Chapter 604: Self-Awareness
This is what the person in charge of the country called Liuyang never expected, Liu Suifeng did not necessarily become a fire attribute, but an independent existence from this subdued heavenly fire, and then it turned out to be able to switch between two more attributes, no attribute and fire attribute at will.
And it turned out that something like Tianhuo could also have its own consciousness, which was also something that the authorities of Liuyang Kingdom never expected, originally they were a thing like a flame that could not have an autonomous consciousness.
But now I didn't expect that this heavenly fire could also exist in its own independent consciousness, after all, this heavenly fire was not an ordinary flame, it came from afar above the sun in the universe, which is very far away from the earth.
This is also the first time that people have become aware of the question of what it means to have autonomous consciousness.
It is not yet certain what can have its own consciousness, but the only thing that is certain is that human beings undoubtedly have their own consciousness.
After all, if human beings didn't have self-awareness, that is, this kind of thinking cognition, now Liu Suifeng and they wouldn't be discussing such a complicated thing, maybe like other animals, that is, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, and then mating and reproducing.
But even those animals that are not advanced to humans are self-aware, but they are not as advanced as humans, and no human beings can think about such complex things.
Animals other than humans are also self-aware, which is something that most people can accept, but apart from humans and animals, there are other things that are self-aware, and that is very difficult for people to accept.
Don't talk about strange things such as flame stones, even if plants are self-aware, I'm afraid that almost all people don't think that plants are self-aware.
After all, those plants that barely move are self-aware, and this is a little too scary to think about, plants have self-consciousness, that is, plants are like other animals, even like humans.
In other words, many people may not feel shy about untying their hands under a tree in the wild, but if a dog is watching you when untying their hands, it may make you a little nervous and unable to pee.
After all, you don't know what this dog means by watching you, maybe it's a male dog who hasn't eaten for too long and plans to eat something about you to satisfy his hunger.
But that's fine, but if it's a female dog, and it's not just because you haven't eaten a fish for too long and you're hungry but want to eat something, but you want to contribute to the sacred vision of the reproduction of the offspring of the race, but there is a male dog who is not suitable, and then suddenly sees this male in the wild, and then suddenly on a whim, wants to have a warning feeling beyond the species, and then pounces on it, it's a little not good.
If the assumption is worse, it's that it's not a male dog or a female dog that finds out that your little tree in the wild has changed its little hand, but a real person.
If it's a man, you'll be embarrassed, and if it's a woman, you'll be even more embarrassed, but if nothing happens, there's no male dog or female dog, there's no man and no woman, it's a very pleasant thing to let you quietly untie your hands in the wild.
Why is that?
Because whether it's a male dog or a female dog or a man or a woman, it's a self-aware thing that appears in front of you, and you're doing a private thing like untying your little hands, and of course you feel uncomfortable.
But if there is no male dog and no female dog, no man and no woman, and just having a tree in front of you, then there is no problem at all.
I think normal people generally don't pee because there is a tree in front of him, right? Even a tree will make people more relaxed.
After all, this is how to expose your baby to the air nakedly, even if no one looks at it, it will make people feel a little embarrassed, but there are some plants and trees to cover it, it is much better.
Why is there such a difference?
That's because the person who pees doesn't think that the tree in front of him is conscious, that is, the tree doesn't see or hear anything, and it doesn't think, it's like a stone.
But if this tree is self-aware, isn't that terrifying?
Not only is there some embarrassment when facing a situation next time, after all, in front of other people's old trees, you directly take out your big baby for that kind of intimate activity, which is indeed a bit embarrassing.
And not only in that case, but also in many of the following situations that can be weird, and even creepy because of the self-consciousness that the tree has.
For example, one day you walked silently on a gloomy path, and the path was still cloudy and windy, and then you found that there was something behind you staring at you silently, and when you looked back, it was a tree with a neat and neat face, which was indeed a little hairy.
So if plants are also self-conscious, I'm afraid many people will not be able to accept it.
But whether plants are self-aware or not is not something that humans have determined.
Although in most people's impressions, plants are of course good animals and different things, and they are different from human beings, of course, they are not self-conscious, and even like things like stones or flames, they have no self-consciousness and cannot think.
But this is just what human beings have been thinking for a long time, but there is no evidence to show that plants are really the same as human imagination, that is, unconscious, but just human beings think so.
The reason why human beings have been thinking like this for a long time is because the activity of plants is so slow compared to that of humans and animals that it is almost impossible for people to see that they are moving, so people will think that plants are not self-conscious like humans and other animals, but are like non-living creatures such as stones, which are not self-conscious, that is, they are not alive.
