Chapter 143: Turning Back

Hearing Wang Jiu say the words "killing people and killing people" lightly, Shen Ruoshi almost wanted to scold his mother, what kind of birdman is Qing Ming is looking for, he will kill people at every turn! It's just a matter of extinguishing the mouth, is it necessary to kill someone?!

Wang Jiu said: "From the perspective of the history of human society, even the dead may not be able to keep secrets, let alone the living. ”

"So you're suggesting that I kill someone?"

Wang Jiu said: "Of course not, you were just asking, what should I do if I encounter this situation." But your situation is different, and I am very much in favor of you taking such extreme measures. ”

“…… So it doesn't matter if you take extreme measures yourself? ”

Wang Jiu said: "For the sake of the overall interests, it is inevitable to make sacrifices by extreme means at some time. ”

Shen Ruoshi only trembled and was angry when he heard this, why didn't anyone find out before that there was such a shameless face hidden under this pointed face!

However, for Wang Jiu, this sentence really comes from the lesson of the countless blood of the Kyushu people, the war of immortals and demons, especially in the early days of the war, the infiltration of the demon race into human beings is everywhere, and the benevolence of a woman for a while may be exchanged for millions of people. All kinds of public knowledge and good customs formed by human society over tens of thousands of years have been completely destroyed under the crisis of extinction. For the sake of the majority, the lives of the few can be erased without hesitation, and only this cruelty can ensure that humanity persists in the most difficult time.

However, for the people of Xiangzhou who live in a peaceful era, this survival logic is too cold-blooded and ruthless, so Shen Ruoshi replied very decisively: "I don't need to say yes or no, I will never do such a brute act as killing people and killing people!" ”

Wang Jiu thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, only human civilization will consider exterminating because of keeping secrets, and beasts don't care about secrets. ”

"......" Shen Ruoshi was speechless for a while.

If someone else talked to him like this, the Gathering Sand Divine Skill would have already been fought, but Wang Jiu ...... There is indeed such an incredible charm, especially when you meet him face to face, you can feel the sincerity and purity in his eyes.

People have never been able to really get angry with him.

Shen Ruoshi shook his head, digested the little anger in his heart, and then asked: "I have something to say, if I don't want people to know that I am Sanshengshi, what should I do?" ”

Wang Jiu said: "Well, interesting question, generally speaking, a person who has made great achievements in a certain field, out of social psychology, will seek a broad sense of recognition from the public. Especially when you have made great achievements in a field that is not unrelated to your main business, it will appear that this person is fully capable, so for what purpose do you want to hide this fact? ”

Wang Jiu's question simply made Shen Ruoshi's face turn red and purple: "Where did you get so many questions!?" ”

Wang Jiu said: "I need to understand the background situation in detail before I can make reasonable suggestions in more detail. As a simple example, if there is an extraterritorial Heavenly Demon with enough strength to destroy the world and threaten to say that once your pen name is exposed, he will destroy the Xiangzhou Continent, then based on the overall interests, I think killing people is the best solution. ”

"Where in this world did the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon come from!?"

Wang Jiu said: "I also want to know this question, if you have clues, please contact me." ”

Shen Ruoshi gritted his teeth for a long time, and finally said in a deep voice: "I don't want the impression I have left on my hard work for many years to be destroyed. I've always played a role like a stone when my children were younger, and if they knew that I was writing about that kind of thing in my spare time......"

Speaking of which, Shen Ruoshi himself couldn't go on,

Wang Jiu thought for a while: "That is, based on the consideration of maintaining the prestige of the former leader of Shencheng?" See, it's not that hard to deal with. ”

Shen Ruoshi was shocked when he heard this, it was not difficult to deal with?

Wang Jiu said: "Although I don't have a deep understanding of human society, many things are common, for example, some leaders have been exposed to the erosion of their private lives, and there are acts of bullying young girls, and the conditions are limited, and all the exposed people cannot be eliminated, so the correct way to deal with it is to rationalize the evil deeds." ”

Shen Ruoshi frowned: "Bullying a young girl, how can this kind of thing be rationalized?" ”

Wang Jiu said: "The most popular explanation is that she has a strange poison in her body, and she must be between 100 and 101 years old, with white hair and black clothes, and the true yuan realm is infused with pure body fluids by men in the sea realm, so she ...... out of helplessness."

"Why do you have to use me as an example!?"

Wang Jiu explained: "Enhance the sense of substitution, more convincing. ”

“…… In short, is it to make up a lie that anyone can see through at a glance to deceive others? ”

Wang Jiu said: "Why can you see through it at a glance? I think my rationalization is perfect, and I think there are often similar episodes in recent best-selling literature, and I think the public acceptance should be very high. ”

"You...... Look less and pay more attention to reality. Shen Ruoshi said, while he also fell into contemplation, although Wang Jiu's example is absurd, but the truth is not bad, as long as a slightly more reliable reason can be given, I believe that most people are not willing to admit it: the dignified city lord of Shencheng is a romantic man in private.

