"Liu Xu, would you like to join my library?" That night, Liu Xu was called in front of the curator, and at the same time, he found that the curator had a rare and extremely cautious expression.

"A library line?" Liu Xu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Curator, I don't know anything about this." ”

"Then I'll tell you!" The curator nodded and said, "The library is an institution dedicated to the collection and protection of all forbidden books. 212 years ago, that is, in the 88th year after the Great Break, a huge protest movement suddenly broke out among human beings at that time, demanding that the writers' association should not force the promotion of novels, nor force readers to read novels, let alone let them read novels at all times except for eating and farming, and the most unbearable thing is to read those routine novels whose plots are just repeated and repeated, and do not give them the opportunity to refuse to watch them. ”

"It was a very dangerous time for humanity, and there was a reflection on the outside, and there was such a scene of violence on the inside. In the end, the Writers' Association and the world government had to make a compromise. The order to stop compelling readers to read novels was announced, and that no human being should be compelled to read any novel for any reason at any other time, except for literary novels. ”

"But as a result of the lifting of the ban, the number of contracted authors began to decline rapidly, and humanity began to look for entertainment outside of fiction in large numbers, and video games were born, which are by far the only entertainment independent of novels."

"Although the birth of video games has created a large category of game novels, you also know that games are so much happier than novels. The most direct result of this is that the novel loses a large number of readers. At its most exaggerated, almost all human beings went to play video games, and the number of signed authors born in 20 years was not as good as the number of signed authors born in the previous year, and humanity had to give up a lot of territory, and finally lost nearly 2/3 of the world. ”

"The game is misleading!"

"After that, the game you saw in the historical materials was purged, all the games were forcibly banned, all the protesters were directly imprisoned in the labor camp, with the cooperation of the Writers' Association, the world government, and all the contracted authors, the game was completely suppressed, the novel returned to the main position, all the rebels were completely purged, and the number of signed authors finally began to rise steadily, and finally mankind ushered in the super prosperity of the twelve gods."

"In order to avoid the same situation from happening again, the predecessors restructured the world, put all reading on the Internet, and at the same time strictly controlled the Internet, repeatedly censored the game, and instilled in all human beings from the beginning of reading books the concept that reading novels is to save the world, and reading novels is the destiny of all human beings, etc., trying to fundamentally solve the previous problems."

But this kind of behavior has naturally ushered in a lot of opposition, and many so-called sociologists, educators, etc. have jumped out, saying that this is imprisoning human thoughts, this is to destroy the future of mankind, and so on. As a result, many suggested that a second purge should be initiated. ”

"However, in view of the various evil consequences of the previous Great Purge, we decided to use a more moderate approach, while sending all the so-called scholars who spoke out to them in labor camps to read novels for the rest of their lives. At the same time, he began to destroy all non-fiction books on the market. ”

"Didn't they say that it was a prison of the human mind? Then simply don't think, without thought, naturally there will be no imprisonment! In an extremely calm tone, the curator told Liu Xu all the creepy history more than 200 years ago.

Although this history is also mentioned in the books in the library, Liu Xu roughly guessed the process of this period of history through the mutual verification of various books, but this is the first time to hear the entire history completely.

"So, our library is in the same vein as to protect these books, protect these ideas, and give mankind a future, so we firmly guard the people around the library?" Liu Xu asked tentatively.

"No!" The curator shook his head, "We are the ones who implemented this policy in the first place, reading and sorting all the books, finding the demagogic books, and then confiscating them and burning them all. Chase down those who dare to write forbidden works and send them to the most dangerous labor camps. ”

"We strictly seek out and destroy all forbidden things, and those who have died in our hands have tens of thousands of signatories who dare to rebel against the policy, and millions of ordinary human beings, and we have even destroyed three cities in the end, completely destroying the last and stubborn people from the soul."

"In those days, we were called the executioners of ideas, the demons of the times, the destroyers of the future of mankind, the worst evil in the world, and the people who could never be forgiven."

"You see 100 books in this library, which means that there are 1,000 books that have been completely destroyed, and there is not even a single copy of paper left. As for why these 100 books have survived, it is not because we have good intentions, but because we have left some samples to educate young people who are new to the library line, and tell them how to distinguish prohibited books. ”

"In order to find out who is most hidden, our people must also understand their minds, possess their minds, and then blend in with them, and eventually pull them out one by one. Or throw them into a labor camp, or directly correct the Fa on the spot! ”

"Until now, the main task of the library is still to find those ideological thugs and then resolutely suppress them, rather than guarding the library."

"The library is just a base for our activities, when Jingqing City was first established, there were at least hundreds of people in this library, and under the command of the director, everyone in Jingqing City was monitored."

"By the way, you're not curious, why are there so many empty rooms under the library?"

"That's because these rooms were not originally used to put books, but to monitor and interrogate those ideological thugs, take the room where you live now, it is an execution room back then, at least more than 300 people died there, although more than half of them are innocent, but they did die in that room!"

The curator's tone was still calm, but Liu Xu's body was trembling, and his feelings were the truth of the library, and he was the brocade guard of this world.

No, Jinyiwei is not as crazy as them, I'm afraid it's not Jinyiwei, a terrifying machine that the east and west factories make do with.

"How? Do you dare to join our library? The curator asked lightly, Liu Xu really hesitated for a long time this time before asking, "Then why is there no one in the library now?" ”

"Of course, because our ancestors worked very well and thoroughly, and now there are very few thought thugs!" The curator grinned and said, "But I have always had another guess, that is, because only people in the library line will have the right to access these forbidden books, so when the ideological mob outside is wiped out, our library will become the place with the most ideological mobs in the world." ”

"So then the library has become more and more benevolent, more and more kind, more and more magnanimous, and more and more rigid to the library, unwilling to let any of the books in it be harmed, we are the destroyers here, but now we have become the protectors here, don't you think it's very ridiculous?"

"It's not funny at all!" Liu Xu shook his head, "I don't want to evaluate whether the ancestors are right or wrong, but the current library is undoubtedly correct." For the sake of the future of humanity, these books are indeed not in existence at present. ”

"But for the sake of the future of mankind, we must protect these books to the death, and not let them disappear and be destroyed."

"You thought thug!" The curator scolded, and then threw a pamphlet to Liu Xu and said, "Actually, you don't have a choice, I have already reported your name, and at the same time, the headquarters has also approved it, from now on, you are the deck cleaner of the library." ”

"Deck cleaner?" Liu Xu showed a blank expression.

"That's right, Deck Cleaner, that's the nickname we get in the library lineage, when there was an important thought thug who, with his students, escaped to a cruise ship, thinking he could get away from us, and that's a joke."

"It's just that this ship was the car of a great god author at that time, who blamed us for soiling his deck, and kept forcing us to clean his deck, and it took three years to wash it, so the deck cleaner became the nickname of almost all of us, and later even we used this nickname, after all, the deck cleaner is much better than any orphan for life!"
