Summon players to expand territory for me

The president of Zhao Guoxiang Huai Society died, but the society is still "alive".

Hu Pingan previously studied with Qiao Lei, and everyone trusts and values ​​him. Hu Pingan has become the new president. He will take over Qiao Lei's responsibility and lead everyone again.

There were many things to learn, and Jiang Liao quickly straightened his mood and turned his grief and anger into strength - he was writing a book manuscript. This was one of the more secretive and safe ways for them to promote their thoughts. After completion, he would be secretly arranged in the Sold in some bookstores.

Jiang Liao's knowledge and grades are both good. He read the storybook written by the Huai Kingdom's heavenly soldiers. Inspired, he wrote a book about slaying demons and slaying demons. The protagonist is a man who kills demons and slays demons. living person.

Jiang Liao collected information from everywhere, processed and adapted many things that happened in reality and wrote them into the book, satirizing the court, officials and local gentry.

He borrowed the words of the protagonist and said: "Humans and demons are both good and bad. What is scary is not the skin, but the heart wrapped in the skin."

"The most terrifying thing in the world is not ghosts and gods, but the human heart. Many things are only realized in hindsight, such as... karma, and... the human heart is sinister."

"Flowers bloom regardless of poor families, and the moon shines brightly on mountains and rivers everywhere. In the world, only people's hearts are evil, and God must support people in everything." This is the opening line of the book.

Jiang Liao is so bold that the background is about the cruel rule of the king. His pen name "Look at the World" became popular, and the story "Exorcism" became popular. With the promotion of the Society and others, an adapted play appeared on the stage. There is a gentleman on the stage who is telling stories.

"Exorcism" was so popular that it fell into Chu Minghua's hands. After reading the book, Chu Minghua became so angry that he swept away all the porcelain in the room, making endless crackling sounds.

All the eunuchs and maids in the palace knelt down, pressing their foreheads tightly to the ground, not even daring to take a deep breath.

"Who is he slandering?! How dare he make irresponsible remarks about the imperial court?! I'm just saying that Huai Kingdom and others have bad intentions! What did they teach? Look at these untouchables! Do they still know what peace of mind is?!"

"Your Majesty, calm down! I will send people to arrest the author right now!" The chief manager next to him was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat - this Majesty is murderous, and if he can't be appeased, there will be many heads.

"This book will be banned immediately! Anyone who dares to promote this book will be thrown into jail immediately!!!"

"Whoo."

------------

"Sorry, Brother Jiang, your "Exorcism of Demons" has been banned!" Someone came to report in a hurry.

Hu Ping'an also looked pity: "But fortunately, the people promoting the brochure are all our own people, so we are not afraid of being found - it's just that your hard work has been in vain."

After Jiang Liao heard the news, he was still polishing the manuscript unhurriedly.

"How can it be in vain? This shows that what I wrote is indeed good and true. I exposed all their ugly sides and made them uncomfortable."

"Hahaha, indeed, and he just said it? There are many people who come to us privately and want to continue reading! Don't many of the books that were banned in the past still have their books in some shops? ? And he can ban it at home, but not abroad."

As Hu Ping'an said, he suddenly pressed Jiang Liao's hand, interrupted Jiang Liao's movements, and looked at him with a serious look on his face.

"Brother Jiang, go to another country. The court is looking for you. If something happens in the bookstore and you are exposed, you will have no chance."

Jiang Liao didn't answer him directly. He said, "I'll wait."

Hu Ping'an hesitated to speak, and finally sighed and said nothing.

--------------

"Brother Chen!" Jiang Liao was invited to Display's house.

As usual, Zhan Chen invited him into the study where they were discussing business. What was strange was that there were cold dishes and wine on the coffee table in the study - Zhan Zhan always felt that the study was a place where business was done, so he never ate here.

Chen Chen took the initiative to talk to Jiang Liao about the days when he was studying in Huai State. Jiang Liao felt something was wrong, but he still cooperated with him.

"...Brother Jiang, it's you who wrote 'Looking at the World', right? You also wrote 'Exorcism', right?"

After the display finished recalling, he paused and suddenly spoke.

It looked like he was asking, but his tone was full of affirmation. Jiang Liao looked at him steadily, not even feeling surprised.

"Yes."

"I know that you have talked to me about these things before - I have said that if you take this road, it is revolution, and revolution requires bloodshed. When I studied this in Huaiguo, you were the best. I I don’t believe you don’t understand...why-"

The display was somewhat incoherent.

The door of the study room was suddenly pushed open, and officials filed in, surrounding the two people in the study room. They were holding big swords and looking solemn.

Jiang Liao's expression didn't change, he just looked at the display with a bit of understanding and disappointment in his eyes.

"...So, you sold me."

Display choked up: "I'm no bolder than you. They have been monitoring me and threatening my family. I really can't stand it... If you do something like this, you are betraying the court. Quit now. You There is still a way to survive.”

There was a sense of indifference in Jiang Liao's eyes, and Chen She felt that the other party seemed to have seen through him.

He said, "No, there's no way to survive, you know that."

Yes, he knew that those who were suspected were directly sent to the guillotine, let alone "Kan Renjian" himself? ——Zhan Zhan was in a trance, tears falling like broken pearls.

"Mr. Chen, you made a right decision... Let's go!" The leader glanced at the display appreciatively and escorted Jiang Liao away.

Jiang Liao didn't resist and didn't say a word.

Zhan Chen hoped that he would curse at himself - he watched Jiang Liao being taken away in a daze, and there was still a copy of "Destroying Demons" hidden in his desk, which he had written full of comments on.

The door to the study room was still open, and Zhan Chen had been sitting there for who knows how long. He took out the book "Exterminating Demons" hidden in the desk and suddenly burst into tears.

Get rid of demons, get rid of demons, get rid of the demons in his heart——

"Come here! Come here!" Zhe Chen ran out of the study and ran into the house, shouting loudly. His clothes were messy when he ran. His mother, wife and children all ran out when they heard the noise.

"Move, let's move-"

Display's family looked surprised.

On this side, Jiang Liao was imprisoned. The jailer saw that he had been silent and silent, like a piece of wood. He couldn't imagine that someone who looked at him so indifferently could actually do such an earth-shattering thing.

"Do you regret it?"

Jiang Liao raised his head, his eyes as bright as stars.

"No regrets."

"...You people are really crazy, what's the point?"
