Chapter 80 The Masses
Think, Dagon, try to think.
When Dagon is in the middle of the soul, he doesn't have to worry about whether his body will delay rest. Therefore, he feels that he has plenty of time and it is easier to eliminate tension and urgent emotions. He began to think about taking his own problems as a prerequisite, re-examine the information he currently has, and aims at taking himself as his own role, and think about how to focus on the same problem in various aspects.
This way of thinking comes from his father. The important responsibility of a weapon master is to master the use of weapons and teach them to others. Then, you not only need to understand and do it by yourself, but also consider how to let others learn it from others. Everyone has different physical fitness, different martial arts foundation, understanding, concentration and hard work, including personality, and must teach according to their aptitude. You cannot let a Jiangu tribe who rushes up at any time learn to use a soft-sting sword? Don’t he use it as a whip? You cannot let people with slow reactions and stiff bodies practice a long-handled battle axe, so it’s better to use a stick.
This method of thinking was proposed by Reed. Although this "spirit" was very proud and had no fear of God in his words, he respected Tomund very much and believed that the weapon master had many advantages. He commented: "If the Jiangu people mastered this method of thinking and used it anytime and anywhere, the Jiangu people would have developed long ago and there was no need to shrink into the corners of the world."
Thinking about others and criticizing yourself, everything is for progress. Dagon calmed down from his hostility to Borge Mafeng and his anger towards the whole thing, and he could start to think again. After thinking for a while, he had an idea in his mind, but his eyebrows were still tangled. Dagon tentatively said to Reid: "It seems that Jelos wants to send me away?"
"Well, you guessed it right." Reed nodded: "Besides asking the Chamber of Commerce to come forward, Geros must have other plans, but he just can't let you participate. Why do you think this is?"
"I am not a caravan, but just a passenger he wants to transport. The caravan is responsible for my safety, but this is only one aspect." Dagon thought, "He doesn't understand my abilities. He knows very well that the Jiangu people are just a grown-up at the age of 60. They are worried that I cannot comply with his plan, so they simply ruled out me. Is that true?"
"He felt the danger and didn't want you to die, so he wanted to coax you away first." Reed said with a serious expression: "Let you think from the perspective of others. You can't just consider utilitarian aspects, but also consider human feelings. People, life, and the world are not pure martial arts, there is a soul in it, you have to think more comprehensively."
Dagon nodded vigorously: "I understand, thank you for your advice."
"Then keep thinking," Reed said, "You're only less than halfway."
Dagon simply walked up in the middle of the soul and paced against the fire circle. After thinking about it, Dagon gradually had some new ideas. They were just faint starlight at first, but after they were connected, they gradually formed clues, slowly opening up the fog, allowing him to greatly expand his horizon.
"The threat of the Chamber of Commerce is difficult to succeed." Dagon clapped his hands and came to this conclusion: "Borge and Geros had a face-to-face conversation for a while and knew that they were from the Golden Dog Chamber of Commerce. I think since Borge could bring up a team to attack Baima Town, since his target never leaves just by robbing, he must know how to become the lord."
Reed nodded and said, "By the way, you are now on the right path."
"Borge can speak in front of the elves' Governor. They may have had a long time contact, so he is very clear about the elves' management routines and the elves' tolerance to the lord. The Chamber of Commerce learns elves, so Borge must know that after taking away the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce will put pressure on him, using the elves' method of attacking individual problem forces. From a utilitarian perspective, Borge does not need to get into evil with the Chamber of Commerce. At present, he has not heard that his actions are a trend of hatred, so he probably wants to make money, so he cannot do without the Chamber of Commerce, and it is not good for his safety to get into evil Chamber of Commerce."
"The best solution is to find a group of actors to play robbers, whether in their own towns or in other towns, even if you spend some money to hire actors, spend some money to fool the elf governor, it is not embarrassing. Even if you discuss with Geros and perform a play, it is no big deal. The duke of humans and the earls still have to look at the elf governor's face. He is just a baron. But the problem lies here, and he gave Geros a knife without hesitation."
Dagon looked at Reid with his eyes. At this moment, he had a sense of confidence and wisdom in his eyes. "I figured it out. The most abnormal thing in the whole thing is this knife. This knife actually shows that he doesn't want the caravan to leave alive, and he doesn't want to trade at all. There is only one situation where he doesn't need an actor or can't find an actor, that is, the Elf Governor wants the robber to die!"
