"I didn't mean that!"

Meng Xiaolang blushed and said, "I just thought, I just thought, wow, let me calm down. That is to say, if my grandfather invited Li Yao, this" supreme of the three worlds, legend of the Federation "might come to our house for dinner?"

"It's not possible. It's true. It's here, of course, not your father's magnificent mansion."

Meng Jiang said with a smile, "it's just that Li Yao has been in the hibernation barn for nearly a hundred years. According to his apparent age, he is nearly a hundred years younger than me. My white hair is more than enough to be his grandfather. It's very strange for us to get along with each other."

"Wow

Meng Xiaolang imagined Li Yao, a vulture, eating in the humble barber shop of his grandfather. He might squat in the place where he squats now. He gave up thinking and didn't know what to say. He just said, "Wow!"

"Why, don't you dislike our" federal legend "the most, clamoring all day to surpass him, ten times more powerful than him."

Mengjiang deliberately said, "how come today's attitude has turned 180 degrees?"

"That's because I thought Li Yao was the" invincible enemy "of my grandfather. That's why I wanted to avenge him. Otherwise, who would not like to see the hero of the federation or the symbol of our hometown for no reason?"

Meng Xiaolang was smiling at first. Suddenly he thought of something, and his eyebrows curled up again. He said nervously, "no, if Li Yao and his grandfather have no conflicts, and I don't need to help him revenge or find a place, does he still support me to go to Xinghai central?"

"This question, ask yourself, ask your heart, why do you want to join the army?"

Meng Jiang looked at Meng Xiaolang and said faintly, "is it for the sake of money, status, thrill, or herd mentality, that's why you want to go, or is it some kind of competitive mentality, that's why you want to go, because no one else can choose you?"

"This --"

Meng Xiaolang's face showed hesitation and fell into troubled thinking.

"In fact, you don't have to ask. My grandfather has been thinking about this problem for a long time. In the last half month, the publicity outside has become more and more lively. It seems that the Federation may fall into a new war. Even if you join the Liaoyuan fleet or other ordinary fleet instead of joining this mysterious new fleet, you are likely to be involved in the vortex of war."

Meng Jiang pondered, "although your father is embarrassed to come to see me, your mother has sent me several letters from Linghe, giving me a chance to advise you not to serve in dangerous troops - they know that you only listen to me.

"However, ha ha, your parents and you, including those people who are enthusiastic and depressed on the street outside, are all new generation federates. Your grandfather is an old man who came from the" old federation "in the Tianyuan era. The old and new generations of federates are different, too different. You will never understand our mentality, but each other's understanding of" war. ", It's a long way off.

"You new generation of Federalists have grown up in a safe, stable and prosperous environment since childhood. You have never understood what is precarious, what is instant destruction, and what is doomed. You have experienced a whole hundred years of peace. Even though the" space ring war "30 years ago and the recent" Federal defense war "have only swept through the starry sky, It's only limited to the federal army and the practitioners. It doesn't have much influence on the people living on the planet.

"So, when you" new Federalists "look at war, you often have unrealistic romance and exaggerated panic. It's too... Naive, just like children who can't control their emotions and do whatever they want.

"In a word, you don't have the pain of war. You don't know what it's like to burn a butcher's knife into the viscera.

"And in the old union a hundred years ago?

"It must be hard for you to imagine that at that time, we only had Tianyuan star, and there were wormholes connected with blood demon star everywhere. There was no difference between" front line "and" rear line ". Especially in the wilderness, the overwhelming tide of beasts would appear at any time, and every minute we would be in close contact with the ferocious enemy.

"In such an extremely harsh environment, we don't have the heart to care about the gain and loss of interests, the opportunity and cost of the expedition, the strength of the enemy and the negotiation conditions, just like the new Federalists today. All these things don't exist. No matter the practitioners, the soldiers or the civilians, they are just a word. Their heads are tied to their pants and belts!

"At that time, it was easier to die than an ant. There was no difference between the destruction of a city and the withering of a weed. Even our civilization, the Xingyao Federation, which had been struggling in blood and fire for 500 years, could perish at any time.

"In the face of all this, we don't have the time or energy to panic, to hesitate, to weigh. We just move forward numbly, to kill all the enemies in front, or to be killed by the enemy one day, to survive or to be destroyed, it's no big deal.

"The meaning of grandfather's saying this is to tell you that grandfather will never stop you from going to the battlefield because of your safety problems. We" old Federalists "have long been indifferent to it. Even the demise of the union was something we thought of countless times more than a hundred years ago. It's no big deal to live and die.

"But I still hope that you can think clearly, think calmly for a few days, listen to your innermost voice, and find your own answer. Why do you want to go to war, what kind of person do you want to be, and what kind of life do you want to live?"

"Grandfather..."

Meng Xiaolang was at a loss. He didn't expect that his grandfather suddenly became so serious and said such a thing.

"To tell you the truth, at your age, my grandfather was confused. He was a little influenced by the vulture Li Yao. When you have a high school friend like Li Yao, it's hard for you not to be agitated and influenced by him."

Meng Jiang grinned and said, "although I'm a little embarrassed, my grandfather still wants to tell you that at that time, my grandfather was very envious, even envious of him, envious of" vulture Li Yao. "

"This..."

Meng Xiaolang took a breath, thought about it, nodded and said, "well, if I were Li Yao's high school classmate, I'm afraid it's hard not to envy him."

"Jealousy belongs to jealousy, but our relationship is still very good, and I also know that my talent is limited, and I can't compete with him in the way of cultivation. Then I thought, I want to be outstanding in my career and better than anyone else." Federation "understood, you are grandfather's favorite grandson, and grandfather supports all your decisions, I just hope that you are not in a fever, or bewitched by media propaganda, or for ridiculous reasons such as "being a superhero ten times bigger than Li Yaoqiang". Instead, there is a voice in your heart that encourages you to fly to the center of the star sea every second. No matter you encounter any setbacks or even death threats, you will never give up.

"Everyone has his own way of life. If you hear such a voice, it proves that you have taken the right path. God will be ready for your unique adventure on this road, meet it bravely, and live a" 100% Meng Xiaolang ". Remember, you are you, you are Meng Xiaolang, not" the grandson of Li Yao's best friend. ", I don't want to be "1000% Li Yao". That's boring. I just want to see "100% Meng Xiaolang". Do you understand? "
