Chapter 48: The Oldest Form of Polygraphy

Bai Shannuo didn't know what was going on outside, but he was dealing with something as if he was slow.

For example, what those behind the scenes are going to do now, there is a way to deal with this matter in the shortest possible time.

After all, when the people finished the work and they appeared again, the daylily would be cold, so he could only try to see if he could improve some efficiency.

If all the traces left behind are obscured, it is useless for him to have a thousand ways.

Bai Shannuo thought so, and suddenly frowned, because he thought of a good way that was not very good, and that was to review all these people.

These people here are not talking about those outsiders, but about those who are the monks of Qingyangmen.

He remembered hearing a story in his previous life when he was very young.

The story goes that the oldest lie detector in the world was in the portico of Notre Dame in Rome and Greece in Italy.

The polygraph was carved from a single piece of marble, and was in the form of a human head, complete facial features, and even hair and beard.

It is said that if you put your hand in it, you will be found to be lying, and if you lie, you are likely to have your hand bitten off.

It sounds scary, but it's just a legend.

An important step in a lie detector is to put your hand into the mouth of a human head to draw conclusions, so this oldest polygraph is also known as the "mouth of truth".

The legend of the lie detector has made it the focus of many people's attention, and the crowd who came to see it wanted to see if it was really as fearful as the legend says.

In fact, friends who have seen the lie detector say that it is not so scary, the human head is just a manhole cover-like carving, and people naturally internalize the legend in their hearts, and believe that this can test the true meaning of love.

And there are similar legends in his hometown.

For example, there were once three spies who came to a man's army, and this person knew that there were spies in his army, but he couldn't pick them out.

At this time, his advisors gave him an idea, and the content was probably like this.

In this way, we will generously tell them that we already know that there are spies who have infiltrated the area, and not only do we know that you have infiltrated, but we also have a way of distinguishing you.

I have a magical treasure now, and now I put this treasure in a box with a hole in the top of the box, and now you people put your hands in this box and touch my treasure.

This treasure of mine will leave some strange marks on those spies, and nothing will happen to normal people, so you don't have to worry, my magic weapon will not go wrong, as long as you come here to test it, the truth will be revealed soon.

After the strategist finished speaking, he instructed all the soldiers under his command to touch the box one by one.

And although all the soldiers thought it was a little incredible, since this was the arrangement of his lord's master, they all obediently did so, and obediently touched the treasure in this box.

And those spies saw that the prestige of this strategist was so high, they must have something extraordinary, so the treasure of this strategist might really exist, so they didn't dare to be careless, so they could only try it with trepidation.

And at this time, there happened to be a spy who thought it was clever and came up with a brilliant idea, since people said that it would only show its mark when it was touched, and as long as you didn't do anything, wouldn't it be a problem?

When the other two people heard it, yes, as long as they didn't touch it, there would definitely be no mark, and those who touched it didn't have anything, so wouldn't everyone be the same?

The three of them exchanged their opinions, and felt that this method was indeed feasible, and then they really did it, and when they finished doing this, they found that their hands did not have any marks, which made him very happy.

And after all the people had touched the treasure, the advisor asked everyone to stretch out their hands to see what was the difference between those around them and their own.

These three people stretched out their hands very relieved, wanting everyone to see that their hands were fine, and they were the same as everyone's.

But when they really waited for others to stretch out their own hands, they found that they were wrong, and they were wrong, because when they stretched out their hands, they found that except for the hands of the three of them, the hands of others were black.

And the three of them were naturally brought to the lord.

The three of them were crazy and had to explain, saying that the three of them were loyal and there was no problem, and that there was something wrong with this treasure, because at that time the mastermind said that only spies would be marked, and at this moment so many people were marked.

That guy, the crying is called a miserable, that is a true feeling, that is called a brave and loyal liver, I have to say that the acting skills of these people are indeed very good, even the lord thinks that several of them have been wronged, and the soldiers below also think that there is a problem with this treasure.

Then the counsellor stood up and told these men, that you had been tricked, and that what was in the box was not a treasure at all, but just a piece of black charcoal, and that all those who touched it would have their hands blackened.

And all those who have ghosts in their hearts, who think that they will have a mark when they touch it, will not touch that treasure at all.

Therefore, in the army present, everyone's hands were black, and only these three people's hands did not have any marks.

When others heard it, oh, it turned out that it was like this, there was no treasure in that box at all, just a piece of black charcoal, and these people didn't touch that treasure because they had ghosts in their hearts, so they were different from them, so their hands were black.

And when the three fine workers heard this, they knew that they had fallen for someone else's trick, but now it was too late to say anything, and they had already become a prisoner of others.

So to sum up, Bai Shannuo's world had this kind of advanced psychological game a long, long time ago, and what Bai Shannuo needs to do today is nothing else, but to put this psychological game in this fantasy world again, and see if he can blow up a few fish.
