Shu Kang quickly stood up straight, crossed his hands to protect his chest, and the small platform sank into the hollow tree hole again, and dropped back to the bottom.
Opening the door, sure enough, there was a young man outside the door who also wore fish skin armor and had a big-eyed "octopus" wrapped around his waist. He looked about 20 years old.
"This is the cashier in charge of Hai Xiaolou sent by Master Mao." The boss introduced this new customer to Shukang.
"Hello! Welcome to 'Haimai'. We saw you in the main room. You are the 3333rd new member of the human race who came to us. According to your action records, your physical fitness , intelligence, age, gender, and physical conditions, all meet the qualifications to join us and become one of us. Moreover, you will directly enter the top-level residence and be assigned a 90-square-meter viewing room. I will do it now I'll take you there." Hai Xiaolou smiled unhurriedly and announced the arrangement.
This Hai Xiaolou, I don’t know when, had already seen everything about Shu Kang, including all her indicators and action tracks - could it be that this is a world without privacy? terrible!
"In other words, you know everything about my every move when I come in?" Shu Kang felt that this matter was very important, so he should ask it clearly.
"Yes! We know everything about you." Hai Xiaolou also gave her a positive answer.
"You said you know everything, so tell me, what is my name?" Shukang didn't believe this, so he began to tease this confident young man.
"You are Mu Yi, the Master of the Magic Realm. After you came to the 'Interesting World', you were assigned to 'Controlled'. Then you met two apprentices, Jiao Yue and Yao Qiao, in the 'Se Shi An' Su Tuan. Now they are in The boat above the water is waiting for you, you have less than 47 hours left, you must complete the exploration here as soon as possible and find out where those people went after the boat capsized."
Hai Xiaolou's answer made Shu Kang extremely surprised. Even she herself had been reckless all the way, with questions in her mind to get to this point, and yet this child hidden in a "big lotus root" deep in the water actually I can tell so many fragments about her without missing a beat, as if I have always been with her but never appeared.
"Ah! That's it. How do you know so much about me?" Shukang was aroused with strong curiosity.
"Because of your thoughts! Our world is made up of living organisms full of neurons. Therefore, all incoming organisms and their own neurons can directly interact and communicate with this place. That is to say , as long as you touch any part of this place and have contact with it, all your information has been included in the general database of the information network here, and we in the main room are responsible for directly based on the mapping of these neural resonances. Get all the deep information without having to communicate.”
When Hai Xiaolou talks about the neural information interaction system here, it is as simple and natural as saying that a living person can breathe, without any highlights.
"Because of this, there is almost no communication cost here, and everyone needs almost no language communication. Just think about it, all kinds of information have been disseminated and received feedback as soon as possible. Here, it is a 'nothing' It is a place where all your needs and desires can be accepted and satisfied 100% without any misunderstanding. Living here can almost be said to be stress-free, and of course, there is no privacy. This is the price." Hai Xiaolou further confirmed that the social system of "no privacy" is the norm here.
"No privacy?" Shu Kang was surprised, "Wouldn't that mean that life is very impersonal? Doesn't everyone need to keep a little bit of their own space and not have a little bit of freedom?"
"This is a 'controlled world'. There is no need for 'freedom' here. Everything is under controllable and reasonable management. A perfect society, running smoothly and without errors. Living here is the lifelong wish of many people. Therefore, They would rather risk drowning and find this place without hesitation. They want to be a member of this place. I am responsible for accepting immigrants who have this wish. Aren't you here too?" Hai Xiaolou Finally told the reason why those people disappeared into the water.
"But, what's the point of living like this?" Shukang couldn't imagine that nearly 3,000 people would come here with such "yearning" and become a member here.
"'If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?' You must be thinking this, so let's invite these three brothers to tell you their stories!" Hai Xiaolou asked the question to the three teenagers around him , take them as examples.
"The three of us were born here. Our mother passed away after giving birth to the third child. We don't know who our father is. In fact, we don't remember much about them. It was the master who arranged for someone to take care of them. The three of us were brought up, and they told us about the origins of our parents." The eldest brother began to talk.
"The people who raised us said that our parents also swam down from above. After arriving here, they were not used to having everything seen through by others at first. They had no privacy and no sense of freedom. However, losing After they gained freedom of individuality, they had no worries about food and clothing, and everything they thought about and wished for every day could be realized one by one. Over time, they got used to it, and stopped thinking about things like 'individuality' and 'freedom', and began to feel that life here was It’s very good, everything is arranged, everything is reasonable, and there is almost no need to use any brain.”
"This will definitely happen! People don't need to use their brains, so what's the difference between humans and animals?" Shukang thought to himself.
"There is no need to use their brains. Of course there will be negative effects. Their intelligence level has been seriously reduced, as well as their emotions. Because there is no longer any stimulation, they no longer have any excessive emotions. They even forget to cry and they don't like to laugh very much. , with a very peaceful expression every day. Finally, one day, my father lost control of his brain. When he went out to find my pet 'Big Head', he just brought 'Big Head' back, but he was accidentally stung by a jellyfish's sting. It was stabbed, and not long after, he died of the poison; but because of his father's departure, my mother remembered the feeling of "crying" for the first time. She cried for three days and three nights, and finally, while we were all asleep, When I was there, I also jumped into the water and never came out again." The boss finished.
"Such a sad story was told by the boss as if it were common gossip from other people's families. It can be seen that the relationship between them and their parents is indeed only biological, not nurturing, so the relationship between them is not deep."
Shu Kang felt that being "emotionless" could be inherited. Maybe when they were pregnant with the three of them, their mother's brain waves would have almost become a straight line!
