Elysium Island Section 8, the spark of freedom
At the end of the dinner, the monks dispersed. Generally speaking, monks do not like to get too close to other monks during their practice and rest. It's a habit and an instinct.
According to the agreement, Si Dao came to the remote building he had just come to again.
This time, Xiaobai also followed. Originally, Si Dao was reluctant to let Xiaobai follow. However, Xiaobai belongs to that kind of person, the more you don't let her do it, the more she must do it.
Si Dao couldn't resist her, so he brought her over.
There are a lot of demon slaves gathered here, there are as many as a dozen, much more than expected, not just a few just now.
Even, Si Dao didn't know most of the demon slaves in front of him at all. These demon slaves did not belong to the thirty demons under his control.
"Big ...... My lord, they are all our friends. When we tell us everything about today, when we tell you everything that the adults say, many demon slaves hope to follow the adults. ”
The demon slaves that Si Dao knew knelt on the ground and pleaded with Si Dao.
"My lord, we long for freedom, we don't want to be slaves, I hope you can save us!"
The other dozens of demon slaves also knelt on the ground, pleading with Si Dao.
Si Dao didn't speak, didn't refuse, didn't agree, just thought.
"Si Dao, you can save them!"
Xiaobai also pleaded with Si Dao. She saw that the demon slaves were here, and she didn't know what was going on. In an instant, her dead thoughts rekindled.
In these demon slaves, she saw hope again. She really couldn't bear to look at these demons, driven by people like slaves, and couldn't help but live and die.
As he spoke, Xiaobai told Zhen Youqian about the thirty demon slaves that he gave to Si Dao.
Xiaobai's words made all the demon slaves present excited, as if they saw the light of hope and the possibility of being rescued.
Xiaobai and Si Dao were together, but for a few months.
In the past few months, they have actually experienced very few things together, just the turmoil of the Iron Sword Gate. However, in that incident, Si Dao found out the truth of the incident lightly.
In addition, Si Dao has always been unusually calm, and every time he speaks, he is unusually steady, giving people a strong sense of faith.
I have to say that Si Dao actually has a special temperament, which is particularly reassuring.
Therefore, when Si Dao asked several demon slaves to report a number, when Si Dao said that he would find a way, although the demon slaves didn't know what the solution was, they subconsciously believed Si Dao's words.
It seems that there is nothing that the priest can't solve.
But obviously, the priest can't do everything.
After the entreaties of the people, Si Dao said, "Do you think I can save you, and how can I save you?"
As soon as he asked, the crowd froze.
The demon slaves all fell silent, not knowing how to respond. They originally pinned their hopes on Si Dao, but they didn't expect Si Dao to ask them in turn.
The flame of hope that had just been lit seemed to be about to be extinguished again.
"Si Dao, you can definitely take them. Xiaobai is still unwilling to give up.
She tugged at Si Dao's clothes, tears in her eyes, full of pleading. She had cried several times since the end of the day.
"I can't save them!" Si Dao affirmed to Xiaobai.
"I can't save you!" Si Dao affirmed to the demon slaves.
As soon as he finished speaking, the demon slaves fell to the ground.
Only the demons controlled by Si Dao can still maintain their knees and have strength. They were lucky, lucky to be assigned to the priest.
"Are you going to give up again?" asked Si Dao again.
His question kept the spark of hope alive.
Everyone turned their eyes to Si Dao. They don't understand what Si Dao means, but they understand that Si Dao still has something to say, but they understand that Si Dao still has a way to speak.
"I said I can't help it, but it doesn't mean that you can't help it. As I said, you are the only ones who can save you. There has never been a savior in the world, and no one is more reliable than yourselves. ”
Si Dao's words did not give a method and result, but they changed the psychology of the demon slaves.
"Your Excellency...... Thank you for your advice! Your Excellency is right, we should not only know how to rely on adults, and we should not put all the burden on adults. We should think about ourselves, think about what we can do!" said a demon slave. His words were approved by the other demon slaves.
"So, what can you do?" asked Si Dao.
Si Dao's inquiry made the demon slaves fall silent. The silence didn't last long, though.
"We can, we can pay with our lives. A demon slave spoke. Si Dao knows this demon slave. This demon slave belonged to him, one of the three demon slaves who came with him last time.
When he said the first word, he was still very hesitant, but when he finished saying it, he was already very firm.
The change his words brought to the demon slaves.
Some demons agreed, and some demons feared. The positions of the demon slaves have been divided.
"How many of you demon slaves want to be free?" asked Si Dao.
"One Hundred ...... Two hundred...... Or maybe three hundred ......," replied a demon slave. After he finished speaking, the momentum of the demon slaves was much smaller.
Apparently, the problem is back to the beginning. There are too many demons who want to be free, and it is impossible for Si Dao to save so many demons!
"Let's go back!" Si Dao waved his hand, his tone cold, as if he had lost his patience!
"Si Dao!" Xiao Bai hurriedly shouted.
However, Xiaobai's words did not change anything. When he saw Si Dao's indifferent eyes, Xiaobai did not continue to speak.
Si Dao is a gentle man. The more gentle a person is, the more he will be afraid of others once he is angry, and the more he will not dare to refuse and provoke.
Si Dao is a determined person, and once he decides, it is difficult to change.
The demon slaves felt this emotion. Fearing the priest, they bowed their heads and left the place.
Xiaobai glanced at Si Dao resentfully, but retracted his resentment. She knew that Si Dao had done enough, and she had done it well enough. She had no reason to hate Si Dao. Instead, she should be grateful.
However, Xiaobai just felt uncomfortable and left here.
This is the end of this meeting!
But right away, another meeting will begin immediately!
When everyone left, when Si Dao stayed alone for a while, several demon servants reappeared.
These demon servants are the staunch faction just now, and they are determined to pay the price of their lives. They came back because of the priest.
Using the slave contract, the priest gave them an order to leave and come back again.
And just like that, the second meeting began!
