Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Chapter 648 Comfort Zone

At first, Lawrence received a letter from Bull saying that Yubao was sick, so he quickly asked people to prepare medicine and asked Oak City to take care of Yubao.

A day later, he received a letter saying that the situation there was much better, so he felt relieved to continue staying.

A few days later, Yubao and Lana both recovered, just like most children of this era, they carried it by themselves.

Eating enough is still the best guarantee for stable population growth, and it is more effective than many medical technologies.

Only after eating enough can you have a healthy body to resist various diseases.

This is true for children and young people. Only the elderly gradually age due to digestive problems, coupled with many diseases and pains, eating alone can no longer solve the problem.

When Lawrence continued to be busy with the design of bridges and machinery in Snow Mountain Castle, Bull conveyed the opinions of the nuns here.

"Trouble."

Lawrence looked at Bull's letter and knew that this time the matter was very serious.

Lana's existence has affected the nuns of the Harbor Monastery.

Sophia was designing a gear crane at a desk near Lawrence. After hearing this, she looked up at Lawrence.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"There's a little trouble in the monastery. I'll take care of it."

Sophia quickly continued to do her own thing. She was not interested in government affairs.

Lawrence was unwilling to talk about this matter in depth with Sophia and others.

Usually, he was willing to share all kinds of things, but he didn't want to talk much about this matter.

The nuns are actually a group of miserable people who have dedicated their lives to the monastery.

The outside world thinks that they live a happy and stable life, but this is all Lawrence's own assistance. Most of the nuns joined after they became adults and they all know what the real world outside is like.

The monastery is the last home for the nuns.

Many people left their original families, parents and relatives, husbands and children to join here.

The female priest Hela was infertile, so she had to join the monastery if she wanted to have someone to rely on. Whether she married or remained single, she would die.

The same is true for Ulla and Countess Olaya. The only way out that women without support can see is the monastery.

No matter how powerful you are when you are young, as long as you are a human, you will age and become powerless.

All animals in the wild will be eaten, whether it is a wild bear or a lion or a bison. Most of them will not die of illness, but will be eaten alive when they are too weak to run or bite.

This is the case in the natural world. Most animals eat meat alive.

Cut open the belly and eat from the softest part.

Among the nobles and civilians in this world, sick old people will die soon and will not be properly taken care of.

When they lose their ability to work, they are not taken care of, but abused.

This may be a very good development, which is the treatment only for nobles.

Normally, before this, the property and house of the head of the family will be occupied by his son and outsiders.

When the son becomes strong and powerful, the right to dispose of the house and livestock in the family has actually been naturally transferred from the old man to the strong child.

The civilization of the Star Country relies on giving, and whoever gives has status.

The warriors' contribution is fighting. This group of people did not have the idea of ​​Lawrence taking care of them in their old age, and they are still accustomed to the previous traditional cognition.

When a warrior has no strength and can't fight, it is the time when he loses the right to speak.

Therefore, the more barbarian men are in their thirties and forties, the more they will instinctively drink and fight, especially in front of women and children to show their violence.

Craftsmen are much better. They have already understood that their value is not to fight with others, but to work.

Work lasts longer than fighting. Even if you are in your fifties or sixties, you can continue to work, get a generous salary, continue to control your family, and continue to exist as the head of the family.

If you are a technician, or an archon who relies on experience and knowledge management, then you can die in bed like an aristocrat.

The problem of nuns is different from that of most people. This is a smaller group that needs more recognition from everyone.

What they need is not only the recognition of the monastery group, but also the recognition of the outside world.

Loyalty is necessary to maintain the existence of this group.

Only by constantly paying loyalty, coupled with the external views and image issues that may not be understood by everyone at present, can the impression of the nun group in front of the public and the self-awareness of the nun group be maintained.

If there is no constraint and rule similar to loyalty, then anyone can join the monastery, and can come and go as they please like a hotel or tavern, and even ignore the rules of the nuns and do not respect the nuns' masters, which is a destruction to the entire group.

