I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 260 If killing one person can save tens of millions of people, should you kill him?

It's a moonlit night again, and seeing you makes me miss home even more.

Muliang City, on top of the city wall.

The Lone Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang was drinking with someone.

The person who drank with him was none other than Xiao Yu, the current Red King of Beili.

"Foster father, my mother asked me to send her regards to you.

My mother has been doing well recently, but the old man hasn't visited her place for a long time, and it has been very quiet.

But don't worry, it won't be long before your mother will be able to have her own.

As long as I sit in that position, the whole world will be mine.”

Luo Qingyang nodded, took the wine handed to him by Xiao Yu, and drank it all in one gulp.

For some reason, I felt that the world-famous Qiu Lu Bai seemed to taste a little worse than before, and was far inferior to the wine Chu Zhao had that day.

Xiao Yu filled his glass again, then took a sip and continued, "Something happened in the palace recently. Chu Zhao went to Tianqi not long ago. I heard that the old man was very angry and didn't attend court for several days. It seems that he had a big unpleasantness with Chu Zhao."

Luo Qingyang drank it all again, and drank three cups in a row. An irrepressible smile appeared on his originally calm face: "Haha, it seems that your father was beaten by him, but... well done!"

"Are you saying that Chu Zhao beat my father?"

Xiao Yu was shocked: "How dare he?!"

"Do you think it's ridiculous? Do you think that no one in Apocalypse City dares to beat your father?"

Luo Qingyang glanced at him and smiled faintly: "This is not the first time he has beaten your father, and not only him, but Baili Dongjun has also beaten him.

The emperor is not as high and mighty as you think.

Of course, except for a few three or four people, the emperor is still someone that people look up to.

At least, I don’t dare to hit your father.”

He is only half a step away from the state of mind now. If he dares to beat Xiao Ruojin, he will definitely not be able to leave Tianqi City.

Xiao Yu nodded: "Now many ministers in the court have joined my camp, and the throne will be mine sooner or later.

Of course, if the White King was not blind and if the Sixth Brother was not demoted, I have to admit that they would have a better chance of winning than me.

By the way, godfather, who are those three or four people you mentioned?"

"We have two people in Beili, Baili Dongjun and Xie Zhize from Tianxia Diyilou." Luo Qingyang took a sip and said slowly: "There are also two people in Chu State, Chu Zhao and Wuming from Yuelu Hongchenlou, the former Western Chu Confucian Immortal Gu Chen."

Xiao Yu snorted: "When I ascend the throne, I will make them bow down to me sooner or later, as well as Wangcheng Mountain.

I don't know why the old man is so afraid. If he can't kill him with one person, he will send millions of people. If millions of people still can't kill him, he will send 100,000 troops, 1 million...

I don't believe that they can't be killed. They are just called immortals, but they are not real immortals.

It is ridiculous that the old man withdrew the 5,000 soldiers from Wangcheng Mountain just because of Chu Zhao's words. "

"Is it funny?"

"Uh... Godfather, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at Xiao Yu's nonchalant look, Luo Qingyang couldn't help but sigh.

"Did you know that Chu Zhao once caused a big disturbance in Tianqi City, and even your royal grandfather almost died in his hands?"

Xiao Yu was stunned. He had never heard of this.

More than 20 years is enough to bury many stories.

"Do you know that the Sword Lake outside Tianqi City was created by his sword?"

"Do you know that Chu Zhao also sat where you are sitting not long ago? If he draws his sword, I won't even have the chance to do so?"

After three questions in a row, Xiao Yu was confused.

"Yu'er, if you really want that position, you must remember what your foster father said."

Luo Qingyang took a sip of wine and said in a very serious manner: "You can be an enemy of anyone in the world, but don't be an enemy of Wangchengshan and don't be an enemy of Chu Zhao.

Because I really can't imagine who in this world can stop him if he wants to kill someone."

Xiao Yu was stunned. He had never seen such a serious expression on the face of this cheap godfather.

For the first time, he began to take Chu Zhao seriously and asked, "Foster father, is Chu Zhao very strong?"

"Strong, very strong."

Luo Qingyang nodded heavily and added one more sentence at the end.

"He gives me a stronger feeling than Mr. Li did back then."

Xiao Yu was stunned. "The Mr. Li you are talking about, isn't he the Mr. Li from the school?"

