Chapter 118 Life and Death

Ever since the Yedi Academy joined the war, there was actually no suspense about the outcome of this war.

At the beginning, Wu Wei was still wandering on the front line to avoid any accidents on his own side.

Then he returned to Chaos Domain.

Because everything is calm.

The awakened people of the Federation and the high-ranking demons and ghosts have indeed disappeared.

Although bullying the weak is quite interesting, bullying them is still not as fast as bullying demons and ghosts.

Wu Wei was immersed in the fun of killing monsters, but soon, Qin Nigang informed him of a serious matter.

"Dean Wu, I might trouble you to take a trip to Liberty City."

"Federal capital? Have we hit there?"

"Not yet, but we have found Kong Ming's hiding address."

"Understood, send me the address, and I'll go right away."

Traitors are often hated by their own people more than their opponents.

It is absolutely impossible for the empire to let go of Kong Ming.

He must pay the price for his actions, this wind cannot last long.

Now that the Empire's attack on the Federation has achieved a devastating victory, it is only a matter of time before they reach the City of Liberty.

When Wu Wei came to Liberty City, what he saw was a city that was half out of control.

It doesn't have the style of Liberty City in the previous TV images.

Regarding this, Wu Wei didn't have any emotion, and could only say that the Federation did it for itself.

He passed through the crowd and came to an underground research institute in the southeast direction.

Compared with the panic outside, the order here is still in order.

It's just that the number of people is a little small.

It didn't take long for Wu Wei to see Kong Ming.

He was preparing a potion, and with his back to Wu Wei, he said softly, "Give me another 5 minutes, because of my friendship with Lin Shen."

Wu Wei frowned.

He has made the system invisible to himself.

Under normal circumstances, Kong Ming should not have found himself.

However, thinking that Kong Ming is also one of the five emperors, Wu Wei still expressed due respect for his ability.

He waited for 5 minutes.

Then Kong Ming handed the prepared potion to Wu Wei.

"Give this bottle of potion to Ying Yingying, and she will be free in the future."

Wu Wei: "..."

"You guessed right, she was indeed tampered with. At the critical moment, I can make her fight back against you."

"Then why give up?"

Looking at this middle-aged man in a white coat, although Wu Wei's murderous intent persisted, he still decided to ask.

These old people who have achieved success and fame in the previous generation often have many secrets.

And Kong Ming, a double-faced man, must have a lot of secrets.

Wu Wei wasn't very interested in other people's secrets, but when it came to his own, he couldn't stand on the sidelines.

"Your progress is faster than I expected. The development of the situation has not gone as I expected." Kong Ming explained softly.

Wu Wei's eyes flickered.

"Do you think the empire will lose?"

"No, I know that the empire will win, so I want to stand on the side of the federation. I can't let the empire win. But it turns out that the general trend is unstoppable."

Kong Ming's tone was a little sad, more powerless.

Wu Wei's expression became more and more strange.

"Has the empire eaten your rice? You don't want the empire to be good so much?"

Kong Ming looked at Wu Wei and asked him an inexplicable question: "If you say that I betrayed the empire because I love it too much, do you believe it?"

"What do you think?" Wu Wei rolled his eyes.

This kind of thing is not a question of whether to believe it, but a question of not being able to believe it.

Because once you believe it, and finally find out that others have lied to you, then you will feel particularly ashamed.

If you can believe such a lie, how stupid are you?
On the contrary, even if this kind of thing is true, you have to not believe it, because this kind of thing itself has problems.

"The empire cannot win, the federation cannot be destroyed, Qi Tian cannot die, Wu Wei, this is not the first time you have heard these words, right?"

It is indeed not the first time.

Wu Wei also heard about it once from Lan Tian.

"The source of this argument is actually Lin Shen. She guessed something, otherwise I wouldn't be so easily persuaded by Qi Tian."

"What did you infer?"

"Empires cannot win forever."

Kong Ming walked out of the room and motioned for Wu Wei to follow.

He took Wu Wei to a library.

Then from the bookshelf, he found an old book and handed it to Wu Wei.

"This is real history, you can read it later when you have time."

Wu Wei took it.

