Join the Great Wall Guard

Chapter 248 The Gone Past, The Broken Old Friend

"People, there are always things that you think are important and you must stick to. For this kind of persistence, you can give up your life, and you can treat friends, lovers, relatives, and even innocent people cruelly. For that old ghost , Guarding this world is his persistence and belief."

"Create Daji, kill King Zhou, exorcise demons, and guard against the western world...Of course, he never thinks about himself, and everything he does is to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the safety of the entire human world."

The old master and Lu Yu each opened a table, and they sat cross-legged in front of a wooden table.

The Master's face was full of nostalgia, but mixed with a faint sadness, as if he felt extremely entangled and embarrassed between the past and the present.

The former old friend appeared in his dreams more than once, and that ethereal, but majestic figure still floats in his mind to this day.

Now, under Lu Yu's questioning, the memory of the past reappeared vividly in front of Master's eyes again, as if the break with Jiang Ziya happened in the evening of yesterday.

"Senior Jiang Ziya, is his belief and persistence to exterminate all races other than humans?"

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

This is the sentence that Lu Yu remembers most about the hero Jiang Ziya.

When he controlled these well-known heroes in the game and fought in the Canyon of Kings, Lu Yu never had a deep understanding of their backgrounds and stories.

Even their rousing lines only strike a momentary chord.

It wasn't until Lu Yu himself experienced ups and downs in the world of the King's Continent that he could understand the stories behind every hero and their lines.

However, for Jiang Ziya, as one of the most powerful beings under the gods and above mortals, his belief is to create a "perfect human world" without aliens.

His contribution to human beings has indeed done enough, and he is a great sage who pays homage to all living beings.

However, what is justice to human beings is cruelty to other races.

In Jiang Ziya's eyes, the human race should be the strongest race on the Continent of Kings, but in the eyes of the strong, there is no place for the weak.

It is difficult for Lu Yu to agree with his ideas, even though he is a highly respected saint who led everyone to defeat King Zhou in the past, established several powerful countries, and brought new vitality to the King's Continent
"However, Master, I have always had doubts. What kind of human world is the truly perfect human world? Is it a world where there are only humans and no aliens? Or is it a world where only 49 people are killed to survive 51 people, and there are only the strong and no weak? The world? Although the old ghost devoted his whole life to exorcising demons, he stood by and watched the wars and killings between humans... Is this really a peaceful human world?"

On top of the old master's originally breezy complexion, there was a little more sadness and bewilderment.

In the past, Jiang Ziya has been committed to eradicating the demons and crusade against the "big demon king" hiding in the dark. He believes that only by completely eradicating the demons can he bring real happiness and peace to mankind and create a world that all gods yearn for. world.

However, the massacre of the demon species was also counterattacked by the demon species. Although the flames of war were briefly extinguished after King Zhou was sealed, they quickly rekindled and were even more terrifying than ever.

Until now, he has not been able to accept and understand his old friend's ideas and persistence.

"To be honest, Senior Master."

Lu Yu stood up suddenly, hesitant at first, but quickly gave up, and said firmly: "Maybe to you, my idea is a bit absurd, but I firmly believe that no matter whether it is human beings or demons, there is a way to survive." Right. No matter which party it is, it does not have the right to interfere with the fate of the other party."

If such words were casually uttered on the street, I am afraid that they would directly attract a burst of saliva and scolding.

After all, the philosophy that Jixia insisted on still remained in the dogma left by Jiang Ziya in the past.Although everyone yearns for peace as always, it is difficult to achieve peaceful coexistence with demons.

"Oh? Young man, do you mean that you want demons and humans to coexist peacefully?"

The old master stroked his slender white beard, and a bright light flashed between his energetic pupils.

"Ah."

Lu Yu just nodded silently without saying a word, and then observed the expression of the old master.

"Humans and demons coexist Lu Yu, do you know who the person who had this idea last time was?"

Instead of directly criticizing Lu Yu's words, the old master suddenly changed the subject.

"King Zhou."

Lu Yu said lightly, his expression was still calm, and the old master sitting opposite was also the same, without any surprised expression.

"King Zhou once wanted human beings to coexist with demons. However, almost all demons come from the power of terrifying demons, and they have powers that ordinary people cannot match."

"The stronger the power, the more difficult it is to control. You should be very clear about this."

There was a moment of sadness in the eyes of the old master: "The old ghost is also, he clearly knows that once some things go too far, it will exceed his expectations. He has exhausted all means, cheating, abducting, intimidating and luring the disciples to fight each other and kill the devil." In the end, he was betrayed by Wu Zetian and locked in an unknown corner..."

"However, I cannot deny what you said. Human beings are life, and demon seeds are also life. There was no grudge between the two, but they were fueled by each other's desires and ambitions. Disaster It will not only affect one side, it will be a disaster for both humans and demons."

He shook his head silently, then nodded to himself, and he didn't know whether he supported or opposed it, the old master didn't have an absolute statement.

"In this world, there are no completely right and wrong things. Whether it is Jiang Ziya's predecessors or King Zhou, what they insist on is nothing more than what they think is the most righteous choice."

Lu Yu smiled lightly, because the words of the old master did not favor any side, and meant to be neutral.

"However, the old man still finds your thoughts quite interesting. Did you stay in Jixia College for a long time and was infected by the style of study here? At least, you are the first one who dares to speak out about such a topic so generously people."

The old master showed a kind smile, as if he was deeply satisfied.

"For the three old men of our Jixia College, both humans and other races have the right to enjoy peace. We must not wantonly destroy other races just because of the 'peace' and 'justice' we pursue. of peace."
