Chapter 1009 (2/2)
”According to the records of anecdotes, the doctor suddenly disappeared after giving Japanese ninja pills.” Chen Hui said with a smile: ”from this point of view, people in practice are more likely. However, although this anecdote has its true and credible part, it also has the possibility of untrue part. This possibility is still great.”
Shangguan Ruyun looks at Chen Hui with inquiring eyes, waiting for Chen Hui's explanation.
”Anecdotes, generally speaking, involving celebrities, will specify who celebrities are.” Chen Hui explained: ”this is the consistent style of anecdotes. The purpose is to win people's trust. Most of the anecdotes are not true, because they will win people's trust with the name of a famous person. This anecdote says that this Japanese ninja will eventually become a famous ninja, but it doesn't mention who it is, which is even more untrustworthy.”
After a pause, Chen Hui said: ”I only believe that part of it is that a doctor appeared and cured the plague of the Japanese ninja, and the doctor cured all the plague patients and ended the plague. The Japanese ninja may have discovered the truth that the doctor made pills with bronze tripod, but I don't believe in the records in the future.”
”Why?” Ye Mengchen doesn't understand of ask a way.
”There are two reasons.” Chen Hui said with a smile: ”it's just the two situations that Shangguan Ruyun asked me. First, if the doctor is not a practitioner, he is a general doctor. According to the records, the Japanese ninja knows martial arts and follows the doctor to protect him. It doesn't make sense. If I am the doctor and have such a magic weapon, though I'm saving people, But I will keep the secret of the magic weapon and keep myself in a safe environment. I will never allow someone who knows martial arts to follow me. ”
”Second!” Chen Hui continued: ”if the doctor is a man of practice, he is unlikely to let the Japanese ninja follow him. He treats these plague patients. They are all ordinary people, which shows that he has a strong purpose, because the man of practice has an unwritten rule since ancient times that he will not take care of the affairs of the secular world, In fact, he is in charge of the affairs of the secular world. With a very clear purpose, he will quickly accomplish his own goal, and will not let a Japanese samurai follow him as a tail and get in the way! ”
”It makes sense.” Shangguan Ruyun pondered for a while and said, ”if I were to take the bronze tripod to treat the plague patients, no one would follow me.”
Chen Hui said with a smile: ”in addition, anecdotes and anecdotes all have one thing in common, that is, they will have an ultimate goal. The focus of this record is not the doctor or the tripod, but the Japanese ninja. On the whole, it's about the adventures of the Japanese ninja who came to the East. The final result is that he became a famous ninja, which is actually a kind of praise to him, I think the ultimate goal of this kind of flattery should not be aimed at the Japanese ninja, but at the family of the Japanese ninja. ”
After a long silence, Zhou qiuchu said, ”I still don't quite understand what you mean.”
”I mean it's simple.” Chen Hui said with a smile: ”this anecdote should be processed. There are credible and untrustworthy parts. The credible part should be the original record of the anecdote, while the untrustworthy part is added by later generations. This kind of thing is very common, especially in a ninja family. If there is such a generation of famous people in their family, And there are some credible anecdotes and anecdotes. Just like us, when we look at them as stories, they will have this kind of thought and continue to myth. But in the end, they will not be named, and they will be ambiguous, so that they can make use of the topic. If someone really finds out the problem and seeks the truth, they will say that it is not named, but just a legend. Once they have written the name, It's not like that at all. It's easy to be gouged to the root! ”
”If this kind of processing and embellishment takes a longer time to compare the age of the characters, it may be found.” Looking at Zhou qiuchu, Chen Hui said, ”let the experts who decipher this material identify the writing age of the whole record. Maybe there will be different findings.”
”That's the only way to do it.” After a pause, Chen Hui added.
