Design Castle 1 Nothing is perfect, not even perfection. ——Response to Luo Xiute's mysterious paradox Early the next morning, as soon as we got up, we heard the villagers clamoring for something to build.After asking in the past, I found out that it was the village chief Luo Xiute who called everyone to stand in front of the village. Building a castle in front of it can protect the village on the one hand, and provide the villagers with a place to go in the future.The villagers did what they said, and the whole morning's work Husband has already designed the appearance of the castle and started to collect various resources.

I ran to have a look, and the castle on the blueprint was the place where Mai Li brought me last time, but there seemed to be something missing, so I couldn't tell at the moment. "young As expected, the crew on the "Master" participated in the labor of building the castle just as Tasso said. When the village chief Luo Xiute saw the two of us, he asked us: "When are you going to leave, if you want to ask the villagers, it will be a waste of time. " We hurriedly said: "We know it's useless to ask, but we still want to stay here for a few days, and hope we can help you a little bit."

"That's up to you, but I have some doubts that you are not like the original aborigines. Where do you come from?" "Well, we're from Heath, not far from here." "Heath City? But that place is already a modern city, how can there be people dressed like you?" "Oh, we came here to explore dressed as primitive people." "Then how many times have you been here?" "us……" Jiaweile suddenly interjected: "Since you don't have to answer our questions, of course we don't have to answer you either." Village Chief Luo Xiute smiled, "It's okay, I'm just asking casually, I won't drive you away if you want to stay."

Then we naturally inquired everywhere, but the villagers said that they have settled here for a long time, and their ancestors probably migrated from other places, but Where it came from, they couldn't tell.But Gavel and I discovered that this village appeared overnight, and we ended up Only one conclusion can be drawn, all the secrets are only known to the village chief Luo Xiute. Gavel had planned to go to Tasso and the others, but they didn't know what was going on.So we decided to go to the village chief Luo Xiute, see See if you can hear something. When we walked into the village chief's hut, he was discussing with several villagers, Captain Levy and two crew members to modify the blueprint of the castle.

The idea is strange and unfeasible. He wants to build the entire castle on a tall platform, just like it is built in the air. This idea has too much fantasy, I'm afraid it's just talk.The head of Luo Xiute heard that everyone disagreed, as if he suddenly remembered something, he said: "Yes, we are still Not capable enough to do it. "Up to now, he still hasn't admitted that his idea is impossible to realize. I asked him: "Why must it be built so high? Could it be that it can't be done on flat ground?" "It's not impossible, it's just that I don't want people from the outside to come to the village to disturb our life. In fact, I just want to be more stable."

Everyone suggested a lot of ideas, but they were all rejected by the stubborn village head. He also told everyone not to doubt their strength, as long as he accepted the suggestion , they will strive to achieve it.When leaving Roshett's place, Gavel couldn't help asking where is Captain Levi Tasso?Captain Levi asked him strangely: " Do you know Tasso? The village head of Luo Xiute also looked at Jiaweile strangely. I said quickly: "We talked to him a few words today, and he said that he has something to ask. Asked us, then walked away, we don't know what's up with him?I also want to trouble Captain Levi to tell Tasso. "

Captain Levi nodded and said, "I will definitely tell him." When we returned to the open space in front of the village, we found many large machines parked there, but where did these machines come from? I haven't seen it yesterday, and although the appearance of the machine is very similar to what I have seen before, it is indeed never seen before.Listen to the "Young Ones" who participated in labor together "The crew on board said that the villagers had a lot of machine parts, and they assembled them in a short time after they were brought from various houses. It seems that what Luo Xiute said was right, they did have

The ability to build any castle. At night, I couldn't sleep for a while, so I went outside for a stroll, and saw a row of houses at the back of the village whose lights were still on, so I called Gavel to plan a visit. Get up and have a look. Design Castle 2 Design Castle 2 The two of us quietly walked to the side of the house, and took a look... There is nothing strange about it, I saw more than a dozen young people sitting in the room, all in a daze, exchanging a few words with each other from time to time, it seems that they are discussing No matter what the problem, we both looked at it for a while and thought it was meaningless, so we went back.

After we went back, we discussed for a while, and felt that the strangest place in this village is always related to "thinking", and we came to this place for the first time One of the things I encountered was to answer Luo Xiute's questions, and when I came with Mai Li last time, I also encountered villagers who kept thinking about problems. Could this be the reason? Is it their secret?But it's not a big deal to love to think about problems. Why does the village head of Luo Xiute always avoid talking about it? Another day passed, and neither of us found anything.Gavel woke me up at dawn, and he planned to go to the village chief today.because only him

Only then did I know everything here. The village chief Luo Xiute was no longer surprised when he saw us, "What's the matter?" Gavel said: "Nothing, I just want to continue to participate in the design of the castle." "Okay, do you have any good ideas?" We reopened the drawings we designed before, and I looked at them, and suddenly realized that when I saw the drawings for the first time, it felt different from what Mai Li and I saw. Too much the same, because the castle is missing a part. So I said, "Didn't the village chief want to build the castle on a high platform?"

