Time slipped through his fingers like water, but for Gilgamesh, it was a fulfilling time.

Trained hundreds of times a day, Gilgamesh's strength and skill have improved significantly, and at least now he can fight back, instead of just defending passively, as he did at the beginning.

Of course, although the progress in martial arts is gratifying, what really makes Gilgamesh happy is the improvement of Uruk's production.

After the precise implementation of the plan provided by Youfeng, Uruk's grain harvest has improved significantly, at least more than half of the same size compared to a city of the same size.

The reason why such an achievement was achieved was because Youfeng released a certain amount of time for Gilgamesh to train Uruk's escorts, and equipped them with blades that Youfeng had blessed with the realm.

As long as the patrols didn't go too far, the food was rarely destroyed by the monsters, and all of them were chased away by well-equipped convoys, sometimes even adding extra reserves to Uruk's treasury.

Soon, the day finally came to offer sacrifices to the gods.

Presided over by Gilgamesh and the High Priest himself, the whole of Uruk was basked in the joy of the harvest.

After all, in this era, the gods are the heavens in the hearts of the people, and they believe that it is because of the blessing of the gods that they have ushered in a good harvest.

Even among the convoys, it is rumored that their new equipment was won by the great King Gilgamesh, and the blessings of the gods were applied to these blades, so that these weapons have a power far beyond the other blades, and are comparable to artifacts.

Sitting on the walls of the royal palace, Yu Feng's face became delicate as he looked at the people who were partying at the festival and "applauding for love" in front of the statues.

Such a novel picture is also the first time he has encountered it in Youfeng's 10,000-year travel career, after all, he has always lived in a civilized and developed world.

This kind of picture with raw impact still makes him a little difficult to accept for a while.

"Ishtar? Is it a being who has multiple divinities and is favored by the gods? It's really like me. ”

Muttering the name of the city god of Uruk and remembering some of the things that Elle had mentioned, Yufeng finally understood their similarities.

"However, compared to me, she should still be a little worse, although it is now somewhat restrained......"

According to Ishtar's various rumors, coupled with watching her divine sacrifice, Yu Feng understood that the other party's willfulness was estimated to be a little smaller than his own.

She will not restrain her desires, but will do it as long as she is interested, this is the most favored goddess on the Sumerian land, the mistress of the sky, and the sister of Elle - Ishtar.

It's really too similar to Youfeng, but Youfeng has become a lot more careful in dealing with people because of a few big heels.

Without Ishtar's aggressiveness, although in Youfeng's eyes, the other party does not have the strength to match her aggressiveness for the time being, but this aggressiveness will prompt her to become stronger.

And although I have the power to do whatever I want, there are some things that are lost in the process of growing up, and it is difficult to get them back.

To use an analogy, Ishtar is like an eagle soaring freely in the sky, while Maple is a cloud floating freely in the sky.

Restrain your thoughts about Ishtar, anyway, as the city god of Uruk, she and Gil will definitely collide, and something very interesting should happen at that time.

Retracting his gaze, Yufeng jumped off the city wall and walked briskly towards his residence.

This divine sacrifice really disappointed him, or is it comfortable to go back to sleep, or to tease the honest Elle?

Forget it, that girl seems to be quite busy, not only to settle the dead souls, but also to take care of the budding flowers, and I don't know what that guy's gardening talent is, maybe she's in a hurry now.

Thinking of the things that need to be paid attention to when I talked to her about the growth of flowers a few days ago, that guy's face changed back and forth, which is really interesting.

Obviously, I just raised the requirements a little, and the consequences were a little more serious, and I added that I didn't have any extra seeds.

Thinking of the embarrassed figure that Ai Lei hurriedly ran back at that time, the corners of Youfeng's mouth couldn't help but hook up a curvature, beautiful flowers are indeed the existence that can make people feel happy.

After a while, Yu Feng returned to his residence.

Looking at the half-closed door, Yu Feng raised his eyebrows, there must be no one in Uruk who will enter his house except for Jill.

