Chapter 422 Doing Death and Catwoman

In the classroom of Renmin University, Professor Juan continued his lecture on "imagination". With his rich knowledge of history and archaeology, Professor Juan quoted from other sources and used the past to satirize the present.

"Imagination is the most advanced thinking tool for cognition of the world. Imagination can break through the limitations of human beings, cross the huge gap of time and space, penetrate into unknown areas in a surreal way, and search for traces of truth. How much imagination do you have? , you can see how big the world is. Once you have a powerful and unconstrained imagination, you can see endless new worlds. When you reach this level, you will no longer give a self-righteous definition of truth or principles, let alone Will speak out and point fingers at unknown things..."

After talking eloquently for more than half an hour, Professor Juan concluded, "All the achievements of human civilization are far from the truth. What we need to do now is not to draw conclusions, but to ask questions. A good question can stimulate your imagination and open your mind. Vision, takes you into a new field. And if you only know how to draw conclusions, then at best you are a frog at the bottom of the well.”

After listening to the lecture, many students in the classroom had some experience and took notes silently.

However, there are also some students who are skeptical about Professor Juan's lectures, and Cai Zhikang is one of them.

"Professor Juan, I disagree with you." At this time, Cai Zhikang stood up and said loudly, "Human civilization has a history of thousands of years, and many achievements of civilization have been tested for a long time and proved to be the truth. But , According to what you just said, is it true that thousands of years of human civilization have been wrong? Since ancient times, evil has prevailed over righteousness, and justice can win the hearts of the people, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world. These are truths that have been repeatedly proved by history. Are they also wrong? "

Facing the question, Professor Juan smiled lightly and said: "Student Cai, it seems that your brain has not turned around. You have overlooked many things. For example, you did not realize that all human civilizations are actually based on hypotheses. premise."

"Assumptions?" Cai Zhikang was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Professor Juan asked: "For any proposition to be established, there are conditions, and many value judgments of human civilization must also be established. For example, a kind woman was poisoned and died immediately. To die. If you want to help the woman poisoned, you need to go to Snake Mountain to catch the green snake and use the snake gall to detoxify the woman. So, a doctor went up the mountain to kill a green snake and took out the snake gall to save the woman. The woman survived Come down. Then the question comes, this doctor saved the woman with the green snake, is this considered a good deed?"

"Of course!" Cai Zhikang said solemnly, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. This doctor saved a woman's life, and his merits are immeasurable."

Professor Juan reminded: "However, in order to save the woman, the doctor killed a green snake. How can the account be settled? The woman is a life, and the green snake is also a life. One life is exchanged for another life. Can this be considered a good thing? That green snake didn't provoke anyone, but was killed innocently, do you think it's fair?"

Cai Zhikang disagreed, and retorted: "Green snakes are just low-level animals, and their value is inherently lower than that of humans. What's wrong with exchanging the lives of low-level animals for the lives of high-level animals?"

Professor Juan smiled and asked: "I have two doctorate degrees in history and archaeology. In the past 40 years, I have participated in the research work of 67 archaeological bases in Huaxia Kingdom, published 175 first-level academic papers, surveyed and The total value of the excavated archaeological relics exceeds 790 billion yuan, and I have won more than 59 awards above the national level. No matter in terms of education, qualifications, or influence, I am far beyond you. From this perspective, I am more important than you. High-level animals. You just said that there is nothing wrong with exchanging the lives of low-level animals for those of high-level animals. So according to this theory, can I let you exchange your life for mine? Or, do I have the right to kill about you?"

Hearing this, Cai Zhikang was slightly taken aback.

"Huh?" Professor Juan asked again, "Student Cai, I am a higher-level creature than you. Do you think I have the right to kill you?"

Cai Zhikang's heart tightened, he thought for a while, and said, "Of course not! Although your life is more valuable than mine, we are all human beings, and our values ​​are relatively close. And green snakes are low-level animals. And the value is far lower than that of human beings, so they can be killed, these are two different things."

Professor Juan continued to ask: "Okay, let me change the question. You should know, King of Shadows, that his contribution to China in the past three years may exceed the sum of all the people in China. He is completely above us. The existence above is a higher-level life form than us. The gap between us and the shadow man is probably even greater than the gap between the green snake and humans. So, does the shadow man have the right to kill you?"

"This..." Cai Zhikang sweated slightly on his forehead, and suddenly felt that he seemed to be in trouble.

However, if Cai Zhikang replied that the shadow man has the right to kill himself, wouldn't that be cheating himself?

Thinking of this, Cai Zhikang couldn't help but feel a little tangled, not knowing how to answer.

