The green-shirted cultivator bowed and saluted, and then calmly walked out of the courtyard.

The alley where this courtyard was located was very high, and perhaps there used to be a small hill under the alley, so at this time, the green-shirted cultivator only needed to straighten his body slightly, and his eyes could easily see many edges of the city.

Changling is a very large and majestic city.

Compared to the capitals of powerful dynasties such as Han, Zhao, and Wei, it was not inferior, and its population even surpassed that of any other capital.

It's just that this big city, which looks very vibrant in the sun, is actually full of the smell of decay and depravity.

A very small number of powerful men are like huge pumping trucks, continuously extracting the wealth of the entire Great Qin Dynasty here and piling it up in their hands.

In the 800-mile pass, there are even more remote but more vast frontiers, not only wealth, but even talents have gathered in the past decades.

The magnates are too rich, and the people are too poor, and the city looks extremely majestic, and many cities everywhere are dilapidated, and a city cannot represent the appearance of a dynasty.

At this time, there were not even walls on the edge of this majestic city under the sun, and it seemed to be an indomitable expansion, but ordinary people did not know it, but people like him knew it very well.

Five years ago, the layout of the city was settled, and it was urgent to build a matching wall, but five years later, it is still unable to build.

The very few powerful gatekeepers naturally have enough financial and manpower to build such a wall, but who will lead the way and who will pay for it?

Even the emperor can't directly control such a thing, and if it hasn't been resolved for five years, this dynasty naturally has a big problem.

......

Behind any glamour, there may be filth.

Many people can actually see it, but many people don't want to change, they just want to profit from such rules of the game and join the stream.

Not only Changling, but all the cities in Qin are like this, even if they are border cities that are so remote that they don't have much sense of belonging.

Wang Jingmeng looked at the street in front of him and was silent.

He had seen poor people waiting to die on the side of the road in the famine, women who abandoned their children beside the rich family's chariots and horses, and several old people who had broken their heads and bled for half of their stinky steamed buns.

It's just that he had never seen some men who looked fairly strong before being tied up like cattle and being sold there.

"I advise you not to mind these idle things, it is not appropriate to do more such things as chivalrous righteousness, at least not this time. ”

A soft voice sounded behind Wang Jingmeng.

Wang turned around and saw that it was a young man who was only slightly older than him, wearing a pure black shirt, his hair was very well combed, and he looked extremely clean, but his face was slightly pale, and his body looked thin and sickly.

"I know you, you just killed a swordsman named Meng Qiong before. ”

The young man bowed his head slightly at him and said seriously: "But this time is different, these people are actually the same as the traffickers who sold them, even if some of the merchants in the past have to use labor, buy them back, these people steal some goods and escape... Traffickers also colluded with some horse thieves, and if these merchants were also ruthless, it was horse thieves who attacked the caravan. ”

Wang Jingmeng didn't know what this young man meant, but listened quietly.

The young man looked at him and continued, "Horse thief, cultivator... As long as people can kill people, they will generally be used, even if there is no teacher behind them, there are many intricate relationships, and it is a good thing to be chivalrous and righteous, but it is like taking a cocoon and drawing silk, I am afraid that the more and more silk threads are drawn, how can they not be drawn. If you are not afraid of trouble, it is okay, but it is difficult for you to imagine the revenge methods of some people, such as some horse thieves, if their people are killed by you, but they do not take revenge on you directly, because it is difficult to kill you, they will directly do it to the people you have helped, so those people will be more afraid of them, and they will not dare to go against them in the future. You should also understand that if you can help for a while, you can't help for a lifetime. You can't stay somewhere all the time and watch from the hospital. And also... Even if it is a vicious horse thief, in fact, if everyone can live a peaceful life and eat and drink comfortably, where will they make a living licking blood on the knife. Many horse thieves were originally good people, or they also provoked trouble in anger, so they were convicted and had to be horse thieves. ”

"Hmm. ”

Listening to the young man say so many words, Wang Jingmeng heard that he meant well, nodded and hummed softly.

His bland reaction made the young man feel very strange, and he was stunned.

"I wasn't going to do anything. ”

Wang Jingmeng withdrew his gaze from those people, looked at the young man and said, "After fighting Meng Qiong, I will take a look at and think more about many things I do. ”

The boy frowned.

He didn't even know why he was frowning.

"Anyway, thank you for your kindness. ”

Wang Jingmeng looked at him and said, "Most of the beasts harm people because they feel threatened, or they just want to eat and live, but there are many unexpected reasons for people to kill. ”

The young man's brows did not stretch, and he didn't understand what Wang Jingmeng meant by this.

"I only hope that everyone's life will be respected, and I hope that every Qin person will have a clear distinction between love and hate. Wang Jingmeng said.

