Su Wen did not take the initiative to look for Dong Guo Mu, but Dong Guo Mu couldn't calm down. That night, with the help of Shen Buhao, he came to Su Wen's stone house.
Faced with Dongguo Mu's inquiry, Su Wen did not answer directly, but said that he had not betrayed the human race and that everything he did was for the benefit of the captured extraordinary beings.
Although Dongguo Mu was not satisfied with such an answer, he still nodded and left with his hands behind his back.
But before he left, he said lightly that the seal cast by the lobster man on him would be lifted in three days, and you could find him wherever you could do your part for the human race.
Su Wen was also very satisfied with Dongguo Mu's statement, but Su Wen still said nothing about his plan. Instead, he told some things that happened after he met Long Aotian, and finally expressed his feelings and talked about his various behaviors.
, all so that the captured extraordinary people can get better treatment.
"You said... Lobster Man... Long Aotian, he, he has a special liking for Wu Shi San?"
But Dongguo Mu didn't seem to grasp the key points Su Wen said. He only felt that Long Aotian's idea... was a bit unbelievable.
Long Aotian's status in the lobster people is almost the same as Cheng Zi's status in the human race, but it is surprising that such a number one person is so obsessed with such boring things.
and……
According to the common perception of the human race, Five Stones is not a good thing.
This is the product of a failure when extraordinary people prepare secret medicine. It has the effect of inducing illusions and stimulating sensory joy, so it is quite popular and relied on by some unsteady extraordinary people.
But as the extraordinary power deepens, the effect of Wu Shi Powder on the extraordinary person weakens.
Gradually, Wu Shi San is only used by low-level extraordinary people, but more people who use this drug are more likely to be favored by scribes who cannot even awaken their literary spirit, and it is basically only the children of high-ranking officials who indulge in this way.
, after all, Five Stone Powder is expensive and relatively scarce, and ordinary people have no chance to get it.
The Confucian Temple and the imperial courts of various countries also issued orders to ban the spread of Wu Shi San, but repeated bans continued, and in the end the ban was discontinued.
What I didn't expect was that Long Aotian would be so interested in the things that degenerate literati like...
Dongguo Mu took a deep look at Su Wen and admired Su Wen quite a lot.
In his opinion, Su Wen's introduction of Five Stone Powder to Long Aotian was a stratagem, trying to lead Long Aotian and even the entire lobster people group to a path of no return.
Su Wen could only deny it with a wry smile.
He didn't think that Five Stone Powder was capable of hurting the Lobster Man.
Even if there were, he would not bother to use such means to achieve his goal. After all, no matter how flexible his moral bottom line is, this method is beyond the bottom line and is definitely not a method Su Wen would consider.
However... there is something wrong with Long Aotian's brain. He thinks that any literati's dross is the essence, and then he tries it like crazy. What's the solution?
After chatting with Dong Guo Mu for two hours, Dong Guo Mu finally put aside his previous suspicions and expressed that he understood Su Wen's painstaking efforts and would definitely help him open up the situation here and prevent human beings from suffering more.
Su Wen expressed his gratitude for this.
Shen Buhao also breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, he could get the forgiveness of his mentor and avoid being expelled from the school or even being beaten to death by Dongguo Mu.
It seems that everything is developing in a good direction.
However, that night, Dongguo Mu suddenly disappeared.
When Shen Buhao came to tell Su Wen about this, Su Wen thought it was ridiculous. A good person, such a big person, and lost his power. How could a big living person under Shen Buhao's protection? Just disappeared?
"Find someone quickly!"
Su Wen shouted anxiously and called the extraordinary people around him to look for someone together.
Under Long Aotian's permission, Su Wen and his party could live in a relatively peaceful place. Under the protection of the power of order, living in a specific area, they did not feel the horror of the Mother's Nest.
But once it escapes the protection of the power of order, this place will reveal its original ferocious appearance.
Only extraordinary beings at the sub-saint level can resist the alien rules of the Brood and remain unharmed.
Dongguo Mu's cultivation level is not low, but he is far from reaching the level of Sequence Six. What's more, his cultivation level was sealed by the Lobster Man. Once he leaves the area covered by the power of order, he will soon be contaminated by the Brood, or he will die. , or be contaminated, transformed into monsters, or even become lobster men.
Shen Buhao speculated that when he found Dong Guo Mu, Dong Guo Mu had already been left in the stone house for an hour.
In an hour...even an ordinary person can travel ten miles away.
But at the same time...for an hour, if Dongguo Mu left the safe area of the stone house, even if he could find it this time, he would still have found an out-of-control monster.
"Things... may not be so simple."
When Su Wen and Shen Buhao felt that something was wrong, they suddenly approached Su Wen and reminded Su Wen softly.
"Um?"
"When Dongguo Mu was delivered, he was not as weak as he looked."
Nightmare whispered: "He has forbidden objects on his body, and he was sealed instead of himself."
"...???"
Hearing this, Su Wen was stunned for a while.
