078 The only pure land and ideal township
Among the many epics, the most attractive is undoubtedly "The Epic of Uruk", this 50,000-word book tells us about a time of twisted madness, and also tells us about a utopia that only appears in dreams, the ideal country!
In this epic, it is not the gods that mankind believes, but those who sacrifice their lives for the country, this kind of thing is definitely an alternative among the others in that era, but it is this alternative and almost deformed belief that makes Uruk the most powerful country at that time!
I really want to know what exactly caused them to abandon the mighty gods and trust in those mortals who have passed away!
-- Excerpt from "The Vanishing Ideal Village"
…………………………
Five days had passed since the Battle of Kuro, and two days had passed since Reezer and Gilgamesh returned to Uruk, and as soon as they returned to Uruk, Reich locked himself in his house and continued his studies.
Unlike looking for the Dou Qi cultivation cheats before, this time what he wants to do is how to improve the basic living standards and technology of this era.
So he consulted a lot of relevant knowledge, he didn't want to be able to raise Uruk's scientific and technological level to modern times, build airplanes and cannons or anything, but how to surpass this era by hundreds of years or a level, at least to move Uruk from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age.
In addition to that, he also began to study all kinds of other knowledge, anyway, the things he had been looking at were very messy lately, and it was easier than not looking at those vindictiveness.
There was a knock on the wooden door, Lei Zhe raised his head and rubbed his eyes that were a little sour, he didn't seem to have much time to rest, he always felt that time passed so quickly recently, he stood up and moved his body a little, Lei Zhe said: "Come in." ”
The door was pushed open, and the little priest Zamumu walked into the room, first bowed to Lei Zhe, then took out a parchment scroll and said, "Lord Lei Zhe, this is the list you want, all the people who died in this battle are on it." With that, he placed the scroll on Lei Zhe's table and took two steps back, waiting for a new order.
I have to say that after a baptism of war, this kid has really matured a lot, he has blood on his body, and he has a life on his hands, he is no longer as innocent as in the past, but I also hope that he will leave a shadow because of this, and it is not worth leaving mental illness or something.
"Well, well done, thank you." Lei Zhe opened the scroll and looked at the thousands of names recorded in it, he nodded, at this time he felt that this scroll was extremely heavy, because every name on it was a dead life! These people gave their lives for Uruk, but who will miss them afterwards but their families?
Rolling the scroll up again, Lei Zhe put the thing in the storage space, then lit a cigarette and began to be in a daze, constantly refining his plan in his mind, and after a long time he said: "Zamumu, do you wonder why I did this?" ”
"Don't dare..."
"Okay, I still like the way you used to be, we really can't stand your stereotypical appearance now. In fact, I did this to establish a faith for the Uruks! Saying this, Lei Zhe got up and walked out, and said to Zamumu, "Follow me." ”
……
Lei Zhe took Zamumu to the cliff, where he could overlook the whole of Uruk, and looked at the city that was not majestic in the sun, Lei Zhe said to Zamumu: "What do you see? He said this not only to Zamumu, but also to himself, he was also asking himself, what did he see?
Maybe everyone's answer is different...
Staring at the city below, Zamumu was silent, silent for a long time and did not answer Lei Zhe's question, because he didn't know how to answer, so he chose to be silent.
Seeing his appearance, Lei Zhe smiled, then raised his hand to give Zamumu a chestnut, looking at Zamumu who was covering his head full of puzzlement, Lei Zhe said: "I saw a group of poor people who are blind and have no goal, just keep moving forward." ”
Lighting a cigarette, Lei Zhe looked at the crowd flowing below and continued: "Zamumu, what are these civilians in your eyes? Maybe you don't have this kind of concept yet, but I want to tell you that these toiling civilians are the real foundation and pillar of Uruk! Whether it's a priest, or Gilgamesh, or even me, it's just a bunch of lucky guys, but the lucky ones are a minority, and they're the real masters of the city! ”
"What do you think of this era? Zamumu, maybe you don't understand what I'm saying today, but I'm sure you will understand one day! The Uruks don't need Gilgamesh, not me, not anything else that doesn't matter, they need a goal, a faith! To be able to give up everything for this goal, that's what they need! ”
Saying this, Lei Zhe took out the scroll with thousands of names recorded again, and then opened it and read it, one by one the names echoed on the cliff, the names of more than a thousand people, he did not miss any of them, he read it very slowly and seriously, until the last person!
"When the war is over, who will remember them except their loved ones? Remember the people who gave their lives for Uruk? Maybe decades later, even their loved ones will forget! It is true that people have to look forward to life, but they must not forget what happened in the past, especially those who have given everything for the sake of the living and have left this world! What I want is to create a faith for Uruk, a faith that will last forever! Only in this way, after leaving Gilgamesh, the Uruks will not lose their way! ”
Hearing this, Zamumu's eyes lit up, and then he had a hint of understanding: "Lord Lei Zhe, what are you going to do?" Let the Uruks believe in a new god? ”
"Celestial? Poof, hahahaha..."Lei Zhe was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, this laughter was full of disdain and sarcasm, and at the same time made Zamumu very puzzled.
Celestials, why do you believe in Celestials? For the sake of a damn bull, the gods let Enkidu commit suicide without asking why, is this the gods? In their eyes, is the person who died because of the bull of the sky better than a brute?! They don't deserve to be called gods, they're just a bunch of selfish beings of the Heavens!
If they are the so-called gods, then what about learning from the gods and killing the gods in their previous lives?!
"Zamumu, you have to remember, always remember this! The so-called gods are nothing more than a group of creatures whose strength is greater than that of humans, and their lives are long gone! When you have power beyond them, when you can ravage them at will, you are also a god! But what I want to tell you is, don't be fooled by this ridiculous name of God, because no matter how powerful you are, you are still a human being! The faith I want to build is not those false gods, but this! ”
Raising the scroll in his hand, the sunlight fell on it, making this inconspicuous scroll shimmer golden in the light, Lei Zhe stared at the scroll in his hand, and then said seriously: "I want to make this group of people who sacrificed their lives for Uruk the faith of everyone!" Only they are worthy of being remembered by all Uruks, forever! This kind of faith will not be erased even with time, and this is what I want! ”
Yes, Razor intends to establish a new faith, but not to the ridiculous gods, but to the dead who fought for Uruk!
He wants everyone to implement one idea, that is, for the sake of this country, for their own future and their children and grandchildren, they can give everything without hesitation!
This may be extreme, but it fits perfectly into this twisted era.
He believes that he can do this, because in this era of confusion of beliefs, any reason can make humanity ignite hope and crazy worship, and then rely on this worship, Lei Zhe wants to build a strong country!
As long as this is done, Lei Zhe believes that even in the future, the Uruk people will be able to stand on this land, because they have a reason and goal to fight, unlike now, they will only blindly follow, if Gilgamesh has an accident, Uruk will collapse in an instant!
"Zamumu, I promise that in the near future you will see a brand new Uruk, a country inhabited by mortals that even the gods would fear, and Uruk will become the only pure land and ideal land in this crazy era!"
