Yuan Xian sat in the seat near the window, but because the vacuum tube train was basically running underground, there was no scenery outside the window, just a consistently calm pitch black. The bright warm yellow lights add a sense of tranquility to the entire carriage, as if it were a clear night, which makes many passengers sleep peacefully.

Yuan Xian was not a little sleepy, it was only an hour from City B to City X, as long as he found something to pass the time, it would pass in a while. It just so happened that she had something like that on hand.

During the few days she lived at Zhong Li's house, Zhong Li taught her how to draw illustrations. Although as early as when she was a student, the art class at the school had popularized this basic art education for each of them, but what really made her feel interesting about this kind of painting was Zhong Li.

"You have to have a technique to draw, but what is really valuable is what you want to express. Ever since Duchamp exhibited the urinal at the Louvre, the work of art has died, rather reduced to a medium of communication between the viewer and the artist. This is one of the directions in the development of art, self-expression. So you just need to draw what you want to draw according to your mood and feel comfortable running your hands on the paper, and that's it. As for technique, it's a habit of expression that you form in order to express something. ”

Zhong Li's statement made her dare to show her not superb painting skills, at least as a good way to pass the time and cultivate her self-cultivation. She spread a piece of cardboard slightly larger than her hand on the small table in front of her seat, and then drew it bit by bit with a small pencil on the ny's head.

There are some unknown classical light music ringing in her ears, she doesn't like the things that are popular at the moment, she doesn't want to have any soul collision with those so-called art seekers. Under the quiet music, the black lines gradually outlined the shape of the plum blossom on the white paper, and she didn't know why she thought of the plum blossom, but she felt that it was very comfortable to draw it.

"Young lady, can you paint, can you do art?"

Yuan Xian heard someone talking to her, and turned her head to see that it was a white-skinned thin man wearing a silver reflective material windbreaker with dyed white hair and gold translucent framed glasses.

"Draw and play." Out of politeness, Yuan Xian replied, and then continued to paint.

The man seemed to realize that his accosting had not attracted the attention of the girl in red, so he sat quietly again, returning to his identity as a stranger.

When he was about to arrive at the station, Yuan Xian got up to take his luggage, and the man also got up and asked, "Do you want to help you get something?" ”

Yuan Xian's luggage was only a slightly larger backpack, and she just reached out and took it off the luggage rack. "No need." She felt as if the man was eyeing her, so she didn't even say thank you. However, this kind of accosting is not uncommon for Yuan Xian.

The man made a gesture of regret and pulled an oversized silver suitcase from the luggage rack. The moment the box came down, Yuan Xian subconsciously dodged it, thinking that this thin man would be brought down by this luggage, but the result was that he caught the box steadily, and then put it on the ground effortlessly.

"It's the same station." The man said to Yuan Xian.

Yuan Xian nodded slightly in embarrassment, and waited for him to walk out of his seat, followed by others, before she walked out of her seat.

It wasn't a long time to get home from the station, but the old city walls of City X and other familiar locations along the way made her quickly forget about the man who was a little uncomfortable for her to talk to.

"Coming back?"

Pushing open the door of the house was a familiar greeting from his father, but this time Yuan Xian found a trace of haggard breath on that vicissitudes of life and smiling face.

"What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Qizhi probably also noticed that Yuan Xian said that his complexion was wrong, so he replied: "I didn't sleep well." ”

"Is there something wrong, the last time you called, I thought you were in trouble."

"It's nothing," Yuan Qizhi said as he made tea for an unknown amount of time to give Yuan Xian a cup, "It's Gu Yu who proposed a contract for an artificial intelligence human learning system, and I want to discuss it with you." ”

Yuan Xian took off his coat, changed into his white rabbit head slippers, threw his luggage at the door, sat on the sofa and drank two sips of water. "What are you going to discuss with me, haven't you never told me about your program?"

"I didn't tell you, you don't know the basics. What else do you want me to say, program algorithms? Yuan Qizhi patted Yuan Xian's head, "I want to ask you, do you think that in the world of "Separation and Combination", you need to be able to reproduce." Of course, this life is just a simulated life, or a bunch of data. However, through the system, it can be simulated to be infinitely close to real life. ”

As soon as this question was raised, Yuan Xian's mind immediately thought that there would be a bunch of dolls around him after he removed his armor. Although she hadn't thought of having a child with Zhong Li yet, if there was a man standing next to her at this time, she couldn't think of anyone else except Zhong Li. If you can reproduce in the division and integration, even if it is not a real life, it is also a very interesting thing, and you will even have feelings for it.

However, perhaps it was this small stay at Zhong Li's house that made Yuan Xian feel that although the various feelings in the game are almost exactly the same as in reality, the feeling of meeting each other and then snuggling up to each other in reality is still a little, but crucial, different from the game. I don't know why, I miss it in the game, I like it, and I like it, and I will be excited because of the contact. But in reality, there seems to be something that can't be found, but can be perceived, which was opened when the two came into contact, which made her realize for the first time that there was a difference in the experience of the two worlds.

