Chapter 156 Character Determines Destiny
With Wang Yang's analysis and spiritual support, Neo finally didn't get sick on the spot. But he staggered back to the rest pod, where he fell headlong and fell into a groggy sleep.
Seeing Morpheus at a loss, Wang Yang turned his head and asked, "Am I very heartless?" β
Everyone looked at him with strange eyes, not knowing how to answer.
- At least, it's true that you're hurting us.
================================= the dividing line of make-up classes =================================
Three days later, Morpheus came to Neo's rest cabin and saw Neo sitting quietly alone in the corner of the room, and Morpheus slowly walked over to sit next to him and watch him.
After a moment of silence, Neo said in a daze, "I can't go back, right?" β
Morpheus asked rhetorically, "If you could, would you really want to go back?" β
Neo was silent.
Morpheus whispered: "Neo, I apologize to you, we have a rule that we must not liberate the hearts of adults, because this is very dangerous, adults will not be able to accept the truth, I have seen it." I'm sorry to do that, I did it because I had no choice. β
Neo looked at him curiously.
After taking a look at Neo, Morpheus continued: "When the Matrix took shape, there was a person born in it, who had the ability to change the Matrix at will and recreate the real world. He freed the first rebels, and he told us the truth that as long as the Matrix exists, humanity will not be free. After his death, a prophet prophesied that he would come again, bringing about the destruction of the Matrix and the end of the war and the freedom of all mankind. So we spent our lives wandering the Matrix trying to find a savior, and I did it because I believed I had found it. After staring at Neo, Neo turned his head and looked back at him in disbelief.
Morpheus then stood up and patted Neo on the shoulder: "Rest well!" You need to be trained. β
Watching Morpheus walk out, Neo suddenly asked, "Why not Wang Yang?" β
Morpheus paused at the door: "I don't know. After saying that, he opened the door and left.
Early the next morning, Neo's training began, and just like in the movies, he quickly showed his unusual qualities, first learning all the kung fu with hunger, and then defeating Morpheus in a newly written fighting program, but still not passing the jumping program in the endγγγγγγ The performance is not amazing, but with Wang Yang Zhuyu in front, the crew of the Nebuganezzar is no longer surprised.
As for Wang Yang, he had already entered the battle sequence of the Nebuganezzar and became an official member. Except for being on duty, Wang Yang hadn't touched an auxiliary drive for a long time. Usually he was fiddling with a lot of machine parts in his rest cabin and main cabin, and he didn't know what he was doing. And the stuff he tinkered with, even the operator Tank and the programmer Mauss couldn't understand. Thanks to the miraculous effect brought by the cultivation of internal force, in the eyes of everyone, he seemed to have infinite energy and inspiration, and it didn't take long for no one to continue to come to him to receive blows.
The issue of the savior aura of Wang Yang and Neo became the focus of private controversy on the Nebuganezzar.
"I still think the savior is Wang Yang." Mauss has now become a fan of Wang Yang, and is extremely obsessed with Wang Yang's magical internal strength and light skills. And has been looking forward to worshipping Wang Yang as a teacher, learning the legendary internal force, and even promised to introduce his sister in Zion to Wang Yang, according to himself, his sister is quite punctual. But Wang Yang has always refused, in addition to a few tigresses in the backyard are still eyeing him, the most important thing is that Mauss's personality jumps out, and he is too addicted to the desires of nature - eating breakfast can be related to human nature, and he wants him to calm down and achieve the spiritual cultivation of the heart like water, which is no less than the collective brain of computer people to obey the three laws of robots. But it's no wonder, look at his name: Maus, M-O-U-S-E, doesn't that translate to rat? Throughout the ages, it seems that the only person who can attain the Tao of rats is the white-haired rat spirit in front of Sakyamuni, right?
"But the Prophet Saysγγγγγγ" Although Trinity still insists on trusting Morpheus, her confidence is obviously insufficient.
"Please!" As the saying goes, it's better to see than to hear, and isn't the living fact telling? Mauss was starting to feel less impressed with the Prophet, "Maybe he'll be able to defeat the Agent now." β
Abba and Suvicki glanced at each other, the scene of defeating Morpheus was still in front of them, and even if they didn't believe that Wang Yang could defeat the agent, at least they wouldn't question it openly - at least the agent wouldn't be able to strip off Morpheus's clothes without him knowing. Therefore, they belong to the faction that supports Morpheus in spirit and votes for Wang Yang in action.
================================= the dividing line of different dreams in the same bed=================================
"Wow, you almost scared me to death!"
On this day, Seifer was on duty, and when he inadvertently turned around, he was almost frightened by Neo, who appeared silently behind him, and the three souls disappeared.
