Chapter 208 Huang Tian Rules the World
"My two Taoist friends, welcome to my Taiping Dao."
The former Xiaowu, now the Taiping Dao master, had no expression on his face. He just looked at Lin Chen and the others with a normal expression.
Around them, the Taoist priests of the Taiping Dao stood up with numb expressions, surrounded the two people, and blocked all the exits.
"Is this what you call the Taiping Dao?!" Xu Yue stared at the Taiping Dao master, "I thought you had taken a new path"
"But I didn't expect that you used poisonous insects to control the people. What's the difference between you and those aristocratic families who are willing to harm the world for their own rights?!"
"I don't use poisonous insects to control the people, but to rule the world with mathematics." The Taiping Dao master faced Xu Yue's questioning, and his expression did not change at all, and even his tone did not fluctuate at all.
"Mathematics is just a cover-up purpose! I can see clearly that you have planted poisonous insects in everyone, and you clearly want to control the world!" Faced with this sentence, Xu Yue's face was unmoved.
The Taoist Taiping looked at Xu Yue expressionlessly and asked an irrelevant question: "Daoyou, do you believe in human nature?"
"Huh?" Xu Yue was stunned by the sudden turn of events. "It's hard to trust human nature, but what does it have to do with your current behavior?"
The Taoist Taiping ignored him and said to himself: "In fact, whether it is etiquette, law, or even morality, when it was first established, as long as everyone can abide by it, it will surely create eternal peace."
"But human nature is greedy and changeable, so no matter how perfect these initial settings are, they will be changed. There is no escape from the corruption of human hearts. Even if it is absolutely fair mathematics, if someone deliberately confuses it and conceals key information, it is also enough to deceive people. "
"So it seems that people are controlling mathematics and governing the world. There is progress, but in the final analysis, it is still a reincarnation of hundreds of years. "
"So, since this road is not feasible, it is better to do the opposite, let people control mathematics, and let mathematics control people!" Lin Chen said in a deep voice, "But I am curious, how do you do this?"
The Taiping Taoist said in a flat tone, without any ups and downs.
"Any Gu worm has a mother worm that produces it, and the mother worm can establish a connection with the worm group and collect the information they upload."
"We planted Gu worms on everyone, and each fixed number of Gu worms will be connected to a Taoist priest. Their output, consumption, etc. will be uploaded as corresponding data, collected by the worm mother, and then directed by the Taoist priest according to the corresponding situation..."
"Whether it is an individual, a group, or the output and consumption of the entire society, it will be turned into a digital control on the surface, open and transparent in the information that the parasitic Gu worm feeds back to the host."
"Then according to the prescribed mathematical analysis, the people who create value will be distributed according to their work, and the rest will be handed over to the inventory for unified planning and construction, and any consumption will be turned into clear data and made public..."
"Every piece of data will be accurately located, and the excess value will not be deprived. The output of society will be turned into data and distributed to everyone in a fair manner according to mathematics.
"And if the data of any link does not match, sanctions will be imposed. The Gu worm parasitizing the human body will eat its heart to death. In this way, there will be no exploitation and oppression in the whole society. Everyone will do their best. The more they work, the more they get. Even lazy people can get the basic needs of life as long as they complete fixed tasks..."
"Fairness and justice, God rewards hard work, children are educated, and the elderly are supported... The whole society, under the governance of mathematics, eliminates oppression and exploitation, eliminates internal friction and calculation, and moves forward together. This is the prosperous era that we, the Taiping Dao, pursue!"
"How can a society so complex be calculated by mathematics? !" Xu Yue questioned.
"Everything can be mathematical." The Taiping Dao master said, "In the whole society, we will respect mathematics and give birth to countless mathematicians. We can iterate and evolve mathematics to construct a mathematical model for the whole society, and we can innovate according to different times!"
"But if the insect mother dies, wouldn't countless people have to be buried with you, the Taiping Dao? !"
"Each host that the insect mother contacts has a fixed number of people, and will not bring disaster to the world. And unless the insect mother gives the order, even if it dies, it will only be the poisonous insect that dies, not the host. "
"I have another question." Lin Chen said at the side, looking at the Taoist Taiping with an inexplicable look in his eyes, "No matter how good you say it is, the processing of these data will ultimately require a central hub."
