Road to Peace

The cabin was soon filled with people with different expressions, and Yang Shen standing among them became the focus of attention.

"What do you want to say, if we are content with the status quo, we can save our lives? If we sell our bodies by whatever means, maybe we can become a superior person? The Royal Concubine of the Shark Emperor?"

I don't know who was the first to speak in the crowd, full of sarcasm and resentment, and instantly made the people around explode.

His implication is very obvious, satirizing Yang Shen's current state is the result of betraying himself to flatter the sharks, and he doesn't think that Yang Shen's gathering people together is out of good intentions.

Whispering whispers suddenly sounded from all directions, submerged like a tide.

Yang Shen glanced in that direction twice, but he didn't see who the person who spoke just now was, after all, there were too many people.

However, Yang Shen didn't care too much about the malice in his words. Attacks from words are actually the weakest, and they don't even need any substantive defense.

As long as your heart is firm.

Instead, seeing the expressions on the faces around him made him even more worried.

Except for the shock and excitement left by his friends and acquaintances, the human beings in front of them, who have been worn away in the long and dull life of the seabed, each present almost the same emptiness and numbness.

Their suspicious, sharp, and self-protection methods of hurting the enemy one thousand and self-inflicted eight hundred, all make people feel sad.

Yang Shen did not forget the human beings who stayed at the bottom of the sea back then, because they had a sense of justice and moral bottom line, but the time has passed so long that the situation has changed so unbearably.

"I know that most people here don't believe me." Yang Shen retracted his gaze and said calmly.

His voice was not loud, but all the whispers from the crowd disappeared immediately. It was obvious that those who were willing to enter the boat still wanted to hear what Yang Shen had to say.

"Why do we trust you? How can you marry those demons? How can you beg for mercy from the race that oppresses us?"

Another voice of doubt sounded, a completely different voice, with the same suspicion and contempt.

"Shut up your mother! Who is timid in the crowd and has the courage to stand up? What right does a coward have to question others? Yang Shen didn't finish his sentence!"

Babu waved his fist angrily and turned around, glaring at the crowd viciously, because of his race, he was very tall and strong.

The full beard on his face looked ferocious, and he managed to shut up some people who wanted to follow suit.After all, lip service and hands and feet are definitely two different things.

Casting a thankful look to Babu, Yang Shen knew very well in his heart that spiritual encouragement, comfort, and empty and hypocritical incitement are meaningless to these people now.

So he asked them directly in the next sentence, "Do you want to go back to live on land?"

It was like throwing a boulder onto a calm lake, and people immediately started making noise.

Some impatient people yelled directly, "Nonsense, who doesn't want to go ashore?" Although most people didn't curse out loud, their expressions faithfully reflected their mood.

They felt that Yang Shen had fallen in love with the benefactor, and since then he had no worries about food and clothing, so they asked such idiotic questions when they were bored to play tricks on them.

Over the years, generation after generation, who doesn't want to go ashore?Do you need to ask this kind of question?Oh, probably, His Royal Highness Concubine Lan and the God Envoy really don't want to go ashore. Once he goes ashore, everything he owns today will be gone.

Even people who knew Yang Shen felt that his question was a bit redundant.

Only the hysterical Cheng's eyes lit up before, and he quickly looked around, thinking of what he was in now, he couldn't help but look at Yang Shen.

The other party smiled and said again, "I will take you out of here and back to land. I believe you all know who this ship belongs to."

The entire cabin could hear a needle drop again.

One sentence.Two sentences.Three sentences.From the time when most of the people were summoned to the boat until now, Yang Shen only said three words in total, but he managed to calm down the whole boat.

Yes, they all know that Lan Suyuan and Yang Shen fell from the sky that day, Yang Shen endured the indignation of the mermaids, the words that Lan Suyuan said for him, and the radiance from Yang Shen.

They had all heard and seen it with their own eyes, and some people even believed that even if Yang Shen was truly chosen by God, he was also an envoy of God.

This mysterious ship is indeed under Yang Shen's control, which can be seen from the fact that they are standing here now.

But why?

"It doesn't make sense!" Someone shouted, "You want the wind to win the wind, and the rain to win the rain, and even the Shark Emperor listens to you, and all those fierce guys respect you very much, even if you want to run amok in this sea There is no obstacle, are you willing to give up this kind of life?"

It is impossible for most people to give up such a life, right?It is understandable that they have no freedom at the bottom of the sea, no expectation and longing to return to land, but Yang Shen is different from them.

