Longmen Memoirs

Of course she has to become a villain, because the enemies of Ursus and the infected, the nobles and conspiracy careerists, will not be afraid of a good person who will not kill people or do evil.

Good people are easily defeated. Only good people will be pointed at guns, but evil people will not, because evil people will really get angry and kill.

Chen Mo thought that Tallulah could always figure it out and she was never stupid.

She will understand that one day she will have to make sacrifices and concessions for her ideals and career. This is a process that those who want to achieve great things must go through and make choices.

Just like Theresia, just like Wei Na, just like Wei Yanwu, just like the former... Chen Mo himself.

Chen Mo knows this too well. She knows that for those in power, good or bad is a vague noun that can be changed rather than an adjective. He knows that right and wrong have limitations and selfishness.

The enemy's rightness corresponds to one's own mistakes, and the enemy's goodness corresponds to one's own badness.

To talk about right and wrong regardless of one's position is to ignore the facts. It is to tell lies with one's eyes open, to pick up the bowl to eat, and to put down the bowl to curse.

Sometimes people have to distinguish these, and the only way to distinguish is to weigh the pros and cons, so those in power often gradually ignore and despise death. They have become one of the established rules, and no longer need to look for someone to do what they want. Judge.

Once a person is determined to fight for more people, she is no longer living just for herself, and the choices she makes should not only take into account her own personal gains and losses and emotions.

Except for children, no one will think that killing is cool, and no one will think that heroes are flowers, honors and applause. Most of them can't see the blood and scars under the beauty. They can only see the shiny empty shell. , prompting children to fantasize about heroes and great deeds.

This is neither good nor bad.

[To the infected leader of the integration movement, Tallulah Atrias:

When you read this letter, I have already left Ursus. Perhaps when we meet again, many things will have changed beyond our expectations.

I hope you have arrived safely in Chernobog, and I leave these words and some thoughts on the front pages of this book to pass on to you, Alina.

How many infected people are there in a large-scale movement of one million people like Chernobog?

One to twenty thousand or three to forty thousand, this ratio is pitiful compared to the huge urban population base, and due to Ursus' strict policy on infected people, this ratio has to be considered lower.

If the proportion of infected people in Ursus Mobile City accounts for one-tenth of the city, I think there are only two possibilities. Ursus wants to incorporate the infected into the citizen system. This force is too huge to ignore and suppress, or A traitor appeared in Ursus' policy towards the infected, and everyone in Ursus began to accept the infected.

If Ursus has a population of about 8000 million, how many infected people account for it? Counting the infected communities who fled to the wilderness and the snowfields of the North, there are about 400 million people. This means that there is one infected person for every [-] people. This ratio is still Too high.

And it is this group of infected people that accounts for 5.00% of the total national population. They need to fight against the entire Ursus, they need to defeat Ursus and establish their own political power. They need this group of wilderness with no land, no technology, and no industry. The refugees went against the entire Ursus, not counting those who were unwilling to confront the Ursus army, the infected workers in the mines who were strictly controlled by Ursus, and the infected who left for various reasons or left to die. , they have not become the family members of the infected person, they are not the old and young of the infected person, or the old and young of the infected person.

People have seven emotions and six desires.

How to overcome the natural barrier of Originium Disease and fight with less than 5.00% of infected people.

To turn everyone into infected, or to make Originium Disease no longer contagious?Cure Originium Disease?If you can do this, why bother fighting? What's the point of fighting?

If the infected want to change their situation, they must not distinguish themselves from the entire Ursus, and treat themselves and ordinary people as two species.

The lifespan of infected people is too short, and the development of Originium Industry has made cases of infection with Originium Disease more and more frequent. This ratio will remain at a relatively stable level for a long time, and as the Originium Industry continues to develop Rise slowly.

This is the advantage of the infected, and it is the greatest advantage of the infected in this struggle for rights and dignity.

The vigorous development of the Originium industry in modern times was the period when the problem of infected people broke out most seriously and acutely. This was the darkest era for the infected people and the entire earth.

