After comforting the girl and coming out of her boudoir, it was already a dawn time in the sky. Although she had sex all night, due to her strong body, Wang Yao was still full of energy and was not tired at all.

After gently tidying up the girl's clothes scattered all over the corridor to the bathroom, cleaned them and hung them outside the balcony on the second floor. After hesitating for a moment, Wang Yao returned to the reception room on the first floor and picked up the 8 energy crystals he threw on the table as soon as he entered the door last night.

Two of these 8 energy crystals were retained to the present day in Wei State (that is, the two that deceived Zhang Shao at the time), and six were obtained by Luna and Zhao Yun in this battle between Wu and Shu.

Standing alone in the slightly dim living room, silently watching the red crystal holding it in his hand, the electric wires shaped like dragons inside were flowing. Under the reflection of the charming red light it emitted, Wang Yao's face gradually became a little complicated.

According to Zhuge Liang's original statement, only the lives of ten thousand soldiers can condense this energy crystal, and these 8 energy crystals are actually the essence of 80,000 lives!

This is the perfect human blood steamed bun.

Shaking his head gently, Wang Yao turned around and found a piece of cloth, wrapped 8 energy crystals, and opened the door and walked out of the pavilion.

It was almost five o'clock in the morning, and the air was extremely fresh. Walking on the empty street, I felt that many sounds that I had never noticed during the day and were so small that I could not recognize, I could hear clearly at this moment...

Wang Yao enjoyed this subtle tranquility alone while walking outside Jingzhou City. Along the way, there were traces left by the large celebration last night. Jingzhou City was very lively last night. Although the Battle of Wu and Shu was not a great victory, as long as it was not a defeat, every time the army of the army returned triumphantly, Jingzhou would hold a celebration to celebrate the safe return of their children. This seemed to have become a fixed activity.

Soon, after leaving the northern city gate of Jingzhou, Wang Yao came to the familiar legion base camp.

Now is the most tired moment, but the soldiers responsible for the night watch are still energetic. After seeing Wang Yao, they are all respectful as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Wang Yao did not have the leisure to respond to the enthusiasm of the soldiers one by one, but nodded symbolically and walked towards the central army tent located in the center.

The Central Army’s Grand Tab is where Zhuge Liang works.

The reason why I came here was because Zhuge Liang whispered to come to the base camp to find him the next day, saying that he had something to discuss with him, but Wang Yao estimated that Zhuge Liang might have come for the "Highland Alliance" matters, right?

As soon as he walked into the tent, Wang Yao saw Zhuge Liang buried his head beside the handsome desk. The handsome desk, which was nearly two meters wide, was filled with bamboo slips of various books and bamboo slips with high mountains, and there was almost no room for him to accommodate others.

In fact, the candlelight in the big tent has been lit up all night...

"So early." Zhuge Liang said without raising his head.

"Well, don't tell me that you haven't slept all night." Wang Yao nodded, then walked over, took a book from Zhuge Liang's desk and flipped through it. He found that it was not a business, but some historical documents with vague records: "What are you doing when you read through these?"

Zhuge Liang looked at Wang Yao's equipment quietly and said softly: "I always vaguely remember these strange equipment on you. I have seen similar records in historical documents before. I really care about it, so a month ago, I specially asked someone to transport all the documents I had read from Jixia Academy to help me deliver all the documents I had read at that time."

"Is that so hard for you. If you find any clues, remember to tell me, I have always wanted to know the origin of this." Wang Yao found a place to sit down, and at the same time put the energy crystal on the table aside.

In Zhuge Liang's eyes, Wang Yao said: "These are the energy crystals I got from the canyon. It's useless to put them here, so I'll send them to you by the way."

Zhuge Liang covered his mouth and coughed softly, as if he had just straightened his breath before nodding and said, "Well, then I'll see if I can spare time in the past two days. Then go to Wolonggang to arrange upgrades for you first."

Wang Yao looked at Zhuge Liang's slightly haggard face and said, "I think you should pay more attention to rest when you have time. Staying up late will hurt your body. As for the escalation, I actually didn't have this plan from the beginning."

Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned: "What does it mean?"

Wang Yao played with one of the energy crystals and said, "You also said that these energy crystals are actually condensed from the lives of soldiers. Each piece is tens of thousands of lives. In fact, since I learned the truth, even in the canyon battlefield, I rarely kill enemy soldiers."

As soon as Wang Yao finished speaking, Zhuge Liang frowned slightly.

How could he not hear what Wang Yao meant?

Under Zhuge Liang's silent stare, Wang Yao said: "Don't look at me with this kind of eyes. Even if I don't upgrade, my current equipment is enough to fight against the enemy heroes. I have never planned to rely on these people's blood buns to strengthen myself from the beginning. After all, every level of upgrade requires a piece of energy crystal. According to this calculation, 150,000 people must be sacrificed at the maximum level. I don't want to bear such a heavy sin on myself."

The originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became cold.

"At this point, do you think you can keep it alone?"

Zhuge Liang narrowed his deep blue eyes slightly and stared at Wang Yao: "These equipments of yours can give you the power to fight against heroes, but these are just the increase of external objects. If you rely too much on these external objects, you will inevitably lead you into a situation that will never be restored in the future! I can understand your compassion for the soldiers, but since ancient times, one general has always been a success and a thousand bones have been destroyed. After all, your refusal to use energy crystals may be due to morality and principles, but this practice seems extremely stupid in my opinion. The so-called wise plan with the times and fools move against the times. Many times, you should learn to surrender to the flow of the world. Even if it is extremely dirty, don't resist it, because it has always been like this!"

Listening to Zhuge Liang's reprimand, although they were already familiar with each other, Wang Yao couldn't help but feel anger in his heart.

He also understood the truth about Zhuge Liang? But... Mr. Lu Xun said it well; is that true that he has always been like this?

"Yes, maybe my approach is indeed [update fast] very stupid. But I always believe that if I want to change this world where the strong prey on the weak, I must first change this established tradition. Why do I have to rely on sacrificing soldiers to strengthen myself like other heroes? If everyone is as selfish as you, and only knows how to achieve self-reliance by using the sacrifices of others, and ignores benevolence, righteousness and morality at all, then when will the world be peaceful?!"

Zhuge Liang was speechless for a moment.

History is vast, but it has been repeated between peace and war. Why? After all, it is that humans have always believed in the extreme law of the strong as the prey on the weak, which has caused constant disasters. Once many things are done, it is equivalent to admitting. The reason why Wang Yao refused to use energy crystals was just because he denied this extreme idea.

Wasn’t he determined to help Su An assist Wang Yao because of Wang Yao’s rebellious spirit and his belief in refuting tradition?

This bloody and unhuman era really requires someone to subvert it with a new concept, and Wang Yao has always been very clear about where his direction is...

Seeing Zhuge Liang silent, Wang Yao waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'm not here to argue with you. You specifically asked me to come over. Do you want to ask what happened to this Highland Alliance?"

"I can guess more without asking about the Highland Covenant."

Zhuge Liang said with a slight tone, "If Zhou Yu is not able to understand his emotions, move him with reason, and lure him with profit, he is always arrogant and will not be able to let go of the stage and cooperate with you for truce. I think you may have reached an alliance with him in a sense, which will satisfy your long-cherished wish of the liberation of the soldiers, and at the same time satisfy Zhou Yu's utilitarian desire to achieve great achievements. The specific steps should be based on the Wushu Alliance, and then establish a larger alliance, and at the same time let Zhou Yu be at a high position in this system, because only in this way can Zhou Yu be willing to cooperate with you."

Damn, awesome!

To be honest, Wang Yao admired Zhuge Liang very much in his heart, because this man can always predict many unknown facts and look at people with great insight! Just from Zhou Yu's temperament and his wishes, he can guess so many things. The title of peerless magic is indeed not for nothing.

But because of this, Wang Yao became even more puzzled: "Then what are you trying to come to me?"

Zhuge Liang said: "I hope you can kill someone."

The sudden change made Wang Yao stunned: "Kill... people?"

