Real Cthulhu Running Game - #2283 - Chapter 2225: subconscious influence
Chapter 2225 Subconscious Influence
Obviously, those who can afford to raise thin dogs in this martial arts module must be either rich or noble!
So if a dog suddenly appears near the convoy, it means that its former owner may have encountered something unexpected, because the possibility of Dahuang running away on his own is very low. After all, it is also a medium-sized dog, and it still looks pretty good. Conspicuous, especially on this main road.
As a result, before Liu Xing could finish thinking, Xu Bin said: “Leader, do you think it is possible that this thin dog ran away on his own? Maybe its owner also camped nearby for the night, and then the thin dog ran away. Ran out with nothing to do? After all, although dogs are very loyal, some dogs are still very curious, and may have received hunting training, so this dog may have seen a hare or something in front of its eyes. He ran by, so he wanted to catch this rabbit on a whim, but ended up getting lost to our side?”
Liu Xing couldn’t help but was stunned, then nodded and said: “It is indeed possible, because this dog seems to be in pretty good condition. Even if it got lost, it was only in the past two days, and when it appeared in front of me When he was walking, he bit me because he was hungry. This may be because I smell like meat, otherwise it would not be able to accurately find me among so many people in the convoy, which also shows that it It hasn’t been long since I was hungry, so even though I’m a little bit hungry, I still have my own bottom line, that is, I have to eat well, and I can’t make do with it.”
“So if the owner of this dog is nearby, then I guess he has already started to send people out to search for the dog, because the dog was lost in the middle of the night. If he gets up at dawn and looks for it again, he will still be there. Might be found.”
At this point, Xu Bin looked at Liu Xing with a complicated look, and the meaning was naturally self-evident.
Of course Liu Xing understood what Xu Bin was thinking, and Liu Xing was indeed thinking about the same question, that is, if the owner of rhubarb really came to his door, should he tell the truth, or should he keep the rhubarb without conscience? Coming down?
If it were just an ordinary dog, Liu Xing would definitely send it back without hesitation, but the problem is that Rhubarb is very important to himself, no, it should be said to the entire alliance, because Rhubarb can make people in Wangxiangtai The trip went much smoother, and this cannot be exchanged for just two thousand taels of silver.
After all, some things cannot be measured with money.
Although thin dogs like rhubarb are clearly priced goods, the problem is that no one will sell thin dogs at this time, because thin dogs can also play a big role in the following main plot, so as long as Anyone with a discerning eye can see how powerful this thin dog can be!
This is no longer a question of money, and even if it is a question of money, Liu Xing feels that he may not be able to afford a thin dog even if he has spent all his money in the league, because from a comparison point of view, Liu Xing I feel that if I want to sell a thin dog at this time, I will feel like a conscientious seller if I raise the price to five thousand taels of silver. After all, the thin dog at this time is really worth the price.
So this is another test that the Cthulhu Running Group Game Hall has prepared for itself?
Or is it a matter of choice?
If I keep this thin dog without conscience, won’t my conscience hurt?
Liu Xing thought about it and felt that his conscience should not hurt!
That’s right, after entering the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, Liu Xing began to lower his conscience standards step by step, because in the Cthulhu Running Game Hall one must have a conscience, but one cannot have too much conscience. After all, this is a life-threatening game, so in order to survive, sometimes you can abandon everything. . . For example, Liu Xing had made up his mind a long time ago to do whatever it took to survive, but a lot of things happened later, which made Liu Xing change “by any means” to “make a choice.”
So for the sake of the entire alliance, it seems that I really need to keep this thin dog, because after passing this village, there will be no such store!
Looking at Liu Xing whose expression was constantly changing, Xu Bin also knew what Liu Xing was struggling with, so he followed the idea of ”Secretary has something to do” and said: “Leader, why don’t you leave this matter to me? Just pretend. It’s okay if you don’t know about this matter. If there is any problem, I will be responsible for it.”
Liu Xing knew what Xu Bin was talking about, which was to find a way to keep the thin dog in the convoy.
Should you do this?
Suddenly, Liu Xing became more entangled.
From a rational point of view, this thin dog must be kept, because its role is too great, and there is no way to obtain other thin dogs in a short time.
But, Liu Xing has been a good student since he was a child. Although he has told some small lies, it can only be said to be insignificant compared with this thin dog worth tens of millions.
So the more Liu Xing thought about it, the more he felt flustered, and his hands even started to tremble slightly!
Something is wrong!
Liu Xing instantly realized that something was wrong with him now. Although the choice of Dahuang was a test of his conscience, he would not have such a big reaction. You must know that he had never had such a big reaction even when he confessed to Tian Qing. Reaction!
Wait a minute, when did I confess to Tian Qing?
Liu Xing frowned, because he briefly recalled it and found that he really didn’t have the memory of confessing to Tian Qing in his mind. In short, in his memory, he and Tian Qing came together naturally, just like the two of them were after school. Then we got on the same bus, and when we got off the bus, our two hands were holding each other!
Just when Liu Xing was about to think deeply for a moment, Xu Bin spoke again, “Leader, why are you trembling? Could it be that this thin dog has rabies?!”
As soon as Xu Bin said this, Liu Xing couldn’t help but shuddered, and then said: “There is something wrong with this matter. Although I am not a bad person, I am not a good person either, so if the owner of this thin dog is looking for If he comes to the door and I don’t plan to return the dog, then although my conscience will be a little hard, I won’t be so panicked! Besides, I also have a reason to convince myself to do so, and that is this thin dog It’s very important to our league, and we won’t necessarily be able to find a replacement for it until the end of the mod!”