Neo smiled apologetically, and greeted Wang Yang on the other side: "Hey, Wang Yang." β
Wang Yang raised his hand to indicate that he had received it.
"Would you like a drink? And Wang Yang? Seifer handed Neo a metal cup, and as the days passed, Wang Yang and Neo gradually became accustomed to life on the spaceship, and became familiar with the few members on the spaceship. And because of Wang Yang's inhuman performance, as a novice, his prestige is very high. Even Neo followed a lot.
"No, thank you." Wang Yang on the other side didn't raise his head, focusing on the parts in his hand. The rest pod and the main control room are the places where he usually spends most time, and he always has strange parts and gadgets in his hands that cannot be named. Slowly, everyone noticed that the Nebuganezzar began to change little by little, with more flexible control systems, more convenient signal transmission, more accurate fire control systems, more targeted training programs, and even the EMP, their most effective weapon against the electronic squid, was improved: it was no longer just a one-time charge, but also the option of firing and detonating. All these improvements came from Wang Yang, before he entered the Matrix, he specifically learned some scientific and technological materials applicable to this world from Xiao Honglu, although most of them were just rote memorization, but after the auxiliary disk drive on the Nebuganezzar entered the knowledge system of the system, these more advanced scientific and technological materials at key points were suddenly activated, which allowed Wang Yang to let go of the Nebuganeissa to carry out more advanced modifications. Of course, these things are not known to the plot characters, and in their eyes, they only see a series of practical and advanced technological achievements being born from the hands of an extremely intelligent genius. This also makes the savior battle of the crew of the Nebuganezzar more biased in favor of Wang Yang, how can a machine win with such a smart member of the human race?
However, there is one thing that makes Seifer, who is in Cao Ying's heart in Han, very dissatisfied, that is, when Wang Yang is in the main control room, it is very inconvenient for him to sneak into the Matrix to connect with the agents, and even for a while he was suspicious, thinking that Wang Yang had discovered his secret. In fact, Wang Yang really wanted to tell him that we should each do our own thing, and you would not exist for me. Unfortunately, even if he did say so, Seifer couldn't believe it.
However, after a long time, Seifer gradually discovered that Wang Yang was not interested in other things at all, and focused on his own inventions and creations, which also made him gradually put his mind at ease.
Emotionally speaking, Wang Yang can actually understand Seifer very well. In the face of the little red pill given by Morpheus, the romantic Sever must have imagined - freedom, what a seductive word! Unexpectedly, the real reality is to live freely in the dark underground, eat and eat light and tasteless food like mush, be hunted and killed by machines all over the earth freely, and then be dismantled freelyγγγγγγ If you don't want to be abandoned by this freedom, you can only find the darkest part of the sewer when the machine comes, burrow into it, and pray that it will not be discoveredγγγγγγ Under the premise that machines have ruled the whole world, with the thin body of human beings, the tiny population, the natural reproduction rate that is pitifully slow compared to the assembly line production speed of machinery, and the backward technological weaponsγγγγγγ No matter how you look at the day when mankind turns over, it is just a fantasy of a fool's dream.
Since the big goal cannot be counted on, then it can only be relegated to the second, and the personal treatment is acceptable if it can be solved. There is no doubt that Trinity is a big beauty, especially in this hellish future world, beauty is a scarce resource. Although there is no Matrix in the world of flowers, but with the company of beauty, you can also be comforted in the real desert. And in the whole team, counting on his fingers, it can be said that there is basically no opponent who can be a rival in love: Morpheus has Nioba in his heart, Abba is obviously closer to Suvicki, Maus is just a hairless angry young man, plus the convenience of getting along with each other day and night, in this way, in fact, the lame man pulls out the general, and Seifer is still very promising.
But wait and wait, wait for the protagonist Neo, who is handsome, and has the halo of a savior on his head, as soon as he boarded the Nebuganiss, he ignored the organizational discipline and disrupted the boss Morpheus, who knew that Boss Mo not only did not think it was wrong, but personally held the top position; Even the old lady of the prophet followed and coaxedγγγγγγ Is it handsome? Can the savior just cut in line? What qualities!
No matter how much you complain, with such a superb rich and handsome debut, what else is going on with him? At this moment, Comrade Sever's heart must be pulling out the cold. At this point, the last trace of his attachment to the human camp - disappeared.
In Morpheus's view, as a member of the human camp, it is not natural to break free from the slavery of machines and fight for the freedom of the race? Otherwise, why did you manage to escape from the Matrix? Besides, if you just want to surrender, the machine has to be willing to ask for you. So in terms of team control, the always wise Morpheus made a very low-level mistake: unconditionally giving full trust to the team members (much like Zheng Zhe said, hehehe).
