The Omniscient

Virtual universe? Lin Li was startled.

Buddha's pursuit turned out to be a virtual world?

If you can't ask for the real way, then give up, then go back.

Even when the network technology of the earth civilization has developed to a certain extent, it has begun to envisage uploading of consciousness, let alone alien civilization.

As long as the technology is high enough, it is entirely possible to create a virtual world that is almost indistinguishable from reality.

Huang Ji said: Seeking the Tao is the real Tao of our universe, but the Buddha is one-dimensional, and seeks the supreme from emptiness.

To put it bluntly, live in your own world and control the 'rules' that are one level lower than yourself.

Therefore, in the palm of the Buddha, there is a country, a thousand worlds, and everything is there.

The kingdom of Buddha is the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, which means the kingdom opened up by the enlightened.

This is the virtual world, everything you want to do can be easily accomplished, naturally it is bliss!

The only downside is that the upper limit of progress is sealed.

Everything that happens inside is either purely virtual or the result of a simulation based on the knowledge held by the creator.

The creator's knowledge comes from the real universe, so no matter how much the creator studies in the virtual universe, it is impossible to contribute to the progress of this civilization in the real universe.

Huang Ji sighed: Taoism talks about detachment, and detachment goes up.

Buddhism teaches enlightenment, turning back is the shore... If you can't get through on the top, you won't go, and you will be detached from the bottom...

The two cultural trends of thought, Taoism and Buddhism, are opposite but unified.

One stands in the perspective of the universe, recognizes the highest state, and then formulates an ideal goal.

From the perspective of life, one realizes that manpower is limited, and then gives a realistic plan.

Most of the civilizations of the universe are seekers, but there are seekers, and naturally there are those who give up halfway.

There is no shortage of salted fish anywhere... It takes unremitting persistence and great courage to be willing to explore the unknown in the endless sea of ​​suffering.

There is a virtual sandbox game universe in the palm of your hand, a thousand worlds, you can create at will, isn't it blissful? Lin Li understood at once.

Just imagining it, he couldn't help but feel that the reality is simply a sea of ​​misery!

Lin Li sighed: If you want me to choose... I will choose Buddha...

Huang Ji nodded and said, So Buddha must also be a very popular trend of thought in the universe. It cannot be said that it is wrong, because the ultimate goal of Dao has neither been proven nor falsifiable.

So logically, if there is a trend of thought premised on 'Tao can be achieved', there must be a cultural trend of thought on the premise that 'Tao cannot be achieved'.

On the question of 'whether the universe can be controlled by the rules' of a certain super civilization, complete the proof, or falsify. Only then will Buddha and Dao distinguish right from wrong.

Lin Li said, I am afraid that no civilization in the universe can prove or falsify this question?

Huang Ji glanced at him and said nothing.

Just now, he has used his information perception and got an exact answer: yes.

The laws of nature can be changed and created.

The universe allows the appearance of rule editors, that is, the so-called God can exist.

Road this way, the message made it clear that it was right.

The path of Buddha is wrong from the premise. It can only be regarded as an entertainment choice, not as a development direction of civilization.

If a civilization regards the creation of a real, but lower-level real world as a direction of effort, it will go a long way...

Of course, it's not impossible to keep going down and detached. Who cares about it?

Brother, you said this is a Buddha's phalanx, but it's metal... Lin Li said.

Huang Ji said: The aliens told Gautama to let him spread the thoughts of the Buddha, and naturally he would benefit from it.

The advantage is that 'in the next life, you should become a Buddha'. Gautama lived his whole life, then died in front of his disciples and passed away. This is the completion of his mission in this life, and the so-called 'afterlife' means that the consciousness uploads to the server after Nirvana and enters the mechanical body, so the metal mechanical body is called the 'Buddha bone'.

From that moment on, the mortal Gautama died and became the World Honored One of the earthly people. This is a certain Buddhist civilization, an invasion of the earth's culture. The World Honored One is probably responsible for bringing believers' consciousness into the Elysium.

I think it can be directly understood as... recruiting members... and the Buddha is the administrator, and the World Honored is just a category of administrators, which are about administrators specially set up for primitive civilizations.

Hearing this, Lin Li was a little surprised: As long as you believe in Buddhism, you can really enter the virtual world?

