Chapter Thirty-Nine: Zhuang Zhou's Dream of a Butterfly

"Virtual world, program code?" Kanzaki Narumi's eyes were blank, without any anger, she looked at Xiao Lang blankly and said: "Then how do you know that the reality you are talking about is not virtual?"

"Of course it can't be virtual. At least we need to eat and drink outside of the game..." Xiao Lang retorted.

"I don't know if you know [Don't Starve], a light-brain game. It can perfectly simulate various physiological conditions that a person must meet to survive, including hunger, water intake, physical strength, temperature, immunity, etc.," Kamisaki

Chengmei replied: "The fantasy world can also add this template to achieve the reality you said."

"If characters like us in the game are injured, the recovery method is completely different from that in reality. A bottle of blood medicine can..." Xiao Lang stopped before he finished speaking, because he also thought of it.

An optical brain game with extremely high degree of simulation in this aspect——[Fight Club].

This also means that Second Heaven can turn it into another template and add it to the fantasy world.

"The reason why Second Paradise does not do this is just to reduce the difficulty of the game to a certain extent. It does not mean that the technology is not up to par. I believe that as long as the company is willing, it can completely make players confused about what is virtual and what is virtual.

That's reality." Kanzaki Narumi said.

"The Matrix?!" Xiao Lang instantly thought of this movie from Kanzaki Narumi's words, but using the settings in the movie to match reality was so subversive of Xiao Lang's cognition that Xiao Lang didn't understand it at all.

Dare to believe it.

"To be precise, it's a brain in a vat."

If the former Jinguji Yui was like a theologian, discussing the issue of soul and body, then the current Kamisaki Narumi is more like a philosopher, thinking about "how do human beings exist?"

"The profound philosophy of

The brain in a vat is a famous thought experiment that Xiao Lang had heard of a little bit.

Imagine a mad scientist takes your brain out of your body and puts it in some kind of life-sustaining fluid. There are electrodes inserted into the brain, and the electrodes are connected to a computer that generates images and sensory signals. Because all the information you acquire

Information about the world is processed through your brain, and this computer has the ability to simulate your daily experience. If this is indeed possible, how can you prove that the world around you is real and not caused by

Some kind of simulated environment generated by a computer?

This "distorted" thought experiment can obviously no longer be simply explained by Descartes' classic "I think, therefore I am", because your thinking is still complete and independent, but your body no longer exists.

No one knows, and no one can give an accurate answer: How can you know what is true and what is the real you?

Because all the truth you understand is fed back to your brain as signals through your senses. But once these signals themselves are false, how can you be sure that the pain you feel is real?

pain, rather than "false" physiological signals?

Furthermore, if there is no physical carrier such as the brain, and the signals from the external senses are only transmitted to the unknown "soul", it is equivalent to the situation described by Jinguji Yui before, and they no longer need a body at all.

Xiao Lang was completely stunned. He didn't expect that what was originally just a question about "whether the soul exists" has turned into a question about "whether he is really alive."

Xiao Lang was also unable to answer.

Kanzaki Narumi continued: "I have no doubt that reality is also a false world. I just want to tell the master how the body exists. In fact, it doesn't matter to us, as long as the soul is sound.

, we can think independently, and as long as we can think independently, we are real people, not program codes."

"Speaking of which, even if our bodies are indeed made up of program codes, which makes you think they are virtual, our bodies in reality are just cells made up of countless molecules and atoms, and then the body itself. Who would know

Are these elementary particles not a kind of program code written by the True God?" Jinguji Yui added: "It can even be conjectured that the results we obtained through the so-called scientific analysis are also what the True God wants us to know.

Answer."

Obviously, Jinguji Yui believes in the existence of God more than Kamisaki Narumi.

And Xiao Lang couldn't even make a surprised expression at this moment. After all, ordinary people, who usually think about this kind of problem?

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Lang didn't say anything to refute. In fact, Xiao Lang really didn't know where to refute. Even if Xiao Lang was usually smart, on this issue, it had nothing to do with whether he was smart or not.

"I don't care whether your statement is right or wrong. I just want to know whether what happened in reality as I understand it in the ten days before you have gathered your souls will still have an impact on you?"

Xiao Lang gave up the idea of ​​discussing theology or philosophy with them, and instead asked more practical questions.

"Yes." Asakura Hanaki replied: "In these ten days, if our bodies left in the game warehouse are discovered by others and forcibly stripped out of the fantasy world, it will also mean that all our previous efforts have been wasted. However, for real-life matters, the leader will

If it's handled properly, it won't be a problem to hide it for ten days."

"What about after the souls are gathered together? After the souls and body are separated, can you still go back?" Xiao Lang then asked.

"I don't know, it should be possible." Asakura Hanaki looked a little sad. After all, not everyone can take "life and death" so lightly like Jinguji Yui and Kanzaki Narumi.

"It's impossible." Kanzaki Narumi suddenly interjected: "Our souls have entered the fantasy world. In reality, our bodies will only be judged as vegetative or even brain-dead. The game warehouse will automatically alarm, and the leader can no longer protect us.

There is no need for that. According to the general process, our bodies will be burned to ashes after three days, or donated to hospitals or schools. Of course, since our identities are unknown, it is more likely that we will go through illegal procedures, in which case our bodies will be burned to ashes.

My body will only get worse."

Kanzaki Narumi was narrating a very tragic fact, but Xiao Lang couldn't hear any feeling of grief from her mouth, calm, rational, and even a kind of indifference. The other women's faces only changed slightly when they heard the words, and then they

Then they calmed down, obviously they had already expected this outcome.

"Is it worth it?" Xiao Lang suddenly asked such a question for some reason.

"Isn't this like a question that the master can ask?" Yui Jinguji tilted his head and said: "If it were you, you would definitely choose to live in a virtual world like us, and we never do.

I feel like this is a virtual world, not to mention that it is much better than the so-called reality."

Xiao Lang smiled bitterly: "But do you think that a light-brain game can actually make people... well, turn people into a vegetative state? Is this reasonable? Once the fantasy world is closed, can you still exist?"

"This is not an issue we need to consider, Master, and we are not qualified to consider it. At least, we can live for a few more years. It is a real life, not a life for some god." Asakura Hanaki replied.

"I... understand." After Xiao Lang finished speaking calmly, he was about to log off directly.

"Master, don't you have any other questions to ask?" Upon seeing this, Asakura Hanaki immediately took two steps forward and asked aloud: "For example, what kind of danger will it bring to you by taking us in?"

"We'll talk about it when I get back. I have more important things to figure out now. As for whether it's dangerous, I haven't seen your Japanese ninjutsu Onmyoji before." Xiao Lang smiled back and left the game. (