"Yes, before Chu Zhao grew up, Mr. Li was the best in the world. It is said that Beili was jointly founded by him, Emperor Gaozu Xiao Yi, and Xie Zhize of the best building in the world. He once dominated the entire martial arts world for more than a hundred years."

Although it was just heard, Xiao Yu knew Luo Qingyang. If it was not true, Luo Qingyang would never say it, so he was shocked.

"From what you said, Mr. Li is so powerful, but Chu Zhao is even more powerful than him? Is there really such a powerful person in this world?"

Luo Qingyang touched Jiuge beside him and nodded slowly, with great certainty.

"have!

You should know that if you don’t reach the thirteen realms of martial arts and achieve freedom, you will ultimately remain an ordinary person.

The free and easy heaven realm is divided into four realms: Jiuxiao, Fuyao, Daxiaoyao and Banbu Shenyou.

Once you enter the realm of great freedom in the free and easy heaven, what you practice is not the way of martial arts, but the way of heaven.

With every move, the whole world responds, and the power is inexplicable.

This is why there are quite a few people in the world who are in the free and easy heaven realm, but only a few of them can be called immortals.

Because martial arts are easy to practice, but the way of heaven is hard to find, it is no longer determined by hard work and talent, but also depends on some chance.

But no matter whether it is the Sword Immortal, the Knife Immortal, or the Spear Immortal, they have only realized the true meaning of martial arts and have begun to resonate with heaven and earth.

Only when one enters a state of spiritual journey can one be considered a true immortal.

Once a thought arises, all things follow the mind. "

Xiao Yu knew some of these things, but he didn't know some of them.

But no matter whether he knew it or not, he was shocked when he heard it.

"So what you mean is that Chu Zhao, Baili Dongjun and others are all in the realm of divine wandering, true immortals?"

Luo Qingyang nodded, then shook his head: "The Drunken Immortal Baili Dongjun, the former Confucian Immortal Gu Chen, Xie Zhize in the No. 1 Building in the World, and the immortal on the overseas fairy mountain, they must be wandering in spirits, but Chu Zhao..."

Luo Qingyang paused and sighed, "He was already in the Divine Wandering Profound Realm more than a decade ago, and could rival Mr. Li. Now... he seems to have blended into nature, and people don't feel the slightest bit of danger. But I know he is very dangerous, and his realm may be above the Divine Wandering."

As he spoke, Luo Qingyang sighed deeply: "You have never seen him take action, and Beili rarely publicizes his deeds. The reason why your father is so afraid of him is not only because his martial arts are unfathomable, but also because he is unpredictable and has no track to follow. He is ruthless and cruel.

Remember my words, Chu Zhao cannot be your enemy.

Even if you get to that position one day, don’t provoke Wang Chengshan, let alone think about provoking him.”

"Godfather, is Wangcheng Mountain related to him?"

Luo Qingyang smiled: "Of course there is, otherwise who do you think killed Zhao Yuzhen's destiny?
I heard that he has a son who practices Taoism on Wangcheng Mountain and has now become a master in the Great Free and Easy Realm.

A twenty-something-year-old who is in the Great Free and Easy Realm, he is indeed worthy of being his son."

At the end, Luo Qingyang couldn't help but sigh.

Da Xiaoyao, who was in his twenties, was indeed an amazing genius.

But I heard... his adoptive father practiced sword all day in Muliang City. Where did he hear this from?

As if seeing through Xiao Yu's doubts, Luo Qingyang's eyes flashed with reminiscence, and he sighed, "Not long ago, the head of Bai Xiao Hall came here."

Xiao Yu nodded: "Don't worry, foster father, I won't provoke Chu Zhao, nor will I provoke Wang Chengshan."

Luo Qingyang hummed and waved his hand: "Go ahead."

Xiao Yu left with a little panic.

He has always been full of confidence because the Lone Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang stands behind him.

There are five sword immortals in the world, and Lone Sword Immortal is recognized as the strongest sword immortal.

Therefore, he has the confidence.

But now everything has changed. The Taoist swordsman from Wangcheng Mountain has entered a trance.

That would be fine, after all, the Taoist Sword Immortal is an outsider and does not interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world or the court.

But now he was told that in addition to the Taoist Sword Immortal, there were also Baili Dongjun of Xueyue City and Xie Zhize of the World's Number One Tower who were stronger than his adoptive father.

More importantly, the retired emperor of Chu State, Chu Zhao.

If he remembered correctly, this person seemed to be the uncle of his sixth brother.

