Chapter 879 We Meet Again

Hopkins' body, Xiangshan waited for several hours and found that the Six Dragons Cult still showed no signs of catching up.

Those guys probably really lost him.

Xiangshan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did the shooter's AI choose to self-destruct to delay the other party's steps?" Xiangshan thought for a moment and came to this conclusion.

The song of the big whale sounded melodiously. Xiangshan then knew what the plastic products he had picked up before were used for. Those resonators will enhance a small part of the whale's song. On human instruments, those enhanced songs will still be mixed with the movement of earthquakes and ocean currents. But the whale's instinct is very sensitive to this sound.

These resonators can further expand the transmission range of whale songs, as if the sound is condensed into a "line" connecting the distance.

Occasionally, whales will even act as a relay and sing the songs of their distant companions again.

This is a "communication network" based on sound. Although the delay is high, it is the fruit of the whale's nature under the catalysis of wisdom, and it is something that every whale can enjoy.

If there were not so few whales left on this planet, perhaps the network formed by the whale song would be larger and richer.

Xiangshan closed his eyes and listened to the whale's song. Humans prioritize vision. Even for the mechanical wave signals sent back by sonar, humans often do not connect them with hearing, but tend to graft them onto vision. It is better to say that from the perspective of "seeing thunder", human warriors will use the two functions of "vision" and "language" to govern all feelings as Saussure's domain expands.

But at Xiangshan's level, it can be said that "sending and receiving are from the heart". Xiangshan can also understand the whale songs sent back by the sonar receiving device in the form of "processing auditory signals".

Thanks to the prosthesis, humans can already infinitely expand the range of sounds they can hear.

The song of the whale is very interesting. This is a rare case of Xiangshan finding an expression "incomprehensible" after he has achieved great success.

This is non-human language.

What is language?

Ingrid once told him this. Some people believe that language is not designed for communication. Language was born for thought. If it is just for "communication", then non-verbal signals can also do it. Many animals with underdeveloped brains can transmit a lot of information by relying on non-verbal signals.

For example, the cry of a baby expressing hunger is a non-verbal signal. Two people who speak different languages ​​and cannot understand each other at all can actually rely on these innate things to complete many activities needed for survival.

Language was born with thought, and then it was applied by humans to communication.

Or, humans apply their "externalized" thoughts to communication. And language, this "externalized thought", gradually squeezes out the position of innate non-verbal signals.

The important factor that determines human thought is the innate brain.

Although humans are diverse, these diverse wills are based on a unified foundation.

Just like the personalized settings of electronic products. Even if the hardware and software are exactly the same, they will form different traces due to different people's usage habits.

So, what about non-human creatures? Will they have similar thoughts to humans?

If the rapidly expanding Saussure Divine Realm can make it easy for the inner master to learn all human languages, what will he choose when he encounters languages ​​other than humans?

Is it the kind of confusion that ordinary people will have when listening to strange languages?

No, it's not.

There is a clear boundary between "language" and "non-language". In the era of Homo sapiens, people who are sensitive to language can easily distinguish the difference between "strange foreign languages" and "random gibberish". In this era, the inner masters have a more acute perception of language.

But this perception is confused in front of the whale's song.

It's like seeing incomprehensible dazzling colors.

Human language is determined by the specific structure of the human brain's neural network, the so-called "Saussure zone" in tradition. The language function of whales is determined by the whale's brain. There must be a difference between the two.

But whales can use human language.

Xiangshan heard clearly just now that the whales and dolphins had spoken to him in human language.

Although the killer whales said that human language made them uncomfortable and tired of talking, they were still willing to talk to Xiangshan.

Perhaps it was out of loneliness.

Different smart devices, even if the hardware is very different, can run the same system software - as long as the compatibility patches are enough and good, and efficiency is not considered.

Human language and whale songs are formed based on completely different natural conditions, but humans and whales have the possibility of mutual understanding.

——Because... we live in... the same material world...

Xiangshan put his spirit into the song of the whale. He vaguely felt...

No, it was the inner strength insights brought by the Eighth Martial God that told him that he might have touched the opportunity to take his inner strength to a higher level.

The song of the whale is mournful. Xiangshan has no way of knowing the "meaning" of this tone, but the song itself is continuous and regular. For Xiangshan, the song of the whale is empty, just like the sea.

Xiangshan's consciousness was operating on this "nothingness". His thoughts seemed to be dissolved in an unfamiliar law.

Until the singing stopped.

That was a few days later. During this period, Panique had made trouble several times, but the dolphins really liked her and had been creating various forms of games to play with her. And on this day, the dolphins told Xiangshan that they had to go first and return to the base.

Probably to report local things to Xiangshan.

Xiangshan didn't care. It was already a great luck to be able to arrive here. It didn't matter if the people here drove him away directly. As long as these people could take Panique to shore safely... or just live here.

He had already harvested the treasure.

The dolphins left for about an hour. Then, they brought two humans over. Both of these humans used the fish tail state prosthesis of the Six Dragons Sect, but the proportions of the upper and lower bodies were more even.

Xiangshan waved and said, "Hey, both of you, hello. I am the knight Wuming, who happened to pass by and was saved by these whale friends."

Unexpectedly, one of them was shocked, as if very surprised.

He quickly sent a message to the other person.

The man was also very surprised and asked, "Xiangshan?"
