"I still don't understand, is it true that enlightened people are like you and me...... Belch...... Superpowers?" In fact, Qin Kai has felt that this is a superpower since he was a child.

"Haha, superpowers!? This is not a superpower, but a perception of how the world works. Xia Xiaoai shook her fingers and said in a very old-fashioned manner.

"Feelings? This is what I have learned since I was a child, what kind of perception is it. ”

"Enlightened people are divided into innate enlightenment and acquired enlightenment, and you, like me, are people who belong to innate enlightenment. In our association, there is a saying that the world is actually simulated, like a computer system, and the Tao is the code that resembles a computer program. You can deduce the things of a person's life through the eight characters of his birth, which is equivalent to reading the program code that belongs to him, so of course you can deduce his life. ”

"The world is analog, interesting. Qin Kai thought to himself, the girl in front of him was really speechless, and she could actually say such a theory.

"Yes, you see, when I looked back with you just now, I had that kind of scene because I understood a little bit of the 'Tao' about image rendering in this world, so that I could guide you to see the world that was not rendered. ”

"Just like in a 3D game, if the player moves too fast, they may see that the map has not been fully rendered?" Qin Kai suddenly understood, and immediately asked by inference.

"That's really understanding, by the way, I don't know what your name is. Xia Xiaoai stood on tiptoe, patted Qin Kai's shoulder with a big hand, pretended to be a brother and sister, and asked.

"My name is Qin Kai. I remember what you just said about the association, what is that?"

"This is the only association in the country that gathers enlightened people!"

"Where is it? Can I go and take a look?" Qin Kai was very curious about the "same kind".

"Let's go together, the president should be there now. ”

"No. 222 Jianshe Road?!" Qin Kai couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard that it was exactly where he was going, and quickly took out his mobile phone and put it in front of him to check.

"What, you know?" Xia Xiaoai elbowed Qin Kai and looked at his phone, but because he was too short, he couldn't see the content of his phone.

"I used to have a dream a lot, but the content of the dream was very hazy, I couldn't see anything, I couldn't hear, and I couldn't remember what I dreamed when I woke up. But I just know that these dreams are the same dream! Recently, this dream has become clearer and clearer, and I vaguely see a door number in the dream, that is!" As he spoke, Qin Kai handed the mobile phone to Xia Xiaoai, which was the door and door number he drew according to the dream.

"That's it! This is our association! Then I'll take you to see it now!" Xia Xiaoai shouted in surprise when she saw it.

"Let's go, I'm here to find Anseong. I searched many cities and finally found it. ”

……

Anseong is located at the junction of the three rivers, and it is said that traces of ancient humans have been found here. At the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was a small fishing village, but thanks to the introduction of Soviet technology and the construction of hydropower stations in the upper reaches of the river, a large number of people quickly gathered to settle here.

However, due to the limited plains of Anseong, there are hills on both sides, so after the reform and opening up, development gradually stopped, resulting in the streets here today full of a sense of age.

The two soon arrived at their destination and found that it was an old building, only one floor. The exterior of the house is covered with rows of small vertical white tiles, and the withered creepers are sparse and sparsely surrounding the entire wall, which looks very desolate.

In the center of the house, on top of the traditional iron sliding door, there is a "" door number, and the light bulb outside the door flickers on and off, shining with a light that does not belong to this era, which looks mysterious and strange.

"Knock~knock~knock~" Xia Xiaoai clenched her fists and knocked on the door a few times, but there was no movement inside.

Suddenly, she stood a meter away from the door, turned her back to the door, and then looked back sharply, and said, "Is the president inside?"

"You... Can you see through?Isn't that able to see people through clothes?!" Qin Kai looked at Xia Xiaoai in surprise and asked.

"yes, what's wrong? It's normal, but I can only see it once, because the rendering of clothes is not as fast as the body. Xia Xiaoai said as a matter of course, she has been like this since she was a child, so she doesn't feel anything wrong.

"No, nothing. Qin Kai consciously covered his hand downward.

"Hey, the president is not here, where did he go?" Xia Xiaoai looked at the door again and muttered to herself.

"What about the rest of you?" Qin Kai asked tentatively.

"For the time being, there are only two people here, me and the president, and the other one is said to have a mission outside and hasn't come back yet. I haven't met him since I came in. ”

"What?!Two people in an association?!"

"Two people are like this, don't underestimate our association, we are responsible for all the supernatural events around Anseong. Xia Xiaoai clasped her hands on her chest and said proudly.

"What kind of association are you?" Qin Kai became more and more confused by her.

