Seeing Chu Yunsheng's eyes twitching slightly, Buterne sped up her speech and continued, "She has communicated with me about this matter in advance, and I basically agree with her. She is an ordinary human being, not a vampire or a degenerate, but she has the identity of both China and the United States. There is no need for her to be trapped here like us. It is more beneficial for the situation if she is outside. We also need to get information from the outside world. I believe that she has not betrayed us."
Chu Yunsheng was silent for a moment. He did not agree or disagree, but just said indifferently, "I know."
No one knew what he was thinking, whether he was angry, unhappy, or indifferent, so they did not dare to say anything else. If they said something wrong and made Chu Yunsheng have a bad impression of them because of a person who had little relationship with them, then it would not be worth it.
Chu Yunsheng and Ba Yi had just come back, and they came back alive. Whether it was the blood cavalry or the degenerate people, they were still very happy. At least, they were relieved. They were already rootless people. After crossing the line of fire, there was no way for them to go. For all the people in this strange team, whether they were ambitious or just planning to waste their time, this flag must not fall.
In that case, it was better to talk about something happy. Someone knew what Chu Yunsheng wanted to hear, so he immediately said that although they were trapped here for the past few days, they had never stopped practicing, and they had improved a lot.
Chu Yunsheng just smiled. In this kind of situation, if he believed it, then he would be a fool. He and Ba Yi's life was uncertain, and the future of the whole team was uncertain. It was not ruled out that there would be people who could really concentrate on practicing, but there would not be many of them. Most of them should be very anxious. How could they still have the mood to practice?
Of course, Chu Yunsheng would not expose them. Everyone was very excited that he and Ba Yi came back alive. What they said was just to express their emotions. If it were him, he would also do the same.
However, he really didn't know what to say. There were two things that he did not express his opinion on. It was not that he had learned the "wisdom" of those princes and officials at the entrance of the cave and deliberately acted mysterious. He disdained to do this, and he did not want to do this. But now he had to remain silent and did not express his opinion on the spot.
According to his own idea, if they could not defeat the enemy, they should run away. Especially in a situation where the situation was unclear, meaningless fighting was undoubtedly stupid. He agreed with Buterne's approach. Since it was destined that they could not defeat the enemy and could not run away, it was better to decisively choose not to resist and surrender, which not only avoided unnecessary casualties, but also preserved their strength, waiting for the right time.
Now that he was back, the spirits of the Blood Cavalry immediately trembled. Since they didn't really surrender, then they could immediately start fighting. On the other hand, Ge Lu and the others were all injured. Some were even lying on the bed and couldn't move. Their overall fighting strength was greatly reduced. Not to mention going out to fight with him, it would be troublesome for them to retreat.
Who did the right thing and who did the wrong thing, naturally, it was not clear.
But in fact, it was far from so simple. With his limited experience, he knew that at this moment, in front of everyone, he must not praise Buterne for doing the right thing. Otherwise, not only would it affect the morale of the degenerated people, but it would also have a profound impact on the blood cavalry. He couldn't only see the immediate benefits of the blood cavalry's strength, but also the subtle impact on everyone's psychology if the blood cavalry surrendered without fighting.
Not everyone could distinguish between when it was suitable to preserve their strength and when it was necessary to fight to the death. Even if they could distinguish it, after the first time, they would find various reasons to rely on it and gradually lose their unyielding will to fight to the death. If they encountered a bloody battle in the future, it would inevitably cause a big problem.
Similarly, he could not praise Ge Lu and the others. Not to mention that it was against his original intention, once he praised Ge Lu and the others' spirit of fighting to the death, the pressure on the blood cavalry would be huge, and it would immediately become a shame that they could not get rid of. In the future, if they encountered a completely unnecessary and meaningless battle to the death, they might be forced to die under this pressure, wasting the hard training of the formation.
Sometimes, he really envied Ding Yan. In the face of these problems, people like Ding Yan could deal with them with ease. Maybe he even enjoyed it, but he could only use his own depressed method to not say anything for the time being. After arranging the retreat, he wanted to talk to Buterne and Ba Yi alone and leave the trouble to these two people. He believed that they would handle it better than him, and they would also be the most suitable.
There was no need to mention the current relationship between Ba Yi and him. After all, they had been through life and death together. The key was that Ba Yi had been following him unswervingly. Although his purpose was unclear, his overall view was very good. Otherwise, in the spaceship, Ba Yi would not have risked his life to keep him alive. Sometimes, he really envied Ding Yan.
