Chapter 1106 - 287: Inherited Smuggling, Ultimate Control
It was just a brief chat, but Mo Huitou already understood the situation of future generations.
A lot of things have been lost, not just rituals, but also the content related to Dadui's unique Sealing Technique.
Although his understanding of the Dadui Seal is not exceptional, it's certainly much more than this emperor knows.
But now, he is stumped by this rather unorthodox emperor.
Honestly, in his era, there were also people who wanted to take shortcuts.
With the marvels of the Dadui Seal, naturally, there would be research on it as well.
The so-called borrowing of the seal to steal the lifespan of the heavens inevitably comes at a greater cost, and it's true that only after trying it does one understand.
The taboo is like a wall built with piles of bones and flesh and blood, blocking the curious ones that follow.
It's not to stop them, but to prevent them from turning into those bricks and blood and flesh mortar.
Mo Huitou naturally knows that taboos will surely increase with the passage of time.
When there weren't so many taboos, people were actually more unrestrained and reckless.
However, in their era, such a situation like what Yu Ziqing described never occurred.
At least in this era, zombies couldn't even enter the city.
These ominous beings, born from death, filled with hatred and resentment, devouring the blood of living beings, and spreading corpse poison, may not even be considered living beings.
If they dared to approach the city, they would be crushed into ashes without any effort, serving as fertilizer for the flowers outside the city.
As for those of the Alien Clan, if they dared to reach out, dared to cross the boundary, cutting off their outstretched hands and overstepped feet was already very merciful.
Like this time, in the battle with those restless giants, they surprisingly captured a large number of giants, not killing them all directly.
Although Mo Huitou now knows that he was sealed because someone used this batch of giants to pull off something big.
But he also doesn't think that killing all these captives is a good thing.
He believes that these captives should be put to better use rather than all being killed.
Even keeping them as materials would be excellent.
If all the crucial giants of the giant tribe were killed, the giant tribe would be completely finished.
It may be impossible to find a strong bone for material in the future.
Unfortunately, many people cannot fully understand his perspective, only feeling it is too merciful and somewhat disdain him.
Mo Huitou dared not ask Yu Ziqing whether the giants would be exterminated in the future.
He believes they most likely will be destroyed, unable to withstand such a massive blow this time.
Mo Huitou thought a lot, looked at Yu Ziqing, and sighed softly.
"Your Majesty, do you have a golden book? Easy to carry."
External things are best to carry what he leaves behind.
Yu Ziqing rummaged through his collection and pulled out a blank golden book.
Mo Huitou pointed his finger at the golden book, and a large number of rune-written contents appeared on it.
Ordinary text couldn't bear it and might even cause misinterpretations.
Mo Huitou gave much about the rituals, and there were also some understandings of the Dadui Seal, as well as many restricted items, all clearly marked.
After handing the golden book to Yu Ziqing, Mo Huitou hesitated a bit and said,
"Your Majesty, if you meet others in the future, it's best to be more forceful.
The emperor's excessive kindness isn't necessarily a good thing."
"Hmm?" Yu Ziqing froze, almost laughing out loud. Him? Too kind?
My goodness, Yu Ziqing had never received such an evaluation before.
Previously, people saying he was a good person was the limit.
But seeing Mo Huitou looking somewhat worried, he understood that Mo Huitou had no reason to fool him about such matters.
Completely meaningless.
"Being able to have a pleasant conversation with me and agree with some of my ideas shows, Your Majesty, that you are a benevolent ruler, perhaps too much so."
Mo Huitou pointed to the giant prisoners suppressed and confined within the city walls.
"In this war, for them to survive without being slaughtered entirely, I played a big role.
Even though I just think that if all these giants are killed, there might never be slightly stronger giants emerging again.
Some of the top-grade materials produced by this batch of the strongest giants would completely disappear.
Yet still, too many people feel that I am too lenient towards the enemy.
I'm not too stubborn a person, but my attempts to explain and persuade were useless.
I can foresee that several of my rituals requiring such materials can't be performed to their maximum potential anymore."
Mo Huitou was somewhat helpless, trying to make Yu Ziqing understand.
Yu Ziqing's expression was somewhat odd; he could understand Mo Huitou's meaning.
He has seen everything; he has seen true Holy Mothers who would plead for their abusers after being tormented.
But he truly didn't expect that in this era, seeing those giants as walking materials, breeding giants with complete spiritual wisdom as if breeding livestock, all with a mind for sustainable acquisition of materials, nurturing top-tier materials without end, could still be called too lenient with the enemy.
Then those proper hawks, if they saw him, most likely wouldn't favor him much.
Yu Ziqing indeed should take note of this if he ever visits those Seals.
The Jiazi Era's seals are few in number, most of them extremely dangerous, and are disasters that even then and later couldn't be resolved.
