Plane Small Bookstore [System]

The sky is as blue as water, the breeze that caresses the cheeks from time to time carries the coolness and fragrance of flowers in the distance, and the gentle sunshine covers every inch of the land. This is a drowsy afternoon.

Victor lay in the shade on the window sill, his golden eyes narrowed, and he yawned lazily with his mouth open.

Le Jing is half lying on the recliner at the door of the bookstore reading a book.Victor glanced at him calmly, relieved by the tranquility between his brows.Not to mention, as long as the big devil calms down and doesn't cause trouble, it seems that the time is quiet and harmless to humans and animals.

Victor was aimlessly thinking about these things in his mind, while changing his position on the windowsill, and yawned comfortably.

What a peaceful day.

But also boring.Go out and have fun.

The black cat jumped down from the window sill furtively, and just about to use magic to leave here, when the voice of the big devil suddenly sounded slowly: "Victor."

The black cat's bowed body froze immediately, and he began to observe the young man's face in surprise, his brows were relaxed, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he seemed to be in a good mood.The black cat breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that nothing bad would happen.

If Victor is also an upright devil of the abyss, why is he so afraid of Le Jing, a delicate, weak and unarmed human being?Of course it wasn't because of Le Jing's charisma.And because—that big fool Keynes!

After Keynes' gaze fell on Victor, he didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, ran over quickly, then squatted obediently on the ground, staring eagerly at the man lying on the recliner with his round cat eyes , Dogleg said: "I have something to tell you."

The Great Demon King closed the book, sat up, looked at him thoughtfully, and made Victor tremble with fear.A few seconds later, the big devil said to the flattering black cat in the same flat tone as if you went to the opposite door to buy me a pack of cigarettes: "Give away all the books I brought back from your world."

"mum?"

The Great Demon King sighed sadly, "As you can see, it is too slow to wait for others to buy books. Up to now, only three books have been sold."

Victor couldn't help but said: "There are a lot of customers these days." The implication is that no matter what, you should not only sell three books.

"Could it be that any cat or dog is eligible to own my book?" The young man raised his eyebrows and smiled with indescribable arrogance, "My book is only given to qualified people."

Victor cautiously asked: "What is the definition of qualified?"

Le Jing looked at him with a half-smile: "Don't you know this better than me?"

Victor was silent.Indeed, the souls of the three selected by Le Jing were condensed and powerful. If he had not seen Le Jing's soul before, he would definitely do everything possible to sign a contract with them to get their souls.

now.Victor glanced at the Great Demon King resentfully, and it was fine if he was not allowed to eat his soul, and he was not allowed to eat wild food.Last time when Le Jing found out that he sneaked out to coax Su Ran into signing the contract, he didn't do anything to him.It's just that he told Keynes about this matter in a sad tone, with vivid self-blame in his eyes.

Then Keynes, Lejing's number one loyal "believer", flew into a rage.Victor didn't want to recall exactly how he dealt with him, he only remembered that Le Jing showed him a reserved and gloating smile behind Cairns.

The black cat, who was sinking into memories and self-pity, heard the words of the big devil lightly: "The soul of the person you choose is at your disposal."

With a brush, the black cat's ears stood up, and he looked at Le Jing with bright eyes: "Is what you said true?"

"Of course." Le Jing nodded with a smile, looked down at a certain black cat who was overjoyed, and added: "But you can only sign a contract with them on the basis of the principle of fairness. And only they are dying, You can go and take their souls."

Looking down at the black cat with flickering eyes, he warned again in a more emphatic tone: "Don't speed up their death process."

The black cat nodded guiltily.

Looking at the back of the black cat Sahuan running away, Le Ling's worried voice suddenly rang out from Le Jing's mind: 【Is this okay? 】

Le Jing lay back down again, opened the book and covered his chest: 'Huh?What do you mean? '

[Let people on earth think that the two worlds are merging. ] Le Ling's voice sounded worried: 【This will cause chaos in the world. 】

Le Jing raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Perhaps the realm of human thought will be in chaos for a while, but I believe that when they calm down, they will burst out with unparalleled enthusiasm." '

【Why do you say that? 】

'Do you know the catfish effect? ' Le Jing asked.

This is not a problem for Le Ling: [Spanish fishermen put catfish, their natural enemy, into the sardine school in order to keep the sardines they caught alive.In this way, in order to avoid the predation of catfish, sardines can only swim desperately, so as to maintain the vitality of sardines, so that sardines can be brought back to the harbor by fishermen alive.Economics calls it the catfish effect. 】

'That's right. Le Jing closed his eyes slightly, nodded in satisfaction and said, "In my opinion, the current human beings are sardines, and the magic book I brought back from the b35 plane is catfish."In today's society, the trend of class solidification has strengthened, and the channels for advancement have become narrower and narrower.The trend of worshiping money in society is getting higher and higher, and even children dream of becoming rich.Such a society is too impetuous, which makes me uneasy.So I think today's society needs more stimulation. '

[So this is your purpose? 】

'Yes and no. Le Jing looked at the blue sky dully, "Life is too boring now." 100 years later, when people look back on the history of the first 21 years of the 20st century, do you know what conclusions they will draw? '

Le Ling guessed: [The economy is taking off?Continuous local wars?With the rapid development of science and technology, the third information revolution has changed the mode of production and social structure?China's strong rise? 】

