MTL - Aztec Eternals-Chapter 14 conversation

"You mean, the sun is a big fireball, and the earth under our feet is a big earth ball. The big earth ball is spinning around the big fireball day and night?!" Avit Soter looked at Shilot in shock.

"Yes, yes. Avette, you are so smart, you will understand after I say it once." Sherlot patted Avette Sotel on the shoulder excitedly. "The earth ball under our feet is also spinning by itself. Because it revolves around the sun, we have four seasons. It is because of the rotation of the earth ball that we have day and night!"

Avette Sotel looked at Shiroutte's face seriously, only seeing the sincerity on his face and the excitement of meeting a bosom friend, so he fell silent. Even with his ability, he couldn't tell whether Shulot was really stupid or pretended to be crazy.

"You are indeed different from ordinary people." Avette could only say at last.

"My grandfather said the same," said Sherlot. In the past few days, he has eliminated the initial grievances and regarded Avit as his close friend. Avit is very concerned about his life, food, clothing, housing and transportation, in every possible way. At the same time always smile sincerely and chat with yourself. No one has ever been so patient, listening to oneself talk about the science of past lives and explaining things in nature.

I once mentioned another kind of cognition of the world with my grandfather and father. As a result, my father sneered at these, while my grandfather was delighted that he was different from ordinary people, and neither cared about what he said.

The boy's body greatly affected his emotions, making him a little impulsive, he couldn't help but say something hidden in his heart, to release the constant pressure from this era, which was seriously different from his three views.

"When I was very young, I had another kind of memory, or some visions, in my mind." Sherlot thought about his words.

"What kind of memory?" Avette was refreshed and asked with a more sincere smile.

"In that memory, there shouldn't be so much bloodshed and killing in the world." Sherlot thought with some nostalgia. "Life is precious. Everyone's life should be protected and should not be deprived so easily. The deprivation is sudden and deserved."

Ever since he came to this era and saw blood that he had never seen in his entire life, Shirault always felt a strong sense of insecurity. Even though he was born into a noble family, he still could not guarantee the long-term security of his life.

In this era, the passing of life is too arbitrary. In fact, he has brushed past death several times. The fear of not knowing when the Western colonists will arrive is also buried deep in his heart and cannot be told.

"In fact, everyone is equal. From a biological point of view, everyone has similar genetic factors, one nose and two eyes. No race, ethnic group, or family is born better than others. More noble. So, everyone should also respect the rights of others.”

In this era, another thing that made Shilot difficult to accept is the strict hierarchical order. Theocracy is supreme and rules society. The kingship suppressed the nobles, the nobles manipulated the samurai, and the samurai decided the life and death of the commoners.

In the past 20 years, he was used to getting along like a friend, and everyone has enough ego. He is not ready to decide everything about others, and he does not want to be decided by others. This time, facing the king, even more so.

The contradictions of these thoughts clashed in his boy's body, and everyone around him was instilling in him another value concept, a ideological and cognitive system that was more "adapted" to this era.

Fusion means mutual compromise, the world, or himself, and it's not something that can be done in a day.

So he would go offline from time to time and make impulsive or "childish" actions. For example, the pity for the girl when the prisoner was captured, such as the dismantling of the grandfather's costume, and the "dangerous" conversation this time.

Avit remained silent, he no longer needed to struggle with the proposition of whether Shulot was really stupid or fake. However, Xiulote's words still caused some ripples in his cold and cruel heart. Facing such a "simple" young man, he finally confided some cold thoughts.

"The world was originally cold and cruel. Lions eat deer, deer eat grass, they die if they don't eat, they are eaten when they die. Priests, nobles, warriors, commoners, slaves. City people, gentiles, savages. City and jungle again What's the difference?"

"Sunlight is limited. If you don't pull out the weeds, corn will not grow. Look at the rainforest. The higher you stand, the more sunlight and the longer the life. Pine trees live for a hundred years, reeds live for ten years, and mushrooms live for one season. What's the same? Not even death."

