doomsday survival

Chapter 234 Final Choice
Shi Jian's voice stopped for a long time, but the loud words seemed to be still lingering in everyone's ears, lingering for a long time.

Looking at the silent crowd, Shi Jian said again: "That's all I want to say. As for how to make a decision, it's up to everyone here. Whether to give up knowledge for the sake of safety now, or to give up knowledge for the sake of future generations If it is widely applied, the decision is in your hands." After finishing speaking, Shi Jian bowed slightly and sat down without saying a word.

In fact, Shi Jian used a method of secretly changing concepts here, secretly integrating knowledge with what he taught.This is a common technique in modern debates, but in the last days, no one knew it, and it successfully blinded everyone present.

Except for Feng Kuang, no one else turned this corner, just followed Shi Jian's words, stretched forward, and thought about it bit by bit.

The more they thought about it, the more horrified they felt, as if they had seen their offspring starving and naked, living a life like savages, worrying about what to eat for their next meal every day, and talking about them was full of mouths Complaints, without a little bit of admiration.

The faces of the elders began to change little by little, with worry and panic in their eyes.

Since ancient times, the people of the Celestial Dynasty have always thought about future generations. In their eyes, the happiness of their children and grandchildren is more important than their own happiness.This kind of thinking has long been deeply implanted in the depths of their souls. As long as they can have a stable environment, the first thing they think of is their descendants.

Of course, at the beginning of the end of the world, in the chaotic world, people are precarious, and they can't even take care of themselves.If it was said at that time that everyone still thought about their descendants, it would only be a dream. The phenomenon of changing children and eating them exists at any time.

However, the life of the current Chang'an tribe has long since stabilized, and the concept of caring for their children and grandchildren once again occupies a dominant position.

After Xia Qianhe heard the words, he remained silent. After a while, he said to others: "What do you think of Shi Jian's words?"

Hearing what Xia Qianhe said, Wang Lie's heart trembled.He knew that Xia Qianhe was actually a very assertive person, even before asking other people, he usually expressed his general opinion.

But now, Xia Qianhe is obviously not sure about himself, or in other words, he has already leaned towards Shi Jian's side, otherwise he would never avoid talking about what he said before.

Wang Lie can figure it out, but Liu Yi, who is well versed in Xia Qianhe, can certainly figure it out even more.Hearing Xia Qianhe's question, he sighed softly, and said, "I have to say, Principal Shi is far-sighted. He really thinks much farther. He has already thought about the problems of our children and grandchildren."

If he just said that, others would definitely take it as a mockery, and it also showed Liu Yi's tendency.However, he paused for a moment and continued: "After hearing these words, I am ashamed. I am not as good as Principal Shi."

As soon as these words came to an end, it meant that Liu Yi had completely sided with Shi Jian.

After listening to Liu Yi's words, Li Hui struggled in his mind for a while, and finally decided to put aside the entanglement between Shi Jian and his daughter and focus on the interests of the tribe.

After thinking about this point, he finally said: "Shi Jian's statement is very similar to my grandfather's point of view, and I agree."

After Li Hui said this, Wang An then agreed.But his words were much sharper.

"Don't talk about those useless things. If Shi Jian is asked to stop teaching in the future, then you will become sinners of the tribe sooner or later. At that time, I will see which one of you has the face to stay on the monument, and still occupy a high position." Wang Anbian As he spoke, he pointed at other people, especially Wang Lie, who stayed the longest.

The situation became clear all of a sudden, Shi Jian's side already had four votes in support, even if Xia Qianhe and He Feng were both on Wang Lie's side, it would still be a four-to-four tie.

If this really happened, then Shi Jian could push this matter to the tribal assembly for a referendum.This was specifically requested by Shi Jian when the two parts were merged into one, and it was unanimously approved by everyone.

What will happen at the tribal meeting is beyond Shi Jian and Wang Lie's control.No one knows how much chance they will win under the secret ballot, even Wang Lie, who has been the leader for many years, is not sure.

"We must not bring this matter to the tribal meeting." Xia Qianhe thought to himself.

His considerations are different from others. If this matter is moved to the tribal assembly, then it is not a good thing to disclose the contradictions in the assembly hall to everyone. At least it shows that the current leadership has Discord is really not a good thing for the unity of the people of the tribe.

"If more than 200 people were divided into two factions, would it be okay?" Xia Qianhe asked himself.But no matter which direction he considered, he couldn't find a definite answer.

Coughing lightly, Xia Qianhe said: "Shi Jian's words are indeed reasonable, but Wang Lie's thinking is not a big problem, it's just that everyone stands at different angles, and the depth of vision is also different."