"I've studied it carefully, Wu Wei. The luck of our country is really not very good. There has been a malice against us all the time."

Wu Wei immediately filtered the information he knew now, and found that what Kong Ming said was not unreasonable.

"More than 2000 years ago, we were not the Great Qin, but the Immortal Qin. Our country's civilization was in its heyday. At that time, we could even fight across galaxies. The First Emperor was even more powerful and unbeatable. But such a brilliant civilization was still surrounded by demons and ghosts. He joined forces with the other six nations to attack, and although the First Emperor won in the end, it was only a disastrous victory, and the civilization of Xianqin was almost burnt to the ground."

"After the first emperor died with them, the empire had no rivals in the world, but who would have thought that there would be internal turmoil. The eighteenth son pretended to usurp the throne, and the prime minister and the CRRC government order all supported him. Wu Wei, you Can you imagine? When the first emperor was here, the prime minister and the CRRC government order were his most loyal subordinates. They were even important ministers of the Xianqin civilization, with unimaginable power and energy in their hands."

"The crown prince didn't want the empire to be destroyed by civil war. He was already prepared to commit suicide and hand over the empire to the eighteenth son. If Emperor Ye hadn't strongly recommended General Meng to fight for the king, Daqin at that time would have embarked on another track. Even so, Daqin It also left countless hidden dangers. Because of the civil war, the empire lost a lot of power, and had no spare power to pursue the fleeing nobles of the six countries, and was even faintly surpassed by the strength of foreign races."

"Later, alien invasions, world wars against Qin, world wars, time and time again, although the empire won the final victory every time, there is actually an obvious thing that has been overlooked by many people."

"whats the matter?"

Wu Wei listened to what Kong Ming said.

After Lin Shen left, Kong Ming was the most knowledgeable scholar in the empire, and his words would not be aimless.

Looking at Wu Wei, Kong Ming looked serious.

"The enemies encountered by the empire are getting stronger every time, and each time brings more pressure on the empire."

Wu Wei could not refute.

"In the First World War, the empire was almost destroyed. This time, the empire was also in jeopardy. Wu Wei, have you ever thought about it, what if there is a next time?"

"If the Federation is annexed, there will be no next time." Wu Wei said seriously: "When there is only Qin in the world, there will be nothing else that can threaten the empire."

Kong Ming shook his head.

"Wu Wei, how much do we really know about the world?"

"More than 2000 years ago, the empire was in the age of Xianqin civilization. We regarded ourselves as the center of the world, and we didn't even look down on the barbarians in the land beyond our transformation, and we didn't think they could influence us. But now, more than 2000 years later, if If it wasn't for Qi Tian's misjudgment, the empire would be dragged into the quagmire of war by these barbarians, and the country might even be destroyed. Don't forget, when we wiped out the six kingdoms, we also thought that the empire would be invincible, and there was nothing else It can threaten the empire, but now? Are you really sure that the empire will not be threatened if the federation is destroyed?"

"What threats will you receive?" Wu Wei asked.

"Many, Wu Wei, this world is very big, what we conquered is only the tip of the iceberg, and there are still many areas that are not open to us humans. To give the simplest example, the Empire defeated the Federation, and there is only the Empire in the world , then the empire can only be regarded as ruling the land. But the land only accounts for 29.2% of the world's total area, and the sea accounts for 71.8%. Wu Wei, have we conquered the land or the sea?"

Wu Wei couldn't answer.

"Above the ocean, there is the sky. Above the sky, there are stars. The universe is boundless. How many dangers are hidden in the sea of ​​stars, can the empire really handle it?"

"Why do I feel that you are delusional about being persecuted? Why do you have to imagine that the empire will encounter the next enemy?" Wu Wei frowned.

Kong Ming's tone was very affirmative: "Because we will definitely encounter them. From ancient times to the present, many things have proved this point. When the empire is invincible, new enemies will appear. Not even the empire, any race When you are already invincible, danger will come. I understand this situation as the self-protection mechanism of the world, or, the balance measure of heaven."

"It's too mysterious."

"But this exists objectively. Facts are facts. It won't become false just because it's unbelievable. Wu Wei, what I said is true, and I ask you to believe it, and to dissuade the empire, don't kill them all, it's better to keep the federation combat effectiveness. They may not necessarily be our opponents, they may also be our protectors."