The old nuns can clearly see the problem with Lana, and they think that Lana's existence will bring misfortune.

This is a feeling, as well as a summary of experience and cognition.

If it is in a peaceful society, it is probably that there is a person in the civil servant group who behaves casually towards the leader, often lies, is lazy, and does not like to work and study.

Even if this young man is highly valued by the big leader, the department leader does not want this person to stay.

If the department leader is in charge of a department with a more dignified image, then the existence of such an alien is even more unacceptable.

The nuns in the monastery knew that Lawrence loved Lana, but even so, these older nuns who were loyal to Lawrence still wanted Lawrence to know about this.

Lawrence knew that this matter must be resolved, and he couldn't help sighing for Lana in his heart.

The monastery is also Lana's home...

Lana has always regarded the monastery as a warm home. She grew up in the monastery for most of her life, watching the monastery change from a small house to a large courtyard, and watching groups of people live in the halls.

Lawrence picked up a pen and wrote a letter.

Dear Bull, I have received your letter. Lana's problem is indeed very serious.

I will not give up on any nun. Lana, like the other nuns in the monastery, is unwilling to leave the monastery. The monastery is her home.

Lana's main problem is that she can't listen to others.

Whether it is your punishment or education from other nuns, she always forgets it quickly, and she can't listen to the conversations between her peers and her.

Her main problem is not a brain problem, but a stagnation in thought. No one has ever told her that everything she has is not what it should be, and she also lacks correct self-awareness.

Let Yubao continue to recuperate in the monastery, and let the familiar fisherwoman take care of Yubao.

Let Lana go to Kuer Village and live in the village where her parents lived for a month. She should work with the children there every day, eat with the old people, sleep with unmarried women or widows, and allow her to come back when it snows.

If Yubao doesn't want to separate from Lana, tell Yubao this letter. If Yubao wants to go together, you can agree.

If Lana's performance is still so bad, then let her and Yubao go to the Western Wave Island and become nuns in the monastery there.

***

At the Harbor Monastery, Bull called several old nuns and representatives of noble nuns, as well as Yubao, who was held by the fisherwoman, and read Lawrence's reply.

Yubao was immediately depressed, and lowered his head in a low voice without looking at others.

It can't write or speak, but it could understand what others said a long time ago, and it has been able to accurately understand various meanings over the years.

In fact, Yubao can also feel Lana's problem.

The problem is Lana, not Yubao. Yubao has always respected the prophet, never lied to the prophet, and worked very hard.

The fish he usually eats and the fish he gives away are his own share, and he doesn't take more fish from the prophet.

Yubao has a strong sense of territory and distribution. Like most barbarians, he has the traditional cognition of handing over part of the spoils.

Lana, on the other hand, is protected too well and is too lazy to make progress, which leads to the current situation.

"This is the will of the prophet, but you are allowed to express your opinions. The prophet also hopes that we can resolve this matter internally."

The noble nun said: "This is very good. The prophet's decision is the best decision."

The old nun also said: "Lana is a nun in the monastery. If she is driven away, the other children will become obedient, but if she can stay, it will also reflect the prophet's kindness. This is very good. I hope that silly Lana can realize the greatness of the prophet."

Bull saw that the other nuns agreed to this arrangement, so he sent Tasna to carry out the prophet's arrangement.

If it were another monastery, the nuns with problems would have been driven away long ago.

But the kind Lawrence took into account the stability issue that many nuns in the monastery care about most, and chose education, trying not to move Lana to another place, and not to create the first case of expelling nuns from the monastery.

As Lawrence's number one believer, Tasna is disgusted with those who disrespect the prophet, but she can't hate Lana either.

"Can't we tell her about this matter directly and let her come here to know the prophet's kindness to her?"

Even Yubao and the nearby fisherwoman can hear the treatment of Lana here, but Lana alone doesn't know what happened to her.

Bull looked at Tasna.

