Observe the Tao and break the cocoon

Date: February 2253 Location: Crested Feather Star Recorded by: Fog Cause

Ji Ke is two years old this year.

I've checked her brain, probably because she inherited her mother Tia's mental power, Ji Ke's brain has grown very quickly, and it has reached the level of a teenager, and it is estimated that in another year, she will be able to think like an adult.

However, on the other hand, the development rate of other body tissues is relatively normal, and now it can only be called father, mother, uncle, and brother.

1. Discussion

I had a discussion with Arashimu.

If you can read the minds of others, isn't this ability invincible? Looking at the thoughts of a few people, you can know the direction of things, which is equivalent to opening a plug-in, which seems to be cool, but in fact there is no fun of challenge.

Lan Meng said that it is not so exaggerated, first of all, there is a limitation of language, the thoughts in the human brain exist in the form of sound, if the other party's language is not understood, it is still in vain.

Secondly, there are ideological limitations, if you really want to know the direction of the overall situation, it is not enough to look at a few people, at least, you must look at the thoughts of more than ten key people, and the lack of any one will affect the key trend. So, if you want to know where the big picture is going, it's useless to spend a little more time. Even if there is enough time, it is useless to lack key ideas. This ability is used to make the world, so there is no limit to time and thought, but it is useless to use it for short-distance interstellar travel, and when the direction is determined, the matter is almost over. However, it is not a problem to read one's thoughts, and it is not even difficult to determine the direction in the short term. However, as I said, this ability is equal to hanging, so it will be used at critical moments.

Then we discussed the matter of Yashin.

Lan Meng didn't say his opinion, but asked me what I thought.

I pondered for a moment and said, "Yashin's problem is that he is not himself, and everything he has belongs to someone else, so although he didn't say it, I know that he actually wanted to replace my whole body, so as to completely cut off contact with my past self.

Lan Meng nodded.

"But I'm not going to do that. In this way, I escaped the problem, changed my body, changed my brain, and it seemed that there was no problem. But is this really the problem? Isn't this an escape from the problem? If you encounter a similar problem again, what should you do, or do you want to run away from it?

Moreover, and more importantly, to do so is to deny one's past self and abandon oneself. A person who has abandoned himself is really healthy physically and mentally? Even if he changes his body, will he still want to change it? If you are not satisfied with your body, will you be dissatisfied with everything else?

"Therefore, I will never grant such a request. Then, there is only one way left, to face the problem head-on. How to face the problem head-on? Since I want to be completely different from my past self, then I can only develop habits, preferences, and experiences that I did not have in my original self, so that I am a new self and a rebirth from the cocoon. ”

"Good. So, you want to ask me for help, I'm here to find the right story on the planet, and you take Mr. Yashin with you to watch the Tao as a bystander. ”

"Exactly."

"This is an important matter, and I need Ms. Tia to come with me."

"Remember to keep it a secret."

During this time, we changed planets, and the language on them was untranslatable. In the galaxy, there are many races, although Tia records the rules of language, which are relatively broadly applicable. But the galaxy, understandably, really appears in the same language as the earth, that's strange.

Two

The spaceship lands.

"Tia, Lanmeng, you go outside and have a look, and if the language can be translated, let me know."

The two left the ship.

After a while, news came that the language could be translated.

"Ari stays and looks after the ship, Yashin, let's go." I hugged Ji Ke and walked out of the spaceship with Yashin.

Out of the spaceship, Ji Ke looked very happy, and his little hands kept waving.

However, she can't use her mental power yet, otherwise she would know what she thinks.

Since it takes time to find a story, we need to live first, and the first problem is money.

Of course, this is easy to solve, on a planet, there is always a place like a pawnshop to exchange goods for money. In Molo Star (Part 5), the king gave us a lot of jewels, which I heard were worth a lot of money, but I have never paid much attention to this kind of external object, and it is best to exchange it for money.

However, I still picked a few good-looking ones and made up my mind not to use them for anything else. I don't care about jewelry, but what about Tia? What about Ji Ke? Many times, your own indifference cannot be used as an excuse to snub others, even if others don't want it, it is always heartwarming.

Walking into the city, we entered the pawnshop.

When the pawnshop guy saw our jewelry, his eyes lit up and he hurried to the backyard to call the boss.

The boss walked out with a smile on his face, "Honored guests, please." ”

We walked into the room, and I got straight to the point and said, "Boss, we're in a hurry, you just say it, how much money to charge." ”

The boss smiled and held out 5 fingers.

"500 gold coins? The price is a little lower. ”

The boss shook his head, still 5 fingers.

"500 Amethyst? I can't. ”

The boss still shook his head, still 5 fingers.

"You mean, 500 diamond coins? This ...... "I was dumbfounded, this is too exaggerated, Tia told me before, the currency here is composed of platinum coins, gold coins, amethyst coins, diamond coins, obsidian coins, 1 obsidian coins = 1000 diamond coins = 1 million amethyst coins = 1 billion gold coins = 1 trillion platinum coins, a person here only earns 20,000 platinum coins a month, 500 diamond coins, I calculate, the calculation is not good, it seems to be, 500 billion platinum coins.

Seeing that I was silent, the boss thought that I was not satisfied, and said, "The guest officer is not satisfied? The 700 Diamond Coins didn't hurt. ”

This time, I regret taking out the jewelry, 700 billion platinum coins, I can't spend it even if I stay here for the rest of my life, and it's not good to be too indifferent to money.

Tia saw my concerns and said, "We're not going to stay here for long. ”

The boss smiled, "No problem, the guest officer is a person from outside, don't worry, we can also exchange coins for equivalent minerals, coins may not be circulated outside, minerals must be."

"Okay, then let's get 10 diamond coins first, and exchange the rest for minerals."

"The guest officer walks slowly."