"I don't like your pessimism."

Wu Wei actually accepted Kong Ming's idea in his heart.

But it is still impossible for him to accept Kong Ming's approach.

"You only see the danger, but not the opportunity. When there is a crisis, there is an opportunity. While defeating opponents time and time again, the empire is also becoming stronger. You regard this kind of thing as a disaster, but I prefer to regard it as a disaster." hone."

"Not stronger, Wu Wei, the Xianqin Empire more than 2000 years ago was much stronger than it is now." Kong Ming reminded.

"But Xianqin died, and the empire survived. The times are like this, we must adapt. And the present is not as good as the past, not because the wisdom of today's people is not as good as the ancients, and it has more to do with the environment of the world. We are now on the road of science and technology , it may not be worse than the road of Xianqin in the past."

This is another battle of ideas.

Both Wu Wei and Kong Ming are the kind of people with established Taoism, and it is impossible for either of them to convince the other.

Wu Wei didn't intend to convince Kong Ming either, he came to inquire about the crime, but Wu Wei was curious about a question:
"You are one of the five emperors, and you are talented. You should be extremely confident. Why did you become so pessimistic? There must be something in the middle that made you give up resistance and become a capitulator. Let's just muddle along."

"You're right. In order to convince me, Qi Tian brought me along to see a corner of the future."

"A corner of the future? You just said that the Empire will win, but in that future, the Empire must also win the Federation, right?"

"Yes, the empire won, but the empire after the victory is no longer an empire."

"What do you mean?"

"The empire has become a kingdom of gods, and the power of the whole country is enshrining a supreme god, who is also the real emperor of the empire in the future."

"Emperor? First Emperor?" Wu Wei's expression changed.

"No, a young man." After a pause, Kong Ming looked at Wu Wei with a complicated expression: "Somewhat like you."

Hearing this, Wu Wei remembered the conversation between the monk and himself.

"Is it me?"

"No, the timeline doesn't match, but it's still scary."

Wu Wei agreed, this is indeed a terrifying thing.

"Qi Tian wants to change this future, and so do I, so I came here, and that's the whole reason."

After Kong Ming finished speaking, he calmly waited for death.

Wu Weixin said that all these villains are more patriotic than Lao Tzu.

"It's so profound and righteous, so I can start with you~ brother and brother?"

Wu Wei was talking about Kong Ji and Madman Gu.

In this regard, Kong Ming obviously already had a psychological construction.

"From the very beginning, I was ready to use my life to pay back what I owed them. I think they must die. If they don't die, the Federation will not be able to gain an advantage."

"So, you and your brother are really the same kind of people. They don't have the courage to fight head-on. They always think of sideways. Are the Kong family so bloodless?"

Wu Wei still prefers Chang Qing, and even Ye Shaoqiu.

Kong Ming didn't care about it at all.

"Fighting is a kind of bravery, and compromise is also a kind of bravery. We do things in different ways, but we reach the same goal by different routes."

"Don't put a high hat on yourself, it is my shame to be side by side with you." Wu Wei was very disgusted.

"I don't want to convince you, but I want you to know and be mentally prepared. Qi Tian is too anxious, he shouldn't be going to Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum at this time, Wu Wei, you are too anxious, you shouldn't be exterminated now federal."

"Is that all your last words?"

"Yes."

"Very well, then go back with me and accept the trial."

"Huh? You won't kill me?" Kong Ming's eyes widened.

"You will die, but I am not the one who should kill you the most. And I will let everyone know what you said. The final decision must be the entire court."

"Aren't you afraid that they will be persuaded by me?"

"You also know that you definitely won't, otherwise you wouldn't defect and come here. Kong Ming, in your bones, you are really not from Qin."

"But in my opinion, Daqin will last longer."

"When a country gets used to bowing its knees, in Daqin's dictionary, it's not called alive, it's called dead."

Qin people are never afraid of death.

On the battlefield, Qin Jun often showed his breasts, but it often became the enemy's nightmare.

People are not afraid of death, so how can they be afraid of death?
Some people live and just live.

Some people live to stand.