"Didn't you all think it was impossible yesterday? What's more, we really don't have the ability now. Have you figured out a way to do it again?" "According to what you said, there is no way, but I thought of a stopgap measure." "Then tell me." Gavel also looked at me, he only knew that I had been here, but at that time I only told him about what happened in the village, and did not describe the castle to him in detail So he didn't know what the castle I saw looked like. "Village Chief, can you tell me first whether your purpose is to make the castle look more mysterious, make people feel more distant, or have other meanings?" Luo Xiute thought for a while, "Actually, there was no specific meaning at the beginning. It may be that what you said made people feel more distant, but I didn't want to be too mysterious. , after all, we still have to contact the outside world. " "Do you want to contact the outside world? Haven't you guys been in contact with the outside world before?" "Of course I have been in contact. It's just that after the castle is built, the contact will be reduced, but I don't want to be isolated from the world." I nodded and said, "Well, my design just fits what you mean." "yes!" "The current location of this village is on a flat land on a hillside, and this hillside is just in front of the village. We can just use this hillside .In other words, in fact, the current or future castle of the village is already on a high platform, and three sides of it are already naturally equipped. " Gavel said happily: "Ah, that's right, just build another platform on the hillside ahead?" I also excitedly continued: "That's right, and the entire hillside can be built into stairs, which not only increases the sense of distance from the outside world, but also preserves the sense of distance." A means of communication with the outside world.Village head, what do you think? " Luo Xiute nodded while listening, and said at this time: "This idea is good, but it is not perfect yet." Jiawei Le suddenly said: "Nothing is perfect, even perfection." I was taken aback for a moment, the tone seemed familiar! Luo Xiute also froze for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Yes, you two are really nice." I don't know what he meant? "We can take a look first, but why are you so familiar with this place?" "Didn't we tell you? We live in Heath City, not far from here. It's just a pity that we didn't notice this village before." Luo Xiute didn't feel uneasy at all, "Actually, I also feel a little pity, otherwise I could have known you earlier. Let's go, both of you." take a guess take a guess "Is a man with thick hair bald?" "of course not." "What about pulling out a hair now?" "Of course not." "Two, three, four, five..." - Bald Paradox The village chief Luo Xiute accepted my suggestion.So the villagers and the crew started to get busy. I didn't expect that Gavel and I could also participate in the construction of this castle. building.Gavel reminded me that night that we should leave soon. I understood what he meant. If people in the village found us disappearing inexplicably may cause other troubles. We told the village chief Luo Xiute about this decision, and he said: "Okay, you are welcome to come again." He didn't mean to hold back at all. We had no choice but to set off in the direction of Heath City, hoping that Ai Wan could send us here again as soon as possible.Remember there is a small place not far from here Town, the last time Mai Li and I traded horses in the town, we still haven't seen the town in the afternoon, and we don't know how long we have to go. The scenery gradually became a little familiar, and I should have reached the location near the small town. At this moment, I suddenly thought, maybe the town hasn't appeared yet! Because the village has just appeared according to my idea, no one knows about it yet, so naturally this town will not be used as a resting place. Thinking of this, I suddenly had an idea, and I quickly called Jiaweile to stop. "Did you find something very strange about this village?" "Everywhere in this village feels a little strange, otherwise we wouldn't have come here. You can just talk about it, and there are no detours." "Where does the electricity in this village come from?" "Electricity? They have machines, power plants, and various resources here are abundant. What do you doubt?" "But why did they leave the machines all open?" "Put it away when it's useless, I think it's quite interesting." "According to what you say, it's nothing. If this village has existed for a long time, these are nothing. But I always feel that they are Appeared overnight, then these things came a little weird. " Gavel said: "You are right, I have some doubts, but I really can't believe that this village will appear overnight, and there are Many things cannot be produced in a day or