After saying that.

He turned around, took firm steps, and led the other five people on an unknown journey.

When they reached a complicated fork in the road, the group faced a choice.

The messenger walked resolutely towards the road leading to the embassy at the city gate.

On the other side, Moses was slowly walking into the depths of the slave area on the right.

Just as the others were about to follow the messenger and turn left, Mai Xuan stopped them.

"Hey, guys, don't rush to follow the crowd. The real protagonist of our story has already made his debut. The messenger is useless!"

When Yunyang heard this, his face was full of surprise.

Staring at Moses's receding figure with wide eyes, he couldn't help but ask:

"You mean, this bearded Moses? Him? The protagonist?"

His tone was full of disbelief.

However, he did not refute and obediently changed direction.

Follow Mai Xuan with everyone and embark on a journey to find the truth.

Along the way.

Mai Xuan seemed to have transformed into a knowledgeable traveler, speaking eloquently and telling the ancient history.

"In the Bible, the Hebrews' place of origin is actually a place called Canaan."

“In those days, famine spread like wildfire across the land of Canaan.”

"There was a Hebrew named Jacob. His youngest son, Joseph, was prime minister in Egypt and was highly respected by Pharaoh."

"Pharaoh granted the Hebrews permission to live in Goshen, where they continued their herding and farming lifestyle. They lived in Egypt for 430 years."

Jin Shile was so fascinated by what he heard that he couldn't help but interrupt:

"Wow! The Pharaoh back then was like a living Buddha. He took in refugees for so many years. How kind of him!"

Feng Feng stood aside, frowning and said in a deep voice:

"Don't forget, as the old saying goes, 'Those who are not of my kind must have different hearts.' Peace and tranquility in this world can never be taken for granted."

He turned his gaze and pointed directly at the slave area shrouded in shadows ahead.

“Are the Hebrews today the same white slaves struggling in misery?”

Mai Xuan nodded heavily, his tone filled with heaviness and determination: "That's right."

Yunyang was lost in thought, his eyes gleaming with wisdom:

"Let me make a wild guess."

"As time went on, the Hebrews multiplied and grew in power in Egypt."

"Perhaps their prosperity has touched the sensitive nerves of the Egyptians and threatened their original order of life."

“Thus, a storm against the Hebrews was quietly brewing within Egypt.”

Having said that, he paused, glanced at everyone, and continued:

"In order to maintain national stability, Pharaoh had to make the difficult decision to suppress the Hebrews to quell the unrest within Egypt?"

Mai Xuan's eyes flashed with approval when he heard this. He patted Yun Yang on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Absolutely right!"

"He, like a helmsman in a storm, tried to restrain the unstoppable vitality of the Hebrew people with an unprecedentedly massive project."

“Thus, the two towering store cities, Pithom and Rameses, were imposed on the shoulders of the Hebrews like two invisible shackles.”

"The Pharaoh hoped to curb the growth of their population and weaken their power through endless labor."

"However, things are often unexpected."

There was a hint of emotion in Mai Xuan's voice.

"Just when the Pharaoh thought he had everything under control."

"The number of Hebrews has not decreased, but has grown even more vigorously, like mushrooms after rain!"

Jin Shile heard this and smiled bitterly:

"...Awesome! This plot twist is even more exciting than the story in the novel!"

"Is this the saying 'the more oppression, the more resistance; the more hardship, the more reproduction'?"

"It's a real-life example of 'the poorer you are, the more you live'. It makes one admire the tenacity and perseverance of life."

Mai Xuan shook his head slightly, his eyes deep:

"Perhaps, this is precisely the helplessness and limitation of the times."

"In short, the Pharaoh targeted them because there were too many of them and they threatened his rule."

"It's not that they don't work hard. Seeing that the results are not good, of course the Pharaoh will continue to cut their salaries."

“So, even more cruel methods followed.”

"He not only reduced the conditions of the Hebrews to slavery, but reduced them to the status of slaves."

"They even implemented the appalling plan to limit the number of male offspring in odd and even years."

"Hebrew baby boys born in odd-numbered years were destined to drown in the river."

“When the night is still and everyone is asleep, the banks of the Nile River echo with the faint cries of babies and the relentless sound of the river swallowing them, as if it were nature’s silent protest against this unfair world.”

Jin Shile's voice trembled slightly, obviously shocked by this history.

"So cruel, so resolute, what kind of twisted era could have given rise to such a brutal policy?"

…

The setting sun is like blood, dyeing the sky into a mottled picture.

It was under this ominous yet magnificent light that the group quietly stepped into the legendary slave area.

The air was filled with depression and despair.

But with Moses, the leader chosen by fate, by his side, even this heavy atmosphere seemed to be quietly torn apart, letting in a ray of hope.

Because of Moses' presence, Feng Feng and his friends were now able to enter the slave area that they had been unable to enter a few days ago.

The boundary that was as insurmountable as a solid wall a few days ago now seemed to have lost all its strength in front of Moses' majestic and gentle figure.

They walked slowly into this land shrouded in suffering. Each step seemed particularly heavy, yet filled with an indescribable determination.

The scene in the slave quarters was shocking.

The skinny Hebrew children have eyes that show their ignorance of the world, as well as a vicissitude and tenacity that is inconsistent with their age.

The boys are of different heights and have different ages, making them look like dolls being manipulated by time, which makes people feel pity for them.

At this moment, Jin Shile's heart seemed to be pressed down by a huge rock, and every beat was accompanied by a heavy echo.

His gaze penetrated the crowd and reached deep into those innocent lives.

"You really guessed it right."

He whispered, his voice showing both helplessness towards reality and recognition of Mai Xuan's abilities.

“It’s not a guess, it’s a necessity.”

Mai Xuan responded softly, his tone revealing an unquestionable firmness.
