Chapter 864: Breaking down superstitions starts with babies! I never thought about shouldering the expectations of others!
The calls of the five ministers finally woke up Cai'er.
After rubbing her sleepy eyes, Cai'er saw an uncle who was many times more handsome than the elder man of the Li Zheng family giving serious instructions.
"Let all victims take a bath, and then put their clothes in boiling water for a period of time before drying them before wearing them. This can better prevent the plague. This is the most likely thing to cause mass casualties after a disaster. Please do not Careless. "
"There is no need to worry about the problem of food and grass. The disaster relief food and grass allocated by various counties have arrived near Zheng County. As long as the transportation roads are opened and strong men are organized to carry it, the disaster areas will not have to worry about starvation. "< br>
"There are more mountains in Tong County, so the rescue disaster may be greater, but as long as we go there, we can bring hope and the courage to persevere to the victims..."
Cai'er didn't understand what Ying Chengyu was saying. say something.
But Cai'er knew that they must be talking about something very important, so she lay obediently on Zhou Qingchen, motionless, just looking at Ying Chengyu with her shining eyes.
After a long while, Ying Chengyu finally completed the arrangements and said in a deep voice: "Everything is done on a voluntary basis."
"Those injured and tired Dingkou should not be allowed to participate in the rescue. To avoid losing more lives due to rescue.”
"It's getting late, and there will be a big battle next."
"Two and three sons, let's go and rest first, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
Then Ying Chengyu turned his eyes to Cai'er, and said warmly He smiled and said, "My baby is tired too. It's time to rest."
What a well-behaved baby!
You can still be so sensible after going through so much hardship. It’s really heartwarming to be so sensible.
It's no wonder that even people like Zhou Qingchen feel affection for her.
Facing Ying Chengyu's gentle and loving gaze, Cai'er gained a little more courage out of thin air and asked proactively: "Uncle Chang'an Jun, can you talk to Dilong?"
Ying Cheng Xi:...
I take back what I just said!
Ying Chengyu looked at Su Jiao and others with an unkind look: "Did you say something you shouldn't have said again!"
Although out of the need to care for the people, I no longer openly say in public that I cannot communicate with ghosts and gods, and I cannot command the earth dragons. Instead, I have adopted the attitude of a scumbag who does not admit, does not object, and does not take the initiative.
But I have already told you countless times.
Stop telling others that I have the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods and command earth dragons.
If I can really command the earth dragon, how can I make the earth dragon stand up in Guanzhong?
But I really don’t have that ability!
In the end, why are you two so troublesome to me?
Su Jiao said with a confused look: "Your Majesty knows how humble you are."
"Significant people always only tell others that your Majesty is a benevolent and righteous gentleman, but never Tell others that your Majesty has the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods and command the earth dragons!”
Feng Jie said softly: “I reported back to Lord Chang’an. I told you in Handan that the earth dragons will turn around in Guanzhong this year!” On this occasion, the court made this known to the world. "Therefore, everyone in the world knew that Lord Chang'an had anticipated this earth dragon's turn."
"The official thought that this kid just kept this in mind."
Zhou Qingchen subconsciously wanted to agree with Feng Jie.
But thinking about Ying Chengyu's intelligence capabilities and the price of being exposed, Zhou Qingchen still handed over his hands and said: "I am reporting to Lord Chang'an, but I made a mistake!"
"I am willing to accept the punishment. !"
Before Ying Chengxuan could say anything, Cai'er quickly hugged Zhou Qingchen's neck and looked at Ying Chengxuan pleadingly: "Uncle Chang'an Jun! It's Cai'er's fault!"
"Uncle Shilang is a good man and a righteous man. Please don't punish Uncle Shilang!"
Cai'er's big watery eyes were a little brighter: "Cai'er just wants to ask Uncle Chang'an Jun, if uncle If you can really talk to Earth Dragon, can you, can you help Cai'er tell Aweng's mother?"
"Cai'er will definitely take good care of her eldest mother and younger brother, and she will live well, Aweng. Mom, don’t worry.”
“And there’s more...”
Cai’er finally couldn’t hold back her tears anymore and cried bitterly: “Cai’er misses them so much!”
Ying Chengyu approached Cai'er and said seriously: "I..."
Ying Chengyu wanted to tell Cai'er that he was really not the great witch the world thought he was, nor did he communicate with ghosts and gods or command earth dragons. ability, it's all just misunderstanding and spreading lies.
This disaster has nothing to do with the so-called earth dragon, but is just the result of underground fault activity in the Fenwei Rift Valley. It is a manifestation of the laws of nature. No matter which ghost or god is sacrificed, it will be of no use.
To eradicate superstitious ideas, we must start from childhood. We must believe in science, study science, and use scientific tools to understand nature.
Tell Cai'er that the possibility of ghosts and gods existing in this world is very slim, and the possibility of Huangquan existing in this world is also very slim.
Cai'er's parents are dead if they are dead. Regardless of whether there is a underworld in this world, neither Ying Chenglong nor other shamans, alchemists and priests can help Cai'er bring this message to Cai'er's parents' ears. The child quickly extinguished this feeling.
If the person opposite is Ying Zheng, he is a descendant of the Qin royal family such as Ying Fusu, Ying Gao, Ying Huhai, etc.
If the person opposite is Lu Buwei, Han Fei, Li Si and other important officials of the court. Ying Chengyu would say this without hesitation!
