I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 70 Outside the rules
Sherea took a step towards the house and tried to get close to Xiao Yi.

But his movement was quickly stopped by Dick.

"Don't move! If you move again, I'll shoot! Yuzuki Hyouhiru! Point the gun at Sherea!"

Yuzuki Bingju was speechless. Damn, I have the pistol here. What are you shouting arrogantly?
But Yuzuki Hyouju could only helplessly turn his gun towards Sherea.

But at this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly stood up and walked towards Sherea.

Dick was startled and shouted quickly: "What do you want to do!? Don't move! Yuzuki Hyouhi!"

"..." Yuzuki Bingzhou helplessly pointed the gun at Xiao Yi again.

Xiao Yi turned a blind eye to this and only extended his hand to Sherea.

"Sherea, do you have the rule book with you? Show it to me."

"Eh? This..." Sherea glanced at Dick and hesitated.

Sure enough, Dick threatened again: "Be careful I really shoot!"

"I don't have time to waste with you now, Dick." Xiao Yi also looked at Dick and said, "If you really doubt me, you won't waste your time here, but you will say it at the carnival ceremony."

"What...!" Dick was shocked. He actually saw through it. Was he just bluffing?
At this time, Dick also caught Xiao Yi's gaze.

He was immediately startled to realize that the Xiao Yi in front of him was somewhat unfamiliar.

In the past, when Dick looked at Xiao Yi, he would feel transparent and pure.Now, Dick could only feel fear.

That comes from the depths of the soul, the fear evoked by human instinct!

It was as if he suddenly realized that he was not standing, but was hanging in mid-air by an iron hook. All his torso, limbs, and organs had disappeared. Looking down, he could only see a withered and white spine swinging feebly. Sense of fear!

"... Yuzuki Hyouhiru, put down the gun." Dick said suddenly.

"...Eh? But?"

"Put down the gun!"

"……I see."

Yuzuki Hyouhi frowned and put down the gun, thinking: Damn, you asked me to raise the gun and then suddenly asked me to put it down. What is this?
Seeing this, Sherea dared to hand over the rules documents to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi took the rules document, glanced up and down for a moment, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Well...this rule is quite mysterious."

"Mysterious? What do you mean?" Sherea was confused.

Xiao Yi shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something. We can't understand the text of the rule documents, right? We can only understand it by relying on the translation mechanism. So, has the translation mechanism deliberately tampered with the content? What about the possibility of translating it to us again?”

"This..." Sherea was stunned. This possibility cannot be denied.

Xiao Yi continued: "This may be the origin of the so-called false rules. Language can help us understand the world, but language itself has limits, and those limits will become our constraints. That's why we need to learn better languages ​​to understand the world , for example, the language of mathematics. So, in order to understand the strange stories about rules, it is necessary to learn the language in the rule documents, right?"

"Ah... um." Sherea nodded blankly.

What Xiao Yi said makes sense, but... why should he say it to himself?
In fact, Xiao Yi was not just telling Sherea, he knew that there were many people on Blue Star watching them.

Among them, some people took action immediately after hearing Xiao Yi's words, such as Xu Yingguang.

In the past, because that kind of text was too difficult to parse and there was a translation mechanism, they didn't pay much attention to the text on the rule documents, but now Xu Yingguang immediately dispatched manpower to parse that kind of text!
Returning to Xiao Yi, he then said: "Then let's start the next topic."

"Next, next topic?" Sherea's eyes widened. He felt that he had not been able to keep up with the topic.

"Shereya, have you ever played chess? From the Dragon Kingdom." Xiao Yi suddenly asked.

Sherea could no longer keep up with Xiao Yi's thoughts, so he decided not to think too much and just answer whatever came first.

"Have you played, what's wrong?" Xiao Yi said: "The horse moves the sun, the elephant moves the field, these are the rules on the chessboard. However, the meaning of this rule cannot be understood by the chessmen who follow the rules. They can only play with the chess pieces. Only chess players can understand."

"...What do you mean?" Sherea was confused.

