Chapter 36 Driving Instruction for Old Drivers (Part II)

Xiao Sao looked at Yan Qingcheng with an expression of contempt, obviously very confident in his choice.

Yan Qingcheng felt that his three views were falling apart, he didn't expect Xiao Sao to say such shameless words with confidence.

What one-two-three-four-two-two-three-four? You just want to eat and wipe clean and don't admit it!

"But you ......"

"But I didn't say I could choose more, right?" Xiao Sao seemed to know what Yan Qingcheng was going to say, so he asked first.

Yan Qingcheng nodded.

"I didn't say you can't choose more, young man, don't be so rigid, you have to know how to be flexible." Xiao put on an attitude of elders educating juniors, speaking of age, he was originally a clear elder, but his usual words and deeds are too casual, so people can't feel it.

Yan Qingcheng frowned, he didn't want to play with words at such a time, and besides, it didn't seem to have any necessary connection with the problems that arose now.

"Think about it," said Xiao Zheng, "I just gave four options, and you subconsciously thought that it was a multiple-choice question, what made you make this judgment?" ”

Yan Qingcheng was silent for a long time, and found the answer, "Habit." ”

"Yes, it's habit that makes you make this judgment, but can everything in the world be judged by habit?"

Yan Qingcheng seemed to have grasped something, but he never cleared his mind.

"This is the common weakness of children cultivated under a standard education like yours, Uncle heard that when you were studying at the National Academy of Sciences, you were an elite member, you had excellent grades, and you won a scholarship every year; Uncle also believes that you are quick-witted, knowledgeable, and able to draw inferences easily; But all your strengths are confined to an artificially set framework, and you are only doing well in the constraints of this framework," said Xiao casually, "Uncle only gave the option, and said nothing else, but you have already set the preconditions for it in your mind one step ahead, so we will come to very different conclusions; Now applying this line of thinking to these three examples of spacecraft runaways, if you think about it, what I told you is that the basic piloting style of a ground vehicle and a starship is similar, but what is the difference between them? ”

"Gravity!" Yan Qingcheng blurted out.

"Well said! It's gravity. Xiao Shao applauded lightly, revealing a teachable look, "When you fly a vehicle on the ground, there will definitely be gravity to restrain you, you are used to it, just like you are used to every multiple-choice question by default when encountering a multiple-choice question." Starship is different, it travels in space and is equipped with a gravity engine, which can change the direction of gravity on the body or even completely erase its influence; So when you're piloting a spaceship in space, you lose the guidance of natural gravity and you don't realize it, and your vision and sense of direction are misaligned. ”

He paused, then continued, "You have a little action of pulling up the joystick when you accelerate, this is because you are used to flying vehicles on the ground, and your subconscious mind is helping you fight the effects of gravity; However, Uncle had already turned on the gravity engine, and the direction of gravity in the Dawn was adjusted to the vertical floor downward, and you changed the direction of the spaceship, but it did not change the relative direction of gravity between you and the ship; So your subconscious mind is constantly helping you adjust, and this sense of dislocation has not been eliminated, and the ship can only spin in your hands. ”

Yan Qingcheng closed his eyes and pondered the chic words carefully.

"It's not just the piloting of a starship, it's the same in life," Xiao said in a low and gentle tone, completely devoid of the usual frivolity, "If you have been in the framework set for you by others, and your thinking is invisibly bound, then all your words and deeds will have traces; For ordinary humans, this may not have much impact, after all, they are in the position of the dominated, and there are traces to follow, which is conducive to management; It is very different for us Winged Clan, we live on opposite sides of the world, our enemies are incomparably powerful, cruel and cunning, they have hunted us for years and can easily discern any breath; If we can't make an unexpected move, then we are likely to be touched by the vine, which is a mortal threat. ”

Yan Qingcheng nodded, what Xiao Shi wanted to tell him was to jump out of the framework of common sense and learn to get rid of the shackles of habit, he completely understood.

He stood up from the passenger seat and bowed deeply towards Chi.

"I've been taught, I'm very sorry for my rude attitude towards you before, and I hope you can ignore your past suspicions, Mentor Xiao."

For him, the name of the guru can only be given to people with the utmost respect, and the scarcity in front of him is recognized by him; This man usually disguises himself with frivolous words, hates to follow the rules, and always likes to cause trouble; But at the critical moment, you can see the situation clearly and point out the source of the problem; This is a very profound realm, Yan Qingcheng admires this kind of person very much, he thinks that men should be like this, usually light and informal, hiding all the hardships and hard work in the bottom of their hearts, but at the moment of crisis, they can shoulder the heavy responsibility and turn the tide.

Seeing Yan Qingcheng put on this attitude, Xiao Xiao was a little embarrassed, but after all, he was a person who had seen strong winds and waves, and he was very thick-skinned, so he calmly accepted Yan Qingcheng's salute.

"Don't call Uncle Tutor, it's not used to sounding, the original name is pretty good," Xiao Wan returned to his old attitude, he sat in the driver's seat and crossed Erlang's legs, shaking the empty wine bottle in his hand, "But since you want to apologize, then pay Uncle a bottle of bar, this is a national cellar, with a history of hundreds of years, and the market price per liter is five million; You spilled the last half bottle of wine in your uncle's bottle, and your uncle gave you a discount, just count it as 300,000. ”

Yan Qingcheng was speechless, when he was in the National Academy of Sciences, the annual scholarship standard was 100,000, which was enough for his annual expenses, and 300,000 yuan could buy a second-hand standard civilian starship, "But I have no money, and the organization has never paid a salary."

"Uncle knows that you are poor and white, and your wallet is cleaner than your face, so he allows you to pay on credit," Xiao waved his hand, showing great generosity, "As for money, our branch is not a company, where will we pay you a salary?" After a few days, when you pass the coming-of-age ceremony, my uncle will take you to take over the 'private work', and the money will come very quickly. ”

"What is private work?" Yan Qingcheng asked curiously.

"Didn't Elder Song tell you about the 'faith' mission?"

Yan Qingcheng shook his head.

"That uncle is not good at talking, I will take you there after you understand, you won't be in debt anyway." Xiao said indifferently.

"Okay, I'm going to practice flying the ship?" Yan Qingcheng asked.

"Well, remember, be intentional about your habits and don't let them cloud your judgment."

"Got it!"