"That's right." Zhuge Liang raised his eyes that suddenly became cold: "If I remember correctly, all the seventh main force you commanded was killed in the Wei highlands, but there was still a small soldier who survived, right?"

Looking at Zhuge Liang with a blank expression, Wang Yao suddenly felt a chill rising from his back: "You said 点? Are you kidding me? Why?!"

"I'm not kidding." In Wang Yao's shocked gaze, Zhuge Liang said in an emotional tone: "Only the dead can keep the secret. As your guard, he knows too much, especially when you assassinated Zhang Shao in the canyon battlefield. If he was tempted and leaked this matter, it would probably be very unfavorable to your situation, so just in case, this soldier cannot stay!"

Wang Yao was frightened and quickly said, "Fei is loyal to me, he will not betray me."

"Never underestimate the greed and ignorance of those soldiers." Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes: "And even if wealth cannot be touched, what if he is secretly caught by someone and torture and torture? You probably have never tortured anyone, right? Anyway, if I come, no soldier can last half a stick of incense in my hands."

"What do you mean? Is there someone who wants to be bad for Fei?" Wang Yao's brows became tighter and tighter.

Zhuge Liang did not answer positively, but changed his tone and asked, "What kind of person do you think Your Majesty is?"

Wang Yao asked inexplicably: "What's the matter with Brother Liu?"

Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "Wang Yao, you are still in the officialdom, and you don't know that the officialdom is as deep as the sea. You must remember that there are three taboos for being a minister: one is that the master is powerful and shocking the master; the second is that the power is powerful and bullying the master; the third is that the master is powerful and suppressing the master! The Highland Alliance seems to be the primary contribution of this battle, but in fact, you have passed the high-level officials without authorization and signed a private alliance with the Wu Kingdom, but you have committed a big taboo because of this."

Wang Yao looked at Zhuge Liang in a daze. He had never thought about the fact that he was so powerful that he could do so!

Then, Zhuge Liang said meaningfully: "The highest power is the emperor, and the ruthlessness is the emperor! The most vicious thing in this world is not the hero who kills people, nor is it a glass of poisonous wine, but the hearts of the emperors! They will not allow anyone to climb onto their heads. If the ministers are a little overbearing, they will arouse their suspicion and murderous intent. Believe me, even if you don't have this heart, you may have caused some senior officials to feel grudges. Now that things have come to this, you can only quickly whitewash yourself, because I am worried about this hidden danger, which will one day become your handle."

Wang Yao never expected that Zhuge Liang asked him to come for this matter!

At the beginning, he could not protect the entire seventh main force in the highlands of Wei, but now he asked him to kill the last person left with his own hands. How could he do it?!

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Yao said more firmly: "These are just your unilateral concerns. I can't kill the fee because of this, right?"

But Zhuge Liang was unexpectedly persistent in this matter: "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of it if I don't want to use the energy crystal for the time being, but there is only one thing, you have to listen to me!"

Wang Yao was also very stubborn about this: "We can discuss other things, but only this matter, I will not change my mind! If you asked me to come just for this matter, then we don't have to talk about anything more!"

Wang Yao really didn't want to argue with Zhuge Liang, so as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately turned around and planned to leave.

"Stop." A cold voice came from Zhuge Liang's mouth, like an invisible blade, which suddenly hit Wang Yao's back: "I have spent so much energy to cultivate you, and I will never allow you to fail because of a mere soldier. If you don't want to, then I will do it myself."

Bang!

Wang Yao was annoyed and turned around and slapped the table suddenly: "The life and death of my subordinates should be decided by themselves. I have no right to deprive others of their lives, nor do you! Listen, if I find that there is a hair missing from Fei, I will only ask!"

After saying anger, Wang Yao left the military tent without hesitation this time. The talks ended unhappily...

The candlelight sways, and the big tent is silent.

"I hope my worries are wrong..."

Accompanied by a low sigh, Zhuge Liang gently covered his mouth with the back of his hand and coughed, while holding a brush in his hand, he slowly wrote a word on the bamboo slip in front of him.

"life."
Chapter completed!
