It had to be said that Xu Yang's words were very pleasing to Zhuge Wolong's ears. However, did he want Zhuge Wolong to leave the mountain just based on these words? It was impossible.
Shaking his head, Zhuge Wolong still refused to walk out of the prison to help Xu Yang. In Zhuge Wolong's opinion, the world was like this, and not everyone could turn the world around. He just wanted to learn, and that was all he knew.
Xu Yang didn't feel strange about Zhuge Wolong's refusal. It would be incredible if he agreed to it so easily. Xu Yang pondered for a moment and said to Zhuge Wolong,"Mr. Zhuge, you didn't come out to help me just for me.”
"I know. It's for the sake of the people of the world.”Before Xu Yang could finish his sentence, Zhuge Wolong spoke the second half of his sentence before him. No scholar was easy to fool.
"No, I'm not talking about the common people of the world, but the scholars of the world.”Xu Yang shook his head and replied,"Even if you don't care about the common people, you should at least give consideration to the scholars in the world, right?"”
"All the scholars in the world? What did this have to do with all the scholars in the world?”Zhuge Wolong asked curiously.
"How can it be unrelated?" Xu Yang looked at Zhuge Wolong seriously and said,""Your knowledge can be said to be second to none in the world. However, with your reputation, even if you want to write a book, you have to hide in this prison to be at peace. Let me ask you, who in the world can really write a book without worry?”
Seeing Zhuge Wolong's expression change, Xu Yang continued,""Even writing a book is so difficult, so there are naturally fewer and fewer people who are so knowledgeable. In a few decades, perhaps even scholars will be cut off from this world. As long as this chaotic world did not change, no one would be able to study in peace.”
Boom!
Xu Yang's words were like a bolt of lightning in Zhuge Wolong's ears.
If such a chaotic world did not end, he would not be able to study in peace. It was the same for others. If there were no more people to write books, would there be people to study in the future?
In this chaotic world, scholars were even more worthless. As time passed, scholars would disappear. It was not an alarmist talk.
With Zhuge Wolong's wisdom, he naturally knew this principle. It was just that he had never considered this aspect. Today, after Xu Yang's reminder, Zhuge Wolong naturally thought of this. Thinking that there might be no future for scholars in the future, Zhuge Wolong's heart was filled with a sense of urgency.
Looking at Zhuge Wolong's appearance, Xu Yang nodded in his heart. It seemed that he still had hope. As expected, for a scholar like Zhuge Wolong, perhaps he could ignore the common people in the world, but could he ignore the scholars in the world? At the very least, if there were no more scholars in the world, who would read the books he left behind for the future generations? Wouldn't they all be waste paper?
Zhuge Wolong's eyes were bright, completely different from the cloudy ones before. However, even a hermit like Zhuge Wolong had to consider it carefully. After a few minutes of silence, Zhuge Wolong said to Xu Yang,"You want me to assist you, but do you want to overthrow the Imperial Court?”
"No!" Xu Yang said firmly,""My goal is only to rectify the court, kill evil spirits, and eliminate treacherous officials. That's all. I've never dreamed of sitting on the throne.”
Yes, he was just a passerby in this plane. Even if he sat on the throne, what was the point? Besides, even if Xu Yang had the intention, it was still a problem whether he could succeed or not.
Looking at Xu Yang's expression, Zhuge Wolong could tell that Xu Yang did not look like he was talking. This kind of emotion could not help but make him respect him. He said,"Since that's the case, I'll agree to your request. I hope that you can really return the world to its former glory.”