"And the central hub is essentially you people. If that's the case, how can we use mathematics to govern the world?"
After these words came out, the Taoist Taiping, who was originally calm and composed, seemed to have a slight change in his expression.
He turned his head and looked at Lin Chen, and for the first time, there was a very light emotion in his tone: "You came down from the Taoist Zhongxuan Mountain, and you must have seen the truth behind the Taoist sect, right?"
"You mean, those computing arrays composed of human brains?"
"That's right. Then what kind of changes will happen when you see those brains that have been used for calculations countless times? "
"Individual consciousness will be completely wiped out, leaving only the ability to calculate and execute... Wait, you want to..." Lin Chen seemed to have thought of something, with a hint of shock in his pupils.
"That's right. Under the terrifying amount of data and huge brain power calculations, our emotions, memories, and even humanity will be slowly eliminated as time and calculations pass."
"In the end, all information belonging to people in our souls will be completely erased, leaving only mathematical calculations and information."
"This!" Xu Yue's face changed drastically, "Are you crazy? Are you destroying your own consciousness?!"
He finally knew why the people in front of him spoke like a piece of wood, because their self-consciousness was being constantly erased in the huge calculations!
"People's hearts are not trustworthy, and how many people can always keep their original intentions in the long years, so instead of gambling on this possibility, it is better to erase humanity directly. And for peace, this is a necessary sacrifice." There was no color in the eyes of the Taiping Daozhu.
"Did you know the consequences of this?" Lin Chen was silent for a while and asked softly.
"Everyone who becomes a high-ranking member of the Taiping Dao knows this before stepping onto this altar."
Xu Yue was so shocked that he could not speak, and Lin Chen also fell into a long silence.
By erasing the consciousness in the soul through a huge amount of calculations, and then iterating the algorithm through the mathematical creation of society, the high-ranking members of the Taiping Dao simply refined themselves into an artificial intelligence that can continuously evolve!
Then use this artificial intelligence to rule the entire dynasty.
This artificial intelligence will only follow the underlying algorithm, without emotions, no selfishness, and naturally will not have partiality and form a class.
Then use the sacrifices of generations of high-ranking members of the Taiping Dao to make it still a human soul, ensuring that it will not rebel.
Lin Chen really did not expect that he just wanted to make a martial arts golden elixir at the beginning, but he did not expect that the outstanding people of the Daqian Dynasty could rely on this inner elixir method to take a path beyond his expectations!
"Being erased bit by bit like this is a more cruel torture than any torture." Lin Chen sighed softly.
"The people of the world will gain eternal peace, and what we lose is only ourselves." The leader of the Taiping Dao looked forward, "For us, some things are more precious than life."
"But we don't know if what we did is right, so next, you should go."
"Hmm?" Xu Yue was obviously stunned.
Although he admired the other party's feat of self-sacrifice, he still couldn't agree with this plan. He had already made plans to fight, but he didn't expect that the other party was willing to let him go.
"We can't guarantee that our path is the right one. If it is wrong, coupled with the horror of this path, I'm afraid the whole world will be completely ruined, so we must leave enough variables." The leader of the Taiping Dao looked directly at the two.
"You people who practice the inner alchemy method are the biggest variables. If one day, our path is wrong, and you can take a more advanced path, you can overthrow us and open a new world."
"Then don't you care about your path being denied?!" Xu Yue said in astonishment.
"Our path is always for the eternal peace. Everything we do now, whether successful or not, can point the way forward for future generations."
"You..."
"Let's go." Before Xu Yue could say anything, Lin Chen took him away directly.
"Are we leaving just like that?! Then they..."
"This is the path they chose. Whether the future outcome is or not, perhaps they have already made plans to sacrifice." Lin Chen said with an inexplicable look.
But before leaving, Lin Chen couldn't help but turn around and look at the other person.
For the sake of all living beings in the world, open another road and seek the possibility of eternal peace, even if it means... losing yourself?
So there are such people in every world?
In the hall, the high-level leaders of Taiping Dao just stood there silently, without any expression on their faces, just quietly watching the two people leave.
There will be no expression on their faces, and in the future, they may even lose their memories.
But they still stand there quietly, like statues in the long river of history, and like a group of lonely, civilized watchers.
