People in Terra, governing a weird little country

Then Da Yan did exactly that, and everyone had to praise him, saying that this was a good move. As for why the investigation was not conducted earlier? Hasn't this question been answered?

"I'm sorry."

After all, the imperial power is supreme in feudal society. Ernst does not deny that there are many people in the folk who recognize the twelve brothers and sisters of the Sui family, and there are also many who admire and respect them.

But in such a society, it is really questionable how much say ordinary people can have.

This is also why Ernst has never boasted that he is a "spiritual Yan". He would rather say that he is a Kjerag. After all, he was born in Kjerag in this life, and this country is gradually getting better.

As for the Great Yan, no matter how they brag about "man can conquer nature", talk about "the king is the boat and the people are the water", or follow "the people are more important than the king", for any modern Chinese, the best way to refute the Great Yan is to chat with a Yan person for ten minutes.

Because the one representing the "Yan Country" mentioned by Ernst is not the Yan people, or even the Yan Country's "court", but the Yan Country society which has held this attitude towards the "year-olds" for thousands of years and has never thought about truly solving the problem.

"I proposed Kjerag's plan to the Grand Tutor. If Yan Country feels that the Sui Pian is a burden, then Kjerag can accept these giant beasts and set up an education base called the [Giant Beast Re-Education Base]. The Grand Tutor agreed and promised me that he would give me a candidate as soon as possible."

“Re-education…”

Zhongyue was speechless for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

Re-education? Or rather domestication?

They, their brothers and sisters, have been learning about human beings all their lives, so how could they not know where the word "re-education" is often used?

Prisons, juvenile detention centers, special schools.

Only those who lack education or fail in the first round of education need "re-education".

To Yan State, they are also considered "aliens".

Ernst spread his hands and smiled helplessly, trying to ease the serious atmosphere:

"To be honest, Kjerag doesn't have much to teach you. Behemoths know much more than us mortals. I haven't even finished Kjerag's own literacy education yet, and I don't have the time for that."

"You came to Kjerag just to change your environment and start a new life."

Ernst hadn't said anything more.

In fact, Yan Country doesn't care about this so-called re-education. They are satisfied to get rid of this burden. Do they really hope that you will be educated well before returning?

How is that possible? They wish that Sui Pian would not come back so that they can divide up the power of Si Sui Tai! This government office, which was established to "manage the affairs of the giant beast", has really stretched its hands further and further. The Dali Temple, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Works, there are few departments that have not been pointed at by them. They are bullying others with the power of "Sui", and they are almost like the Jinyiwei and the KGB.

The fact that the Grand Tutor was able to so smoothly persuade the high-ranking officials in the court to let Sui Pian escape was also due to the political struggle involved. Now the time has come, both heaven and earth will be on your side!

"The only difference is that this time, the one supervising you will be Yelagund," Ernst concluded.

There are two other behemoths.

Zhongyue added silently.

He pursed his lips and said that he accepted this fact. In fact, he had already noticed it when Ernst mentioned something that the tutor had never told him.

But if he really had to accept it, after all, this was the place where he had lived for hundreds and thousands of years. In his heart, Chongyue had long regarded it as his hometown, so how could he not have any attachment to it?

It's a pity, Dayan, after all, he looked at the Wu Gou and patted the railings, but no one understood his intention to climb up.

He let out a long sigh. For some reason, when he said this, in addition to loneliness and a slight sadness, Zhongyue also felt a sense of relief and liberation.

It was like a ball of thread that had been entangled for thousands of years, unable to be cut or untangled, and now it was finally cut open in an unimaginable way.

"At this point, let me think about it for a while. I will give you an answer before the end of the sports meet."

Ernst nodded, and as he was in high spirits, he gave Chongyue a famous quote from his previous life that was well-known throughout the world and was required to be memorized:

"Don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead, everyone in the world knows you."

PS: This is a huge chapter with 5600 words!

I have combined the Earth Tour that I finally got, the story background of this book, my own understanding of Ernst's position, and my personal feelings to make a relatively complete speculative explanation.

When YJ wrote Yan, it was a bit ugh because everyone who knows it knows it. Compared with the naked tyrant like Duke of Victoria Castle, Yan's plot so far has so many plots, and there is no pure villain, and no one's purpose is "for himself".

Everyone talks about caring about the world, but their different positions make them seem hypocritical. The general said that Shanhai was the mastermind behind the scenes, and then he also blamed Sun Xiaochuan, saying that it was all my fault and I washed my hands of it. The Yan official in the story of Huai Shuli thought that he would see a person who only cared about the overall situation and did not care about the sacrifice of the people, but in the end he was not.

But it is such a group of good people who have gathered together and lived in this country for thousands of years. They have not expanded outward, and the country has been stable and prosperous internally. With a population of hundreds of millions, they have been forced to pull a complete military fortress and most of the army exploded to solve the problem. It is hard to say what they have been doing for these thousands of years.

