Chapter 1982 Right and Wrong
Before dawn, the last bandit lurking in the mud deep in the Great Lakes was found and killed, and the offensive and defensive battle of Taiping City Walled finally came to an end.
On the surface of the lake, there are countless rotten corpses from the wreckage of the explosion, and there are pieces of raging flames, reflecting the darkest sky before dawn like a fierce hell.
The blood-colored Bianhua flowers in the sky have long since disappeared. Those noble celestial beings who live in the "City of the Sky, Manzhushahua" seem not to have much interest in fighting the bottom-level "Gu worms" in the backcountry.
The dead have already staggered to the other shore, but the living still have to struggle on this devastated land.
Although under Li Yao's all-out attack, the short and fierce offensive and defensive battle did not cause too much damage to the Taiping Walled City, but after all, it consumed a lot of precious weapons, ammunition and stored energy.
Several iron-hulled ships were destroyed by the cannon fodder of the Blackwater Gang, and one of them involved the crucial water purification chip.
On the evil soil, almost all water sources are heavily polluted. Drinking unpurified natural water directly is a dead end. Even boiling at high temperature may not be able to eliminate all impurities and poisons. It must rely on the filtration of water purification chips.
There are thousands of people in the Taiping Walled City, and the daily water consumption is calculated in tons. Without water purification chips, it will be a disaster.
Also, yesterday Li Yao rescued a large number of criminals who were driven by the Blackwater Gang to fight Taiping City Walled. These criminals soaked in the icy lake for a long time. Struggled desperately and called for help.
Behind them were their wives, children, young and old, who didn't even have weapons, and were all driven over by the Blackwater Gang to die. They even hugged each other, weeping bitterly, trembling under the guns and swords of the Taiping City Walled City.
According to the wishes of many people in Taiping Walled City, they should simply let these guys fend for themselves and just drown in the lake.
But they were no match for Gu Zhengyang's order, and reluctantly picked up most of the criminals.
Now these people have become captives of the Taiping City Walled City, pitifully imprisoned in two large iron-hulled boats with no power, waiting in fear and despair for the final verdict.
Their ending was more or less ominous.
Even if Gu Zhengyang was really merciful and didn't want to directly execute thousands of criminals including old and weak women and children, but if they were expelled like this, their few supplies would be plundered by the Blackwater Gang. The situation of being unarmed and having no food left is also a word for "death".
Even as Zhao Lie once said when he was alive, it was a slow and painful death like Ling Chi.
However, the Walled City of Taiping itself has a population of several thousand people. If it needs to admit several thousand people at once, the scale will be doubled directly. There is absolutely no way to support it in terms of food, energy, space and various resources.
Not to mention, the two sides fought fiercely during the Godsend Ceremony and last night's offensive and defensive battle, and had formed a deep hatred, so it is absolutely impossible to accept each other easily.
The leader of the captives has spread the word that since they are defeated, they are willing to accept the rules of the evil land and be executed by the Taiping Walled City without complaint or regret.
However, can you ask the elders of Taiping Walled City to be merciful and leave all children under the age of fourteen, even if they live as slave soldiers at the bottom of Taiping Walled City, as long as they can survive!
Gu Zhengyang hasn't made a decision for a while.
And the reason for his hesitation is also very good. The Taiping City Walled only repelled the two vanguards of the Black Water Gang and the Red Fire Gang, and they were far from the main force of the two gangs.
It is estimated that in the eyes of these gangsters, there is no need to go all out for such a thing as embezzling Taiping Walled City. Sending a few murderers out has already given Taiping Walled City enough face.
Now that dawn is approaching, if there is no news back to Shuanglong Valley before sunset, those vicious bandits will definitely take action.
Regardless of the Red Fire Gang or the Black Water Gang, Gu Zhengyang didn't think that after losing face, they would be merciful and let Taiping City Walled go.
Taiping City Walled City is still in danger, manpower is extremely scarce, and there are a large number of strong and strong captives, even their wives, children, and children are being imprisoned here. Naturally, we must be cautious about how to deal with these people.
However, when the first ray of morning sun shone on the deck of the iron-hulled ship, Gu Zhengyang's thoughts were neither focused on the captives nor on the gangsters in Shuanglong Valley, but were highly focused on Li Yao.
He had circled Li Yao for the 137th time, and asked the same question for the 52nd time: "What happened last night... was it really you who did it?"
Li Yao said calmly: "Report to the village chief, yes."
Then came another question repeated fifty-two times: "Tell me, how on earth did you do it!"
"No comment."
Li Yao said calmly and indifferently, "There is no plug-in installed in the database to explain complex tactical tasks to civilians. With your level, combat experience and understanding ability, it is difficult to explain it to you reasonably and fully."
Gu Zhengyang was stunned for a long time, and stared at the indicator light on Li Yao's chest, and finally couldn't help asking Han Te and Liuli, who were snickering beside him, a brand new question: "You two, didn't you think about it?" By taking apart its crystal brain, see what its core processing chip looks like?"
