Chapter 263: Finally Breaking the Code
212120000201100000021210000212120000222001100。
This was the string of numbers behind the original illusion magic book, four years of observation, Lin Qian had already imprinted it in his mind, but it was only now that he really began to delve into the secrets. (PS: This chapter involves middle and high school mathematics, so you should be able to understand it.) )
"It must have something to do with the English language, or even a certain letter or word, otherwise God wouldn't be bored enough to teach a beast to write his own name and tie it into Chubby's memory. Lin Qian thought so.
But it's not easy to figure out the pattern in this 45-digit number, just as he does the most complicated math problem on earth, and the cost of not doing it well is very high.
Jumping off the top of Crowk's head, Lin Qian found a branch, flew to the beach, got his feet off the ground, and began to calculate on the sand.
Observe the rules, this Lin Qian has actually seen it a long time ago, this string of numbers is only 0, 1, 2, this is not like a coincidence, it seems to be deliberate, but how to connect it with English?
Why is there no number 3 or higher? Lin Qian bit his nails and couldn't think of an answer. But when he bit his nails and accidentally bit his fingers, he finally understood.
"Base!It's a ternary!"
The reason why there are only ten kinds of Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 is probably because there are ten human fingers, so the person who invented this number made it into the decimal system, and people who have gone to elementary school and kindergarten should have experienced the days of counting with their fingers, and it is precisely because the decimal system can remind people of their fingers.
In addition to the general phenomenon of decimal, most of the data storage in the computer is binary, with only two numbers, 0 and 1, and of course, other decimal systems, including octal and hexadecimal, which Lin Qian came into contact with. And this ternary system, although Lin Qian has not heard of it, still understands the principle, which is nothing more than multiplying the number on the respective digits by the power of the digits of the base number minus one, and then adding them.
To put it simply, a binary 101 is actually 2 to the 2nd power by 1, plus 2 to the 1st power by 0, plus 2 to the 0th power (except 0, the 0 power of any number is 1) multiplied by 1, which turns into a decimal size of 5. The ternary system is nothing more than replacing the base number 2 with 3, and if it is 101 in the ternary, the actual size is 10.
However, it was obvious that this 45-digit ternary number was difficult for Lin Qian to calculate its actual size, and only counting a 3 to the 45th power was enough for him to spend one night. Lin Qian didn't plan to really calculate, even if he calculated the actual size, what could he do? he still couldn't understand the actual meaning.
"Tera, English letters, what is the connection between these two? The English letters are 26, and the 3rd power of 3 is 27, is it ......" Lin Qian was inexplicably excited. If the number really represents a string of letters, would it be 001 for A, 002 for B, and 010 for C...... 222 corresponds to Z, so that the 45-digit number can be divided into 15 parts, corresponding to an English letter.
The first one is 212, and the actual size is 23, which corresponds to the 23rd letter: W. The second 120, which corresponds to O, and the third ...... 000, the actual size of this number is 0, there should be no corresponding letters, just leave it as a dividing symbol for the time being.
Then he did the math, and he quickly got a string of letters: WO
SI
GU
WO
ZAI。
"It's not English, it's pinyin, and she really takes care of my English level. I...... Die...... Ancient...... I...... In the ......"
Lin Qian read it several times and finally determined the meaning: "I think, therefore I am!"
"It turns out that what she wanted to tell me was this!" Lin Qian was speechless for a while, why didn't he write it directly, he had to write a bunch of digital passwords in such a big circle.
However, he thought about it, if he had known what this sentence meant, he might have been directly erased by the original Offahed after saying the answer, so God would come up with a number that he couldn't understand.
After shaking his head to get rid of distracting thoughts, Lin Qian pondered this sentence carefully. This is a philosophical statement, and the more authoritative explanation is: "I can't deny my existence, because when I deny and doubt, I already exist!" Of course, this sentence is more used in life for its extended meaning: when I use reason to think, I really gain the value of existence.
What is more, an idea has been proposed. No one can prove the existence of their own physical bodies, because all human beings are nothing more than a brain fed with culture in God's laboratory, and everything that is seen, heard, felt, and everything is just a signal transmitted by a special method, processed by the brain, and formed in the mind. Furthermore, there is no way to prove that the world you live in is real, because the world you feel is just a signal received by the brain, and when you don't receive the signal, that is, when God takes your brain out of the culture medium, that is, when you "die".
