Cyber Ghosts Chapter 53 Zhou Yuan's Soul Version of the Three Bodies

It was Friday night when we saw Zhou Yuan again. At noon, I knew that Zhou Yuan would be back from Hangzhou in the afternoon. I discussed with Liu Shuai, and we decided to have dinner together with him and asked him about his situation. This time, we had learned a lesson. We found a private room in the restaurant, so that Zhou Yuan would not make troubles with his words again.

Liu Shuai was very happy to see Zhou Yuan, and he briefly talked about what happened at the Dragon King's Temple. This was not surprising, after all, since that was his show time. I saw how excited Liu Shuai was from his words, so I helped him make some complementations.

"So, Sister Lan is dead?" Zhou Yuan drank a mouthful of Ju Pu. He did not mind Liu Shuai's description of him as being extremely skilled in magic techniques. He just lightly asked this question.

Ju Pu, as the name implied, was the tea brewed with Pu'er and the chrysanthemum flowers. This kind of tea was common in restaurants in S City.

"How come you call her Sister Lan?" Liu Shuai was not happy for his "great achievement" being ignored. When he heard Zhou Yuan calling "Sister Lan", he could not help but cry out. Anyway, no sound would peak out of this private room. "Look how hard she hurt you."

"She did not actually hurt me." Zhou Yuan looked at Liu Shuai and laughed, "I've been thinking about it for these few days. Other than not telling me that I need to lose my soul in order to improve my working ability, she didn't do anything else to me. Thinking about the actions I usually heard, like ones who hurt others behind their backs, ones who maliciously hurt others, and ones who betrayed their words, Lan Ruo," Zhou Yuan raised his hands and turned around, "She did not cause any harm, nor did she take my money. She is much better than those villains."

"But she indirectly caused so many injuries to your body." I remembered that Zhou Yuan showed us the numerous scars on his body. "Although she did not do it on herself, she was still the main culprit."

"This is my own experiment after I found out I could control the pain, and it shouldn't be her fault." Zhou Yuan prepared to lift up his clothes to look at his wounds, but Liu Shuai and I immediately stopped him, signaling for him to speak. "Just like you guys said, A Zhe and Ye's bodies are fine, right?"

"But their souls were taken away. Do you think that it makes sense for two people who don't have their own souls fall in love?" Liu Shuai frowned. He obviously could not agree with Zhou Yuan's viewpoint.

"According to your descriptions, they broke up due to personalities but still loved each other after that, and that's why sis — Lan Ruo got the chance to take their souls." Zhou Yuan wanted to use "Sister Lan", but he switched to "Lan Ruo" when he looked at Liu Shuai, "If Lan Ruo doesn't come out, then they would no longer fall in love, or maybe they could just force themselves to live together but fight until their last days. Will that make them happy?"

Liu Shuai and I were stunned for a moment. After we carefully thought about his comment, we found some reasons in it.

"Let's change our hypothesis again," Zhou Yuan said as he ate some food. "If A Zhe didn't lose his soul, and only Ye lost her soul, and she did it voluntarily, while A Zhe would never figure it out in his entire life. Because of the change in Ye's body, the two of them could live happily for a lifetime. Would that be happier for them than to fight for a lifetime?"

"Err …" I felt that Zhou Yuan was implying something crooked, but for a moment, I couldn't think of anything to refute him, but I disagreed with him though, so I said, "But if it's like that, then the Ye that A Zhe would love for his lifetime would be a fake flesh body, not Ye's soul."

"You're wrong. Body is real, as for the soul," Zhou Yuan looked at me and laughed, "A few weeks ago, Hao Ning, did we believe that there were souls in this world? Liu Shuai, you believe in it, and you have great mana." Zhou Yuan looked at Liu Shuai, who could not help but nod his head, "But you are only a programmer in our company. When you are not writing codes, would you tell everyone that people's souls in this world can be taken away by others?"

Liu Shuai was startled, and immediately shook his head, "Of course not, I will be laughed by others for doing what you call high-tech work, while talking about matters of the gods and ghosts. They'll call me a freak."

"That's right," Zhou Yuan nodded in agreement, "Even you won't tell others, so those people outside ——" Zhou Yuan pointed towards the door, "Including A Zhe, how could they possibly know and agree that Ye doesn't have a soul? Think about it, Liu Shuai, if someday you walk on the road and see A Zhe who has a soul walking around while hugging Ye who does not have a soul, and you tell A Zhe that his girlfriend doesn't have a soul, what would he do?"

"I think he'll kill me." Liu Shuai rubbed his forehead and laughed bitterly.

"Exactly, have you all read the Three Bodies?" Zhou Yuan suddenly asked us, as if he had thought of something.

"Three Bodies? Is it the masterpiece of Liu Cixin? " I thought for a moment. "I probably read it before, but I don't have a deep impression of it."

"I read it on the way to Hangzhou. It was written very well." Zhou Yuan pondered for a while and continued, "There is a theory of the universe's chain of suspicions, which is very suitable to explain this issue. The chain of suspicions refers to different civilizations in the universe. Since they cannot determine whether other parties are good or bad, nor could they figure out if other parties consider them to be good or bad, or if they know whether other parties consider them to be good or bad, this way the only reasonable way to survive is to eliminate other parties."

When Zhou Yuan said this, I seemed to have some impression. Liu Shuai nodded and said, "I seem to have heard about this theory before. Hawking does not recommend humans to look for aliens either, but what does this have to do with souls?"

"People don't know if they have souls, nor do they know if others people have souls. They don't know if other people knows whether they have souls, nor do they know if the other person knows that they have figured out whether other parties have souls," Zhou Yuan said a long paragraph, "So the only reasonable way — —"

"To eliminate others?" Liu Shuai looked like he was about to faint from being circled around by Zhou Yuan. After hearing what Zhou Yuan had said, he subconsciously said it out and startled himself, "How is that possible? That means massacre, doesn't it?"

"Of course it's impossible." Zhou Yuan said calmly. "The only logical thing to do is to ignore the matter of existence of soul. Everyone should live in an objective world and see only what they can see. If a couple always guesses if the other person has a soul, there would be problems sooner or later. "

"Hahaha, I'm not sure if they would guess if the other person has a soul," I couldn't help but laugh when I heard Zhou Yuan's words, "But I'm sure that their relationship won't last if they always guess if the other party has a fair."

After Liu Shuai heard this, he could not help but laugh.

"That's right, it's not a bad thing to be stupid." Zhou Yuan nodded. "For example, Li Long Fei is really stupid. He's probably been cheated and is still waiting for someone to rebuild his golden body and increase his donations."

"Pardon?"Since it was strange that Zhou Yuan suddenly brought up this matter, Liu Shuai could not help but ask, "How could he be cheated? A Zhe is very serious. He kept kowtowing the entire time. "
