Origin

The huge impact caused by the volcanic eruption could not be sealed by the spiritual energy barrier. The spiritual energy barrier previously laid out was almost instantly broken by the cold air waves, and billowing smoke with a pungent sulfur smell rose into the sky. At the same time, The ground began to shake violently.

The demon monster in the underground space wailed and screamed almost at the same time. All known words and vocabulary are not enough to describe the fear of this sound. It is mixed with infinite despair and extreme pain. This is not a monster. The screams were not a hundred or a thousand, but more than 200,000. They screamed at the same time, venting and expressing the same emotion. The despair and pain were infinitely expanded, shocking the heart, and thrilling.

Although people's endurance can be high or low, there is a limit after all. The cruel and desperate screams issued by the demon monster instantly exceeded the limit that Wu Zhongyuan could bear, and directly produced a violent shock and impact on his mind. This kind of The shock and impact can never be positive, but have an extremely negative impact. There were too many killings and the methods were too cruel. It was not the foolishness of women, nor the hypocrisy of compassion. It was just a matter of fact. This move directly led to Two hundred thousand demons died in an instant, and no matter whether they were good or bad, they were still lives, and they died in their own hands in an instant.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Wu Zhongyuan's mind. There were three main strongest thoughts. One was that Zhuge Liang burned the vine armor soldiers. This was the most similar thing he could think of to the situation in front of him, but it was only similar. The two There is no comparison at all, because Zhuge Liang only burned to death 30,000 vine armor soldiers, but this time he directly burned to death more than 200,000.

The second stronger thought was palpitations and panic. The panic mainly came from two aspects. One was the fear of the huge strength he possessed. This was the first time in his life that he was afraid of himself. The second is that they are worried that what they have done will be retributive and punished by God. Even if they are all bad people, they will still have their lives after all, which is more than 200,000 yuan.

The third strong thought is to find reasons and excuses for myself, eager to excuse myself and convince myself that this is the right thing to do. This mentality is also human. Everyone will subconsciously find excuses for what they do, and Wu Zhongyuan is no exception.

The first thing he thought of was that these people were enemies possessed by demons. They were ugly and cruel. If he didn't kill them, they would in turn massacre the human race.

For most people, it would be very objective and rare to think of this step. However, Wu Zhongyuan is the Yellow Emperor of the Central Plains. His pattern is far beyond that of ordinary people. He is sober and fair. Thinking of this step is followed by What comes is self-reflection, no, this is self-deception, this is taking the matter to the forefront, seizing the moral high ground, sanctimoniously passing the consequences of this matter onto the people of the human race, in order to justify his own crazy killings.

Regardless of whether they will kill humans in the future, even if they definitely do, at least they have not done so yet. Killing to prevent massacres is debatable in itself. Even in modern society, it is not possible to kill bad people in order to prevent crimes. Kill them before you kill them.

Apart from this excuse,

How else can you find a reasonable excuse for your killing spree?

Wu Zhongyuan couldn't think of it, because the enemy itself was a very vague concept. Enemies generally refer to those who are on a different stand than himself. From the standpoint of the demons, humans are their enemies.

Black smoke rushed out, and red magma exploded. At the moment when the magma erupted, the screams in the underground space disappeared. It only lasted less than ten seconds, and these ten seconds were very important to Wu Zhongyuan. It is nothing short of a nightmare-like existence.

There is a saying that life is unbearable. In the previous ten seconds, he had endured the unbearable weight of life. These ten seconds would be a nightmare that would never go away for him. He overestimated his mental endurance. , and also underestimated the huge impact that killing more than 200,000 lives in one fell swoop would have on his own spirit.

Because the previous impact was too strong, this time it triggered a violent eruption of the volcano, with magma rising to the sky dozens of feet high.

Escape is also a human instinct, originating from the human instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil. When encountering something that they do not want to face, everyone will instinctively escape. Wu Zhongyuan also wanted to run away. He did not want to stay nearby, even though the two One hundred thousand demon monsters had no souls left, but he always felt that there were two hundred thousand demon souls lingering around him.

Just before the teleportation, Wu Zhongyuan changed his mind and chose to stay here. As for why he had to stay here, he couldn't figure it out. Maybe it was just out of a man's responsibility and unwilling to escape the consequences.

He didn't have an accurate idea of ​​how long he stayed here. It might have been only five minutes, or it might have been ten minutes. The hot magma encountered the extreme cold, causing a large area of ​​fog. As the fog became thicker and thicker, almost all around him could reach out. No fingers were visible, and only then did Wu Zhongyuan teleport away.

He did not return to the giant turtle's belly to meet the people, but returned to a certain place on the giant turtle's route. He did not want to face the people now because he knew that his emotions were in a period of violent fluctuations.

