"Hehe, teacher, what I said is a real thing, absolutely logical!" Zhao Linger said.

"Do you call that logic? You're sophistry! ”

"Sophistry? What is the meaning? Zhao Ling'er asked.

Hegel once pointed out: "The word sophistry usually means to shake a true truth by any means, on false grounds, or by denying it; Or make a false truth sound very good, as if it were true. This passage of Hegel exposes the characteristics of sophistry that deliberately invert right and wrong and confuse black and white. Now we often see around us, some fortune tellers, face-to-face, divination, they deceive people to ask for money, a magic weapon, is to try their best to say vague words, puns, two sides blocked, surrounded on all sides, just say it, reverse it is also possible, improvised, anyway, let you believe that his words work. This is pure sophistry. Wang Erwu said.

"Teacher, you seem to be telling the truth!" Zhao Ling'er's eyes widened with curiosity.

"What do you mean by being like the real thing? That's true! Let me tell you a sophistry story. ”

"Oh? Could it be that you've worked as a fortune teller before? ”

"I can't do it! Does not meet the requirements. Wang Erwu replied.

"Can't, your mouth, you can say that you are dead, how can you not do it? Hehe, why are you still humble in front of students? ”

"Have you ever seen a fortune teller, am I so handsome? Besides, people's industries also have a strong threshold! Not everyone who wants to join can join casually! Teacher, I am not blind, I am not missing arms and legs, and I am not deaf or dumb, so I can't pass the threshold of their industry in terms of image! ”

"I can't say, you are capable, and your industry has admitted you exceptionally? Ha ha. ”

"! Do you still listen to the story? ”

"Listen!"

"Then shut up." Wang Erwu shifted his body and prepared to start telling the story......

"During the Warring States Period, there was a fortune-telling old man in Zhao State, called Gongsun Long, who looked very bumpy. Before he started the fortune telling industry, he looked for many jobs, but later rejected them because of image problems. Later, a builder finally took a fancy to him and asked him to move bricks, and his salary was paid on a daily basis, and his salary was higher than that of white-collar workers. But this guy's 30-year-old body and 60-year-old heart broke his leg on the second day of work, and the most shameless thing is that he will take revenge and seek compensation from the builder in the name of work-related injury, and the opening is 300,000! ”

Zhao Ling'er was stunned, "Three hundred thousand? Gold and silver? ”

"Alas, don't interject! I've converted it with you according to modern market conditions, I'm afraid you won't understand! It's more intuitive to say this, otherwise I would say classical Chinese? ”

"Okay, teacher, I was wrong, you continue." Zhao Ling'er lowered her head and said.

"The builder's hard-earned savings for several years were lost to Gongsun Long in this way, but after all, it was ill-gotten gains, and it was easy to be retributed! Sure enough, the day after Gongsun Long recovered from his injury, he met a porcelain bumper on the road, and the 300,000 yuan was not enough, and he was still in debt! ”

"Teacher, how do you feel that this ancient world is full of traps! This person's heart is too unpredictable, isn't it? ”

"You don't understand this, do you know what it means when people say that the ancient times are chaotic? That is to say, ancient times were very messy! ”

“……”

Later, by chance, Gongsun Long met the owner of a hotel, not only did the boss not dislike him for being ugly and having a bad character, but admired him very much and hired him with a high salary! Since then, Gongsun Long's job has been to constantly wander in front of other restaurants. As you can imagine, the other restaurants closed down, and only one became the largest hotel chain in the area. ”

"It may be that the time has come, after Gongsun Long dug his first pot of gold, he began to do pyramid schemes! With his three-inch incorruptible tongue, rampant throughout the Zhao Kingdom! Of course, illegal deeds are not the way out after all, and in the end he failed to escape the punishment of the law! All the money was confiscated by the government. ”

"Teacher, is this ancient law in charge of people or money? How does it sound like it was legally robbed? Zhao Ling'er interjected.

"What are you doing with nothing to study that? Idle? Listen quietly and don't interrupt my thoughts! Wang Erwu scolded twice and continued, "After being released from the government, he has done pyramid schemes, and he already has supreme eloquence, and his kung fu of secretly changing concepts and reversing black and white has reached its peak. So, he began to set up a fortune telling stall on the border of Zhao. ”

"Why at the border?" Zhao Ling'er is really a problem girl.

"Nonsense! You can often meet foreigners at the border! It's easier to cheat foreigners' money! ”

"Those countries in the Warring States period are also considered foreign countries?"

"Nonsense! Absolutely! ”

“……”

Later, when Gongsun Long was telling fortunes, he met Zhao Sheng, the son of King Zhao Huiwen of Zhao State, that is, Pingyuan Jun at that time. Pingyuanjun and Gongsun Long hit it off at first sight, and thought to themselves, this person is simply at the level of a lecturer, and he must make good use of it! So they took him home as a guest. ”

"So sloppy? Is this Plains King lacking eyes? Zhao Linger was disdainful.

"Are you a chat app for customer service? How many windows do you always pop up to ask questions? ”

"I'm sorry, teacher, you continue to ......"

"It didn't take long for the horses in the Zhao area to be infected with a virulent infectious disease, resulting in the death of a large number of war horses. There were many war horses in the Qin State, and in order to strictly prevent this plague from entering the Qin State, the Qin State posted a notice at the Hangu Pass: "All horses of the Zhao State cannot enter the customs." "It just so happens that Pingyuanjun is going to take Gongsun Long and his party to ride abroad on horseback! He was stopped by the security guards. ”

The soldier said, "I'm sorry! There are documents at the customs, you can pass the customs, but the horse can't! ”

Gongsun Long argued: "I'm riding a white horse!" It's not a horse, so why can't you pass it? ”

The soldier said, "Are you stupid for me?" Isn't a white horse also a horse? ”

Gongsun Long asked rhetorically: "Is my Gongsun Long a dragon?" Then why haven't I gone to heaven yet? Why don't you go shoulder to shoulder with the sun? ”

The soldier was stunned, but still insisted: "According to the regulations, no matter whether it is a white horse or a black horse, as long as it is a horse of Zhao State, it cannot enter the customs." ”

Gongsun Long said: "If your mount is a white horse, and someone else borrows it for a day, and the next day it gives you a black horse, telling you that it is all the same, and it is all a horse anyway, can you agree?" ”

The soldier was at a loss: "This ...... Uh, can't agree. ”

Gongsun Long: "On the other hand, if someone says that a horse is equal to a white horse, or a horse is equal to a black horse, doesn't that mean that a white horse is equal to a black horse?" Is a seahorse equal to a hippopotamus? White Dragon Horse Equals Grass Mud Horse? Is that right? If so, silver is also money, and gold is also money, and if I give you a tael of silver for a tael of gold, will you cry? It's all money anyway, can you accept it? ”

The more the soldier listened, the more dazed he became, and he was dizzy by Gongsun Long's high-minded talk, like falling into the clouds, and he didn't know how to answer, so he had no choice but to let Pingyuanjun, Gongsun Long and Baima all pass the test.

"What is this? Strong words! And during the Warring States Period, who knew Bailongma and Tang Seng? Envisioning the future? Zhao Linger retorted.

"That's right! This is called sophistry! The story of the famous "White Horse Not Horse...... So, what you just said is not logical, the real logic is very profound, do you want the teacher to give you a lecture? ”

Zhao Ling'er nodded......
