Chapter 859: Inferring Cause From Effect

"What? Danger?" She looked at me curiously, "Do you want to confess to me?"

"Me!" I sighed helplessly and said, "Don't you always want to know what I am doing? Now I will tell you."

"Oh...?" She moved a stool and sat down, then looked at me expectantly, "Tell me quickly."

I really need a trustworthy teammate now, and Jiang Ruoxue is a good candidate.

Although I don't know what the "echo" of "karma" is used for, at least I have someone with whom we can discuss countermeasures.

Jiang Ruoxue's way of thinking is completely opposite to mine, so maybe she can actually come up with some clever ideas.

So I told her what happened to me in a few words. I told her that I was selected by a "zodiac" to become a teammate, and the ultimate goal of that "zodiac" was to overthrow the "apex" here.

Next I took out the piece of paper and showed her the three problems Aries had left me.

"Do you have any idea?" I asked.

Jiang Ruoxue held the note and studied the three sentences, her expression was no different from mine.

These three things cannot be accomplished by me or just the two of us.

"Do these three things have to be done?" she murmured to herself. "Is this why I'm here?"

"It's a must for me, but not for you." I shook my head, "If you have any ideas, you can tell me. It's okay if you don't have any ideas. Or you think I'm too dangerous now and you want to I don’t have any problem with leaving.”

"Who did you learn this way of chatting from?" Jiang Ruoxue asked angrily, "Even if you had an idea, you made it impossible for you to think."

"I..." I lowered my head silently after hearing this, "I'm sorry, I rarely communicated with others before, so I liked to say all the ugly things first."

"Change it when you talk to me in the future." Jiang Ruoxue looked at the note and waved her hand nonchalantly, "I have an idea about your question..."

"What's the idea?" I raised my eyebrows instantly, "Tell me quickly."

"Please."

"ah……?"

Jiang Ruoxue smiled evilly at me: "Did you see that? This is the way good sisters talk. From now on, you can use it with anyone, but you can't use it with me."

"Okay... okay." I stroked my hair awkwardly, "Then just tell me."

"Then aren't you going to beg me?" Jiang Ruoxue looked at the ceiling pretending to be lofty, "It doesn't matter if you don't beg me, you can just call me dad."

"You..." I couldn't get angry anymore, so I slapped her on the arm. Unexpectedly, I made her laugh.

"Haha! That's it!" Jiang Ruoxue said, "If you use a lot of skills and negotiation techniques when talking to me, you may lose me as a friend. In front of me, you can say whatever you want and do whatever you want. . This is not disrespectful to me, but a show of intimacy."

Only now did I know what Jiang Ruoxue meant - yes, I always carefully guard against everyone, even those who are ready to share their sincerity with me.

I always thought that I had learned a lot of knowledge, but I never expected that Jiang Ruoxue would need to teach me even the simplest interpersonal communication.

"Zhichun." Jiang Ruoxue pointed to the note in front of her and regained her serious expression, "You always say that I can't figure out the logical relationship. Now you can try using my way of thinking."

"Your way of thinking...?" I lowered my head and thought for a moment, "You mean "from effect to cause"? "

"That's right." Jiang Ruoxue nodded, "You have been thinking about these three questions for so long and you still can't figure out the "cause". Why not try directly from the "effect". "

"I... don't quite understand."

I shook my head. For me, Jiang Ruoxue's way of thinking was too abstract, and I couldn't use it freely in a short time.

"You think about it this way..." Jiang Ruoxue thought for a few seconds and then slowly said, "What if a few years later, there is such a team in the "Land of Ends", and they go around obstructing others from collecting "Tao". In order to let others People are desperate and do crazy things, and each of them is a strong "response"... Why is this? "

"ah……?"

Is this "from effect to cause"...?

But Jiang Ruoxue's suggestion did give me a very novel idea, yes... If there is such a team operating in "The End", what is the reason?

What are these people's motivations?

"That's not right." I frowned and said, "There is one more condition..."

"What?"

"Because what we are doing is very dangerous, these people need a way to avoid being eliminated by other forces." I thought for a while and said, "So these people should be "fighting alone"...even they are not mutually exclusive. Understand, this is absolute safety. Even if a person is caught, even if he is beaten to death, he has no idea where his other teammates are. "

"I see, this is more thoughtful." Jiang Ruoxue nodded, then raised her head and asked, "Then think about it... what is the purpose of this team?"

I thought quickly along Jiang Ruoxue's train of thought, yes... this team has no way to cooperate, so what they need is not team spirit...

But some other very abstract things, what they need is...

Belief.

A "faith" that does not need to be cooperated with other people, is implanted in the heart, and is enough to fight alone.

Just like the emperors in ancient times who were mortals but called themselves "Son of Heaven".

In this way, those who met the "Son of Heaven" would shout "Long live" and fight for the "Son of Heaven" at critical moments.

Even if these people have never seen the "Son of Heaven", it is the same.

This is the power of faith.

As long as you can make up a lie for them to believe, you can naturally let these people work hard in various places.

But what lies should I make up...?

"Wait..." I reached out and slightly supported my forehead, feeling that my thinking was a bit narrow, "There is no need for lies at all... What I need to tell them is the "truth"..."

"Ah?" Jiang Ruoxue turned her head and looked at me, "Have you thought about it? The "cause" of this matter. "

"Thanks to you..." I nodded, "I thought about it, this is the most suitable path for me. I don't need to form a team at all, but I need to tell them the "truth" of this place after meeting a strong person... As long as I collect 3,600 "Tao", everything will start over again. In this way, they will naturally fall into despair! They will also actively interfere with those who are collecting the Tao for this reason. At some point in the future, as long as I gather these people with the same purpose together...then they will be the strongest "team."
