MTL - Entertaining Into Bitterness Drama-Chapter 88 Right Eight
Participants in any war will find enough reasons for themselves, and will never recognize the "justice" of the enemy.
In the final analysis, this is a very real problem, the **** decides the head.
It's not all about "righteousness", at least people are selfish.
Can everyone have noble morals and sentiments? This is impossible, and it is inevitable that there will be some kind of private interest consideration.
I still don't know who will win and who will lose in the end. Is any of them willing to admit that they did something wrong? Naturally, it is only a question of victory or defeat, not the cause.
In the eyes of future generations, history is always bright and beautiful. There are thousands of blood struggles for the winners, and thousands of sins for the losers. The "forced" and "extraordinary times" of those times have long been left behind in the unknown past. Things that are difficult to mention will be automatically glorified, so people who grew up in peaceful times no longer believe in darkness - but it exists objectively and will not disappear just because it is not recognized.
Like this assassination, there are more actions that will not be remembered, the sacrifices made by countless people in order to win.
Mercury admires all those who sacrifice for the ideal, but she does not like to use the ideal high hat to ask a certain person to make sacrifices.
No one is obligated to sacrifice for the ideals and goals of others.
As a relative of the sacrificed person, Mercury could only keep silent about this, at most: "Did she make a choice voluntarily?"
"Yes, we asked her for help, and she chose to help us, for which we are very grateful."
…
Because most of the top leaders of the invading army died, the situation in Mei City has undergone earth-shaking changes. The invading army and two resistance armies fought in the city. The invading army seemed to be provoked and began to frantically slaughter the people in the city , forcing many people to escape from Mei City.
The two people who came to deliver the gold bracelets reminded Mercury, "The situation is chaotic, and there may be chaos here soon. It's best to leave here to avoid the limelight."
This is a history that Mercury is not familiar with, because the world is not based on the real history she has learned, and she has no prophetic ability from God's perspective, so she doesn't know what will happen, just guessing When the conflict in the war widened, before the invading army slaughtered the city, he and the rest of the people left Meishi and fled to the south.
Many people went out of the city, and many of them went to different places, either going back to their hometown or going to their relatives, and they walked together for a while.
In the fleeing team, Mercury saw the familiar shopkeeper of Yueke Building and his wife, the couple who once had conflicts because of men's **** for sex, but they supported each other on the way to escape. Never give up.
She also saw a butcher who can often be seen in the vegetable market. He was fierce and fierce. He usually yelled at his wife and children. Nestled beside him, the family is inseparable.
She also saw more acquaintances, a middle-aged woman selling breakfast on the next street, with her child; Big family; a young guy with an old man with a broken leg on his back, who used to love to whistle at Lai Jin on the street.
There are many more people that Mercury does not know.
Before she came to Mei City, she also experienced a journey of exile, and now she is quite familiar with it. Having been a man for a few years in this troubled world, she seems to have acquired experience, and as a 'man', this section of the road is a hundred times smoother than the section that went to Meishi a few years ago, at least no one covets her, much less harassment.
Traffickers who kidnapped people... In short, they didn't dare to leave their family, and the elders in the family watched closely.
At times like this, Mercury couldn't help but think of gold.
With such a face, how many difficulties did she encounter when she left with her sweetheart? She said that she was later sent to the invading army. What happened?
She always remembered the way Jin sat in the courtyard and talked about this part later, the calmness was sad. She said that the world is the same wherever she goes, but she clearly has unwillingness in her eyes. Was she looking forward to a world where ordinary girls could breathe the blue sky normally?
Before she died, did she think about what she did, whether it could bring peace to future generations?
There were many people leaving on the fork in the road before, and the reason why Mercury followed her here was because she didn't have a good destination in mind. For a person who is used to thinking about the way back, this is a little different from her usual habit.
A group of people walked to Mashangang, and someone in the team suddenly said: "I heard that there is a big gangster village nearby, should we take a detour?"
A rough woman holding her grandson said immediately.
There were several children in this family when they were on the road. The youngest child seemed to be only one year old. On the way, he fell ill and died of weakness. At that time, the mother was crying with grief, but after crying Still had to drop the child's body and move on.
"Yes, yes, it's the last step to get here, let's be careful, it won't be so unlucky." Some older people echoed, they are a little older The people who are still really can't walk. If they walk for a while, the old and the weak will probably fall a few more.
A group of people said a few words, and decided to go down to Mashan Hill.
"It won't be so unlucky, when we meet bandits, how can it be so coincidental..."