The temperature in the desert at night is always very low, but Xiao Yu inexplicably felt that it was particularly cold tonight.

He tightened his cloak and felt a chill on his back.

"Someone... send the order!
Everyone, do your best to collect all the information related to Chu Zhao. "Speaking of which, although that person is Lao Liu's uncle, Lao Liu has always been hostile to him, and the Chu State does not seem to care about Lao Liu, so does he still have a chance?
Xiao Yu's mind instantly became active.

If we can win over this person, all the people like Tianwaitian and Prince Nanjue will have to stand aside.

With his support and the State of Chu behind him, wouldn't the world of Beili be in our pocket?
At this time, Chu Zhao, whom he wanted to win over, was boarding the ship with Ji Ruofeng.

They did not use any martial arts, but went up the mountain step by step like ordinary people.

There is a dilapidated temple on the mountain. The words on it are blurred and the Buddha statue in the temple has lost its arms. It is obvious that it has been abandoned for a long time.

There is a copper tripod in the temple courtyard. A bonfire under the tripod is crackling, and the soup base in the tripod is bubbling and steaming.

At this time, Lei Wujie, Xiao Se and Wu Xin had already finished dinner.

Lei Wujie was practicing on the roof of the temple, the invincible magical power of the Great Arhat Subduing Demons Vajra taught by Wuxin.

When Chu Zhao and the others came up, they saw him break the roof and fall into the temple.

Then, a scream was heard from the temple.

Wu Xin squatted down at the gap and looked at Lei Wujie with a smile: "Good, you have learned well."

"What's good about it..." Lei Wujie smiled bitterly. He wanted to stand up, but he felt that all the energy in his body had been drained and he didn't even have the strength to move.

Wu Xin ignored him and stood up, looking at Xiao Se who was eating soup in the courtyard: "It's your turn next."

"I don't know any martial arts. I only know some light skills for escaping. I don't know any boxing skills. What can you teach me? The martial arts of floating on water is pretty good. Can I choose it?"

Wu Xin shook his head: "You think too much. You can't learn the magical power of flying and treading waves. Even if you learn it, you will only fall behind halfway."

"Flying and stepping on waves?" Xiao Se frowned, "Are all the martial arts in Luosha Hall named so casually?"

"No, some of the names on the martial arts manuals were erased, so I just picked them randomly."

Just then, a laugh was heard outside the temple.

"Then your naming skills are really not that good. I clearly remember that the light skill was called Xiaoyaoyou."

As these words were spoken, Chu Zhao and his wife, as well as Ji Ruofeng, who was wearing a mask, walked in from outside the temple.

"Xiaoyaoyou, this name is not bad, but it sounds like the name of a Taoist martial art."

Xiao Se murmured something, turned to look at the four people who came in, and saluted, "Uncle, aunt, master."

Wu Xin also jumped down from the roof, put his hands together, and greeted them with a smile: "Uncle Master, Aunt Yue, Aunt Yin, Senior."

Chu Zhao nodded and said nothing.

He really didn't like the monk Wuxin who had taken his cabbage, so he walked to the campfire and started eating.

I have to say that Wuxin’s cooking skills are pretty good. At least the mushroom pot soup in front of him is well cooked.

Yueyao and Yin Luoxia, on the other hand, were very concerned about the little bald guy. It was probably because the more the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more she liked him.

Xiao Se looked at his master and asked with concern: "Master, are you okay?"

"I'm fine now, thanks to you, otherwise your uncle might not have treated my injury."

Xiao Se laughed when he heard this, bowed to Chu Zhao and said, "Thank you, uncle."

Chu Zhao waved his hand and looked at his wife and Wu Xin: "Stop chatting, let's eat. Little Baldy, aren't you going to teach Xiao Se martial arts? Hurry up."

Yueyao and Yin Luoxia glared at Chu Zhao unhappily and sat down next to him.

Wuxin took a step forward and came in front of Xiao Se. Purple light flowed in his eyes, and golden lotus could be faintly seen rotating in them.

"This is..." Xiao Se frowned slightly.

"What I want to teach you is how to attract the inner demon!" Wuxin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with purple light flashing in his eyes.

After the two men taught martial arts, Lei Wujie in the temple also came in.

After running out of the temple, he saw Ji Ruofeng wearing an evil ghost mask. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Senior Chu, who is this senior?"

"Given your relationship with his father, he calls you senior?" Ji Ruofeng was a little surprised.