There are fierce internal conflicts in Ursus, and infected people are just one of the most conspicuous problems thrown up in this huge empire and even the entire land.

The infected cannot replace and assume the responsibilities and obligations that 90.00% of the citizens of Five Ursus need to bear, and the infected cannot become the most important pillar and cornerstone that supports the weight of this huge empire and this land.

If the infected want to change their situation, they must find a way to integrate themselves into the national system of Ursus, as a patient, not an alien, and turn the Originium disease into a disease rather than a curse.

This is the only way to solve the fate and situation of the infected under the premise of incurable disease. The existence of Originium technology and industry has destined that no country on the earth can put aside and ignore the existence of the infected, and it is also destined to use People who use Originium skills and products are likely to be infected with Originium disease.

This is the second advantage of the infected, and what you need to do as an infected is to combine these two advantages to integrate yourself into ordinary people.

Eliminate stereotypes about infected people, improve their treatment, strengthen the prevention of high-risk infections, favor social welfare benefits for infected people, and give infected people the most basic rights that a normal citizen should have.

This is the ultimate goal we need to pursue in our struggle as an infected person.

No matter which one of them seems to be a distant luxury in the current period, no matter which one it is, it can be a worthy cause for the infected to seek a legitimate reason to fight.

Rather than seeking revenge, venting, pursuing unrealistic and illusory ideals, and seeking short-lived so-called rights and freedoms.

In this process, the infected are brought together to seek friends and collaborators whose interests are consistent or non-conflicting, whether they are nobles seeking rights in Ursus, factory owners trying to liberate the productivity of serfs, and those who are dissatisfied with the oppressive policies of Ursus. civil strugglers, and even nobles from various fiefdoms.

The enemies of the infected are changing at any time, and the infected themselves must also adapt to changes in the situation.

If they do not want to become a victim in the power struggle in Ursus, the infected must maintain their own initiative in this power conflict. Before the conflict in Ursus breaks out, the infected need to constantly make trade-offs, even secretly. Deliberately instigating civil and power conflicts in Ursus to protect his position.

I know you don't like these conspiracies, but the infected don't have much room for choice, at least not now.

Before the contradictions and conflicts in Ursus completely break out, the best thing for the infected people to do is to retreat to the snowfields of the North. After finding enough resources and technology in the south and gaining the support of the infected people in the south, the infected people should avoid Ursus. South, where conflicts over SARS rights are becoming increasingly serious.

Going south, going north, and going south again, these are the three stages of the development of the struggle of the infected, corresponding to the varying degrees of rights and conflicts in Ursus, or if Ursus can successfully resolve the contradiction between industrial development and system collision. Caused various problems, infected people still have to wait a long time.

I am not optimistic that the current Ursus royal family has this ability. Witte is a qualified tailor, but those slave owners and farmers will not let their serfs enter the factory, and the emperor cannot let the various vassals and The Grand Duke vigorously developed industry, strengthened the army, and attacked power, so conflicts were foreseeable.

The contradiction between the central and local governments is increasing day by day. The dispersion of power makes the royal family unable and unable to promote reforms with peace of mind. The new emperor does not have the toughness and prestige of the previous emperor. The top military officials have already lost trust in the royal family due to the great rebellion that took place 20 years ago when the new emperor succeeded to the throne. When the empire lost infected people as its main means of diverting conflicts, it had to face various crises that broke out in the country.

War is often the fastest way to divert a crisis, and war is also the fastest way to collapse an empire.

The infected can seek change in this transformation of Ursus, and this time will continue to move forward with the struggle between the royal family and the nobility of Ursus.

Tallulah, what I want to tell you is that the struggle of the infected is not impossible, and these possibilities will reflect its significance with everything the infected do in this change. ——Chen Mo]

It is often said that someone who is half a step ahead of his time is a genius, and one step ahead of his time is a madman.

Chen Mo didn't know who he was.

He is just jumping out of the limitations of the times in a rogue way and combining two actual backgrounds to look at some problems that have not yet happened and are happening now, and try to imagine one of the possibilities.

