Chapter 168: A Request
When he mentioned his granddaughter, the old man's face showed a look of pain, maybe if there was another way, he would not send his own granddaughter into the fire pit. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This bloody fact, like a sharp sword, pierced Guo Zixiang's heart at once.
What's going on?
Why did he think it was the side of the bad guys, but he also experienced a horror that ordinary people could not imagine. The side he used to oppose also had a bitterness that could not be done. He was once defined as an evil guy, but he also defended this humanity in his own way. If that's all the way it is, isn't he also the evil side in a sense?
At this time, listening to the words in the old man's mouth and looking at the faces of the males around him, Guo Zixiang basically believed the old man's words in his heart.
But Liu Yi was still a little unconvinced, he just softened his tone a little and asked flatly.
"Since you've given so much, why didn't you make it all out sooner? Although human beings are weak, when the forces are gathered, they can still burst out with unimaginable power. ”
The old man shook his head with a wry smile and said.
"We've thought about that, too, and that's exactly what we did when the fish-men first appeared to us in two hundred years. But do you know what the consequences are? The fleet that came to hear the news was wiped out, and the Governor who promised to help us hanged himself, and you never know how powerful those guys are until you experience the horror yourself. ”
What a powerful force?
Liu Yi was silent for a while, indeed, although the fishman of Atlantis belongs to the kind of small role that can be passed with a wave of his sleeves. But in front of ordinary people, the combat power of the fish-man is too strong and too strong, incomparable strength, strange spells at hand, and a huge advantage in fighting at home in the ocean.
It can be said that the power of ordinary people may be able to destroy a few fishmen, but it will have to pay an incalculable price. Liu Yi calculated in his heart that if he wanted to deal with the fathead fish he killed with his own hands yesterday, he needed at least one aircraft carrier battle formation, and he was also prepared to be annihilated. Such a battle loss ratio is really a big gap.
But even all these facts have been placed in front of Liu Yi, and countless clues are pointing to one argument, that is, what the old man is doing is right. In fact, it can't erase how mad they were about what they did yesterday.
Liu Yi thought for a moment, then asked.
"In that case, we destroyed the Poseidon Festival yesterday, so what are your plans next? Could it be that if we ruined this sacrifice, the group of guys wouldn't have any other reaction? ”
The old man paused, then said with some satisfaction.
A month later, the Poseidon Festival was held again. Thank you for buying us a precious month for this whole golden beach. ”
After that, the old man actually bowed to Liu Yi.
However, the old man's respectful appearance could not make what he said just now a little recognized by Guo Zixiang and others.
Guo Zixiang didn't care about Liu Yi's reaction, he was a little angry, and he directly stepped forward and said to the old man.
"A month? In just a month, you're going to sacrifice another bunch of ugly fishmen, a bunch of elaborate sacrifices, including a woman? ”
"That's right, this has already given us a respite, a month, enough time for us to complete the preparations."
The old man didn't seem to hear Guo Zixiang's voice, but answered his question seriously.
Hearing the old man's serious answer, Guo Zixiang was angry.
"In a month's time, are you going to bury a man's life again? And then, you're going to kidnap a tourist who came here for a vacation? ”
"No, this time, we have contacted human trafficking organizations in other countries, and everything is prepared, and it will definitely not cause any panic to humanity."
The old man continued to explain earnestly, and it was evident that he was pleased with his plan to buy and sell human beings from other places.
Hearing that the old man regarded women as commodities that could be bought and sold casually, the admiration that Guo Zixiang had just raised in his heart was gone at this moment. After all, it is now a modern society, no longer the chaotic era of the past, how can there be such a terrible thing as human trafficking, which is simply a violation of human human rights. This made Guo Zixiang, who has been growing up in a harmonious society in the future, very disgusted.
Guo Zixiang wanted to say something, but Liu Yi waved his hand at him and motioned him to step back. Seeing Liu Yi's movements, Guo Zixiang obediently retreated even though he still had a thousand words in his heart, because he knew that this time the task was fully responsible for his instructor, and he needed to obey Liu Yi's command in many cases.
Guo Zixiang, who retreated, was pulled by Wang Lan next to him, Wang Lan touched Guo Zixiang's head and whispered in his ear.
"Do you think the world is really as beautiful as what you see? In many places, slavery is even legal, you just don't know it. There are even many people who are willing to become slaves of others, just to survive. Therefore, life is not precious, it just depends on how much it is worth in your heart. In the hearts of some people, it may be the rations for other months in their own homes, but in the hearts of some people, it is heavier than Mount Tai. ”
When Guo Zixiang, who was filled with righteous indignation, retreated to Wang Lan's side and accepted Wang Lan's edification. Liu Yi spoke.
"In that case, you're all ready to go on like this, so I'm curious what you're here for?"
"Oh, nothing, I just don't know if you've ever heard of the name of the so-called mermaid. They are the same kind of fish-people, but they have left their sect before, and now the fish-people are looking for the whereabouts of the mermaids, if you have any news, please let us know, and I will give you a good reward. ”
The old man smiled slightly, and made his intentions clear.
But what he said was so shocking, Guo Zixiang instantly looked up at the other party.
Mermaid, isn't that the little girl who brought me the Dragon Ball yesterday? Not only did you arrest them in a dragnet style, causing the other side to ask us for help, and now the perpetrators are actually asking us for help.
