Chapter Seventy-One: The Demon Lock Tower (5)

Since there was still a long way to go from Wuding Cave Mansion, Shen Yi simply asked Zhou Yiyu to let the black lightning come out and go directly to the car.

This was the first time they had used a car in the Sword and Fairy World, and Zhou Yiyu finally returned to his place, and Li Xiaoyao and the others were as surprised as if they had discovered a new continent and asked what this thing was. Shen Yi used wooden oxen and horses to fool the past, and then he found that many of the inventions that he had realized in the world were not necessarily completely elusive in the eyes of the ancients, and some things were just old existences in new forms.

There is a car to travel, and the speed of the journey is much faster.

Half an hour later, everyone came to the Wuding Cave Mansion, and Shen Yi asked Wei Chibai and them to protect Li Xiaoyao to go in to clear the monsters, while he stayed outside.

"What?" asked Wei Chibai.

Shen Yi replied: "I want to find the pages of the Three Halal Sutras, you won't forget the gambling contract." ”

Wei Chibai snorted: "Okay, that won't bother you." ”

The group had already walked towards the cave.

There were two shrimp soldiers in front of the house, and when they saw someone coming over and were about to ask, Wen Rou had already stepped forward and crushed the two shrimp soldiers with two whips: "Hurry up and do it, and strive to enter the next layer as soon as possible." ”

The group has already slaughtered in.

Shen Yi sat in the car and watched them enter the cave, and after a while, he said lazily: "Come out, I really want to ask you for help this time." ”

The figure of the girl in white had appeared behind him.

She said, "You want me to help you find the distribution whereabouts of the Taiqing Five Thunder Mystic Law True Scriptures?"

Shen Yi looked back and saw that the long hair that originally covered his face had spread out, revealing a clear little face.

He laughed and said, "I know I can't hide it from you...... Can you help me? I made a bet with somebody else. ”

"Yes, but you have to promise me one condition. ”

Shen Yi shook his head: "No, this time I don't plan to promise you any conditions." ”

The girl in white was puzzled: "Why?"

"Because that's exactly what I'm going to teach you. Shen Yi jumped out of the car and walked in front of the girl: "Don't you want to have human emotions? Then you must understand that in the human world, interests are not the only bond." There are times when you have to learn to approach problems with emotions rather than interests. ”

The girl in white thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't understand. ”

This means that in people-to-people contact, not everything has to be exchanged. When people interact with each other, emotions are sometimes formed, and when there is this emotional bond, the interests become blurred. Although there is still a distribution of benefits sometimes, it is usually always intertwined with emotions and does not exist independently. ”

"You're saying that I give you information and you don't give me anything in return?"

Shen Yi hurriedly corrected: "You can't say that, it's just that friends help each other, which is the embodiment of friendship." ”

"The problem is that the current situation only exists for me to help you, and without you to help me, such a friendship does not mean anything to me. ”

Shen Yi sighed: "This is the crux of your thinking, when you consider whether to establish a friendship, you are from the perspective of value or not, and feelings should not have the question of value or not, it should be based on mutual appreciation or liking." ”

"But isn't that the same with humans now?" the girl asked rhetorically.

Shen Yi couldn't help but be stunned.

Yes, in fact, human beings are not like this now, many people often see that the other party is worthy of deep friendship when making friends, and there is a selection at the beginning.

Then he nodded: "Yes, but not all." Not all people are like this, and not all feelings are necessarily only interested. Human beings are complex, and emotion and reason are always intertwined. In fact, most of them are emotional...... Especially women. ”

"But the human beings I see are usually always profit-oriented. ”

That's because this interest involves life and death, so we have to care, but in terms of life and death, we will be much more emotional. Your problem is that you think only rationally and not emotionally, and the human problem is more emotional. ”

"Then why do you always face everything rationally? ”

Shen Yi was stranded again.

The girl had learned to slap him in the face with herself.

In fact, it's not that he wants to get rid of this account, it's just that the three halal scriptures are not trivial, and the little girl wants to put forward the price, which is definitely not a trivial matter. In the present situation, he wants to do things for the little girl, and nine times out of ten it is the kind of thing that will anger the Supreme Council. Whether the Supreme Council is human or ghostly, at least they now hold the power and are able to control the adventurers. Shen Yi never wanted to provoke the majesty of the Supreme Council in such a situation.

The second is that this is indeed a help to the little girl herself, and it is his promise to the girl in white.

The third and most important reason is that it should be good for humanity itself.

He didn't know if the little girl was a human being, a god, or something else, but it was an irrefutable fact that she had incredible power. Shen Yi didn't know what an emotionless god was like, but he knew how humans felt when they looked at ants.

Therefore, he hopes that this god can have feelings, just like dogs in the world will like dog friends who "stop cars and save dogs", and no matter who is right and who is wrong in the dispute between dog friends and non-dog friends, at least for dogs, dog friends are right.

Therefore, if an emotionless "god" can have such a thing as emotion, it is like putting shackles on her hands and feet.

Because of this, Shen Yi had to do this no matter what-he didn't know how far this girl in white would develop in the future, but he had a vague feeling that he must not let her develop like this.

Hearing the girl say this at this moment, Shen Yi thought about it for a while, and finally replied: "I admit that I am also a person who puts interests first in everything, but this does not mean that I have no feelings. Some of the experiences in the past have made me a little extreme......"

Shen Yi sat down slowly and began to recount the past events he had experienced, while the girl listened quietly.

If you look at Shen Yi's expression again at this time, you will find that his face is full of serenity at the moment, with some melancholy and helplessness, which is something that almost no one can see from his face since he entered the city.