"negative."
Li Yao continued to say unremarkably, "My crystal brain is the highest level of military secrets. According to Article 22 of the military regulations, only the commander-in-chief of the 'Special Operations Brigade under the Supreme Command of the Northern Starfield', or has The refiner with the 'Azure Double Diamond Maintenance and Modification Qualification Certificate' can open the shell of my crystal brain. All the rest, regardless of whether they are friends or foes, once they touch or even spy on my crystal brain, it will be regarded as the most serious hostile act. There will be an instant reaction from me."
Gu Zhengyang wondered: "Instant reaction?"
Li Yao explained: "Just like last night."
"..."
Gu Zhengyang took a deep breath, his face became very ugly, and he finally understood, "That is to say, you can obey Han Te's orders, but you can't let him disassemble your deepest structure, and you can't repair or modify you ?”
"Basically, yes."
Li Yao said coldly, "I just activated a brand new fully automated repair and upgrade database. As long as I am provided with enough energy and materials, and set a predetermined combat environment, tasks and goals, I can automatically repair and modify and upgrades."
"What a...unbelievable guy!"
Gu Zhengyang looked at the drill and chain saw at the front of Li Yao's mechanical arm, and sighed again, "I've never seen such a war puppet before."
Han Te suppressed a smile and said: "Master, the evil soil is so big, who can figure out all the secrets, maybe we were lucky, and picked up the most powerful military crystal brain in the martial arts world before the 'big trial'? In short, If it wasn't for the help of 'Yao Xing' last night, the Taiping Walled City would have been destroyed! Isn't it great now?"
"Yes, Dad, Uncle Liu seems to be looking for you to talk about the wounded."
Liu Li blinked her eyes quickly and said, "Go quickly, the two of us can just watch 'Yao Xing'. If there is any situation, we will call you right away!"
"……All right."
Gu Zhengyang did hear someone calling his name on another large iron-hulled ship. After taking two steps, he stopped suddenly, turned his head and said, "I'll ask you another question. I don't know if you can find the answer in your database. Late... You deliberately let those criminals go, why? Judging from your methods of dealing with Ma Kuo and Fei Zhong, you should be able to kill all those criminals. If Han Te only ordered The order to 'defend the Taiping Walled City', you have no reason to show mercy to the criminals, right?"
Li Yao was silent for a moment, then said: "I don't know, it's just that the 'rule' deep in the crystal brain requires me to do this."
"perhaps"
Liuli had a flash of inspiration, clenched her fists and said, "A long time ago, the people who created the 'Demon Star' were a group of cultivators?"
"is that so?"
Gu Zhengyang was slightly taken aback, and suddenly realized, he opened his mouth wide and showed a sincere smile, "Understood, don't worry you two, I will definitely find a way to protect the Taiping Walled City!"
The middle-aged man, who was sickly and disabled, fought fiercely all night, swung his fist vigorously, and flew away into the distance like a young man in high spirits.
Looking at his back gradually leaving, the smile on Han Te's face suddenly became a little stiff, and there was an intricate light in his eyes.
Li Yao sensed the subtle turmoil in the young man's heart, and said, "Do you have a problem?"
"Um?"
Liuli blinked her big crystal clear eyes and looked at Han Te suspiciously.
"It's not a question, it's just..."
Han Te scratched his hair for a long time, and finally got up the courage to ask, "Old Yao, do you think my master is right?"
Li Yao said: "Your master is right."
"What the hell are you thinking!"
Liu Li also puffed up her cheeks and said, "Of course Dad is right, we just have to fight these jackals to the end. Look at our current results, isn't it good?"
Han Te shook his head vigorously and said: "No, Liuli, that's not the case! The reason why the Taiping Walled City still exists is because we discovered 'Yao Lao' by chance. It was Yao Lao who turned the tide and saved everyone in the Taiping Walled City. !
"If Yao Lao hadn't existed, Taiping City Walled City would have been devoured by gangsters long ago, and a lot of blood would be shed and many people would die, and those who survived by chance would become unrecognizable and become inhuman and vicious beasts, like Those criminals who were injected with stimulants and rushed towards us in a self-destructing shuttle.
"From this point of view, could Zhao Lie be right? After all, not all villages in the world are so lucky to find a 'Yao Lao'!
"Last night, at the last moment, even Master was shaken, admitting that Zhao Lie was right, and I could only escape by dying... No, I didn't mean to blame Master, it's only natural for Master to do this , I just can't figure it out, I can't convince myself, would it be better for us to listen to Zhao Lie earlier?"
Li Yao continued: "No, Zhao Lie is wrong, your master is right."
Han Te stubbornly said: "If my master is right, how can this road be passed without 'Yao Lao'?"
"It doesn't work, neither your master nor Zhao Lie's path will work, but that doesn't mean your master is wrong."
Li Yao stared at the direction of "Sky City, Manzhushahua" above the sky, and said softly, "Perhaps, your master's insistence is right, and the wrong... is the whole world!"
