"Are you taunting me?" Annie listened to Richard and raised her eyebrows.

"No, I'm appreciating what you said." Li Cha shook his head. "I don't know if you realize that what you said is already philosophically thought. If you behave like this more than four months ago, Maybe I will take you as a student."

"Forget it, I don't want to be your student anymore." Annie said, "I just want to clarify my doubts than to become stronger quickly."

"I can't help you with this." Li Cha spread his hand. "What do you want to pursue, you have to ask your heart. In a sense, this world may be fake, everything outside is to you. The influence is superficial, and the answer given is naturally not true-the true answer depends on you to think and discover.

Have you heard of such a theory, there is a person called Descartes who thinks that the world we live in may be an illusion.

Just like illusions can confuse us, we may be in a huge illusion. All that we hear, see, and touch is false information that the illusion feeds back to us.The people we contact and communicate may be fake, and the body we have may be fake.

We are very likely, just one... the head, or even the brain, soaked in a large tank filled with liquid medicine.Descartes called this guess the brain in the tank."

Annie listened, her eyes wide, not sure if she understood or not.

Richard continued: "The most desperate thing about this speculation is that we cannot prove ourselves. Because everything we do and what we discover may be disguised. The only thing we can regard as true is Our thoughts, our hearts. It's like Descartes said'I think, so I am' - when we think about this, at least we can be sure that we exist as a thinking subject."

After Richard finished speaking, Anne remained silent for a while, and couldn't help but looked at Richard and asked, "Does all that you said help me?"

Richard said: "If you think it is helpful, it will be helpful. If you feel that it is not helpful, you should not have heard it. After all, according to the agreement we reached before, you help me find ore and collect information. I will help you solve some problems. The little problem I encountered was the equivalent exchange. I have saved you very well, and besides, I have no obligation to continue to help you.”

"you--"

Annie was a little angry. She raised her hand to lose her temper, and suddenly stopped again, realizing that she was no longer the elder lady who could lose her temper.

The hand stopped for a while in the air, slowly lowered, and Annie walked slowly out of the alley, while walking: "Well, you are right. You saved me this time, I owe you one Human relations, I will find a way to return it to you."

"Good." Richard said.

Annie walked continuously, walked out a few meters, stepped down, and turned her head to ask: "I am a little bit wanting to ask you now, if you follow the illusion of what you said before, what exactly have you been pursuing? You never doubt, you Is the pursuit wrong? After all, everything could be fake?"

"Actually, what I am after is how to distinguish between true and false."

"Huh?" Annie didn't understand.

"Imagine such a thing. There is a fish that has been living in a pond carefree. Suddenly one day, it was thrown into a completely strange wooden basin. If other fish encountered this situation, Some will accept everything slowly, while others will take the opportunity to dominate the king in the tub.

And this fish, it's a little special, very curious how it was thrown into the tub from the pond, want to see what the hand that manipulates it, want to see the world outside the pond and the tub is what.This is my pursuit."

Richard said slowly: "Only the true and false are determined, then the beautiful things are meaningful. As the saying goes,'beauty and truth are the same thing, so beauty itself must be true'."

"Ah?" Annie didn't understand at all.

Richard chuckled and didn't explain anymore, just said: "Well, what I am after is not important to you. What is important is what you want to pursue in your heart. If you really don't know, then I give you a kind reminder: make every effort to improve yourself, make yourself stronger, smarter, and better than now. If you continue this way, one day, you will know what you really want.

In this process, don’t do anything to slack off, and don’t stop for the pursuit of comfort and identity, then you will be quickly assimilated by your environment and the people around you.Really, you will lose all opportunities.If this world is really an illusion, then you will never be able to jump out."

This time Annie finally understood, pondered for a few seconds, thinking of something, and reached into her arms and pulled out a black metal cylinder.

The metal cylinder is about ten centimeters long and one centimeter in diameter. It looks extremely strong, and I don’t know what is inside.

Stepping closer to Richard, Annie said, "Well, anyway, I still want to thank you for your help. I know that I owe you a lot of affection, and I can't return it in a short time. Next , I may owe more. But, with this thing, I might be able to compensate some."

Talking, Annie unscrewed the cap on one end of the metal cylinder and poured out a slender turquoise ore.

As soon as the pale gray ore appeared, Richard immediately felt the weak erosive energy emitted by the ore, and no accident was radiation.

Is it raw material ore?

Li Cha raised his eyebrows, looked carefully, and glanced a few times to make sure that it was definitely not the uranium ore he had given to Anne before, but a brand new ore he had never seen before.

"Did you find the place of the ore that I asked you to find?" Li Cha asked with some surprise, which really surprised him.In his opinion, Annie would not find anything for years.

"No." Sure enough, Anne shook her head and replied, "I got this piece of ore unintentionally from a black market. There is hardly any information about where the ore came from. I wanted to get it completely. I’ll tell you later. But now that I owe you so much, it’s better to tell you earlier."

"Is that so?" Richard nodded. "Okay. Although you haven't found the specific origin of this ore, this news is indeed very good for me. So, continue to cheer, I look forward to you The day when the ore origin was actually found."

"Hopefully, goodbye." Annie responded.

Without any hesitation, he screwed up the lid of the metal cylinder, retracted his arms, and quickly left the alley.

Richard looked at the direction of Anne's departure, shook his head gently, and stepped forward to leave.

The right foot was raised, a breeze blew, and a voice rang from behind.
