Yuanshen: The sea of ​​sand at the beginning, straight to the seat of God

Chapter 82 - The Truth Is in My Hands
The rally had a common answer.

Shazaman, who has no dissent, mortgages Dina Zedai's personal safety and part of the wealth of Humayi's family to the Holy Order to ensure that he really has no dissent.

Even though the challenger has no evidence, you still have to come up with something to prove your innocence, not the other person to prove your guilt.

This is the prerogative of the Holy Order.

And the Holy Order, which is the party that accepts the bargaining chip, should take an appropriate measure to tell Shazaman and tell more people that the Holy Order has not doubted them, and everyone is still a family.

This is an exchange of trust.

The response of the Holy Order will fall on Shazaman in the form of benefits, and how much he gets is the response of the Holy Order.

And everyone's answer is to turn Dina Zede into a student of the sage.

The value of a teacher in the society of scholars is self-evident. Everyone knows that Dina Zedai's body cannot support her to study anything. This is just a part of the exchange of interests.

A reasonable exchange of benefits is the compensation an innocent victim should get when he still has to prove his loyalty.

This consensus was quickly sent to the ears of the sages, and Azar opened a temporary meeting.

Strictly speaking, he hates the conference system. Many decisions must be approved by the majority before they can be used. This decision is too stupid.

But he is only a great sage, and the six sages have been the common interests of Sumeru for thousands of years.

He can't fight the rules.

The Holy Order and the Six Sages are the ones who make the rules, and the rules and laws of Sumeru are naturally biased towards the Holy Order and the Six Sages.

And the great sage is just the most powerful one among the six sages, not the only one with power.

[Perhaps we should look for an opportunity to turn the six sages into the only great sage? 】

Azar's mind fluctuated, but he made up his mind.

The Six Sages are too many after all.

"This is their response. This Mr. Shazaman reacted very quickly, and directly attracted his companions, because of his special situation, he built a temporary alliance of interests."

A sage spoke heavily, "What we have to deal with now is not a certain individual, but an entire alliance of interests in Sumeru City."

"The foundation of the establishment of the alliance is the defeat of [the 30-member group]. Their failure even caused us to lose our credibility in the eyes of most people."

With an untrustworthy group of people tasked with protecting your property and possibly your life, it makes sense that you would want to find another way.

"The response is reasonable."

Another sage had a hoarse voice, "In the final analysis, we don't have any evidence, it's nothing more than a reasonable suspicion."

He characterized the matter as simply a reasonable doubt.

Although it is unreasonable to suspect without evidence that it is reasonable, all of you here are sages, and of course they are considering issues in the interests of sages.

"Shazaman took advantage of this identity. If we continue to doubt him, this matter will change from reasonable suspicion to retaliation. For the Holy Order, this is not a solution to the problem, but an expansion of the problem."

"It's not worth it. I suggest dropping the investigation on Humayi's family."

His words were a little weary.

Whether it is really suspected, or simply crazily biting all possibilities, everyone knows very well.

Of course, what I'm doing is revenge work, but at this point in time, I still need a reasonable packaging and illusion.

There are no illusions, and this matter can only end here.

"The sincerity of the other party is indeed enough." A sage flipped through the report, "But what he did is worthy of our consideration."

He put down the report, "Could it be that he really doesn't have any extra thoughts and ideas?"

His rhetoric is somewhat unreasonable, but this is also the answer Hazard wants.

No matter how well-founded the reasons are on the surface, you can drag things out in groups and talk in front of many people, which itself is a kind of threat and disobedience.

If you really don't have these thoughts, why can't you resist and accept our inspection obediently?

Now that you have the thoughts and actions of resistance, even if you appear to be loyal, you are no longer loyal enough.

This kind of mental illness is not uncommon in human history, highlighting a [When I want to kill you, the only way for you to prove your innocence is to really die].

Because I am nobler than you, because I am your father.

The reason is as simple as that.