As for Buterne, Ba Yi would definitely be able to handle it, but Chu Yunsheng didn't know how to handle it. Sometimes, she seemed to be particularly powerful, like a cold and noble nobleman, but sometimes, she seemed to be particularly fragile, like a little girl. Her ability in this regard was even more unpredictable, which made people worried.
At this time, he thought of Wen Luo's good side. This girl must be captured. It was perfect to use her to cooperate with Buterne.
Compared with Ba Yi, Wen Luo was more sensitive and intelligent. She could do the most things with the least cost, and she was often able to hit the nail on the head in a complicated and chaotic situation. If Ba Yi was born to be a leader, then she was born to be a leader.
But Ba Yi and Wen Luo couldn't get along with each other. Chu Yunsheng had carefully observed that Ba Yi and Wen Luo basically didn't talk much. He didn't know if Ba Yi rejected outsiders because of the degenerated people, or Wen Luo had a deep-rooted fear and grudge against the degenerated people. In short, they were not in the same boat.
And Chu Yunsheng couldn't use Wen Luo himself. He was not born to be a leader. If Wen Luo wanted to cooperate with him, she might not be able to do anything even if she worked herself to death. In addition, he always felt that Wen Luo seemed to be very ambiguous when she talked to him. It often made the two of them awkward and couldn't talk seriously. In the current tense situation, this kind of conversation atmosphere was not good at all.
Despite all kinds of headaches, Chu Yunsheng still didn't believe that Wen Luo would betray Buterne, Gru, and others. Even though the expressions of Gru and others were the opposite of Buterne, Chu Yunsheng still thought so.
This girl was so smart. Even if she had the idea of "job-hopping" in the current situation, before her "death" was confirmed, she would not cut off her own path of retreat.
But the nature of the previous problem was the same. Chu Yunsheng couldn't say anything in public. The reason was also the same. If he didn't handle it well, in the future, either no one would dare to "go into the enemy's territory", or someone would use this as a reason to secretly look for a way out.
It was not that Chu Yunsheng didn't believe in the blood knights and the degenerated people, but people's hearts were always changing. No matter how powerful or wise someone was, no one could guarantee that someone would be loyal to them forever, unless they died and became a corpse lying there. Loyalty that was worthless could indeed last forever, and it might even become a grand excuse for everyone to do things.
Compared to the previous problem, Wen Luo's matter was still very easy to deal with. He could handle it himself.
However, what Chu Yunsheng didn't expect was that after he came back alive, the first person who came to show his "loyalty" was neither Wen Luo nor the fat man Zheng Youting, who was willing to be his henchman, but his old Indian friend, Amir.
After they parted in the jungle, Chu Yunsheng hadn't seen him again. He thought that he had died on the road, but he didn't expect that he was still alive, and he finally arrived at the China camp.
Looking at his dirty appearance, Chu Yunsheng knew that he was living a miserable life now. Especially after seeing that his wife only had one daughter, Chu Yunsheng knew that his youngest son was probably gone. The jungle was very cruel, and people died every day. The only difference was whether it was his turn or not.
Amir probably thought that Chu Yunsheng was surprised to see him, so he sighed and said something that surprised Chu Yunsheng again, "At that time, we could only save one person, so we had to give up little Ai Mi. We are already down and out, a son will only drag this family down. When a daughter grows up, maybe she can bring good luck to this family again."
With his limited foreign knowledge, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but ask, "Don't you Indians want to marry your daughter? Why?"
He never thought that a son was more important than a daughter. On the contrary, he himself was a daughter, and he was willing to risk his life for it. What he couldn't understand was that when Amir chose to live, it was actually so simple. It was just for the future of the family. It reminded him of another pair of miserable siblings he saw at the foot of the yellow mountain. He witnessed the tragedy from the beginning to the end.
Amir shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That is the custom of ordinary civilians and untouchables. Moreover, the situation is different now. At least we still have the surname and bloodline of nobles, so …"
His words seemed to tug at his wife's heartstrings, and she began to cry in a low voice, causing her daughter to also cry in horror.
Chu Yunsheng didn't have time to talk to him. He took out a few steamed buns from the aluminum pot that Ba Yi brought back, handed them to him, and said, "We are going to evacuate soon. There will be a battle near the northern cave soon. It is a war between two countries on this planet. You don't have to stay here. If you want to retreat with us, prepare as soon as possible. I will arrange a few cavalries to take you, but I can't help your other relatives."
