Looking at the people who were a little puzzled, Zhang Yuan recalled the feeling at that time, and said: "If you don't experience it yourself, it's really difficult to describe ^"

"To use a specific analogy, everyone has two eyes and has normal vision. So, what about the blind? Some people may think that there is no way for a blind person to see the world, so what they see may be black, which is the feeling we feel when we close our eyes, but it is not...... That black color is nothing more than the color produced when the light is blocked by the eyelids. ”

"What does it really feel to be blind?"

Zhang Yuan blinked his eyes and explained, "Everyone open their left eye and close their right eye. What the closed eye feels is the feeling of a blind man, and it is not black, but a state of nothingness. ”

Yes, nothingness.

With such an explanation, almost everyone understands.

"Nothingness" is a very abstract concept, but it does exist. Nothing, as if this closed eye was directly missing from the brain.

There are also people who are trying with their eyes open and closed, and this feeling of complete loss of perception is actually experienced, which simply startles some people who don't know why.

It's really hard to describe in words if you haven't experienced it yourself.

In the same way, Zhang Yuan is currently in the process of several sensory losses, and because there is more than one sensory loss, he will be uncomfortable for so long, and he will be paralyzed for a while.

So, how important is perception?

It is intellectually related and can completely affect the way a person thinks!

Is there a picture in the "eyes" of congenitally blind human beings? The answer is yes, but this picture is still fundamentally different from the picture that normal people get through vision.

For normal people, closing their eyes and touching an apple is probably a relatively round thing, with a small pit, and there may be a small tail, after the initial outline is formed, a picture will be formed in the mind, and it will automatically make up its eyes.

"This ability to form images in the mind is the influence of vision, and it is also a kind of primary cognition of things."

"But when a congenitally blind human touches an apple, it may form a memory in his mind that is not a picture, and it is still limited to the sense of touch."

"That's perception, the effect on thinking."

Then, in the same way, all normal human beings, compared with high-level civilizations, are equivalent to "blind people".

The perception of high-level civilizations is more developed, and the way of cognition of things is completely different.

In the interstellar trading market, there are special disciplines in this area, such as "spiritual hierarchy", "racial value judgment", etc., which judge the wisdom potential of indigenous civilizations.

Perception is an important part of judging potential, and if a species has super perception, it can sell many, many amoeba points in the interstellar market! Of course, this kind of species is also rare in the universe.

And Zhang Yuan is the only person who is different among human beings, although he is also "blind" now, but that memory is still there.

"Mr. Zhang Yuan, is your way of understanding the world very different from that of normal people?" A neuroscientist suddenly raised his hand and asked, "Can you remember that feeling?" Won't forget? ”

Zhang Yuan spread his hands: "I don't know how to describe it for the time being...... Of course, forgetting will not forget, just like a person who is blind after tomorrow, he will always remember that period of light and all kinds of colors. He still knows what Kunlun Mountain looks like and what the Bright Galaxy looks like. ”

The specialist nodded and sat down.

Zhang Yuan continued: "Albert Einstein, the greatest scientist of the 20th century, single-handedly discovered the relativistic benefit by his amazing inspiration, the existence of mass leads to the distortion of space, and the distortion of space produces gravity. ”

"This phenomenon of space distortion is mysterious and unpredictable to us humans, and even Newton believed that gravity is a phenomenon of transcendence. Ordinary people are even less likely to feel the distortion of space. ”

"But what if I could directly perceive the distortion of space?"

"Yes, at that time, I really felt the distortion of space and the gravitational phenomenon that comes with the distortion, and these feelings blended together perfectly in my brain! You can imagine how much progress it would be for scientists if human scientists could perceive the nature of the universe more correctly! ”

What is the most important thing in science?

Inspiration!

Hard work determines the lower limit, but inspiration determines the upper limit!

Now it's good that Einstein's greatest inspiration in his life, a three-year-old child of a certain civilization, can directly perceive it through his own brain. If a certain civilization can naturally see the curvature caused by mass in space, how much of a qualitative change is this?! They will think that the great discoveries of human civilization are just some pediatrics.

All of you here are smart people, and you know deeply what Zhang Yuan said means.

Among the civilizations of the universe, there must be such a civilization that is inherently superior. They are the darlings of evolution, and each evolution goes in the right direction, and they don't have to think hard about the nature of the universe like other civilizations. The universe in their perception is itself close to the essence.

Humans, or more civilizations, are like blind fish in a cave compared to these inherently superior civilizations.

Zhang Yuan looked at the silent thinking group and said, "After explaining so much, I hope to join the Unreal Lab and study this aspect." It is also hoped that the government will allocate some resources to set up a special laboratory. In particular, I think it's a good choice to use the life in the virtual world to study these things. ”

After all, it's really hard to describe this feeling in a few words. Only by personally handling the horse can we make more contributions to the entire civilization. ”

"Oh, by the way, and some related scientists are needed."

This matter was quickly approved, and a special laboratory was set up, the "Extradimensional Perception Laboratory", because it was necessary to use virtual world technology, which belonged to a department under the Unreal Laboratory.

If you don't use this kind of talent, it's a fool's behavior.

Of course, this job may be protracted and difficult, and there is no specific theory, and it will definitely not produce too good results in a short period of time, which everyone knows.

The new human civilization has enough patience to wait for Zhang Yuan's slow research.

Next, a number of scientists were temporarily transferred. These scientists encompass all aspects of the brain and the intellectual field, and they are very valuable existences, and as a result, the relevant leaders are not very reluctant. What if these scientists are mobilized to assist in the renewal of the brain? Zhang Yuan's work is important, isn't other work important?

