"Old stubborn!"

These words were scolded by Gong Xiqiu.

A prisoner, who gave him the courage to scold Mama and choke his elder brother? He deserves to have a miserable life in the end! He will be imprisoned!

Wei Lou's reaction to this was to close his eyes.

A posture of out of sight but out of mind.

His eyes were closed and he could not see, but his ears were not closed for hearing. Jimo Qiu believed that he could hear: "This junior has just made a bold guess - has Senior Wei Lou talked to Lord Ji Sun?"

Wei Lou wanted to hear what nonsense this high priest could say.

He said, neither salty nor indifferently: "We talked about it, but we parted on bad terms."

I remember they were quarreling during those few meetings. It was a rare moment when the monarch and his ministers lost control of themselves since they met, and their sense of reason was completely gone.

If not, Wei Lou would not be so disappointed.

Destroying an existence that is almost equivalent to one's life with one's own hands requires not only despair, but also great determination. He is not a young and reckless boy, and he cannot unilaterally choose to cut off his status without verification and redemption. It still hurts to think about it now.

Jimoqiu confirmed the details with him.

"The kind of thing where you tell your heart and analyze your heart and liver?"

The corners of Wei Lou's mouth moved slightly, and he took a short breath.

He said sadly: "Nothing."

Several nearly quarrels were enough to cause rifts in the relationship between monarch and minister, and the prerequisite for confiding one's heart and soul was enough trust in each other. But he didn't expect that Jimo Qiu's next words opened Wei Lou's eyes and shattered his past.

Cognition.

"From the perspective of the high priest, if I were the leader of Jisun Kingdom, I might make the same decision at that time."

Wei Lou raised his eyelids, pursed his lips tightly, and took a deep breath, suppressing the negative emotions swirling in his heart. If Jimo Qiu had said these nonsense a quarter of an hour ago, he would have definitely regarded it as a provocation, and it would not be enough to destroy the opponent's ancestral grave.

Indignant.

At this moment, he just asked in a dumb voice: "Why?"

"The following is just a personal conjecture, not the truth." Jimo Qiu first warned him and said hello, and then stabbed Wei Lou gently and gently in the heart, hitting the vital point. "Calculating the time, a large number of soldiers used Gu insects in exchange for force.

Can't you hold on any longer? The Wu Kingdom is only one step away from unifying its territory. The shortcomings His Highness just mentioned are actually nothing. They can be solved slowly after unification. If it doesn't work in three years, it won't work in five years. If it doesn't work in five years, it won't work in ten years.

If not, it can be hundreds of years. The lifespans of courageous warriors and literary scholars are much longer than ordinary people. But if you and Lord Ji Sun can wait, can hundreds of thousands of Gu insect warriors afford it?"

"Their lives have been devoured by Gu insects."

"I don't understand. When the life span is exhausted, it is just bones and human skin."

"It's not easy to solve - the user pays the essence, blood and longevity, and the poison returns the same strength as the courageous warrior, giving ordinary people the ability to survive. This is fair. Now that the world is about to be settled, it is necessary to solve the poison

Breaking the contract and letting these people regain their normal life span is not something so cheap in the world. Even the contemporary high priest can't do it, let alone one who has not been chosen by God?"

"But, Your Highness can do it."

A few passages completely overturned Wei Lou's previous understanding.

He breathed quickly and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Shen Tang.

His pupils trembled imperceptibly, his breathing alternated between rapid and slow, the whites of his eyes were covered with dense red threads, and there was restrained madness in his eyes, the agitation before a volcanic eruption. His fingers were clasping the roots of the tree tightly, each knuckle Shen Tang said lowly as if he was overwhelmed. Shen Tang did not expect that Jimo Qiu would come up with this angle of speculation. For Wei Lou, it was nothing less than murder and heart-wrenching.

She was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Maybe."

As he spoke, he remembered the plague discovered in Heyin County in the early years.

The source of that plague was also Gu insects.

Shen Tang used his own blood to draw out the poisonous insects.

Jimo Qiu added: "The solution to the poison is just one of the guesses. The other one is that His Highness is closely connected with the earth. Although he does not hold a farming position, he is still somewhat humble. If we can help, the food crisis after the reunification of the Wu Kingdom can be solved with the smallest possible solution." If the cost is spent, many people will not starve to death. As long as food can be solved, other problems, such as corruption and rebellion, can be solved with force."

The name of the Kingdom of Wu indicates that it is full of martial virtues.

Nothing is lacking except force.

Jimo Qiu emphasized again as if to conceal the truth: "It's just a family statement. I think so. I don't know what the Lord Ji Sun is like."

The more Shen Tang listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

"No, why does it sound like it's all dirty work?"

Doesn’t it mean that Wu Guo is offered as a sacrifice to the gods?

Why is it like asking God to come over and clean up the mess?

Which god is so humble?

Jimo Qiu, an honest boy, also gave Shen Tang a stab in his heart: "Actually, everything His Highness is doing now is pretty much the same."

Which one is not a dirty job?