Huang Ji looked at him with a funny look, pointed at the finger on the table and said, Well, this is the only thing left for your Buddha...

... Lin Li looked at his fingers and said, The Buddha was killed?

Huang Ji said: In the past, there really was a Buddha on Earth, a 'Vajra body', but it should have been destroyed by other aliens soon... This finger is probably just a remnant left.

Although he said it in guesswork, he was actually quite sure that Sakyamuni's mechanical body was directly smashed by a beam of light that fell from the sky...

The beam of light emitted from the moon and directly vaporized most of Shakyamuni's body, with only a few remaining fragments.

This Buddha's phalanx is one of the fragments.

Huang Ji sighed inwardly: The moon is still awesome, that's the main civilization that really raised the earth in captivity. A certain Buddhist civilization probably just wanted to fight the autumn wind. It might not have been discovered at first, but when it was discovered later, it was immediately eliminated.

Thinking about it carefully, it is possible that Gautama was used. The real purpose of the Buddhist aliens may just be to collect some consciousness, to collect some NPCs of advanced wisdom, or it may even be just a test.

What the World Honored One, what promises you to become a Buddha, are all lies. Although it was really given, and it was given to Gautama in advance, but after Gautama became a Buddha and entered the body of a vajra, he was killed without having eternal life for a long time.

Wouldn’t the Buddhist alien who secretly fooled Gotama know about this kind of thing? It must have been expected.

In between, there may be an upper-level game between alien civilization groups, and Gautama is just a pawn of the earth.

Huang Ji knew from the Buddha's phalanx that in the few years of Gautama's short-lived existence of controlling the mechanical body, he had harvested a large amount of earthling consciousness, and all of them were transmitted through gravitational waves, and these consciousnesses were actually very precious.

True wisdom cannot be replicated. Although thinking is an electrochemical reaction, it is not limited to this.

Simulating the same electrochemical reaction through technology does not generate intelligence and self-thought.

The virtual world can simulate that electrochemical reaction and think with data, but it is still just 'hardware'. If you want to simulate the same intelligence as reality, there is always something missing.

What is lacking, even aliens do not know what it is, it is provided by the evolution of life in nature.

Want artificial? Yes, directly in the real universe, it can be achieved through biochemical technology or robotics, but in the virtual world, it cannot be created.

In the virtual world, low-level AI, high-level AI can be generated, and real NPCs can be loaded according to different technologies and computing resources.

The loaded real NPC is just a medium, memory and body can be generated technically, what kind of memory and what kind of racial template is generated, then what he is.

This is the advanced server in the virtual universe.

Otherwise, where does everything you want to do can be easily accomplished?

Some people cheer and some people cry. In the so-called world of bliss, there are still people who are entertained.

The Dao system eats people, the Buddhist system refines the soul, and the universe is so dark. Huang Ji sighed inwardly.

Lin Li looked at the Buddha's phalanx and said, Can this still be used? You were in a coma just now. Could it be that you entered the virtual world?

Huang Ji nodded and said, This thing has a very high technical content. There is also a miniature server in just one finger, and the energy is still sufficient.

I tried it just now, but I can't connect to the Internet, and the virtual world is empty and the database is destroyed. There is nothing, just a single-player sandbox with a blank map.

You'll know when you log in and take a look.

Lin Li said excitedly, Can I go in and have a look? Well, how do I log in?

He was gearing up, but couldn't do it.

Huang Ji said: It can take the initiative to pull in your consciousness, read it to me, and sing a lot...

He said the words like a spell again, and Lin Li said in astonishment: Is this a technological product or a magic weapon?

Huang Ji smiled and said: Controlling technology products requires a password, and logging into the game requires a password. Isn't this normal? The technology gap is too big, so it looks like a spell...

What I said just now is the password to apply for login. You must visualize a three-dimensional image at the same time, which is the password. Only when two of them are accurately done at the same time, will this Buddha bone respond and load your consciousness into go in.

This is just a sneak login, that is, a login method that does not give up the body, and has a range limit. You carried me into the elevator, and I was automatically disconnected... I guess there is an exchange force field around the machine, the brain It can communicate with the machine in the force field, and the consciousness no longer controls the body, but exchanges information with the machine and controls the virtual character loaded into the server.

