The Legend Of Beishang
179. War Preparation
"Ck, you have underestimated her too far and you will regret it in the future. The hatred we both have right now, won't stop here. " Say Chu Huli while grinning.
Upon seeing it more clearly, both of Chu Huli's hands were tied tightly at the pole that was behind Chu Huli and her legs were also chained.
In other words, Chu Linfei had confined Chu Huli in this dark and crowded place. Who would have thought that a friendly elder like Chu Linfei actually had a black heart ?
"Even if you reincarnate 10 more times, you still can't catch up with me, Huli. " Chu Linfei said with a sinister smile.
"Do you really think so ? Then I will wait where my pawn moves and make you regret for having said this to me. " Chu Huli said with a sweet smile.
Chu Huli's handsome face seemed to glow under this deadly ferocity and looked extremely frightening.
"All right, I'm waiting for that. Don't disappoint me, my sister. Let your brother see how far you can go. " Chu Linfei said crazily.
"Of course, I can't possibly disappoint my older brother who has been traveling for a long time. Take it easy, the gift will not only not disappoint you but will also make you very happy. " Say Chu Huli with an evil sneer.
Everyone could clearly see that here, this blood brother and sister were extremely crazy and ambitious.
Killing each other just to get the throne, perhaps the saying is true that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.
One of them must die or leave otherwise the two will continue to fight without caring if their fight disrupts other living beings.
"Good, great, this brother will be waiting for you, my dear brother. " Chu Linfei said then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Sister, wait and see, that what you've been doing all this time is faithfulness. " Shouted Chu Huli.
Chu Linfei was unaffected and did not turn to look at his sister again and walked away indifferently.
While the imprisoned Chu Huli only laughed coldly with great hatred, anyone who heard that laughter would feel that the cold was piercing their bones viciously and that their hair would stand in fear.
Chu Huli's handsome face showed a ruthless smile that was never shown to anyone.
"Whatever I want, no one can get it but me. If I don't get it then nobody else can either. " Chu Huli's murmur was accompanied by her crazy laughter.
Chu Huli continued to laugh which made her feet move which gave rise to the sound of chain friction that hurt her ears in the coldness of the dark room.
"Nobody can get it but me ! Ha ha ha, I am the successor of Heaven and envoy of Heaven !" Raung Chu Huli was proudly inside that dark room.
Next day
In the Tang Dynasty, Lin Beishang early in the morning had woken up and helped Lin Yue to put on the armor.
"Heart, the battlefield this time was not just against the kingdom or the small Empire but the barbarian tribes and mountain men. " Said Lin Beishang seriously.
"Just calm down, I won't underestimate the fight this time. " Said Lin Yue.
"Yue, on the battlefield, don't get too involved with personal feelings. " Message Lin Beishang gently and put on Lin Yue's armor.
"I will tell you a story, there used to be a general who was the most powerful and invincible general until finally his wife became a prisoner of the enemy and the enemy asked him to open the gate to give his wife. If you become him then what do you do ? " Task Lin Beishang gently.
"Of course open the gates and save my family. " Say Lin Yue without hesitation.
"You're wrong, the general refused to open the gate and told people to start shooting enemies mercilessly including himself, The general looked at his wife who turned into an archery board and slowly the land fell down with tears but refused to open the gate, what do you think ?" Ask Lin Beishang.
"It was too cruel, I wouldn't have done that if I had been him. It doesn't deserve to be an award. " She complained Lin Yue.
"You're wrong, if I were him then I would do the same. The general had done his best and his composure when facing the enemy was his best. Do you think if the gate is opened then will his wife survive ? How many people will die under that gate ? One life paid for with a thousand lives, it's not worth it. " Say Lin Beishang said gently and patiently, but there was no emotion in his voice.
Anyone who hears this story will feel that their hair is standing on end and their heart is cold.
"Why is that ? After that, does life still mean ?" Asked Lin Yue did not understand.
"Why does life become meaningless ? Everything is a choice, which makes it meaningful or not is our own. Suppose that I am a cold-hearted person for saying this, but if you want to become the future Emperor, how could you not make up your mind for this ?" Lin Beishang asked with understanding.
"I.... " Lin Yue had no way of answering anymore.
"You can't save everyone, to get something you have to pay for it. This fee can be very expensive or very cheap. " Said Lin Beishang.
Lin Yue was speechless and did not dare to reply anymore, Lin Beishang sighed gently and did not push Lin Yue any further.
Lin Yue was still lacking in understanding about human cruelty, one could tell that they loved her very much today.
But, that guy could stab her in the next day. So, no one can be trusted except yourself.
In the end, Lin Yue still did not understand this principle, in contrast to him who had comprehended all of this, not only comprehended but he had also undergone it directly.
"So, indirectly you want if there are hostages then there is no need to see them right ?"Asked Lin Yue.
"Not so, you have to look at the situation and be able to decide. You think you're doing this for no reason ? This is of course done so that you can make a decision. Do you think father can take his present position only with the tenderness he showed you ? Of course not, the competition for the throne is very sharp and painful. The price to pay was huge, look at the lonely and frightened father at all times, it was his pay to get his current position. " Said Lin Beishang hatefully.
I don't know how many people died for this position of Emperor, it might even include his mother's family who used to pave the way to Lin Xi's Emperor's throne.
"Is that really that scary ? If it's that scary, why do people scramble to sit on the throne ?" Asked Lin Yue did not understand.
"Because, they felt that if they became Emperors then they would become leaders but they did not know that they were merely puppets. " Say Lin Beishang coldly.
"Do you want to be Emperor ?" Asked Lin Yue.
"I don't want to be the Emperor, I want to be the controller of the puppet instead of being his puppet. " Say Lin Beishang said with a small laugh and the atmosphere turned into a silence and awkwardness.
The two people were immersed in each other's thoughts and the ambitions they had.