two. " We walked while talking, but the night had fallen, and there was no shadow of Heath City.Gavel asked me if I remembered the wrong direction, I said no, but At that time, we drove for a while. Although we didn't drive fast, it would take two days if we walked.At this time, I found out that we haven't posted in the village these days. horses of any color (this is to avoid the misunderstanding of "white horses are not horses"), if the village has existed for a long time, why is there no travel What about tools?Even if it is very simple. When will this doubt and confusion be resolved? We had to find another shelter from the wind, let’s stay overnight, light a bonfire, eat some dry food brought from the village, and listen to nature quietly. ll."Do you think this place is different from Northtown?" I asked Gaveler. "The wind in North is softer, and the air here is cleaner." I was a little puzzled, "Can you really feel it?" He lay on the ground, looking at the night sky, "As long as you want, you can feel it too, try it." I just lay down like this, but the wind didn't seem to be comfortable, and even made me feel a little cold, "Gavelle, do you feel a little cold?" "Isn't the fire very hot? Come closer." I sat up, looked ahead, and saw two small green lights flashing in front of us, "Who's there?" Nothing happened. "Could it be a beast?" My heart was beating wildly in an instant. "Get up, there are beasts!" Jiawei Le got up in a hurry, at this time the two little green lights seemed to be frightened, and they quickly stepped back a few steps, and made a low "whooping" sound.I Both of them were a little dumbfounded, how could they forget about this?I always thought I was in a city, where I couldn’t meet any animals except people place too!Now how to do?We don't even have anything to use as a weapon. Gavel quickly calmed down, and he told me not to be nervous, but to calm down first before I could think of a solution.The two sides confronted each other like this, and gradually I became like an old monk in meditation, I am neither afraid of it nor want to hurt it, and it seems to have no malicious intentions, but we still dare not close our eyes and rest, fortunately The good times are still getting closer to dawn.Slowly my eyes could not be opened, and I fell asleep in a daze. When I was woken up by Gavel, we appeared in front of the gate of a castle again, of course it was Ai Wan's doing.We are back again, the castle has built.No one stopped us when we walked into the castle. I wonder if the rules are the same as when Mai Li and I came decades later. After entering the city, we didn’t see all kinds of shops, so we walked straight towards the village. As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, we saw a small house on the side of the road. People beckon us over.He said that he had to answer a question before entering the village, and it seemed that the rules for answering questions had been initially formed. "Okay then. What's the problem?" The man asked, "Is a man with thick hair bald?" We looked at each other, "Of course not." "What about pulling out a hair now?" "No." "Two, three, four, five." "no." "If this continues, this person's hair will continue to decrease, and one day he will become bald. What is the reason?" I said: "When there is no hair, you will naturally be bald. What is the reason?" The man said calmly: "You don't understand what I mean. If a person is not bald if he loses ninety-nine hairs, then he is still bald if he loses one hundred hairs." Woolen cloth? " "Not yet." "If nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine roots are lost, what about ten thousand?" "Probably... maybe not." "Then when will it be?" Gaveler said: "I probably understand, that is to say, we can't say that a person will become bald every time a hair is lost. We can't say that we have become bald if we lose one hair, but as the hair continues to decrease, we will eventually become bald, but if the previous hair is still there. If you are bald, why do you end up with bald people?If understood in this way, it can be said that there is no baldness at all, not even a single hair. " "You understand. Well, you two can enter the village." "We just figured out what the question means, and we can go in without answering it?" "Yes, you can think about it as you go, we just ask questions and let you understand the meaning of the questions. As for whether you think about it or not, it's up to you Let's do it. " Weigu when I was young 1 Weigu when I was young 1 I sit on a table, and a table is a noun, so I sit on a noun. - reasoning paradox Gavel and I walked into Hyde Village again, and we walked towards the residence of the head of Luoxiet Village. When we were about to reach the hut, a young man walked up to him. He saw We seemed to be looking for someone, so he asked us, "Are you two looking for