Most people can't accept this kind of personality collapse, and would rather deceive themselves and choose a relatively less ridiculous reason to escape from reality, and what they have to do now is to give them a reason.

As a literary master, this ability to weave plots and connect stories is naturally easy to catch, and after thinking for a while, Shen Ruoshi came up with a method that is not a method.

"Otherwise, let's just say that it is a conspiracy against forces outside the city." Shen Ruoshi said, "In the past few decades, if something happened in the city that was inconvenient to disclose the truth to the outside world, it would be said that Qingyun Li's family had done it, and the public acceptance was still quite high. Now that the Li family is inconvenient to continue to use this reason, it seems feasible to replace it with the Jinyu Zhao family. ”

Wang Jiu thought for a while: "In order to damage the reputation of the former city lord of Shencheng, hit the cultural self-confidence of the people of Shencheng, and destroy the social system of Shencheng, the Zhao family of Jinyucheng secretly set up conspiracies and tricks to tempt you to create romance in your spare time?" ”

“…… Isn't it possible? ”

Wang Jiu said: "I think it's good. ”

"That's good." Shen Ruoshi nodded, he also felt that this reason should be quite effective for the people of Shen City, and by deducing from this, he could further polish the details, for example, how was the dignified Shen City Lord tricked by the Zhao family of Jin Yucheng and transferred to become a romance master?

"Let's just say that the Jinyu City Lord and I once had a dispute, and she vainly said that the people of Shencheng are brave and unscrupulous, and the culture lacks gentleness, meticulousness and humanistic care, and belongs to an inferior culture. And in order to maintain the honor of Shencheng, I not only forcefully retorted to her erroneous remarks on the spot, but also made a bet with her: I am the lord of Shencheng, an iron-blooded man who has fought and killed all his life, and I can also incarnate a romance and write literary works that sell well in the mainland and are recognized by everyone in the world. As long as the popularity of my pen name continues to increase in 20 years and the sales continue to rise, even if I win, Jin Yucheng will mainly apologize to me and the people of Shencheng in public! ”

As soon as this reason came out, even Shen Ruoshi himself felt that he was so witty, worthy of being a literary master with equal works.

According to his explanation, he writes romance in his spare time, not only is he not sullen, but he is dedicated to the people, broad-minded, and for the interests of Shen Cheng, he does not hesitate to gamble on the prestige of his life.

"And when I was asked why this matter should be kept strictly secret, it can also be interpreted as a requirement in the gambling contract, in order to prevent me from forcibly selling this book as the lord of the city. Sanshengshi's works sell well all over the world, relying on content rather than marketing, this gamble, I want Zhao Shenlu to lose convincingly! ”

After speaking, Shen Ruoshi looked at Wang Jiu with blazing eyes: "What do you think of this explanation?" ”

Wang Jiu said: "In other words, you need Zhao Shenlu to bear the infamy of insulting Shen Cheng and apologize to you?" ”

Shen Ruoshi said: "I see that you have a good relationship with her, can you help me persuade her to do a favor?" ”

"I can try, but this old friend has always been reluctant to listen, so I think it's very unlikely that she will agree to help."

Shen Ruoshi said: "It doesn't matter, her refusal will only confirm my previous slander, and it seems that she is a despicable villain who dares to do it." ”

Wang Jiu thought for a while and concluded: "I see, that is, you need to let my friend bear all the infamy, just to protect your personal honor?" ”

Shen Ruoshi added: "It is not only a personal honor, but also a spiritual totem of the people of Shencheng...... Well, I admit it's despicable, even more ridiculous than the Lee family I wrote. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Ruoshi suddenly let out a sigh: "That's it, dare to do it, when did I fall to such a point?" The old man has been upright all his life, but he wants to become a lewd villain after the age of 100, this demon is really making people change his temperament. ”

After speaking, Shen Ruoshi puffed up his chest and said: "There is nothing bad to admit about what I did, I will wake up those sleeping children later, and then I will announce this matter, including the things I tried to silence in order to hide the truth." And then the slander from the outside world, I will accept it calmly, just as this is a spiritual war, as a Shencheng soldier, even if the battle is at the last moment, I will never turn around and run away again. ”

Before the words fell, a woman's chuckle suddenly came from the room.

The voice is somewhat lively, some familiar.

"It's quite like that, seeing that you have lived for a hundred years, it is finally a bit of a descendant. But I can help you with this, there is no need to be so tragic. ”
