Hearing that Lu Ming had his own unique views on the people, Lei Shaoqing couldn't help but make a gesture of please, indicating that he was listening.

Lu Ming didn't sell it, and said at the moment: "I think the people are the most terrible, the most ignorant, but the most simple and kind group in the world. ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"You have seen the terrible power of the people before, when they converge into a force, even if you are the lord of the city, or you are the third gate, you have no way to take them, you can only explain and appease them with a pleasant face, to put it bluntly, you are afraid, afraid of provoking a civil uprising. A small popular uprising will cause social unrest, and a large popular uprising may overthrow the entire dynasty, and you don't have the strength to overthrow a dynasty, let alone Lord Zhang, only the people! So aren't they scary?

They are said to be ignorant because most of them listen to the wind and rain, and have no judgment for themselves. You said that Huang Tianjun colluded with the Shatian Sect and he would believe it, and you said that the Wuliang Pavilion colluded with the Shatian Sect and he would believe it, and even as long as you increase the intensity of rumors, it is not impossible to say that your Famous Sword Villa has an affair with the Shatian Sect! ”

"Brother Lu, I don't dare to agree with this, my name Sword Villa has been fighting against evil demons like the Heaven Covering Sect since its establishment, and several of my uncles have also died tragically at the hands of the Heaven Covering Sect, so it is absolutely impossible to say that we have an affair with the Heaven Covering Sect, this kind of joke is still not good!"

"I'm sorry, I just made an analogy, and I didn't mean to slander Mingjian Villa, and we have always admired your village." Seeing that Lei Shaoqing's face was a little unsightly, Lu Ming hurriedly apologized, he patronized the example, and almost forgot that the person in front of him was a terminal patient with "family honor cancer", and it was obviously a little inappropriate to talk about the famous Sword Villa directly.

However, Lu Ming was actually a little disappreciative in his heart, and Lei Shaoqing was still a little too simple in his eyes. Obviously, he hasn't encountered the matter of three people becoming tigers, and he doesn't understand what the pressure of public opinion is, even if you are a congenital master, you may not be able to withstand the crusade of the people.

Especially in the era when Lu Ming lived, incidents of online violence and Internet rumors emerged one after another, and countless keyboard warriors and mouth cannon heroes rose one after another. Today said that Zhang San and Wang Erhua were going to get married, and tomorrow it was revealed that Wang Erhua was pregnant unmarried, and the day after tomorrow said that the child was not Zhang San's, and finally concluded that Zhang San liked his dog. It's obviously a nonsense thing like this, but there are still a group of ignorant people chasing after it, and in the end, the country has no choice but to introduce relevant laws to regulate it. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg, and the use of public opinion to build momentum, test pressure, and moral kidnapping is even more numerous, and in the end it has become that no matter who you are, no matter what you do, either you are extremely strong in your heart and can withstand any verbal attacks and harassment, or you have to bow your head to this kind of force and be a slave and cannon fodder of public opinion, I have to say that this is a great sadness.

"Brother Lu, I know you are unintentional, please continue."

Returning to the conversation between the two again, Lei Shaoqing still wanted to listen to Lu Ming's point of view, he always felt that Lu Ming's perception and ideas about things were different from those old and old-fashioned around him.

"Okay." Lu Ming nodded: "Terrible and ignorant are over, let me talk about why they are the most simple and kind." These two points seem to be the opposite of what was said above, but they are not. The simplicity of the people is innate, and since ancient times, they have not cared about what the current emperor's surname is, and who the current prime minister is. They only care about food, clothing, housing, transportation, tea, rice, oil and salt related to themselves, as long as they can meet their most basic food and clothing, so that they can gain a sense of security and identity, then even if you force him to rebel against them, no one will go, what they will do is to be down-to-earth and try to live happily.

When it comes to kindness, the kindness of the people is often from the heart, they will not only sincerely help everyone they love, even in the face of strangers they can also reach out in time to help. There is a saying in our place that when one side is in trouble, all sides support, unite as one, and tide over the difficulties together, and this is what it says. In the era in which he lived, many places had suffered natural and man-made disasters, but often the more this time, the more you can see the hearts of the people. The more you can feel the precious shining points among the people, so Lu Ming has been telling himself that there are more kind people in this world after all.

"When one side is in trouble, all sides support... That's a good point. But Brother Lu, I still don't quite understand what you mean. You will say that the people are terrible, and then you say that they are kind, which one should I believe? ”

"It's not that you should believe that, it's how you should do it!" Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder and said in a teachable tone: "Why did the people become terrible, and why are they so ignorant to listen to all kinds of gossip, in the final analysis, you have not done your work in the three gates and the imperial court. If you had explained the entire process and details of the case to the people in detail in the name of the alliance between the three sects and the imperial court at the beginning, I believe that there would never have been such a big mess. The ignorance of the people is reflected in their blind obedience to not knowing the truth of the incident, but they are not stupid, and if what you say is true, they are definitely willing to listen and make their own judgment. So don't look at the people with hostility or horror, many of their behaviors depend largely on the attitudes and practices of your people. There is another sentence for you in our hometown, Jun, Zhouye; People, water too. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat.

By the way, one more thing I want to remind you is that your sensitivity to public opinion is really poor. Before the case ended, several different versions of the story came out, and all of them were negative news about the Infinite Pavilion, and it was clear that they wanted to kill the Infinite Pavilion. This situation intensified in the following days, and the people were completely guided by these gossip before a series of violent activities began. Don't you think it's strange? ”

"You're saying that someone is behind the scenes, and they want to die in the Infinite Pavilion?! Could it be them? ”

Seeing that Lei Shaoqing had finally reacted, Lu Ming nodded solemnly and looked into the distance.

。。。。。

The Lord's Mansion of Bianzhou City.

Today is the day of the departure of Elder Di Hengqing of the Furious Flame Valley and Di Lie, the Lord of the Young Valley, as the parent official of Bianzhou City, Zhang Fang naturally wants to see off the two of them at a big banquet in his mansion.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food. Master Zhang, who was not very strong in alcohol, staggered to the uncle and nephew, raised his wine glass and said, "Elder Qing, come, I will give you another glass." I hope that this Bianzhou city will become more prosperous under our joint governance in the future! ”

Elder Qing smiled and picked up the wine glass, but did not drink it, but pressed one hand on Zhang Fang's hand holding the wine glass, and said: "Lord Zhang, this is not true, isn't there still an immeasurable pavilion in this Bianzhou City, and we still shouldn't overstep the rules in this city." ”

"Humph!" Hearing this, Zhang Fang suddenly snorted coldly and said: "This time it's just a matter of selling three doors and one face, Wuliang Pavilion, hum, they are all difficult to protect themselves now." I heard that the young lady of their family has sold all the belongings of the family, leaving only a few old women to live in the old house, how can they protect the stability of this Bianzhou City. Next year, I will petition the Imperial Court, take his name, and implore the Valley of Fury to preside over the situation here! ”

This time, Elder Qing did not speak, but happily drank the glass of wine in his hand.
