Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 8 Sand Man? Sound Man!
The Sand Man's Stand was beaten so hard he couldn't fight back. He quickly released the Stand and knelt on the ground. He threw the dagger in his hand at Lu Chen. The Stand punched the dagger away. Then he punched the Sound Man again, knocking him to the ground.

Lu Chen did not kill the sound man, so the damage caused by the stand-in's punch was not serious.

Then he walked to Yinren and deliberately asked: "Your name is Sandan, right? Shouldn't you be participating in the SBR competition? Why did you come here to attack me? Who ordered you to do it?" Of course Lu Chen knew all these questions.

The Indian boy lying on the ground said viciously, "Sand Man is just a derogatory name given to me by those white bandits. My real name is Sound Man. The One who plays sounds! You, an Oriental, will never understand me."

Lu Chen immediately retorted, "You hate white people, yet you know full well that I'm from the East. You harbor hatred for white people, yet you vent your violence on me. So, how is your hatred for me any different from that of those bandits you're talking about?"

"I'm just here to complete the mission. I don't hold any grudge against you. Go ahead. I won't tell you anything. Don't even think about learning anything from me."

Lu Chen squatted down and stared into Yinren's eyes and asked, "President Valentine asked you to come, right?"

Yinren was not panicked by this. The grudges and hatreds between other people had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to make money to buy back his land.

If you come to kill others, you must be prepared to be killed. Since you have lost, you must be prepared to give up your life. He is not afraid of death. He only feels regret for his sister and hopes that she can be happy in the future.

Seeing that Yinren didn't answer, Lu Chen asked again: "Do you know what the President asked you to seize?"

"Some of the remains, I don't know whose they belong to. He also told me that your ability should be related to defense. It seems that this is not the case." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the tone of Yin Ren.

"You think he cheated on you?"

"."

Yinren felt that the possibility of him being deceived was not very high. After all, the president should also hope that he could successfully bring back the body.

"I wonder what the President has promised you?"

"If I help him get his body back, I can get enough money to buy back our land."

"Give up this dream. No one will go forward with you in the direction you are going now. And never believe that you can buy back your tribal land with money. The white people are waging a war against you. You will never achieve your goal through trade alone. Your very existence is a sin against them."

Lu Chen gave him advice, this was a dream doomed to fail.

The man fell silent again. He had previously tried to imitate the white man's ways, but today this Oriental man told him that all that was wrong. Especially since what he said seemed to make sense.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Chen continued to ask: "Perhaps you should go back and visit your tribe?"

"Aren't you going to kill me?" Yinren was a little surprised. In his worldview, it was normal for the loser to die.

Lu Chen did not answer directly but asked, "Let me ask you a question. How long do you think your tribe can survive?"

"Though our lives are a little difficult, we can still hold on. So we should be able to hold out for a long time." Yin Ren was optimistic. "Then let me tell you, they won't survive more than half a year before being wiped out." Lu Chen glanced at Yin Ren's increasingly unsightly face and continued.

"And guess who would do it? Someone would impose civilization on you. And call it Manifest Destiny."

The Yinren roared, "This is impossible! Nothing will happen to my tribe!"

"You actually believe it, right? If you go back now, you can at least save your sister. With your newfound power, you and your sister can definitely survive. Anyway, I don't see how important the rest of the tribesmen are to you. They wanted to punish you before." Lu Chen's voice was like a poisonous snake tempting Eve.

"How do you know all this?" Yinren was obviously getting panicked. It was impossible for this person to know so much about him. It was as if he was watching everything.

"Think carefully about your sister. She believed in you so much. Even though she knew it was impossible, she still gave you the ancestral gem. Perhaps she hoped you could leave that place where you were doomed to die?"

Yinren's tone became very excited: "What do you know? Why do you know all this?" It can be seen that he has begun to collapse. Sure enough, his sister is his weak spot.

"Now you understand what we're fighting for. All of this was told to me by God, of course. Your tribe is about to be destroyed. If you die here, then in a month everything you value will be gone, including your sister. She will die with the happiness of your victory, unaware that you've already perished in the wilderness."

Lu Chen was like a charlatan, talking to himself with a pious look in his eyes. Anyway, the musicians now had no power to resist.

Yin Ren, on the other hand, calmed down. Although this Oriental man was talking nonsense, he must have his own needs if he didn't kill him. His life itself was valuable to him.

"Why are you willing to let me go?" Since he needs me to live, then he certainly won't mind if I offend him. And he will definitely be willing to answer my question.

"Although you are not my friend, there is someone who will definitely become your enemy. And that person happens to be my enemy."

"I won't help you deal with the president. The entire country is behind him." Yinren supported himself with his hands and answered.

"Once you have nothing, you won't be afraid of possible retaliation."

Yinren frowned and asked, "Whose body are you stealing? What kind of power does he have?" He felt that if the god he was talking about really had divine power, then the body would definitely be able to save his people.

Lu Chen didn't answer his question but continued, "Let's go, while there's still a chance. Go save your sister. Then go find the President and ask for clarification. I hope you can survive until then."

"What if I keep following you?"

"Then you will lose your sister. Every moment from now on is precious. I hope you can rush back when your tribe is destroyed, instead of a day or an hour later." Lu Chen ignored the revenge in Yinren's words.

Seeing that Lu Chen was really unwilling to answer his questions, Yin Ren stood up while enduring the pain in his body, and then started running towards his hometown.

Before leaving, he left a message: "If what you said is true, I will find a way to repay your kindness later."
