Chapter 251: The Secret of Resurrection

Previous Chapter

Hou Dalin and the others had too much work to do after they took over the Shenlong. Not only did you have to change back what Lily had modified before, but you also had to do a comprehensive check of the entire ship's systems and hardware.

Of course, the first step they had to do before doing this was to disconnect the Immortal Hall system from the spaceship.

When their physical connection was closed, Hou Dalin let Tang Jianping access the Eternal Life Hall system and began to formally contact the resurrected inside.

In order to distinguish them from other spirits, Hou Dalin still gave them a new name.

When Tang Jianping appeared in the Hall of Eternal Life, the three of them here were still a little uncomfortable for a while. Because in the years they have experienced, the only outsider they have seen may be Lily.

"Have you just woken up? Oh, my surname is Luo." The first thing Tang Jianping saw was Luo Lao, and this old man was now the most active among these people. Here, he is free from the shackles of his old body and can do whatever he likes.

It made him feel like he had a second life.

On the contrary are Ren Xiaoyu and Xiao Kai. Neither of them is very old, and since they learned how to change their image from Lily, they have now become handsome men and beautiful women, and they are entangled in love all day long.

Tang Jianping looked at the old man in front of him, and he immediately realized that this was a resurrected person.

"Hello, my name is Tang Jianping, and I am an astronaut." Saying that, Tang Jianping even gave the other party a military salute.

"Oh, hello, hello. Heck, I've been living here for years, and I've finally met the real outsiders. By the way, I haven't seen Lily in a few days, how is she now?" Luo Lao was not only happy, but also asked about Lily's situation.

"Oh? Seeing that Luo Lao cares about Lily very much, your relationship is good?" Tang Jianping came in to check the situation, and of course, the impact on Lily here was also the focus of his check.

"We're okay with each other. However, this Lily has a dual personality in her body, and sometimes she is not easy to communicate with, very extreme. But a lot of times, when Lily is in control of herself, we communicate very well." What Luo Lao said is very pertinent, which is consistent with the situation that Tang Jianping has mastered.

"Lily and I were both astronauts on previous missions, but she got a little out of control. Now that we're in control, you don't have to worry too much about that." Tang Jianping roughly talked about the current situation, of course, he didn't say in detail about what happened to Lily.

"Oh, that's good, that's good."

Tang Jianping found that this Luo Lao was actually still a little nervous, especially after he heard that Lily was controlled, the whole person became even more nervous.

"Luo Lao, you don't have to be nervous, let's go sit over there for a while, let's have a good chat." In order to relieve his nervousness, Tang Jianping pointed to a coffee shop in front of him and said.

When the two of them sat down, a girl suddenly came out of the coffee shop, smiled and asked them what they were drinking.

This made Luo Lao stand up in shock. You see, since he was resurrected here, he hadn't seen anyone other than the three of them. And he has been to this coffee shop countless times, and every time he comes, he takes coffee from the coffee machine on the counter and drinks it himself.

And with the arrival of Tang Jianping, there was a waiter here. It's a strange thing.

"What's your name?" Why haven't I seen you before?" Luo Lao asked at the waiter.

"Hello, my name is Xia Xue, I am a waiter here, I have been working here, maybe you didn't pay attention to me before." The waiter's words were very smooth, and even made Luo Lao feel a kind of stylized and perfunctory.

"Old Luo, you don't have to worry about her for now, I'll explain everything here to you in a while." Tang Jianping interrupted Luo Lao's questioning, but pulled him to sit down.

"Did Lily tell you about your real situation?"

"I've said a few, but maybe it's not quite comprehensive. We think we might be brains in a jar,

Everything now may be just an electronic signal. It's like this cup of coffee, I can see it, I can touch it, I can drink it in my mouth, I can feel it."

As he spoke, Luo Lao took a sip of the cup before continuing, "But I know that all this is fake, these are just a kind of data, a kind of data that can be transmitted to my brain. This data may be a biological signal, and it perfectly simulates our sensory nerve signals and makes our brains feel as if they were real."

After saying this, Luo Lao looked at Tang Jianping. His eyes didn't blink, which made him look deep and terrifying. After watching it for about ten seconds, Luo Lao asked, "Is what I said true?"

Tang Jianping nodded and acquiesced to all this he said.

"Hehehe, it seems that my guess is really correct. It's just that what I don't understand is, why do I exist?"

"Old Luo, in fact, we are more concerned about this issue. As a matter of principle, you shouldn't exist. As we have said before, consciousness cannot exist apart from matter. This is a very fundamental philosophical question. And before you appeared, there was no dispute about that."

Luo Lao smiled when he heard this, and then said, "I want to hear your next but."

"Hehe, but your existence breaks this philosophical proposition. Originally, when we used your brain again, it was only for our scientific research. At that time, the brain was the brain, and although its basic functions were still there, your consciousness had died."

"Wait, Don......"

"Oh, you can call me Tang Jianping, or call me Captain Tang." Tang Jianping said his identity, and then waited for Luo Lao's question.

"Then I'll call you Captain Tang, Captain Tang, how do you prove that our consciousness has died out at that time? It's not that our consciousness was just asleep and not really dying out."

After Tang Jianping listened, he still shook his head, and he didn't know how to explain this question. This kind of question can only be said by Hou Dalin.

"I'm sorry, Luo Lao, I can't answer this question. This is not my area of expertise. Of course, the person in charge of this project is currently on this ship, and you can ask him this question later."

"What? The person in charge of this project is also there? Is he the chief scientist of this project?" Luo Lao was really surprised at this moment, you know, the person who can achieve this project to this level must be the world's top scientists. At least in the classification of human life, he believed that no one could beat him.