As for the fact that Yan Nation was fighting against the sea heirs and the evil demons at the same time, so it couldn't solve the problem of the year, this argument is very strange. Ursus also fought against the evil demons, but they could launch a great conquest, overthrow half of Terra, and come back without delay to continue fighting. Iberia also fought against the sea heirs, and they were crazy sea heirs. The country was so rotten, the deep sea cultists were everywhere, and the lighthouse facilities were all destroyed. It still relied on the Grand Inquisitor and the Punishment Army to hold on for decades.

Not to mention, the problem of sea urchins has only officially emerged in the past few decades. Previously, sea urchins were basically harmless and were even used by Iberians as ornamental objects (Land Tour)

What, is Yan Country longer than Ursus's northern border, or worse than Iberia? Before the rise of Haisi, the northern border was not as long as Ursus, and only resisting the evil spirits could not solve the problem of the year? Solving a dying year is more difficult than overturning half of Terra?

Not to mention, it was not Yan Guo who was the only one who was thinking about solving Sui Pian's problem. Just like in the current Yan Guo plot, Sui Pian himself was also asking for help. It was Yan Guo himself who was arrogant and refused to cooperate and wanted to solve it together. Si Sui Tai had never seen Sui Pian without a sour face and questioning him at the beginning.

The only reasonable speculation is that they are aware of the problem, but have no intention of solving it.

It can only be said that after the Earth Patrol came out, the most clownish country was indeed Yan State.

Chapter 411: I got drunk and dreamed about my elder brother

Yan State, Shang Shu, Three Mountains and Seventeen Peaks, and Unnamed Peak.

"When you are drunk, you don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that overwhelm the stars."

Ling had a dream, in which she saw her elder brother whom she had not seen for a long time. Shuo... or should I say Chongyue now, had his back to her, reciting poems that she had never heard of.

It was just a fragment of a poem, but Ling felt from the bottom of her heart that it seemed to be written for her.

"After getting drunk, I didn't know the sky was over the water, and the boat was full of clear dreams pressing down on the stars. What a good poem, what a good poem."

He chanted this poem over and over again, jumping up from the pavilion above the sea of ​​clouds and slowly walking towards the figure of Zhongyue, sighing from the bottom of his heart:

"Oh my, it's been a while since we last met. Big brother, are you planning to destroy my job?"

"After hearing this, I, your sister, will be scratching my head for decades."

Zhongyue turned around, with a hint of smile on his face, and shook his head slightly:

"It has indeed been a long time since we last met. Ever since you retired from the army and left the border, it must have been a hundred years since we last met, right?"

"A hundred years? Is it that long?"

Ling blinked his eyes, as if a little surprised, but then shook his head casually.

"It's okay, it's okay. Life is just a dream. If you can't live it to the fullest, what difference does a hundred years make compared to a day?"

This is Ling’s philosophy of life: freedom.

Those who left me, yesterday's day cannot be kept. Those who disturbed my heart, today's day is full of worries. If one day can be full and satisfying, then she would rather this day be her whole life, hearing the truth in the morning and dying in the evening. The so-called long rest of life, the rest is all a big dream, nothing more than the "sorrow" that can be abandoned and disturbed in the heart.

And since you are worried, you should just draw your sword to cut the water and raise your cup to dispel your worries!

Therefore, wine is also the thing that Ling loves most in his life.

She took off the wine flask from her waist that seemed to never be empty, and gently lifted her arm, which was painted with mysterious dark blue colors, in the air. A wine cup appeared in her palm. She filled a cup for herself, drank it in one gulp, and then asked:

"What do you want from me, brother?"

The Zhongyue in front of him was naturally Zhongyue himself.

Ling's dream has this ability to communicate with people across space and distance through the Yellow Millet Dream. In ancient times, this dream was often used by her to observe what mortals thought in their dreams, so it also triggered many legends related to it, such as the Yellow Millet Dream, the Dream of Zhou Gong, and the Dream of Lan Ke...

For quite a long time, a new profession even emerged in Yan State - dream interpreter.

This kind of Jianghu charlatan is still very popular today. Even though Ling rarely enters the dreams of mortals, there are always some people who hope to find some omens from their dreams. Ling is also somewhat helpless about this.

This is the mentality of many Yan country people. If the interpretation is accurate, it means the dream interpreter is capable. If the interpretation is inaccurate, it means the dream interpreter is incapable. After all, dreams contain information. It is better to believe it than not to believe it.

In fact, this is not surprising. Sui and Sui Beast agents are closely related to the history of Yan State. It can even be said that the giant beast itself is closely related to the history of Yan State. Some idioms, allusions, and even professions born because of the giant beast are still active on the stage of history today, even though many of them have deviated from their original connotations.

