Spy Family

Nong Xingwen poured a glass of water for each guest, and then said to Wen Jumo: "Thank you, my sister, you are no longer needed here."

"I wish you smooth communication." Wen Jumo smiled and left the room.

The cup is entirely made of wood. It seems that it has not been made for a long time, and there is a slight wood fragrance.

"I made it myself." Nong Xingwen said with a smile, looking at the tables, chairs, beds and other furniture in the room. "I made them all by myself. In addition to the house itself, building a house is a big project. Many brothers and sisters provided me with got help.”

None of the five guests sat down, holding the wooden cups in their hands, and none of them drank the water in them.

Nong Xingwen took a sip first, "It's just water. I won't say how good it is, but it's definitely not poisonous. It's just ordinary water."

Mao Kongshan took a sip and said, "I thought Zicheng usually does not allow any men to enter. We all have special circumstances."

"Of course, everyone has special circumstances, and so do I. I am an envoy and came to Jiazixing in a diplomatic capacity, so I can bypass some regulations." Nong Xingwen pointed to the chairs and stools in the room, "Sit down, it looks ugly. It’s a little bit off, but it’s guaranteed to be solid. If there are no accidents, we may have to chat for a while, after all, we have a lot of doubts in our hearts.”

Lu Linbei put the cup back on the wooden table and chose two stools close to each other to sit down. His left hand always held Chen Manchi's right hand and did not let go for a moment. Chen Manchi did not allow him to let go. Her fingers were now separated. Externally powerful.

The other three people also sat down, and Mao Kongshan took a sip of water unconsciously to relieve his thirst and nervousness.

Nong Xingwen was thinner than when he was in King Zhai. The scars left by torture on his body had completely disappeared. The trauma and impact on his soul were not affected by time. He looked gloomier and more confident.

"How about I briefly introduce the situation." Nong Xingwen firmly took the lead. Seeing that no one raised objections, he continued: "The population of Jiazixing has always been sparse, but the development of Guangye Farm has been particularly smooth. More and more farms are built. There are more and more robots coming out of automatic factories, and they have long exceeded the number of humans. Jiazixing people rarely interfere with farms and robots, which creates a unique situation: Jiazixing's robots can evolve independently."

"Evolution?" Mao Kongshan expressed confusion.

"Well, I understand that, generally speaking, the word 'evolution' is used for organic matter. From the Earth Age to the Interstellar Age, robots are the products and attachments of human evolution. But on Jiazi Star, things have quietly changed. Mass production There are always slight differences in the robots. If it does not affect the function, it can be put into use normally. If it affects the function too much, it will be repaired or even destroyed. This is a set of processes. The differences accumulate over time, and finally a robot like this is produced, which has self-awareness. , can ask questions, one of which is: What is the significance of the existence of robots and Guangye Farm?"

"It's hard to believe." After discovering that he had been deceived, Mao Kongshan regained his questioning spirit as an expert and refused to accept strange ideas easily. "This sounds like a cheap science fiction movie, because there is only a certain kind of thing like 'meaning'." Some people believe that it exists and is important. In the scientific community, at least among serious scientists, very few people discuss it, let alone regard it as an important factor. I am not a scientist, but I have contacted many scientists, and there is no Any one of them will talk a lot about the 'meaning' of human existence. If a robot has similar doubts, it is unlikely to evolve, and it is more likely that there is a problem with the language library."

"I'm not a scientist, so the expression may not be accurate." Nong Xingwen didn't show any embarrassment at all, as if this was a normal little slip of the tongue, "The machine itself is still difficult to evolve. The machine I'm talking about is unique. The beauty is that it accepts human thought, like a living brain."

"Then it turned all the Jiazi people into half humans and half machines?" Lu Linbei spoke for the first time after seeing Nong Xingwen.

"Not entirely accurate. More than thirty years ago, the robot named itself 'Gui Hai' and decided to share its new abilities with humans. Unsurprisingly, it was rejected. Humans were unwilling to share their minds with machines and thought It’s treasonous to think that robots are going to start a rebellion.”

Nong Xingwen paused for a moment, "In fact, there is no rebellion. Once Guihai shows its magic, the Jiazi people immediately see its huge potential and are willing to cooperate with it."

"What's the magic?" an official couldn't help but ask, "Guihai can only accommodate human thinking. It sounds like it is just digitizing thinking."

"It's more than 'just'." Nong Xingwen seemed happy that someone asked the question, with a look of excitement on his face. It was a precursor to him wanting to "burn" someone. "Its significance can be compared with the birth of high-performance batteries." Comparable. In the early earth era, humans had just tamed electricity and could not make this power completely obedient. They used all means to produce electricity and delivered it to users' homes through lines. A large part of the electricity was wasted during the transmission process. The whole system was complex and fragile, so there was a word at that time called "blackout". Batteries solved all problems, and humans who were firmly bound by the power system suddenly gained great freedom and could live in dispersed situations. In an area suitable for human habitation, as long as you bring enough batteries, it is basically no problem. The most important thing is that humans can finally leave the earth, go to alien stars, and create a great interstellar civilization."

