C402 Wilderness (1/2)
Zhao Yiming and the others still did not know that someone had already anxiously rushed over in order to take their lives. They had officially left the bustling areas of the Stellar Empire and entered the famous wilderness.
After the previous time of Taobao, a brand-new four-man team had appeared in the group. Monk Xu Yun had a huge admiration for Zhao Yiming, and Zhang Xinglong and Lv Tao were now his most loyal fans.
”This wilderness should be the most bitter place in the entire empire. Only a small number of nomads are struggling on the line between life and death.”
Zhao Yiming was a little puzzled as he said, ”I can see that the land here is very fertile, and the aquatic plants are also not bad. No matter if it's grazing or farming, they should be very good.”
Lv Tao no longer wore his usual happy and jovial expression, and instead said with a solemn expression: ”Previously, this place was indeed quite prosperous. The reason why it broke down and declined in such a state, was all because of the defeat at the Changling Mountains.”
After saying that, he pointed to the northwest and said, ”Three hundred and thirty-three miles towards that location is the Changling Battlefield. Our millions of loyal souls are buried there.”
Zhang Xinglong also gritted his teeth and said: ”Back then, the vast land of Mount Changshan was all divided into Rising Sun Empire, and when the people tried to resist, they were slaughtered, and the wilderness was one of them.”
At this time, Feng Guankui, who was not far from them, jumped down from his horse, grabbed a handful of soil and said with teary eyes, ”Every inch of land here is filled with the blood of us Starry Men.
The reason why this place is so fertile is because we, the Stars Pet Chain Supermarket, use our own flesh and blood to make fertilizer.
Wei Yang also came over from the side and said, ”Later on, Rising Sun Empire felt that there was no meaning to having this place, so he gave this land to the people.
When the emperor celebrated his birthday ten years ago, he returned to the border and gave us back the wilderness as a congratulatory gift. Previously, it was called Jiangning County, but the emperor had personally changed it to the wilderness.
It is to make the millions of citizens of our Stellar Empire never forget how many of our compatriots have buried their bones in this wilderness. ”
Zhao Yiming swept his eyes across them, and realised that everyone from Stellar Empire was gnashing their teeth in anger. This humiliation had already sunk deep into their bones, this hatred was branded deep into their souls.
Furthermore, the entire empire, from top to bottom, was not like the ignorant country in his previous life, constantly fooling the citizens, making them forget about their hatred, but passed it down through generations.
He sighed lightly and said, ”If in the future, there is a nation that can unify the entire continent, I believe that it will definitely be your Stellar Empire. Even if there is someone else that can unify the continent before you, you will definitely replace it.
However, I hope that when you transmit your hatred, you can not spread it too. After all, the ones who did the evil deeds back then were the rulers and not the innocent citizens. ”
Feng Guankui shouted, ”You are just spouting nonsense here. If not for the support of these citizens, how could the ruler do such a despicable thing? We should repay the favor with our teeth, pay with our blood.
Zhao Yiming gently shook his head and said: ”I'm not telling you guys when to repay the grievances, after all, this hatred is really too deep, but you guys really need to know how to control it, and the ruler can kill all of them, but when facing the common people, think of the pain in your heart.”
