After school, Chen An did not miss the appointment, but hooked up with Liu Fei and Liao Chen and went straight to the Internet café outside the school.

Of course, this is not because it is important to play, in fact, if it weren't for the consciousness of the ancient beast, he might have monitored here, he didn't have the need to play it at all, so naturally he didn't have to play it so seriously.

In fact, he was just curious about some things in Yuan Xiaoxin's memory.

Following Liu Fei, the three of them skillfully opened three seats, one dollar an hour, and the three of them added up to a total of nine yuan, and paid a deposit of fifteen yuan in advance.

In this era, Yuan Xiaoxin's parents' monthly salary is only five or six hundred, and the combined income of a family is more than a thousand, fifteen yuan is not a small expense, and Liu Fei's family is quite wealthy, and from time to time invite a few brothers to have a good time.

Quickly got on the machine, Liu Fei and Liao Chen directly entered the game, but Chen An followed his memory and began to surf the Internet, while familiarizing himself with this magical collection of information, and at the same time understanding the world by browsing some information on the Internet.

Chen An's housekeeping skills are not the use of poison, nor martial arts, but intelligence analysis, although he has not been in charge of this for some years, it is impossible to be unfamiliar with things that he has been familiar with since he was a child.

And the Internet is a collection of all kinds of information, where Chen An is like a fish in water.

Ordinary people seem to be just a simple information thing, but when they come to him, they can see a lot of different things, so it is only a short time, and the general outline of the whole world appears in his mind.

"Xiaoxin, what are you doing, don't enter the game yet?"

"You guys play first, I'll look up information on the Internet, and then take me next." ”

"It's boring, okay, okay, hurry up. ”

After a short episode, Chen An continued to browse the web quickly, building some remote knowledge points into the corners of the worldview in his mind, making it more comprehensive and vivid.

His movements were extremely fast, almost to the point of ten lines at a glance, and if it weren't for the need to distinguish and tidy, he would not be much worse than the machine in front of him.

"Hey, Xiaoxin, are you okay, this is the fourth. ”

"Alright, alright, here we come. ”

Chen An hurriedly used the mechanical memory method to rub the constructed world model in the depths of his mind, and before he had time to check it, he entered the game and connected with Liu Fei. If you make an appointment to play the game, it's really a little unkind if you don't play.

Moreover, in Chen An's view, the game in front of him also has a lot to explore, and it largely reflects some of the thinking orientation of people in this era of this world.

Feeling the familiar freshness of the game screen, Chen Anxin gradually immersed himself.

Once the game starts, time flies, and three hours are over in a flash.

The three of them are also restrained, knowing that although tomorrow is the weekend, they still have to make up classes, so they didn't renew the fee, and after the game is over, they will go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers.

It was already more than nine o'clock in the evening when Chen An returned to Yuan Xiaoxin's house, but Yuan Hui and Zhang Ping had not come back yet, and he happened to be happy.

After hurriedly heating up some food, Chen An locked himself in the bedroom and began to sort out what he had just gained.

His mind was immersed in the map that had just been compiled in his mind, and the whole world was unfolding before his eyes.

One continent, five provinces, thirty or forty million people, that's all, as for the rest of the territory is an endless ocean. It can be said that it is a very small world.

In addition, in terms of chronological history, it is only 1,600 years, and the primitive society, the division of slave owners and slaves, feudal feudal monarchs and constitutional monarchy, all compressed in this short period of 1,600 years, the process is not unpleasant.

After going through all these things in his mind, Chen An gave a summary that this world is incomplete.

Indeed, it doesn't look like a complete world at all, but rather like a fragment or rubbing copy from some real world.

There can be all kinds of evidence to prove this, take the game just now.

The lord system, building bases, developing troops, conquering foreign regions, and occasionally mixed with the materials of knights and magicians, these things are very novel to Chen An, so he still remembers them vividly, but if you compare them carefully, you will find that there has never been such content in this world.

There is not even a root of derivation, and where did all this come from?

In addition, the world should not be moving so fast, and it seems that several key points have been skipped.

All this combined with Chen An's previous vision of this world in the dark space, coupled with the cultivation of the Phaseless Xuantong during this time, Chen An faintly had some understanding.

This world should be fictional, of course, it cannot be said to be completely fictional, but it should be a reality that comes out of fiction.

Taking rubbing as an example, the picture scroll is virtual on the template, and the rubbing becomes a complete picture scroll on the paper, which can be appreciated by people, but it is real. The world is a picture scroll that will be rubbed on a template.

But in the end, it is just a picture scroll, and many of the contact logic is not perfect, which makes people like Chen An at the level can see through its essence at a glance.