Nong Xingwen himself "burned" first, and his body seemed to radiate light. "The robot accommodates human thinking, and its meaning is similar to that of a battery. For robots, being able to gain uniqueness and originality is, in a sense, Evolution. For humans, it means getting rid of the shackles of the body. The body is like the power system of the earth era. It provides energy but is also a shackles. When we were still on earth, the degree of evolution of the brain had surpassed that of the body and entered the interstellar space. With the times, the gap between the two is getting wider and wider. I believe that everyone has this feeling: there is obviously huge potential hidden, but very few can be used. Because humans are intelligent creatures, and our potential is all in the brain , the body’s potential has already reached its limit. If you want to stimulate your full potential and gain pure freedom, there is only one way – to change your body.”

Nong Xingwen is not just narrating, he is like a fanatical believer in preaching, feeling the call of the gods, believing deeply in his words and deeds, and announcing the oracle with a saving attitude.

The two officials were dumbfounded, Mao Kongshan was dubious, and Lu Linbei remained calm...

Nong Xingwen's eyes swept across the faces of several people, and finally looked at Chen Manchi, "Have you ever experienced it personally? Don't you think that is a kind of freedom?"

Chen Manchi's expression changed slightly, "I don't know, I... don't need that much freedom. What I have now is enough."

Nong Xingwen smiled, "When they were free for the first time, most people didn't know how to use it. Some people were like nouveau riche, squandering money at will. Some people were still bound by the old thinking. Even if the shackles on their bodies were removed, they still couldn't use it. Don’t dare to act at will. But it doesn’t matter. Those who squander freely will eventually learn to be moderate, and those who restrain their hands will sooner or later get used to freedom.”

"What have you done to her?" Lu Linbei asked coldly.

Nong Xingwen said: "Let her tell you herself."

Lu Linbei stared at Nong Xingwen for a while, then turned to Chen and said slowly: "Have they modified your body?"

As before, Chen Manchi waited for a while before answering, "I can't explain clearly. Anyway, it feels different from before. I am much stronger, can run faster, and can exchange with other sisters." Physically, I don’t like this kind of thing, but as soon as I enter the game, many things are out of my control.”

Nong Xingwen said: "That is not an exchange, but a common possession. Through the system, the thinking of all Jiazi people can form a whole. This is another great benefit of integration. Limited by the fragile body, humans will never be able to Sharing minds, let alone bodies, with others. Most of humanity's problems, especially those related to disputes, all stem from this, from ineffective communication and mutual misunderstandings. The Jiazixing people fundamentally solved this problem, only With the help of machines, holistic thinking is possible, and only then can humans end their disputes and embark on a more ambitious path of evolution.”

Chen Manchi was not persuaded. In fact, she seemed to understand, and her mind was not on it at all. She just wanted to stare at the people around her and confirm over and over again that this was not a dream.

The person who was a little tempted was Mao Kongshan, but there was a question stuck in his heart that he couldn't help but say, "Why do people in Jiazixing lie? Wouldn't it be good to tell the truth as soon as possible? The first batch of people to arrive at Jiazixing were all experts in various industries. , especially in the scientific community, we can accept this kind of thing, as long as it is... the voluntary choice of the Jiazi Star people. Also, why did Guihai escape from Jiazi Star? In short, many things are confusing. "

Nong Xingwen changed his target from Chen Manchi to Mao Kongshan, "Let me talk about it one by one."

"It's up to you, as long as you can explain it clearly."

"More than thirty years ago, with the help of Guihai, the Jiazi people achieved the fusion of man and machine. But as I just said, after enjoying freedom for the first time, most people either squandered it or restrained themselves. In short, they are not doing well. Time will change everything, but the Jiazi people have a serious problem, that is, their numbers are too small and they cannot withstand too much trouble. In order to protect the first batch of new races that integrate humans and machines, Guihai decided Erase their memories so that they still think they are humans, and defeat a robot rebellion. Although this will cause the Jiazi people to be more self-restrained, it at least solves the extinction crisis that may be caused by overuse."

Mao Kongshan thought for nearly a minute and nodded slowly, "That's an explanation. Why did Guihai run away? It is said that he even erased his own memory."

"The serious problem of Jiazi Planet is that the number is too small. The solution is naturally to find more humans. However, the experiments on Jiazi Planet have proved one thing. Human-machine integration needs to be gradual and not too impatient, so Guihai erased his memory. Because he is a robot, everything is stored digitally, and in extreme cases, his memory will be taken away. And this extreme case really happened."

"Gui Hai didn't do many good things after he found humans." Lu Linbei interjected.

"Guihai erased his memory too completely, which turned him into a 'baby' who needs to relearn and evolve again. I admit that there were some deviations, but that is definitely not Guihai's nature. A mature Guihai It will bring hope to all mankind.”

If Lu Linbei had not heard the reminder from that mysterious voice, it would be difficult for Lu Linbei to refute Nong Xingwen's "brainwashing", but he only refuted it in his heart and did not want to reveal the secret.

"Can I interpret what you just said as a request for peace?" Lu Linbei asked.

"There is no need to sue for peace, because peace has been reached. Guihai will soon return to Jiazi Planet, will recover all memories, and will enter a mature stage. Humanity should also be prepared to welcome the new era."

Nong Xingwen stood up and said, "Mingwang Planet has recognized the independent status of Jiazi Planet, and other planets will soon recognize it. You are no longer ordinary guests, you are all diplomats. As for this sister, her identity needs to be re-confirmed."
