"It's impossible." On the face of No. 16, the words "completely deny" were written, "What is the future? It's something that didn't happen. What we believe in is science and theory. Don't be fooled by Feng Shui divination. Me. I don't believe anyone can see the future, even if that person is Li Qingshui!"
"No, no, sixteen, don't get excited. I used the wrong words. To be precise, Li Qingshui didn't see the future, but calculated the future..." No. 17 opened her baby's mouth, and said loudly and firmly One word, "Calculate!"
"How to calculate the future?" Sixteen frowned. "Is this something that can be calculated? It's not something theoretical. The future is unpredictable. There is no formula, no reason, and infinite variables. How to calculate?"
"Do you really think that the future is infinitely variable?" Seventeen smiled and said, "I don't think so, I believe that time is an axis! People can't escape the vicious circle of time and the banana peel theory."
"The banana peel theory or the ten-minute theory..." No. 16 seemed to be thinking about what No. 17 said. The pupils in his eyes suddenly enlarged and then shrank. The whole content of Minute Theory seems to want to use this to strengthen something.
"The ten-minute theory, if time is an axis, can a person kill himself ten minutes ago? The answer is no. Because this is a huge refutation, if a person kills himself ten minutes ago, he will naturally live It's less than ten minutes later, so how can he return to ten minutes ago and kill himself after he can't live for ten minutes?"
"So, if time is an axis, even if a person can go back to ten minutes ago, he will definitely not be able to kill himself ten minutes ago. If he has to kill himself, at that point in time, he will be squeezed out countless times. He may be slipped by a banana peel and fall to death the moment he pulls out the knife, or he may be choked to death by his own saliva the moment he picks up the gun.” Ten While talking, No. 6 returned firm eyes, "But old seventeen, although this theory is valid, it is all based on the argument that time is an axis. What if time is not an axis? If time is composed of countless points, Is every moment a universe? Is the future still doomed?"
"Hahaha, Sixteen, you are indeed a very smart guy, and you can think of this problem faster than me." Seventeen stood still and said with a smile: "Yes, if time is an axis, then the past cannot be changed. If the past cannot be changed, then according to the principle of time continuation, the future is controllable. Therefore, in order to deny that the future is controllable, you deny that time is an axis. But even if you deny this axis, I still think that the future is controllable and even say , is predestined."
"What a sad argument." Number sixteen looked into the eyes of number seventeen, "What did you see?"
"I saw the feeling of the future." Number 17 narrowed his eyes, as if recalling what it was like when he saw that feeling for the first time, "Or, I saw Li Qingshui's vision of the future." Feel."
"A very pessimistic mood. I don't know what kind of world it will be after the four brain mutations, but I seem to have felt a little bit of Li Qingshui's mood. Then, I have thought a lot these days, about this The world, about the big willow tree, about us."
"In the end, I came to the conclusion that even if time is not the axis, the future is predictable." When Seventeenth said this, his eyes showed a rare sadness—this kind of sadness looks very calm, just like Li Qingshui Sit up from the experimental bed, drink alcohol, look at the photos, and face the tranquility in front of the big willow tree.
"Old Sixteen, have you ever thought about it, even if you don't talk about the time axis, just talk about our moment, our world, and our point, in fact, everything may be preordained." Looking at the sky, No. 17 said : "Look at all the rules of this world, are we predestined before we try to change it? The earth revolves around the sun, the moon revolves around the earth, rivers flow into the sea, and rocks fall into the ground. It’s the rules of the universe, and these are things that no one can change, we can use them, but we can’t change them—because it’s set.”
"Then look at us human beings. Many things are predestined. The spiral rules of our genes and the various physical rules in the universe are actually almost the same thing." No. 17 said: "We are born, What we are, we are what we are. Our genes determine our entire physical makeup and most, or at least half, of our personality traits…”
"But the other half are not acquired? How can you say that the future can be predicted?" The old Sixteenth National Congress cried out, as if he wanted to use this cry to vent his feelings that he didn't want to believe—because, in this world In the world, there is nothing more sad than the future can be expected.
Because, predictable represents four words - predestined.
"Acquired? Haha, this is the only thing that is not so ridiculous, but it is the thing that makes people feel like they have been tricked the most." Number Seventeen laughed, gesticulating with immature fingers, and tapped countless times in the air. "On this earth, everyone is a dot, or every life is a dot. From the moment of birth, these dots are determined to go to which place, which environment, which Under the rules. So, look, when you connect all these dots, what do you find?"
Number 17 drew dotted lines in the air, connecting the points marked just now. Then the dots in the air, under his continuous gestures and connections, finally intertwined into a huge net—a huge net that looks like an invisible hand.
"This is fate?" Number Sixteen called out, "The hand of fate?"
"Yes, I also call this hateful thing this name." Pointing to the giant net in the air, No. 17 said, "Every life is a point, and the shape and character of this point are innately determined by the rules of the spiral." Half, and the day after tomorrow, under the influence of various cosmic rules, original forces and spiral rules, his code of conduct has also been determined. What will he do, what kind of people he will meet, and what kind of people will he be influenced by .”
"Although each point will affect each other, because the distance between relatives is different, and the influence between points is different, but each point will affect each other. Then, you can see, these point, although they influence each other, they already have their own position from the moment of birth, and then no matter how they influence each other, they are all in this net."
"In layman's terms, a person's habits and personality are half born and half acquired. The so-called acquired is what other people have created for you, but if you look carefully, you will find that your acquired is actually the same. It is the innateness of other people, so no matter how this network affects each other, after being connected by various rules, it remains unchanged. This network is our present, our here, our moment.”
"So, after mastering all intelligent creatures and creatures, in fact, to a certain extent, you have mastered the present moment, and you can be called Gaia." Seventeenth said.
"Just like a willow tree?" Number 16 looked to the north. "Although intelligent creatures are intelligent, they are still in the net. Other species with only innate habits but no intelligence are even more in the net."
"Well, Willow can't be called Gaia, at best he can only be regarded as a guy who challenges Gaia. Because he can't master the whole big net, he can't master time and space and the rules of the universe." Seventeenth said Here, with a wave of his hand, he seemed to move forward the invisible big net in the air, "An instant is a net, and everything is predestined, so even if we cast this net into the long river of time, our The direction of flow can be determined after all.”
"So, I say that Li Qingshui has seen the future." No. 17 sighed: "Or he has calculated the future. When his brain is so wide that he can perceive all the rules of the universe around him, he can perceive all the rules of biology around him." After that, he could, in a way, calculate the future."
"What a huge amount of calculation is that?" Hearing this conclusion, No. 16 gradually broke out in cold sweat, "Is that guy still human?"
"Being able to see the future, I no longer define him as a human being." Number Seventeen sighed deeply, "I always thought that I was the closest to that guy, after all, I was the last one to be cloned But the closer I get to him now, the more I realize how far away I am from him."
"Seeing the future, what exactly does that guy want to do?" No. 16 became more and more confused when he thought about it, "Why did he choose to die when he knew the future? Also, that guy Willow has really controlled the present ?"
"I don't know, I really don't know." Number 17 shook his head, very depressed, "I really can't guess what these two guys are thinking, two lunatics, one wants to challenge Gaia, and the other wants to change the future , I don't know what these two guys are thinking, and probably never will. But I think..."
"Back to our final and initial question, I think, since Li Qingshui has seen the future, so, I think, Liu Chang will not die in the battle between the future and Liu." Number 17 squinted his eyes. , "Even if the data we calculated is that Liu Chang will die 100% when encountering Liu!"
"Since the future is doomed that Liu Chang will not die, no matter how 100% he is, there should be variables!"