Think about it differently, if they reach Yang Shen's status, would they still want to go back to land?

They are not nobles there, but strangers who have been away for many years and have no one to rely on.

Although people were very emotional, the pressure on Yang Shen's body was slightly relieved. Compared with the numbness and emptiness before, these people's emotions are at least much more normal now.

They are willing to question, which means they are still looking forward to it.

He reached out and touched the shark bead on his chest, it belonged to Lan Suyuan, thinking of that man's eternal calmness and stability, Yang Shen closed his eyes.

"You know how I got here, right?"

"President Auston said that he would marry General Jansern to the Shark Emperor in exchange for peace for mankind, but I was the one who came to make a kiss in the end."

"You also remember why you are standing here now?"

"Because the silver-blue sea area was destroyed, during my ceremony, President Auston's people did not hesitate to attract a deep-sea storm. Was there anyone going to rescue you at that time? Just let me know."

Silent.

If we talk about the first point, God of War is replaced by a weak chicken who doesn't know who makes them hopeless and makes them feel that Yang Shen is hateful, then the latter point makes people so desperate that they can't get angry.

Before that, despite being in the dark, they had always believed that the people on land were still working to save them, and that sooner or later they would get out of their cages.

Instead of now, when Lan Suyuan told the truth before, they knew their fate as abandoned children.

What a ridiculous and absurd life.

Those they long to save end up killing them; those they try to flee end up saving them.

Looking at their unspeakable silence, Yang Shen said calmly: "If revenge is too arbitrary, I want to go to the person who persecuted me and listen to him personally."

"What about you, don't you want to go up to the President and ask him why?"

He carefully observed everyone's expressions. Although most of the people here knew the fact that they were abandoned before, they all had some expectations for Auston.

Only those who know the truth know what kind of man Auston is.

So he didn't directly say revenge.

After a long time, I don't know it was the little girl who asked in a low voice in the corner, "Can we... can we really go to the President and ask him?"

Snapped.

I heard the sound of chess pieces falling in my ears, "Before that, make yourself stronger and stay away from death."

……

Yang Shen, who put away the Shatang, walked on the road alone. He refused Babu Hecheng and the others' persuasion, and walked quietly by himself.

He raised his hand and touched his chest, feeling the steady and powerful beating of the heart in his chest, he pursed his lips and looked down at his toes.

"Sines, I think, I seem to have changed."

"There is no doubt my dear master, everything is changing all the time, just like yesterday I thought your blood tasted so good, but today I secretly think that strange man's blood tastes even better!"

"...I didn't mean that, I, I was thinking that I hate Auston, but will I become like him in the end, just now I-"

"Just now you spent so much time, thought so much rhetoric, and detoured so many detours, was it to achieve your own selfish desire?"

The seemingly old and unscrupulous Guangnao suddenly became serious. At this time, he really looked like an omniscient and omnipotent senior wise man.

It vibrated slightly on Yang Shen's wrist, as if to appease his confusion.

"No, you've worked so hard to make everything go smoothly and let them return to the sun as soon as possible. In fact, tell them simply and rudely that the mermaid is not the rightful lord who oppresses them. Their image in the mermaid's heart is that. Wouldn’t it be good for the bad guys?”

"You have to help them take their time, why compare yourself with the old guy Oston, who is such a mother-in-law, he is much more decisive than you! He is a real leader and leader!"

"Pfft." Yang Shen couldn't help laughing, and the confusion he had just had disappeared immediately. Although he was severely despised by an artificial intelligence, he also found that his emotions just now were purely boring.

The small metal ring shook again, "But master, if you tell them that you want to elope with them, you won't let the merman know, does that fierce fish know?"

Yang Shen was about to go back to talk to Lan Suyuan about this matter. Given these people's vigilance and distrust towards the sharks, if Lan Suyuan supported them to go ashore, they would definitely think it was a trap.

So he planned to let them think that this was a secret operation for the time being.

But if he wanted Lan Suyuan, he couldn't help but recall what Cheng pointed out to him before. He never expected that Cheng would bring that box of love letters with him under such circumstances.

Fortunately, he didn't peek at it, um... probably... didn't see it?

If Lan Suyuan saw the things he wrote, it would be, ahem.

"Are you blushing?"

Suddenly, a voice with a slightly icy breath came from not far in front, Yang Shen was startled, and saw Lan Suyuan's face swimming close to him in an instant.