"The meaning of the world is outside the world." Xiao Yi explained: "The meaning of the rules is also outside the rules. If we are just chessmen who abide by the rules, we will never understand the meaning outside the rules. Fortunately, we are human beings , being able to think, just like the frog at the bottom of a well who doesn’t know how big the world is, but knows how blue the sky is, we can still get a glimpse of the true meaning beyond the rules from the rules.”

"The true meaning beyond the rules?"

"Well, that is to say, the existence of these rules, why are these rules made? And, why are such rules made?"

“…Don’t just follow the rules, but think beyond the rules?”

Sherea couldn't help but start to think about the meaning beyond the rules.

"Why should wolves and humans be given the right to choose whether to kill or not? And then it is stipulated that there are only five days, and the wolf must die after five days, which means that one of the two parties must die, but in fact there is no choice at all? Moreover, why are there still wolves? What about the rule about killing people during the day?”

Indeed, there are some strange things in the rules, but before, they were just following the rules without thinking about the meaning.

Xiao Yi smiled happily and continued: "Not only this dungeon, but also the entire strange story about rules. Then, let's start the next topic."

"Wait a minute!" At this time, Dick suddenly interrupted Xiao Yi and asked: "The meaning of the world lies outside the world. Is this what Wittgenstein said? Why did you mention this sentence suddenly?"

Xiao Yi replied: "Because this sentence is very cool. Who wouldn't want to say it if there is a chance?"

"..."

Dick was afraid of Xiao Yi in his heart, but he would not admit it, so he forced himself to say:

"Haha, I thought you were trying to say a lot of things all of a sudden, but it turns out you were just pretending. Besides, aren't you Longguo people very confident in the wisdom of your own country? Why do you quote people from other countries? You shouldn't quote The words of the sages of our country? Such as the great wisdom of "Zifeiyu" that makes a strong argument!"

After hearing these words, the people of Longguo, who were in a state of confusion when looking at Xiao Yi's performance, couldn't help but feel angry!
Dick doesn't understand this at all!

But the people of Longguo didn't understand it themselves and didn't know how to refute it, so they could only place their hope in Xiao Yi, who was a bit strange for some reason, and hoped that Xiao Yi could educate Dick.

However, Xiao Yi actually nodded, "Zifeiyu? That's just right. Indeed, you are right, that conversation was indeed about arguing and competing."

The hearts of the people in the Long Kingdom tightened. Are they admitting defeat?Dick couldn't help but feel proud when he heard Xiao Yi's words.

However, Xiao Yi's next words stunned Dick.

"However, for those who only know a little bit about hearsay and only know about that conversation, they are making excuses. For example, they also fail to understand the meaning of the words and are clearly trembling with fear, but they are still making excuses for the sake of face. you."

"Varied……"

Xiao Yi continued: "Anyone who has read the whole article can understand that Zifeiyu is not important. The key point is the sentence "Please follow the source", which can also be understood as...if you can't draw a conclusion, don't If you want to be more serious, please go back to the beginning."

"..." Dick was stunned. He probably understood what Xiao Yi meant.

But it was precisely because of his understanding that Dick truly felt that he had been crushed by Xiao Yi's IQ!

Sherea felt the same way, while Yuzuki Hyouju was completely confused.

Sherea couldn't help but sigh: "I still don't quite understand. Is this the so-called [Tao] in the wisdom of the Dragon Kingdom?"

"We don't have enough time, that's okay." Xiao Yi looked at Sherea and said, "Don't think of [Tao] too complicatedly. You can simply understand it as [respecting objective laws]."

Although the last words seemed to be very important, everyone still paid more attention to Xiao Yi's first words.

Everyone looked at Xiao Yi and asked doubtfully: "Not enough time? What do you mean?"

However, Xiao Yi has now returned to his familiar appearance.

"...Huh?" Xiao Yi couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you looking at me if you don't go to eat so early in the morning? If you don't go, I'll go."

After that, Xiao Yi went directly to eat, leaving only the three people in the house looking at each other.
