Chapter 912 Parasitic Beans
A group of people came out of nowhere, and asked Xincheng to join them out of nowhere. Then they fought a round out of nowhere, and ended up with nearly 500 more prisoners.
Chen Fang and Wu Mei led a hundred cavalrymen, and used the carts summoned from Xincheng to escort the captives back to Xincheng as if they were transporting goods.
Chen Fang drove the four girls on three trampolines, looked at the charred and comatose Jiangcheng soldiers on the cart, and asked:
"What are we going to do with these captives?"
Jimo thought for a while and said, "There is a shortage of manpower in many places in the new city. We can send these people there."
Mei Mei agrees with Jimo's opinion, but before dispatching them, she thinks that these captives should help dig out a moat first.
"Moat? Such a few people are not enough." Chen Fang said.
A moat surrounding the whole city is a big project, with a range of at least tens of kilometers and only 500 captives, it will take until the year of the monkey.
"It's okay, let my brothers go too when the time comes, they are awakened earth elements, they are good at digging, and there should be some awakened earth elements among these captives, the speed will not be slow."
Wenren suggested to cheat his eight older brothers.
"However, there is still a problem. These captives have been injured by me now, but to make them work, at least treatment can restore them to a certain degree of mobility."
"But the problem is that these are all middle-level awakened people. Once they recover a little, they will have the power to fight again. How do we take care of them here, and how can we make them dig the moat obediently?"
Chen Fang pointed out the next problems for the five hundred captives.
Charming and Jimo looked at each other and smiled.
"This is not a problem. We have ways and means to make them obedient."
any solution?
Chen Fang was puzzled.
"Yao Ya recently developed a miniature plant bomb that can help us control these people." Mei Mei smiled.
Chen Fang looked at Ya Ya, who was sitting beside him playing with the two little ones, and asked curiously, "What bomb?"
Seeing his uncle asking himself, Yaya took out a plant bomb the size of a mung bean, and then introduced it.
The parasitic pop bean is the seed of a wild bean plant that sprouts. It was originally intended to be used for oil extraction and relieve the shortage of cooking oil in the new city, but it was mutated into a new type of plant that can kill people.
It can only survive for one generation, and it can produce a hundred beans with good explosive power and one female bean at a time. After eating the beans, it will attach to the stomach and intestines, and in the form of parasitism, absorb the nutrients after the host digests the food. nutrient.
"Destroy the control of the mother bean or the sprouts, and the one hundred parasitic popping beans produced by the same plant will explode immediately. If the explosive power is placed outside, it may not cause much damage to the middle-level awakened person, but if it is detonated from the stomach, I think even a high-level awakened person can't resist it, and it's over."
Charming also took out a small bag of popping beans from her bosom, which looked bulging, there should be no less than a thousand grains.
"We can give the captives these beans to eat, and they won't dare to be disobedient." Mei Mei said lightly.
"I'm going, this thing is simply a weapon to control people, it seems very evil to do so."
Chen Fang heard about the purpose of parasitic popping beans, and thought of the novels he had read before. Among the cult villains, there are similar methods to force their subordinates to be "loyal", such as the pills of the Dragon Sect, and the life-and-death talisman of Tianshan Child Elder.
"What is evil is not evil, what is good or bad depends on the person who uses it and where it is used. You don't understand this truth." Wenren said contemptuously, circling Chen Fang's head.
Chen Fang naturally understands what people said. Just like the gunpowder invented by Blue Star, it is a good thing when it is used for people's livelihood, and it is a bad thing when it is used for aggression. When seeing anything with "forced control" behavior, they will think in a bad way, so once such an item appears in front of them, it is inevitable that it is a "bad" thing.
But to be more honest, it is also a controversial issue that there is no distinction between good and bad things, because when a thing is invented, it will always have a bias, that is, its purpose, such as a sword. Its biggest function is to kill and slash people.
And this kind of bias is "evil" in a broad sense, because it hurts people, and at the same time it is a medium that stimulates "evil thoughts" in human nature.
When a person does not have a weapon, at most he is curious, but once he has a weapon in his hand, does an idea pop up in his mind to try, no matter what the object of this "try" idea is, it will produce a result, that is, "destruction" ".
In short, whether things are good or bad, whether they are influenced by people's hearts, or whether they are different in nature, the debate lies in whether when people use things, they induce "evil in their hearts" when they recognize the use of the used things; It was invented by people with thoughts. When using it, the user's thoughts are the key.
I agree with the former who uses things to attract people's hearts, and the order of development of things as the basis, saying that I know it, think of it, and use it; My thoughts have nothing to do with it.
Knowing about the controversy, Chen Fang was noncommittal to Wenren's words.
"Don't reason with me. It's good to use something in a good way, and it's bad in a bad way. It's up to you. Of course it's good for you."
Wen Ren was not happy, Chen Fang was misinterpreting her meaning in a narrow and broad sense, and just wanted to refute, but Chen Fang didn't want to debate such a meaningless topic with her, after all, it was a waste of brain.
"Stop talking about that."
"I just think it's a bit detrimental to do so. After all, I come from the soul under the moral education of my hometown, and I have empathy as a human being. It's normal to feel that this kind of coercive method is very detrimental."
"But I think so, but I didn't object, right? As long as it's not used on my own people, I don't care about the means."
"Then if you don't make it clear, it will be as if we are bad people."
"Tch, we are not good people either."
"Why are we not good people? We haven't done anything bad."
"We do what they think is bad to other people, so we're not good people."
So Chen Fang and Wen Ren started a new round of debate on whether they are good people or not.
Wu Mei and Jimo had a headache, but they didn't stop it. Anyway, it's not a day or two for them to be stubborn.
In this way, during the argument between Chen Fang and Wen Ren, they brought the captives back to Xincheng. Then, because Wu Mei and Jimo had to deal with the captives, and Wen Ren needed help, Chen Fang sent Ya Ya to her laboratory. , and promised her to help her plant the land when she was free, she went back to her residence alone and conducted a three-day retreat for her.
After all, having devoured most of the source of the world, his strength and physicality have been improved, and he needs to adapt, otherwise there will be no familiarization process, which will have a considerable impact on his performance in the future.
