Chapter 308: Return to the Illusion
What is "thinking"?
To paraphrase an explanation taken from the Internet:
Thinking is the process of generalizing and directly or indirectly reacting to objective things.
Kindness...... Yes, it's official, so few people can understand it.
So translating it into the language of the pauper is: you know what you're doing.
Isn't it a lot easier and clearer all of a sudden?
But even if you understand what it means, it's still a difficult question to answer, because the definition of the word is given by humans, and now we have to revisit it, which is like using dialectics to explain dialectics, and we can't get an answer.
So, let's ask the question in a different way.
What do you think...... Is our understanding of "thinking" correct?
Does Thinking Need a Carrier? Need to distinguish individual differences? Is there a need for a route of transmission?
Are these too hard?
That's a batch for another. For example, do cats have thoughts? You say yes, because it should know what it's doing. Well, what about caterpillars? Does it know what it's doing? Maybe the two factions of the theory of thinking and the theory of instinct are going to quarrel, but what about the wood next? In the next ...... What about stones? What about the dirt?
......
You see, we have a lot of room to discuss, right, but in order to save some unnecessary saliva, I'll just give you the answer......
That is: no answers!
Yes, no matter how many people are discussed, how intense, how well the arguments are, in the end it can only be that people with the same ideas gather in a heap, and they are all over the place, full of heresies, and dregs, and in the end they keep talking to themselves, and nothing will come of it.
It's like the "collective consciousness" that I'm going to explain next.
While some people would have said that he understood what that meant, he could never really understand it.
Because he couldn't even comprehend the pain of his neighbor's little toe.
No one can really understand the thinking of another individual......
Oh, by the way, I'm saying this to lead to the next sentence...... That is, creatures with "groupthink" can!
Isn't it amazing.
There is no clear distinction between species with this way of thinking, such as bees, although you see them one by one, some collecting honey, some building nests, but they do not know that they exist, but share one or more thoughts and ideas, as if the sphincter of your anus has cut off the last bit of excrement and your hand has picked up a piece of paper to wipe your butt at the same time. They all act for the sake of a common mind, and there is no such thing as a hand suddenly being upset and poking the butt hard.
So, what about the implementation in the bee colony...... If you beat a bee, the whole colony of bees will scream, "! Who hit me? "Then a swarm of people came out to find you.
In this collective, the consciousness of each individual is in a hive, and they will be connected to each other, and if two consciousnesses trigger each other, then you can communicate with the other consciousness, that is, you can become another person, a real person, live his life, have his thoughts, and the other person is the same, live your life, have your thoughts, but you are still independent people, you are still you, he is still him.
Then magnify this number dozens or hundreds of times, and it becomes a so-called "collective consciousness".
Well, it's a little hard to understand, but that's pretty much what it means.
In this way, it is obvious that at this moment, Bai Xiong, Song Xuan and Chen Xiao are under the control of this collective consciousness.
It's the so-called "ants" that haven't been seen until now. They drive the human mind to work by removing itself from itself and placing it in a common world of thought, and the ability to take possession of his body with another set of minds.
It's like using your own hands and ass.
......
......
Almost!
Let's go back to this moment again.
After listening to Chen Xiao's words, Bai Xiong listened.
"A bad premonition? What is it? He asked, in a suppressed voice.
Chen Xiao brushed his thoughts: "In your notes and mine, you and I both emphasized not to attack the ants...... Well, let's be honest. When I see the scar on your head, I have a bad feeling. As he spoke, he pointed to the other party's arm: "Look, your ion shield is still there!" ”
Bai Xiong froze for a moment, he immediately thought of something, quickly clenched his fist, and the ion shield on his arm popped out with a "bang......
However, the shield that was originally glowing with blue light had dimmed, and moreover, it was pierced by a huge gap!
"That's right!" Chen Xiao nodded and said, "When I saw such a wide tunnel, I thought, if the ants are so big, then ...... How much power do they have to have......"
The white bear looked at the strongest shield in this C-class area...... I didn't know what to do for a while.
Everyone knows how amazing the strength of an ant is when converted into proportions, but for thousands of years, humans still habitually compare ants to weak.
Because people know that ants are always that big.
No one knows what an ant would look like if it were actually scaled up to the size of a human.
But it seems...... The white bear already knew, and the ion shield and the scar on his head clearly told him what he had done with the ants and what the consequences were.
The white bear exhaled deeply and calmed himself: "Go on, what do you think about the food during this time......"
"Oh, you said food." Chen Xiao shrugged: "Although I don't care, you definitely won't want to listen to it." ”
The white bear frowned, and his forehead ...... His expression meant that he had thought of a terrible answer.
"You mean ....."
"Yes, the protein residue in the digestive tract of the average insect is very abundant, and the fat is almost perfectly retained...... That is to say......"
"That's it!" The white bear immediately stopped the other party: "I understand! ”
"In fact, they are highly nutritious, like the droppings of flies......"
"Tell me how you want to get out of here!" Bai Xiong interrupted Chen Xiao's words again.
Chen Xiao spread his hands stupidly: "Okay, speaking of escaping...... After collecting this information, I think it's best to rescue Song Xuan first. ”
"How can I save it?" Bai Xiong asked very simply, at this time, he would listen to Chen Xiao's thoughts very carefully and calculate their possibilities.
"It's very simple, it's just that we're shouting now, summoning those big ants, just because I want to see it, and then they find out that we two have woken up, and they will definitely use some way to control us again,"
"But then you and I will both redistribute memories."
Chen Xiao nodded: "Yes, I guess I've tried this kind of behavior several times, so I'm going to try a new method this time...... I'll go in myself! ”
