Crow's Paradise

Chapter 160

Yao Yan's eyes were indifferent.

If it were him during his lifetime, Yao Yan might not be aware of the impact of "identity" on self-perception and outlook on life.

However, after "death", when the body disintegrated and existed in another form, he considered what kind of values ​​​​would be formed based on his current social relationships.

However, he couldn't put it aside.

Because, even if he puts aside his own values ​​and judgments during his lifetime, he will still be affected in terms of "words".

Many people don’t realize that the “word” itself is a judgment that condenses and presupposes values.

One of the most obvious and easily detectable examples is the use of positive words and derogatory words.

Without the language system, he cannot express, understand and judge.

And these language systems themselves more or less condense and presuppose value judgments.

This is an implicit value influence that is difficult to detect.

Just like home.

In his memory, "home" is more than just a residence.

In terms of importance, people in his country often valued "home" more than other countries and regions.

In this world, the existence of "home" is just a residence.

In a world where consciousness can be transferred at will, where bodies can be artificially manufactured, and where social appearance can be artificially customized

What kind of value judgment does the word home condense?

However, therein lies the biggest problem.

In the worlds he has experienced before, he can clearly detect the parts where values ​​are consistent in the words that are directly related to the time when he was alive.

But, this world.

A big difference.

If you want to deeply understand the differences in the condensation of values, Yao Yan must experience it himself.

However, this process cannot and cannot be accomplished solely by observing others.

To do this, he needs to align his values ​​with the original owner and act in accordance with the original owner's values.

In this way, he can understand the differences in the details of values ​​in this world.

This difference in details needs to be felt carefully.

When attention is insufficient, it is easy to be distracted while listening to these two people talking while thinking, causing interference in thinking. Even if he is far away and there is only a faint sound of voices in the background, it is easy to be distracted.

However, if there are no two people talking and there are only sounds from the surrounding environment, you will not waste too much thought, will not subconsciously identify what the two people are saying, and will not be so easily distracted.

Otherwise, for example, when you see his sentence, you may hear it as "if no one talks, you will not be distracted", and intentionally or unintentionally miss out one of the key words "easy".

He knew that the thought process was very susceptible to interference.

Especially humans, creatures with primitive impulses.

When humans are sleeping or awake, their thinking consciousness is like an automatic machine, putting together various words, concepts, and images to form "inspiration."

This mechanism is the basis of "association".

During his lifetime, there were related cases where at a specific time, he mentioned some words that did not seem to have any direct or indirect connection, and because of this automatic thinking mechanism, some people would have specific "inspirations".

This classic thinking interference exists in every aspect of the human thinking process.

Yao Yan did not think that he could avoid all distractions of thinking.

Looking at Arnold, he suddenly asked a question:

"Do you understand the last words of death?"

This sentence made Arnold blink his one eye:

"Death words? Of course, your arakkoa racial beliefs, right? The doctrine says that the deceased should leave only the bones, and the flesh and blood should not disappear with death. When the deceased leaves, all flesh and blood should be removed, leaving only the bones. "The lower bones."

However, Yao Yan just put on a cold face and said:

"This is not the racial belief of the Crow people, but the teachings of a church called the Bone Church. In the last era, all the Crow people joined this church and became members of this church."

His pair of crow eyes looked at the magic-eyed detective with indifference:

"The arakkoa of that era needed to receive enlightenment in church schools and learn words, characters, and understand the world through the textbooks of the Church of Bones."

Yao Yan recalled and recounted, and then turned his attention to the old vulture:

"Lord of Death."

Arnold, the magic-eyed man, glanced at the old vulture with some confusion, as if he didn't understand what the Rat Man's commission had to do with this matter:

"what is that?"

After the old vulture thought for a moment, he seemed to remember something:

"Oh, yes, in the last era, we vulture people were also racial members of the Church of Bones."

However, there seemed to be some doubts on his face, and he didn't understand why the arakkoa brother mentioned this.

Yao Yan responded loudly at this time:

"In the last era, rat people were also a member race of the Church of Bones, and the complete teachings of the Church of Bones say this"

Yao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he added various details that would benefit his actions to the few phrases he found in his memory and made obsessive changes:

"The member races of the Skeleton Church such as the Crow People and Rat People need to eat the corpses of the deceased to avoid the spread of plague and environmental pollution."

Regarding things that did not exist in his memory, Yao Yan continued to fabricate them without any fear:

"In that era, the right to transfer consciousness was controlled by a specific race. However, in the environment at that time, the Church of Bones and some other churches were completely hostile forces. Even if those races had enough resources and wanted to transfer consciousness, They are often not allowed to eat corpses whether they want to or not."

Although it is not certain where "freedom of consciousness transfer" ranks in the value sequence of this world, it certainly has a considerable impact.

Making up a story based on "restricting the freedom of consciousness transfer" will definitely attract the attention of many people in this era.

And just as he expected, both Arnold and Old Vulture's expressions changed slightly when they heard the mixed true and false "history" he had fabricated.

Moreover, it is not just "restricting the freedom of consciousness transfer", but also "eating corpses".

In this world where people can continuously transfer consciousness, although there is still a certain degree of discrimination between different races, no one knows what race other individuals around them have become, and they themselves will continue to change races, so , people's acceptance of different races is far beyond what Yao Yan could compare with during his lifetime.

The same goes for food. Due to the expansion of disguised recipes, people's acceptance of various foods has increased significantly. Unfortunately, corpses are not among them.

In this kind of society, even if their appearance is very different, different individuals will regard each other as the same kind due to "consciousness transfer".

In addition, because of the abundance of resources, this kind of "cannibalism" is also taboo for most people.

Although not precise enough, Yao Yan has grasped the sensitive points of this era and society:

"Perhaps they are dissatisfied that they can only commit crimes and are forced to commit various dangerous crimes. It is difficult to save enough resources for consciousness conversion. I heard that there are revivalists of the Bone Church among the rat people."

Yao Yan said, also watching their reactions:

"I heard that the attack cases are their revenge on society."

Human beings, driven by the psychology of self-protection, will always unconsciously have the idea of ​​"preferring to believe it".

Even though he said it was just "heard".
