Chapter 174 The Anchor of the World
Exhaustion and tiredness struck one after another, followed closely by a severe headache.
Most people have headaches that either hurt their temples or migraines. Xia Yubing was different. Her pain was in the back of her head.
Opening his eyes, he saw that the sky was already slightly bright. Xia Yubing struggled to get up with one hand covering his throat. The severe pain of his throat and brain stem being torn apart by bullets faintly emerged, and he felt as if something had solidified in his head. A lump of paste.
Looking up under the sun, Xia Yubing saw a huge face with no facial features.
That is the north side of the Erawan Buddha.
"Are you awake?" A familiar voice came from the side.
Xia Yubing turned around and saw that Ning Zhe, still using the identity of Feng Yushu, was sitting quietly next to her, looking down at her who had just gotten up from the ground.
"What happened...?" Xia Yubing sat up, her head still in a daze.
Ning Zhe's action of feeding bullets into her mouth was so smooth that Xia Yubing lost consciousness before she even realized what happened, so that she still looked confused when she woke up.
"Thanks to you, I basically understand the rules of this place." Ning Zhe said softly: "If nothing else happens, we can leave soon."
"Hey..." Xia Yubing His groggy mind was awakened by the joy, and he didn't even bother to ask where Xiao Ke, who had been walking with him before, had gone, so he excitedly asked: "Are you serious? Can we go?" < br>
Does this mean she can finally leave this hellish place and return home?
"You can say that." Ning Zhe gently pushed the loose hair behind his ears and said, "The premise is that the result I deduced before is correct."
"...reasoning?" Xia Yubing was a little curious: "You mean, have you figured out what happened in this place?"
"It's just a very likely conjecture. There is still no final verification, so it doesn't hurt to tell you."
Ning Zhe played with the gun in his hand and said slowly:
“This small town called Zanju is a very ambiguous place. An amorphous quantum cloud of probability envelopes here, interfering with the cognition of people who enter this place, and distorting the boundaries between reality and thought."
Here, two people with different cognitions, Observing the same thing at the same time and in the same place will result in different observation results. "
Xia Yubing shook his head: "I...I don't understand a little bit. ”
"Then let's use an analogy.
Suppose you and I are standing together in a dark room where we can't see our fingers. The curtains are opened a little, and a ray of sunlight shines in from the outside. You and I Everyone saw this beam of sunlight.
Sunlight is almost colorless natural light. At this time, a triangular lens was placed by the window. , which refracts colorless natural light into a variety of different colors.
People see different colors when they stand in different positions, but essentially, what you and I see are the same. The same beam of light."
Ning Zhe unloaded the magazine of the pistol, checked it and put it back again, then said:
"Colorless natural light is the objective reality. The prism that distorts colors is the quantum cloud that envelopes this town. The different cognitions held by different people are like standing in different positions in the room. The combination of these factors , resulting in different observations of the same thing."
"For example, when you were under the lotus platform of the Buddha statue, you heard Jiang Han's voice, but I didn't, because I knew he might be dead. and you don't I know.
In your perception, Jiang Han is still alive. The quantum cloud distorts your observations based on your perception, so you observe the wrong facts and hear the voice of Jiang Han who is still alive. .
After I reminded you, you realized that Jiang Han was dead and your 'position' was moved, so you observed another fact. "
As for Jiang. Is Han alive or dead? Who knows.
Perhaps the dead Jiang Han in Ning Zhe's eyes was just an erroneous observation due to different angles. Xia Yubing nodded in understanding: "Then...how do we get out? Return to reality?"
"This is simple. If you want to return to reality, you must observe reality. "Ning Zhe continued:
"According to my guess, people's cognition in this place The farther you deviate from the objective facts, the more serious the observation interference will be, and the farther you will be from the real world.
In other words, just follow this idea and slowly adjust your cognition until the observed world is consistent with the reality. The real world is completely consistent, and you have successfully returned to reality.”
Xia Yubing still had confusion between her brows, but she was much better than before: "Although it's a bit difficult to understand, I roughly know what to do, but...how do we determine what reality is like?"
< br>How can they determine what reality is like when their observation behavior is interfered with by quantum clouds?
I act haphazardly without knowing what the reality is. It’s okay if I’m right, but I’m afraid I’m going in the wrong direction. The more I do, the more I deviate from reality and sink deeper and deeper into the quantum cloud. . What to do?
“This is simple.” Ning Zhe raised his finger and pointed at the four-sided Buddha behind him: “Do you remember the natural light that came in from the window? This is the first light.”
What is true? What is fake? What is objective fact, and who defines it?
The answer to the puzzle has been sitting right at the center of the world since the beginning.
What He thinks is real is real, and even if it is not true, it is also true.
What He considers to be false is false, and even if it is not false, it is also false.
This is the rule of the Erawan Buddha.
"Xiao Ke has died a long time ago. You and I both know this, but she was still as alive and kicking as a living person until not long ago, because the Erawan Buddha thought she was still alive."
They had successfully bribed the three corpses of Xiao Ke to report the fact of her death to the Erawan Buddha, but they did not let the Erawan Buddha know the truth about Xiaoke's death.
The Erawan Buddha does not know that Xiao Ke is dead, so Xiao Ke is still alive.
The Erawan Buddha thinks you are alive, so you are alive.
If the Erawan Buddha thinks you are dead, you will die.
Ning Zhe finally concluded: "In this world, truth and falsehood are all decided by Him, and He is the event benchmark that anchors the entire world."
So we just need to use Him as our anchor and adjust our thoughts.
"So that's it..." Xia Yubing raised her head carefully, looking at the Erawan Buddha with more awe in her eyes: "Then let's get started and return to the real world as soon as possible."
< br>"No rush." Ning Zhe shook his head: "As I said, the above are just speculations based on the information I have."
No matter how precise the reasoning is, it is just reasoning. After verification of facts, whether it is true or not is still open to debate.
"Then do you have any way to verify this conjecture?"
"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth." Ning Zhe removed and reinstalled the magazine of the pistol, opened and closed the safety, and said casually: "Of course there are ways to verify facts, but I need your cooperation."
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?" Xia Yubing stood up quickly, not wanting to delay any longer.
Ning Zhe laughed: "I need you to die."
Before he finished speaking, a bullet passed through Xia Yubing's brainstem again.