'No, neither. Le Jing lowered his eyes, hiding the complex emotions in his eyes: "They will only feel bored." '

'There was no collision of ideas during the Renaissance, no global wars like World War I and World War II, no bipolar political confrontations that affected the world like the Cold War, and no legendary collapse of empires like the disintegration of the Soviet Union.The European debt crisis and the European refugee crisis, which are talked about by the news media, are not comparable to Japan after the economic bubble in the 90s and the Great Famine in Henan in 1942; which local chaos in the Middle East and Africa can compare World War II?Which of the experts and scholars in today's era can be more influential than the long-gone masters of the last century?How can the mainstream values ​​that have been solidified now compare with the flourishing of people's thinking in the last century? Le Jing said a lot in one breath, and Le Ling listened quietly, he felt that he seemed to understand Le Jing's thoughts a little bit, but he didn't understand.

'So you see, when our children and grandchildren look through the history books and look up nearly 20 years of history, they will sigh with boredom.Students in history class will only fall asleep to the endless economic and political struggles of various countries. What they are always interested in is fresh, exciting, interesting, and even terrifying and inhumane history. '

Le Jing stopped, calmed down his breathing, and regained his usual calmness.

【...So your purpose is to create an impressive history for future generations?Even if you want to start a war and create a brutal and horrible history? 】

Le Jing was very surprised when he heard this: "Of course not, why would you think so!"War is a meat grinder, it will only crush interesting souls and worlds, I hate war, it is an atrocity against humanity!I just want to use magic to shake the human cognition that has been solidified for thousands of years, let human beings discover other possibilities, and create a legendary history that even children in future generations can talk about with relish. '

'Do you know Darwin's Theory of Evolution?The core of the theory of evolution is competition, and only through constant competition can species evolve and a species maintain long-term vitality. Le Jing said: "This is why there is an old saying in China called 'Heroes come out of troubled times'. '

'In the history of China, there have been two great explosions in the field of thought, one is the contention of a hundred schools of thought caused by the collapse of ritual and music in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and the other is the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures in the modern Republic of China. various famous theories. Mentioning those two periods of history where heroes gathered together and a hundred flowers blossomed, the young man's eyes sparkled: "That was the most vigorous era in Chinese history. Every day a new theory was born, and every second contained infinite possibilities. '

'Peace is a good thing, and I am willing to protect it.But peace does not mean closure and decay. Peace should be full of vitality and full of hope, just like the enthusiasm of the whole people to build a country that broke out after the founding of New China. There seems to be a deep flame burning in the depths of Lejing's eyes: "So, the only thing I can't bear is that this era has no imagination, enthusiasm and possibility. '

There is naked ridicule and disgust in the eyes of young people: "There are only a few kinds of political systems in the country. Under the brainwashing of the media, the three views of human beings begin to converge. Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, etc. are still affecting the thoughts and theories of the whole world." Born in BC, no other ideas and theories have been able to shake their dominance for thousands of years. '

Dipster once said, "God created you and I, for God's sake, let me be me." But in this day and age, the difference between 'you' and 'me' is getting smaller and smaller Yes, human beings are moving toward similarities.There are fewer and fewer interesting and unique people, and more and more boring and similar people.This kind of social class will only become more and more solidified. The son of a politician will always be a politician, the son of a rich man will always be a rich man, and the son of a beggar will always be a beggar.Such a society seems to be peaceful and stable, but this peace and stability is based on the possibility of sacrificing the people at the bottom.This is peace and stability for the upper class, not for the masses of the people. '

'Why are there magic, fairy art, gods and other surreal things in human fantasy?Because human beings have imagination, it is also because they hope that such a surreal existence can help them break through the confinement of the human race and help them solve problems that they cannot solve. Le Jing raised his eyes, his eyes were purer than the clear blue sky, and more persistent than the eternal blue sky: "So I put the magic seeds into the earth, and I want to see how the earth will develop civilization, I want to know what kind of imagination and creativity human beings will explode in front of magic.I hope this opens a little bit of a social upswing, and I hope more kids realize that magic is more fun than money.What I hope to see is a vibrant and peaceful world, not a false peace under decay. '

At this moment, Le Ling finally fully understood Le Jing.

His ambition is higher than the sky, and more dangerous than the deep sea.

He is walking a road that is destined to be rough and long, and may not see the end in his life.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered a poem by a great Romantic poet in ancient China: "I have always been good at what I have in mind, even though I died nine times, I still have no regrets." '

And the poet named Qu Yuan chose to jump into the river to die for his country after the country perished.

What about Lejing?

...he didn't want him to die.

[Even if the price is your life? ] Le Ling persuaded anxiously: [And even if you die, you may not be able to realize your ideals. After all, it is almost impossible to change the world by one person. 】

'If I die, then it just proves that I am just such a man.And—"The young man blinked his eyes, and rarely showed a bright and vigorous smile:" You might as well be bold when dealing with life, because we will always lose it. ①'

The author has something to say:

① Nietzsche's famous saying.

I know that many of you are definitely dissatisfied with Le Jing's ideas, thinking that he is too arrogant and extreme.Well, he is probably being dazzled by power now and has become arrogant.So in the future he will realize this and correct it bit by bit.

And, the next dungeon preview: the post-apocalyptic world begins to rebuild in the ruins!