someone?" "Yes, is the village chief at home?" "Village chief? Are you talking about the village chief Luo Xiute?" Are there other village chiefs? "Of course, we are here to find Village Chief Luo Xiute." The young man glanced at us, "What can you do with him?" Gavel said impatiently, "Let's go directly to him." "He's not at home, you go to my house first and wait. He may come back very late." We had no choice but to follow the young man to his house first. On the way, Gavel asked the young man, "What's your name, please? We didn't seem to see you when we came here last time." over you. " "Really? Have you been here before? My name is Weigu, Wei of the Breeze, Gu of the Valley." I was surprised and said: "You are Weigu!" "Yes, do you know me?" Wei Gu seemed a little surprised. "Ah, we heard from the village chief last time we came here." We talked and walked into a small yard.Wei Gu asked again: "When did you come last time, I don't know why." We also don't know how much time has passed since the last time.Jiawei Le quickly said: "The last time I came here, I heard from the village chief that you were only five or six years old. What about the children! " "Oh, it's been more than twenty years since I said that." Gavel and I were both taken aback, it has been more than twenty years. Weigu asked again: "What's the matter with you coming to Luo Xiute this time? The villagers here don't usually call him the village chief, so I didn't realize it just now. , let the two worry too much. " "Oh... Actually, it's nothing. I haven't been here for a long time. I want to see the village chief." When we entered the house, we chatted.Weigu suddenly asked us: "Is the design of the front castle your suggestion?" "It was his suggestion," Gavel said. Weigu looked at me and said, "That's right, who of you ever said, 'Nothing is perfect, not even perfection'?" I read Look at Gavel. Gavel said: "It is the village chief who is not satisfied with the castle's suggestion and feels that he has not achieved his ideal appearance. That's what I said. How do you know of?Did the village chief tell you? " Weigu said: "Yes, when I was young, the village chief often took me by his side, asked me some questions or said some plausible things, and then let me I think about the truth.He said this sentence one day, and told me that it was said when two people from outside came to the village.so probably I told you about the two of you.I didn't think about it until just now, so I'm asking you guys, and sure enough it is. " We didn't expect the village chief Luo Xiute to still remember us. Hearing Weigu say that the village chief mentioned us many times, he always felt a little regretful every time he said it. "Sorry? Why?" "I didn't know at first, but then I thought he meant to keep the two in the village, but I don't know why he didn't tell the two of them. illustrate. " There was a moment of silence between us. Wei Gu continued: "The village chief also told me that if the two of you really come back in the future, I must tell you..." Before he could finish speaking, Jia Wheeler and I both hurriedly asked, "Tell us what?" Weigu froze for a moment, "You two don't need to be nervous, in fact, I just want to explain the meaning of the sentence just now." I didn't expect the village chief Luo Xiute to be so serious , I still remember to explain a sentence many years ago. In fact, Jiawei Le did not deliberately say this sentence to test the meaning of the village chief. Gavel smiled and said: "I don't understand what else is implied in this sentence. I just said it in passing. Then you can talk about it now. " "Since you can meet the village head this time, let him speak for himself." "Does the village chief think he won't see us?" I asked a little strangely. "The village head meant that at the time, otherwise he wouldn't have confessed to me." Micro Valley 2 when I was young Micro Valley 2 when I was young For us, the last incident happened just a few hours ago, but for the village chief it has been more than twenty years. Jiawei Le said: "You should say it. We are all waiting to hear. We will ask the village chief for other questions when he comes." "Okay then. The village chief said that this sentence is actually a coincidence. Since the premise says 'nothing is perfect', that is to say, if the premise is Correct, then there will be no perfect things, the 'perfect' mentioned here refers to 'perfect things', and the 'perfect' in the second half of the sentence does not mean It is the thing, but the word 'perfect', and if everything is not perfect, the word 'perfect' is certainly not perfect; and if indeed There are perfect things, that is to say, the first half of the sentence is wrong, so the second half of the sentence can say whatever you want. " Gavel said sincerely: "I originally said something casually, but I didn't expect there to be so much room for explanation!" Weigu added: "Actually, I think it can be further analyzed. The adjective 'perfect' is used in the first half of the sentence, while the noun 'perfect' is used in the second half of the sentence. Beauty', obviously the scope and object of their expression are inconsistent. 