"I think it's really interesting to be able to marry someone you like in a game and be born into a child in that world. Because of this, the game will definitely be extremely popular as well. ”

Yuan Qizhi realized that Yuan Xian was thinking more than she said, so he asked again: "It's just interesting, not necessary?" ”

"I know you're trying to make that world completely real and independent, and if that's the case, it's really necessary. But ......"

"But what?"

"As long as this game is played by people, I am afraid that it will not be able to become a real and independent world. At least people have to be here, or the stealth warehouse has to have electricity, but it still has to be limited by the conditions here. ”

"You mean the world over there is a fake no matter what you do?"

Yuan Xian saw that Yuan Qizhi was a little anxious to defend his work, so he avoided this topic of truth and falsehood. "How to do it is your work, so whether this kind of system is added or not depends on how far you want to complete it."

Yuan Xian talked about the conversation to the beginning in one sentence, so Yuan Qizhi had to change his way of asking straight to the point: "Then I'll send you the contract she gave me directly, and see if you have any ideas." With that, he pulled up the file from his wristband and sent it to Yuan Xian.

The dense words were slowly arranged on the blue holographic screen, and the content that Yuan Xian saw at first glance was the same as Yuan Qizhi's, which was Gu Yu's identity.

"She's an independent intelligence officer, agent?" Although it was a little unexpected, it was reasonable to think of her previous things. "I said how can she be so proficient in war, and she can even do it."

"Otherwise, why would he let me sign a contract with her?"

Yuan Xian read the contract one by one, "What does the whole contract mean that the operation of this game must be operated under the supervision of the Security Bureau?" ”

"Almost, just to keep me from spreading the human learning system."

"Then they won't end up taking the program for themselves?" Yuan Xian asked.

"I've thought about it, but I probably won't. With their strength, if they really want to get the program, when they know that I am working on this thing, they will directly attack, and there is no need to talk to me about these rules. ”

"If it's guaranteed, I think it's okay." Yuan Xian pondered for a moment and said.

When Yuan Qizhi heard the answer, he leaned forward and asked, "Have you looked carefully?" Look at Article 31. ”

Yuan Xian turned to Article 31. "Party A shall destroy the AI Humane Learning System before its death, or after its death, the ownership of the game, server, and content related to the AI-based Humane Learning System shall be handed over to Party B." She said it silently in her heart.

"Does that mean this game will live and die with you?"

Yuan Qizhi pondered for a while before saying, "I mean, you don't want me to leave it to you?" ”

Yuan Xian understood what his father meant, this thing was definitely the most handy thing he had ever made in his life. "Do you want to talk to her again and let the ownership of the game fall into my hands?"

"At least don't go with me."

Yuan Xian wanted to respect her father's decision according to her habit and let him talk to Gu Yu again, but she still remembered clearly at this time when she left Zhong Li, and she wanted to talk more about her own opinions, even if it was not necessarily what her father liked to hear, but it would be of practical help to him. "Do you want to hear what I think?"

"Am I not asking?"

In the time that Yuan Xian was brewing, the firm flame in his eyes began to burn little by little. "If you want to leave me a possessions, or a memorial, I don't think it's necessary to give me all the game, because I don't know how it works, and I can only end up ruining it in my hands. But if you say that this is your life's work and you want me to continue it, I just don't understand, and I will find a way to run it. That's what I think, the rest is up to you, and I'm for you. ”

Yuan Qizhi listened to his daughter's words, and for some reason his eyes were a little moist. He controlled his emotions and said, "Girl, that's what I think. Your father can do this in his life, and I can't protect you in other fields. If you are here, Zhong Li or anyone, you are the young master of Shuoguo, and you like to find whomever you like. But here, what kind of life you can live, I don't count. ”

At this moment, Yuan Xian only thought that this was what a father said to a daughter, but he didn't know that Yuan Qizhi spoke with a taste of farewell. "Dad, don't you think too much, I'm responsible for what kind of life I live, you brought me up, your task has been completed, the rest of the things are not something you have to manage, even if you have the ability, you may not be able to manage it if you want to. How my life is, what you want to do, what Zhong Li wants, it doesn't have much to do with it. ”

Yuan Qizhi grinned when he heard this, "Silly girl, you are still too young!" ”

Just when Yuan Xian was thinking about what words to use to make his father understand that he was not a child, the doorbell that had not moved for thousands of years actually thought. Yuan Qizhi saw through the wrist screen that there was a person he didn't know outside the door, so he asked, "Who are you?" ”

didn't wait for the other party to answer, Yuan Xian first discovered an incredible scene from the screen, it turned out that this person was the gray-haired man he saw on the train just now and wanted to talk.
