Chapter 3172 (Three Thousand One Hundred and Seventy Two) Independence
None of them said they had other ideas at the time.
Tie Hongyan found it even more difficult to understand and asked them to answer one by one whether they had different opinions at the time.
After asking them one by one, she found that everyone said that they did not have a different point of view from others on this matter at that time.
Tie Hongyan asked again: "Did you have any doubts about this approach at first?"
After saying this, Tie Hongyan once again glanced at every Tiecang person holding a whip.
However, everyone's reaction told her that she didn't have the slightest doubt about this approach at the time.
During this process, Tie Hongyan found this thing incredible and thought: This is too strange! The falling of Zhentai Iron Beast's head obviously had nothing to do with them. Not only did they all take the initiative to admit that it was related to them, but they all agreed to let him do the magic-using actions at that time! However, the idea of having him perform those magic-using actions at that time was obviously not a method that ordinary people could easily think of, and it would also make outsiders feel ridiculous. Were their thoughts on the matter really so consistent at the time? When I asked them one by one just now, everyone said that they agreed with the idea of letting that person perform the action of using the spell. Is this true, or is it just because everyone else says that? Could it be that some people say that they are the same as others because they are afraid that they will be treated separately by me if they are different from others? Is it that even if they don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing to be treated alone by me, they don't dare to be different from others. Even if they get bad results, everyone will get equally bad results, so that they can feel balanced in their hearts? Would things have been different if I acted as if I wanted to benefit someone who had a different opinion in mind at the time? I'll give it a try.
Tie Hongyan said deliberately: "It is very valuable to be able to think independently and not be led away by other people's ideas."
After speaking, she looked at the reactions of those people, but no one had any special reaction.
Tie Hongyan continued to ask: "Is it true that no one at that time had other opinions on the views that others agreed with because of independent thinking?"
After finishing speaking, she looked at everyone in turn again, but no one stood up to express that they actually had other opinions at the time. When she looked at one of the Tiecang people, the man sighed and looked regretful, so she asked, "Why are you sighing?"
The man said: "Young Patriarch, I actually think it is very valuable to be able to think independently. However, at that time, I seemed to be controlled by something and could not have any different ideas. Even now, I feel like I am being controlled by something. Feeling, but lighter than that moment.”
"What do you think you are being controlled by?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"I don't know." The man said.
"Can you describe that feeling in detail?" Tie Hongyan asked.
"Maybe it's what they said just now, 'I can't help myself'..." the man said.
"Do you feel the same way?" Tie Hongyan asked those Tiecang people holding whips.
All those people said they felt this way.
Tie Hongyan thought this matter was even more strange, and asked: "The feeling of being 'in control of one's own' that you mentioned, is it because you are afraid of being different from others or afraid of being punished, or is it something else?"