He quietly recounted those experiences: "Actually, during that time, I had the urge to rush over and stab those bastards a few times every day...... But I knew I had to restrain myself. A long period of repression, if it doesn't make people crazy, will make him numb. Numbness, yes, it is a physiological emotional blockade mechanism that makes it easy for me to stop being moved by the outside world and live in a world that belongs only to me. We usually describe them as mechanical, puppet...... Just like you are now. ”

He looked at the girl: "Life always tends to have what we don't have, and we give up some of what we have in exchange for something we don't have. For me at that time, pure rational control of all my actions was the key to my success, so at that time, I gave up all emotions, love and hate, joy and hate, until I achieved my goal. Then I came to Bloody City, and I found that this was a world that also needed to be faced calmly, a more perverted and bloody world. So I didn't try to change myself...... But that doesn't mean it's a good thing. ”

This is the first time he really opened his mind and said what was on his mind, the pain hidden in his heart, but he didn't expect it to be not to any of his friends, but to a little girl in front of him who didn't know what human emotions were.

"You're saying you don't like that?" the girl asked.

"Nobody will like it. Shen Yi replied leisurely: "You have seen the world of pirates of the Caribbean, Barbossa has an immortal body, but he can't feel the taste of being a human being, so he is willing to give up the immortal body and taste the taste of the apple." For you, emotion is apple, and possession is sweetness. You've always wanted it, but you don't want to give it up...... It's impossible. ”

The girl nodded: "From the perspective of interests, I am willing to give up some benefits and get some emotions." The problem is that even if I agree to help you do things for free now, I won't immediately have a so-called affection, right?"

"You are still weighing everything by the gains and losses of interests, and in the process of pursuing emotions, the abandonment of interests itself is a necessary price. Sometimes when you help others for free, you also get a sense of joy, and that happiness is part of the emotion. ”

"I don't feel happy about helping people for free. ”

"But that's what you're after. ”

The girl was finally silent.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, and finally looked at Shen Yi: "Maybe I can try, but I'm not sure what this can change." ”

"Some changes are subtle, they happen step by step. Trying to do something unreciprocated, trying to derive pleasure from the gratitude of others, is the first step to having emotions. ”

"Will you be grateful to me?" the girl asked.

Shen Yi paused again, thought about it and replied, "It's hard to say. In his opinion, this little girl is no different from a machine now, and humans will not appreciate the service of machines. But for a machine that can have its own mind and strive to generate human feelings, there may be some gratitude. So Shen Yi replied: "But I'll at least say thank you." Sometimes we help others and all we need is a thank you. ”

So the girl nodded: "Then, I look forward to the kind of gratitude and happiness you said." ”

As she spoke, she raised her right hand and pointed it into the air, and a little ripple appeared.

When the sky changes color and glows with a crystal luster, it becomes a huge picture.

It was a three-dimensional image, but it was presented against the background of the sky under the fingers of the little girl. The picture is impressively the interior of the entire Lock Demon Tower.

The girl's voice was clear: "The red dots and purple dots represent the monsters that live in the Lock Demon Tower, and the darker the color, the more powerful they are. The Taiqing Five Thunder Mystic Law Sutra you are looking for is divided into nine parts, distributed on the nine floors of the tower, displayed in blue light points, and there are traps or guards next to each page, but with your ability, traps are not a problem. ”

"Is the Taiqing Five Thunder Mystic Law True Scripture a record related to the system?" Looking at the huge screen in the sky reflecting the graphics under the flip of the girl's fingers, Shen Yi had already quickly run his three-dimensional image memory function to record these pictures.

"Yes. The girl replied: "The system needs rules, and when the whole space operates according to the rules established by the system, some traces of the operation will be automatically recorded and generated as the mission world is established." In your words, it is the plot characters who watch the sky at night and comprehend the way of heaven. Of course, not all worlds produce rules, but the higher the world, the closer it is to the rules, and the easier it is to generate them. ”

"I said how could the Supreme Council let the rules of the system be recorded, feelings are not of their design. ”

"Of course they don't design this kind of thing, not only do they not design it, but they use all sorts of methods to cover it up, including the story maze mode, to ensure greater oversight and to add an excuse to intervene in the mission world temporarily. ”

I see.

It turns out that the so-called plot maze itself is a pretense for the administrator to intervene in the task to add an excuse to closely monitor the behavior of the adventurer.

From beginning to end, the Supreme Council did not intend for any adventurer to obtain the Three Halal Sutras, and it was for this reason that after Shen Yi found the first one, he would get a reminder like "Unidentifiable items, return them to Shushan to get the reward of the head of Shushan".

This groundbreaking hint speaks for itself.

"But aren't these mission worlds created by the city? The history of the characters in the plot is written out of thin air, and it should only exist in memory, why does this kind of historical memory of observing the sky at night and comprehending the way of heaven actually form an objective fact?"

The picture in the sky is still moving, and the internal picture of the Lock Demon Tower is unfolding layer by layer.

The girl's voice continued: "In your eyes, the creation of the world in the city may be just a matter of thought, but for space, it is a development process that completely follows the rules. Just like the Terminator in Li Xiaoyao's eyes, it is just a finished product, and even in your eyes, it is just a tool, but for the staff of your home world, every part of the Terminator has an exact production procedure and process. There are some surprises in this, so what's so strange?"

"What's more, I'm afraid that some people are deliberately doing something strange in this?" Shen Yi asked tentatively.

"I'm just making it a little deeper, a little more systematic. The girl did not deny it.

As she spoke, she waved her hand, and the picture flipped to reveal the ninth floor in the Lock Demon Tower.

A tall demon god with six arms was stepping on Megatron's face in anger, and around him, seven divine dragons soared and let out an earth-shattering roar.

The last point of blue light was on the body of this tall demon god.

Shen Yi took a deep breath and nodded at the girl in white: "Thank you!"
