After the college entrance examination, life began to follow one's heart

Chapter 348 Xu Lin has ideals (in his career).

I got home late for Mid-Autumn Festival, so I'll write 6,000 words tomorrow.

After posting the new Weibo post, Xu Lin ignored the online discussions.

He then continued with his remaining work:

Update his game storyline.

Xu Lin is a person with ideals, so he wants to add something to the game.

Q: Are the kings, nobles, generals and ministers in history worthy of worship?

Xu Lin felt that it was not worthy of worship.

He has moved beyond the filter of idolizing historical figures, especially those from ancient times, such as heroes, kings, generals, and sages.

They are all the same; they are all excellent, but Xu Lin will not idolize them.

From the perspective of heroic history, it is the kings, nobles, generals, and heroes who created history, such as Li Longji who ushered in the Kaiyuan era of prosperity.

However, from the perspective of the people's history, it was countless ordinary people who created the magnificent and brilliant history, such as the Kaiyuan era. This was created by the people. Emperor Li Longji and his generals and officials had some merit, but not much.

However, history does not sing the praises of ordinary people, but only of kings, nobles and generals.

Take the Three Kingdoms period, for example, a time when heroes emerged one after another. But apart from Zhang Jiao, none of them were able to stand on the side of ordinary people and fight for a chance to survive for the people who were about to starve to death in the chaotic world. The others were all vying for the world and eventually ruling the four seas, which is what is known as the struggle to become emperor.

Therefore, in Xu Lin's new storyline, based on the previous plot, players are required to shoot and kill the crown prince.

The immediate context is that the crown prince committed an act that angered both heaven and man, while the broader context is that the world has a very strict hierarchy, with powerful clans deeply entrenched and oppressing ordinary people like mountains.

Players must publicly shoot the prince to challenge his privileges.

This shooting was not for personal revenge, nor was it to plead for the people.

After all, Xu Lin was not a saint, so he could not advocate for saints, such as the famous four sentences of Zhang Zai, which included the idea of ​​rectifying the heart of heaven and earth and establishing a destiny for the people...

This stuff is just bragging.

Xu Lin cannot promote these unrealistic ideas.

Xu Lin wants to convey two ideas through the game.

Firstly: If the emperor breaks the law, he shall be punished the same as the common people.

Therefore, those who should be killed should be killed.

This is easy to understand, and it's an ancient concept that dates back to some unknown dynasty.

But this statement is mostly empty talk.

Because historically, those privileged classes could literally kill someone in the street and still continue to live a carefree and unrestrained life.

For example, Yan Shifan, the weightlifting champion of the Ming Dynasty, secretly invented the "beauty's bowl," which was a place to spit out the mouth of a beautiful maid. In addition, there were the ancient princes and nobles who did not have to wipe their own butts after defecating, but let beautiful women clean them up.

The list goes on and on.

In feudal times, I'm not exaggerating.

Secondly, no privileges are allowed.

Therefore, when players publicly shoot the prince, challenging the ultimate setting of the early storyline, this concept has a significant impact on the game world. Players convey this concept through their actions, causing the world to gradually evolve because of this advanced idea.

Historically, Huang Chao used household registration records to wipe out all the powerful families, like smashing the yolks of eggs.

But Huang Chao dreamed of ruling the world; that is, he wanted to become a privileged class and possess the entire country.

However, in the game, Xu Lin wants players to spread this concept through the storyline, so that a new world form will automatically evolve in the game world several years later.

Do not overlook the importance of advanced ideas.

When the great man uttered those four words back then, many people burst into tears on the spot. It is difficult for modern people to understand how miserable the lives of ordinary people were in the old era, especially in the feudal era. When they went into the mountains to cut firewood, those mountains and firewood belonged to the landlords. If you dared to mess around, you would be beaten to death in the street, and the landlords would not get away with it.

As Xu Lin gained more experience, he realized that human civilization was constantly advancing, from slave society to feudal society, and then into modern civilization.

But in reality, human nature has not changed.

For example, several years later, Xu Lin might become a scumbag.

Even if he doesn't become a scoundrel, his descendants will have a certain probability of becoming scoundrels, becoming rent-seekers who dominate history, seeking personal gain by exploiting human society, and this will become more serious with each generation.

At twenty years old, Xu Linfeng was in his prime, full of vigor and vitality, and felt that the world should not be like this.