For example, Simuitai.

Perhaps because he was woken up suddenly, he couldn't help but have a few more random thoughts in his mind. He shook his head and looked at his elder brother who had taken advantage of his convenient dream passage.

It was easy for her to enter other people's dreams, but it was not easy for others to enter her dreams. At least in Ling's understanding, even the second brother could not do this.

As for the eldest brother [Shuo], he can do it, but he seldom does so. He always pays special attention to and respects the privacy and dignity of his younger siblings, and rarely disturbs them unless there is an emergency.

Therefore, when Zhongyue suddenly found her this time, she had to take it seriously.

Zhongyue looked helplessly at his drunken sister who had just woken up and started drinking again, and sighed:

"Ling, you are the eldest sister too, you should be more reliable. Drinking all day is not a good thing. I am wondering if I should go to Shu to discuss this."

"Shu is not as easy to find as me, brother."

Ling smiled casually, and there was something rogue in that smile.

This was not the first time that she had been scolded by Zhongyue for this matter. She had long been unafraid of the idea. Back then, when she was stationed at the border, Zhongyue had reminded her countless times that drinking was forbidden in the barracks. She agreed on the surface, but she still drank secretly.

One sip doesn't count as drinking, two sips doesn't count as drinking, three sips: "Hey, why is your boiled water tasteless?"

Accept it humbly, never repent, and just drink it!

"Brother, you didn't come here just to scold me, did you?" Ling said with a smile.

Zhongyue pursed his lips and sighed helplessly:

"Hey, give me a bowl too."

Ling was stunned: "Ah?"

"Give me a bowl of wine too!" Zhongyue rolled his eyes and pointed at the wine jug.

Ling took a breath of the cold air between the clouds and mist, which really felt like swallowing clouds and exhaling smoke.

She once again confirmed the serious expression on Zhongyue's face, and it was at this moment that she really realized that this matter was serious!

..........

Zhongyue sat cross-legged in the pavilion, and finally, under Ling's shocked and embarrassed gaze, he raised his head and drank the wine on the dish.

The spicy taste rushed into his throat, moistened his internal organs, and turned into a heat and passion, which seemed to warm up Zhongyue's human body.

It’s hard to imagine how Ling Pingchang could drink this and fall asleep at the same time.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Looking at Zhongyue's somewhat worried expression, Ling asked cautiously.

Zhongyue shook his head: "Nothing."

He paused, and suddenly asked: "Ling, do you still want to stay in Yan Country?"

Ling was stunned again: "What?"

Zhongyue continued, “If there is a chance for us brothers and sisters to leave this country and avoid the [year-old] problem, would you be willing?”

Ling was stunned.

Even with her intelligence, she was somewhat skeptical at this moment. Did [Shuo]'s human body have a constitution that would make him drunk after one glass or two glasses? Otherwise, how could he say such nonsense after drinking?

She opened her mouth and revealed a somewhat awkward smile:

"Brother, I don't mean to say, where can we go?"

Unexpectedly, Zhongyue replied calmly, "Shelagh."

The corner of Ling's mouth twitched: "Will Yan Country agree?"

Zhongyue replied again: "This is their wish."

The smile on Ling's face gradually disappeared. After a long silence, she asked:

"What about Sui? Our fate is always tied to Sui. Even if we go far away, as long as Sui wakes up, we will come back. What's the point?"

[Sui] is the superior of all [Sui Beast Agents]. As a third-level behemoth that can compete for the strongest behemoth in history, He is essentially immortal, just as Kal'tit had explained.

As long as He awakens from the chaos of ignorance, no matter how far the [Year Beast Agent] goes, it will eventually be sucked in by Him. This is an inescapable fate.

The reason why Ling pursues the ultimate freedom and the satisfaction of turning hundreds of years of life into a day and a night is because, they, the brothers and sisters, are the least free group of people in the world.

Only those who feel like a knife is always around their neck, not knowing when it will fall, will have all sorts of fantasies about the beautiful "future".

The things that cannot be obtained are the most precious, and they will make people's hearts restless forever.

What is lacking, make up for it.

This question is a dead end for all Sui Beast agents. In the past, it’s not that no one tried to leave this land, but firstly, the Si Sui Tai pressed on step by step, restricting their actions, and secondly, for them, no matter how far they go, what’s the point? In the end, don’t they all return to their roots?

Even the most powerful [Shuo] among them couldn't solve this problem, let alone the current [Zhongyue].

Ling thought that Zhongyue would remain silent as usual this time, but to her surprise, Zhongyue did not even pause for a moment, and answered as briefly as he answered the previous two questions:

"Shelagh has a behemoth willing to help us."

"At least three, two of whom are younger than [years old], and one who is no younger than [years old]."