"It's idealistic, it's a little naïve, but it sounds good. The teenager couldn't help but laugh, he felt so, so he said so.

He looked at Wang Jingmeng with a smile and said, "I'm Li Si." ”

Wang Jingmeng looked at this young man who looked very bright in the sun, and also smiled, and said, "I am Wang Jingmeng." ”

"It's a pleasure to meet someone as interesting as you here. ”

Li Sidao: "Of course, fun is not demeaning... What I really mean is that it's rare to meet someone who is so assertive and thinks like that, and I think it's really good. ”

He thought Wang Jingmeng was interesting, and Wang Jingmeng thought he was also interesting, so he asked, "Then what do you think?" ”

Li Si felt that this kind of dialogue itself seemed a little naïve, but he still said seriously: "A sword can't manage too many things, and violence can't solve too many problems, the key is to have a rule that everyone can follow, and those who commit crimes will definitely be punished, even those powerful people can't be an exception." ”

"You mean the rule of law. Wang Jingmeng looked like this, but it was nothing more than that.

Li Si was stunned, he frowned slightly, solemnly stretched out his hand and nodded in a direction, and said: "The Han Dynasty adjacent to us is strong in this way, and the Han Dynasty was not too strong compared to our Qin before, but it only took ten years, just ten years, and now for our Qin, it has become a tiger wolf." ”

He paused, looked at Wang Jingmeng's still unsurprised appearance, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said frankly: "You are walking here, I thought you didn't know much, you didn't know these things at all, and you couldn't think of them." Now it seems that I am shallow and ignorant. ”

Wang Jingmeng likes his honesty very much, and also likes people like him who have dreams and look very bright in the sun, much like a person who clenches his fists and does a career, and he himself said seriously: "I am different from the ordinary hunters here, it takes a long time for them to feed themselves and their families, but I can use a short time to let me not worry about food and clothing for a long time in the future, and I have been like this since three or four years ago, so I can do a lot of things in my spare time." I've read some of these things and heard some of them said. ”

Li Si listened very carefully, he listened to Wang Jingmeng say this, groaned slightly, and said, "It's just that I don't think you seem to think so." ”

Wang Jingmeng did not hide it, nodded, and said: "My teacher told me that different people have different cultivation methods, and they vary according to their aptitude, and I also agree with it very much. The same sword move is used on different enemies, and when it is used at different times, the effect is very different. The situation of the two dynasties is different, and it should not be possible to generalize. I have heard many caravans who have returned from the Han border say before, what if there is a law that is not followed? Those people said that they did not dare not follow it in Korea, because the person who wanted to rule by the law did not even dare to disobey Emperor Han, and there were many strong people under that person's seat, and whoever did not accept it would be subdued. So in my opinion, if you want everyone to listen to you, someone has to convince everyone. ”

"Who can convince them all. Li Si subconsciously replied to this sentence, and when he said this, he felt in his heart that what Wang Jingmeng said was not completely unreasonable.

"It was impossible for that man to subdue everyone alone, and there were many people who followed him. Wang Jingmeng replied seriously.

Li Si frowned deeply and said, "What you said is very reasonable, so no matter what you want to do, you must have someone who can convince everyone to help." ”

Wang Jingmeng didn't say anything anymore, which seemed to him to be the most obvious truth.

In the past, when the prey in the mountains encountered some fierce beasts that a few people could not deal with, they would gather more people and deal with more people together.

"I'm really glad to meet you, my teacher has always told me before, people who have too many dreams are often naïve, and often lonely, but now I feel that this kind of person is not born high and low, not born without friends, but needs to work harder to find, and a lonely person who feels that he can sacrifice himself to achieve great things often can't succeed. ”

Li Si saluted Wang Jingmeng seriously, and then asked, "I'm going to Changling, where are you going?"

Wang was shocked and said, "I'm going to Qiyun Cave." ”

"It's a poor and remote place, and there's only one town close to it, and it's a bit chaotic, so you have to go there to practice?" Li Si frowned.

Wang Jingmeng nodded.

Li Sidao: "If we meet in Changling in the future, it will be really fateful." ”

Wang Jingmeng bowed slightly and replied, "Okay." ”

He was an extremely smart person and understood the meaning of Li Si's words.

Generally speaking, like this kind of separation, the other party will only say, that there is a fate to see you in Changling.

Changling is the royal city of Qin, and it is also the largest male city in Qin, the most wonderful and colorful place, as a cultivator, it is very likely that you will eventually come to Changling.

But Li Si said that if he met in Changling, it would be really fate, so he heard that Li Si could also be in danger and troubled after he arrived in Changling, and if he arrived in Changling in the future, Li Si didn't know if he could still live well.

So if you can see you again at that time, it will be really fate.
