Chapter 441: Retreat as Advance
"Mr. Sara, you let you go into the wild?"
"Yes. ”
This was a bit unexpected by Han Zhuo, Jian Zuoliang asked Li Jiangcheng to go into the wilderness, from their point of view, this kind of cusp moment, of course, is that the more stable the political situation, the more conducive to calming down the restlessness of the supernatural.
The vast majority of the rebellious supernatural beings were originally at the bottom of the ladder themselves, and even if they were officially co-opted, they were not at ease, and even the change of the head of the first position would make them even more worried about whether their previous promises would be changed overnight.
Li Jiangcheng seemed to see Han Zhuo's doubts, and then said: "I didn't understand it very much at first, even if it wasn't for me personally, the situation at home and abroad is changing rapidly, and I don't know what will happen tomorrow, at this moment, we should be more united, how can we do the thing of tearing each other down? As soon as I thought of this, I immediately understood Mr. Sara's intentions. ”
Han Zhuo also understood, and said, "So at this moment, there should be no internal friction between you leaders. ”
"That's right, since there is always one side that needs to compromise, it is better to choose the one that will cause the least damage to the country. ”
"Kind of makes sense. ”
"Mr. Han, do you know that the superpower on the other side of the ocean that rejuvenates the country with science and technology has unexpectedly begun to boycott all cultivators and supernatural beings. ”
"Oh? Why?"
"Many of their biological studies have found that it has a strong effect on the life span and function of the human body, and his basic physics has also ushered in a breakthrough, and even from the perspective of quantum mechanics to explain the great grandmaster's volley flight and air control, they believe that if human beings focus on cultivation, ordinary people will lose the only way to rise, and science and technology is the hope for the benefit of all mankind. ”
"Well, that makes sense. ”
"What? Mr. Han thinks they have a point?"
"Yes, all roads lead to Rome, and as long as the result is the same, the process is nothing, and their purpose seems to be more noble, doesn't it?"
Li Jiangcheng smiled bitterly: "Yes." ”
"Let's talk about something lighter, by the way, I still don't know if I should call you the chief or ......"
Li Jiangcheng hurriedly shook his hand: "Where is there still a chief, if Mr. Han doesn't give up, like a great grandmaster, he will be flattered to call me an old man." ”
"Haha, Old Man Li, what are your plans for the future?"
Li Jiangcheng leaned back on the sofa: "What else can I plan, I am unofficial and light, I have worked hard all my life, and it is time to enjoy my old age in peace." ”
"If you have the chance, don't you want to go back to Kyoto?"
Li Jiangcheng's eyes rarely flashed a glimmer of light, but in the end he shook his head and said categorically: "Mr. Han may not be able to see it, I am actually seventy-nine years old today, my granddaughters are married, and now she is pregnant at home, before the Yu Chenglong incident, I don't remember when I last saw her, Mr. Han, I am an ordinary person, I have lived to be a hundred years old, and it has been twenty years, and I may have to push a wheelchair for more than ten years, and the rest of the time is to accompany my dearest and most loved person." ”
Han Zhuo suddenly fell silent, looking at Li Jiangcheng in front of him, Han Zhuo had no doubt about his words, all the houses in the imperial capital had been emptied three years ago, indicating that Li Jiangcheng had already planned to retire.
But he just said that Yu Chenglong seized power, and there was obvious unwillingness in his eyes, this person was sitting opposite him, but there was no trace of the momentum of the superior, it was completely an old man casually chatting about some of his mediocre deeds in the past.
In addition, it can also be learned from his words that Yu Chenglong did not kill him after gaining power, and even let him return to Nanzhou safely.
Everyone knows that Li Jiangcheng's most solid friend and backing is Jian Youchen, Yu Chenglong, such a cautious person, would let the tiger return to the mountain so easily?
That kind of unwillingness may be just a simple remembrance of the power and glory of the past.
Han Zhuo suddenly asked again, "What if one day in the future, you have to go back to Kyoto?"
Li Jiangcheng was stunned and said, "......Oh? I don't really understand. ”
Han Zhuo said: "I don't believe in Yu Chenglong?"
"Don't believe Yu Chenglong? still don't understand, what do you mean?"
"You will know in the future that this is one thing, on the other hand, I know that Mr. Zora has no last resort, and his advice to you cannot be as simple as the word Shimono, if there is no backhand, it should be that you want to retreat as advance. ”
Li Jiangcheng smiled bitterly, Han Zhuo suddenly realized in his heart, he was deliberately dodging, and asked, "Since you returned to Nanzhou, you haven't been looking for him, have you?
Li Jiangcheng said helplessly: "Mr. Han, put yourself in your shoes, do you think that what I am like now is actually the best result, Mr. Han, as I just said, I am an ordinary person, or to be precise, from your point of view, I am a mortal." ”
Han Zhuogang wanted to speak, but Li Jiangcheng stopped him with his right hand and continued: "It's just that a mortal like me once stood at the peak of power in this country, until now, one of the things I feel most fortunate about is that I can calmly accept the fact that I am an ordinary person, which is ...... It's really hard. ”
"It's hard, but as I said, one day, you might not have a choice. ”
Li Jiangcheng suddenly fell silent, looking at the flower garden outside the floor-to-ceiling window in a daze, Han Zhuo stood up from the sofa: "If I were you, I would also be very conflicted, but the reality is always cruel, isn't it, the more you want something, the more the reality is contrary to you." ”
Li Jiangcheng suddenly sighed: "Then I hope that the time comes...... I'm still strong enough. ”
At the time of parting, Han Zhuo still suggested that Li Jiangcheng had better go to Jian Zuoliang: "There seems to be a tacit understanding between you, you would rather keep in touch with Jian Youchen all the time than go to him, you know that after you find him, it is likely that you will be entangled in state affairs again in the future, and in the same way, he will not look for you, he also knows that if you don't want to, no matter how many ideas he has, it will be useless." ”
Li Jiangcheng still smiled bitterly, saying that he would be cautious, and finally asked an innocuous question: "Mr. Han, do you think that the country on the other side of the ocean, is his approach right, or are we right? I mean, for example, the existing thermonuclear weapons of mankind can also have the consequences of destroying the world, so why bother to find another way, such as cultivation." ”
Han Zhuo smiled: "I can't tell, but I can make an analogy, the same is a wooden stake, you can use an axe to chop it into firewood, or you can use a fine knife to carve it into various shapes like an artist, just like what my parents are doing in the backyard now." ”