When Shi Jian heard his words, he couldn't help laughing again. If he didn't guess wrong, Xia Qianhe came out to meet Si Ni again.

"No matter how you say it, they are all for the good of the tribe. One is for the immediate safety, and the other is for future descendants. Everyone knows which is more important. However," Xia Qianhe paused, and continued, " For me, who is buried up to my neck in loess, I should think more about my descendants."

Wang Lie's face turned pale when he heard this, and he has completely lost so far.He couldn't figure out why Xia Qianhe said that he was doing it for the safety of the present, while Shi Jian was doing it for the sake of his children and grandchildren.

"Didn't I think about my descendants? Could it be that letting them have that kind of risky thinking is the way to survive in the last days?" Wang Lie immediately called out dissatisfied.

"You also think about them, but you always want to create a protective umbrella for them, let them grow up under your wings, but don't give them a little space to fly. If things go on like this, they will not adapt to the end of the world and will eventually be abandoned by nature. Eliminate!" Shi Jian said seriously, looking directly at Wang Lie.

Every word is like a knife piercing straight into Wang Lie's heart, making him extremely uncomfortable.Reminiscent of what Xia Qianhe said before, Wang Lie felt that everyone's eyes on him changed, as if they were mocking him for his short-sightedness.

"Okay, I'm short-sighted," Wang Lie gritted his teeth and said, "Since everyone thinks so, then I have nothing to say. I hope your thoughts will not bring disaster to the tribe!" The others slammed the door and walked out as they spoke.

Seeing Wang Lie go out, Yi Ziqiang also stood up without saying a word, and followed him out.

None of the people present thought that Wang Lie would make such a move. This was too inconsistent with his usual cheerful personality, and they felt very embarrassed for a while.

"It's okay, he just didn't think about it for a while, I'll talk to him in a while, and he will be fine soon." Xia Qianhe broke the dull atmosphere.

"Then, I will trouble the Great Elder. I was a little too straightforward when I spoke just now. I will go and apologize to Mr. Wang when his anger subsides." Shi Jian said to Xia Qianhe sincerely.

"Well, don't worry, Wang Lie is also straight-tempered, and he can't change his mind for a while." Xia Qianhe explained for Wang Lie.

Not mentioning the people in the great hall, just saying that Yi Ziqiang caught up with Wang Lie and said to him: "Brother-in-law, I really didn't expect that this kid would fool everyone with a few words."

Wang Lie said with a livid face: "Quan Te is a fallacy!"

"Yes, yes, yes, it wasn't their child who almost had an accident today, otherwise, they would have spoken worse than us." Yi Ziqiang echoed.

Speaking of what happened today, the two of them were afraid for a while.If it weren't for those children who didn't know what saltpeter was, and only got charcoal and sulfur, they might have really gotten gunpowder out.

But even so, the faces of the four children were blackened by the smoke, and everyone felt distressed by their small appearance.His own child almost had an accident, and everyone was impatient to put it on anyone's body, so Yi Ziqiang's attitude towards Shi Jian was naturally not much better today.

Otherwise, with Yi Hengge at his side, he wouldn't be so resolutely standing with Wang Lie today.

But Wang Lie and Yi Ziqiang had different ideas. He always believed that Shi Jian's actions would bring disaster to the tribe, and he even spared no effort to suppress Shi Jian.After the children came up with this incident, this feeling became more and more intense in Wang Lie's heart, and finally made him decide to attack at the elders' meeting in order to completely eliminate Shi Jian's hidden danger.

But today's things did not go as he wished. Under Shi Jian's impassioned self-defense, everyone including Xia Qianhe was persuaded by him, but he got a short-sighted comment, how could he willingly.

"This Shi Jian will be a disaster sooner or later!" Wang Lie said in a low voice.

"Brother-in-law, what should we do now? Do you want him to continue misleading his son?" Yi Ziqiang asked.

Wang Lie looked up at the sky, looked at the floating white clouds, and said slowly: "Since it has been settled, then we have to do this first. However, I must not let him do anything else."

Yi Ziqiang said: "Yeah, you can't let him talk nonsense all day long, if it's really not possible, find a chance to teach him a lesson."

"Don't talk nonsense! We're all on our own now, so if you don't teach him a lesson, let him change his thinking." Wang Lie said lightly.

"Hehe, I'm talking nonsense," Yi Ziqiang laughed dryly, and continued to ask, "What is the eldest brother-in-law going to do next?"

"Let's talk about it later, I have my own measure." Wang Lie said casually.
