Chapter 70: Outside the Rules
Shereya took a step into the house, trying to get closer to Xiao Yi.
But his movements were quickly stopped by Dick.
"Don't move! If I move again, I'll shoot! Teak Ice Day! Aim your gun at Sherea! ”
Teak Bing was speechless for a moment, damn the pistol is here with me, what are you calling arrogantly?
But Teak Bing Tian could only helplessly turn the muzzle of the gun to Sherea.
But at this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly stood up and walked towards Sherea.
Dick was startled and hurriedly shouted, "What do you want to do!?" Don't move! Teak Ice Day! ”
"......" Teak Bing reluctantly aimed the muzzle at Xiao Yi again.
Xiao also turned a blind eye to this, and only extended his hand to Serea.
"Sherea, the rules are on you, right? Show it to me. ”
"Huh? This ......" Sherrea glanced at Dick, a little hesitant.
Sure enough, Dick threatened again: "Beware that I really shoot!" ”
"I don't have time to waste with you right now, Dick." Xiao Yi also looked at Dick and said, "If you really doubt me, you won't waste your time here, but you will say it at the feast ceremony." ”
"What......!" Dick was shocked, he actually saw through it, was he just bluffing?
At this time, Dick also met Xiao Yi's gaze.
He immediately realized that Xiao in front of him was also a little unfamiliar.
In the past, when Dick looked at Xiao Yi, he would feel transparent and pure. And now, Dick could only feel fear.
That fear that comes from the depths of the soul, evoked by human instincts!
It was as if he suddenly realized that he was not standing, but was suspended in mid-air by an iron hook, his torso, limbs, and organs had all disappeared, and when he looked down, he could only see a withered white spine swinging weakly!
“…… Teak Ice Day, put down the gun. Dick said suddenly.
“…… Huh? But? ”
"Put down the gun!"
“…… I know. ”
Teak Bing Tian frowned and put down the gun, thinking: Damn, what is it called if you want me to raise my gun and suddenly ask me to put it down?
Seeing this, Shereya dared to hand over the rule document to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi took the rule paperwork, glanced up and down for a moment, and nodded thoughtfully.
"Hmm...... This rule is quite mysterious. ”
"Mysterious? What do you mean? Sherea was puzzled.
Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that one thing suddenly came to mind, we can't understand the text of the rule document, right?" It can only be understood by the translation mechanism. So, is it possible for the translation mechanism to deliberately tamper with the content and then translate it to us? ”
"This ......" Serrea was stunned, this possibility cannot be denied.
Xiao also continued: "This may be the origin of the so-called false rules. Language can help us understand the world, but language itself has limits, and those limits can become our constraints. That's why we need to learn better languages to understand the world, such as mathematics. So, in order to understand the strange talk of the rules, it is also necessary to learn the language in the rules document, right? ”
"Ah...... Well. Shereya nodded stunned.
Xiao also has a point, but ...... Why say it to yourself?
In fact, Xiao Yi was not just telling Serea, he knew that there were many people watching them on the Blue Star.
Among them, some people immediately took action after hearing Xiao Yi's words, such as Xu Yingguang.
In the past, because that kind of text analysis was too difficult, and because of the translation mechanism, they didn't care much about the text on the rule documents, but now Xu Yingguang immediately dispatched people to parse that kind of text!
Returning to Xiao Yi's side, he immediately said, "Then let's start the next topic." ”
"Next, what's next?" Sherrea's eyes widened, and he felt like he hadn't been able to keep up with the conversation.
"Sherea, have you ever played chess? Dragon's. Xiao Yi asked suddenly.
Shereya couldn't keep up with Xiao Yi's train of thought at all, so he decided not to think about it too much, and answer whatever he had first.
"Played, what's wrong?"
Xiao also said: "The horse walks the sun, like the field, is the rule on the chessboard." However, the meaning of this rule cannot be understood by the chess pieces that follow the rules, and can only be understood by the chess players who are fiddling with the chess pieces. ”
“…… What do you mean? Sherrea was already confused.
