Chapter 508: Think more
When falsehood becomes true, truth is also false, and there is nothing but nothingness.
This is a sentence from "A Dream of Red Mansions".
What the human eye sees is not reality.
You can only see what your brain wants you to see.
Wen Rensheng stayed up half the night, lying on the bed, tossing and turning, all he could think about was the dark illusion and the voices coming out of it.
The ant nest as a source of power?
Could it be that the entire world, or even the entire universe, is an ant nest in the eyes of the other party?
Conquering ant nests as a source of power?
Is this the truth about the mysterious world?
Or is this my own brain, based on past common sense, mainly various guesses, sporadic evidence, and self-summarized truth?
This is normal. When the human eye sees chopsticks in the water, if it is tilted, it will be regarded as bent. The reason is that the brain will not make so many judgments and will only directly use past cognitive experiences to predict it. Because of the refraction of light, straight chopsticks are seen as curved chopsticks.
But no matter what, part of the chopsticks can always be seen...
So those sounds are still useful.
Wen Rensheng thought that in the middle of the night, when it was just dawn, he got up and made a phone call.
Inspector Liu's tired voice came from the other end of the phone. It was obvious that the other party had not slept all night.
"Thank you very much for what happened yesterday. Without you to see us, I'm afraid we have done a useless job again. I wanted to find you, but I was worried that you were tired, so I didn't bother you. You called first. It's really hard work. ." The other party babbled a lot.
"Don't be polite, I have some new key information here for you to analyze..." Wen Rensheng was not in the mood for nonsense and directly told the other party about the vision he saw yesterday.
Of course, Inspector Liu could not remember so much at the same time, but all the calls with Wen Rensheng were fully recorded.
After hearing this, he was silent for a long time.
"Okay, I understand. You have made great contributions to this matter, and I will report it right away."
Of course the Inspection Department has had projects to explore the mysterious world for so many years, and they are among the highest priority.
Just like detecting aliens, even if no trace of aliens is found, there are still projects operating with considerable investment, broadcasting to the universe through radio waves all year round.
And the mysterious world is an obvious existence. Compared with the former, the effort required is more than a thousand times?
Unfortunately, I have not gained much.
Now we have this valuable piece of information from Wen Rensheng. Although it is only second-hand, it is extremely valuable.
…………
A secret meeting was immediately held early in the morning.
Inspector Liu still underestimated the information he submitted.
Almost all the bosses who had nothing to do attended this meeting, and their names and positions were not allowed to be recorded, only their words were recorded.
"That Darfescher? It's the only name that appears in this passage. Who is it? Is it the white-haired disaster, or the dry curse?"
"In comparison, I have Their social structure is even more curious. It seems that they have an education system, and the punishment is very harsh. It is comparable to the magic sect in fantasy novels. The waste will be burned to death, and they have to bring their own dry wood. This means that they There is a punishment more terrible than burning to death, so people voluntarily choose to be burned to death..."
"Waste has no qualifications to survive there. It seems to be a cruel world, and based on our historical experience, it is a cruel world. If you are cruel to yourself, you will only be more cruel to others. It seems that our life will be even more difficult in the future." "They treat us as an ant nest, and they want to gain power from us, and they also want to play gods. The amount of information is huge.”
“Yeah, first of all, they won’t kill us, and secondly, they won’t let me guess what they want to do in order to awe us. ”
"It doesn't sound like the worst outcome, but don't forget that sentence, when falsehood becomes true, truth is also false, and inaction is everywhere and nothing. If the information we hear is actually false, or completely On the contrary, what should I say?”
“We need more evidence. Now we must collect more details.”
“I have a detail here to support it. Some time ago, when the curse of dryness was at its peak, there was a cruise ship from Nanzhu to the Western Continent. Most of the people on board died, and there were only a few people left. Then they encountered an iceberg, and one of the people who had a mental breakdown said The iceberg is a safe place. Everyone else died in the end. Only the mentally broken person survived and was rescued by a passing Dongzhou cargo ship."
"Well, this detail. Very good, it should have been completely destroyed, but he encountered an iceberg. Could an ordinary iceberg save his life? No, it was obvious that the disaster had spared him."
" This is moody and does not allow humans to grasp its thoughts. Whoever it wants to live can live, and whoever it wants to die can die.”
"This situation reminds me of a faint king in our history, and I can compare it with it. It is said that the foolish king wanted to make his subjects afraid of him, so a minister gave him advice and said that he wanted to kill people. Only then would people be afraid of him. So the King of Hun began to be cruel, but there were still people who were not afraid of him. The minister also gave him advice, saying that he should kill the loyal ministers as well as the traitors, so that everyone would be afraid of him. I thought it made sense, so I killed the minister who came up with the idea..."
"Hahaha..."
"Haha"
The heavy conference room. , it is rare to relax and have some relaxing air.
"Okay, although the joke is a joke, it is very real. Why are there all kinds of evil? It is not because ancient humans were afraid of the moody natural world, so various evils occurred, and life and death were also different. Impermanence has given rise to various theories of reincarnation. Human beings are born to fear the unknown, because the unknown means there is no way to resist. It seems that the opponent knows very well about us, the ants in the ant nest."
"Well, this means that all kinds of disasters that will happen in the future will be more difficult or even impossible to solve. We can only survive with the disease and receive palliative treatment."
"Oh, that sounds very pessimistic. , Do we really have to live like our ancestors in ancient times, living in a hellish life of uncertainty and fear? It’s sad, sad, and painful..."
"Maybe it’s better than not being able to do it first. People, at least the ancestors, still have hope, and there are still a few people who can live comfortably, but we are indistinguishable from each other and have nowhere to escape."
Everyone was silent, and no one spoke for a while.
Seeing that the meeting was going to end in vain, someone finally said:
"In short, we may not lose. The message is scary, but it also shows that some ant nests cannot be conquered. Even if it is an ant, how can humans conquer it? It can burrow into the ground and enter the forest. We Isn’t it better than ants?”
“Yes, if we fight with them, we will definitely lose.”
Sometimes we just need this kind of breath, and we don’t have this kind of breath. , and eventually became someone else’s slave.
…………
In the evening, Wen Rensheng finally couldn’t help but call Wei Yiqing.
He asked tentatively: "Master, what did the immortal mean by yesterday's words?"
"I can only tell you, think more about it."
Wei Yiqing obviously knew what happened yesterday Things, it seems that she can also share the memories of immortals.
Think more?
Wen Rensheng fell into deep thought.
Under the window, an ant was crawling quietly. It didn't care about the major events in the human world. It only cared about whether it could find a scattered sprinkle of sugar.