When I open my eyes, I either go to war or deal with memorials. I don’t have any money. I help others pay off their loans every day. I can’t enjoy the power. There are three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines that an emperor should have. There is not even a ghost. ?The subordinates are more deceitful than the last!

Other officials are 996, she is 996*3, and occasionally 007*3.

Normal people would have collapsed long ago.

Your Highness has been busy for many years and yet you didn’t find anything wrong?

Shen Tang opened his mouth and found that he could not refute.

"No, but I..."

She didn't know why for a long time.

Jimo Qiu changed the subject and suddenly asked Wei Lou a strange question: "Have you ever raised a cat? If we use cats as an analogy, His Highness is a cat owner, the Gongxi clan is a domestic cat, and people outside the Gongxi clan are domestic cats. Cats outside the home. If a free-range cat causes trouble that cannot be solved, the owner hopes to help. As long as the bottom line is not involved, the request will generally not be rejected."

It would be easier to understand if it was explained this way.

Su Shang couldn't beat Chu Yao's dog, so he always looked for support from Qi Shan.

Qi Shan never refuses anyone who comes, and he enjoys the feeling of being close and dependent on Su Shang. If one day Su Shang brings back a group of hungry little friends from outside, he will definitely entertain them warmly with the best cat rice, and he can’t wait to feed the cats. Feed the cat fat and then let it go.

He comes to pet his cats, just N of them!

For cats, praying for kindness is a soft-hearted god.

But Shen Tang thinks he is the one who shovels shit.

so--

Shit shoveling officer + soft-hearted god = shit shoveling god???

Jimo Qiu looked at Wei Lou, whose expression was blank and his eyes were lifeless. What he said was a bit cruel, but he had to say: "Senior Wei Lou's worries are reasonable and reasonable. From your point of view, there is nothing wrong. 'God' is for unknown existences." It can be a saint who loves the world in the heart of a mortal, or it can be a bystander who regards all living beings as nothing. 'God' may really exist, or it may be an incarnation that evolved from word of mouth and placed hope on people. As for 'god' Definition, Senior Wei Lou’s previous understanding was too narrow.”

Cats don’t know whether the stranger approaching them is a soft-hearted salvation, or a bull ghost with a violent temperament who will abuse cats. Being vigilant and fearful of the unknown is the survival instinct of natural selection. Whether it is the Lord Ji Sun or Wei Lou , both of them are right.

They just have different perceptions.

"Is everything your Highness is doing now consistent with what you were worried about back then?" Jimo Qiu asked soul torture.

Atop the ruins, in a prison.

Wei Lou's time seems to be frozen in a certain moment.

The blood color has faded away, leaving a thick layer of grayish white.

Just when Wei Cheng was worried that his uncle would lose his energy and blood and die, Wei Lou covered his chest and vomited out a large pool of bright red blood. He covered his face with his hands, and there seemed to be water stains running down the fingers to the back of his hands. The arrogance of the first meeting was gone. Existence, the spirit of decadence and decline is fully revealed.

Even though Wei Lou knew that this was just Jimo Qiu's guess and not Lord Ji Sun's true motive, he still couldn't help but hope so. Shen Tang was stunned at this scene.

No, just give me a step and go down?

What about the stubborn old man you promised?

Jimo Qiu is still conscientiously abiding by his duties as high priest.

"You can be biased against God, but you cannot be biased against His Highness. She is required to meet the stringent conditions for ministers to choose masters, and she is qualified enough as a master. She has not abused her power to interfere with you. She is now with You are all mortals. What if you could do this if you put yourself in their shoes? If you went to a remote place that is isolated from the world and where folk customs have not yet developed, you would give up your brocade clothes, wear coarse linen clothes, and farm with the farmers. They get rid of poverty and become rich, instead of using their own strength to forcibly interfere with the overall cause and effect? ​​With the strength of twenty-level Chehou, it is easy to rewrite the fate of ordinary people."

If his inexplicable extra memory hadn't deceived him, a being like Your Highness would be very afraid of entering the world to overcome tribulations, and the success rate would be infinitely close to zero. For the love of cats, oh no, for the little people of the Gongxi clan, she really worked hard. Who can say that His Highness is not a very good person?

Wei Lou's collapse lasted only a few breaths.

When he put down his hands with an indifferent expression, his mood returned to normal.

"You are loyal to protect her."

Jimo Qiu: "The master humiliates his ministers to death, and the ministers protect the master. The high priest who regards serving the gods as his top priority is naturally the same."

Wei Lou: "..."

Jimo Qiu's "master humiliates his minister to death" stabbed him in the foot again, but this time he did not have the strength to break the defense: "Time is so fast, I never thought that I would hear this more than a hundred years later. No matter what the truth is, it is too late. As for the prejudice, I take it back for now."

"Take back your prejudice? Oh, do I still want to be grateful to you?" Shen Tang was amused by his words and laughed inexplicably, "Actually, I also have questions. Since you are so afraid of the theory of gods and ghosts, why do you want to talk to him again? Will the gods cooperate?”

Is not this contradictory?

In addition to the Society of Gods, there is also the Eternal Life Sect.

What's the explanation for this?

"Xie...there is still a difference between you and the magic stick."
