After this evening, the officers and soldiers rushed to the top of the cottage, in fact, they also encountered a wave of small-scale resistance, and the fighting was still going on the mountain roads around the cottage, and several clashes broke out between the rebels who broke through and the local official army.

But if you talk about the situation in the whole cottage, it is like a floating island in a hell that is simply to test human nature.

Killings between fellow comrades, cannibalism for heads, have been going on, and people who want to make the chaos even more chaotic and fish in troubled waters set fire to the mountains.

In order to avoid the soldiers under his command from being too seriously injured in this frenzied situation, Zhang Rui ordered some soldiers to just surround the rebels' cottage and not attack, so that the people on the entire cottage were left to fend for themselves.

The evil of human nature is raging throughout the island.

And outside the cottage, the breakouts, the pursuits, the lonely, piecemeal battles have been going on in flames.

That night, looking at the various survivors who rushed down to the island, Zhang Rui couldn't help but sigh with his lieutenant: "My generation of soldiers, I believe that human nature is evil, but how evil human nature is, I don't know at this time." ”

Relatively speaking, the scholar from the capital, at this time, in his opinion, is really like a demon, and the deputy general couldn't help but say in a deep voice at this time: "It's just such a method, it's too vicious, I'm afraid it will hurt the heavens and the peace!" ”

A means that while bringing cold to the enemy, it also brings chill to one's own people, if Hao Jingcheng knows this, he doesn't know what he will think in his heart.

It's just that when Zhang Rui sighed like this, on the mountain road near the cottage, between the flames and the wreckage, there was also a carriage that was slowly moving.

Yang Feiyan stood at the front of the carriage, remembering that a few days before Hao Jingcheng was about to make a move, he was sitting under the eaves of Lijiazhuang, holding the bracelet as a rosary and spinning.

"When I was young, I often heard people say that people are inherently good, but after this time, I don't believe it." Yang Feiyan muttered there, while Hao Jingcheng, who was also looking at this piece of water and fire, frowned and glanced at him.

"Feiyan, human nature is originally neither good nor evil." After a moment, Hao Jingcheng said softly.

Yang Feiyan stared at Hao Jingcheng in front of him, shook his head, and signaled that he didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence.

Hao Jingcheng explained, "You used to think that human nature is good, but that is not necessarily right, if such a thing makes you feel that human nature is evil, then your understanding is also a little narrow." Human nature is chaotic, there is no good and no evil, but it is not firm, it is easy to be tempted, and what it will become depends on external forces. It is not easy to get to this point, but there are no ways to make people better. If you think that human nature is inherently good or inherently evil, it is the idea of cowards who don't want to work hard at all, they have no ideas and no ego, so they have to push back to the essence. ”

Witnessing the collapse of the cottage, in the eyes of everyone, Hao Jingcheng's mood is not necessarily good, he did not focus on these ordinary people in the cottage, and what he was waiting for at this time was also some more critical information.

After thinking for a while, Yang Feiyan said softly: "I remember." ”

Hao Jingcheng couldn't help but smile when he saw Yang Feiyan say seriously, sat on a chair at the bow of the boat, and looked at the island of fire and chaos in the distance.

Seeing this, I thought of the preciousness of order and the greatness of morality, the spiritual civilization, culture, and morality of a world, all of which add up to protect all people, and morality is followed by law. Once they collapse, they can easily become like this. No matter how far we can manipulate human nature, you and I should be in awe of human nature, culture, and morality. Hao Jingcheng said lightly, these words can really be regarded as his feelings.

The carriage gradually moved forward, passing a breached cottage, the flames burning on the gate of the gate had not yet been extinguished, and from a distance, there were more than a dozen corpses piled up on the ground.

Hao Jingcheng couldn't help but shook his head, looked at the little fire in front of him, frowned, and said in a low voice: "I have actually seen many people before, and they always think that they are very powerful, clamoring for character, and they want to kill decisively, and they don't know what virtue is." This kind of person is actually the lowest type of person in the world, with neither strength nor wisdom, and the only thing they have is arrogance and stupidity. ”

After saying this, he sighed again, stretched out his finger and pointed to the flames on the cottage, and said: "I only know a little about my immediate interests, but I can't see my own vulnerability." In fact, it is not the people who are really bound by morality, those who are capable, powerful and wise are the ones who are most restrained. ”

Yang Feiyan stood next to Hao Jingcheng, listening to what he said, but she became even more puzzled.

Hao Jingcheng thought for a while and said: "Once the thing of morality is released, ordinary people will be complacent with petty profits, they don't know that at this time, those big people, every time the shackles are let go a little bit, they will hurt the interests and lives of thousands of people." Human nature is a very interesting thing, but also very cruel, good and bad are mixed together, if you want good things, then you have to work hard, always feel that it has nothing to do with yourself, maybe one day, morality drops to a certain level, there is nothing. ”

Yang Feiyan nodded and said, "I really want to understand what you said, the emperor's brother once said a sentence, called the law of twenty-eight, which seems to mean that in this country, two out of ten occupy the wealth of eight out of ten, and eight out of ten people should be managed by two out of ten people?" ”

The light flowed, shining brightly and darkly, the whispers of Hao Jingcheng and Yang Feiyan were soaked in the night, and the people around them seemed quiet.

A fast horse came galloping from a distance, and it was Ah Si who brought information.

"Not long ago, it was the Holy Duke Li Lei who broke through on the side of the cottage, and several ships of the local officials and soldiers wanted to intercept them, but they were caught off guard. I've asked some of the captives...... Sure enough, as you said, the strong man broke his wrist. Before Ah Si could get off the horse, he hurriedly reported to Hao Jingcheng.

The news that he had been waiting for finally came, Hao Jingcheng couldn't help but stand up a little excited at this time, and asked, "How many people have broken through?" ”

"In the end, less than 4,000 people were entangled." Aisi said, "In the past few days, Li Lei and his team have stood still on the surface, but in fact, they are really waiting for the contradictions to intensify. They secretly selected a part of the people on the island who were least likely to surrender, and broke out with them. ”
