Saladin was silent for a moment, and then said to Elem, "Let him come here to see me."

Twenty minutes later, the students of the Truth Hall were asked to leave. In the huge hall, only Saladin and his guard were left.

When a black-clothed throat bone appeared at the door, Elem subconsciously stretched his hand to the scimitar at his waist, but it quickly returned to normal.

Saladin looked up and down at the mysterious young man, only a scrawny body remained under the loose robe, and his pale face was almost the same as the corpse.

Saladin stared at the sleeve of the throat bone and suddenly asked, "Where is your right hand?"

The expression on the face of the throat bone was not shocked: "A little accident happened."

Saladin hummed softly, and then said, "Sit down."

The throat bone came to the sitting blanket under Saladin and sat down slowly.

"About the Kantryari rebellion, you did a good job." Saladin said, touching his beard: "In just seven days, the rebels died out. This is a very successful victory."

As soon as the conversation turned, Saladin said again: "But according to the report of the soldiers who cleaned the battlefield, not only the rebels but also the residents of Kantryari have disappeared. I still clearly remember the original text in the report-the pot. The food inside is still steaming, children’s toys are scattered on the ground, and even animals, cats and dogs are hard to find. What is going on?"

The throat bone said softly: "Your Majesty, anyone who betrays the empire, whether it is a soldier or a commoner, cannot escape death. As for the method of death, does it matter?"

"Bold!" Elem drew his scimitar and shouted angrily: "Dare you talk to the Caliph like this?!"

Saladin stopped Elem and said with a smile: "What he said is correct, the important thing is the result."

Saladin looked at the throat bone and asked, "I heard that you went to the north again after you dealt with Kantryari's affairs?"

The throat bone nodded lightly: "I found a few old friends to talk about the past."

Saladin looked at the empty sleeves of his throat: "It seems that your old friend is very enthusiastic."

The throat bone laughed: "Yes, very enthusiastic."

After saying this, the throat bone put his hand into his pocket, took out a stack of books, placed it in front of Saladin, and said, "I have read all the books you lent me last time."

"Have you finished reading it all? That's a book that a university can choose to finish reading in one year!" Saladin said with a look of surprise.

The throat bone touched the knuckles: "I have very little time to sleep and eat."

Saladin picked up a book and glanced at the throat bone: "I want to test you."

"Please write a question."

"The rise of city-states is the cornerstone of the gradual disappearance of barbarism and the continuation of civilization. It represents the relationship between people, from the purely material level to the spiritual level."

""Taylor City-State History Volume VII-Suran Rhodo Civilization", page 75, last section."

Saladin raised his eyebrows and picked up another book: "The star is never the paint on the picture. It moves and shines, symbolizing every change in the world."

""Kyusu Astronomy", the first chapter of the fifteenth chapter."

Saladin clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Amazing!"

"The first time I saw you, you couldn't even read all the words. In such a short period of time, you can read through four languages ​​without any obstacles!"

The throat bone did not seem to have the slightest joyful expression: "Reading and using are two different things."

Saladin leaned forward and said with interest: "What? Are you confused?"

The throat bone took a book from the pile of books and placed it in front of Saladin: "I want to talk about this book with you."

Saladin looked down. On the cover of the book, there was a line like "Confessions" written impressively.

"Augustine's book uses meticulous and intensive techniques to dissect all kinds of human nature and compare it with divine nature." Saladin was a little surprised: "Are you interested in this book?"

The throat bone slowly said: "I have been trying to figure out a question, what is a man? What is a god?"

Saladin frowned and said, "This question is too broad. You must be more specific."

"Then let me put it another way, is it possible for human beings to become gods?"

Hearing this sentence from the throat bone, Elem was furious again: "You blasphemous villain, if I hear another blasphemous word from your mouth, swear to God, I will pull out your tongue!"

The throat bone shrugged towards Saladin: "Your Majesty, if this is a taboo, then just assume I haven't asked anything."

Saladin pondered for a while, and then said: "This is the Truth Hall. The voice of truth should not be silent, should not yield, and should not compromise."

Elem yelled anxiously: "Your Majesty!"

Saladin said firmly: "Shocking the truth back into people's mouths with power and violence will only make it sprout and take root and become deformed."

The throat bone nodded in satisfaction and said, "Then, your majesty, let us continue to discuss this topic."

Saladin thought for a while, and said, "I don't think humans have a chance to become gods."

"What's the reason?"

"Three reasons: body, ability and spirit."

"From the physical point of view, the life span of human beings is too short. Starting from childhood, then to youth, middle-aged, and finally learned something in old age, only to find that one foot has stepped into the grave."

Saladin opened his weak hands and said with a mockery: "That's why the emperors of the past dynasties think about immortality every day, and the alchemists and alchemists will cause the trend."

The throat bone interrupted him and said: "If people have broken through the shackles of the flesh, they have achieved immortality and immortality..."

Saladin smiled and said: "This is impossible. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the fate of human beings, and it is impossible for any creature to get rid of this law."

The throat bone aggravated the tone: "I mean, suppose that the human body is no longer bound, and the life span is almost eternal."

Saladin looked at the throat bone for a long time, and finally said: "If it is really like that, it is impossible for a person to become a god."

"why?"

"The second reason is ability. A human being with a long life span is more like a passer-by in the long river of history. Perhaps by coincidence, he can change a piece of history, even a world, but he can never change the truth and affect The laws of the universe."

The throat bone interrupted him again: "Assume again, if this person has the power to call the wind and the rain and change nature."

Saladin waved his hand and smiled and said, "Call the wind and call the rain? Change nature? Haha, do you know what you are talking about? There is no need to discuss this issue at all."

The hands of the throat bones firmly grasped the sitting blanket and raised the volume: "If a person has infinite life and extraordinary power, can he become a god? Answer me!"

"You lunatic!" Elem cursed while planning to rush forward to teach his throat bones, but Saladin held him back.

"Unfortunately, my answer is still impossible."

Saladin's words irritated the throat.

"why?!"

"The last reason, spirit...maybe the word spirit is not accurate, it might be better to use the word state."

"realm?"

Saladin raised the thumb and index finger of his right hand and twisted them together: "In the depths of the Aguer Desert, there is a kind of gray sand ant. They are very small, and one is not as big as a grain of rice."

The throat bone said impatiently: "What does this have to do with my problem?"

"Listen to me." Saladin continued: "Each generation of gray sand ants will have a very small probability of mutation, and a new species-the giant jaw ant will be born. This new ant can spray venom and force Infinite, you can even use jaws to smash stones and roll up gravel. All other ants will obey the giant jaw ants and worship them as the gods of the entire nest.

The throat bone was silent, and he vaguely guessed the deep meaning of Saladin's words.

"After the local nomads discovered this peculiar creature, they would deliberately breed this ant for the purpose of obtaining the giant jawed ant."

Saladin continued: "Do you know why nomads should get giant jaw ants? Because of a new gambling method-fighting ants. The dealer opens the gambling markets and odds, the gamblers place good bets, and breeders Pick strong and combative ants, put them together, let them fight and kill, and then watch which one can only live to the end."

Saladin looked at the throat bone: "For the gray sand ants, the giant jaw ant is a god, and for the gamblers, the so-called **** is nothing more than a "gambling tool"."

The throat bone was sitting on the spot, his eyes looked towards nothingness, and his mouth was muttering something.

After a long time, the throat bone suddenly stood up, put his right hand on his heart, and gave a standard discipleship to Saladin, and then left the truth hall without looking back.
