VIII. After the Slave (Middle)

The current territory of the Yanhuang tribe on the western continent has a full area of 3.4 million square kilometers of territory, compared to the entire western continent, it is naturally not even the proportion of a sesame seed on the pie, but these territories are rich in natural resources, and the population has reached 35 million, it can be said that the Yanhuang tribe has built a solid stronghold on the western continent, as for when to expand again, it depends on the strength of the Yanhuang tribe to digest these territories.

The ideological work of the Yanhuang people has been done very well, what is bittersweet and sweet, what is digging poor roots, what is drinking water and not forgetting to dig wells, and so on, and so on, those slaves will not talk about it, one or two have become loyal to the Yanhuang people, even those commoners, ordinary nobles, the loyalty to the Yanhuang people has also been greatly improved, so that in less than a few decades, these 35 million people will become slaves of the Yanhuang people, but not physical slaves, but ideological slaves. Coupled with the cultural education of the Yanhuang tribe, these people will only follow the Yanhuang tribe forever in the future, the God of Light, what is it? After a little more time, they will no longer remember that they once believed in the God of Light madly.

Zhang Tieyi picked up a white zi, looked at the chessboard in front of him with all his attention, his white zi was already quite bad, it can be said that if there were a few more, if he didn't have the power to return to the sky, he would lose. Lu Lumei smiled and stretched out her right hand, put a circle between her two fingers, and gently flicked it on her husband's forehead and said, "Don't think about it, if you think about it again, your head is bald, playing chess, you can't play me." Zhang Tieyi gave up, it was really embarrassing, he always thought that his chess skills were very high, and he was only afraid that he was invincible in the whole clan, but he couldn't beat his wife, and it was depressing enough to think about it.

Just when the two couples were playing chess and flirting, a voice sounded outside the door: "Master, disciple Zhang Zeshan asks to see." "Come in. Zhang Tieyi withdrew his right hand that was stretched out to touch his wife's face, and said unwillingly, while Lu Lumei said with a smile: "Zeshan, come in." ”

The one who came in was a young man of about twenty-seven or eight, with very beautiful flaxen-colored hair, up to his waist, his figure was very tall, more than 2.4 meters, his white face showed a kind of tolerance and generosity, his light blue eyes showed a compassionate and compassionate color, and he had a sword at his waist, but he was obviously a person from the Western Continent, but he took a Yanhuang clan-style name, which was very strange.

Zhang Tieyi said: "Zeshan, sit down." "Thank you, Master, Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. "Zeshan, yes, you've been gone for more than a year, and it's been a long time, come, drink tea." Lu Lumei poured a cup of tea for Zhang Zeshan. "Thank you, Master. Zhang Zeshan stood up and took Lu Lumei's tea, and then sat down again.

Zhang Tieyi said, "Zeshan, you have been out of the city for more than a year, when did you come back?" "Master, the disciple has just returned to Shengbu Port, so he came to visit Master and Master. "I have a heart, it's hard for you, I have been out of Lu for more than a year, what have you gained?" "The harvest is very great, there are many things that Master taught me, many of which are to really get out of the way to know that things are like this, and I have gone out of this experience, and I really understand the correctness of what Master said." ”

Zhang Tieyi nodded and said, "The sages of my Yanhuang clan said: 'It is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles. What the book says is just an impression, of course, it is not as shocking as my own experience, and you can understand this truth, and it is not in vain that I have taught you for more than ten years. "Master, it's just that there is one thing that the disciple really can't understand, why are we all human beings, except for appearance, etc., we are all human beings, but why can the two great temples treat those slaves like this?" Zhang Zeshan's tone suddenly rose, and it was obvious that he had been struggling with this question for a while.

Zhang Tieyi smiled and said: "People are different from each other, or rather, the body of people is the same, but the difference in thinking leads to the difference in behavior, our Yanhuang people's thinking is more advanced than theirs, so we can treat all ethnic groups well, but they don't have our thoughts, because their purpose is to enslave all ethnic groups, this is the biggest difference." ”

Zhang Zeshan said: "Master, in contrast, under the leadership of Master, we slaves are really happy, Master, is there any way to go to the entire Western Continent under your leadership? Only under the leadership of you and the patriarch can all the ethnic groups have a peaceful and happy life, Master, you can pity them, please send troops." ”

Zhang Tieyi shook his head and said: "Zeshan, you are still so naΓ―ve, my Yanhuang clan has the ability to conquer your Western Continent, but we will not do this, although iron and blood are necessary tools for conquest, but they are not the only tools, and besides, my Yanhuang clan does not want to be stained with too much blood, this is one of them." Second, I, the Yan and Huang clan, don't want to meddle too much in the affairs of the Western Continent, so that others will think that we are invaders and will all rise up against us, so we can't do this. "Master, they just don't know the truth, you and the patriarch don't need to take their reactions to heart. ”

