40,000 Years of Cultivation
Chapter 2894: 100% of life!
"That was not what I meant!"
Meng Xiaolang said blushingly, "I just thought, I just thought, wow, let me calm down. That is to say, if grandpa invites Li Yao, this'Three Realms Supreme, Federation Legend' is really possible to come to our house for dinner. Huh?"
"It's not'possible', it's really been here, of course it's here, not your dad's magnificent mansion."
Meng Jiang smiled and said, "It's just that Li Yao has been in the hibernation barn for nearly a hundred years. On the basis of his apparent age, he is nearly a hundred years younger than me. I look like a gray-haired grandfather. It's more than enough, everyone gets along, it's a little... weird."
"Wow!"
Meng Xiaolang imagined the vulture Li Yao eating in his grandfather’s humble barbershop. He might just squat where he is now. He gave up thinking and didn’t know what to say. He just kept going. ,"Wow!"
"Why, aren't you the one who doesn't like us the ‘Federation Legend’ the most, arguing all day long and surpassing him, ten times more powerful than him."
Meng Jiang deliberately said, "Why is your attitude turning a hundred and eighty degrees today?"
"That's because I thought Li Yao was an'enemy that can never be defeated' by Grandpa, so I wanted to avenge Grandpa. Otherwise, who would not be used to the heroes of the Federation for no reason, or a symbol of our hometown! "
Meng Xiaolang opened his eyebrows and smiled, suddenly thinking of something, his eyebrows curled up again, and he said nervously, "Oops, if Li Yao and grandpa have no conflicts, and I don't need me to avenge grandpa or find some place, then grandpa still supports Am I going to the center of Xinghai?"
"This question, you have to ask yourself, ask your heart, why on earth you want to join the army to fight?"
Meng Jiang looked at Meng Xiaolang, and said lightly, "Is it for money status, thrills, or herd mentality, everyone else will go, so you have to go, or a certain competitive mentality, others can’t choose, but you It's chosen, so you are going?"
"This--"
Meng Xiaolang showed hesitation on his face and fell into distressed thinking.
"Actually, you don’t need to ask. Grandpa has been thinking about this issue for a long time. In the past half month, the publicity outside has become more and more lively. It seems that the Federation may be caught in a new war. The new fleet, but joining the Liaoyuan fleet or other ordinary fleets, are very likely to be involved in the vortex of war."
Meng Jiang groaned, "Although your dad is embarrassed to come to see me, your mother has sent me several books of the Spirit Crane, giving me the opportunity to persuade you not to serve in dangerous troops-they know , You only listen to me.
"But, haha, your parents and you, including those on the streets outside who are suddenly passionate and downcast. You are all a new generation of Federation members, but your grandfather is an immortal from the'old federation' of the Tianyuan era, old and new. The two generations of the Federation are not the same, too different, our mentality, you will never understand, and each other's understanding of "war" is also very different.
"Your new generation of Federation members have grown up in a safe, stable and prosperous environment since they were young. They have never experienced what it means to be precarious, what it means to be destroyed in an instant, and what it means to be doomed. You have experienced a whole hundred years of peace, even if three Ten years ago, in the "Sky Ring War" and the recent "Federal Defense War", the flames of war were only swept in the starry sky, only confined to the Federation Army and practitioners. It was not too big for the people living on the planet. influences.
"Therefore, you'new federations' tend to have unrealistic romance and exaggerated panic when viewing war. It's too... naive, like children who can't control their emotions and do whatever they want.
"In a word, you don't have the skin pain of war, and you don't know what it's like to pierce the internal organs with a burning butcher knife.
"And what about the old federation a hundred years ago?
"It must be hard for you to imagine that at that time we only had the planet Tianyuanxing, and there were wormholes connected to the blood demon star everywhere. There was no difference between'frontline' and'rear', especially above the Great Wilderness. , An overwhelming tide of beasts will appear at any time, and will be in hand-to-hand combat with vicious enemies every minute.
"In such an extremely harsh environment, we have no intention of worrying about the benefits and losses, the timing and cost of the expedition, the strength of the enemy and the conditions for negotiation... these things do not exist like today's new federal people. Yes, no matter if you are a cultivator, a soldier or a civilian, it's just one word, tie your head to your trousers belt and do it!
"At that time, it was easier to die a person than to die an ant. The destruction of a city was no different from the withering of a weed. Even our civilization has been struggling with blood and flames for five hundred years. The Xingyao Federation may also perish at any time.