Pushing the door in, and sure enough, at a glance, I saw Gilgamesh rummaging through his cabinet.

There were also a few empty cake boxes lying on the table, and I thought on my knees that I knew what was going on.

Well, Lone's snack cabinet has been burglarized.

Sensing that Youfeng was back, Gilgamesh held a piece of cake in his hand, turned to Youfeng, and greeted Yufeng without changing his face: "Yo, teacher, did you have fun at the god sacrifice?" ”

Youfeng shook his head helplessly, spread his hands and said: "I'm bored to death, the smell of estrus in the square, is there no other entertainment except to vent lust?" ”

He complained about the boredom of the sacrifice, but in his heart he was thinking about how to fix Gilgamesh tomorrow, although he didn't care about these cakes, but he was casually turned over the cabinet, which made him very unhappy.

Gilgamesh unwrapped the cake, took a bite and said, "Isn't there still a joust?" Forehead...... Indeed, at your level, teacher, watching those is probably like watching children play, which is really boring. ”

As soon as he said the word jousting, Gilgamesh reacted.

"Then why doesn't the teacher go and vent his desires? The prostitutes in the temple are still very good, huh? ”

Youfeng, who had just sat down on the bed, frowned suddenly, is this little rabbit trying to kill me?

emmm, the consequences of cheating......

The picture is so beautiful, Yu Feng is a little unimaginable.

"What about you? Why don't you enjoy it, the pressure accumulated from many days of practice will be problematic if you don't release it well. ”

Yu Feng asked with a wicked smile.

Gilgamesh ate his cake and said vaguely, "I don't have any idea of this, besides, it would be a waste of energy, but I have to manage the whole of Uruk, and nothing else matters except for Uruk." ”

As the chosen king of men by the gods, Gilgamesh, who possessed two-thirds divinity, ruled the human race according to the will of the gods during this period, and contributed a large number of sacrifices to them every year.

Youfeng said helplessly: "You kid won't think of yourself as a saint who has no desires, right?" ”

Swallowing the last bite of the cake, Gilgamesh tilted his head and said, "I am the king recognized by the gods, how can I be a saint?" ”

"I don't think you understand it at all~"

Yu Feng walked up to Gilgamesh with a funny look on his face, and stretched out his finger and flicked his forehead.

Covering his somewhat aching forehead, Gilgamesh retorted, "I don't understand anything? ”

You Feng restrained the smile on his face and said seriously: "It seems that it is necessary to correct your thinking, I don't want my apprentice to become a good knife in the hands of others." ”

"Now, Jill, let me ask you, do you have desires? Do you have that desire that comes from the depths of your heart? ”

Gilgamesh thought seriously, "No, I only have the goal of governing Uruk, and I don't have the desire for such a thing. ”

Hearing these ridiculous words, Youfeng gave Gilgamesh a hill on his head on the spot, and scolded: "Use your brain that has not yet begun to develop and think about it, do you really have no desire?" ”

Gilgamesh rubbed his head and looked at Yu Feng blankly, he didn't know how to answer this question, as the Heavenly Warrior chosen by the gods, it seemed that nothing else was beyond his ability to think about except managing the country well.

Looking at the overwhelmed Gilgamesh, Youfeng covered his forehead with hatred.

After a little waiting, Gilgamesh still didn't give an answer.

Youfeng said with some disappointment: "Jill, you are still young, there are some things I say now that you may not understand, but you must keep it in mind, because at some point in the future, you will suddenly remember what I said and understand the truth, and then you will be able to become a king who is not mediocre." ”

Youfeng puts the bottom line very low, not asking you to become a wise king, but it will never make you mediocre and incompetent.

Gilgamesh also understood that the teacher decided to teach himself a life lesson, put away the confusion in his heart, and when to do something, this Gilgamesh was still very clear.

