Chapter 1017 Meditation Assembly

The Fungus King revealed to Joan that all mushroom man communities at least have such a spacious and quiet "meditation hall", which is similar to the "church" in human communities. Anyone who is interested in participating in meditation gatherings can walk into this hall.

Conservative mushroom people tend to love the meditation hall near their home community, and like to meditate with their neighbors.

And those mushroom people who are more curious, especially young people, sometimes get bored with the meditation companions in the community, so they go to the meditation halls in remote communities to participate in gatherings with strangers, so as to gain more fresh feelings.

Every meditation meeting has a host, just like the priest who presides over Mass in a church.

In this "meditation hall" inside the palace building, the host of the gathering is King Fungus himself.

Joan, Hailaer, and Zion siblings sat next to each other in a corner of the hall according to the instructions of the king of mushrooms, surrounded by mushroom people with mushroom caps on their heads. I don't know what to do next.

King Jun walked to the space reserved in the center of the hall, sat on the ground, raised his cane, and announced the official start of the meditation session.

Joan looked around, all the mushroom people looked serious, there was no cheering or applause, it was as quiet as... a group of mushrooms.

The solemn and solemn atmosphere made him feel a lot of pressure, and he didn't dare to talk loudly to his companions. He waited and watched the changes with nervousness and anticipation.

The fungus king shook his stick, and a cloud of shining silver spores erupted from his body.

The other mushroommen in the hall, as if they got some kind of signal, also shook their upper bodies lightly, and sprayed large groups of silver spores from the bottom of the mushroom cap.

Joan and the four of them were covered in silver spores in a blink of an eye, subconsciously covering their mouth and nose, worried about adverse reactions caused by inhaling the spores.

At this moment, Qiao An and the others felt the spiritual response from the fungus king, and learned that this silver spore is not only non-toxic, but also can make all intelligent creatures under the cloud of spores reconcile and communicate with each other spiritually, as long as one thought , you can convey your thoughts to all the meditation partners in the hall.

It is through these mysterious "spiritual spores" that the mushroom people have acquired the ability to communicate thoughts and express emotions, and then produce a common culture and tradition, forming a highly developed social group.

In other words, if there were no "spiritual spores", there would be no "fungus mushroom nation", let alone the present mushroom people society.

Joan and the outsiders themselves do not have the ability to spread "mind spores", but they are in a space full of mind spores, and they can also obtain the ability of telepathy, and have unimpeded communication with each other or with the mushroom man. spiritual communication.

Joan doesn't like to participate in social activities, but this weird way of socializing makes him very curious, and it is also a good opportunity to delve into the society of mushroom people.

In this hall, there are more than a hundred humans and mushroom people participating in the meditation gathering.

The way of human communication requires the help of "mouth" and "ear", which is actually only suitable for "point" to "point" communication, that is, when one person speaks, the other person keeps listening.

If there is a "point" to "surface" communication, such as one person is speaking and others are listening, then there are requirements for the environment and distance. There should be no noise at the scene, and the distance between the audience and the speaker should not be too far, otherwise it will affect the Receipt of information.

If you carry out "face-to-face" communication, like in a vegetable market, everyone is noisy, trying to let the conversation partner hear their speech, but they interfere with each other, making communication even more difficult.

What's more, in the "vegetable market" model, in fact, the communication between people is mainly "dot" to "dot", and no one expects that every word he speaks can be accurately conveyed to everyone in the market. In one's ears, one does not expect to be able to hear everyone's speech at the same time - otherwise the head will be bursting with interfering voices!

It can be seen that the efficiency of information exchange through external organs such as "mouth" and "ears" is very low. The amount of information or the number of bytes transmitted per second is positively related to the speed of speech. However, once the speed of speech is too fast, listening On the other hand, it is difficult to analyze the semantics in real time, and misunderstandings are inevitable.

"Point-to-point" communication is so inefficient, let alone "point-to-face" or "face-to-face" multi-threaded communication.

The frequency of sound that can be emitted by human throats has a very narrow bandwidth, and each channel will interfere with each other. If a group of people speak at the same time, if it is not for the carefully choreographed chorus, it will be a terrible communication disaster!

In contrast, the communication methods of mushroom people are much more advanced!

Through the "mind spore" particles that fill the entire indoor space, more than a hundred people participating in the meditation practice are connected with each other, and the thoughts of all people are integrated into a common field, and each person's thoughts can be instantly transmitted to all around. Man, if need be, can listen to any of his companions.

Compared with the communication methods of human beings, the meditation practice of the mushroom people is like the torrent of water to the water droplets dripping intermittently from the faucet, and the efficiency of information exchange is not at the same level at all.

After all, Qiao An and the others are participating in a meditation gathering for the first time, and they are not used to multi-threaded communication at the same time like the fungus man. Under the impact of the flood of information, they feel dizzy and confused in a few seconds, and quickly communicate with their hearts. Narrow down and only maintain spiritual communication with a few people around you.

After a period of adaptation, Qiao An and the others gradually got used to this communication method and felt much more comfortable.

The mushroom people keep sending greetings telepathically, asking them strange questions, mainly about the surface world.

During the first half of the meditation session, Joan, Hylar, and Zion kept telling the mushroom people interesting stories about the surface world, and at the same time learned a lot of local customs and interesting things from the mushroom people.

King Jun rang the topaz bell, announcing the second half of the meditation session.

The mushroommen who participated in the assembly, when they heard the bell, shook the mushroom cap again.

This time, in addition to the silver "psychic spores", they also released a "psychedelic spores" that shone with blue light.

Silver and blue, two kinds of luminous spores, blended in the meditation hall, turning into a gorgeous cloud.

The mushroom people first connect each other's thinking through "mind spores", and then use "psychedelic spores" to make everyone feel a common dream.

These common dreams, although born of illusory imagination, are not without practical significance.

In this way, every mushroom man can feel that he is closely connected spiritually with other tribesmen, sharing each other's happiness and pain.