Sometimes it's so coincidental that it can't stand talking. A group of big men suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain, and a man in bunts shouted down the mountain, like a wild animal howling in the mountains. The crowd below was shocked and fled in an instant.
The leading man on the mountain scolded, kicked the man who had howled to the side, and led him down the mountain to stop the terrified crowd.
Someone in the crowd couldn't help kneeling and begging for mercy, crying miserably.
The big man in the lead had a shaved head and looked in his thirties, with a scar at the corner of his eyes and a fierce look on his body. He waved his big hand to shut everyone up, looked at everyone and said, "We Although the brothers in Mashangang Village are bandits, they are righteous bandits, who have killed the invading army and slaughtered big profiteers, and don’t take action against ordinary people.”
"You don't need to be scared like this, you can leave if you want to go, I won't stop it. But we need people in our stockade now, if someone has no place to go, just stay in our stockade, but we Mashangang If the stockade does not support those who are idle and do not work, you have to be useful to the stockade, and if nothing else, it is not a problem to have enough food and clothing."
That said, but most of these simple people are timid, no one dares to talk to them, and no one dares to stay in the bandit den just because of these three words.
The man seemed to be used to it, grabbed his head and scolded, "Damn, no matter how hard you can catch a strong worker these days, you can't catch it."
Someone tentatively walked out a few steps, seeing this group of people just talking on the side, really didn't mean to stop them, and gradually became more courageous, in twos and threes, you drag me, support each other He left quickly, and in the end, only two people remained.
This young man is usually taciturn and does not talk to anyone, but he chose to stay silently.
The other is Mercury, she was about to leave, but the system suddenly gave her a story.
In the original plot, Li Lanzhi also came here, but Li Lanzhi came here first. After half a year here, he went to Meishi and witnessed the death of Laijin.
In the original plot, Li Lanzhi was driven out by the people of Liancheng. He took his adopted son Liu Guisheng and his mother-in-law Liu Sun to suffer various hardships on the road, and went into exile in other places for a long time before arriving at Mashangang.
Sorghum, the head of Mashangang, fell in love with her at first sight and wanted to bring her to live in Mashangang. Li Lanzhi had no money to support his adopted son and mother-in-law, and was unwilling to let them suffer from starvation, so he had to agree to live in Mashangang, endure the humiliation and burden, and promised to cultivate a relationship with the big boss and get food and money from him.
Li Lanzhi was loyal and unyielding to her husband. If it wasn't for the support of her son and mother-in-law, she would not be willing to mix with a mountain bandit. She looked down on Kaoliang, the head of the family, and the people in Mashangang didn't like the three of them. However, Kaoliang liked her and was willing to be hanged by her. willing to deal with them.
The three lived here for half a year, Sorghum repeatedly asked to marry her as a wife as soon as possible, Li Lanzhi couldn't drag it on any longer, so she was cruel, drunk Sorghum one night, killed him, and burned him After arriving at Mashangang Village, taking advantage of the chaos, he quietly took his son and mother-in-law to leave, and then went to Meishi.
Whether it was killing the sorghum of the big boss in Shangang, or bringing someone to kill her daughter to come to Jin in Meishi, it can be seen that Li Lanzhi is not a weak woman, she is very courageous sometimes.
It's just that being brave doesn't mean having brains.
After seeing the quicksilver of this plot, she suddenly decided to stay and see. Since she had this idea, she followed the trend.
The man who led a few people to talk there was the big boss Sorghum, the big boss who didn't meet Li Lanzhi and survived now, looked very bold, and glanced at the two of them, the big boss. The palm-like hand clapped on the shoulders of the two of them, and laughed: "Okay! Good job, since you stay here, you will be brothers of our Mashangang Village in the future, let's go, go up the mountain!"
The young man was quickly pulled aside by several other men to talk, and he almost dug out his eighteenth ancestor, but no one came to Mercury's side to hook her up.
Because Mercury seems to be a thorough reader, especially with a pair of glasses, her reserved and weak temperament is really daunting. In the past, literate scholars were incredible, but now everyone in Mashangang Village can't even write their own names. In the stockade, these are all men gathered in the nearby countryside, and the highest culture is to be able to write a few names crookedly.
The men looked at her indifferent and embarrassed to start calling her brother. Only a big boss, Kaoliang, walked by her side and told her a few words about the stockade.
Mercury calmly talked with Gaoliang all the way, and when she reached the gate of Mashangang Village, she already had a scruple in her heart.
Although this man obviously has not read any books, his mind is still clear. From the point of view of speaking skills, he is also a thick and thin person. Such a person was killed by Li Lanzhi in the original book. Now, Mercury can only say that beauty is misleading, and falling in love is terrible.