Zhang Tieyi smiled: " I said you were naΓ―ve, Zeshan, too many people in this universe are ignorant of the truth, but they are easily instigated by other people or forces, and no matter what you say, we will not use force, at least, we will not use force first, force will kill many people, death will only increase hatred, therefore, we do not want to use force, moreover, my Yanhuang clan is not a savior, and the slaves on the western continent cannot count on my Yanhuang clan, sometimes, it is better to rely on others than on their own. ”

Zhang Zeshan said, "Master, I don't quite understand what you mean. "Silly boy, my Yanhuang clan is very powerful, but I will not rashly attack a civilization that has existed for a long time, the reason is very simple, if all the powerful people want to rely on their strong strength to destroy the relatively low-level civilization, then this universe will be completely chaotic, the ancestor of my Yanhuang clan is one of the saints who opened up this universe, our Yanhuang clan only has the power to manage this universe, but not the power to eliminate various low-level civilizations, to manage the major races, each civilization, that is not something that can be done by force, it requires not only force, but also wisdom, do you understand." οΌŸβ€

Zhang Zeshan still didn't understand, Lu Lumei glanced at her husband and said: "Tieyi, aren't you talking in vain? What do you say? What's the use, Zeshan won't understand, Zeshan, let's put it this way, our Yanhuang clan will not send troops, if you want the slaves on the western continent to be liberated, you have to rely on yourself, rise up and overthrow the rule of the two major temples and various empires, and exchange your own blood for your own happy life, we can only give you some weapons and material support at most, and nothing else." It's all up to you. ”

Zhang Zeshan finally understood, his face became more, and said, "Master, what are you for?" "It's very simple, they don't need to buy it with their own blood, they won't cherish it, only through their own efforts to get it, this is the most cherished." In this universe, there is never anything that is not earned for nothing, and if you want to get it, you have to fight for it yourself, exchange it for your own efforts, blood and even your life. There is no other way. Moreover, this is the best gift and the best spiritual wealth that you have left to future generations, because it represents your spirit of resistance, your spirit of not being afraid of violence, and your courage to fight against fate, and set up a monument for future generations. ”

Zhang Zeshan understood, stood up and knelt down to Lu Lumei, bowed to the ground, kowtowed and said: "Disciple, thank you for your teachings, thank you for your guidance, my disciple understands what to do in the future." "Come on, you are the first apprentice accepted by our husband and wife, our husband and wife have been married for more than 100 years, and they don't have a son, and I adopted you and let you have the surname Zhang, which is to cultivate you as a son, and the love between us for more than ten years, do you still need this? Lu Lumei hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull Zhang Zeshan up.

Zhang Zeshan said: "Master, what you said is certainly the right way, but in the face of the two great temples, the strength of our people is really too weak, although the disciples have the heart to change the fate of these slave compatriots, but they don't know where to start. "You go and ask your master about this, he is in charge of this, in fact, you don't have to be presumptuous, as long as you have this heart, it is enough." ”

Zhang Zeshan turned his gaze to Zhang Tieyi. Zhang Tieyi said: "Zeshan, do you really have the heart to be that bird, intending to change the fate of the slaves on the Western Continent?" Zhang Tieyi's expression was unusually serious, "You have to know Lu Dao, if you do this, you will no longer have any way out, even if you are a teacher, I can't protect you, even if you are my nameless but real son, I can't protect you, from now on, you will no longer be under my protection, do you know Lu Dao?"

Zhang Zeshan said: "The disciple knows the way. "Do you know that if you really do this, your chance of dying can be said to be 99.9 percent, revolution, not a dinner party, it will kill people, and you may be the first, do you understand?" "If you do this, you will be completely in opposition to the two great temples and all empires, kingdoms, principalities, and all nobles, and you will be a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, and they will inevitably get rid of you, and then you will live in the shadow of death at any time, you know. "The disciple understands. "Are you still willing to do it?"

Zhang Zeshan said: "I remember that when the master adopted a disciple, he gave the disciple the name of Ze Shan and Ze Shan, which not only made me do my best to protect good people, but also because Ze and Ze are the same sound, Ze Shan is the choice of goodness. It means that I want to choose what is good and cling to it. Being able to help my compatriots and make them no longer be humiliated and enslaved by the powerful is the greatest act of kindness, and although the disciple has not learned enough to meet the master's chance, the disciple also has the heart to do this good deed. Although he died, he did not complain. It's just that Master and Master and Master have painstakingly raised me for more than 20 years, and they have carefully taught me both civil and military arts, and my disciples are not filial, so I will not be able to serve by Master and My Mother's side in the future. Please accept my three prostrations, Master, and Mother. ”

Zhang Zeshan knelt on the ground and bowed three times in a row. Zhang Tieyi's eyes were full of tears, and he stretched out his hand to pull him up and said: "Good boy, it is not in vain that I have taught me for so many years, and I will not be in vain with you as an apprentice, the master will be proud of you, do it well." "Yes, Master. ”