'Perfect' is just a concept, and the first half sentence is a description of the word, that is, ' There is no perfect thing', so the word 'perfect' is originally used to describe things that are not 'perfect'. " Although I can't understand what Weigu is saying, I still feel a little joy in my heart, because Jiawei Le and I should learn from Tasso's I learned from experience that Weigu will be another person besides the village chief Luo Xiute who may explain the village's secrets, and Weigu finally handed over this issue to Qian Philosophy.Maybe we can see some traces of the future from the current Weigu. In the evening, we finally met the village chief Luo Xiute. It turned out that he had gone to the Presbyterian Church.He was very happy to see us, and asked if we were caught at the entrance of the village when we came. What's the question.After listening to us, he said that this kind of problem was actually mentioned when Captain Levi and the others left more than 20 years ago.Chia Weller and I suddenly remembered the "wheat pile", and indeed they were essentially the same.The head of Luo Xiute looked at Weigu and said: "At that time, he thought of solving the problem. Method.Weigu, tell me what you think now. "Wei Gu's explanation is basically the same as Qian Sizhe's explanation we heard from Tasso. Jiaweile said again: "Unexpectedly, the village head still remembered a sentence I said casually last time, and gave an explanation from the perspective of language, and this Mr. Weigu It's amazing that life can go one step further. " "We use language to communicate or to convey information every day, but there are still many problems in language. The resulting paradox The sentences are countless. " I said, "But we can still communicate effectively." "Yes, but not every communication is effective, because many times, what the speaker wants to express is not consistent with the understanding of the listener, But everyone agrees, but this recognition is determined according to their own understanding. " "I still don't understand." "Very well, then I'll take your 'don't understand' as an example." "My 'don't understand'?" "Can you understand what I just said? I mean every word, every sentence." "I can understand." "You understand, but you say you don't understand. So we communicate, but it doesn't work. Everything we say until now is communication, but You don't necessarily understand what I mean, and maybe I don't fully understand what you mean by 'don't understand'. " At this time Weigu took over and said: "Then is there no effective communication? Because neither party can be sure whether the understanding of the other party is consistent with the understanding of the other party. Fang's original intention. " "This is actually a very complicated and abstract problem, and it cannot be solved by just talking about it. I will leave it to you to think about it later. I am now There is another question about language, you may wish to think about it. " His question, which eluded me for a moment, was: I sit on a table, and a table is a noun, so I sit on a noun. How can I sit on nouns?Unless that table is called "noun". Farewell Rosiet Faree Rosiet Everyone is mortal, but... — Paradox of life Gavel and I wanted to know more about the past of the village from Luo Xiute, but he never said a word, but he was very interested in the village. We talked a lot about the present and the future. "After you left, Captain Levy and the others also left for about four months, but I still thank you for your advice and their help." Gavel and I were both wondering why some of what Roxiet said was not exactly the same as what Tasso later recalled. Tasso said that many crew members stayed in the The village is gone, but Luo Xiute said that the crew members have all left. Is there any ulterior secret in this?But why did those crew members behave like Tasso said Don't you know what happened to you before?Or is there something wrong with memory? Luo Xiute asked why we didn't seem to have changed from the last time we came, and we could only falter and interrupt, unable to explain why. I asked casually, "Why did the village think of asking questions?" Wei Gu said: "Because the villagers in our Haide Village were trained to think about various problems from an early age, the elders later suggested that people who came to the village should be given some advice. Some issues can also be exchanged with each other, or hope that we can learn from each other. " Jiawei Le asked Luo Xiute: "We didn't seem to have heard of the Presbyterian Church last