Zhang Weiyu and Lü Shu looked at each other. Both of them were thinking about the pros and cons, as well as their judgment of the five cultivation methods.
The others had already been dismissed by Lü Shu. Now, their conversation had to be kept secret. Zhang Weiyu knew what Lü Shu was worried about and knew what to do. He looked at Lü Shu and said, "This is actually a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"That depends on whether I'm alive to take it." Lü Shu could even push Tengra for so long, so this cultivation method was nothing to him.
Zhang Weiyu suddenly emphasized, "This time, we don't need you to make any promises, nor do we need you to agree to any conditions. We just need you to let us train them!"
Lü Shu pondered for two seconds. "That's fine, but you have to agree to one condition."
"Sure! Say it! "Zhang Weiyu looked at Lü Shu seriously and said.
However, Zhang Weiyu suddenly felt that something was wrong!
Wait … He was giving cultivation methods to others, but he had to agree to one condition?! Wasn't he here to let Lü Shu owe him a favor? Why didn't Lü Shu owe him a favor? Instead, it seemed like he owed him a favor!
Zhang Weiyu looked at Lü Shu's innocent face quietly …
"Negative emotion points from Zhang Weiyu, + 666!"
"Let me think about it." Zhang Weiyu said, "Why do I have to agree to one condition when I'm here to give you the cultivation methods?"
Lü Shu looked at Zhang Weiyu innocently. "Go ahead."
Zhang Weiyu thought about it and decided to start from the beginning. "We want to give you five cultivation methods."
"No," Lü Shu said.
"We don't need any promises from you. We just need you to let us train them."
"Sure, but you have to promise me something." Lü Shu shrugged. "Is there a problem?"
"Negative emotions from Zhang Weiyu, + 199!"
Zhang Weiyu sighed. "Forget it, forget it. What are the conditions?"
"The condition is that you teach for free." Lü Shu said calmly, "Look, our Wu Weijun's expenses are so high, and he doesn't have much income now, so money is very important …"
Zhang Weiyu pondered. How did it become "our Wu Weijun"? Why did it make him feel a little sympathetic …
It's just that after struggling for so long, you still don't want to fork out the 2,000 godnotes each?
In truth, Zhang Weiyu wasn't stupid. He knew where the problem lay. They wanted to play around with Wu Weijun like an exquisite toy. Even though they were crippled, it would be a consolation to have an army that could shine in their hands.
Therefore, when Zhang Weiyu and the others looked at Wu Weijun's group, they were like parents hoping that their children could fulfill their dreams that they could not achieve. They gave them the best things and sent them on their way.
At the end of the day, they had been alone for too long. The once all-powerful Inner Hall Magistrates had fallen from glory into the abyss, and their hearts were filled with regret and pain.
But now, when they realized that a bunch of cripples like them could shine again, they were a little excited and expectant.
Most importantly, however, Zhang Weiyu understood Lü Shu. Lü Shu had helped them before, and he'd even saved Zhang Weiyu's life.
Lü Shu didn't belong to any faction, and Lü Shu had his own secrets. That was the basis of their mutual trust.
The Inner Hall Magistrates didn't serve anyone other than the Divine King, and now, they didn't have to serve anyone.
To Zhang Weiyu, they were doing it for the sake of sentiment, not profit. They hadn't changed, and they hadn't been tempted by the nobles. Their loyalty was still to the Divine King!
It was a little pretentious to give up riches and glory, and run off to the mountains to train in Wu Weijun. But it just so happened that the Inner Hall Magistrates had the last shred of dignity left.
Lü Shu seemed to realize this, which was why he'd dared to raise his conditions.
Zhang Weiyu looked at Lü Shu calmly. "You have to take care of our meals, right?"
Lv Shu immediately beamed with joy. "Of course, of course, of course, of course!"
"Aren't you going to take the plates away?" Zhang Weiyu said coldly. He knew that Li Heitan must've been instructed by Lü Shu to take their plates away.
"Hahaha, look at this misunderstanding …"
After the two finished talking, Lü Xiaoyu saw Lü Shu winking at him. It was done!
Suddenly, Lü Shu was even more excited to see how far Wu Weijun could go in the future.
That night, Lü Shu came to Zhang Weiyu's house. More than 50 people were either sitting on the bed or on the floor, looking at Lü Shu.
Lü Shu smiled and said, "It's a pleasure working with you."
Zhang Weiyu patted him on the shoulder. "We have to make it clear to you about Wu Weijun's control."
Lü Shu calmed down. This meant that they were going to get down to business. Just talking about Wu Weijun's control? How could they talk about it? Lü Shu would definitely not hand over the control to this group of people.
"Don't think too much." Zhang Weiyu said calmly, "Although we're willing to give you the cultivation method, we don't want it to be leaked. So, Wu Weijun and these people must be under your control! We trust you, not them! "
"What do you mean?" Lü Shu thought for a while and said, "Do you have any ideas?"
"Turn them all into your slaves." Zhang Weiyu said, "You have the cultivation method. Maybe your mental strength can't withstand so many slaves at once, but you can take it slow. Only when they become your slaves can we really rest assured."
Lü Shu hesitated. He was a modern person, not a person from this Lü Zhou world.
Therefore, Zhang Weiyu and the others thought that taking slaves was a common thing, but he felt very awkward. He had never thought of bullying anyone, nor did he want to be a slave owner.
He never wanted anyone to control his freedom, so putting himself in their shoes, he didn't want to control other people's freedom either.
Lü Shu suddenly said, "It would be hypocritical of me to say that everyone is equal. I don't want to control anyone, and I have never thought of looking down on anyone one day. Moreover, I agree with another point of view: the loyalty gained from controlling others' life and death is not true loyalty. When a person's life and freedom are in his own hands, he will be able to exert his greatest potential."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Weiyu and the others looked at each other and seemed to be thinking about something.
After a long while, Zhang Weiyu took a deep breath and said, "You are very similar to someone we know in this aspect … She has also said something similar to what you mean. Of course, there are still differences between the words."
Lü Shu was stunned. Who else had said such words in front of Zhang Weiyu and the others?
Lü Shu felt that there was something strange about it, but he could not figure out what it was.
"It's not that I don't want to take slaves, but I don't think this is the best way." He said, "Is there any other way besides taking slaves? I'm not unreasonable. To be honest, I'm not a selfless person. Although I don't want people to be my slaves, I also don't want to be betrayed. "
Lü Shu was such a secular and pragmatic person. He dared to admit his selfishness and always insisted on his bottom line.
"Yes, there is another way." Zhang Weiyu thought about it and said, "A covenant. The loyal person voluntarily signs a covenant with the host. The host cannot control the loyal person's behavior. Only when the loyal person betrays the host will the power hidden in the covenant break the loyal person's foundation. You have to think about it. The binding force of this covenant is too weak compared to the slave imprint. The biggest advantage of slave owners is that they can send their slaves to their deaths on the battlefield if they want to. Some slaves are born to be cannon fodder on the battlefield. If you use such a method, you have to manage the army carefully if you want to control it. They just can't betray you. "
Lü Shu exhaled. This was enough. He did not need anyone to be cannon fodder for him.
Loyalty was not something that could be bought with shackles. It must be known that Tengra's Earth Net did not take anyone as a slave. Everyone was not forced to die, so the word "hero" had meaning.