"The meaning of the world is outside the world." Xiao also explained: "The meaning of the rules is also outside the rules, and if we are just a pawn that follows the rules, we will never be able to understand the meaning outside the rules." Fortunately, we are human beings and can think, just like the frog at the bottom of the well does not know the size of the world, but also knows the blue of the sky, we can still glimpse the true meaning beyond the rules from the rules. ”
"What does it mean outside the rules?"
"Well, that is, the existence of these rules, why these rules? And, why such a rule? ”
“…… Don't just follow the rules, but think about what it means to go beyond the rules? ”
Shereya couldn't help but think about what it meant to be outside the rules.
"Why give wolves and people the right to choose whether to kill or not? And there are only five days to make the rule, and after five days the wolf will die, that is to say, one of the two sides will die, and in fact there is no choice at all? And, why is there such a rule that wolves can kill during the day? ”
It is true that there are some strange things in the rules, but before they were just following the rules without thinking about the meaning.
Xiao Yi smiled with relief, and then said: "Not only this copy, but also the whole rule of strange talk. So, let's move on to the next topic. ”
"Wait a minute!" At this time, Dick suddenly interrupted Xiao Yi and asked, "The meaning of the world lies outside the world, is this Wittgenstein's words?" Why is this sentence suddenly mentioned? ”
Xiao also replied: "Because this sentence is very handsome, who doesn't want to say it when there is a chance?" ”
“……”
Dick felt scared of Xiao Yi in his heart, but he wouldn't admit it, so he forced himself to say:
"Hehe, I thought I was going to say a lot of things all of a sudden, but I was just pretending. Moreover, aren't you Dragon Kingdom people particularly confident in the wisdom of your own country? Why quote other people? Shouldn't you quote the words of the sages of your own country? For example, the great wisdom of "Zi Fei Fish" is hard to raise the bar! ”
Hearing these words, the people of the Dragon Kingdom, who were originally looking at Xiao Yi's performance, couldn't help but feel angry!
This Dick doesn't understand at all!
But the people of the Dragon Kingdom themselves don't understand it and don't know how to refute it, so they can only hope that Xiao Yi, who is a little strange for some reason, and hopes that Xiao Yi can educate Dick.
However, Xiao Yi actually nodded, "Isn't Zifei a fish?" It's just right. Indeed, you're right, that conversation was really a hard fight. ”
The hearts of the dragon people tightened, is this admitting defeat? Dick couldn't help but feel a little proud when he heard Xiao Yi's words.
However, Xiao Yi's next words made Dick stunned.
"But for those who only know a little about hearsay, and only know about that conversation, they are raising the bar. For example, you also failed to understand the meaning of the words, and you were trembling with fear, but you were still raising the bar for the sake of face. ”
"What......"
Xiao Yi continued: "Anyone who has read the whole article can understand that it is not important whether it is a fish or something, the point is that the sentence "please follow its roots" can also be understood as...... If you can't come to a conclusion, don't take it seriously, and go back to the beginning. ”
"......" Dick was stunned, he could probably understand what Xiao Yi meant.
But it was precisely because of understanding that Dick really felt that he was crushed by Xiao Yi's IQ!
Shereya also felt the same way, while Teak Bing Tian was completely confused.
Sherea couldn't help but sigh: "I still don't understand it, is this the so-called [Dao] in the wisdom of the Dragon Kingdom?" ”
"Time is running out, so it's okay." Xiao Yi looked at Shereya and said, "Don't think about [Dao] too complicated, you can simply understand it as [Respect for Objective Laws]. ”
Although the latter words seem to be very important, everyone still cares more about Xiao Yi's previous words.
Everyone looked at Xiao Yi and asked suspiciously, "Lack of time?" What do you mean? ”
However, Xiao Yi had now changed back to their familiar appearance.
“…… Well? Xiao couldn't help but wonder: "Why don't you go to dinner early in the morning, why are you looking at me?" If you don't go, I'll go. ”
After that, Xiao Yi went out to eat directly, leaving only the three people in the house looking at each other.
