Chapter 205: Truth and Falsehood
Lin Hai was silent for a moment, his fingers twisted Ye Xuexin's slender fingers, as if he was playing with the small fingertips that couldn't be played enough, and after a while, Lin Hai looked up at the black cat:
"Lao Hei, are you interfering with the development of the original civilization?"
The black cat seemed to smile:
"It depends on which position we start from, from our point of view, this is not considered interference in the development of the original civilization, because all of this was made by you to me, and then I gave an answer within the scope of permission according to your request."
"Hehe... Old Black, what you say is shameless enough. ”
The black cat shook his head solemnly:
"No, from the position of the Star Alliance, it is appropriate and permissible for us to do this, and I can only stand in the position of the Star Alliance, right? Don't you Huaxia also have an old saying, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different! ”
Lin Hai pouted:
"Old black, are you telling me that you can't be trusted at all?"
The black cat actually nodded:
"Trust needs soil and enough time for it to grow, and our trust is based on the exchange of interests, Lin Hai, you and I are very clear about this."
Lin Hai was stunned, then grinned and nodded:
"That's true, but I'm sure that foundation will change."
The black cat glanced at Ye Xuexin, and sighed again in his heart, Lin Hai was right, once Ye Xuexin awakened, the status of the two would change, and the initiative would be transferred to the little couple without reservation, even if it was the official of the Star Alliance, they would immediately change their position and accept the earth as an important member of the Star Alliance.
"That's for later."
The black cat raised its paws, but it seemed to lack some confidence in its tone.
Lin Hai smiled and stopped continuing the topic, everyone already understood each other's thoughts, and that was enough.
The black cat did not want to draw a line with Lin Hai, on the contrary, the black cat's words were to prove that he was harmless to Lin Hai, Lin Hai could trust him, but his words could not be fully trusted, because there were some things that he did not want to say, but they had to be said, and he had to do so with the interests of the entire Star Alliance standing behind him.
"Lao Hei, can you tell me about your hometown, I'm really curious."
The black cat narrowed its eyes, grinned at the corners of its mouth, and seemed to smile lightly:
"My hometown... There is a sentence that is very appropriate. ”
"Oh? Which sentence? ”
"O sea, you are all water!"
"Poof! Ahem..."
Lin Hai was choked by this sudden cold joke, Ye Xuexin was stunned for a moment, and then put her head on Lin Hai's shoulder, shaking her shoulders and laughing.
The black cat looked at Lin Hai seriously, until Lin Hai took a breath, and then cleared his throat in embarrassment:
"Ahem, what, you still have some misunderstandings about our Chinese culture, that thing is not called poetry."
"Whatever it is, this sentence describes the scene of my hometown."
"Huh? Is your hometown a planet full of water? Are you aquatic creatures? Mermaid kind? ”
"No, we're terrestrial, it's just that we don't have a continent there, only a lot of islands, and the big ones are about the same as your province."
"That's very inconvenient!"
"There is nothing inconvenient, our civilization has mastered the spiritual network as a way of communication thousands of years ago."
"Wow! It's amazing! ”
Ye Xuexin, who had never spoken, suddenly spoke:
"Because of the gods?"
The black cat glanced at Ye Xuexin, nodded slightly, and then still looked at Lin Haidao:
"Our civilization is a complete religious civilization."
The black cat's expression and tone are very calm, but his heart is not calm at all, he has long known Ye Xuexin's smart black cat, but every time he personally experiences Ye Xuexin's keen insight ability, he will still be a little shocked, as well as envy and jealousy, is this the potential of the creator?
In fact, no one knows better than the black cat that the drastic changes in the relationship between the earth and the Star Alliance in the recent past have Ye Xuexin's shadow behind them, no, it can be said that they all rely on Ye Xuexin's promotion.
Of course, the role of the black cat in it cannot be erased, if it weren't for the black cat letting Lin Hai take Ye Xuexin to take a look at what was going on in the virtual copy world, I'm afraid all this would not have happened, but Ye Xuexin was able to understand the structure and principle of the virtual world just by virtue of one observation, and this ability was really enough to shock and look up.
The black cat is even a little weak when facing Ye Xuexin now, he is very worried that if he accidentally divulges some information, he will let Ye Xuexin grasp the secrets that the Star Alliance strictly guards, and Ye Xuexin's sentence just now is not a question sentence, but a declarative sentence, the black cat didn't even think about what he accidentally said, and let Ye Xuexin grasp the key point at once, and if he goes down, I am afraid that the core of the development of his planetary civilization will soon be dug out with the terrible creator behind his back.
The black cat hesitated, he hesitated in front of the fast-growing Ye Xuexin, he didn't understand why he was timid, didn't he always hope that Ye Xuexin would grow up as soon as possible, why did he hesitate now when he found that Ye Xuexin's growth speed was far beyond his imagination?
The thoughts in his heart turned around, but the black cat did not show it at all, his tone was as peaceful as ever, and his eyes were just as clear and stable.