To prevent them from embarking on the path of swallowing elixirs and seeking immortals and gods, so as not to damage their own health and the national power of the Qin Dynasty, it can also guide them to embark on the path of studying science and contribute to the development of the Qin Dynasty. .
But, do Cai'er and the victims really need these scientific principles?
No matter how serious Ying Chengxuan speaks, these truths will only go in and out of their left ear. They have no foundation or conditions to study science. Even if they try their best, they can only To protect yourself from hunger.
What Ying Chengyu said will have only one impact on them -
Crushing their remaining faith and expectations, leaving them with regrets and pain that they cannot let go of for the rest of their lives. !
Is it really necessary for Ying Chengyu to inflict further harm on these victims in order to break the superstition?
Seeing Ying Chengyu standing in front of him speechless for a long time, Zhou Qingchen bowed nervously: "It's the official who made a mistake! It's the official who acted wantonly! It's the official who didn't obey orders!"
"Please. Lord Chang'an punishes the official severely!"
"The official will never do this again!"
Zhou Qingchen's noise awakened Ying Chengyu.
Ying Chengqiu slowly shook his head and said, "It's not Shilang Zhou's fault for this matter."
"Ever since I said that the earth dragon will turn over to Zheng this year, I should have thought of what happened today."
"There is nothing in this world that only has benefits and no price!"
The things are done by Ying Chengxuan himself, and the words are said by Yingchengxuan himself.
Since we want to single-handedly reverse the huge casualties caused by the disaster, how can we not single-handedly bear the consequences!
Ying Chengyu forced out a smile and looked at Cai'er and said, "Your name is Cai'er, right?"
Cai'er nodded vigorously: "My name is Cai'er!"
While speaking, Cai'er subconsciously hugged Zhou Qingchen with all her strength, as if she wanted to use her small body to protect Zhou Qingchen.
Ying Chengxuan smiled even wider: "What a good name."
"It's getting late now, so I'll rest with your uncle first."
"I will consider what you said."
Zhou Qingchen hurriedly bowed and saluted as if he had been pardoned: "Thank you, Mr. Chang'an, for your magnanimity!"
Ying Chengyu gently nodded and allowed Zhou Qingchen to leave with Cai'er in his arms, then turned and walked towards the camp where the victims were resettled. go.
Feng Jie and others didn't know whether they should follow Ying Chengxuan, but Su Jiao followed Ying Chengxuan without hesitation, accompanying Ying Chengxuan silently.
In the camp, the victims who had been busy all day gathered together in twos and threes, sighing softly while eating.
“What on earth have we done wrong to cause Earth Dragon to turn over in our Zheng County!”
"Didn't you listen to what Li Zheng said before? This time the Earth Dragon came to play in our Guanzhong land. He also said early that he might turn over in my Guanzhong land. He also organized several sacrifices for this purpose. I'm afraid we are against the Earth Dragon. The sacrifice failed to satisfy Earth Dragon, Earth Dragon has just turned around in our Zheng County!"
"Fortunately, our Great Qin Lord Chang'an was able to order Earth Dragon, and we, Great Qin, have made a lot of preparations, otherwise this would have happened! I don’t know how many people will be killed or injured if Fan Dilong turns around!”
“We are lucky enough. Lord Chang’an personally brought the nobles from the Daqin Military Academy and the Minister to our Zheng County. If not, I’m afraid you and I would have been killed! It’s hard for them to escape this situation!”
“I wonder if Lord Chang’an can ask Houtu to take care of Ewa’er, what will he do if Ewa’er is only three years old!”
"We in Great Qin will be rewarded for our merits and punished for our mistakes. As long as you and I make more contributions, Lord Chang'an will definitely help us speak good words to Houtu. Please Houtu take care of your family and mine!"
< br>
"Yes, we have Lord Chang'an in Great Qin. Even if they go to Huangquan, they will definitely not be wronged!"
Sounds of mourning will still be heard from time to time in the camp. After all, there are too many people here. Lost loved ones in disasters.
However, there were many encouraging words, but the words they encouraged each other were inseparable from Ying Chengyu.
In their opinion, the living can be protected by Ying Chenglong.
As long as Ying Chengyu is still there, he will definitely not let them die of cold and starvation. They will definitely survive until the day they rebuild their home.
The dead can also be protected by Ying Chenglong.
As long as they work hard and make good contributions, Ying Chengyu will definitely be able to help them ask for rich soil to take care of their deceased family members.
However, they did not know that the expectations in their hearts had become the heaviest pressure on Ying Chengyu.
“I really don’t want to bear so many expectations and so many burdens.”
Stop and Ying Chengyu sighed softly: “Otherwise, I won’t fight for it. If you don’t fight, you will give up a great advantage.”
Ying Chengyu has never been a diligent person, nor does he have any great ambitions, nor does he have the awareness to shoulder the expectations of the world and the mission of historical change.
Otherwise, Ying Chengyu would not have wasted so many years of first-mover advantage. He only had good relations with Ying Zheng but never thought of competing with Ying Zheng for the throne.
But now, the expectations of countless victims are really pressing on Ying Chengyu’s shoulders!
Hidden in the night, Ying Chengyu raised his eyes and looked at the victims who gathered around the bonfire and praised Ying Chengyu.
After counting his breaths in silence, Ying Chengyu murmured to himself: "I, what should I do?!"
