Chapter 93 Isn't it bad to be an outsider?
"This is impossible!"

Cui Zhiwen's complexion changed several times, and the expression on his face was uncertain.

He thought that Li Zhi was reminding him of ethical issues, but he never thought that Li Zhi would say that the result would not change?

How is this possible?
Cui Zhiwen looked at Li Zhi with a serious expression, hoping for an explanation.

He wanted to know what was wrong with him.

Then, he heard Li Zhi laugh and curse: "Did I say that I wanted to break the consensus? Did you listen to what I said?"

Cui Zhiwen frowned slightly, and asked, "Where did I not break the consensus?"

"Tell me, did you really interrupt the countdown?" Li Zhi asked.

"Isn't it?"

Cui Zhiwen's thinking seems to have fallen into chaos, and light waves flow in his eyes, but he still can't find the key point.

Li Zhi saw that he was using his brain too much, and his thinking was frozen, so he didn't continue to embarrass him, and gave the answer directly.

"You only see the first countdown, but you don't see that there is another countdown."

"Tell me about it yourself. If you follow your method, what will happen when No.40 is five days old?"

As soon as these words came out, Cui Zhiwen's pupils suddenly shrank, and he suddenly realized the problem!
Yup!

The countdown for the blue-eyed man is over, but the countdown for the red-eyed man is still there!

Cui Zhiwen overturned his answer, tried to make up for this loophole, and began to guess a brand new answer.

But no matter how he went around, he couldn't get around that problem. It was impossible for him to break the consensus of both sides at the same time!

Cui Zhiwen's mind was confused, he hesitated and said: "What if we lock up everyone, release them crosswise, and kill the last blue-eyed man and the last red-eyed man? Will it work?"

"It's useless!"

Li Zhi replied without thinking: "When the penultimate red-eyed man was released, the countdown for the blue-eyed man had already started again, and when the penultimate blue-eyed man was released, the red-eyed man The human countdown will start again, you can only interrupt one of them, and you can never interrupt the second at the same time!"

"Then kill one more each!" Cui Zhiwen said unwillingly, with killing intent already in his eyes!
Li Zhi chuckled and still shook his head: "This brings me back to the original question. When do you think the consensus first appeared? Is it really when the penultimate person was released?"

"No, it's not!" Cui Zhiwen shook his head violently, and it was obvious that he was completely confused, "Every time the red-eyed person is released, the countdown of the blue-eyed person will reset, no matter how many red-eyed people are killed, unless they are killed light, otherwise the countdown will never stop."

"Even if we kill them all, it's useless. At that time, when the last blue-eyed man is released, the countdown will start again. Consensus can never be broken!" Two extremes.

Hearing this, Cui Zhiwen raised the small white flag neatly, "Just tell me the answer, I really can't think of a way to solve this problem."

It's like a paradox, no matter how you wind it, it will form a complete circle.

Knowing that there is a loophole in it, but can't find it anyway.

There is nothing more torturous than the logical closed loop of a wireless matryoshka doll.

Li Zhi was going crazy with joy.

Philosophy is so interesting, it can drive people crazy when they are on the edge of their horns.

He leisurely raised his teacup and paid respects to Cui Zhiwen: "You see, you have not been able to escape the framework of this question, and you have not thoroughly figured out how to break the consensus."

"Actually, the method is very simple, as long as you don't let them meet each other, isn't that all right?"

"There are two ways to solve the chain of suspicion, one is to communicate, and the other is to directly isolate the two people caught in the chain of suspicion."

"Rules are hard to break, especially rules that would rather die than break, and it is even less likely to be overturned."

"So...we're going to rule out communication as an answer."

"Then the consequences are obvious."

"As long as these fifty people are scattered to fifty different places, they will never be able to reach a consensus."

"In this way, won't the problem be solved?"

Li Zhi gave the answer unhurriedly.

But obviously, Cui Zhiwen did not agree with this answer.

"As outsiders, we do have the ability to do this, but if we are in it, how can we save ourselves?"

"Then here comes the problem." Li Zhi asked suspiciously: "Why do you have to be an insider? Isn't it good to be an outsider?"

"How is this possible?"

The issue of the islanders reflects real problems.

Cui Zhiwen can find countless real examples that can apply this problem.

And this will also mean that he can never become an outsider.

As long as one lives in the world, who can ignore the etiquette and laws of the world and stay out of it?

No matter how hard Cui Zhiwen looked, he couldn't find the outsider who could break everything.

Until his eyes accidentally glanced at Li Zhi, Cui Zhiwen suddenly woke up.

"You can!" Cui Zhiwen blurted out, but then he changed his words: "It's you after you ascend the throne, the emperor can do it!"

"That's right! The emperor can do it, do you think I might lose that position?" Li Zhi asked leisurely, as if he didn't know how arrogant his words were, speaking so naturally .

For this world, the emperor has a transcendent status.

Although this kind of detachment seems somewhat ironic to the nobles.

But for the people at the bottom, the emperor is a unique existence.

As Li Zhi said, we must learn to break the consensus!

The worship of the emperor by the people at the bottom is what Li Zhi needs, so this consensus cannot be broken.

That being the case, it would be better to break the consensus of the gentry on the emperor.

Once there is no gentry class in the world, wouldn't the emperor become an outsider?

Although a new aristocracy will soon be born, giving rise to a new consensus.

But during the period when the nouveau riche was born, the emperor's status was aloof from the world.

Taking advantage of the time when the upstarts have not risen, the emperor can do many things!

Including but not limited to legal reform, restructuring, re-establishment of social framework and so on.

This will be a time to change the world.

Just like in the issue of the islanders, all the islanders were scattered out domineeringly, Li Zhi can do whatever he wants during this period of time.

And when the new framework is implemented, it becomes a new rule.

Then, no one can break this brand new power framework, unless it is... the Emperor himself!
