Chapter 19 What Humans Have Created
There is a very interesting story written in the book "Soul Ferry".
The author's biggest hobby is not to observe people but to observe the daily life of small creatures visible to the naked eye! For example: ants!
That started eight years ago!
Eight years ago, a few ants appeared in the corner of the author's office!
As an otaku, the author did not panic, but observed every move of the ants every day! He even named these ants with great interest!
One day, he had a sudden idea to spread fine sand in the corner! Put some cakes and snacks for them every day!
Weird things started in these few days!
The next day, when he returned to the office, the two words "Waiwaiguai" appeared on the sand table!
Thanks!
What a boring prank! The author said jokingly!
Then he continued his day's work! Before leaving, he unscrewed the bottle cap and put the last sip of Coke on the sand table!
The next day, five words appeared on the sand table!
Coke tastes great!
The handwriting is still crooked!
Seeing these words again made him alert!
He is a bachelor! The only person who can enter this office is the cleaning lady in the corridor!
He paid an extra fee and gave her a key to clean up after he left! He made it a point not to touch the sand!
He turned on the camera! Fast-forwarding all the way, until he saw that the cleaning lady had only packed away the lunch boxes on the table and emptied the trash can, he fell into a terrible thought!
Could it be that the ants were talking to him! How is this possible? Did he have a brain problem recently and fall into some kind of hallucination?
To do this, he can point the computer's high-definition camera at the ants!
The next day! He saw a line of text again!
Have you discovered me?
He opened the archive of the camera! When he saw swarms of ants appearing in the corner after he left, especially when these ants presented words through their own weight in the same way as stacking Arhats, his mind was completely blown.
Exploded!
When did ants learn human language?
Will they understand something more profound?
Before leaving that afternoon, he wrote this line on the sand table!
Do you have a soul?
The next day, this sentence gave him the answer!
We have no soul! We are just creating and imitating you!
The author is a little disappointed! He thought of smart technology.
That night he chose not to go home. He first wrote on the sand table:
What other species is imitating humans?
Soon the ant colony receded.
All species around humans are imitating and creating! Some have already created souls!
The word "create soul" made him want to laugh! This kind of laughter is the kind of ridicule that high-dimensional creatures make to low-dimensional creatures!
How to create a soul?
The soul itself cannot be created! But a carrier can be created to house the soul! This is the soul body!
Has any species succeeded?
Yes! Numbers!
Numbers! How can numbers create souls? This makes the author very puzzled!
Do numbers have a soul?
Yes! Every number is a soul! They all carry the secrets of the universe!
Isn’t this the content that up owners talk nonsense about every day?
How to prove it?
Please open the sequence list of π!
The author printed out the 100,000 digits of π as requested!
not enough!
Two words appear on the sand table!
Keep printing! One million bits!
Your birthday starts at 175,426 digits. There are 18 digits.
The author reached this position with some doubts, and he suddenly discovered such a series of numbers!
197605220815367120
Four more numbers? 7120.
What are these four digits?
The ants answer! What's left of you next.
20 years later, the author, who was only 45 years old, died in a car accident. Exactly 7120 days!
The reason why this story interests him is that in 1996, human beings' understanding of π was far from such a high level! Maybe it was his imagination!
Or maybe the story of his conversation with the ants is true!
Of course, this is just a story anyway!
However, this story connected him to the marine life of Europa!
Is there a kind of creature with group consciousness? Each of them is a thinking creature!
Then a rudimentary ethnic group rules the entire ocean world of Europa!
He has dozens of guesses about Europa every day!
Ghost bodies! Group consciousness! These are just some of them!
Yesterday I received the prediction report of Europa's Haavi! There has been a big breakthrough in opening up the ocean layer!
Because they discovered a convection vent.
The thickness of the ice here is only one kilometer! And this is where they dug it!
This is undoubtedly very good news! The progress of the robot's icebreaking is 200 meters per day! The data collection including internal environment analysis takes another day or two!
Basically, it’s two hundred meters in four days!