Then the classroom became quiet, and all the students were thinking about the same question: Since human beings have the right to kill snakes, does the shadow man have the right to kill Cai Zhikang?
"Okay, classmate Cai, sit down, I won't make things difficult for you."

Professor Hu An looked down at the students in the class, and said, "The question that Cai Zhikang raised just now is a typical human-centered value. Most people think that killing a green snake to save a woman, This approach is correct. The reason why this value judgment holds true is that human beings have acquiesced to a premise—human beings are the most important. As long as it is beneficial to human beings, it is right, and it is right to kill snakes. It is right to kill animals, and it is right to kill plants. Conversely, as long as it is harmful to human beings, it is wrong. This is a premise of human civilization, and many of our value judgments are based on this premise. Laws, morals, Ethics, culture, etc., have not escaped this category.”

"However, this premise itself is a false proposition, and you cannot prove that it is correct. Why is human beings the most important? There is no definite evidence for this, it is just the default assumption of human beings."

"If this assumption changes, the entire human value system will collapse. It will collapse instantly like a building whose foundation has been removed. At that time, you will find that all the previous value judgments are simply ridiculous."

"Not only value judgments, but almost all achievements of human civilization are similar. Whether it is science and technology, social ethics, or literature and art, they are all duckweeds. They have not yet found their roots and may be subverted and disrupted at any time drown."

"Your worldview, values, and outlook on life are all based on these duckweed-like premises. You firmly believe that you are right, just because you firmly believe that these duckweeds are right. This is a well-disguised self-deception. A person with truly great wisdom must know to detach from it and examine our world from a broader perspective."

After a pause, Professor Juan solemnly reminded, "All the students here are very lucky, because you have the opportunity to enter Paradise Story City, which is a very wonderful place, there are many surreal things, some Things are even beyond our imagination. There is a magnificent palace, the Forbidden City, a giant Bird’s Nest stadium, the beauty here is a kind of energy wave, and the people here have superpowers... Everything in Paradise Story City Just like a sci-fi movie, it is an eye-opener. You can study here, you should go around more, gain more knowledge, and stimulate your imagination to try to understand everything here. For example, the Temple of Heaven Park, the future of Peking University The famous lake, the lotus pond in Tsinghua University, the Quanjude Roast Duck in Wangfujing Street, and the Burj Khalifa and 101 Building that just appeared recently, etc., these things may have hidden secrets..."

Professor Juan began to introduce some special attractions and snacks of Paradise Story City to the students based on his own experience.

"bell--"

Half an hour later, the get out of class bell rang and the lecture ended.

After Professor Juan left the classroom, some students got together to discuss.

"Cai Zhikang, what do you think of Professor Juan's lecture today?" Zhou Yi frowned and said, "I think what he said seems to make sense. This Paradise Story City may be different from what we imagined. Maybe we will watch it here Everything that arrives is real."

Cai Zhikang showed seriousness on his face: "Zhou Yi, your will is too weak, and you wavered so quickly? Professor Juan was obviously sent by Bill Gates to brainwash us. The theories he instilled are just to hope that we can give up resistance. "

Zhou Yidao: "However, if we think about our experience here carefully, it seems that Professor Juan doesn't seem to be lying. For example, Yan-Zhibo, it may really be a kind of energy, otherwise why are the female book guards here so high in martial arts? ? It's because of their good looks, they have practiced the martial arts in the "Beauty Book of Beauty"..."

"How can you believe such nonsense?" Cai Zhikang said firmly, "Anyone with a little scientific knowledge will know that this is nonsense. Does beauty have half a dime relationship with energy? The truth is always in the hands of the few." In the hands of others, we must not shrink back. In short, the plan for tonight remains unchanged."

Zhou Yidao: "Do you want to continue the escape tonight?"

"Of course." Cai Zhikang said, "Although we have failed more than a dozen times, we are likely to succeed tonight. Today Paradise Story City has 10000 new college students settled in, and the female book police team is busy maintaining order in the high-rise area , the guards in the university area have been relaxed, this is a good opportunity to escape. Okay, everyone go back and prepare, and escape from Paradise Story City tonight!"

……

It's past nine o'clock in the evening.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation in the Forbidden City, Liu Xing was sitting in front of the computer, reading a documentary novel about the high-rise district of Paradise Story City.

Today, the high-rise area officially has personnel settled in, and the documentary novel "Paradise Story City 3--High-rise Area" has begun to be written. Dozens of beautiful-female writers such as Purple Grape, Pineapple, and Banana are responsible for intelligence information.

Swish!
With soft footsteps approaching, Ai Yufei suddenly walked in and reported: "Mr. Bill, more than 50 college students including Cai Zhikang and Zhou Yi are planning to escape from the university area tonight. This is their 15th attempt to escape. Shall I teach them a lesson tonight?"

