Chapter 262 A Conversation
"No matter how you think about it, it's a bit surreal, right?"
There were bright lights in the narrow room, which shone on the faces of the person sitting in front of the table.
It was a middle-aged man with a messy beard.
The middle-aged man had a little fat face, but his eyes were full of fatigue and unconsciousness. The thick dark circles showed that he had not had a good sleep for a long time, and his fluffy beer belly showed that he had always had a very bad body management job.
At this time, he was telling this matter to a man and a woman on the other side of the table.
But the man and the woman obviously didn't believe what he said.
"A person is the anchor of the world. All the cause and effect are disordered in him. Will reconstruct the entire world without even his own control?! No matter how you think about it, it is really outrageous!"
The woman dyed her yellow hair and her words were full of incredible.
"I also think this fact is too mysterious."
The man around the woman couldn't help but vomited a smoke ring: "It's not brother, I'll tell you, but you can lie to your buddy, but don't just fool you. It doesn't matter if you've been deceived by you. Just beat me up, but I hope you wipe the corners of your eyes after you finish this passage and don't let tears fall on the screen of your phone. It's really not that guy wants to break your defense. Wipe your tears and think about it carefully. Who else believes you except brothers?"
"How come your words sound so familiar?"
The middle-aged man couldn't help but glance at the opposite side: "Do you really understand what cause and effect are?"
"Then I'm quite researched."
The man around the woman put out the cigarette and began to talk: "Opra Winfrey once said, "You will become what kind of person you believe in." Although this sentence is short, it makes me think a lot. And these are not entirely important. The more important question is how to do the cause and effect."
"Schopenhauer said this inadvertently that ordinary people only think about how to spend time, and talented people try to make use of time. This made me think deeply that the will is a strong blind man, leaning on the shoulders of a lame man with clear eyes. I hope you can also understand this sentence well. With these questions, let's examine cause and effect."
"What is the key to the problem? We all know that as long as it makes sense, it must be carefully considered. Zola once the path of life is chosen, you must bravely go to the end and never look back. In fact, success does not require any special talent. Now, solving the problem of cause and effect is very, very important. Therefore, we have to face a very embarrassing fact, that is, it is difficult for anyone in this world to explain the essence of cause and effect."
“Aren’t all you say nonsense?”
Not only the middle-aged man, but even that woman rolled her eyes unhappily.
The man shook his head embarrassedly.
In fact, from the very beginning, he didn't understand the essence of the word cause and effect, but he was embarrassed to admit it in front of his female colleague.
That's why I deliberately talk nonsense.
But this approach actually had no meaning, and in the end it did not save him any face at all.
"Let me teach you a lesson."
The middle-aged man cleared his throat and said slowly: "Generally speaking, cause and effect refer to the relationship between a series of factors and a phenomenon. Any event that affects a certain result is a factor in the result. The direct factor is a factor that directly affects the result, that is, no intervention factor is required. From this perspective, the relationship between cause and effect can also be called a causal relationship."
"Causes and results are usually related to changes or events. The content here is quite complicated, so I won't go into it in depth for the time being. In fact, the philosophical study of causality and effect has a long history. Buddhist and Western philosophers such as Aristotle had already proposed cause and effect many years ago. This issue is still an important topic in modern philosophy."
"Things are universally connected. In order to understand individual phenomena, we must extract them from the universal connection and examine them in isolation, one for the cause and the other for the result."
"Usually, the reason must be first, the result can only be later, and the chronological order of the two cannot be reversed."
"But Roach is an exception."
The middle-aged man looked at the two men opposite again and continued: "What I want to tell you is that the deterministic worldview believes that the universe is just a series of events that occur according to the law of cause and effect, and there is no free will. Compatibility theory believes that determinism is compatible or even necessary for free will. Existentialism believes that although the essential meaning is designed in the deterministic universe, each of us can provide meaning for ourselves."
"Can you understand what I want to express?"
"I can roughly understand the meaning of the word cause and effect." The woman's fingers lazily stroked the ends of her hair, and asked slowly in a melodious tone: "Hasn't our focus always been Roach? What exactly is the situation with him that you just said?"
"As I just said, cause and effect are inverted in him."
The middle-aged man's expression gradually became serious: "According to common sense, the result is the latter because of the front, but all this in Roach is disordered. Therefore, whether it is time or space, any involvement with him will be in a very unstable and chaotic state."
“This is not the point of the problem.”
The woman's brows began to frown: "The point is how do you prove that what you said is true?"
"I can't prove it..."
The middle-aged man pursed his lips tightly: "But I still want to tell this."
"Then how did you know all this?"
“It’s very simple…”
The middle-aged man raised his head: "I created this person Roach."
"Are you making a fantasy with us?"
"This is indeed no different from a fantasy." The middle-aged man sighed deeply, and then continued: "You may not be very clear. Actually, I am a novel who makes a living by writing a novel. I usually rely on some royalties to live by barely living. I had a long time ago, and I wrote a novel about a pirate fan. The protagonist of the story was called Rochi, but the book was poor, so I castrated myself..."
"Create himself by swinging a knife?"
"It means not to write halfway through writing."
"I know."
The man next to the woman smiled and blinked: "I just asked that on purpose. Speaking of which, you people really hate it. Do you know that the novel you are chasing will be more uncomfortable suddenly? Now fewer and fewer readers are willing to read it, it is entirely the fault of you, the dead eunuchs."
"Of course I know that this will bring bad consequences, but..."
