47 See the wise men

"So at the time...... Because Sun Lao and the two of them insisted on not being with these people, and even proposed that if we were embarrassed, then wait for the next batch, and let those ambitious volunteers form a group to travel through the toss by themselves, anyway, there are still an astronomical number of time and space waiting for people to cross. ”

Nicole recalls with a laugh.

"It's okay to gather people in groups."

Quan Yishan, who had been sitting on the side and had been silent, also nodded when he heard this.

"Yes, then, we thought about it carefully, and we did feel that it was indeed extremely irresponsible to form a team of rabble and travel into a strange time and space. It seemed a little unreasonable, both in conscience and in terms of the prevailing morality of our time, so we changed course. ”

"Well, according to my own life experience, Sun Lao's request is understandable, and people who have not experienced wind and frost can't think of this layer."

Lao Ba glanced at Sun Lao, who was sitting in the corner not far away, drinking tea with his head down, and nodded in agreement with this.

"So Nicole, when I was hesitant to join the crossing, you immediately offered to help me bring my family ......"

Gu Jin, who was sitting on Nicole's other side, turned his head to look at the group of women who were talking to each other not far away, and also asked Nicole in a low voice.

"That's right, of course it's good to be able to have both, but so far, very few of us have succeeded in the combination, except for you Captain Gu's family, oh, and Mr. Quan's two sons and Quan Zhenhai, which are not a complete family of three."

"So you just chose to be alone like us? To save trouble haha? ”

After Lao Wang said this, a rare smile appeared on his face.

"Of course, there is an element of convenience, but although we have basically followed this hidden condition, there is one thing to make clear---- we can't guarantee what you will become in the future! Anyway, at least so far, our assessment of each of you is pretty good.

Oh, and ah, if you are looking for people like you, you don't have to force you to do things that test your humanity such as whether or not to give up your affection, Sun Lao and Teacher Zhao have said to me, don't try to test our humanity, because everyone is not a saint. ”

"Oh, oh, I'm afraid there are no real saints in this world except gods, but there are endless hypocrites pretending to be saints......"

At this time, Lao Wang nodded silently, muttered softly.

"Human nature can't stand the test at all, if there is really a strange thing to pass the test, it is that the price is not enough, haha......"

"Holy! Old Sun, when did your old man come behind us? What you said just now makes people feel a little creepy! ”

"Well, it's scary ...... to think about it."

"Hey! Everyone is an adult, who doesn't know that this is a cruel reality? If you really want to force your humanity to test, if not in a tragic tragedy, it will end in a hypocritical farce, and the young people in this room may not know this, but you and me, the old guys, don't you understand? ”

"Haha! Of course I do! It's just that Mr. Sun, your words are too unpleasant, but the problem is that this is indeed an irrefutable cruel fact, alas...... Why do I want to cry when I hear it......"

"Want to cry? This can only show that Lao Wang, your conscience is not clear! Therefore, whether a person has faith or not is very important, and it is difficult for a person without faith to suppress the evil in human nature. ”

"Regarding your beliefs, we, as people who have traveled back to the future, do not comment on this issue, because there is no quantifiable standard of good and evil in this world to evaluate beliefs, and we never try to quantify good and evil and thoughts, which is not only ineffective but also evil. But it is precisely because you do not have to be tested by human nature that it is one of the most important reasons why we choose your kind to cross......."

Nicole smiled and looked at the old guys who seemed a little worried, and responded in a light tone.

"Hmm...... I should indeed be glad that my humanity has not been tested, and I sincerely hope that there will never be a situation that tests our humanity. ”

After listening to Nicole's words, Gu Jin was also thoughtful, lowered his head and said a deep sigh.

"But, Nicole, people change, and we may become bad in the future, so how can we suppress the evil of human nature among us, so that we can maintain harmony within and outside?"

"Brother Zhu, this requires your own wisdom......"

Nicole smiled again and gave an ambiguous answer.

"Well, to suppress the evil of human nature, one depends on faith, and the other depends on the system. But I personally believe that faith is a private thing, not only private, but also unpredictable. Therefore, blindly relying on faith to restrain the evil of human nature is tantamount to saying that we must rely on personal consciousness in everything...... I don't think it's reliable. ”

Elder Sun immediately expressed his views on this issue very seriously.

"So, it's better that we have a good system that everyone agrees on to regulate our internal behavior, so that if there is a bad guy in our basket, we can have restrictions on what we want to do, right?"

"Yes, a good system can make bad people unable to do bad things, while a bad system can make good people do bad things unconsciously."

Gu Jin also nodded violently at this time, interjecting in agreement with Sun Lao's statement.

"However, when we establish our own system, we must be very cautious, and we can't just make a rush to come out, as Captain Gu said just now, once the system goes wrong, even if it is a good person, even if it is out of good intentions, in the end it will still do bad things, even big bad things, this is a bloody historical lesson!"

At this time, Lao Wang gave a warning to the people around him.

Therefore, we should follow in the footsteps of our ancestors and strive to be a group of realistic idealists. If you can't do it, you should at least be an idealistic realist. Perhaps, these two standards are a bit too high for our group of people, and we may not be able to fully achieve them, but when we see the wisdom and wisdom, 'although we can't reach it, we yearn for it', can be the motto of you and me......"

Sun Lao continued to speak a long way after Lao Wang's words, and when he said that he was excited, he stood up unconsciously, and his volume increased a lot.

Bang bang, several people around Sun Lao, including Nicole, applauded softly.

So the discussion began to deepen gradually, and everyone expressed their opinions and feelings.

"Sun Lao really has lofty vision, I Zhao Xihe expressed my admiration, ideals should be combined with reality, but the two must not abandon one or the other. So if you want me to say, the material aid is important, but I feel that now everyone is a little neglected about our internal system construction, in fact, what kind of internal system will we create as a collective to regulate our behavior, this is the key to it! ”

"Elder Sun, I agree with your views on beliefs and systems, so the question is, what goals does the system we have created need to achieve? The goals are different, the systems must be different, right? ”

Lao Ba thoughtfully asked a question.

"I think it's important to create a system within us where we are all equal and not violated by one another. To establish a system in which any one of us is free and cannot be deprived of the infringement of our individual legal rights and interests under any name! For this reason, it is important to keep two sentences in mind when establishing our system. ”

Sun Lao paused when he said this, obviously he was also considering the words, so several old guys and Nicole around him looked at him quietly and waited for the rest of the text.