When you have a group mind, put this matter on the bright side, and force me to restrain my thoughts, you have actually resisted my will.

Everyone knows that I want to take care of you. You gave away your daughter and property, and you seem to be very loyal.

But since you are so loyal, why do you still resist me?
Rebellion is a manifestation of disloyalty. Your disloyalty here is completely disloyal in the eyes of the superior.

Objectively speaking, this idea is quite neurotic, but it is indeed an idea that can be called [mainstream].

There are really not many people who use it, but those who are qualified to use this idea, their will is enough to form the [mainstream].

Azar, the Six Sages is one of them.

"He wants to use the power of the group to protect himself. Obviously, Shazaman's position has long been skewed."

"He doesn't trust us, and there are currently only two forces in Sumeru Land."

He did not go on.

If you don't trust the Holy Order, you can only choose another side.

Just like [The Legacy of the God King], if Rama refuses, he can only choose the Holy Order.

The weak must find a good support at this time. If you don't choose this side, you are actually choosing his opposite.

Of course, there is a possibility that Sharzaman might indeed be a coincidence.

But between destroying him and verifying his loyalty, the former is obviously easier and easier.

"This matter can be dealt with later. Shazaman's mind may indeed not be pure, but in the current environment, we can't find a more suitable reason."

The old sage looked calm, "It's not that there is no evidence, but that there is no evidence that can be accepted by the public."

"After they had preconceived ideas and came up with our intention to persecute the Humayi family, any valid evidence in our hands would be regarded as forcibly whitewashing and covering up."

"This is a general turmoil, Shazaman just used a reasonable means to protect himself."

He got up and looked around his colleagues, "In the end, their ideas and concepts are based on one core, and we lost."

"Everyone, why don't you let this Mr. Shazaman go, let's talk about our more difficult enemy—how about [30-member group]?"

In the eyes of the Six Sages, the most difficult enemy is not even Rama, but the [Group of 30].

"Failure is the root of all doubts, and I fully agree with that." Hazard nodded slightly.

He looked as usual, and he was the calmest among all the sages with different expressions.

"[The 30-member group] is also based on the desert people. They have mastered the frontier defense force of the rainforest. Once they choose to betray, we may really lose."

The reason why outsiders just suspected but did not act was because there was still the God of Grass platform.

Even if there is a certain possibility that the God of Grass is weak, but compared to the seven rulings, everyone is still willing to believe that he is actually very powerful.

It is the source of everyone's confidence that there is a decree institute with gods against the sand sea without gods.

Because of this, the Holy Order could not do more to Shazaman.

Too guilty.

Behind unprovoked anger is often fear and anxiety. Their overreaction will make many people feel that they shouldn't have guessed.

The Six Sages didn't have the confidence.

They knew that the God of Grass could not be trusted.

If the little auspicious grass king is released, he is more likely to help the desert than the rainforest.

After all, the six sages of all ages have made this kind of decision, but at critical moments, they expect the gods to stand up and help them maintain the system—everyone is just arrogant, but not stupid.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally fell silent.

The problem is obvious, but it can't be solved.

"The rebellion [of the 30] has become a fait accompli, no matter what we think, but now everybody thinks we're going to do it to the [30]."

"Things have reached this level, there is only one way left for [the 30-member group]."

When everyone thinks about something like this, although it is not a fact, it is also a thing that [has not happened yet but will happen].

With this kind of cognition, the betrayal of [Group of 30] is nothing more than a matter of time.

"But we haven't had enough time to perfectly wrest that part of the power back from [the 30]."

A sage said quite euphemistically.

The work of suppressing the 30-member group did not start until recently, because the situation in Sumeru was very stable before. Although there was enough time and energy, the sages at that time did not have the intention to really clean up the [30-member group].

As for the oppression and injustice in Asfad's mouth... that's the usual treatment.

It is not a special operation to tidy up and oppress the desert people every day.

