"Come out, come out!" Cao Xuefei held Zhou Zhiqi's hand tightly, staring at the dim light in front of her.
"That's it." Lin Sen said calmly while drinking tea.
"Isn't this just an egg?" Cao Xuefei asked in confusion.
Zhou Zhiqi looked at the egg in front of her and found that there was a trace of pink light coming from it, projecting a smiling face. "Xue Fei, look, is it smiling? It's so cute!"
"This is the soul carrier of our thoughts. Now it is just an unconscious baby state, only able to project these simple emoticons to express functional joy, anger, sadness and joy."
"Will this egg hatch any treasure?"
"The image comes from the heart, and I don't know what it will print in the egg."
Chen Zhang took Lin Sen's words and said: "Look at Brother Sen, are the dark circles under his eyes deeper? Are there more white hairs?"
"Understood, make arrangements. Brother Sen, Sister Zhiqi, let's go to Lao Chen's house to eat roasted whole lamb."
"Sister Zhiqi, this is delicious, please try it. Our Lao Chen has a hobby, which is to herd sheep. I didn't understand it before, but since I ate his roasted whole lamb, I understand it immediately."
"You know about the herd effect, right? I guess your old man Chen was thinking about it when he was herding sheep." Zhou Zhiqi looked at Cao Xuefei who was eating meat and said with a smile.
"Speaking of the herd effect, tell me, is this a conscious behavior or an unconscious behavior? Recently, your brother Sen has plunged into the study of consciousness."
"Unconscious behavior beneath the conscious mind, conscious behavior beneath the unconscious mind. The emphasis is on the understanding of consciousness."
"I think we have made a subjective mistake, that is, we first assume that humans with consciousness are smarter than other species. But when I stand on the mountain and walk in the forest, I will find that I am very small, and wisdom has no place in nature. Everywhere, the dumber the person, the smarter they feel.”
Lin Sen smiled knowingly after hearing this: "Xiao Fei, the psychological phenomenon you are talking about is called the 'Dunning-Kruger Effect'. In 1995, a middle-aged man named Wheeler discovered that words written with lemon juice It will be invisible and will only appear when it is close to a heat source. So he thought, if I smear lemon juice all over my body, as long as I am not close to a heat source, wouldn’t I be invisible? So, Uncle Wheeler smeared lemon juice all over his body. He robbed two banks in Pittsburgh in broad daylight. After the police arrested Wheeler, they briefly wondered if he was on drugs or crazy. Wheeler also muttered in disbelief: 'I put lemon juice on it. There's no reason to see me!'"
After saying this, everyone burst into laughter.
Zhou Zhiqi looked at Lin Sen who was slightly worried and said calmly: "So, that egg is trying to understand consciousness and knock on the door of the soul?"
Lin Sen touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Fei just mentioned the understanding of consciousness. Lao Chen and I also feel the same way. Human beings are like this Uncle Wheeler. We think human beings are the most advanced existence in this world, and It is natural to feel that because humans have consciousness, they are smarter than all other species. We do not believe that cells are intelligent, or that we do not believe that non-living things are intelligent. For example, the ground we step on now , the earth, the moon, the sun we see, etc. Wisdom may be the embodiment of the laws of all things in the world, the soul is the portrait, and consciousness is the ripples after the neurons in our brain are electrocuted. Maybe we are too small, so We cannot realize the wisdom that is as big as the earth or as small as dust.”
"Have you ever seen sunlight shining into a dimly lit room, and dust dancing in the sun's beams? I think they are intelligent beings, but from human cognition, we are not aware of them. What we can be aware of is the surrounding environment. Insects flying under the lamp." As she spoke, Zhou Zhiqi pointed her finger at the night lamp not far away.
