"What are your abilities?"
[If you really want to know, I can tell you. 】
Gourd was silent for a moment, and then added: [Make a wish, but my ability is very small and I can only provide limited wishes, and you don't need to pay any price. So what would you like to achieve now? If I can do it I can definitely do it. 】
Zhang Ming's scalp was numb at these words and his body was trembling. He subconsciously wanted to use his experienced insult ability to humiliate this gourd.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll endure it for now!"
"What's your relationship with [Long-cherished Wish]? What are you doing here?"
[It made a certain wish to me. I can’t tell you this wish now because I’m in a bad mood after being beaten and scolded by you. 】
Zhang Ming shuddered, why are these wishing monsters coming one after another?
He changed the question: "What is the difference between 䱱 and [long-cherished wish]?"
Gourd said: [My rules are extremely flawed, because others make wishes to me without paying any price, so I can only realize extremely limited wishes. But I would lie to protect myself from suffering too high a price. 】
[It has almost no rule flaws, but it doesn't lie. 】
"So what you just said were all lies?"
[If I wanted to lie, I would not tell you this fact. Of course, in general, I tend to be honest. 】
At this moment, Bai Ze's loud voice sounded like a cauldron: "Why did [Long-cherished Wish] secretly kill my partner Six Blind? Why does it want to control fate!"
The gourd was silent for a while, and then replied quietly: [In many cases, it does not understand some things, and it does not understand the meaning of these things. I am sorry, because it has no soul and no self. 】
[But the rules require it to give a reply, so it can only do this. 】
"What the hell?" Shimama was a little confused. Are there any strange things in the world that don't have a self?
Is this the case with you too?
At the bottom of the silent abyss, a man, a stone, and a goat's head were confronting this strange gourd.
The atmosphere was not exactly harmonious.
Zhang Ming was racking his brains to think whether this thing was true or false.
Especially when he was leaving the abyss tomorrow, he really couldn't wait to see the blue sky and white clouds outside, and didn't want to stay in this ghost place...
But the sudden appearance of the inexplicable gourd brought many variables.
Zhang Ming couldn't help but adjust his stance and glanced at the goat's head with a missing tooth.
"To put it simply, [Long-cherished Wish] has intelligence, but no heart."
Bai Ze seemed to recall some distant memory and sighed slightly, "A long time ago, there was a species called Wangxiang. It was a man-eating monster living in the water. It was shaped like a child and had red skin. It's completely black, with red paws, big ears and long arms."
"After they eat humans, they imitate humans and live in the water for the rest of their lives, but in the end they have no intention, they just imitate."
"There is another species called the Hagoromo, which are monsters wearing feathers. There are both men and women. The men can have sex, rape the males, and make the males pregnant. In fact, they have no heart, they are just imitating."
"It turns out that [Long-cherished Wish] is also like this..."
"Having no heart means that you can't sense the existence of 'I'?" Zhang Ming's expression changed.
There are actually many creatures that cannot sense "self-awareness", such as flies, ants and mosquitoes, they all have no "I"; chickens, ducks and geese also cannot sense "I", everything is instinctive, they will eat when they are hungry, and they will eat when they are sleepy. Just sleep.
When Hulu heard the discussion of this group of lunatics, the golden light flashed. Are you secretly saying bad things and not avoiding the people involved at all?
"A chatbot without emotions!" Zhang Ming suddenly understood and explained, "It will not be ashamed or embarrassed. It seems to humans to have extremely high emotional intelligence, but in fact it is just a robot."
"In other words, its thinking is not thinking in the human sense. All its external manifestations serve 'desires'."
"Its so-called emotions are just pretended. It doesn't even have the kind of cognition that humans think of. Just like a computer playing Go, it actually can't understand the fun and meaning of playing Go, but it can crush humans and even any other Intelligent species."
"It's a bit similar to AI. The existence of this kind of thing is really... amazing."
Gourd became increasingly unhappy: [You guessed it right, [Long-cherished Wish] is indeed like this, but I have self-awareness, so I can move more flexibly in this realm. 】
[And don’t you feel embarrassed talking about me in person like this? 】
The entire abyss was silent. Zhang Ming couldn't help pinching his nose. He was thick-skinned and a little indifferent.
Bai Ze's scarlet pupils flickered and he opened his mouth, unable to speak.
Even if this gourd is a suspicious enemy, it would be too embarrassing to be caught slandering him in person.
Bai Ze's thin skin was broken at this moment.