He has ideals.

At least in his youth, he had ideals.

He dreams of changing the world.

Now he is successful and has everything he could ever want.

He aspires to achieve even greater success.

It took Xu Lin seven or eight hours to finally update the new storyline, and that was with the help of the Moon Goddess; otherwise, it would have taken even longer.

Title: The emperor is subject to the same laws as the common people.

In the dead of night, Xu Lin released an update. His game has a huge player base; even at three or four in the morning, many people are still playing.

Upon discovering that it was a game story update, everyone excitedly began playing the new story immediately.

Although Xu Lin only spent seven or eight hours updating, the amount of game story content is enormous.

For a casual player experience, it would take at least forty hours, while a more in-depth experience would take over sixty hours.

This is Xu Lin's largest update to date; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to fit so much content.

So, for the next few days, we simply waited for the players to complete the game.

With dozens of hours of gameplay, it's impossible for people to play games for more than ten hours a day. Most people only play for a few hours a day at most, unless they are bored or make a living from gaming, such as game streamers.

The next night.

Xu Lin created a small group chat and added the bosses of eight game companies to it.

As soon as the group was created, Xu Lin didn't forget to explain the rules.

"According to the rules of the martial arts world, a teacher for a day is a father for life."

"This time, my sharing of technology is equivalent to a martial arts master imparting martial arts secrets to you. Therefore, I am your master, and you must respect me. However, I do not expect you to be overly obsequious. What I mean is that you must treat my technology and my achievements with care. In other words, do not misuse my technology. In the future, your achievements must at least be worthy of my technology."

Xu Lin spent more than ten minutes explaining a lot of rules and precautions.

There are even some moral requirements.

Xu Lin felt that his only flaw was that he was a bit of a womanizer.

But aside from this flaw, in terms of his character, he should be considered a saint.

After all, he now possesses the Moon Goddess, giving him the most powerful network capabilities in the world, bar none.

He was able to unleash his personal power to the fullest extent.

If Xu Lin had been of questionable character, many people would have suffered.

Just like the emperors in feudal times, in the system of dynastic rule, the emperor's personal will was greater than everything else most of the time. The slightest disturbance would cause ordinary people to suffer or even become extremely miserable.

Xu Lin can do things like this, and in short, he makes a lot of people suffer.

Under the control of powerful artificial intelligence, human society will experience terrifying scenes reminiscent of science fiction movies, such as The Matrix and Terminator, all of which Xu Lin can initially realize.

But Xu Lin doesn't do that.

He is a person with ideals and morality.

How could I possibly engage in such low-level entertainment?
Day three.

It was already mid-October.

Xu Lin hadn't seen Pei Danqing for quite some time, and neither had she.

So Pei Danqing took advantage of the time she had, and after confirming with Xu Lin that he also had time, she made a special trip from the capital today.

However, Xu Lin still had to pick her up.

Xu Lin went to the airport in the afternoon.

Traffic jams are common during rush hour in Jiangdu.

So Xu Lin drove the No. 9 to the airport.

Luxury cars are everywhere in Jiangdu, but Xu Lin had no intention of showing off by driving a four-wheeled vehicle.

He has matured a lot.

She even went out today wearing slippers and shorts, very casually.

Besides, he had only woken up in the afternoon and then hurriedly went out.

Upon arriving at the airport, Xu Lin quickly spotted Pei Danqing.

The other party was already waiting for him at the agreed location.

Pei Danqing maintained her usual style, wearing a long-sleeved shirt and suit pants, with the bottom of the shirt tucked into the pants. Instead of high heels, she wore flat shoes.

But she is very tall. Even with her hair, she is 1.8 meters tall, standing out from the crowd in the airport.

This woman is very beautiful. As a major city with a strong financial focus, Jiangdu is destined to attract beautiful women from all over the country.

Therefore, it is easy to see all kinds of beautiful women in Jiangdu.

But this woman seems to outshine all other beauties.

Even celebrities on TV are the same.

The man thought to himself, what kind of man can win over this kind of woman?
The woman thought to herself, what kind of man is worthy of this kind of woman?
Men and women think differently, but they both agree that Pei Danqing is extremely perfect.

But unfortunately, people saw a guy riding a No. 9 electric scooter and wearing big sunglasses appear.

They took this wonderful woman away.