This is not because of how smart and foresight he is. This is his biggest and only gift when he comes to this strange world. He is unable to guide people. He can only tell those who have the ability to learn what he knows and let them do it themselves. Distinguish and think.

Both Theresia and Tallulah.

He has never been worthy of any so-called mentor. He is just an ordinary person who has taken advantage of something and has a little knowledge.

Because the real difficulty is never the truth, but thinking about these things and realizing them, because all systems and reforms must be realized and destroyed by people. No one can be right forever or remain unchanged.

Chapter 131 Never be the one who waits

[Sarkazi is the fallen Sarkota, and Sarkota is the unfallen Sarkarz. They have always been like this. 】

------

April 1

Central and southern Ursus, Keqin Valley

"leader……"

"Uh-huh."

"You seem to be a little depressed these days."

"It's nothing, don't worry." Tallulah closed the diary in her hand. The yellowed pages looked like they were old. Reid glanced at it without asking any questions. Tallulah looked at Reid in front of her.

"Have the soldiers settled down?"

"The camp has been set up. The scouts found no traces of pickets or Ursus Rangers nearby. Our current location is safe."

"That's good, but don't be careless. We are not familiar with the surrounding terrain. We must pay attention to arranging sentries responsible for keeping watch at night and tell the soldiers that it is not time to relax yet."

"Everyone knows it."

"How far is it from the nearest gathering place?"

"It's about three days' journey. If you hurry, we can arrive the day after tomorrow in the afternoon."

"Have the liaison officers been sent out?"

"Pavel already set off with the messenger yesterday. It is expected that he will arrive at the gathering place tomorrow. If everything goes well, we can continue to set off and meet them before tomorrow afternoon."

"It's not yet certain. We don't know the attitude and situation of the infected people's colony at the moment. Whether the other party is trustworthy and willing to cooperate with us. People in the previous colony are very wary of our arrival." Tallulah frowned slightly and thought for a few seconds: "Before this, we need to be prepared, but the specific situation will be discussed after Pavel and Trust come back. We still have many infected people in the settlements and towns. There is a need for engagement and integration.”

Her frown gradually relaxed, she looked at the camp set up in the valley not far away, and stood up.

She felt a little uneasy for some reason.

"Is the bonfire lit? What's for dinner today? Red."

"The soldiers accidentally captured an elk beast in the wilderness, and in exchange for some dried vegetables from the town they passed last week."

Red replied, walking towards the camp behind Tallulah.

"No wonder I can smell the fragrance from so far away." Tallulah smiled: "Let's go, don't keep the soldiers waiting too long."

"Yes."

The integration movement, or the ongoing movement to integrate the large and small infected settlements and forces in southern Ursus, according to Tallulah's vision, is starting little by little with Chernobog as a new starting point.

there is a question.

A man and a woman who have feelings for each other that are more than friends do not have any more physically intimate contact after the woman agrees. I asked what the reason is.

There are only two answers, either the man doesn't like this girl, or he has some concerns. After ruling out the most direct option of being infected with Originium Disease, the only possibility left for the man is that maybe he still loves another woman.

Analyzing from the logic of his usual behavior, the man has been to Longmen and rarely talks about the woman’s sister. It seems that he is deliberately avoiding this issue.

Tallulah could already figure out the answer.

If she didn't make any assumptions in this direction at the beginning, then when she started to be so suspicious, Chen Mo exposed more and more doubts that he usually didn't pay much attention to.

Chen Mo didn't think about hiding it, he just didn't think about how to say it. Maybe Tallulah would know sooner or later, maybe it would be a good thing for them that she didn't ask directly.

The key to the problem is when did she start to notice this, before she decided to go south or after she decided to go south. Chen Mo was more inclined to the former. Therefore, Chen Mo who stayed in the camp and Tallulah who led the team south, there was a conflict between them. Both can leave enough time for each other to think about how to face this problem.

For Tallulah, after realizing and confirming this, she could not help feeling disappointed but also a little lucky and unspeakably relaxed. She felt a little indebted to Hui Jie, and her career destined her to be unable to make any promises.