"Are your gods powerful?"
Lin Hai's eyes looked at the black cat very seriously, the black cat's heart twitched, Lin Hai's question had pointed to the truth, the black cat's guess was immediately confirmed, sure enough, they were already so close to the truth, I really don't know how they analyzed this conclusion? Did the Institute for Cultural Strategy, which is close to them, come to this conclusion?
The black cat thought carefully for a while before replying:
"Our gods are not strong, but benevolent."
Lin Hai and Ye Xuexin glanced at each other, and a trace of excitement flashed in their eyes, but they quickly covered it up, and Lin Hai nodded lightly and said:
"Mercy, it is still merciful, and all the mighty gods must die! Right? ”
The black cat is noncommittal, Lin Hai's words show that they have really grasped the development of religious civilization, yes, the belief in religion is God, but God must not become the apex of religion, if the believers become the nourishment of the gods, then these nourishment will eventually destroy the gods who oppress them.
In the same way, God cannot be an omnipotent savior, in which case the believers will be lost, questioned, jealous and rebellious, and the end result will be that the God who is too strong to have no checks will die.
A healthy and correct religious system is only a religion system in which a believer becomes one with a believer, a god who is part of a symbiotic community of interests, and a religion in which believers and gods can grow and develop together.
This is also the original intention of the black cat when he said that they are a complete religious civilization at the beginning, and Ye Xuexin and Lin Hai have obviously understood the true meaning of the black cat's words.
Lin Hai looked at the silent black cat, pursed his lips, and held back a smile and said:
"What's the deal with that rune?"
"Runes? You mean I gave you the crest, right? That is a soul resonance array, this divine pattern can filter and stabilize the complex power of faith, playing a role in clarification and purification, of course, the divine pattern itself will absorb a part of the soul power as a price. ”
The black cat's answer did not hesitate, but Lin Hai didn't believe a word:
"Hehe, Lao Hei, is this divine pattern used by the gods of your hometown? Is the benefit of this crest a reward for the gods of your hometown? ”
Lao Hei nodded as a matter of course, and said serious nonsense:
"Of course, what else? The benefit is not for the gods of your world, is it? ”
Lin Hai smiled and didn't expose the black cat's lies, it is estimated that these words are required by the black cat to be said, so Lin Hai will not be more serious, as for how Lin Hai can see that this is a lie, it is actually very simple.
Since the black cat is here on behalf of the Star Alliance or some big forces, how can it be the turn of the gods of the black cat's hometown to benefit from this matter? No matter what, these forces can benefit, no matter how bad it is, it is also the benefit of the Star Alliance!
"Really?"
"Really!"
"That's... There wouldn't be any danger in this god pattern, right? Wouldn't we earthlings believe in it and become followers of the gods in your hometown? Hehe... If that's the case, it's fun! ”
The black cat tilted its head and looked at Lin Hai with disdain:
"How is this possible, saying this proves that you don't know anything about religion, let alone what the gods are."
Lin Hai didn't feel embarrassed, and directly smiled cheekily:
"Then tell me, why is my suspicion impossible?"
"It's very simple, the power of faith is never one-way, even if I move the god sacrifice statue from our hometown to the earth, so that you can worship and worship, in the end, it will only give birth to a god of your earth, do you think the power of faith can pass through the vast starry sky?"
"Can't you?"
The black cat casually glanced at Ye Xuexin:
"Well, the power of faith is limited by region because it works in both directions, and although the distance in the real world is not so important to the soul, it does have an impact, and if this distance is large enough to a certain extent, then the impact becomes huge."
"Oh? How big is this area? ”
The black cat hesitated for a moment and said:
"This is very complicated, it is related to the intensity level of the civilization domain block, and it is also related to the density of the surrounding matter, if you take the star field around your earth as an example, it is probably no more than a thousand light-years away."
Lin Hai stammered, squinting as if he was wondering what a thousand light years was, but his meagre knowledge of astronomy could not answer similar questions.
At this time, Ye Xuexin said with a smile:
"The distance from our Earth to the center of the Milky Way is about 26,000 light-years, and the diameter of the Milky Way is about 160,000 light-years."
"Huh!? So... Small? ”
Lin Hai said small, referring to the power of faith and the distance between the gods, of course, a thousand light years is actually very large, within a thousand light years around the earth, there are actually many star systems, if the earth can immigrate in the future, the god system can still be...
Ahem, this brain hole was too big and I accidentally fell into it.
We don't play with the religious civilization system, no matter what the scope of action of the power of his faith is, we have to care, and we also care about the coverage distance of the future communication network, as long as it is in this communication network, you can strengthen your soul through the gods of the virtual world, etc., there seems to be a problem here!
Is everything the black cat said true?
What if, the god that the black cat said is in a high-dimensional world? If the black cats can come to Earth, can't their gods?
Lin Hai squinted his eyes at the black cat, is this thing fooling himself?