"Borge cannot let the townspeople do this. The best way is to find passers-by whom the town doesn't want to do. The Golden Dog Caravan just happened to run into it. He couldn't reach a deal with Jerous on this matter, so he killed people and established his authority, frightened the caravans, took them back first, and then dealt with it after they were controlled. The only possibility that those people are still alive is that the Elves Governor wants to see the robbers to rectify the Dharma on the spot... It may not be the Governor, but it must be the people around the Governor who are coming."
"As long as you know the itinerary of the governor, you will know when the caravan will die. They probably don't know their fate, or they have been controlled by iron chains and shackles, and they can't resist. Even... Borge may even coax them and persuade them to cooperate with him to act in a play, making them think they are actors. When they are executed, they block their mouths, and then..."
"As for the Chamber of Commerce, it can be said that it was a misunderstanding and had been let go, but there were really robbers who killed the caravans. They returned some of the caravan's items to the Chamber of Commerce, pretending to be some of the stolen goods found when chasing the robbers. As long as he was a lord, he could always have a way to deceive him. The Chamber of Commerce still wanted money, and it might be only money."
After Dagon finished speaking, he asked himself if what he said was right, but he didn't need Reed's affirmation, and he was confident. Reed applauded and said, "You can analyze this step, which means you have really grown up. In fact, there is another clue that can also draw the same conclusion. You can also use it as a thinking and elevating question in your spare time."
"What? You said words that I don't understand..." Dagon scratched his beard and began to worry again: "But knowing these situations, what can I do if I can't solve them?"
Reed smiled, stretched out two fingers and said, "You have completed the basic thinking, and I can tell you two other things about the upgraded version."
"And? Did I have anything else to expect?"
"Of course there is. If you think anyone can think about it completely without missing any details, then you are a fool; if you think that person is you, then you are crazy or proud of yourself." Reed said: "These two things do not require you to think about, but the reason I told you. In fact, I have been teaching you knowledge and skills, and have not told you the reason."
"Does it count as if you think from the perspective of others?"
"The source of that truth is your father Tormond, not me. In fact, good truths can be promoted more, at least to make thinking and action more comprehensive." Reed said: "The first truth: If you want to do good things, you cannot do without strength. No matter how wonderful or perfect the ideas in your mind are, you must be able to implement them in action and reality, otherwise it is a fantasy. No matter when, you must develop and solve problems in development."
"The second reason is that your ability is limited, you must believe in the power of the group...the power of the group. You think you are very capable, but what about facing dozens of people? You are also a quasi-weapon master, at least in terms of knowledge and preparation, and you must know that when the potential threat exceeds your actual possible ability, you will almost die when you participate in the war. Although Jerus did not want you to participate, you don't need to learn to exclude others like him. You must know that wisdom often comes from the group... Among ordinary people, you must learn to trust everyone, mobilize everyone, make your friends and companions more and more, and make enemies less and fewer. This is the mystery of all struggles."
"I understand." Dagon pulled his beard and thought quietly for a long time before saying, "I remember that these two are indeed very important principles. I will remember to use them to solve problems when I encounter them."
"The truth is all big truths, and solving problems depends on actual operations," said Reed.
Dagon nodded, and now he was really not panicked at all. "Jeros doesn't want me to participate, in addition to taking good care of me, because he doesn't know me and doesn't know what I can do. When my ability can offset the risk of my participation in the action, or the benefits far exceed the risk, he will not object, and will even ask me to participate because he cares very much about his partners."
Reed nodded and said, "So when you wake up, you will go to talk to him?"
"Yes, I will talk carefully, tell him what I think of, what I can do and what I want to do." Dagon smiled slightly, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "I didn't pay any attention before, and I didn't expect that Geros had spoken before Toby, perhaps just to downplay this matter and reduce my worries. Toby is a big mouth, and sometimes he will leak information accidentally. And... I am so ashamed that Tess and Toby have already figured it out, knowing that the caravan's companions would not die before the Elves Governor came, so he agreed to go to bed first. I also felt that they had not done their best, and who knew that they were doing their best."
"Don't do this. You've just grown up - although you're already sixty years old. Jian Gucheng has always been closed, and it's like a cradle. You've just left there and have little experience."
"It turns out that people outside have so many ideas, they are so smart..." Dagon clenched his fist and said, "But I will definitely catch up and solve these problems in progress."
"It's not just about solving the problem, you must surpass them. It's all, and it's each of them." Reed said: "I have this confidence. Do you have it... You shouldn't have it, so just take it easy."