Is Dongguo Mu's previous weakness a pretense?
But why would he do this?
Su Wen fell into deep thought.
After all, Dongguo Mu is also a Sequence Five Legalist Extraordinary. The Legalists' mastery of the power of order is also far superior to other methods. Walking in the mother's nest can ensure safety for a long time.
In a short period of time, Dongguo Mu's life was safe.
"This guy wants to sneak away on his own?"
Su Wen speculated on Dongguo Mu's motives.
He shook his head.
The nest is very large. Dongguo Mu has almost no knowledge of this place. Even if he wants to escape, it is impossible for him to be so impatient to escape from this place when it is still safe for the time being.
Besides, Shen Buhao was his direct disciple. How could he not take Shen Buhao with him when he was escaping?
"Where...has this guy gone?"
Su Wen was confused for a moment.
"I have a bad feeling..."
When Shen Buhao heard Nightmare's words, his face suddenly turned pale.
He thought of some possibilities that shouldn't exist but could explain his teacher's disappearance.
But if other possibilities are eliminated, the remaining explanation, no matter how ridiculous, is still true.
"How to say?"
Su Wen asked.
"Ritual... The teacher may have seen an opportunity and is preparing to attack the Legalist Sequence Six in the nest..." Shen Buhao said with a bitter smile.
"Isn't this a good thing?"
Hearing this, Su Wen was somewhat excited.
"What is the name of the Legalist Sequence Six?" Su Wen was curious about the complete serial name of the Legalist Path.
"...I haven't reached Sequence Five yet, how could I possibly know the name of Sequence Six...But if you follow the steps...it should be difficult." Shen Buhao's expression became increasingly pale.
Su Wen was a little disappointed.
Shen Buhao's Legalist path was already quite high, but he didn't know anything about the serial name of the Legalist Yasheng, which surprised him.
"Although I don't know the real name, we all use 'reformer' to refer to the extraordinary person of sequence six." Shen Buhao added.
Su Wen curled his lips.
Shen Buhao didn't need to explain, he also knew that the secular world used "reformers" to refer to the existence of the sub-sage level of Legalism.
This is because the ceremony for every Legalist transcendent to advance to the sixth sequence is to lead a country's political affairs, implement its own political policies, and achieve the goal of enriching the country and strengthening its army.
This is also the reason why Legalist Yasheng is extremely rare.
Change has never been something that an extraordinary person can succeed on his own. It involves the interests of countless people. Once conflicts cannot be resolved, the reform will fail, and the promotion ceremony will also be a failure.
Sometimes Legalist scholars relied on their personal authority and power to forcibly implement policies. However, individuals can force the implementation of decrees for a while, but they cannot force them for a lifetime. Once they retreat from high positions, the forceful implementation of administrative decrees will be cancelled, and all reforms will be restored to their original state. Legalist Chaofan, who has been promoted through reforming rituals, will also be harmed as a result.
Therefore, there are very few legalist extraordinary people who can stabilize the six levels of the sequence.
It is precisely for this reason that Legalist extraordinary people begin to look for possibilities outside the rules, and prefer to work in small countries, so that the resistance they encounter when pursuing reforms can be minimized.
More than five hundred years ago, the Legalist Han Shen found a path that had never been imagined by the Legalist predecessors.
Han Shen believed that it would be increasingly difficult for Legalist extraordinary people to implement reforms in the human race. In addition to the opposition of vested interests in secular dynasties, extraordinary people from other schools of thought would hinder this, making the reform more likely to fail.
Taking into account various reasons, the best way to be promoted is to find the people who are outsiders, educate them, implement Legalist rules in their tribes, and lead them step by step to the path of civilized reform. In this way, the people who are outsiders will not only be From barbarism to civilization, Legalist extraordinary people can also use this process to complete their own promotion ceremony.
The reforms achieved through this method cannot be easily changed by earthly dignitaries. After all, the alien people have accepted the guidance of extraordinary beings from barbarism to civilization. They cannot easily abandon the civilization system built for them by extraordinary beings and eventually become Become a stable and solid anchor for the extraordinary sequence of extraordinary beings.
Han Shen proposed this point of view and was the first to try it.
However, he was unlucky. When he went to the island deep in the South Sea to look for aliens, he accidentally provoked the evil god and was eventually killed by the evil god. This was of course the historical version that Shen Buhao learned. As for the truth, But it was not something Shen Buhao could figure out.
"I wonder...if my teacher...will...take refuge with the lobster people in order to be promoted to Sequence Six..."
Shen Buhao hesitated for a long time and finally expressed his worries.
After all...the so-called barbarians, the barbarians who have not been influenced by the Confucian system as the main body, have become increasingly rare. Even if they return to Dagong, the fish-headed people know that the human race has various schools of thought, and they are also very good at learning this. the idea of an advanced civilization.
But...compared to the lobster people, other barbaric groups have much less admiration for civilization.
Dongguo Mu probably saw this and thought of room for maneuver.
