Paintings of Terror

"This is impossible." Qin Ci categorically denied, "Our current physiological state is a living person, and it is impossible to have a state of both life and death."

"What is the program trying to get these out?" Ke Xun pointed to the wave-like and grain-like dots on the top of his head.

"Whether it is the name of this painting or the pattern of wave-particle duality of particles displayed in each room in the painting, it seems to point to the phenomenon of quantum superposition state." Mu Yiran said, "In the field of physics , the equation used to express this 'superposition of multiple undetermined states' is called the wave function.

"In layman's terms, the wave function can be regarded as a list, which lists all possible states of a quantum superposition system. When people measure or observe, the wave function of this multi-state superposition It immediately collapses into a certain state in the superposition state.

"The wave-particle duality of particles is a wave function, and "Schrödinger's Cat" is also regarded as a wave function in the program, so I think that the location of the signature must be related to the wave function."

"Could it be that..." Ke Xun was about to speak, when he suddenly received a prompt for help, and he clicked on it quickly - now only the group of Wei Dong and Zhu Haowen who still ask for help, "What's wrong? What problem did you encounter? ?”

When Ke Xun started to ask, the other person was also asking him: "What's the matter with you? Have you encountered any problems?"

It was Zhu Haowen's voice.

Ke Xun was taken aback: "No, we have already broken through, how about you?"

There seemed to be a string of ellipsis floating on the opposite side: "...Why don't you come out after clearing the level?"

Ke Xun: "What about you? Have you cleared the level?"

Zhu Haowen: "We've broken through, we're already outside."

Ke Xun: "...Why are you asking for help after breaking the level? You scared me, thinking something happened to you."

Zhu Haowen: "...I was shocked. When will you come out?"

Ke Xun: "Go out now."

After hanging up the call with Zhu Haowen, Ke Xun said to Mu Yiran and Qin Ci: "It seems that everyone has passed this test, we have to go out and continue rolling the dice."

The three of them didn't delay any longer, and immediately returned to the room through the exit, and saw that the other groups of people were also present, and there was no shortage of one person.

Ke Xun looked at the time on his phone, and it was already eleven thirty-two at night.

It is usually the most dangerous time in the painting.

"Of course, after casting the dice and grouping, let's tell the results of the analysis just now to the people in the same group, and everyone thinks about clues together," Ke Xun said to Mu Yiran, taking the time, "Also, don't waste your help calls, Although you are always omnipotent in my heart, just in case, in case you need it, don’t waste it for me. Don’t worry, if you encounter a level that I can’t pass, I will be the first to ask you Ask for help, and if you don't receive my request for help, then it proves that I am sure of passing the test, just wait patiently for me, and I will also wait for you like this, okay?"

"Okay." Mu Yiran nodded slightly.

The countdown required to roll the dice on the interface has already started counting, Ke Xun had no choice but to stretch out his hand, ready to start another endless round of clearance.

If the program thinks that all matter has a quantum superposition state, Ke Xun suddenly thought, then does this dice also have the same properties?For example, is it both spinning and stopping?

If matter is determined by consciousness, when I "observe" it, it will stop and appear at a certain point, then if I don't "observe" it, will it show another result? Woolen cloth?Like... keep spinning?

Thinking about this, Ke Xun moved his outstretched finger, and first clicked on the book icon above the dice icon.

【Please state the content of the rules you want to apply】

"Electron double-slit interference phenomenon," Ke Xun quickly recalled all the knowledge points that Mu Yiran told him just now, "wave function, quantum superposition state." He said everything he knew.

[The law is passed.Please go to the item box to select the item you want to use. 】

--it works!Ke Xun suppressed his excitement and pointed his finger on the box icon.

[Please state the name of the prop you want to use. 】

Ke Xun tentatively said, "The dice on the interface."

[Request approved. 】

Ke Xun looked at the dice on the interface and found that it hadn't changed much. Seeing that the countdown was coming to an end, he could only start rolling the dice regardless of whether the idea was useful or not.

Ke Xunshen pointed at the dice, and the dice spun rapidly. Before the dice stopped, he closed his eyes.

After four or five minutes, Ke Xun heard Mu Yiran speaking in his ear: "Ke Xun, keep your eyes closed, don't open them for now."

Ke Xun knew that Mu Yiran had already understood his thoughts, and his thoughts really became a reality!

When each person rolls the dice, only he can see it, and others cannot see it, so that is to say, in the "box" of his "interface", he is the only observer. Once he closes his eyes, it is equivalent to a box If the camera is removed, the wave function of the dice will collapse to another possibility, which is to keep spinning.

The reason why Mu Yiran noticed it was because he was the second-ranked dice roller. When the 60-second countdown started, it proved that it was his turn to roll the dice. However, he waited for four or five minutes, and the countdown on his interface It has never been turned on, which means that the dice on Ke Xun's interface have not yet come to a result!

After everyone came out of the first level, due to the restriction and persecution of the countdown, they soon began to roll the dice of the second level, so there was no time to exchange information with each other or discuss ways to find clues. Now, after entering the second level Before the third pass, Ke Xun used this method to delay the time, so that everyone would not have to rush to enter the pass, and finally had a chance to communicate.