And when they had the idea to do so, the environment no longer allowed them to do something drastic.

"We all know that the [30-member group]'s betrayal is only a matter of time, and the [30-member group] also knows that we must want to deal with them."

Everyone knows the answers, but no one has done it yet.

"But none of us will do it."

Azar went on to describe the difficulty of the problem.

Usually, when a person goes into the depth of describing how difficult a problem is, that's when he's going to charge you a price you wouldn't normally accept.

Because the problem is hard, it makes sense that you should be paid more to solve it.

"[The 30-member group] needed Rama's attitude, and they didn't want to fight with us, but Rama came here and beat them into Shahai's betrayers, and then executed them all on the spot."

"After all, a long time ago, they were the first to betray Shahai and chose to seek refuge in the rainforest."

The earliest traitors lived better than all the desert people. The hatred for internal traitors is often higher than the hatred for external enemies, which is well known to everyone.

[Group of 30] needs Rama's promise, needs Rama's promise to accept them, and they will have a reason to betray the Holy Order.

Otherwise, if you betray the Holy Order on the front foot, people will still label you a traitor on the back foot.

"And we can't take the lead at this time. After all, as long as we do it, the strength of the rain forest will be weakened."

"Sha Hai stands on the sidelines, no matter how you calculate it, you are making money."

This is the problem.

After restating the question aside, Hazard observed the expressions of his colleagues.

Clearly, they are all aware of the magnitude of the problem.

In a way, the matter of Shazaman is just a small [group of 30] problem.

The reason why they stayed on the issue of Shazaman was also thinking about how to deduce and solve the position of the [Group of 30] by solving the problem of Shazaman.

The answer came and it couldn't be solved.

"I'm afraid there is only one way left. We need to ask the rulers of other countries for help in the name of gods."

Hazard threw out the answer.

This is obviously a proposal that no one would agree to under normal circumstances.

But when he repeated the problem, and everyone admitted it couldn't be solved, suddenly his proposal was worth considering.

"Ask for help from those in power in other countries..."

The issue of losing face can be postponed. After all, depending on the direction of the situation, they might not be the masters of Xumi in the near future.

Face is precious, but it would be too stupid to lose power because of it.

"I don't need to tell you about the power inside Xumi, because we have lost the trust of the gods, and we have almost no more trustworthy power."

Azar looked as calm as possible.

The main force of other state organs is usually the god himself and his legacy.

Monde is the god of wind and the dragon of the east wind left behind by him, Liyue is the god of rocks and the immortals attached to him, and rice wife is the general of thunder and his family, the son of Yae Kami, the priest of Narugami Taisha.

As for the Knights of the West Wind, the Qianyan Army, or the Shogunate Army... it's not that they underestimate the power of human beings, or they simply don't need to place too many expectations on them.

The core force is clear at a glance, that is, the god and his followers.

And Sumi...

The god of Sumeru has been imprisoned, and the family of the Great Mercy Tree King is Lan Naluo. The little auspicious grass king should not have his own family members. He can only inherit the legacy of the Great Mercy Tree King.

As for the question, that sage would consider trusting the Little Auspicious Grass King, or Lan Naluo.

Therefore, many troubles that were not considered problems in other countries have become difficult to deal with in Sumeru.

This is what happens when there is no core force.

Once something like asking for help is done, of course many problems will be exposed, and everyone will be nailed to the pillar of shame.

But no matter how bad the ending is, it will not be worse than the interruption of the ruling power of the Holy Order in their generation.

"The matter of asking for help must be arranged as soon as possible." The old sage nodded, "But once we ask for help, it basically confirms the fact that the gods are weak."

"How to solve this problem?"

Still have to make some decisions.

They have been reduced to the point of asking for help, and they are still worrying too much here. Maybe by the time the other party responds, the king's flag on the city wall has been changed.

"It is a fact that the gods are weak, but more truths are in our hands," Azar and the old man looked at each other, "right?"