Amir seemed to be very moved. He came to Chu Yunsheng just to ask Chu Yunsheng to say a few words for him, which could improve his current situation in the camp. He didn't expect that Chu Yunsheng would be willing to take him with him. His dirty black fingers that were holding the snow-white steamed bun squeezed hard into his palm, trembling slightly. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Chu Yunsheng did kill one of his sons, but he never regarded Chu Yunsheng as his enemy. It was not because his son deserved to be killed. No matter how useless his son was, he was still his own flesh and blood. At the beginning, it was because of the interests of the situation. But now, in this world, death had become a common occurrence. It was already a miracle that no one died in a family!
He also knew that a strong person like Chu Yunsheng didn't need to worry about whether he would take revenge or not, so whether he regarded Chu Yunsheng as an enemy or not, he really didn't expect that Chu Yunsheng would take his family to retreat. Although Chu Yunsheng had made it clear that he would only take his family with him, and no one else would have any chance, it still made him sigh with emotion. He really didn't know what Chu Yunsheng was planning. Was it just because he cooperated with him in the jungle? That was too ridiculous. In the eyes of a strong person, this kind of agreement could be broken at any time.
In fact, he really thought too much. Chu Yunsheng didn't think that complicated at all, and he didn't have the time to think about it. He just said it casually. If they wanted to leave, then he would take them with him. If they didn't, he didn't care. Like other acquaintances, if the fat man wanted to leave, he would also take him with him. After all, there was Prince Hu Er who was prepared to sacrifice his entire army to defend the frontline. Their group was basically not in danger. Otherwise, if it was a life and death escape, no one would take them with them.
In the distance, Wen Luo's figure had already appeared, and there seemed to be a familiar shadow next to her. Chu Yunsheng's heart skipped a beat. It was not because he saw Ruan Xiaohong next to the familiar shadow, but because the shadow itself evoked the memory that he had sealed for too long from this distance, and this memory itself also touched on the thing that he was most worried about on this planet besides the cardinal. He looked at Ba Yi, not knowing whether he should tell him or not. If he really met that person who looked very similar to him after the degenerated people spread out, what should he do?
Just when Chu Yunsheng was having a headache, Amir suddenly stopped him. He swallowed his saliva and said, as if he had made up his mind. It was not because he was touched by the money, but because he wanted to show his own value.
"Mr. Chu, there is one thing that I think it is necessary to tell you. Otherwise, with the current situation, it will eventually fall into the hands of aliens.
The reason why Prince Deere provided shelter to General Sharman was not really because of the friendship between generations. In this world, without real benefits, who would still remember the things that happened hundreds of years ago?
The real reason is that General Sharman has an artifact that was excavated from the ruins of the city of Harappa around 2000 BC. The Harappa culture is the origin of the entire Indian legend, and that artifact is said to be the core of this legend — the immortality of the soul reincarnation. You should also know that this is also the core of our entire Indian belief.
I knew that Prince Dier had always wanted to obtain this legendary item to revive their Undead King. However, General Sharman wasn't a fool. He knew that once he took this item out, he would lose his protection. Thus, he had been playing along with Prince Dier. Prince Dier also didn't dare to kill him. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a second person who would know where General Sharman had hidden it.
This thing looks like an ordinary bronze mirror from the ancient civilization of the Indus River Valley. Only a few people know that its material is not copper, but something that we can't understand. Because of the legend, and according to the patterns on the ruins, this thing is called the Realm of the Soul. It is said that the person who obtains it, even if he is an ordinary person, can use the soul to reincarnate, or even regenerate his body, and become a real ghost, immortal like a god!
Originally, it was only a legend. Other than the material, there was nothing special about it. Perhaps only Prince Deere believed in it. However, a few days ago, it should be the day that the giant appeared here. Probably after the giant died, the dark clouds dispersed, and the artifact seemed to have finally absorbed some mysterious energy. It glowed brightly, like a magic illusion, and immediately revealed the place where General Sharman temporarily hid it. If you want, I can find someone to steal it. I have a good relationship with one of General Sharman's trusted aides, so I can bribe him to help me.
Actually, we don't have to steal it. After Prince Deere left, he never came back. The vampires don't want this thing anymore, so it is worthless. Now, General Sharman probably wants to sell it for a good price based on its strange appearance that day. No matter if it is the Chinese or the Americans, he will sell it to whoever offers the highest price. In the end, it will still fall into the hands of the Chunichi Country and the Sky Feather Country. "

The foreshadowing for India is finally written tonight. Amir can go get his lunch box now. Hehe, just kidding.