After speaking, Avit's words had some ups and downs, "The so-called life, the so-called equality you talk about, is just an appendix of power. As long as you are strong enough, you can be free. Until you reach the highest point, it is absolute freedom. "

Saying that, he subconsciously glanced at Cheng Yu in front of him, and the majestic king on Cheng Yu, and whispered to himself, "And I, too, are the blood of the gods!" He woke up randomly, and stopped to look at Xiulote.

Seeing that Shulot was still in a trance, Avit was slightly relieved, changed his smile, patted Shulot on the shoulder, and said with a gentle smile: "Although I don't know what the memories you are talking about are. , but I can hear the contradiction and confusion in your heart. Whether you are a samurai or a noble, too much thinking is meaningless." After speaking, he looked at Shurot's Tengu suit again. "As a priest, you still have to pay more attention to divinity. For the royal family, divinity is human nature. If you understand divinity, you will not lose your life in vain."

Randomly, Avit smiled again: "No, I said wrong. You are very good, very good! I will pass on your knowledge of the sun and the earth to the king."

"This way you can save your life and the so-called equality..." Avette laughed. Of course, there was no way for Shulot to know these unspoken words.

The breezy and drizzly May is the tenderness of summer. The warm wind brings the freshness of water vapor, and the rainy season has come quietly.

After Teotihuacan's Legion joined the Army. The army marched all the way north, turning northeast first, deterring the northern frontier bordering Tlaxcala and the Empire. King Tisok met with representatives of the city-states of Atotonilco, and continued to show off their force while arranging the defense of Tlaxcala.

At the suggestion of the "Snake" officer corps, the king left two direct legions here to strengthen the defense, and monitor Tlaxcala and the city-states by the way.

Then the army continued north for a few days, arriving at the city of Metztitlan, where Schlott once passed. Here King Tisok met with representatives of the Vastecs and accepted yet another tribute. Then it turned to the southwest and received two more city-state legions from Weiphetland, restoring the scale of twenty legions.

In the end, the army went straight to the west and went straight to the nearest large city-state of the Otomi people, the city of Hilotepec, which was only two weeks away from the three cities of the capital. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

Soon, twenty legions surrounded Hilotepec, cutting off the city-state's supply of grain, salt, and some water. The city is only four or five square kilometers. Eight core legions were camped in the east of the city, with about 10,000 senior warriors, 20,000 capital warriors, and more than 30,000 village warriors. They were stationed by the tributary of the Tempon River, which was the most convenient food route. This was a direct military force loyal to the king.

The remaining twelve city-state legions were evenly distributed in the west, south, and north, with more than 30,000 people on each side. About 40% were city-state warriors, and 60% were village warriors. Husok led the Teotihuacan city-state army to the west side where it was most likely to encounter reinforcements from the Otomi people.

Father and son are separated from each other and look at each other from a distance. Since the Holy City parted, they have never seen each other again. Shulot often looked to the west, but only one evening, he saw more than 8,000 warriors directly under the city-state quietly disappearing into the forest outside the camp.

The food and forage in the capital can go north along Lake Texcoco, cross Lake Hartokan, enter the main stream of Tempon River north, turn west again, and follow the tributary of Tempon River all the way to the camp on the shore. A canoe full of food can travel the entire journey in just over half a month.

The morale of Tisok's army is high, and there is no fear of food shortage. Avit told Shilot that according to the latest scout information, there were only 8,000 city-state soldiers, more than 10,000 village conscripts, and tens of thousands of civilians in Hilotepec. Morale was low, and people panicked.

If the two sides fought head-on, the 8,000 senior warriors could easily drive them into the Tempon River just like driving a pack of monkeys with a single charge.

And now, Shulot is standing outside the east gate. What appeared in his sight was a city wall four or five meters high, built of earth and stone, and full of defenders. On the narrow city wall, the slings, spears, simple bows and arrows of the warriors, piled stones and wood blocks are clearly visible at a glance.
