Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

However, Lin Ze's smile did not last long.

When he slowly lowered his head and gazed at the deceased old leader, at that moment, an indescribable complex look involuntarily flashed across his eyes.

Although the old leader belonged to a hostile camp, in the thrilling, life-and-death battle just now, Lin Ze truly felt the other side's fearless bravery and unwavering spirit of perseverance.

Because of this, he couldn't help but feel a deep respect deep in his heart.

Just at this moment, among the crowd that had gathered together, an old man with a weathered face was slowly walking out with a staggering gait.

He was seen approaching Lin Ze step by step, and finally stopped in front of Lin Ze.

Then, the old man lowered his voice and said to Lin Ze softly: "My child, although we have won the final victory in this cruel war, hatred should not continue to spread. At this moment, what we need to do most is to calm down and think seriously about how to effectively avoid more inhumane bloody killings in the future."

After hearing these words, Lin Ze couldn't help but be slightly stunned. In an instant, he seemed to feel a sense of sudden enlightenment.

It turned out that the words spoken by the old man were like a sudden enlightenment, making him instantly understand many truths that he had never figured out before.

Not long after, Lin Ze climbed to a higher place with firm and powerful steps.

Then, he held his head high, faced the dense crowd below with dignity, and shouted at the top of his voice: "My fellow villagers! Today's arduous battle has finally ended with our victory. But please remember that this is just a new starting point on the road to peace. From now on, we must strive to learn to tolerate and understand those enemies who once fought against us. Only in this way can we hope to work together to establish a new social order!"

As soon as the words fell, the crowd was stunned for a moment at first, but they soon reacted and then burst into thunderous and deafening applause.

Looking at the joyous scene before him, Lin Ze knew very well that the road ahead for him would still be long and full of hardships and obstacles.

However, he firmly believes that he will be able to bravely shoulder this heavy responsibility - not only to protect the hard-earned fruits of victory in front of him, but more importantly, to lead everyone around him step by step towards a beautiful tomorrow where peaceful coexistence can be truly achieved.

Just then, a person walked out of the crowd.

This man is tall and has sharp eyes.

He shouted to Lin Ze: "Brother Lin Ze, your idea is good, but will those enemies really coexist peacefully with us?"

Lin Ze raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said slowly: "It is natural for you brothers to have doubts about this. After all, the unknown always makes people feel timid, but if we don't even have the courage to take the first step, how can we know what the final outcome will be?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present nodded in agreement, expressing their deep agreement with what he said. Seeing this, Lin Ze paused for a moment and continued, "I know very well that the road ahead will be full of thorns and difficulties. That is why I came up with an idea - to take the lead in forming a team dedicated to maintaining peace. This team will bring together brave men from all sides. They have the important task of closely monitoring the actions and development trends of all parties, and mediating in a timely manner all kinds of conflicts that may break out."

When everyone heard this grand and detailed plan, everyone's face showed admiration that was hard to conceal. In the following days, Lin Ze worked tirelessly to find those who met the requirements and shared the same ideals, and invited them to join this peacekeeping team of extraordinary significance. During this period, many ambitious people were deeply touched by Lin Ze's unswerving belief, and they responded actively and signed up enthusiastically.

However, as the saying goes, a tall tree attracts the wind. While Lin Ze was pushing forward this great cause, some forces with ulterior motives secretly expressed strong opposition. These people with ill intentions felt that what Lin Ze did was too naive and idealistic, and was simply a pipe dream. Facing waves of doubts and sarcasm from the outside world, Lin Ze always maintained his inner peace and determination. Because he deeply understood that any profound change would inevitably encounter many obstacles and huge pressure.

Hard work pays off. After unremitting efforts, the peacekeeping team finally took shape and gradually got on the right track. At this time, Lin Ze was full of confidence and led a group of passionate team members to embark on a new journey. They shuttled between various regions, widely spread the lofty concept of peaceful coexistence, and bravely moved forward step by step towards the hopeful and beautiful tomorrow in their minds.

However, the road ahead is not smooth. Once, when they went to a border town full of disputes to promote their ideas, they encountered obstruction from a powerful local evil force. This force has long relied on provoking disputes to gain benefits, and the arrival of Lin Ze and his team undoubtedly cut off their financial resources.

Lin Ze led his team members with a serious expression and slowly walked towards the group of arrogant and domineering evil forces.

Although he was nervous, he remained calm and tried to start a peaceful negotiation with the other party.

However, what no one expected was that these vicious criminals did not take them seriously at all. They did not even bother to listen to a word and waved the gleaming weapons in their hands without hesitation and rushed straight towards the peacekeeping team members.

Although the peacekeepers had received rigorous military training and were all very skilled and quick-witted, they were still put in a passive situation for a while when faced with such a large number of well-equipped enemies.

The evil forces were holding all kinds of advanced weapons with extremely fierce firepower, while the conventional equipment in the hands of the peacekeepers seemed a little pale in comparison at this moment.

In the fierce battle, Lin Ze, with his keen insight and rich combat experience, gradually sensed something strange - there seemed to be a mysterious and powerful force secretly supporting this group of evil forces.

The weapons they use are not only incredibly powerful, but some of them are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

However, as the captain, Lin Ze was not intimidated by the predicament. On the contrary, he shouted loudly and constantly encouraged the team members around him: "Brothers! Don't be afraid! We shoulder the sacred mission of maintaining world peace. No matter how great the difficulties are, we must not retreat! As long as we stick to our beliefs, we will definitely be able to defeat evil!"

Just when the two sides were fighting to a standstill, there was a sudden burst of noisy footsteps and shouts all around.

It turned out that the local people who had received selfless help from the peacekeeping team heard about the war situation here and spontaneously came to support.

They held a variety of simple farm tools in their hands, some of which were even just a wooden stick or a sickle, but everyone's eyes revealed an unparalleled determination and courage.

When the peacekeepers saw these simple and kind people coming to help regardless of their own safety, they were deeply moved and filled with fighting spirit.