"That child can only refute and admit her mistakes, and she doesn't know where she really went wrong."

"It's not a good thing for her to listen to our treatment of her here. She can't refute such things."

"The monastery has its own rules. We are helping Lana now, and the prophet's decision is the most correct decision."

Tasna nodded quickly, "Yes, Lord Bull, the prophet's guidance is the oracle."

Bull knew very well that Lawrence was not always right.

But what about others?

Bull felt that whether it was himself or the others, even the person involved this time, Lana, if Lana could choose the right path herself, she would not be punished today.

Lana's problem was not a one-day or two-day problem, and it was not because she pretended to be sick that she aroused everyone's disgust.

She has always been like this since she was a child. She doesn't work hard, doesn't study hard, and most importantly, she doesn't take the prophet respected by everyone seriously. She always wanders around the monastery with a careless expression.

If it weren't for the blessing of the prophet, this child should have been beaten a few times and learned to respect through pain.

Also because of Lawrence's blessing, the other nuns usually don't teach her well, and a lot of problems have accumulated.

Bull and the other nuns usually persuade Lana to pay more attention, but Lana never listens.

Persuasion education is not suitable for the Ice Land. People here don't remember unless they are beaten or suffer pain.

Seraven was beaten since childhood. Luke exploded because he thought he indirectly killed his father. Later, he learned his lesson during the battle. He killed anyone with a weapon, regardless of right or wrong.

Including Salier and Deren, many people here are very stubborn.

Deren became obedient after being beaten, but Salier never fought with Lawrence. Lawrence didn't want to change Salier's nature, so he always stayed like that.

After poor Lana was sent to Kuer Village by oxcart for training, Yubao moved into Bull's house, and Bull taught and took care of the little guy.

On the other side of the mountain

Lawrence also realized his own problem.

Over the years, he gradually had his own comfort zone, so he got used to many problems and didn't want to change.

Whether it was Lana's matter or many people and things around him, it was because of their own adaptation and habits, and they didn't want them to change anything.

Even if there was a problem, they thought it was okay.

For example, the bad character of witches, they had been used to it for many years, and never asked them to change, let alone severely criticized them for such things.

There are many similar things, and since nothing has happened, I don't want to change.

"Alas." Lawrence sighed for his laziness, "Fortunately, I know how to promote the progress of civilization and inject vitality into the development of productivity and production relations. Generally speaking, there is no big problem."

Lawrence lay on the bed, reaching out to grab the invisible air, as if he had grabbed the world.

"As long as people are alive, as long as there is a direction, they can't be too bad."

"The problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation are solved well, and the military is also more stable, which has surpassed many people." Lawrence put down his arms, turned around and lay down with his legs curled up, "It's so tiring, I also want to be a child who never grows up, and there is an adult who always takes care of me."

But since I came here more than ten years ago, I am no longer a child.

Running for shelter, fighting for food, revenge for my own life, and robbing for a better life.

It is not wrong to artificially create a comfort zone. People with ability will do this. Everyone wants to live more comfortably.

Lawrence doesn't want to live the life of an ascetic monk either.

"As long as this country can hold on for a hundred years, it's fine. Other things have nothing to do with me. I don't care how future generations evaluate me."

Lawrence did not change the ideas of the people around him. Lana's problem was her own problem.

If she could not have the same faith as the other nuns and abide by the rules and common sense that the other nuns abide by, then she would definitely leave the home she didn't want to leave.

Most human groups cannot tolerate aliens. For example, a multi-ethnic country like the Star Land has always been unified into the ice bloodline, not giving some people the recognition of being maverick.

If Lana is willing to leave her hometown, Lawrence is willing to build a monastery for her on the tropical seashore in the east or west, which is more suitable for her and Yubao.

No matter how you look at it, Yubao is a tropical sea creature. He is still young now, but people should be sent to the east and west to ask if there are other sea creatures willing to come and settle down. (End of this chapter)
