The apprentice wizards around the bonfire looked up at Ace, who was floating in midair with their hands up, feeling excited.
Arnold stood up directly and said loudly: "Although I didn't understand what reality is and what is perception, I am willing to hold the torch high, and I want to be the next flame carrier!"
Ollie blushed, she understood a little bit and some did not understand, but she knew that Arnold must not understand, she quickly pulled Anuo down, and whispered: "Brother Arnold is a big fool! I have thoroughly studied elementary mathematics, let's talk about whether you can spread the fire!"
The other apprentice wizards also became excited. They were in agitated mood. They were a group, the fire of the flame spreader, and the next flame spreader!
Warren frowned. He thought for a long time, stood up, bowed to Ace, and asked, "Respected flame-spreader, how can I think correctly and rationally?"
Ace looked at Warren with admiration, likes to ask questions, likes to think, and does not follow blindly, this is an excellent quality.
He did not rush to answer, quietly waiting for everyone to calm down, and after waiting for everyone to think, he said:
"We assume that the world is a cave-like cave. Only a long passage connects the outside world, so that weak light enters the cave.
Some prisoners have lived in the cave since they were young, with their heads, necks, legs and feet tied up, unable to move or turn their heads, and could only look forward to the walls of the cave.
Above their backs, a torch was burning, and there was a road and a wall between the torch and the prisoners.
And behind the wall, facing the fire, there are some other people. They hold various dolls and make people perform various actions.
When these prisoners saw the images projected on the wall in front of them, they mistakenly regarded these images as real things.
At this time, a prisoner was lifted from the shackles. He stood up and looked around and walked out of the cave. Then he discovered the truth of things. It turned out that all he saw was an illusion, and there was a bright world outside.
So he didn't want to live such a dark life anymore, and wanted to rescue his companion. "
Ai Si quietly told this story about the cave and the torch, looked at the people in front of him, and asked: "How do you think his companions will treat him? How do you treat the first person who sees the'real'?"
Arnold stood up and said: "They will definitely respect him and let him lead the remaining prisoners to the bright world!"
The other apprentice wizards were thinking, but did not immediately answer.
Bayern is thinking in his heart, thinking outside the story, it seems to be what Arnold said, but what if he is a prisoner?
From birth, they can't walk or turn their heads, can only look at the walls of the cave, can only look at the images on the walls, then they know that the images are all!
Will they really trust a partner who breaks all their cognition?
"The other prisoners in the cave will not trust this prisoner who sees the light world. They will not trust him. If that prisoner tries to rescue other prisoners, his life may even be in danger!"
"Because those prisoners have not seen the truth, they live in a falsehood, they can only see what the cave shows to them! They are people without thinking!"
Bayern stood up and said categorically.
Ace, suspended above the bonfire, looked at the decisive Bayern with some relief.
He said softly: "The prisoners not only didn't believe every word he said, but felt that he ran up there, and when he returned, his eyes were burned by the sun, and he could not recognize the "images" as before. .
Since they didn't want to leave the world they were already familiar with, they killed this kind man. "
"In reality, we may also be in this cave, in ignorance. If the truth that someone tells us subverts our cognition, what will we do?"
A group of apprentices fell into contemplation. If someone completely subverted their perceptions in reality, what would they do and what would they do?
"Decades ago, in the northern city of Milne, the Pythagorean school was very popular! Their cornerstone theory was Pytha's "The ratio of any two line segments can be expressed by the ratio of two integers."
Everyone has learned elementary mathematics and knows that counting is not only integers and fractions, but also irrational numbers and even more expansion. The apprentices talked a lot, and it was hard to believe that someone used this theory as a cornerstone.
"You may find it unbelievable, but in the view of the Pythagorean school, that is the reality of the mathematics world. Later, an apprentice of the Pythagorean school, named Hibbs, discovered that the extension of Pythagorean theorem is a+b= c, suppose a=1, b=1, because a+b=c then c=2.
If you have studied elementary mathematics, you all know that c=√2 is an infinite non-recurring decimal. But for the believers of the Pythagorean school, this broke their understanding of numbers, so they drowned Hebers! "
"The Pythagorean school is so stupid!"
"Someone regards fallacy as truth!"
"They are the prisoners in the cave!"
A group of apprentices talked a lot, and Wallen was still thinking seriously about the relationship between "cave metaphor" and "new number killing" and correct thinking and rational cognition.
He seemed to have caught something, but after thinking about it, he didn't catch anything.
"My apprentices, if one of you one day claims that the current cornerstone system of magic, the magic power-magic element-rune-spell model system is not correct, this system is completely wrong, what would you think?"
Ace asked leisurely while floating in the air.
The bonfire has gradually gone out, the sun has gradually risen, and the east is white.
The apprentices were in an uproar. They had just stepped into the door of the magic road, staggering along the magic-magic-rune-spell model road research ~ EbookFREE.me~ this road is so charming, How could it be wrong to give them extraordinary power?
"The magic-magic element-rune-spell model is a true summary of the extraordinary phenomena in this world. It may be imperfect, but it cannot be wrong!"
"It is hard to imagine that this path will be wrong. If it is wrong, why can it give us extraordinary power!"
Doubts and surprises flashed through Warren's eyes, could it be said!
"My apprentices, this is a cognitive disorder. If one day, all wizards, including me, will unanimously oppose this question, then we will become prisoners of the cave and believers of the Pytha school!"
"Correct thinking and rational cognition require us not to be superstitious in authority, and always maintain an objective and neutral mode of thinking and research spirit!"
"As long as we always maintain an objective and neutral research spirit and do not believe in authority, we wizards will be a group of thoughtful people, and we are the yardstick of everything!"
The long night is over, dawn is breaking in the east, and the sun is rising!