You know, among their generation, Lei Mengsha and Chu Zhao had the best relationship.

The title of "senior" is a bit too formal.

Lei Mengsha scratched his head awkwardly: "Senior is too young. I really can't bring myself to call you uncle."

Ji Ruofeng said in sudden realization, and introduced himself: "My last name is Ji, and I am a good friend of your father. I am older than your father."

Lei Wujie understood and bowed respectfully.

"Shibo!"

"Okay, okay, you are much more polite than your father." Ji Ruofeng said happily.

Lei Wujie smiled innocently, then turned to Yue Qing and Yin Luoxia and bowed, saying, "Junior Lei Wujie, nice to meet you two aunts."

"Well, I left in a hurry last time and forgot to give you a gift. Take it."

Yue Qing and Yin Luoxia each took out a gift and handed it to Lei Wujie, and then Ji Ruofeng, who had nothing, was dumbfounded.

Fortunately, Lei Wujie didn't care. He thanked Yue Qing and Yin Luoxia, sat down opposite Chu Zhao, and said, "Senior, I have a question. If killing one person can save millions of people, but this person is innocent, will you kill him?"

"Why did you think of asking this question?"

"I said it before without thinking. Xiao Se said to kill, but I..."

"You hesitated, didn't you?"

Lei Wujie nodded continuously as if he had met a close friend.

Chu Zhao smiled, was silent for a moment, and replied: "In fact, the essence of this question is to discuss an abstract good and evil. This abstract good and evil is meaningless because any problem must consider the specific context and actual situation.

That is, the meaning of good and evil can only be reflected in specific issues.

Who is that person?

Who are the tens of millions of people?
In different situations, making different choices that best fit the actual situation is "good."

"I didn't understand." Lei Wujie said frankly.

"Let's put it this way. The essence of goodness is the tendency of the will. Killing ten thousand people with good intentions is good, and killing one person with evil intentions is also evil.

If you kill a good person, then you kill someone.

If you do nothing, you don't save those people, but you don't kill anyone either.

Taking someone else's life to save others is neither kindness nor justice."

Lei Wujie laughed, then asked doubtfully: "If you say so, then Xiao Se's choice to kill is not good, but he is not a bad person."

Chu Zhao smiled and said, "Different positions, different choices. His identity is different from yours. He is the prince of Beili. He has been taught since childhood that he must kill decisively in order to keep the area safe.

Of course, this should only be his choice when faced with this problem. If he were to be in a real situation, would he really make up his mind to kill that person? I don’t think… necessarily.”

Lei Wujie looked at Xiao Se, but Xiao Se remained silent.

Wu Xin, who was standing by, asked, "Uncle Master, if it were you, what would you choose?"

"Killing one person can save tens of millions of people, which means there is a third party force. If it is me."

Chu Zhao paused, and said firmly: "I will choose to encourage those millions of people or that one person to rise up in resistance and kill them all. I will not choose one person or millions of people. I will only choose to kill the person who forced me to make a choice.

Although doing so may result in everyone dying, one must have backbone and even if one dies, one must die in resistance.

Besides, with so many people gathered together, we can probably win, right?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Among them, Xiao Se was the first to come to his senses and sighed, "No wonder you were able to restore the country back then."

Ji Ruofeng followed closely behind, sighed, and said with emotion: "You Xichu people have a wolf nature in your bones."

In fact, this question is also suitable for Chu Zhao.

If he had chosen to kill one person, that is, chosen to die himself, he could have saved tens of millions of Western Chu survivors.

However, Chu Zhao did not make this choice. Instead, he did as he said and led the remaining people of Western Chu to rise up in resistance.

Although Beili was not completely destroyed, he was forced to bow his head and his vitality was seriously damaged.

More importantly, for the current Chu State, the demise of Beili is only a matter of time.

This can be regarded as a response to Chu Zhao's words of killing all the opponents.

Thinking of this, he became more worried.

Chu Zhao smiled and said: "As the saying goes: A dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit, a wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat.

I think being a wolf is pretty good. It’s better than being a dog, right? "

Ji Ruofeng laughed: "Indeed, otherwise there would not be the Chu State today."

At the same time, Yue Yao on the side pulled Chu Zhao and said, "We are eating, can you please stop talking about shit?"

Chu Zhao nodded: "Well, let's eat. It's getting late now. Let's go to bed early after dinner."