Although he has been "dead" for several years, science is not something that can be achieved overnight, and in the public information, no one in the world can achieve this level at present.

"Of course, his name is Hou Dalin, you may have heard of him."

"Of course, I've heard that the CT machine and other medical devices he invented have benefited many people. How? Is he the chief scientist of this project?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Haha, it's great to be able to meet him, it's great." Luo Lao almost jumped up with excitement, he admired Hou Dalin very much, although he was much older than Hou Dalin. But in the world of scientific research, age has never been an obligatory obstacle.

"Old Luo, don't get too excited, my question hasn't been asked yet, and he can't come here until my work is over. So, the faster we can finish, the faster you'll be able to meet him."

"Okay, Captain Tang, you can ask quickly, I will definitely cooperate." Luo Lao suppressed his excitement for a moment, and then continued to sit down.

"Luo Lao, we want to know, what changes Lily has made here, you know, this is very important, I want you to tell as much as you can about what you know." Tang Jianping began to ask about the important links.

"I know a little bit about this, and I've made detailed notes." As he spoke, Luo Lao took out a laptop from his bag, operated on it, and then handed it to Tang Jianping.

Tang Jianping didn't pick it up

A notebook, but said something with headphones, and then asked other questions again.

This kind of inspection work has been done for many days, and in the past few days, Hou Dalin and Ma Tian have been almost sleepless, conducting meticulous inspections of the Changshen Temple system from the inside out.

After they had dealt with all the problems they could find, Hou Dalin began to connect with the Hall of Eternal Life system.

It's just that they don't have the necessary equipment here to allow his consciousness to enter the interior of the Hall of Eternal Life. All they had to do was to use video conferencing to begin communicating with the three resurrected inside.

"Professor Luo, can you describe in detail the scene when you were resurrected? For example, what do you hear? Or what you see, what you feel."

"Professor Hou, I don't like your statement, we are not dead, why do you use the word resurrection? I don't feel comfortable listening to it." Before Luo Lao could speak, Ren Xiaoyu on the side spoke.

"Okay, I'm sorry, I'll ask you a different question." Hou Dalin's attitude was very good, and he didn't mean to be angry at all. He continued, "Then let's wake up, Professor Luo, can you describe to me what it was like when you woke up?"

"Okay, in my memory, I felt a burning sensation first, and then I saw a blue light. It feels very strange, it's blue in front of it, but it's not the kind of blue it looks like. It's a wonderful feeling, like a dream, yes, like a dream."

"Me too, but I didn't feel the heat, I felt the cold, very cold, like floating up at the bottom of the sea. But I've seen that kind of blue, and it's like a dream, I feel like I'm all blue, and then the whole person floats up, and the more I go up, the brighter that blue becomes.

When I saw that I was about to float to the water, I woke up all of a sudden, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the scene." Ren Xiaoyu listened to Professor Luo's description and hurriedly said his feelings.

Looking at this extremely enchanting Ren Xiaoyu, Hou Dalin thought to himself how sullen this woman used to be.

He has seen this image of Ren Xiaoyu before his death, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is serious and stereotyped.

But that's not what he needs to focus on, people, who hasn't had two sides anymore? This is understandable.

"Xiao Kai, what about you? How did you feel?" Hou Dalin saw that this person didn't speak, so he took the initiative to ask.

"Me? I can't tell, because I feel like I'm on a mission and all of a sudden I'm here."

"Huh? Don't you see blue or something?" Hou Dalin is interested, why don't you say you see blue, why didn't he have it?

"No, right? I don't remember exactly, but it was weird, how can I say it? It's as if I inadvertently stepped on the air, and then when I was nervous, I suddenly realized that it was just a dream." Xiao Kai recalled this, but when he said this, he added as if he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I remembered, before I woke up, I saw a butterfly, a butterfly with blue wings. It's just that I don't remember if I saw it before or later."

"Oh, I see." Hou Dalin nodded and made a note in his notebook.

In the following time, Hou Dalin asked a lot of questions, and the three of them were relatively cooperative, and they all talked about some of their feelings and cognitions.

At the end, Professor Luo asked Hou Dalin, "Professor Hou, I have a question that I haven't figured out, and I want you to help me answer it."

"Okay, you say." Hou Dalin raised his head, looked at the big screen and said.

"Professor Hou, I know we're participating in a trial. This test is special in that it uses the human brain as the test subject. But what I want to ask is, how did you prove that our brains were dead? If you can't prove it, why do you take our brains and do such an experiment?"

Professor Luo's question was very direct, and it was also the biggest question in the minds of the other two people. Someone casually took out the brain

Come on, put it in a glass jar, it's not comfortable for anyone.

Hou Dalin thought for a while, and then said, "Frankly, Professor Luo, Teacher Ren, and Xiao Kai. At that time, we only checked your brain wave signals and found that you were already in a state of brain death, and then we decided to remove your brains.

Of course, you may not be convinced, saying that your inspection equipment must be accurate? What if you make a mistake? Isn't that tantamount to murder?

Frankly, we can't really guarantee that. But according to the circumstances, this was the only thing that could be done.

For example, Professor Luo, you should remember what your previous physical state was, right? If we don't do this, we would believe that your brain must have been corrupted along with your body by now.

Of course, you might say that death is also your right. I have no objection to this, and I respect your right to do so. So if you feel that what we are doing is a desecration against you, we will immediately stop this experiment, and then return your brain to your children and perform the necessary burial ceremony for you.

You have a choice, and trust me, I respect your right very much."

After saying this, Professor Luo was silent. This right is given to him, but how to choose this kind of thing, does he really have a choice?

"Professor Hou, are we going to be trapped here for the rest of our lives? Can we ever return to human society?"
