Chapter 40: Where Are They?

It was noon, and Sun Hao drove the car on the way back to the city. This time he didn't object to me playing the piano music, I think maybe this trip made him a little tired, Wang Huan didn't object, she kept looking out of the car window, her eyes were empty and distant with a hint of grievance. Luxue seemed to be asleep, resting her head on my shoulder from time to time, and I gently removed it from time to time, and after a few times she finally leaned on my shoulder as she wished, and I was finally pressed against the window. Zhang Hui, who received the same treatment as me, was much better, Feng Xiaolu leaned on his shoulder and dozed off, while Zhang Hui gently hugged her and snuggled together, looking at him very relaxed, and seemed to have a trace of enjoyment. I turned my head to look at Lu Xue, who was still smiling in her sleep, then at my own hands, took a deep breath, and shook my head gently.

Poof, Zhou Ying, who was sitting in the back row, finally couldn't hold back, and was still amused by my embarrassment.

I turned my head and looked at her, and she forced a smile and looked at me. I shook my head slightly, turned back again, closed my eyes gently, and fell asleep. If you can't dodge it, try to bear it. If I fell asleep, it wouldn't seem so embarrassing. I thought.

"Can't hide, Xiaoshan, everything is doomed." Half-asleep, I heard Zhou Ying say quietly.

I opened my eyes suddenly, turned my head, and looked at her, but she didn't look at me, but looked out the window, still with a smile that was not smiling, which was very intriguing.

"What did you say?"

"Oh, I didn't say anything." Zhou Ying replied with a chuckle, her tone indistinguishable whether she was denying or covering up.

"Oh." I nodded, "Maybe I was nervous and misheard." ”

"If you're surprised, you can't be normal." Wang Huan withdrew his gaze from the window, glanced at me, and said something in a non-yin or yang manner.

I turned around helplessly, all sleepy, maybe I was too big just now, Lu Xue was also awakened, when I turned back, I saw her smiling apologetically at me, I nodded slightly, signaling that she was nothing.

"What's wrong, husband?" Feng Xiaolu seemed to have also woken up, and asked in a daze.

"Xiaoshan is nervous, you can sleep." Zhang Hui said softly.

"Oh." Feng Xiaolu answered, leaned her head on Zhang Hui again, sat up straight again after a while, and asked me with resentment, "Xiaoshan, you don't hurt me." ”

"Oh, don't you have sleeping pills with you?" I looked at her and replied.

"We're out on a tour, why do we take that with you?" Feng Xiaolu roared angrily.

"People are very excited when traveling, so they often have insomnia, so that's also a must-have for travel." I replied.

"You, really, tell me, what woke me up just now? I will never forgive you if you don't say it. ”

"Don't ask." Zhang Hui and Sun Hao both whispered helplessly.

"It's nothing, I heard someone talking to me when I was half asleep just now, I thought it was Zhou Ying."

"Oh, what did Zhou Ying say to him just now?" Feng Xiaolu asked Zhou Ying again.

Zhou Ying didn't answer, just shook her head lightly with the corners of her mouth.

"Look, Zhou Ying said that she didn't say it, you heard it wrong, wait, do you think this will be a supernatural event?" Feng Xiaolu seemed to be interested, and asked with a glint in her eyes.

"Probably not, maybe I just misheard."

"Is it possible?" Feng Xiaolu suddenly asked very seriously.

Zhang Hui and Sun Hao snickered and glanced at each other, both shrugged their shoulders, and then glanced at me again, which seemed to mean that the brother should ask for more blessings.

I don't want to say too much about supernatural things, after all, it's something that has no empirical evidence, but looking at Feng Xiaolu with a serious face, I know that if I don't give her an answer, then she won't give up.

"Possibly." I replied uncertainly.

"Oh, that's it, then may I ask Xiaoshan-san, what do you think about the supernatural event?"

Looking at Feng Xiaolu with a novel face, I felt a little numb in my scalp, "I didn't say that it was, but it was possible." ”

"Oh." She looked at me with a smirk, as if waiting for my next step.

I thought about it for a moment and said calmly, "Let's go back to the beginning, the core of all paranormal events comes from the soul, but the soul is an unproven problem, so I think I just had an auditory hallucination." ”

"It's also possible that you've been suppressing your emotions, so you'll subconsciously flow out when you're tired, which is the same question as the interrogation of prisoners of war in the movie, until he reveals the information after he collapses from exhaustion, it's just a kind of hypnosis." Zhang Hui said lightly.

"Oh." Feng Xiaolu nodded as if she didn't understand.

I nodded slightly.

"Wait, we're talking about supernatural events, how did it turn to hypnosis, I just want to ask, can you be sure that what happened just now has nothing to do with supernatural events?" Feng Xiaolu's eyes widened, and she questioned me again.