Mu Yiran didn't delay for a second, and immediately told others about the process and results of the discussion and analysis with Ke Xun and Qin Ci in the customs just now, and finally said: "The three of us all think that such endless barriers are very important to find Clues are useless and will only make us keep reducing staff, so we must find a way to get out of this predicament as soon as possible. Let's take advantage of this time to brainstorm and spread our thinking as much as possible."

"But we don't study physics, what can we come up with?" Deng Lin was anxious.

"Imagination is more important than following rules and regulations," Mu Yiran said, "The program also thinks so. So, put aside our habitual thinking and let go of thinking."

"Guys," Ke Xun closed his eyes, but it didn't prevent him from communicating with everyone. "Through the test just now, it can be proved that the rules and props can also be applied outside the level. I think we can use these two to find signatures."

"Then what rules can be used to find signatures?" Deng Lin asked hurriedly.

"I think so." Ke Xun said.

"Well, in such an emergency situation, it is impossible to think of it immediately." Deng Lin scratched his hair vigorously.

"What you're talking about," Weidong struggled out of the fluttering state where the world view was refreshed, "just like when we broke through the level just now, if we think about many rules and methods slowly in normal times, we might be able to come up with seven or eight of them. , and it is likely to be better and more effective than what we have come up with now, but in that tense state, the train of thought seems to be strangled, and you can only think of limited things. So take it easy, relax as much as possible, you have to You know, in this painting, consciousness determines matter... My mother, I still can't believe that the real world can be like this, I don't even dare to go back..."

"Hey, stop talking about unlucky nonsense." Ke Xun said, his voice became serious, "Of course, you should pay attention to the prompt on your interface, if the countdown starts, it means that my dice have stopped.

"Brother Qin, pay attention to the time on your phone. Although we delayed the time to enter the customs, we didn't delay the time in the picture. Once the time on the phone exceeds three o'clock at night, you will notify everyone.

"Haowen'er, you and Yiran know a lot about physics, and the two of you are responsible for thinking about the laws that apply to signatures.

"Dongzi, you and Carrot usually play games. I think these levels are similar to the type of clearance mini-games. The two of you are responsible for pondering from the perspective of the game. Is there a way to quickly pass the level or find hidden clues.

"Mr. Shao, you and Brother Qin are careful, and if you go through all the words that have appeared on the screen from the beginning, you may be able to find loopholes in the rules.

"Deng Lin, He Tang, and that beauty with the shawl hair..."

The girl with the shawl hair interjected, "My name is Wu You."

"Good name." Ke Xun said, "You three, don't worry about anything else, the task is to calm down, in order to survive, calm down even if you say anything."

"What about me?" Fang Fei asked.

"You show the three of them what standard calmness is." Ke Xun said.

Fang Fei: "..."

Eleven people became orderly from being dazed and shocked just now. Groups of three and two were concentrating on finding clues to the signature.

Ke Xun closed his eyes, his left ear listened to Mu Yiran and Zhu Haowen's low-pitched discussion, his right ear listened to Shao Ling and Qin Ci's careful arrangement, and the voices of Wei Dong and Luo Lishu's different levels of the game also came from time to time, All kinds of sounds converged in one place, but gradually became a little blurred, buzzing into one piece, floating around like a membrane.

Ke Xun's mind slowly settled down, and the darkness brought by his closed eyes made him feel as if he had returned to the painting "Sea Burning Rhinoceros" in a trance.

Every night is such darkness, and every night has different visions.Among these hallucinations, the most unforgettable one was, of course, that night when he heard his father's voice.

Even though it was an illusion, it was such a true simulation of his father's voice and character.

If... If all matter is really determined by consciousness, then the mass of matter in the human body is also determined by one's own consciousness?If consciousness is above the body, will consciousness still exist after the body dies?

It should exist, otherwise, if the consciousness of physical death disappears, wouldn't it still be equivalent to the consciousness determined by matter?

So, if the body cannot affect the consciousness, when it dies, the consciousness must still exist.So what we call the soul, is it the consciousness that has lost the body?

So, the dead people, where did their consciousness go?Is it drifting around uncontrollably, or will everyone have a place to go?

If consciousness can control the scope and location of oneself, then...then dad...would he be by my side all the time?He kept looking at me, watching me eating, sleeping, wandering on the road doing nothing, watching me laugh, watching me stare blankly, watching me cry.

Watching me grow up day by day, just like he was still.

If this is true, then I am also willing to believe that all matter in the macroscopic world has a quantum superposition state.

I am willing to believe in this whimsical view like a program.

As long as I can keep my dad by my side, even if he can only exist in another state.

……

and many more.

Will the program of losing my son be the same as mine?

The longing for his son made him crazily believe in this point of view—he thought that even though his son was dead, what died was only his body, and his son's consciousness was still alive, but he couldn't see it!

——That's why he kept saying that he wanted to find his son!

——The reason why he committed suicide was to let his body die in the same way, and to find his son in the same state of consciousness!
