What is the form of existence of the soul, what is its principle, and what does it have to do with matter? Can it stand alone?

These are all questions that Li Rui raised when he was studying the soul. It's a pity that even Hexi can't help him at this point, and the only one in this known universe who can give him an answer is Karl, the god of death.

With the help of Ge Xiaolun, the contractor, the equipment that Li Rui spent two months building was finally completed.

The device in front of us is located on the moon base, covering an area of more than 7,000 square meters. Of course, this refers to its main part, which can be installed in one room with its operating terminal.

The main body of the equipment was built by Ge Xiaolun, and it took a week of effort, but the runes were made by Li Rui single-handedly, and it took nearly two months.

Hexi looked at the equipment in front of him curiously: "This is the instrument you said can operate on souls?" ”

To be honest, she couldn't read it.

Ninety-five percent of the equipment in front of her was made up of rune creations, and the rest were just some simple mechanical structures, which was not difficult for her, but the rune creations made her clawless.

To Hexi's surprise, the device in front of her seemed to have some kind of information shielding ability, and her eye of insight could not read valid information at all.

"This is, a strange form of energy, which seems to have some kind of commonality with the soul, no wonder it can operate on the soul." Hexi couldn't see it, but Qi Lin's eyes, which were also based on rune technology, saw some doorways in them.

Li Rui nodded: "The existence of the soul is a special energy body, and the device in front of me is to use an astronomical rune sequence to simulate the existence of the soul, so as to operate the soul." ”

As he spoke, Li Rui threw a cage containing a guinea pig onto the experimental table.

Immediately, Li Rui communicated with Nuwa to start the equipment.

A golden dome emerges from the void, enclosing the entire workbench. Then, a golden glow scanned the entire workbench from foot to head.

"Through a lot of research in the early stage, I found that the complexity of the soul is positively correlated with the level of wisdom, and the higher the wisdom, the more complex the soul.

For example, the soul of paramecium is at least a hundred times different from that of a guinea pig, and the gap between its soul and that of a human will be even greater. ”

As he spoke, the mouse lying on the experimental table suddenly fell silent, and a hazy shadow emerged from it, levitating in the air.

"Huh?" A sound of surprise came out of Hexi's mouth, and under the eye of insight, this time the shadow in front of him had a data response.

By analysis, it seems that this is the result of a reaction between phosphorus and some kind of special energy.

Li Rui took the initiative to explain: "Normally, we can't directly observe the soul. With the help of this device, we use a complex sequence of runes to mark the soul with the element phosphorus, so that the soul can be observed with the naked eye. ”

Qi Lin asked thoughtfully, "Then does this have anything to do with the ghost fire in our folklore?" ”

Legend has it that the so-called ghost fire is actually phosphorus fire. It is a phenomenon of spontaneous combustion of phosphorus produced after the decay of the corpse when exposed to air.

Because phosphorus has a very low ignition point, it is easy to spontaneously combust.

Li Rui was slightly stunned and replied: "Theoretically, it is impossible to hit ghosts. After all, we need such a huge amount of equipment to be able to observe souls.

Of course, reality is much more complex than theory. Especially in the face of the soul, a special being that transcends the material plane, our inferences based on matter are likely to fail. ”

"We angels know this very well." Hexi said with a solemn face.

Carl is such a being, his form of existence is no longer dependent on matter, so it is impossible to predict his future through calculations.

Hexi then asked, "But I'm a little curious, is the so-called soul really not related to matter?" ”

Li Rui hesitated for a moment before replying, "No." ”

"Oh?" Hexi immediately became interested, and his eyes lit up.

Obviously, a certain Pippi Xi disliked the live broadcast and participated in it himself.

"The soul is based on matter, but it is beyond matter. Scientists on Earth have long proven that the weight of the body changes slightly at the moment of the passing of human life. It is inferred that this is a reaction caused by the death of the soul.

Of course, this is based on the level of science and technology of pre-nuclear civilizations. In front of this device, we take a deeper look at the relationship between the soul and matter. ”

Hexi's face was full of interest: "Listen to me." ”

"The study found that the essence of the soul is actually a special kind of energy, which we tentatively call soul power. While the living body is alive, the interaction between the soul power and the matter that makes up the living body takes the form of wisdom.

For example, the soul is more like a fuel that powers the human machine. ”

"Fuel?" Hexi frowned: "But if it's fuel, it will run out one day." How do you explain such an eternal being as God? ”

Li Rui glanced at her: "How do you know that God must be eternal?" ”

Hexi subconsciously wanted to refute, but she was suddenly stunned. Looking back at the history of the known universe since its inception, there has never been an eternal God.

"God's eternity is only the result of our deduction based on the conservation of matter. But what about being out of the material? Li Rui asked.

A trace of bitterness appeared on Hexi's face: "In other words, God is not eternal? ”

"That's not right."

"Huh?"

Li Rui shook his head and explained, "I haven't analyzed the specific principle yet. However, according to the analysis of the available data, when the divine body is transformed, there is a special connection between our body and soul, so that the stock of the soul fuel is artificially increased.

But this does not mean that we have really attained eternal life, but that this period has been extended to a future that cannot be observed with current technology.

So, it's okay to say it's eternal, but it's not rigorous. ”

In fact, Li Rui is also very helpless, he has studied for so long and found that things like the soul are difficult to explain with science. Perhaps, the end of science is really theology.

As he spoke, Li Rui had already operated the equipment in front of him, projecting a dazzling golden light and bombarding the soul body of the mouse. The shadow immediately shattered into countless star spots, and then forcibly coalesced to form a sphere the size of a soybean.

"What are you doing here?" Hexi had an uncomfortable expression on his face.

Angels seek justice and do not like to kill.

Li Rui replied, "This is extracting pure soul power. I wanted to try it and see if I could work a miracle. ”

"Did you know that in the righteous order, life is not a material thing that can be traded?" Hexi asked solemnly.

Li Rui showed a helpless expression: "In other words, before this, I still have to convince you through a debate?" ”

Hexi frowned and thought for a while before giving her decision: "Forget it, Kaisha won't agree to me doing this." She always thinks that you are special, and I only hope that you will not forget your original intention, and do not become so indifferent as Carl that you lose your reverence for life. ”

"Of course."

Li Rui nodded and continued to operate, and soon hundreds of mice appeared on the experimental table.

A trace of unbearability flashed in Hexi's eyes, and finally he sighed and didn't say anything.

More and more guinea pigs were extracted by Li Rui to this device, and finally fused into one, turning into a fist-sized fusion.

Immediately after, Li Rui clasped his hands together, and with his movements, the soul manipulator projected a sphere completely composed of runes, sealing the soul.

"What the hell are you going to experiment?" Hexi asked with a frown.

Li Rui opened a space door and replied, "A miracle." ”

With that, he walked inside.

Qi Lin had full trust in Li Rui, and she didn't hesitate and walked in directly.

"Are you sure you don't want to stop him?" Hexi stayed where he was, as if he was talking to someone.

"Don't you already know that he is the future? Since you have chosen him, believe in him. ”

Sure enough, at this time, the only person Hexi could consult was Divine Kaisha.

Hexi sighed helplessly: "I really hope I don't have to play off." ”

With that, she also stepped into the space door.

In the empty laboratory, the space door flickered twice and disappeared completely......

There are countless scholar templates for me to see the supergod.8.2... m。 ：