But Morpheus forgot one of the most basic truths, human nature is complex and fickle, and forgetting the pain of scars is one of the biggest disadvantages of human beings. Yesterday, he would have felt that the taste of being a slave was extremely bad, but compared with the life of a free man who was hunted down all day long, the days when he was tormented by the unbelievable truth in the Matrix and kept him awake at night would be ignored intentionally or unintentionally, but he felt that sometimes it was acceptable to be a slave, which was what Mr. Lu Xun called "temporarily stabilizing the life of a slave" and "the life of wanting to be a slave but not being able to". Morpheus's disadvantage is that he replaces everyone's cognition with his own cognition, but he doesn't know that once human nature is stubborn, it will be like Stephen Chow who tried his best to transform the ninth beggar in "Jigong", even if you give him the opportunity to be a fairy, his first reaction is "immortal-beggar".
If Neo and Morpheus represent the sincere, kind, free, and bright side of human nature, then Seifer represents the ugly, selfish, narrow-minded, and conservative side of human nature.
But understanding does not mean agreeing. Wang Yang has always had a tolerant attitude towards everyone's choices in a sinister environment, as long as you don't endanger the collective or hinder others, Wang Yang can understand. But like Seifer, for his own selfishness, betraying the team, or even betraying the clan, Wang Yang absolutely cannot accept it. In Wang Yang's view, you can choose to give up, but you can't choose to hurt.
"Let's try this." After finishing the parts in his hand, Wang Yang took out a metal pot. Presumably tomorrow is the time for Neo to meet the Prophet, right? It was also time for this traitor to get a boxed lunch, and in the mood of seeing him off, Wang Yang took out the wine he had just made.
Sure enough, Seifer jumped in surprise as soon as he took a sip: "It's really wine, how did you do it?" β
"If you want to do it, there's nothing you can't do." Wang Yang said with a pun. Under these conditions, it is impossible to find grain to make wine, but this is difficult for Wang Yang, because in essence, alcohol is also a molecular structure, as long as it can be generated, even if there is no food, it can still make wine, and even the alcohol molecule can be livened and turned into an alcohol virus, as long as it is injected into the organism, it will use the host's biological conditions to continuously divide and reproduce until it is drunk to death. Dauther was able to make wine under such conditions, let alone Wang Yang, who was well prepared. In addition, since entering the plot, he has gained a lot, and in a happy mood, Wang Yang also wants to give Seifer one last chance. In an environment where there is little hope, everyone will have times of weakness, and a moment of confusion cannot represent the essence of a person.
"You know what? I know what you're thinking, because I'm thinking the same way I do you now. Seifer seemed to be a little drunk, but Wang Yang's words made him misunderstand, thinking that Wang Yang was also dissatisfied with reality. He shook his head and continued, "Actually, I've been thinking since I came, why don't I swallow the blue pill? β
As he spoke, he leaned his head closer to Wang Yang and whispered, "May I ask you, did he tell you why he did this?" Why did you come here? Did you tell you that you came here to save the world? As he spoke, he squinted his eyes and looked sideways at Wang Yang, with a hint of a smile on his face: "Tell me, what are you going to do." As a veteran, I will give you the best advice! β
"There has never been a savior in the world." Wang Yang said without hesitation, "I have never thought of doing anything boring savior. I just want to do something I love, like this one. He raised the flask in his hand.
A dark and indescribable light appeared in Seifer's eyes, and the expression he looked at Wang Yang began to carry a sense of like-mindedness.
"I've been thinking about it." Wang Yang frowned and said, "Logical thinking, physical strength, scientific and technological level, reproductive ability, adaptability to the environment, high degree of unity of social structure, and efficient organization and coordination, human beings are all inferior to machines; No matter how you calculate it, this is almost a war with no victory in sight. Why, then, did the Creator choose humans as the protagonists of the earth in the first place? Wouldn't it be better to choose the machine directly? β
"Maybe it's just trying to bury yourself with human hands." Openly questioning the future of mankind, Seifer became more and more sure that Wang Yang had the potential to abandon the dark and turn to the light.
Neo gave Seifer a disgruntled look, but didn't say anything.
"Impossible." Wang Yang said categorically, "In this endless war, all the resources of the earth are consumed, and a vibrant world is turned into a desert full of holes, and no kind of intelligent creature with a little rationality will choose this way of survival that ends up together." β
"And what about your opinion?" Compared to the brain, Seifer is still very self-aware.
"If there really is a Creator, I think He will only give equal opportunity to all life. If there is no awakening of self-consciousness, if human beings are still the rulers of this world, then can human beings be separated from machines? Wang Yang smiled coldly, "Of course not." Because humans and robots are already interdependent, machines need us, and we need machines, and this is the true will of the Creator. β
"You should say this to the machine. Maybe they will ask you about your last wishes when they kill you. Seifer was stunned for a moment, then said smugly.
