Chapter 8: Bewitchment

K sent the next message: [Eternal life cannot be described concretely, it is a state, and to understand this state, there is a prerequisite, that is, to become a qualified person. 】

I can understand this sentence a little: [It's like trying to describe the taste of honey to someone who has never had a sweet tooth? Indeed, that's almost impossible to do. 】

[Of all the people I have spoken to, your comprehension ability is at the top of the list - then, talk about your understanding of life. 】

Despite the internet, I could still feel the joy of the other person - I had put a new label on the guy who called himself K: emotionally impulsive.

[Life is a very idealistic concept, we don't have any real reliable way to test the characteristics of life, almost all our understanding of life comes from our thinking about our own existence, which contains a lot of philosophical speculation, or in other words, we can change the annotation of "life", called "all the ways of existence similar to human beings". Also, I don't think that the death of the body necessarily represents the end of life, just as the origin of life is another unsolved mystery. 】

[Yes, the conservative theory of life has too many blind spots that cannot be explained, but life in a broad sense is simply like a philosophical proposition. From K's tone, I could tell that he was extremely satisfied with my answer.

The modern interpretation of life refers to a class of phenomena that naturally appear in the process of the development of the universe, such as a certain number of possibilities for self-growth, reproduction, feeling, consciousness, will, evolution, and interaction.

This is flawed.

For example, you can truly feel and describe the existence of "self-awareness" to other humans except for humans (and in fact, only each person), and you will never know if your chimpanzee, which is also a primate, is self-aware, or whether your pet dog has emotions or not.

For example, if AI robots have a certain amount of free will and can maintain self-replication without human control, then are these cold machines considered life? If it is life, then we will have to admit that all our conjectures about the origin of life are actually nonsense!

In addition, is there any life in the universe that is always active, and is the earth we live on life? Like the countless microorganisms that live in our guts, do the earth and all the creatures that live on it have such a symbiotic relationship? And we can't communicate with the earth, and we can't understand how it behaves, just like the microbes that live in our guts, they may also think that the sky is round and the stars are moving, just like ancient humans—that their huge, friendless hosts can't move.

[The consciousness of the qualified person is eternal and immortal - if the physical body is necessary to carry the existence of consciousness, then the physical body will also be immortal, and so on...... The universe in which the qualified one exists will also be immortal. 】

Just as I was thinking about it, K suddenly sent another message that seemed completely clueless.

I immediately wanted to ask him, what does this mean? But just as my fingers touched the keyboard, I suddenly stopped, and for a moment, I was shocked to think of a question - those who committed suicide were deceived by K's theory and tested themselves by suicide to see if they were the so-called "qualified people"?!

The ...... of Eternal Life Eligibility.

Unbelievable madness!

A fierce anger welled up in my heart - this K is completely the face of a cult propagandist!

Instigating and inducing others to harm themselves or even kill themselves with evil and distorted theories! And he may just be a despicable and cowardly madman who only dares to hide behind the online world and secretly laugh! If he really believes in his theory, then he should be the first guy to die, where is the time to lure others into the wrong path from which they will never recover?!

It was at this moment that I swore I would catch this bastard! Not purely out of a sense of justice, but also for his heinous disregard for the lives of others.

Perhaps, he also came to me to trick me into "understanding his theory", and then he was proud that he had succeeded in fooling me.

At this time, my expression must have been ugly, because even the three elm pimples on one side, including Li Yi, saw that I was abnormal, and threw inquiring and concerned glances at me, and I shook my head to calm them down.

I was furious, but my hands were off the top of the keyboard.

I need to stay calm, and it's stupid to be angry and startled at the moment of anger - I can't help but be glad that the conversation we only have is taking place online, and he can only analyze the text messages I send, but not my real thoughts through my real expressions, behaviors, etc.

I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths, stabilizing my emotions and sending out a message: "I don't quite understand. 】

Until the moment of true experience, all people's concept of eternal life will be extremely poor and superficial. My last message is already the biggest tip for you, and if you understand the meaning correctly, then I will give you some reward - help you close the case in your hands. If you think of something, just leave me a message. 】

After receiving this message, the person's profile picture turns gray, which means that he is offline.

I wasn't in the mood to do any more "roll call", so I copied 25 names from the information Shen Tangzhi gave me, handed them to Li Yi, and brought him a thousand yuan by the way, telling him that I wouldn't go to participate in the Waiting for the Rabbit action tonight, and let him help me invite my brothers to supper.

After sending Li Yi and the three of them away, I immediately called Shen Tangzhi.

After telling Shen Tang about K, Shen Tangzhi, like me, was extremely disgusted with this guy who claimed to be a theoretical master.

She told me to get the information together and see you in an hour.

City Star, the name of a Western restaurant, is located in the most prosperous place in the center of Jinguan City, and it is also the highest place in the whole city - the 128th floor of the Bojing Times Building.

"Wow, City Star, that super luxurious and invincible revolving western restaurant with a night view of the city? No, Section Chief Shen, although I advanced you 20,000 yuan, you can't knock me like this, right? This time, I have to drink the northwest wind again, not to mention it, the key is that you say we can afford to be so extravagant and wasteful? "I tried to convince people.

"Shut up, I'm in for a treat—but not for you, you're in passing. Also, dress a little more formally. ”

After Shen Tangzhi finished speaking, he didn't wait for my reaction and hung up the phone directly.