By extension, the so-called God is just a high-level creature made up by human beings who cannot explain themselves and the origin of life, and even today, when science is so advanced, no one can prove that he exists, and no one can prove that he does not exist, which is one of the reasons why religion has been deeply rooted in people's hearts for a long time. Coupled with the fact that religion is evolving, constantly changing its so-called doctrine to cater to rulers and all kinds of people, religions that can keep up with the times are naturally popular.
Uh, it's far away...... For Lin Qian, these bastards' explanations are all bullshit, all useless things, because he will soon lose his soul, how can he think about it?But God's purpose must be there, and she did everything possible to tell him this, there must be her reason.
"You can't speculate on God's meaning in such a high-level way, and since she will be concerned about my ability to use pinyin to tell me the answer, she will definitely not discuss a deeper philosophical thought with me. What she was going to say should be literal: because I'm thinking, I'm going to exist. I'll exist...... That is to say—I will not die!Huh—God, I have really convinced you, it turns out that you have expected this day, and you have expected that I will have a day when I will not be able to avoid death, so are you telling me the way out?" Lin Qian muttered and looked at the sky, it turned out that he was still under the control of God until now, although God was no longer alive or dead.
Thinking of this, Lin Qian suddenly felt relaxed, with such a powerful god cover, what else was there to fear, even if he was facing death. The ancients said that it was okay to die at night, and the actual situation of Lin Qian now is exactly like this.
Quietly digging out his diary, Lin Qian lit a fire, silently wrote his last diary, put it on the table in the room, and then fell asleep on it with peace of mind.
The next morning, the sun still rises, and it doesn't care what happens in this world, it just acts according to its own laws. Although it brings life to this world, it itself is like a machine, without any emotion, without any signs of life.
Since coming to this world, Lin Qian has never slept as soundly as he did today, until someone called him in his sleep, he opened his eyes lazily, and he didn't seem to pay much attention to him.
"Boy, it's time to get up and die. You're sleeping soundly!" the old fox seemed to be recuperating, and became impatient.
"If you want this body, take it, but old fox, can you promise me a few conditions?" Lin Qian yawned and said casually.
The old fox was stunned for a moment, why did Lin Qian suddenly not want to resist, but he borrowed his entire body, and it was good to listen to him finish speaking.
"First," Lin Qian snapped his fingers and said, "These two elven women are my wife, you can't hurt them, I've used magic to put them to sleep." After you take possession of my body, fly directly to the northwest, and you will be able to see the islands of the South Sea. With your strength, it is also feasible to take a walk around the South Seas, and you can also stop by to see what plans they have. ”
"Yes, yes. The old fox was a little strange, Lin Qian just put forward the conditions, why did he still tell him his situation, was it because he was afraid that he would not agree, so he moved with affection?
"Second, you can't use my identity, anyway, there are very few people on the mainland who recognize me now, I'm afraid your identity is not reliable, and your voice can't be concealed, it's too old. ”
"I'll use magic to change back to Opheshid's face, and I don't want to put on your face. The old fox snorted with disdain, and he disdained to use this method to obtain benefits.
"Thirdly, the current Magic Guild is my legacy to several ladies, I know you won't miss this piece of fat, if you win by luck, please spare my woman. ”
"How many more conditions do you have?" the old fox became impatient.
"And the last one, I don't think you'll refuse, is about Elena. Lin Qian said solemnly.
"Hmm, what's wrong with her?" the old fox clearly cared about his only student.
Lin Qian sighed and said leisurely: "Although you are not her father, please take good care of her, I am afraid that she will not be able to accept this news when she knows it." ”
The old fox was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked vigilantly, "You kid, you shouldn't have done anything to her, right?"
"What do you mean?" Lin Qian said, "If it's physical, no." But mentally, I think I'll probably be hated by her for the rest of my life. ”
The old fox snorted coldly, and then said: "I didn't expect that your kid is still a merciless scourge, but that's okay, I don't have any psychological burden to kill you, let's go on the road with peace of mind!"
Lin Qian silently closed his eyes, he suddenly felt a pain in his brain like a pinprick, and his consciousness was slowly lost, he knew that the old fox had made a move, but he resisted the urge to resist, and let his soul be devoured by him piece by piece, and finally his mind was empty......