In the end, the original "Institute of Human Magnetic Field Perception" could only be merged on a voluntary basis, with a total of 30 people. After all, human beings are still in a state of ignorance about this course. 30 people, first figure out the magnetic field perception, and slowly open up the wasteland.

After discussing this, it is finally a big deal.

After a minute of silence in the conference room, a young professor from the Ministry of Information Security spoke: "Mr. Zhang, what is the purpose of that cube you brought back?" We interpreted the data and found no security issues. ”

"Oh? Have you confirmed Ann? Captain Ke couldn't help but ask.

Security is always the most important thing.

The professor nodded, "Yes, according to our interpretation, it seems to be a large-scale function that can calculate an infinite non-cyclic decimal ...... It's just that we don't find anything unusual about this infinite non-cyclic decimal. ”

After the young professor said this, he looked at Zhang Yuan with great curiosity.

Zhang Yuan smiled and replied, "Yes, it is indeed a unique function. However, it represents the cosmology of the Gaia faction. ”

"To put it simply, the Gaia faction believes that the entire universe is a series of complex functions, of course, it should not be the one that is given to us now."

In fact, he didn't know what Abel Ring gave him in the end, anyway, he just said "a little surprise".

"If we want to understand it thoroughly, we have to use a supercomputer with high computing power to calculate it. I hope you all ...... Be able to prepare yourself. ”

Everyone in the venue was in a commotion, waiting for a "little surprise" from a higher civilization.

The captain consulted with several computing experts, consulted with relevant professors from the Ministry of Information Security, and agreed to the request.

Zhang Yuan instructed the staff to "place a particle in the three-dimensional coordinate system (0,0,0), and then follow the motion calculated by the function." Isn't it an infinite non-cyclic decimal where the specific rules of motion are ......"

The particles began to move slowly on the screen according to the rules, one point after another, one after another.

But no one could see what it was.

Zhang Yuan said: "Please speed up the appearance of the dot by 100 million times!" ”

"The refresh resolution of our screen is not enough. How can there be a screen resolution of 100 million frames per second? One scientist smiled wryly.

The calculation speed can be improved, but the screen refresh speed cannot be increased so much.

"It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with the screen resolution, as long as the dots can be visually persistent."

When the human eye is observing a scene, it takes a short period of time for light signals to reach the nerves of the brain. After the action of light ends, the visual image does not disappear immediately, and this residual vision is called "afterimage", and this phenomenon of vision is called "visual persistence".

As the calculations accelerated, an abstract image was quickly sketched on the screen. But no one can see what this thing is.

"Another 100 million times faster!"

The speed of the movement of the particles increased dramatically, and the image began to become slowly and delicately, faintly visible, some human images, but as if they were fixed, motionless.

"Speed up 10,000 times more!" This time it was the captain who spoke directly.

"Your Excellency, if you speed up the calculation, the computing power of our supercomputer is not enough."

"Then mobilize other supercomputers, you should be able to complete this mission, right?"

"No problem."

After about a quarter of an hour, the program was set.

Everyone held their breath, even Zhang Yuan, whose heart was beating faster and faster...... I had a premonition that something great was about to happen!

This single particle jumps rapidly in the three-dimensional coordinate system, outlining a complex image.

As time passed, the sketched images became more and more concrete and concrete......

Really dynamic images are out!

This time, the image seemed to jump a little too fast, like a fast-forward movie, only 0.1 seconds passed, and then it became a large number of snowflakes in the back, and people had no idea what was playing in between.

A slightly impatient voice rang out in the conference room.

The crew had to readjust the speed of the picture.

It took another two minutes, and it was set.

Everyone glued to the screen, holding their breath again.

The picture appeared.

A robot, pushing a semi-paralyzed guy in a wheelchair, enters the conference room......

Zhang Yuan's complexion changed immediately, how could this paralyzed guy look exactly like him?

The picture continued, and all the participants entered the venue in turn, about 100 people. Seeing everyone coming, and seeing "Zhang Yuan" who was half-paralyzed in a wheelchair, the middle person led by him smiled and said something.

Judging from the shape of the mouth, it seems to be-

Ladies and gentlemen, it has been three months since we came to the trading market of Huantai Civilization. In these three months, quite good progress has been made. First of all, our diplomats will share what has been achieved during this period......

A guy who looked like Zhao Qingfeng stood up and introduced the relevant situation, and everyone on the screen listened drowsily.

After this was done, people began to communicate with the semi-paralyzed guy again, and his shocked expression was vivid.

It's wordless silence.

There was no sound.

It's just a black-and-white picture outlined by a fast-moving particle.

Except for the "thump" heartbeat, there was no sound in the conference room.

It's terrifying.

Zhang Yuan's pupils dilated slightly, and he suddenly came back to his senses, isn't this ...... Did it just happen?!

Even saying the exact same thing?

The humans in the picture have also set up an "extradimensional perception laboratory", and then quarrel over the transfer of manpower. After the controversy ended, the "little gift" of the Hicks civilization began to be discussed.

It's just creepy!

Truly creepy!

The cold air was overflowing, and all the councilors in the entire conference room seemed to have fallen into an ice hole, and Mr. Captain couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and he even wondered if he was watching the surveillance video.

However, this is definitely not a surveillance video! Rather, it is a picture simulated by the high-speed movement of a particle!

Whether humans like it or not, the image continues, repeating almost exactly what happened in the meeting......

It wasn't until humans were about to run a function in cube memory that the screen suddenly jumped to a line of text......

"Hello human civilization, this is a small gift for you, and I hope you can be happy about it."

"If you reach the level of a sixth-level civilization, you are welcome to study the mathematics of prediction together."

"Hicks Civilization, Abel-Ring."