Maybe this should be a good thing. Compared with the career of the infected who doesn't know when it will end, Chen Mo has different ambitions from her after all, even though he stayed in the camp of the infected, even though because of his The infected even received aid from Kazdel.

What people can never do is use reason【>

She would also be in a daze because of this, and sometimes she couldn't help but think of Hui Jie, but if she had any complaints against Hui Jie and Chen Mo because of this, she felt that she was not qualified to think so.

It's just that time separates people, and in a way that no one can imagine, the process of separation leads to an ending that is completely different from what they imagined.

Tallulah just needs some time to convince herself. Maybe she will be able to face this problem well after going back south. Whether it is Chen Mo or the sister she has not seen for more than ten years, after everything that happened between them, maybe she can still Asked something about Hui Jie.

Tallulah missed her a little.

She occasionally writes letters to Hui Jie. Although those letters can never be sent out, Tallulah has always wanted to say something to Hui Jie since what happened in the village, when she was in exile with the infected. Life was not good in the wilderness. Occasionally, we had to face harassment from pickets. Even when we were alive, we felt uneasy. Later, we met guerrillas and joined them in the snowfield, but life was still difficult. Sometimes we had to boil tree bark. , plowing grass seeds. The grass seeds in winter are covered with heavy snow, and her hands are covered with chilblains when plowing. Those things are unpalatable, bitter and astringent, but Alina can still smile and say that it is good to have something to eat. , she has always been easily satisfied and does not want to cause trouble to others.

She put her hands behind her back so that no one could see her trembling hands that were hurt by the frostbitten sores. If she hadn't discovered them early, her hands might have been disabled long ago.

What can a group of infected people fleeing with nowhere to go expect? It is absolutely impossible to be glamorous, and not being in rags is the best situation, but the night on the snowfield is still surprisingly cold.

The old man loved to talk about how nutritious he was, but Tallulah just felt that she had had enough.

But what else could we do? If we didn’t even have this little food, we would have to go hungry, and whether we ran away or fought against the pickets when we were hungry, there would be no good outcome.

No one will come to rescue the infected, and no one will look at them and provide them with food. Countless infected people have died of illness and starvation in the snowy fields. The guerrillas cannot help so many people, and no one can help so many people. You have to fight hard to keep yourself alive.

That was the most difficult time.

After all, they are just a group of infected people, a group of helpless and terrifying monsters with Origin Stones on their bodies.

Sometimes it would be nice if she felt that she had no sense of taste. Sometimes she couldn't help but feel sad while eating, but she didn't want to just back down, and her stubbornness and stubbornness did not allow her to be defeated in the face of this kind of suffering. .

She does not believe that there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

She didn't believe that infected people could only be allowed to live like this.

She didn't believe that this was right, nor did she believe what the insidious old snake said was in their bones.

No one is born to suffer.

No one is born into slavery.

No one is born a bad person.

Tallulah doesn't believe this, she never has. She believes that infected people are not born for this. She overestimates the goodness in human nature, even if the path she embarks on for this purpose is destined to lead to death from the beginning. destroy.

Fate always likes to take away what people expect.

She was still very young at that time, always had many ideas, denounced and criticized the world, and was upright and naive.

Maybe that’s how things are in the world.

Kind and upright people always suffer ups and downs. Maybe she should have been able to choose a better life, whether she returned to Longmen or wandered around.

Even if she becomes an infected person, she already has the power to control her own destiny, and she is completely able to stay out of it.

But just like she voluntarily chose to become an infected person, just like she spurned the black snake and chose the self-destruction that the other party said, maybe she didn't have any idea of ​​saving the infected person at the beginning.

Perhaps Draco's red dragon just wanted to use this method to ridicule and get rid of the black snake who tried to control her destiny and mock her life from the beginning, making his despicable conspiracy a ridiculous joke, whether she chose to quietly modify the decree to improve it The treatment of the infected was that she privately let the Ursus officer who leaked the secret go.
