641: Chapter 64 You’d Better Be Able to Explain to the Principal 641: Chapter 64 You’d Better Be Able to Explain to the Principal It’s only natural for the heroes of Mount Liang not to want to surrender; they live like immortals, feasting on at, guzzling wine, and sharing out gold—why would they ever want to submit to others?
Brother Song Gongming, the leader of the stronghold, has much to consider.
They’ve raided all the places they could around them; they’ve plundered everything possible.
You still think about drinking and feasting—I may be an Immortal, but can I conjure alcohol and at from the heavens for you?
The mountain is full of warriors; there aren’t many cultured folks.
Even if they take over a Prefectural Governnt, they can’t govern it, unable to learn the advanced experience from the Sect Hierarch of the south.
There’s also the sensitive identity of Mr.
Chai within the ranks, a ticking ti bomb.
If we don’t surrender, what do we do then?
Wait for death?
Compared to other Dharma Gates, Garrison Soldiers Dharma Gate is initially easier but becos harder.
It’s easy to start, but advancing requires considering many issues.
Internally, one must resolve the discordant voices within the group to avoid producing kings of rotten ideas, leading brothers down the path of no return.
Externally, one must demonstrate their abilities and loyalty to their superiors.
You can’t be like the Shen Family, hoarding all the benefits for oneself.
When real trouble cos, it’s too late to use money to grease palms and manage connections.
When the wall collapses, everyone will push you down—after you die, there will still be plenty for others, so why keep you alive?
Nor can you be like the Wei Family, taking yourself too seriously, listening only to half the advice given, thinking you’re above all rules…
If that’s the case, others will also feel free to ignore rules when dealing with you.
Just because Wang Yunxiao can handle sothing, doesn’t an others can too.
It cos down to the gap in strength, and the gap in recognition.
Brother Yuanxiao has a very clear self-awareness of his own identity.
“Behemoth, also known as Bahamut, and Beimon, is a matter of transliteration between different national languages.
This fellow is the progenitor of the giant beasts in Western mythology.
It’s said that when God created them, he made a male and a female—Behemoth was the male; the female was Leviathan,” Bai Shanshan explained while picking his teeth.
“Behemoth and Leviathan were among the oldest generation of hell’s Demon Kings, each ruling over the realms of avarice and envy, respectively.
They were eventually replaced by the newer Demon Kings and gradually faded into silence.
It wasn’t until the disturbances of the Temporal Tide shook history that they erged once again.”
“It just so happened these years coincide with the transition between the New Gods and Ancient Gods.
Human technology has advanced, and the once-fervent belief in the Ancient Gods has crumbled.
Many Ancient Gods have quietly fallen, but so clever ones found a place in the new era.
The shock waves from the Temporal Tide have roused many old creatures like Behemoth from their graves, beginning to stir up trouble everywhere.”
“Lord of Hell, Satan, is a very clever guy, and his seven Demon Kings, seven Great Monarchs, have been very active in the Real World these years.
You must have heard of phisto, right?
He’s in Germany—however, you might not know, there is no longer a Germany, only the unified Frank Empire.
Anyway, he founded the Holy Grail Church in Europe, which later spread to Fusang.”
“Rahab established the Capital God System in the Federation; Yin Ting developed oil technology; Rofocale created so kind of gold standard currency system…
Compared to them, Behemoth is an old relic, unable to grasp these newfangled things.
That’s why he dug up many prehistoric giants in the permafrost layers near the Rakshasa, creating what is so-called the original Saman spiritism,”
“Back when the President went north, he fought against the Rakshasa on the Northern Frontier, chiefly targeting Behemoth’s behemoth legion.”
“After being defeated by the President, that old guy started to reflect and shift his approach, thus creating what is now called the Dragon Worship Church.”
At this point, Bai Shanshan gave Wang Yunxiao a serious look.
“The Dragon Worship Church isn’t a traditional religious belief, but a virus, a parasite.
The concept of the Eastern Dragon no longer exists; their goal is to distort and alter, to replace and fill the void of our understanding of the Dragon Clan with the concept of the Western Dragon.”
“What do you an the concept of the Eastern Dragon no longer exists?”
Wang Yunxiao couldn’t comprehend what this ant.
Although he had never seen what a dragon looks like, everyone knows what a dragon is—how could its concept not exist?
“I find it difficult to explain this to you…
Have you read Journey to the West?”
“Read it.”
“What do you think would be left of Journey to the West if all the gods and Buddhas were taken out of its world setting?”
Dragon Ball?
Wang Yunxiao silently shook his head, not daring to voice his thoughts.
“It would be called Great Tang Records on the Western Regions.”
Oh…
Good thing I didn’t say what I was thinking.
“My explanation is definitely not accurate, as I am not an expert.
You just need to understand the idea.”
Bai Shanshan shrugged and said, “There used to be the Dragon Clan, and even Dragon Maiden…”
Why single out Dragon Maiden?
Is it because Dragon Maiden can transform into human form to fall in love with a young Scholar?
“The President also once had the opportunity to beco Dragon Maiden, but if she had taken that step, it would an that we would lose her as a leader, and the Feudal Dynasty wouldn’t be so easily overturned.
We might need another twenty, thirty years, or even longer, before we can truly enter a new era where you can sit in classrooms and study without worry.”
Bai Shanshan stated earnestly, “The skies once full of Immortals and Buddhas are all gone, and even the ‘Dragon’ has left.
It’s like Journey to the West without Monkey Sun; then it’s just the Great Tang Records on the Western Regions recounted by Xuanzang.”
“This is the era of man, the Eastern Tang Dynasty has only General Tiance left, and behind him the mortal Garrison Soldiers.”
“Despite this, we cannot allow those external Demons and Evil Spirits to take the opportunity to steal what belongs to us.”
“The Dragon Worship Church is not the kind of enemy that will fight you head-on; they will distort and manipulate the national impression of the Dragon in various ways.
Last night, you hunted a Flying Dragon and brought its carcass back to the Real World.
To you Garrison Soldiers, it may be nothing, but what about those students who are unaware of the truth?”
“They have never seen a real Dragon, just as the ancient people of limited exposure mistook giraffes for Qilin.
When they see this Flying Dragon, their brains will imdiately be contaminated, and their cognition distorted.”
“When the distortion of collective cognition reaches a critical point, it will affect the Real World.
Therefore, with such things, we must nip them in the bud and make ands while we still can.”
Bai Shanshan let out a loud burp and rubbed her stomach: “So, no need to thank .”
If you hadn’t said that last sentence, I might have really been moved by you!
Wang Yunxiao spoke earnestly, “Teacher Bai, I don’t know if you’ve heard of an idiom, it’s called ‘to set an example for others as a teacher.'”
“Furthermore, just in case you pretend to be confused and don’t understand, let add one more thing: our team’s spoils have always been counted as part of the school’s assets.”
“You’ve devoured our teaching budget for the next sester in one al, and I hope you can be just as candid in front of the principal.”