"Wait, I'll look for it. As she spoke, Xia Xiaoai took a look at the iron gate, and then found a dusty wooden sign in a pile of waste, she stood up the sign, dusted off the ashes, and read out a few large characters written with a brush on it, "Enlightened Association." ”

Qin Kai lowered his head and looked at the sign carefully, only to see that there was a line of small words below: professional ghost catching, exorcism, and solving various incurable diseases.

He asked, "Why does it look like a magic stick?" ”

Xia Xiaoai was not happy when she heard this, and said: "What a magic stick! Aren't you still a fortune teller! Our association must always earn funds, otherwise who will pay the rent and who will recruit people?"

"You're still hiring?"

"Yes, do you want to join, you are also an enlightened one, come along, and we can still guarantee your safety. ”

"Safety, what danger can I have?"

"Speaking of which, I'm going to tell you, you are helping people to tell fortunes in public today, if you cause a sensation and alarm the 'observers'", your life will be in danger. Xia Xiaoai said seriously, this is today's contact, it is rare for her to speak in such a serious tone.

"Observer, what is this?" Qin Kai heard a new vocabulary again, and since he came into contact with Xia Xiaoai, he had been instilled with a new worldview.

"There's a guest!" a man's steady and thick voice sounded behind him.

"President!" Xia Xiaoai said excitedly.

Qin Kai followed the prestige, and saw a man about 40 years old walking out of the shadow of the street, he was wearing a gray tunic, and the feet were wearing simple black cloth shoes, which really looked a bit like a ...... at first glance Catch ghosts.

When the man passed by Qin Kai's side, his deep eyes stayed in his deep for five or six seconds, then nodded thoughtfully, and then picked up the key and opened the door.

When the three of them entered the door together, the man took Qin Kai to a shabby sofa, motioned for him to sit down, and said to Xia Xiaoai, "Xiao Ai, make tea for the guests." ”

"President, he's not a guest, he's also an enlightened being, and I discovered him. He can deduce the events of that person's life through the eight characters of other people's birthdays. Xia Xiaoai said in a coquettish tone, as if she wanted to wait for the man to praise her for finding a baby.

"Oh?" the man seemed to have a plan in his heart, and he was not much surprised, and said to Qin Kai, "My name is Lin Mad, the madness of a madman." ”

"Lin Mad, this is a nickname, right?" Qin Kai's first reaction was that he felt that this was a nickname, and it turned out that he was right.

"It doesn't matter what it was originally called, I've been called Lin Crazy for decades, and it's been called too much, so it naturally becomes my name. Lin said with a smile.

"Why do people call you crazy?" Qin Kai asked puzzled.

"Elder him, through meditation, he can travel his consciousness between the world of life and death. Since he was a child, he would see a lot of ghosts in his dreams, and when he woke up, he would go crazy and shout that there were ghosts, ghosts, and his parents and friends thought he was crazy since he was a child, so they called him crazy. Xia Xiaoai interjected.

"The world of life and death is just a simulated world, in fact, they are all in the same world, but in modern terms, the 'parameters' of the two worlds are different, and I can enter that world through dreams or meditation since I was a child. Lin explained with a smile.

"I heard Xiao Ai say 'observer' just now, what is that?" Qin Kai wanted to ask as long as he heard something here that he didn't understand. Just like that dream, since it led him here, it will surely let him find the answer.

When Lin Mad heard that Qin Kai mentioned the observer, he glanced at Xia Xiaoai helplessly and said, "This girl, her mouth is really big, and she can't keep any secrets." But since you're also an enlightened person, I'll just say it. Although this world is simulated, the people who created this world will send many human beings called 'observers' to live in this world in order to make the whole world think that this world is real. ”

He paused for a moment and continued, "The task of the observer is to prevent ordinary humans in this world from discovering some loopholes or 'ways' in their lives. ”

"Loopholes?" Qin Kai didn't quite understand.

"Since the world is simulated, let's count it as a system for the time being, and the system will definitely have loopholes, don't you understand?" Xia Xiaoai said.

"Oh, I see, President Lin, you go on. ”

"For example, in recent decades, human beings have been studying particles more and more close to the origin of the world, and observers have modified the physical rules of reality in order to prevent human beings from studying the origin of this world, so as to interfere with people's continued research, such as the famous 'double-slit interference experiment' (note: it is recommended to check the Internet by yourself, a very interesting phenomenon, some people because of this, put forward the statement that the world is virtual) is actually the observer is making trouble. ”。

"Xiao Ai said that if I alarm the observers, I will be in danger, what is the danger?"

"You'll be cleared!" Lin Mad said with a solemn face, his tone low and firm.