When Liu Xing was taking a course in the psychology major, he heard his teacher mention a point, that is, when ordinary people lie, they first find ways to deceive themselves because they want to deceive others, that is, they lie for themselves. Find a seemingly reasonable excuse. After all, if you can’t deceive yourself when you lie, how can you deceive others with this lie?
Then the teacher asked everyone to simulate one of the most common lying scenarios – being late. This is similar to a proposition composition, asking students to come up with a lie that they think is reasonable for being late, but this lie must be their first priority. The idea of time cannot be modified too much.
Ever since, Liu Xing heard some very common reasons for being late, which were nothing more than “I studied too late yesterday, so I slept a little longer”, “I didn’t look at the time when I had breakfast, so I ate a little slower”, “The first There were too many people on the bus, so I didn’t get on it.” “I met a friend on the road and chatted a little more.” “I was stopped by other teachers and was delayed a bit.”
After collecting these reasons for eating, the teacher asked people around these students to analyze their situations, and then everyone found that the reasons given by these students were consistent with their actual situations, that is, “because of study/entertainment” And often stay up late”, “eat slowly”, “need to take the bus to school” and “good at sociability”.
So these people all came up with convincing reasons to lie!
Of course, it all boils down to those three words – subconscious.
In order to alleviate the guilt and guilt caused by lying, people will find a convincing reason to lie. Just like today’s Liu Xing, if he really chooses to lie in order to get rhubarb, the reason he uses to comfort himself is that doing so will be of great benefit to the alliance, so that his conscience can survive, and he can also Can pass the responsibility to all players in the entire league.
So with such a set of thinking logic to support his lies, Liu Xing felt that it was impossible for him to have such a big reaction. So was it really because Dahuang had rabies?
Liu Xing quickly touched his head and found no bleeding spots. Therefore, the rhubarb bite only hurt him before, but it did not cause any bleeding.
So this cannot be rabies.
What’s more, the shortest incubation period of rabies is also measured in days, so it took less than an hour for me to get sick. . . It seems quite reasonable. After all, the basic settings of this martial arts module are somewhat different from the real world, so it is not impossible for a mutated version of acute rabies to appear.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing was so frightened that he immediately checked the character card. Fortunately, there was nothing new in the status bar.
“My character card does not have negative conditions such as rabies, so I can only think of one possibility now, that is, my current strangeness may be related to the mission given to me by the third prince. In other words, this The appearance of thin dogs is also a test that our team must face!”
Liu Xing took a deep breath and continued: “If the **** bear is testing our physical fitness, then this test should be for our psychological quality! And this test is also quite interesting. We should have There are two paths to choose from, and the difficulty of these two paths is very different! The first easy path is to return this thin dog to its owner, so that we should be able to get some thank you gifts, but these gifts are very important to us. It can only be said to be better than nothing, after all, we are not bad at all, unless these thank-you gifts are something practical.”
“As for the difficult road, that is to find a way to keep this thin dog in the convoy. That is, when the previous owner comes to us, we must lie and other methods to deceive them! But the Cthulhu Running Group The game lobby should also know that this kind of operation is nothing to us players, because this thin dog is really important to the alliance, so I am willing to bear the reputation of a liar for the alliance; so, Cthulhu ran The Tuan Game Hall started to play tricks on us, that is, when we want to lie, our bodies will have special reactions that are uncontrollable.”
Liu Xing closed his eyes after finishing speaking, and then tried to imagine how he would lie in the future.
“As expected, leader, you started to tremble again, and your ears started to turn red.”
Xu Bin took a breath of cold air, shook his head and said, “It seems that you can’t show up at this time, Alliance Leader, so Alliance Leader, please see if I have the same symptoms now.”
Liu Xing touched his ears after opening his eyes and found that his ears were indeed a little hot.
Xu Bin in front of him had just closed his eyes when he started to act out a sentence in the Chinese textbook – the two sides are fighting, almost want to leave first!
It’s so true!
Seeing this situation, Liu Xing couldn’t help but take a breath, because this feeling of being out of control reminded him of some bad things.
So Liu Xing patted Xu Bin on the shoulder and said seriously: “It seems that you have also been tricked, so we can’t face the owner, or we can’t lie when facing the owner… So Xu Bin, you should hide this thin dog now so that no one else can see it, and I will try the other players now to see if they can still lie!”
Before this, Liu Xing was still considering whether he should lie, but now Liu Xing has decided to challenge this task!
Although giving in can clear the level without any injuries and get a guaranteed reward, this is not the result Liu Xing wants because it is too frustrating for a player in the Cthulhu Running Group game lobby. Got it!
Sometimes, players still need to face challenges head-on.
Besides, the penalty for failing this mission shouldn’t be too big, right?
Liu Xing thought for a while and decided to let the dishes come to him. If he could use the name of the third prince to scare off the owner of Dahuang, then he could become the former owner! And if the name of the third prince is not very useful, then it is not impossible for him to come out and return the rhubarb.
Liu Xing was thinking as he found Dong Jin who was preparing to have breakfast.
In order to prevent Miao Fei or other NPCs from hearing something they shouldn’t hear, Liu Xing took Dong Qing and took two steps outside.
However, just these two steps made Liu Xing feel that a certain string in his mind was broken. This “thumping” feeling made Liu Xing very confused and didn’t know what was going on.
But Liu Xing soon realized a possibility, so he closed his eyes and thought about how to lie in the future.
After a while, Liu Xing heard Dong Qing’s voice.
“Leader, what are you doing standing here with your eyes closed?”