Because the brain loses self-control, it's like going to sleep, leaving only the subconscious running the body.

Lin Li nodded, the technology is strong to a certain extent, like a myth.

He carried the password silently, made sure he remembered it, and asked, Is this sentence in Sanskrit? What does it mean?

Huang Ji said: Part of Sanskrit, part of alien language. Like Shimo and Kueh, these are not Sanskrit.

I had an adventure, I read a scripture, and the scripture recorded this mantra, which is what Shakyamuni once said. The translation is 'knowledge can be imparted, but wisdom cannot. People can find wisdom, in Wisdom is manifested in life, self-improvement with wisdom, and miracles are created with wisdom, but it is impossible for people to impart wisdom.

There is also this picture to go with it. It is a picture of a person sitting cross-legged, with a tree-like picture behind it. In fact, it is a brief picture of the scene of Shakyamuni's epiphany. I didn't know the spell and the picture before. What is it? I got this Buddha's phalanx today, I tried chanting and visualization, and then I logged in, only then did I know that it was Shakyamuni's account...

There is no doubt that Huang Ji is talking nonsense...

He just found the password and password when he sensed the Buddha's bone.

As Huang Ji said, he also drew the epiphany map of the World Honored One, and asked Lin Li to memorize it by rote. He couldn't go wrong at all. Every ratio was accurate.

Lin Li closed his eyes and began to visualize the picture, while muttering words in his mouth.

After several attempts, he was wrong in his visualization, and there was no movement, as if he was just meditating.

After trying dozens of times in a row, I finally got connected.

Everything is like a dream, and consciousness directly enters another world.

It was dark all around, only a warehouse was erected not far away, and the lights were on in the warehouse.

Let's go, that warehouse was built by me before, and half of it was built, and you pulled it out of the range and dropped it. With a swipe, Huang Ji also came in, right next to Lin Li.

Lin Li saw that Huang Ji's image was the same as in reality, but it was just a phantom. He couldn't help asking, Isn't this Shakyamuni's number? Can we log in at the same time?

Huang Ji said: This account allows many people to log in at the same time. When the same account comes in, different people have different permissions.

Shakyamuni uploaded Nirvana after his death, which is equivalent to giving up the human body and choosing to live forever with consciousness. So he himself is an account, the body of the number Shakyamuni.

The login by his own consciousness is undoubtedly the real authority of this account. We belong to the vassal trumpet under the same account and occupy the data resources of Sakyamuni.

Lin Li asked, How big is this world?

About 600 billion cubic meters. Huang Ji said.

So big? Lin Li had no idea about this number.

Huang Ji said: Actually it's very small. This is just a 'private stand-alone space' of Sakyamuni, which is equivalent to... your Penguin space log.

600 billion cubic meters, equivalent to the volume of 21 to 22 Poyang Lakes. It can only be regarded as a micro world. In an alien civilization, any ordinary user probably has at least one such personal space. This kind of space, for For the former Sakyamuni, it was as many as the sands of the Ganges River.

Lin Li was clear, pondered for a while, imagined it, and suddenly created a sports car in front of him!

Fuck! It's true! It's so real!

Lin Li looked and felt like the real thing when he touched it, but when he got into the sports car, he found that it couldn't start at all.

Huang Ji opened the car directly, only to see that it was empty inside.

He smiled and said, Your sports car doesn't need an engine, you can drive it with just one body?

Lin Li smiled awkwardly and said, I just thought about the appearance, and I'm sure, so it all needs to be designed?

Huang Ji said: This is a small virtual world in reality mode. It does not have fantasy functions, so it is very hardcore.

The database is damaged, and we can only fill it ourselves. I have built the warehouse before, and I have also saved the relevant basic metals and building materials, otherwise you can't even build the car shell...

In short, we have to have enough detail that it's the same as actually building a car.

You don't need to think about the microscopic areas, because there is no quantum mechanics in this server. The basic unit is the atom, you don't need to think about what's inside the atom, it's just a 'pixel', it's just a 'basic block'.

Fortunately, this basic setting is undamaged, with 115 elements and 330 atoms.

The entire sandbox space like this can be understood as an atomic block-level 'Minecraft'.
