Chapter 126: Being behind means being beaten

Chapter 126

Gu Sang threw her finished meal box into the trash can, then turned to look at the ancient people with a serious and stern expression. She spoke resolutely:

"Human beings should look forward, but we must not forget our roots, our past humiliations. Without the dedication and efforts of our ancestors, where do the peace and prosperity we enjoy today come from?!"

"The retelling of these difficult stories by future generations is a constant reminder to the descendants. Remember history, learn from the past.”

"Falling behind means being bullied. Every descendant of China must keep this phrase in their hearts."

"History is bloody and indignant, but we should not evade these painful experiences. Instead, we should look at them correctly and change to make our country stronger, more prosperous, and enduring."

"As for the fear that children will be traumatized? You're overthinking. Children are more resilient than you think. They will remember that the prosperity they enjoy today was won by countless heroic grandfathers and grandmothers, their peace was bought with their bodies, and they will have faith in their hearts ..."

War films have always remained popular.

As a child, Gu Sang would often watch them on various TV stations, especially the older generation's favorite stories.

Gu Sang's grandmother also loved to watch them. But as a child, after watching a few episodes, she soon grew tired and didn't understand how her grandmother never grew tired of it.

It was not until she grew older and learned about the history that Gu Sang finally understood that it was not the TV they were watching, but the nostalgia, the feelings, the relief, the experience of life's changes.

"Many, many years ago, the small foreign countries dared to point at our people and call us the 'Sick Man of the East.'"

"But now..."

"We have proved to the world with our strength, what is the great China! "

Gu Sang's words reverberated among the ancient people.

They fell silent.

Although the ancients had not personally experienced such history, they could feel the misery of past wars and the helplessness of being backward from Gu Sang's tone.

But within a few decades...

They reversed the situation!

Our ancestors built a powerful China with their blood and sacrifices, with countless lives.

Pei Changying, with tightened lips, looked at Gu Sang on the screen. His voice hoarse and low, "The weak are prey to the strong? Gu Sang, are you hinting at me?"

"I already know I was wrong."

"Can you come back and continue to assist me? "

"As long as you come back, I am willing to rule the world with you, whether it's a school you mentioned, gender equality, life-long commitment, I'll listen to you! This time I will not lose my temper with you again, okay?"

Upon hearing these sincere words, even if unrequited....

Gu Sang's face was as grim as if she had eaten a housefly.

"Okay, everyone to your places!"

"Action!"

With those words hanging in the air, the ancient people guarding outside the livestream town all looked up nervously, staring intently at the shooting scene on the screen.

Here it comes!

It's starting!

The historic scene of the Goddess' shooting has arrived!

From the pupils of the ancient people, one can reflect the gloomy dungeon, where the half-dead Gu Sang is being dragged into a cell by enemies.

Bang!

Gu Sang's body was heavily thrown into the cell.

The prisoners in the cell quickly approached, turned Gu Sang over, and checked her breathing: "Good, the young lady is still alive."

"Come on, everyone help and move her over there."

A few people together moved Gu Sang to a straw mat by the bed, someone reached out to the outer water bucket and fed Gu Sang with water in hand.

The prisoners' hands and feet were all chained, making a sound when they walked.

Their faces, bodies, and clothes were all marked with whip marks, some people's facial injuries had scarred over, forming a twisted and extraordinarily ugly centipede shape on the face.

Gu Sang, now fully immersed in her character, opened her eyes and saw several female prisoners like herself looking at her with concern.

"Sister Liu, she’s awake."

Opening her mouth, Gu Sang’s mind is filled with the faces of the villagers who had died for her.

Her comrades, her classmates, her partners, those sincere loved ones, all were killed by the enemy!

"Why am I still alive?" Gu Sang, lost in her act, murmured in deep agony, tears flowing into her hair from the corners of her eyes.

Her heart felt as if it had been hollowed out.

Suddenly, she found no meaning to live.

Why wasn't she the one who died!

"Miss, don't give up. You need to stay strong, we must believe in the light."

"You see, our loved ones around us have also been killed by the enemy. I came for revenge, but I got caught before I could achieve it."

"Sister Liu suffered even more, her infant son who just learning to walk, such a little baby, was shockingly killed by the enemy."