time?" "There are elders, but the elders' council was not established, and it was established after everyone suggested it." I'm still more interested in the castle, "Although the castle in front has been built, it's no different from not having it. People who come here can come in and out at will." ?This is not the original idea! " Luo Xiute said: "In the past, everyone tried to limit the number of people coming, but our place is not a tourist place, and if we restrict it, the number of people coming will be even less. Afterwards, everyone decided not to limit it.After all, we don't want to be isolated from the world. " "I have a way. Maybe it can attract people and limit the number of people." Both Luo Xiute and Wei Gu felt a little curious, "Then tell me." I said: "Since Hyde Village is characterized by thinking about problems, let's design a 'question castle'." "Problem castle? What does that mean?" "In the previous castle, we can organize some villagers and let them run various shops, but they don't charge money, but answer questions." "In exchange for answering questions for various items?" "Yes, the resources here are very rich, and there are some plants and food that are not found elsewhere. These can be exchanged for various questions or questions. answer to the question.That is to say, the question or answer is used as currency.In this way, the curiosity of the outside world about this place can be increased, and the number of people who come in that way will naturally be higher than it is now. too much. " "But it's not our purpose to have more people coming, it may affect the normal life in the village instead." "That's right, but we can restrict people from entering the castle. Isn't this not far from Heath City? The village can send some passes to Heath City regularly, They will distribute it to people who travel to Heath City or local people, so that they can limit the number of people who come here! " Luo Xiute lowered his head and thought for a while, "This method is good, we can get more questions and thoughts. As for how to issue the pass, I still need to Discuss with the elders and the villagers again. " Jiawei asked at this time: "What do you mean when you said that you can get more questions and thoughts? You can get more questions, but how can you get more thoughts?" How can it be obtained? " Luo Xiute froze for a moment, "Yeah, how can thinking be obtained? You see, I, a person who likes to find fault with other people's words every day, has also been caught by others. When picking the wrong one. " This time we stayed for another five days, and apart from meeting Weigu and talking with Luo Xiute a few times, we had nothing to gain.But this time I The strangest and most puzzling things have happened to me. Because Mai Li and I have been here last time, and experienced the long stairs of the castle, the question in the castle can be replaced by the way of answering the question, and the issue of permits.But now it seems that these were my ideas, and isn't this a most elusive paradox? As Ai Wan adjusted the time, we came to Hyde Village twenty years later the next day. Fortunately, I found that I was inside the castle, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get in without a pass!Where did Gavel go?I looked down, bad, I sent Now I have changed a person.who am i now I hurriedly found a store, borrowed a pen and drew on the watch we had agreed upon in advance, wondering if I could meet Gavel?the shop owner said : "Mr. Fisher, why don't you answer the question for a real watch?" I'm Mr. Fischer, and I've been to this store, so who would Gavel be? "I drew for fun." "Haha, what do you think this is?" I turned my head and saw a watch was drawn on the owner's left hand, "What? Are you Gavel?" "Who else!" I didn't expect to find him so easily, it was meaningless at all. This time we decided not to go directly to Luo Xiute and Weigu, but to inquire about the news quietly. When we got to Luo Xiute's house, we realized that the place had changed.We were just about to leave when a person came out of the house, "what's the matter with you? Hey , isn't this Qiaopu! " "Ah!" It turned out to be Wei Gu, I almost forgot that we were not what we used to be, and wanted to ask him why he didn't know us anymore. Gavel quickly said, "Oh, I'm taking this Mr. Fisher around the village." "Please come in and talk." We are very careful because we are afraid of saying the wrong thing. Because I came from outside, I pretended I didn’t know anything and inquired about it, and finally I said: “I heard that the head of Luoxiet Village here is very knowledgeable. , so I really want to visit him this time. " Weigu looked at Gaveler, "Didn't you tell this Mr. Fisher?" "Mr. Fisher didn't ask me." "Oh, Luo Xiute has passed away for many years." Wei Gu's sadness can be seen. "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought I'd see him again." "It sounds like you've seen him before." "No, I haven't seen it, but I've heard it mentioned before. This time when I'm in Heath City, I thought of taking a look." Wei Gu asked casually, "Really, your friend has also been here." I was taken aback, this is an opportunity, "Yes, my two friends said that they are destined to be with the village head of Luo Xiute, and they have met several times, but they haven't been here for a long time , so they don't know what happened afterwards. " Weigu asked: "Is there a Jiaweile among your two friends?" "It's them, you know them too? Then you can't be Mr. Weigu?" "I am Weigu." It turned out that not a few years after we left last time, Luo Xiute passed away, and at the end of his life, Weigu was told to take charge of the affairs of the village.And I hope that if I can see Jiawei in the future Le and I passed on a sentence to us, "Everyone is mortal, but this does not mean that no one will live someday in the future." "What does it mean?" Wei Gu said: "Before leaving, Luo Xiute said that your friends did have a relationship with this village, and he hoped that they could continue their exploration. He said that maybe one day God they really know all they want to know. " Does Luo Xiute know what we have been looking for?What is the meaning of the above words? several possibilities several possibilities "Freedom" does not make you free. ——The Paradox of Freedom Weigu hoped that I could pass on these words to both of us, and hoped that we would come back again, and not just twenty years apart.But Gavel and I I knew in my heart that it must be another 20 years since I left this time, who let Ai Wan's control be too precise! "Jop" and "Fisher" got nothing this time, so they could only go away. After living in the castle for a few days, another twenty years finally passed.It seems still Originally, it would be better to see Weigu in person, but we can't help ourselves if it's our own! So this time we decided to put on makeup no matter what, and then told Weigu that we were those two people, anyway, it has been a while since we saw Weigu last time Forty years. Do we pretend not to know how we look like? We went directly to Weigu, but everyone in the village said they hadn't seen him early this morning.Strange, there is only such a big place, where can I go? ? Then Gavel asked me, "Could they come?" "Who?" "Tasso and Qian Sizhe." "seaside." When we were about to reach the beach, we slowed down our pace, and suddenly there was a sound coming from the front. "In addition to the above, Luo Xiute also asked me to remember to tell the other two people, but I haven't seen them for forty years." "Can I ask what the village head Luo Xiute wants you to pass on?" "He said: Everyone will die, but it doesn't mean that someday no one will live." "What does it mean?" "Actually, the meaning can be understood, but I don't know why it must be conveyed to those two people." We hid quickly, and after they left, we had a general discussion, and we came up with several possible explanations for the village's secrets. One possibility is that Hyde Village has existed for a long time, just like all human societies, as Luoxiet said, but they chose a different way of life; the second possibility is that the people here have all moved from another place for some reason, but are unwilling to talk about the past , so we made up the origin of a village, and everyone abided by this agreement; there is also a possibility that, on the night Gavel and I came, this The village fell from the sky, and with a magical power, the whole village was built overnight, and all the energy has a strange source. Of course, there are still many unreasonable explanations for these kinds of possibilities, but we really can't think of other explanations for a while. In the end we decided to talk to Weigu again. Weigu didn't know us anymore, and when we explained clearly, Weigu seemed very happy, "I don't know if the Mr. Fisher who came here twenty years ago told us Tell you? " "Yes, but we didn't expect to come back after forty years." 微谷笑笑说:“我是已经变得有些老了,可是你们两位倒是不嫌老,就像洛修特一样。”他这么一说我们才 想起来,我们每次见到洛修特时,他也是没什么大的变化,因为在我们的意识里每次间隔只是一小会儿的事,所 以也没注意到洛修特的变化,难道他也注意到我们了,所以在临走时才会说那样一句话,还说也许我们能找到自 己想要知道的。 我终于忍不住向微谷解释了我们的来历,最后我说:“我们真的很怀疑这个村子到底是不是真的存在。” 微谷愣了好一会儿,“你们说的也许是真的,可是我觉得这比我对这个村子的怀疑更不可信。” 嘉维勒也说:“的确很令人惊讶,但是未来的科技确实能办到。” 微谷说:“那么……我想知道你们到这来的经历本身是不是历史?” 我说:“也许是其中的一部分,因为前面的城堡我曾见过,噢,不是曾经,而是以后会见到。” 微谷想了很久,终于摇了摇头,“我可以想象这种情况的发生,但是却不能相信。” 嘉维勒和我一时也不知道该说什么好了,因为我们也被这种奇怪的循环迷惑了。 还是微谷先问我们:“洛修特说你们想知道这个村子的事,但是我不知道你们到底想知道关于这个村子的什 么事?如果可以,我会尽量告诉你们的。 " “其实……也没什么,只是我们有些怀疑这个村子的来历。” “怀疑这个村子的来历,这是什么意思?” “那你能先介绍一下村子的来历吗?” “你们不是早都知道了吗?海德村已经存在了几百年了,世世代代就是这样生活,田间劳作和一些必要的工 厂,大家除了在生活方式上与其他地方略有不同,也就没什么奇特的地方了。 " “但是六十年前我俩来到这个地方的时候,这里还是一片丛林,除了野兽就没有其他的大型生物了,而就在 当天晚上我们遇到了洛修特村长,第二天就看见了这个村子,我们怀疑村子是一夜之间出现的,可是这要什么力 量才能办到呢? " 微谷又静默了一会儿,“我一直在想一个问题,'我们何以是现在这个样子的生活,而不是其他的样子', 但是如果像你们说的那样,这个问题就不成为问题了。 " “那又是为什么?” “因为如果如你们所说,村子是由某种力量一夜之间建成的,那么所有的人的意识也早已被安排好了,也就 是说我们的生活就是这样被安排好了的。那结果当然就不会是其他的样子了。 " “可是我们一直不明白,为什么就连村民自己都不知道自己的过去实际上是什么样子呢?并且上次塔索说他 见到以前的伙伴,但是他们却不知道自己的过去了,反而认定自己一直生活在这里,这岂不是非常奇怪吗? " 微谷看着我俩,“原来我们在树林里说的话你们都听见了。” 嘉维勒又大概给微谷讲了一下塔索与他的故事。微谷站起身来踱了会儿步,“看来你们的经历确实是真的。 " 微谷说明天他想叫钱思哲一起来讨论,因为他觉得钱思哲比现在村子里的任何一个人都有可能继续他关于这 个村子的历史的思考。我们只好告辞,答应明天再来,临出门时微谷对我们说:“我送给你们一句话,希望你们 能真正地明白它:'自由'并不能让你们获得自由。 " 第二天我们起来时却发现自己变得苍老了,这里又发生了什么? 长老钱思哲长老钱思哲 全知的人能否回答根本不存在的问题。 ——全知悖论 当我们再次敲响洛修特和微谷的屋门时,走出来的却是钱思哲。 “我已经等了你们二十年了。” What?难道我们又经过了二十年,可是上次我们只呆了两天呀! 钱思哲说:“微谷已经走了,上次你们来,他本想叫我和你们见一面,可是第二天我们发现你们俩已经不辞 而别了。 " “微谷是什么时候走的?” “已经有十年了。” 我们沉默着不知说什么好了,隐约地我的内心无比的惆怅。 “微谷走时希望我能一只留下来,思考一个问题:我们的过去,或者对我来说是这个村子的过去。也许你们 已经知道了,我并不是这个村子的人,微谷说也许正是由于这个原因我才有希望揭开这里面的谜团。 " "Maybe." “不知道是什么原因,微谷说你们总是间隔二十年才来一次,所以我能一见到你们就猜出来。” 我们上次并没注意这个细节,所以也没告诉微谷,没想到转瞬间就再也见不到他了。 “不过你们并不是像微谷说的,总是一样的年轻,现在看来你们也逃不过岁月的流逝。”可是这到底是怎么 回事就连我们自己也不知道。 嘉维勒说:“我们想知道的问题也许只有洛修特能够说明白。” 钱思哲说:“其实微谷也已想到了,只是他不能肯定,他说这其中有太多不可思议的地方,所以他希望我能 思考历史是什么,希望从中能找到一点关于这个村子的来历的证据。 " “为什么先要思考历史?难道这与这个村子有什么关系?” “是的,历史也许并不像我们已经知道的那么简单,也可以说历史并不是只能有一种解释。” 我说:“如果这样说,我们岂不是可以随意解释历史了?那还能叫历史吗?” 嘉维勒也说:“是呀,我们并不能改变历史。” “但我们可以重新解释历史。” “如果都按照自己的理解解释历史,那还有真实的历史存在吗?” 钱思哲叹了口气,“的确,但是现在我们怀疑的就是我们的过去,因为我们已经不敢肯定我们的过去就真的 是现在所知道的那样。也许确实像你们说的,这个问题只有洛修特一人能回答,即便是微谷也不能清楚地明白其 中的奥秘。 " 我说:“但是如果这些问题都不存在,洛修特又怎么可能回答?虽然我们的目的就是来探听这个奥秘的,但 现在我都怀疑我们的问题可能根本就不存在。 " 嘉维勒也说:“不错,因为后来听微谷说其实洛修特早就知道我们想来干什么,但是他不仅没给我们说什么 ,就是离开时也没向微谷交待任何这方面的事。现在我真的怀疑我们以前的怀疑会不会根本就是假的。 " 钱思哲说:“我不知道你们的猜测是不是正确,恐怕就是你们自己也不知道吧。微谷曾对我说过,即便是全 知的人也不可能回答根本不存在的问题。 " 我奇怪地问:“如果根本不存在问题又怎么回答?” “是,但对于全知的人来说他应该知道什么是不存在的问题。” 嘉维勒说:“可是如果他知道了这个不存在的问题,却又不能回答,那他岂不是就不全知了吗?” “对呀,”我说,“但是如果他不知道什么是不存在的问题,那又怎么可能说是全知呢?” 钱思哲笑了笑说:“微谷说得没错,你们两个就知道不停地问问题。但是你们还要注意,从中我们至少可以 得到两个结论:如果我们承认能找到不存在的问题,那就意味着不存在全知的人;而如果这样的问题根本找不到 ,当然就不需要回答。所以不存在的问题根本就不是问题,当然也不可能找到。 " 我接着问道:“那现在我想问的是,你们怀疑村子的历史是不是一个问题。” “的确,我们现在不知道这是不是一个问题,也就是说我们不知道能不能回答。” 看来思考也有无能为力的时候。 是呀,我们在思考一个永远无法用事实来证明的问题,那么这个问题还有存在的必要吗?还可能被解答吗? 这次我们除了更加迷惑以外,唯一的收获就是开始怀疑我们的问题是否真的存在了! 最后的决定最后的决定 我看着嘉维勒,不知道这是什么时候的我们,因为我们又像来时一样年轻了。 看看天上的云彩,这是一个如此真实的世界。 我们走到城堡的大门前,拿出微谷在四十年前给我们的通行证。门卫看了看,“这是我们城堡的通行证吗? " “当然是了,你看上面的标志。” “标志的确没错,可是这是什么时候的?我在这儿从没见过。” “你可以交给海德村的钱思哲长老,他会明白的。” “钱思哲长老?我只听说过他,但我还没机会见到他呢!” “现在不是一个见他的机会吗?” “对呀,你们等等,我很快就回来。”另一个门卫说:“你去吧,代我向长老们问候一声。” 我们没想到长老亲自来迎接我们了。 可是他见到我们有些纳闷,他对我说:“你不是前几天刚走吗?这位好像不是上次和你一起来的。”原来现 在是麦力和我来过以后不久。 我赶紧说:“这位是我的朋友,他听我说起海德村的事也很想来看看,我们就一起来了。” “可是这两张通行证是四十年前微谷给另外两位村里的朋友的,怎么会在你们这儿呢?” 嘉维勒说:“其实……其实你说的那两位朋友是我们镇上的前辈,他们听说又有人来这里时就叫我代表他们 来看看。 " “原来是这样,如果不是你们的年龄不符,我真以为还是他们呢!” 等我们进到村子里时,我又见到了小肯特姆、斯泰罗、索斯还有其他的长老们。 小肯特姆问我们这次来又有什么有趣的问题吗?我说这次来就是想解开你们的问题。钱思哲说:“难道你们 知道这是怎么回事了? " 嘉维勒说:“来时两位前辈告诉我们,只要找到你——钱思哲长老,告诉你一件事,如果你能答应,也许还 有可能解开所有的谜团,如果这次也不行也许就再也没什么可能了。 " 钱思哲说:“那你们就说吧,我们都会尽力办到的。” 我也不知道这个嘉维勒葫芦里到底卖的是什么药。但是他说的没错,如果这次还无法解开谜团,以后就真的 没机会了,因为我们已经回到了现在。 只听嘉维勒说:“两位前辈告诉我,只有一个地方有解开这个秘密的可能。那就是洛修特最后走进去的地方 ,据说微谷也去了。那就是——大殿里的那间被上了锁的小屋。 " 长老们齐声惊呼:“什么?他们说的是那间小屋,可是……”长老们的目光都转向了钱思哲。 沉默、犹豫、等待、紧张…… “我同意!”钱思哲说。 "..." 又是一片安静…… “我也同意,”小肯特姆说。 斯泰罗接着说:“我后来也听钱思哲长老说过以前的一些事,我相信那两位前辈做出这样的决定一定有他们 的道理。I agree. " “可是,村子留下的规矩只允许那些决定'回家'不再回来的人进去,难道我们都决定不再回来了吗?” 小肯特姆说:“难道我们怀疑的不正是村子的真实性吗?如果是真的,虽然我们无法回来了,但是村里其他 的人不也知道了吗?如果是虚假的,我们岂不是得到了答案。难道我们的目的不就是这样吗! " 钱思哲说:“是的,即便再经过多少年,这个问题也不会有答案的,除非是通过行动来证实它,因为现在已 经到了用事实来证明它的时候了。 " 大家随着钱思哲长老走进大厅里,走向那间静默的小屋。 大殿里回响着大家的脚步声,越来越接近了,那扇被上了锁的门就在我们的面前。 门的后面会是什么?是我们一直在寻找的答案,还是我们永远无法预料、无法想象的…… two letters two letters 每个人迟早都要停止思考, 但这并不是说将来的某一天就没有人思考了。 ——思考的悖论 吱…… 小屋的门被打开了,我们的面前是长长的阶梯,直通地下,随着我们的脚步,两边的墙壁上亮起了灯光。 我不知道走了多久,好像很长,又好像不长,到了下面居然又有一个大厅。一块光滑的大理石上摆着两个信 封。 我们走进一看,一个信封上写着“留于后来人——洛修特”,另一个上写着“留于后来人——微谷”。them 说的后来人是谁?是我们吗? 洛修特的信: “我猜第一个看到这封信的人应该是微谷吧。 很高兴你终于来了,也许你已经开始怀疑这个村子里的一切了,抬头看看这个大厅的顶。 " 我们都仰头向上看去,高高的屋顶成一个巨大的扣在屋子上的半椭圆形,在这个半椭圆面上有很多放射状的 线。 “你看到了吗?这些就是村子的秘密所在。”这是什么样的秘密? “我想然后来到这里的也许就是那两个外来的人了,其实从一开始我就知道你们两个是来探听村子的秘密的 .并且由于你们奇怪的举动,我判断你们是从另一个世界来到这儿的。 还记得我曾经说过的一个关于语言的问题吗? '我坐在桌子上,桌子是名词,所以我坐在名词上'。你们已经有了解释它的办法了吗?是的,其实并不难 ,桌子是名词,但名词却不是桌子。或者我们应该严格一点,在第二个桌子上加上引号,现在再来看,'桌子' 其实不是桌子,'桌子'是一个词而并不是可以摆在那儿的实际物体。名词是一个类概念,它包括的可不止一个 词。如果非要说坐在名词上也不是不可以,但要加一点东西,我们就可以说:我坐在桌子上,因为'桌子'是一 个名词,所以我坐在一个以一个名词命名的物体上。虽然这样我们说的有些不清不楚了,但至少避免了错误。 如果你们终于来了,那就让我来解开你们的迷惑吧。 你们说的没错,你们第一天来的时候这里还是一片丛林,而我们来的还要稍晚与你们,但当时我们的能量不 足了,大多数人已经昏迷,只剩下我还能走动。后来我发现了你们,就点了一堆火,等你们过来,因为我实在没 有力气抬你们了。 记得后来你们问我为什么当时我说回答我提出的问题就能救大家的话,其实这就是你们刚才抬头看到的大厅 的秘密,也是这里的能量来源的秘密,我想你们可能也发现了,但是一定无法解释吧。 这里的能源就来自你们的思考。 当你们随便回答我的问题时是不能产生能量的,只有你们思考时才能产生能量,无论你们是否能得出问题的 答案。这种能量就来自思考的过程。 所以是你们救了我和所有的村民,非常感谢。 这里还有一个秘密,你们看到了大厅左边的墙上有一个按键盘吗?上面有一个键可以通过反馈给思考者能量 的大小来改变他们的记忆,这也是你们怎么也想不通的吧。为什么有些人来到这儿之后会忘记以前的事,并且会 重新形成一个对过去的记忆。我本想改变你们两个的记忆,但我又觉得你们也许是解开这个谜的最佳人选。 " 我吓出了一身冷汗,看看嘉维勒,也是一脸的紧张,还好这个洛修特没真的那样做。 “不过你们不用担心,这种能量的获得不会对思考者有任何的伤害,其实反而会增进思考者的智慧。但随着 智慧的增加,思考者都会对这种存在方式产生怀疑的,所以我知道微谷会来的,你们也会来的,还有许多我见过 、没见过的人也会来的。 最终大家会发现这些看似虚幻的东西将给你们带了无穷的乐趣。这看似个玩笑,但其实我希望你们能从自己 的思考中得到你们各自的生命能量。 记住我最后留给你们的话:每个人都是会死去的,但将来的某一天一定还有人活着。他会在干什么?最可能 的就是在——思考! 朋友们,我只是先你们一步走了,你们可以去关上键盘上写着'部分'的那个按钮了,如果是长老会的所有 成员都来了,就去关上写着'全部'的那个按钮。