"Faced with all this, we don’t have the time or energy to panic, hesitate, and weigh. We just go forward numbly and kill all enemies that stand in front of us, or one day, we will be killed by the enemy, survive or destroy. no big deal.
"Grandpa said this to tell you that Grandpa will never stop you from going to the battlefield because of your safety issues-life and death, we "old federal people" have long been taken lightly, even the collapse of the Federation is more than a hundred years old. The things we have thought of countless times before, it is still the same sentence, it is no big deal to live and die.
"But I still hope that you can think clearly, think extremely calmly for a few days, listen to the deepest voice in your heart, and find your own answer, why do you want to be on the battlefield, and what do you want to be? People, what kind of life do you want to live?"
"grandfather……"
Meng Xiaolang was at a loss. He didn't expect his grandfather to suddenly become so serious and say such a thing.
"Let’s tell you that at your age, grandpa was once confused, and speaking of it, he was a little influenced by'Vulture Li Yao'-when you have a high school buddy like Li Yao, your heart It’s hard not to commotion, it’s hard not to be influenced by him."
Meng Jiang grinned and said, "Although he is a little embarrassed, grandpa still wants to tell you that at that time, grandpa was very envious, even jealous of him, jealous of'Vulture Li Yao'."
"This one……"
Meng Xiaolang took a breath, thought about it, and nodded, "Well, if I were Li Yao's high school classmate, I'm afraid it would be hard not to be jealous of him."
"Jealousy belongs to jealousy, but our relationship is still very good, and I also know that my talents are limited and it is impossible to compete with him in the way of cultivation. Then I thought, I want to excel in my own career. Anyone is strong,'Federation First', so that you can stand tall in front of him."
Meng Jiang took another sip of wine, let the hot taste turn around his throat, and said in a low voice, "What happened later, you probably all know. With my hard work day and night, my career is getting better and better. Big, the brand of "Inspur" has expanded to the entire federation, even across several large worlds, and even the most remote resource planet has our franchise stores. I am getting closer and closer to my goal, but I have neglected my family and my wife. The distance between children is getting farther and farther.
"In those few years, my relationship with your grandma and your dad was very stiff. In fact, your dad will become what it is today. It is hard to say that he was not influenced by my early years. And I still cling to it, and I just want to The vows made by the buddies have completely fallen into the horns.
"It wasn't until the serious illness that your grandma gave birth to the ghost gate closed for a whole year that I woke up like a dream and repented.
"What is the most important thing in my life? Is it just a promise to the old buddies, rather than the people around me? Is it more important to hold your head in front of the buddies than the happiness of a family? Li Yao is not that kind of person at all. I don’t care how big my career is, whether it’s the "Federal No. 1 Image Design Master". We are always buddies! I, I’m not competing with Li Yao at all, but I was competing with myself, with my own demons, with my vanity, low self-esteem, and jealousy. As a result, I almost lost my wife and children!
"From that day on, I realized it thoroughly.
"How Li Yao lived his life has nothing to do with me. The first label in my life is'Meng Jiang', not'Li Yao's best friend.' Li Yao has his adventures, and I also have my adventures. My adventure is to meet your grandma, and have your aunt and your dad...dog stuff, and of course your sister and you.
"Compared with the adventure God gave to Li Yao, I think the adventure God gave me is more precious. I already have my own adventure. Why bother to compare with Li Yao?
"Aware of this, I opened a new chapter in my life. After that, although my career did not hit another peak, I can say very proudly that I spent the next day honestly and happily. I live up to the adventure God gave me. I cherish my family and enjoy the happy life now. I have lived my true self. I have achieved a '100% Mengjiang', just like Li Yao has lived a '100% Li Yao' same.
"Understood, you are grandpa's most beloved grandson. Grandpa supports all your decisions. I only hope that you are not hot-headed, or deceived by media propaganda, or in order to'become a super power ten times stronger than Li Yao. A ridiculous reason such as "hero", but there is a voice deep in your heart that encourages you to fly to the center of the star sea every second. No matter what setbacks or even death threats you encounter, you will never give up.
"Everyone has their own path in life. If you hear such a voice, it proves that you are on the right path. God will prepare your own adventure on this path and bravely welcome it. And live as a '100% Meng Xiaolang', remember, you are you, you are Meng Xiaolang, not'the grandson of Li Yao's best buddies', let alone living as '1000% Li Yao', then It's boring, I just want to see '100% Meng Xiaolang', understand?"