Liu Xing put down the documents in his hand, waved his hand and said, "No, you don't need to guard the university area tonight, just let them go."

"Let them go?" Ai Yufei was startled, and asked strangely, "Are you going to let Cai Zhikang and the others escape from Paradise Story City?"

"Yes." Liu Xing said, "If you don't die, you won't die. I used the pre-reading technique to read "Paradise Story City 2-University District" today, and found that Cai Zhikang and others are the characters who are trying to die. The pre-reading technique shows that Cai Zhikang and others After people leave Paradise Story City, they will be infected with the Corpse Heart Virus."

Ai Yufei was startled: "What a coincidence?" What did he think of, "If Cai Zhikang and others are infected with the Corpse Heart Virus, then as long as we follow them, wouldn't we be able to discover the source of the Corpse Heart Virus and even find the murderer of the Corpse Heart Virus?" ?”

Liu Xing nodded: "That's right. So let Cai Zhikang and others escape tonight, and let's follow the vine and hope to gain something."

Ai Yufei understood the situation and asked, "Mr. Bill, then I will immediately send someone to follow Cai Zhikang secretly..."

"No need." Liu Xing said, "I have to handle this matter myself, you just need to maintain the order in the high-rise area."

……

four hours later.

At midnight, in the [-]-meter-high sky of Paradise Story City, Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan sat on the heavenly book, overlooking the situation under their feet.

Wang Lanlan secretly activated the book "Show Hidden Potential", and the two of them were in a hidden state, and ordinary people could not see them at all.

"Dad, Cai Zhikang has appeared!"

Wang Lanlan reminded me that in a bush in the west of the university area of ​​Paradise Story City, more than 50 college students including Cai Zhikang and Zhou Yi were trotting furtively, preparing to leave Story City secretly.

Running to the westernmost wall of the university area, Cai Zhikang and others climbed over the wall one by one and successfully escaped from the university area.

"Finally escaped! Run quickly!"

Afterwards, Cai Zhikang and other 50 college students ran all the way and fled westward. After running for several hundred meters, they intercepted several taxis and left at full speed.

The taxi headed west at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour. After leaving Donglou City, it entered a barren mountain forest with lush trees called Yeling.

In the depths of Yeling mountain forest, the taxi stopped, and more than 50 college students including Cai Zhikang got off at the same time.

"It should be safe here."

Cai Zhikang looked around and said, "There should be fruit trees nearby. Let's look around and find something to eat first."

Everyone nodded one after another, then separated and scattered around.

"what!"

A few minutes later, a scream suddenly came from the east of Yeling.

"what's the situation?"

"It seems that something happened to Zhou Yi!"

Hearing Zhou Yi's screams, Cai Zhikang and others' faces changed drastically in fright. Without saying a word, they immediately fled westward, saving their lives first.

When Cai Zhikang and other college students escaped, Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan who were in the sky all saw it.

In the woods to the east of Yeling, lay a dead body with a pale complexion. It was Zhou Yi, a college student who had just died.

"Dad, Zhou Yi seems to be infected with the Corpse Heart Virus!" Wang Lanlan looked at the woods below, "Does this mean that the Corpse Heart Virus is in the wild mountain?"

Liu Xing concentrated his attention and paid close attention to the situation in Yeling forest.If we can find the source of the Corpse Heart Virus, maybe we can find some clues about Hell Story City.

Whoosh!
Just as he was thinking, at this moment, a white figure flickered in the woods of Yeling. The white figure was extremely fast, and with a swipe, he swept across a distance of tens of meters. Right from time to time, up and down from time to time, extremely agile.

"Who is the white figure?"

"Go down and see!"

As soon as the heavenly book sank, it quickly fell into the woods. Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan turned into a stream of light and caught up with the white figure in front.

The distance is getting closer.

When they came to a place about 50 meters behind the white figure, Liu Xing and Wang Lanlan finally saw the appearance of the white figure clearly.

When seeing the other party's appearance, Wang Lanlan was stunned instantly.

The white figure is a woman, but the woman's body is covered with white fur. What's even more strange is that there is a white tail behind the woman, which is very strange.

"What is this...?" Wang Lanlan raised her eyebrows, how could human beings have long tails?

As soon as she finished speaking, the white figure in front seemed to sense someone behind her. She suddenly turned her head and saw a pair of ears growing on her head, a pair of eyes shining with white light, and a white beard around her mouth. It looks like a cat's face...

"Meow--"

Seeing someone chasing after her, the woman suddenly let out a sharp cat meow. She seemed to be frightened, so she sped up suddenly, jumped with both feet, and with a whoosh, she jumped into a patch of grass.

Seeing this scene, Wang Lanlan thought she was delusional. The white figure was actually a... catwoman?
