Son of the Tower

Chapter 498
Talk like a northernist.

The old lady of the Dolan Sheer family looked at the young man in front of her and sighed in her heart. It's not that she and her husband have never seen the beauty of Northernism, nor have they never sympathized with them. It's a pity that they are weak and weak. And the money in this world does not need their existence, and capital will instinctively reject these people who live with their dreams.

At that time, she, her husband, and many of her peers felt that Northernism had failed. They didn’t have enough to eat, and they didn’t have enough clothes, whether it was in the western land and the northern border, or in the four eastern islands, or in other places. Everywhere, Northernism seems to be failing.

So she and her husband finally chose to serve the one who will win in the end. It is better to live than to die.

But she didn't expect that among the five children she brought up, except for the eldest who lost his wife and children in the early years, the remaining few children either secretly fell into the arms of the Military Intelligence Bureau, or went to southern Thailand to join the high tower.

Just because the way of the family is not their way, the light on that way is not their light.

They don't think that Northernism has failed. The previous situation was just a cycle of tides and eves. The moon waxes and wanes, and ideals and reality are the same.

Thinking of this, the old lady was sad, because she knew that this era has changed, and the younger generation has been exposed to too many ideological collisions. In their opinion, if believing in gods can enter the kingdom of gods after death, why not do it while alive? Build one yourself for the glory.

What's more, gods are not very popular in this era. After all, everyone knows that the so-called gods are just the lucky ones who have obtained the priesthood, and will eventually be transformed into puppets by the priesthood.

Thinking of this, the old lady looked at the little Mr. Gaota in front of her. She didn't hate him, because as her own children, they were doomed to die—those who resisted the agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau did not end well.

She even wanted to thank him for not killing her grandchildren: "Sir, are you so sure, maybe you won't change, but someone will always change, history tells everyone that a civilized country has no eternity , there are not even gods, how can you guarantee that the people who inherit your will will always be perfect people."

"There is no need for guarantees, ma'am, we just did what we should do. Some sages said that the success does not have to be mine, I can also borrow it from the cheek. Maybe the world finally rejects us, but 'we have come' these four The meaning of words is far greater than 'we exist'."

The young man stood up with a smile at this point: "Madam, we just want to make this land free from hunger, so that everyone can live like one person and have their own pursuits, every laborer can get food, every Innocents can go out at night without worrying about the presence of bandits."

"...You guys can't do it, it's too great, so great that even gods can't do it." The old lady said here and looked at the little fox: "Son, can you tell me that if one day , everyone on the four islands is like a family, you and your friends can call you brothers, even a farmer's child can pursue you openly, are you willing?"

Ling Lan was silent for a while, and then asked cautiously: "I don't know, but if this is the case, will there be no assassins who want to kill my father? If that is the case, I am willing."

The old lady felt that she had become a young man of her grandson's generation again, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Yes, if there is such a day... that's fine." She smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of her husband.

You see, my generation failed, but the doctrine never seems to fail, and now there are people who are ahead of us, and they are full of confidence, and they are far stronger than us.

………………

Mars looked at the old lady in front of him, she seemed to be reminiscing what Lily of the Valley said. For Mars, Lily of the valley's willingness made him feel the child's kindness from the bottom of his heart.

The old lady quickly expressed that she was tired and wanted to rest, which was no problem. Mars naturally asked an agent to take the old man to her room to rest—in order to avoid this being bombed into the sky again, Mars could only Make this bad move.

When the old man left, Ling Lan turned her head and looked at Mars: "Sir, will there really be such a future, a future where everyone is like a family, without jealousy, without resentment, without hatred..." "Such a future requires us to Work hard." Mars doesn't want to let Lily of the Valley know everything now, she is still young, and some things will have to wait until later.

Lily of the Valley listened and seemed very happy, but Mars understood that such a world... could not exist until all the blood was shed.

People are different, and Mars has been seeking common ground while reserving differences, but as Mars knows, some people can be friends, some can fight, and some... can only be enemies.

Such a person may be able to win over by giving away some benefits, but the teacher said that if the favor is given too much, the fight will change the taste, and such a person can be a friend today, or an enemy tomorrow, because they are not sincerely convinced Based on this theory, they are only tempted by interests.

He said that throughout the ages, such people are not worthy of being friends.

So Mars didn't want to tell Lily of the truth, she was still young, and there was no need to know why adults sometimes didn't mind getting blood on their hands.

When she grows up, Mars will teach her like a mentor, and Mars will not stop her from what kind of person she wants to be.

But Mars still hopes that his little apprentice can become his friend, because Mars doesn't want to kill his apprentice one day in order to defend his ideal.

"Sir, your expression looks so heavy. Lily of the valley may have asked the wrong question." The little fox reached out and grabbed Mars by the tail.

Mars smiled and shook his head: "No, Lily of the Valley performed very well today, by the way, I want to eat something at noon."

"Zhajiang Noodles." Ling Lan stretched out her hand and grabbed Mars's hand: "I don't think sir is in a good mood recently, please don't worry, sir."

"Okay." Marcus replied with a smile.

Yes, why should you be in a hurry? Thinking so, Mars scratched Lily of the Valley's chin: "We'll eat when your sisters come back."

The little fox narrowed his eyes and hummed while enjoying the happiness.

Mars understands why his mentor likes to be the children's mentor.

Because there is a sense of accomplishment in cultivating them.