"No," I shook my head, "all paranormal events originate from the soul, so all paranormal events cannot be determined until the soul exists." ”

"Then if there really is a soul, then the supernatural event can be established."

"Yes, but to prove this hypothesis, you need examples."

"Example?"

"Yes, where are they? If all living things have souls, then the number of souls created by the number of all life on earth throughout the ages is absolutely astronomical, but there is no empirical evidence in the face of such astronomical figures, so it is difficult to say that souls are real. I replied.

"It's just that people haven't met yet, right?" Feng Xiaolu said uncertainly.

"No, there is a contradiction between the arguments of scale and probability and the scarcity of evidence, so I also think that the soul does not exist." Zhang Hui also said.

"Really?" Feng Xiaolu still didn't seem to want to believe it.

"The Fermi paradox, but there's another saying about the Fermi paradox, which is that there are things that exist, but people haven't discovered yet." Zhou Ying chuckled and said the same lightly.

"yes, yes, maybe they just didn't find out, or they ran somewhere else before people found out." Feng Xiaolu seemed to be excited again, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

"Am I wrong, didn't Lu Xue say it, maybe the soul exists at the same time, how to say that, what the past and the future exist at the same time." Feng Xiaolu looked at everyone laughing and was confused, and explained randomly.

"You're right, but that's just speculation." I nodded.

"That means it's still possible, it's like that entanglement, which can only change when you observe, so ah, I say the soul too, it's just that people haven't found a way."

I shook my head, "Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon and has instances. ”

"Didn't I say it, it's just that people haven't found a way, but it doesn't mean that souls don't exist, right, Xiaoshan?"

I nodded, frowned, and asked, "I can't be sure, but why haven't we found any evidence related to souls?" ”

"I know? Besides, even if the soul really exists, it can't just wait for you to discover it in one place, people can't walk around, travel, move," Feng Xiaolu said angrily with a pout. ”

Everyone was provoked by Feng Xiaolu again, and I shook my head and no longer paid attention to Feng Xiaolu's nonsense.

After everyone smiled, Zhou Ying suddenly said to Sun Hao, "Sun Hao, when you go to the city in a while, go to the real estate agency to take a look, the house I rent is about to expire, go first to see if there is a suitable one." ”

"Oh, your house is about to expire? Then you live in the place I rent now, my house has been renovated, it's time to go back to accompany my mother, if you come over, my sister can still have someone to be a companion and talk. Sun Hao thought about it for a while.

"Well, it's not okay, I'm afraid of disturbing Xiao Luxue." Zhou Ying said and looked at Lu Xue meaningfully, and then at me.

"Don't bother, if you come, I can really rest assured." Sun Hao also said meaningfully.

"Wait, won't Luxue go back with you?" I interjected.

"It's close to school, and you don't want her to walk too far to school every day." Sun Hao said lightly.

I nodded.

Later, I heard Sun Hao muttering to himself in an inaudible voice, "Take her back, what are you kidding, I finally got rid of this girl." In the end, he shook his head helplessly.

I don't know if Lu Xue heard Sun Hao's whispered to herself, she just smiled quietly and listened, without agreeing or objecting, as if she didn't object to being abandoned like this. I only heard her whisper, "Brother, I'm bothering you this time." ”

"Don't bother, you're my sister, what's the trouble." Sun Hao replied politely.

"Oh, then you can take me back too, I miss my aunt too."

"Huh?" Sun Hao screamed in astonishment, causing everyone to laugh again.

"Do you really want to move back?" Wang Huan looked at Sun Hao and asked, there seemed to be a tremor in his voice.

"Ah, yes, it's time to go back." Sun Hao stammered, and his words flickered.

"Oh, okay then." Wang Huan's voice was very flat, as if the trembling just now was just our illusion.

I didn't look back at Wang Huan, but from her tone, I could tell that her mood was very uncalm now, or should I say it was very bad, this feeling was very similar to every time she opened the express package, it was a lonely mood after being full of anticipation and suddenly disappointed.

Xu Yes, everyone felt Wang Huan's loss. There was a sudden silence in the carriage, and it fell into a strange and awkward atmosphere.

After a while, Feng Xiaolu whispered with hesitation, "Why don't we talk about the soul again?" ”

This time everyone didn't laugh, and the cabin was still quiet, and the atmosphere was very different. Feng Xiaolu took a long breath, and seemed to be annoyed by her unobtrusive proposal.

"The soul, in fact, many things are similar to the soul. It's hard to say whether it exists or not, you say it doesn't exist, it seems that many times you seem to feel it, you say it exists, you don't know where it is, you want to follow it but you don't see it, if you think it exists, just put it in your heart, there's no need to prove anything. Wang Huan turned out of the window again, looked at the street scene that flew by, and said faintly.