Wu Zhongyuan appeared at the southern foot of a mound, and he could see a giant turtle moving towards it. In fact, he wanted to see someone at this time, and what he wanted to see most deep down in his heart was his master. This was also his instinctive reaction. , when encountering a huge change, he will first think of people who can provide him with shelter.

Although he is uneasy, he knows that his master is gone, and the second person in his subconscious is his parents, but his parents are also gone, and the third person is his woman. He may not need shelter now, but he needs recognition and comfort.

The one my four women want to see most at this time is Wang Xinran, because he grew up in modern times and has a modern mentality, and Wang Xinran is very objective and can evaluate this matter relatively objectively.

But Wang Xinran is not here, so Wu Di becomes the first choice. Telling the matter to Wu Di is not much different from telling the matter to Wang Xinran. The only difference is that Wu Di may try to figure out his psychology and say what he wants to hear, but Wang Xinran Then you will say whatever comes to mind.

At this time, the temperature had begun to rise, but it had not yet risen to a level that the soldiers of the three tribes could tolerate. Wu Zhongyuan returned to the belly of the giant turtle, said a few words to everyone before teleporting away with Wu Di.

He didn't take Wu Di far away, he just brought her out from inside the giant turtle and wrapped her in spiritual energy for protection.

Although Wu Zhongyuan brought Wu Di out, he was not in a hurry to explain the situation to her. He was hesitating. The reason why he hesitated was that he was worried that Wu Di would not understand him and would misunderstand that he was mentally fragile and moaning because of his restlessness and panic. .

Wu Di noticed something strange in Wu Zhongyuan's expression and knew that he had something to say to her, but she did not ask any questions and just looked at Wu Zhongyuan quietly.

After hesitating for a long time, Wu Zhongyuan finally told him, including what he did last night and his mental state at this time.

Wu Di patiently listened to what Wu Zhongyuan said, and after pondering, he said softly, "The Holy Lord is a dragon and a phoenix among men, a brave hero, carrying the weight of thousands of stones, and carrying out actions to stabilize the world. It is extremely common to feel restless after a war. It’s because of losing one’s heart in war, also known as madness and epilepsy. In one night, the enemy was wounded half a million, and only the Holy One can bear the support. If I had been a concubine, I would have lost my mind and gone crazy.”

Wu Zhongyuan sighed and did not answer.

Wu Di said again, "What I said is indeed the truth. Have you ever seen those warriors and soldiers who have been disarmed and returned to their fields? Every time they wake up in the dark night, there are countless people who are incoherent, moody, panic and anxious, and even worse, they even hurt themselves, or hang themselves." .”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded. What Wu Di said is a standard sequelae of war, a type of mental illness. This disease is rare in our country, but is more common in countries with foreign devils. The reason why this situation occurs It’s not that the psychological quality of the soldiers of the foreign devils is worse than ours, but because the foreign devils have been fighting everywhere over the years, they have more sequelae of war, while our soldiers have not fought in more than thirty years.

Wu Zhongyuan originally thought that Wu Di would try to excuse him, but he never thought that Wu Di did not do that. Instead, he said seriously, "Although the sage is a king and possesses profound cultivation, he is still a young hero. He has not experienced many things and encountered great changes." It is reasonable to feel unstable. Those five hundred thousand demon beasts did die at the hands of the Holy One. But has the Holy One ever thought that from the moment you rule the world, you will be the master of the world, and all three races will be abandoned? As I said before, the people of our clan live and work in peace and contentment only because you are kind and caring for the people, and you have nothing to do with every warrior and soldier who died in the battle. The merits are all your fault, and the faults are also your fault."

Wu Zhongyuan still didn't answer, but just reached out and held Wu Di's hand, which made him feel more at ease.

Wu Di added, "Don't say that the Holy One is not a brave and ruthless person. Even if he is a crazy villain who kills so many people, he must be in a difficult state of mind and his hands will be shaking with fear."

Hearing Wu Di's words, Wu Zhongyuan felt much calmer. People have their own psychological endurance limit. In fact, he was already a little panicked before burning the 200,000 demonic birds to death, and he killed 200,000 demonic birds in one fell swoop. , directly exceeded his endurance limit. His current reaction is actually very normal. It would be too illogical to say that he had killed so many people but acted like a normal person. Only people with severe IQ deficits would think that his panic at this time was abnormal. of.

Wu Di said again, "Your Majesty has a kind heart. He will not be weak when he is strong, nor will he be strong when he is weak. The reason why he is upset this time is because the demon beasts he killed have no power to fight back in front of you. Killing them is suspected of bullying the weak. , if this battle was fought by us, the Holy One would not have this entanglement."

"Not unreasonable." Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. Wu Di's words were on point. This was indeed the essence of his struggle. The enemy had no power to resist.

Wu Di smiled back.

"You are really smart, you can wake up the dreamer with just one word." Wu Zhongyuan said with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty," Wu Di also smiled, "If I am ignorant and stupid, how can I accompany the king..."
