Chapter 340 Different Times Answers

After lunch, Xu Ying asked about the decree again: "Are the chances of being sentenced to life imprisonment and being executed immediately the same?"

Zhao Yuxi once thought about the issue of probability carefully.

Life imprisonment is much better than immediate execution in name only. In the old days, life imprisonment was not "real" and people could be released early through commutation of sentence or other means. Even if they could not get out, they could still see their families occasionally.

However, the "life imprisonment" written in the dignity maintenance order is not so lenient. This kind of imprisonment almost cuts off all their contact with the outside world. If they die, their families don't know, and if their families die, they don't know either.

In prison, they cannot get any news from the outside world, and cannot even accurately perceive the passage of time. This shocking situation will make the meaning of their lives extremely small, almost the same as death. The nature of this punishment is as serious as immediate execution, so the probability is the same.

Zhao Yuxi said: "The probability is the same. Once they enter my prison, they will never get out. Before entering the prison, I will ask them to write down their suicide notes. From then on, no matter what they write, their families will not know. They also don't know what happened to their families. They are isolated from the world and are almost the same as dead."

The probability is the same, so it is not too harsh. Xu Ying reluctantly approved the new decree. As long as Zhao Yuxi is willing, she can definitely create such a prison. But no matter what, life imprisonment is easier to accept than immediate execution, and it is more merciful than immediate execution. If the execution is wrong, the person will not be resurrected, but the person in prison still has a chance to get out. What she said, "Don't ever think about getting out", is only for some people.

"The meaning of life is not to connect with the world and family. What do they have to do after entering prison? Do they need to work or study?"

In Zhao Yuxi's conception, these people don't have to do anything after entering prison. If they are honest enough, they can open their eyes occasionally. If they are not honest, they don't have to open their eyes. Cutting off contact with the outside world is based on sleeping and doing nothing.

But after hearing what Xu Yingze said, she realized that this approach was too wasteful. Those who were sentenced to life imprisonment were free labor. It seemed a more clever idea to let them work in exchange for sober time.

"No. But now that you mention it, let me think about it. I'll think about whether there is any work that does not require contact with the outside world and does not require high technical content but is indispensable."

Three requirements.

First, there is no need for them to contact the outside world. If they can contact the outside world, it will deviate far from the original intention of life imprisonment.

Second, the technical content should not be too high, which is also very important. These people come from all walks of life, and their personal abilities and levels are very different. If you assign them the same job, the job certainly cannot be too difficult.

Third, they are indispensable. Zhao Yuxi didn't want them to engage in the pure physical labor of the old times. This kind of labor is like rest and entertainment for the asymptotics, and they can complete the work easily. Moreover, the items produced by those physical labors seem to be redundant in this era.

The two girls were chatting, and the two boys stayed in the restaurant. They all knew that there were not many jobs that met these three requirements, but with Zhao Yuxi's ability and power, she should be able to find such a job.

Regarding the dignity maintenance order, Xu Ying has nothing to say. Although the existing law still has shortcomings, it is much better than before. Let this law be implemented for a period of time, and correct it in time if problems arise in the future.

"Sister Zhao Yuxi, did you invite us to dinner just for the decree?"

"No. I still want to satisfy my curiosity. Is the person whose dream is to be seen a Level 2 or Level 3? If he is a Level 3, you should not get too close to him. It's not safe."

Zhao Yuxi didn't care whether Xu Yingze had found someone who could see dreams. She was the dean of the third-level branch, and she was considered a big shot in the Academy of Sciences. Plus, with Jiang Mengxi secretly helping her, it was impossible for her not to find such a person. Finding someone was not the point. The point was what level the person whose dream was to be seen was. Xu Yingze and Mu Zhengguang would not reach the third level until the end of December. The gap between the second and third levels could not be made up by the number of people. There was a world of difference between those who could enter the world of mutual dissolution and those who could not.

"He said he could reach the third level by the end of October, so he might have already reached it." Xu Ying was not worried about this for the time being. As long as her classmates were by her side, her domain radius could double, enough to suppress the asymptotes who had just entered the third level.

"Be careful. If you must meet the Ancient One, have your assistant and stationmaster, who have reached the third level, go with you."

"Okay, I understand. I will definitely pay attention to it."

Zhao Yuxi was still worried. These two people could not see the radius and asymptotic rate of others' domains, so their caution could only play a very limited role.

"Do you have time this afternoon? Let's go meet the Medieval One. Let's also take a look at your assistants and stationmasters. Let's see who has reached the third level and who has not."

Xu Yingze and Mu Zhengguang only took one morning off. But this was not a problem, as Xu Yingze decided not to go to school in the afternoon either.

"There's time. I'll notify the assistant and the stationmaster and ask them to go to Xiangye City in advance. Should we set off now?"

"Don't be in a hurry. Let me wash the dishes and clean up the table before we go. Mu Zhengguang, ask your assistant and the stationmaster to go to Xiangye City as well. People's asymptotic rates and domain radii are secrets, but they are not secrets. These things, like age, will not be written out clearly, but the approximate number can be guessed through some behaviors and performances. Can you accept this statement?"

Xu Yingze and Mu Zhengguang are both too conservative, and this conservatism is not only reflected in their use of asymptotes, but also in their use of power. They care too much about the interests of others when doing things, and their attitude towards the order to maintain dignity is enough to prove this. The asymptotic rate and domain radius are secrets, which is of course also an interest. Zhao Yuxi is not sure whether these two people are willing to know these secrets.

Mu Zhengguang replied: "I can accept it."

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment and gave the same answer.

Hesitation is a small matter, as long as the answer is true.

That afternoon, several people left Guyuan City and went to Xiangye City, and Gu Tingzhou also followed them.

That afternoon, Cui Yunqing received a message from Yang Shuyu, who asked her to leave Guyuan City and go to Changbai Mountain, and put her plan to win over Zhao Yuxi on hold. Cui Yunqing did not immediately go to Changbai Mountain, but instead went to Yongjie City. The person Zhang Haochen was looking for had not been contacted yet, so she thought she had to ask him in person.

In Yang Shuyu's opinion, there was no obvious mistake after Zhao Yuxi modified the dignity maintenance order, so there was no need to deliberately win her over. The environment in Xingting was not suitable for her to perform, and forcing her in would be disadvantageous to both parties.

Other people in Xingting will dislike Zhao Yuxi, and Zhao Yuxi will also dislike people in Xingting. Instead of this, it is better to let everyone go their separate ways. What's more, even if she is brought to Xingting, she will not do anything for Xingting sincerely, and they will still go their separate ways.