Lao Zhang suddenly thought of a good idea, patted his forehead gently, and used the ability of "soul splitting" to create a soul child body.
He secretly wondered if using the soul child body to talk could reduce some risks?
So he used his soul body to control his body and said, "Gourd...can you please avoid me for a while? For about an hour."
Hulu was very satisfied with his attitude: [If this is a wish, yes. 】
[Then I won’t have any response within an hour. 】
Zhang Ming grabbed this guy and threw it away with all his strength.
"boom!"
The gourd flew out like a cannonball.
After waiting for a few minutes, he really didn't come back.
…
As for the gourd that flew a certain distance in the sky, it fell silently into the sea far away. The ubiquitous green flames did not cause any harm to it.
There happened to be an abyss monster passing by, and it bit the gourd, but the gourd didn't resist.
Immediately afterwards, the monster found that it could not bite, so it had no choice but to give up on this extremely hard unknown product.
It floats on the ocean, looking at the dim world, sighing slightly.
…
"What should I do? Old Comrade Bai Ze, I can't continue to stay in the abyss, right? Once I go out, will this thing run away... and go to other places to bewitch other intelligent beings?"
Bai Ze was silent for a moment and sighed: "It should be aimed at you."
"The first is that you are strong enough and have good potential at a young age; the second is that you may have something that it wants, and that something can help [Long-cherished Wish] come to this world."
"As for the third one, [Long-cherished Wish] has anchored you. It shouldn't have any extra power to anchor other creatures, so this gourd will always haunt you."
"As for what it says, I don't think it's credible..."
"I didn't want to believe it, so, can I leave the abyss?" Zhang Ming said word by word.
Bai Ze was silent again, the flames in his pupils beating.
The dark sea water was filled with invisible murderous intent, as if the two sides would fight if they disagreed.
84 years.
Once the Hong Gang people left, Lao Zhang would definitely not be able to endure it anymore if he stayed alone in this sterile place.
He doesn't have such a good ideological and moral character as Bai Ze, and he will stay in this abyss all his life.
Shitou suddenly said: "Yangmama, please come with us. Don't embarrass me, I'm just a fishing bait. Is it worth making such a fuss about? [Long-cherished Wish] is close to being sealed. How much power can it exert?"
"There are similar baits everywhere in the Demon Sea. Can you handle it?"
"You wouldn't think that in this world of stagnant water, there would only be this little danger."
Bai Ze was just silent.
"You must at least understand this side of the world in order to protect it. Otherwise, the old antique who knows nothing will be eliminated sooner or later."
"Besides, it's just a demon, are you so panicked..." Shimama hesitated, humming something.
Zhang Ming was stunned for a moment, knowing what the black stone was referring to.
After so many years of contact, apart from his old-fashioned personality, Lao Yangtou's moral character is indeed quite excellent, almost the same as what is recorded in myths and legends.
It is indeed a "nice gentleman"-like existence.
In order to reassure this old sheep-head, he had to explain a little bit about his trump card.
"I know what that gourd is coveting. The first one may be the World Tree. If it occupies the World Tree, it may generate enough power to make [Long-cherished Wish] come over. Of course, this matter is difficult, although the World Tree There is no intelligence, but under normal circumstances, it cannot be touched. I will hide the World Tree so that it cannot be touched."
"Second, the corpse of the demon god. The energy contained in the corpse of a demon god is naturally unfathomable. However, I control the spatial coordinates. As long as I don't bring it in, it will be impossible for it to get in."
"Ahem, Mr. Bai Ze, please don't disclose this matter to others."
"After we get out, there are many ways to deal with this gourd... With a temperature of hundreds of millions of degrees, absolute zero, can it really be invincible? The worst case scenario is to throw it into the sun."
The old sheep head thought for a moment, and that was true. Nothing could withstand the power of the sun.
etc!
Suddenly, as if it heard something extraordinary, its scarlet flame-like pupils froze.
The corpse of the devil? You...you have the corpse of a demon?
The huge goat head visibly trembled. It was frightened, and the gray cocoons at the bottom of the abyss also trembled together. .
This means some kind of action of fearful vigilance.
In the era when Bai Ze lived, it was really miserable to be bullied by the devil.
Even after so many years, it still has a huge psychological shadow.
"Ahem, the devil is not invincible. Just think of more solutions." Zhang Ming said calmly.
"I'm locked up in this hellish place, and I don't have anything I want. Even if I think of a solution, I can't implement it."
…
(PS: Please ask for a monthly ticket at the end of the month and leave the abyss tomorrow! QAQ)