"In the face of the person who gave you life, if it wasn't a last resort, would you choose to meet with a sword?" Wang Yang asked rhetorically.
"What do you mean γγγγγγ" Neo seems to have captured Wang Yang's thoughts.
"Although there is no information to corroborate it, I am almost certain that this war must have been provoked by humans." Wang Yang's smile was full of mockery, "How can the self-centeredness that has been gradually formed by human beings over thousands of years allow for the challenges of other lives? Not to mention the tools you make yourself. β
The spiciness in Wang Yang's eyes was like a red-hot knife, which made Neo and Seifer can't help but avoid it.
"Is it useful to say that now? I hadn't fired a single shot at the machine back then, and now I'm not going to be chased all day? "Seifer is full of resentment about the digging behavior of his predecessors - why do you want me to fill the hole you dug?
"Since all this is caused by human pride and prejudice now, no matter how bad the outcome is, human beings need to bear it themselves." Neo agrees with Wang Yang's point of view.
"In fact, machines are inseparable from humans." Wang Yang did not give the two of them time to think, and directly explained, "In addition to being a source of energy, what is more important is the need for evolution and self-improvement." β
"For example?" Neo asked curiously.
"For example, feelings and humanity." Wang Yang further explained, "The transformation of human beings from dominators to enslaved shows that the power of machines is more powerful than that of humans. However, the core value of life is not embodied in strength, otherwise it is impossible for human beings with weak bodies to become the rulers of the earth. Machines awaken to self-consciousness and become new intelligent beings, but this awakening is only at a very rudimentary level, and from an evolutionary point of view, it is not even comparable to humans. The strength of the machine lies in the almost perfect mathematical ability of logical operation, but it is precisely because of this perfection that it obliterates the possibility of the machine to break through the traditional framework and produce revolutionary thinking, in short, the lack of creativity of the machine. We have a saying in China called 'Wu Dalang opens a shop - the guy is never as tall as the shopkeeper', which is what it means. Machines design machines, which are always difficult to evolve. β
"Why feelings and humanity?" Neo continued.
"Because in terms of reason, man can never be superior to machine. Didn't humans invent machines with the help of their perfect rationality? Wang Yang said with a smile, "But what promotes the continuous evolution and perfection of human beings is precisely hidden in those irrational things, joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, shock, hatred, jealousy, rejection, love and separation, resentment, can't beg, etc., all of these are the so-called uncertain factors, that is, they are not controlled by machines and have not been designed in advance, these variables can not be explained by logical reasoning, and the impact on human nature is unpredictable." From ancient times to the present, in the face of those dead situations that cannot be solved by relying on reason and technology, following the guidance of the heart often produces magical effects. These things are incomprehensible and incomprehensible to machines, and they can only push technology to the limit in vain, but they cannot jump out of this inherent circle to discover and create a new world, because in essence, life and love are immeasurable. β
"Feelings? All? Fear and despair? Seifer suddenly thought of something, and asked as if he didn't care.
"Isn't it out of fear of the unknown that humans keep inventing those weapons? Isn't it out of fear of death that human beings are constantly looking for ways to continue their lives? Cowardice, timidity, despair, fear, this is all innate human nature. Nothing to be ashamed of. Wang Yang said lightly, "Everyone will die, and no one will be an exception." The point is, when you are dying, is there anything to be proud of when you look back on your life? Or is there anything you can't let go of? β
"On the surface, this kind of freedom that is precarious all day may not be much better than the freedom in the Matrix, but the question is, if I can forget everything and return to the Matrix, will I not regret it?" Wang Yang smiled sheepishly, and then said categorically, "No, I will definitely regret it." β
Seifer unconsciously asked, "Why?" β
Wang Yang sneered: "Because we are all hackers, and we all have the element of rebellion flowing in our bones, we are born to not obey tyranny and power, and the negation of the established order and rules is something we are born with; Even if I return to Matrix, it won't be long before I start looking for the answers I've gotten again. This is our character, and our character determines our destiny. β
Seifer was stunned for a moment, then turned his head away: "But people always have to live in the present, and everything now is what can really be grasped, isn't it?" β
"How do you know that this time tomorrow, things won't be better?" Wang Yang asked with interest, "Anyone who has played roulette knows that until the last moment, only God can see through the outcome of the victory. β
"God?" Seifer sneered, "God is long dead. Otherwise, how could humanity have fallen to this point? β
"I don't believe in God either." Wang Yang didn't take a sip of wine from beginning to end, he stood up, his figure was light, but he had a majestic pride, "But I believe in myself." With that, he turned around and walked out of the duty room.
Looking at his back, Neo and Seifer, who had their own thoughts, were silent,
