Chapter 307

Aoki didn't expect to get a real answer from suhuilan. The question has been in his heart for so many years. In fact, he doesn't remember how many years have passed, or even when he began to live in Liuying lane.

He once chatted with the neighbors in Liuying lane. The neighbors said that when he first came to Liuying lane, he stood under an old willow tree dressed like this, with a bird on the top of his head. At first, people thought he was shooting advertisements or portraits there. Liuying lane is an old street, so people often come to take pictures, and the crew came to take pictures. So the neighbors didn't take it seriously at that time. Later, they found that there were no photographers or cameras nearby, so they began to doubt whether the man was ill.

The neighborhood said that he stood under the willow for a day and night. Later, when he saw him again, he lived in a flower bar.

Aoki also asked the lifelong flower how he came to the bar. Every time I ask this question, I touch his forehead all my life and ask him with worry. If I drink too much or have a fever, I'm not sick.

He didn't remember standing under the big willow for a day and a night.

That willow is very old. It is said that it was the first willow planted in Liuying lane. Other willows were inserted with the paper cut from the tree. Every spring, the old willow will hang many graceful green branches to cover the withered and twisted trunk, so as to announce to the world that its vitality is still very strong.

Aoki has no memory, but can't find the memory before that. At least what happened later is still very clear, but he just can't dream. But he always felt that there was something wrong with his brain, not that he had no memory. Every time he recalls, he will have a headache, just like wearing a hoop curse. As soon as he recalls, he will be cursed.

Suhuilan looked at the green wood in a daze and asked, "what do you think?"

Aoki said, "nothing."

Suhuilan smiled and didn't speak.

Subconscious thinking can't be concealed. If it's an ordinary person, what he thinks is tantamount to mobilizing his memory and will appear in his dream. But Aoki can't even dream. Of course, he can't know what he's thinking. He doesn't even need to use mental power to hide and shield his thoughts.

"Go out," Aoki said.

Su Huilan nodded, "it's time to go out."

From Su Huilan's dream, they returned to the hall.

He found that when Su Huilan withdrew from her dream, there was no sign and feeling of dream collapse. He didn't know whether her mind control had special skills or whether there was any special reason for the game.

They stood in front of the mirror again.

Aoki was thinking, suhuilan just went in from the mirror, so did she come out from the mirror bit by bit? He should come out and wait first, so that he can see how suhuilan came out. But now it's too late to regret. You can't ask others to go in again.

Standing in front of the mirror for a while, Aoki asked, "where are the archive and exit options for this game?"

He and Su Huilan are now in the box like a coffin. The box cuts off the perceptual connection between their consciousness and body through some mechanism, and directly inputs the game scene into their brain. So, how does the box know when they want to leave the game?

From the perspective of the game, there should be a mechanism that allows players to quit at any time.

Su Huilan said: "now it's just for us to test the internal logic of devices and games. The archive and exit functions have not been completed. However, I heard that this function may not be available in the future."

"Er... How to end the game?" Aoki was speechless. Which game would have no exit option?

"You can forcibly shut down."

"Forced shutdown? We are in the box. Our body perception is cut off and our hands and feet can't move. How can we force shutdown?"

"The first generation of space box products is not perfect enough," Su Huilan said. "So when we came in, Professor Mei set the time for us."

"That means we can only wait here now?" Aoki wanted to say that this is a regular shutdown, not a forced shutdown.

"That's right."

"How long did the professor set for us?"

"Two minutes. Including the time of switching on and off, our actual time in the dream will not exceed 30 seconds." Su Huilan smiled. "This is also the most fascinating part of the game in the future."

Aoki nodded in agreement.

Now the biggest problem of the game is to consume too much time and energy, affecting people's study and work. The game "dream guide" has been played by players for a long time. In the real world, it may only take a few minutes, without delaying work and study and affecting life.

When you are waiting for the elevator, after class, when you call a car and wait for the driver to come, when you make out with your wife, when she takes a bath, when you make instant noodles... You can wear a space box (if the offspring products of that thing are convenient enough). That little time is enough for you to expand your territory and make a career in the game world.

However, Aoki couldn't help worrying.

"Can humans really be satisfied with playing for a few minutes?"

"Maybe." suhuilan's answer seemed not very confident.

Have humans ever satisfied anything? If you indulge in this game, it will be more terrible than ordinary games!

Aoki always felt that the development of this space box and the dream guide had deviated from the original intention of the professor.

Two minutes of time passes quickly in reality, but in the pure conscious world, there is almost no passage of time. If you don't need to stimulate brain cells to retrieve memory, and brain cells are an active substance after all, they will be excited and active only in a certain chemical environment, and the chemical reaction takes time. Otherwise, people's consciousness will stay in a dream like space and really become eternal in a second.

Aoki and suhuilan waited in the hall, and the atmosphere was a little awkward and boring.

"In fact, we can go out for a walk," Su Huilan suggested. "The lower our brain excitement, the slower the passage of time. There are still some scenery to enjoy in this prehistoric town."

"Good." Aoki readily agreed.

They walked out of the hall of the pyramid and came to the street of the town. Aoki looked back. The pyramid towered into the cloud. The upside down pyramid above was in the cloud, as if it would fall at any time.

"Do you think the two pyramids will turn upside down?" asked suhuilan.

Aoki was surprised: "why?"

Su Huilan giggled: "no reason, I just think this design is very strange."

Aoki is not sure if Su Huilan knows anything, but she obviously doesn't want to say anything more.

They were walking in the town.

There is no one else in the town now. I don't know whether there will be more players in the future, or whether others will only immerse themselves in their own game world and don't care about the town at all.

"What do you mean by making such a small town?" Aoki asked.

"I don't know. It's always useful to him."

"This is neither reality nor anyone's dream. Where is it?"

"Here is a scene designed in the game. Human perception in such a world is simulated by computer, including vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, vestibular system induction, etc., and then these perceptions are directly input into the brain through the continuous action of high-frequency light pulses in the space box, so that our consciousness will think that we have come to this scene It's hard to tell the true from the false. "

Su Huilan said with a smile, "generally speaking, this is an illusion."

"Hallucination?" Aoki thought, "what's the difference between hallucination and dream?"

Su Huilan said: "the difference is that hallucinations do not depend on people's own memory, nor do they need spiritual force to support space."

Aoki agrees with suhuilan's statement of hallucinations and dreams, but he always feels that this prehistoric town and the pyramid hall are not so simple.

This is not a human dream. Can it be another dream? For example, computer dreams.

At this moment, he thought of ghosts again.