"The heavenly gods have wisdom beyond mortals, and as gods, are they absolutely impartial and selfless beings? Shouldn't they be able to see through the essence of things, understand their reasoning, and make the most correct decisions? ”

Yu Feng seriously asked two questions.

Without thinking, Gilgamesh affirmed, "The answer is yes, the god has wisdom beyond the world, will protect his followers, and is able to make absolutely correct decisions." ”

"Not really~"

Yu Feng playfully rejects Gilgamesh's answer, and jokes in a cruel tone: "The gods have never been on the side of humans, and the so-called divine blessing is nothing more than the wishful thinking of mortals. ”

"The gods are greedy, they give their followers strength, they make believers sacrifice a wonderful farce for them, and watch humans who are obviously puppets die in famine, but never mention an oracle that makes mortals reduce their offerings, and how many people will be saved from death in a famine if they do not spend a lot of money on this boring god sacrifice?"

"If the gods still have desires, why do you, who are not as good as the gods, claim that you have no desires? An existence without desires will not be distressed, I seem to see that you have been worrying about it~"

"If I want to say that, I naturally have a desire, and that is to govern Uruk, and there is no other desire."

Gilgamesh admitted.

You Feng shook his head and vetoed: "Although it is true that you are dedicated to Uruk and do everything yourself, this is the responsibility and obligation that you should fulfill as a king. At the end of the day, lust is a derogatory term after all. ”

Gilgamesh was silent, he didn't understand what the teacher meant, no matter what it was, from different points of view, it would come to different conclusions.

For a while, he didn't know what Yu Feng was trying to tell him.

Seeing that Gilgamesh was still not enlightened, Yu Feng continued: "Desire is an endless driving force, and it is precisely because of desire that people have the possibility of creation. ”

"Humans themselves are stupid, but what they create is valuable. Because they didn't want to get cold, they created clothes; Because clothes require the fur of monsters, people have made weapons; Because they didn't want to get wet in the rain and didn't want to be blown by the cold wind, people built houses. ”

"With the desires of the heart as firewood, human beings have created all kinds of things of different values. And if there is no desire, then human beings are probably extinct long ago, human beings cannot adapt to the harsh environment, and their thin bodies are at the bottom of the food chain. ”

"It is desire that contributes to the current status of mankind, and without desire there is no future, Jill, I don't want you to stop in the near future, your eyes should be able to reach farther."

As he spoke, Youfeng touched Gilgamesh's head, got up from the bed and walked to the cupboard to get something to eat.

Is it the motivation to move forward...... So what exactly is my desire?

Gilgamesh thought about it, looked at Youfeng's figure rummaging through the cabinet in confusion, and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

Youfeng stopped rummaging through the cabinet, and he said casually: "You have to ask yourself this, I mean you can be a little willful, these gods are not a big deal, you are the king of all the people, why do you have to listen to them." ”

"Okay, okay, let's go back quickly if there's nothing else, the training will continue as usual tomorrow, and cherish the comfort now."

As he spoke, he waved for Gilgamesh to leave.

Gilgamesh left silently, he still couldn't understand, what can be considered willful, is it willful to resist the gods?

No, this is obviously wrong, so what is the real answer?

Let's finish today's business before thinking about it.

Seeing Gilgamesh leave, Youfeng was lying on the table, eating the cake bite by bite, and the whole person looked weak.

"It seems that there are a lot of big truths today, really, obviously these things will be understood by themselves after a few follow-ups."

“……”

"Eh, it's really hard to be a teacher, the sharpening of strength is simple, but the teaching of the soul is extremely difficult."

"Well~ After all, it's all a detour he took back then, so let's let him avoid it."

After eating the cake, Youfeng lay directly on the bed, and after a while, a slight snoring got up.

It's time for him to show him something, and have a good dream, Jill......

In the distance, Gilgamesh had just given the matter to his lieutenant, and he himself had fallen asleep to recuperate himself for tomorrow's training.

As Yu Feng said, constantly hovering on the brink of death has accumulated a lot of pressure for Jill.

At night, it's better to rest in peace.
