Chapter 99 Li Ke's Definition of Man
For example, if a warrior accidentally kills the whole family of a farmer and has no legitimate reason, a contract of revenge appears between them and triggers a law of revenge.
If this warrior has something that is recognized as an important mission to be completed, then the Avenger must wait for his duties to be completed before he can revenge. Otherwise, his revenge will be unjust, and will be criticized and despised by others, and anyone can take his life without being blamed. And what is interesting is that if the murderer gives the Avenger a considerable favor or any important information, then the Avenger must obey an inexplicable law and cannot kill his enemy for the time being. He must let him go when he meets later. He will not be able to take revenge before giving the same news and favors, otherwise this revenge will be also unjust and will be despised.
In this way, wealthy businessmen, warriors and clans who are rich and have a lot of information and knowledge can easily get a lot of time to prevent the other party from revenge. Although there are also people who take risks, the huge gap between the two sides also makes taking risks an almost impossible thing for the "untouchables". As for obtaining the power of taboos, or turning into ghosts to make trouble?
Sorry, even if the Balance Sect doesn't want to deal with these things, if such a situation really happens, they must come and wipe their butts.
So in Ionia, if you come from an ordinary farmer family and have not had the talent and effort of robbery, and the patience that no one is willing to teach you for three or four years but are still willing to wait, then you basically have no great prospects. You can only continue to be a farmer and accumulate money as much as possible in your future life so that your next generation can learn some good skills.
Because the Ionian class has been abnormally solidified, the social progress is just slowly moving towards India. Everyone knows in their hearts that Ionian is just because of the special geographical environment? Too much oppression of the people will lead to chaos in the world? The demons are everywhere, and this has become a little more harmonious? Didn’t it really make people resent? And completely train their people, regard the so-called “tolerance”, “understanding” and “balance” as a life creed? Take the journey of life as a journey of patience.
The reason why Li Ke didn't do anything in Ionia before is because the land of Ionia is too rich and full of magic? In the absence of enough people, Ionia is the best choice to keep the current status quo and prevent the situation from worsening.
"But... many of them are good people. They treat peasant women and protect them? And they also enlighten them about their doubts... are they really that bad?"
But for Ah Li, all the people who appeared in front of her were good people and good people who were well-known far and wide. Even if she was ignorant, she had seen these in the memories of many people.
"That's because they know not to let these people live well, listen to their words and live well? Then their beautiful life will disappear. Indeed, many people are indeed kind? For example, the masters and others, they are undoubtedly good people? But whoever tells you that good people are definitely not doing evil? Doing the right things in the wrong position is often just a mistake in increasing his position. The world keeps moving forward? The wheel was a novel and great invention thousands of years ago? But now it is just a daily thing to be visible? The same is true for people. Whether the things are correct depends not only on the development and reasons of things, but also on the course of history. The reason why I think I am right is just because I see farther than them because of my hometown."
After Li Ke finished speaking, he smiled. With a wave of his hand, the memories that emerged from him disappeared completely, leaving only a brilliant starlight. Ah Li was not satisfied with the answer this time, because she had more and more confusion and questions, which made her eagerly want to get an answer from Li Ke.
"Okay, if you are really interested in these, then go and take a look at the "Blessings" by Mr. Ma who I copied and annotated, and the "Capital" written by another Mr. Ma, and the "His Thoughts" written by the teacher who I have learned very poorly. You will understand why I want to do these things, and you will also understand why I call those people monsters and want to kill them all."
Having touched Ali's head habitually, her ears tilted, Li Ke was about to send Ali out of her soul space so that she could have a good rest, or observe his swordsmanship and fighting style in Yatoks' memory to welcome the next battle. After feeling Li Ke's resistance, Ali didn't have time to think about these things Li Ke said to her because of a misunderstanding, but remembered another thing.
"That...you, do you think I am a monster? I am a fox who needs human feelings and memories to survive, so in your eyes, am I a monster?"
Ali's words made Li Ke stunned. He realized that Ali came to find him to find food, but he just ate Yatoks' memory. This discovery surprised him because he didn't know that Ali actually had such attributes, but even so, he didn't feel angry.
"Memory and emotion are proof of being a human being. Ah Li only knows that the one who devours these things is naturally a monster."
His answer made Ah Li's face dim, but his words did not end.
"But a person's origin and race cannot represent a person's character. A person's life depends on his own choices. If he chooses to use his own defect as the ability to benefit others, or to avoid this defect as much as possible, it will cause harm to others. Then no matter what race it is, what terrible abilities it has, or what appearance it looks like, it will only be a human being, a kind human being with a passionate heart in my eyes."
He smiled and waved his hand at Ali, and Ali, who was stunned on the spot, also felt that she was constantly being sent out by Li Ke.
"So no matter what race you are, as long as you are willing to treat others with kindness and are willing to regard other people who repay the same kindness as you, you are human beings, Miss Ali."
"Ah...well!"
"So don't discriminate racially, even if it's you who discriminate against yourself."
This was the last thing Ahri heard, and when she opened her eyes from the darkness again, what she saw was Lilia who was quietly kneeling beside her, and books that were quietly reflected by the sun, with her saliva marks.