In addition, combined with the people floating in the dark space one by one, Chen An also began to have a terrifying guess about the existence and origin of this world.

Perhaps this ancient beast preyed on so many people, floating in that dark space, just using their worldview and letting them help them create the world.

Yes, to create the world.

A person's perception of the world is his worldview, and the worldview formed by countless individuals' cognition of the world constitutes this world that we can see and touch.

For example, trees, the first people planted this rhizome in the ground, and the branches and leaves grew to welcome the sunlight as a living organism named a tree, and later people accepted this name and reached a consensus for it, so trees became a part of the natural world, a part of people's worldview.

The concept of a tree exists.

Of course, the existence of this concept does not begin with people naming it, but from the fact that it is seen and understood.

This world is also like this, when the consciousness recognizes the existence of this world, it has a concept formed. And what has no concept is considered to be non-existent.

Therefore, a long time ago, the ink palace raised such a speculative question: whether there were people first, or the world first.

At first, Chen An thought that this question was very boring, but when he really came into contact with Wuxiang Xuantong, he didn't think so anymore, and now he has met a guy who can use people's thinking and cognition to create the world.

That dark space may just be a nutrient tank, and people's bodies are kept in it to supply energy that can keep them alive, after all, only by living can we have thoughts, and only with thinking can we have world cognition.

And the skeleton of the whole world is likely to be the world concept of the ancient beast that carries the world, which is based on this, absorbing the world concept of the people who have been swallowed into the dark space, and together forming the world where Chen An or Yuan Xiaoxin grew up.

Here, everything is real to all people.

As for why it was such an era, maybe it was because the worldview of the ancient beasts was like this, or maybe it was because most of the people who fell into it were like this.

Thinking of this, and then thinking of those people floating unconsciously in the dark space, Chen Anxin was a little panicked, but he still tried hard to recall, and found a lot of things from it that could corroborate his judgment.

For example, in the dark space, the three souls are extracted, and the human soul of the Lord's self-knowledge is used as a rope that ties the connection between the ontology and the soul body with the two souls of heaven and earth as the main body.

The two souls of heaven and earth, which can comprehensively construct the worldview, are put into the container as the cornerstone of building the world.

Thinking like this, Chen An's mind sank into his body again, and he began to carefully observe what was happening in his body.

First of all, Yuan Xiaoxin's body, the container is just a container, and there is nothing else.

Then there is the primordial spirit, as the saying goes, the soul.

Human beings have three souls and seven spirits, namely, the three souls of fetal light, refreshing spirit, ghost spirit, and the seven souls of corpse dogs, Fu Ya, Sparrow Yin, Swallowing Thief, Non-poisonous, Removing Filth, and Stinky Lungs.

The so-called fetal light is the human soul, the Lord's self-knowledge, that is, the existence of the "self". To lose it, that is, to lose the concept of "me", it is possible to judge that the person is dead.

And the cool spirit is the soul of the heavens, the main world cognition, if it is lost or it has a problem, people will become idiots, or unconscious, thinking ability, cognitive ability has a big problem.

The third soul is called the ghost, that is, the earth soul, which is the main root cognition, the main control of desires and emotions, etc., and even it is the dividing line between human nature and animal nature.

Together, the three souls form a complete body of consciousness, which is then perfected by the seven spirits.

Now Chen An is judging Yuan Xiaoxin's state at this time by checking the integrity of the three souls and seven spirits.

Under his observation, Yuan Xiaoxin, or another him, the Seven Spirits were completely attached to the earth soul and formed the main body that dominated his behavior consciousness. And the heavenly soul exists independently outside the appearance, constantly interacting with all kinds of things in the outside world. The human soul turns into a thread that is bound to the ontology, which can not only ensure the inherent characteristics, but also draw nourishment from the ontology, so that it will not need the support of the current world and become a burden to this world.

In other words, the people here are only two and a half souls supporting their existence.

Sure enough, when his mind returned to the present, Chen An could basically determine that the foundation of the existence of this world was those people who were floating and sinking in the dark space, and if the souls of those people were broken together, this world might be destroyed immediately.

In this way, the level of the ancient beast may not be very high, but the means are a little weirder.

"Click. ”

Just as I was thinking of this, suddenly there was a sound of the door opening behind me.

"Xiaoxin, we're back. ”

Chen An secretly sighed for trouble, but as a child's character, he still had to turn around and shout with a smile: "Dad, Mom." ”

When he turned around, because of his previous thoughts, he subconsciously looked at the top of the heads of the men and women in front of him, where it was empty, and there was no human soul line at all.

Chen An's smile was pretended, but his face instantly stiffened.
