out quietly and closed the door behind her back.
