Cyber ​​Heroes

Chapter 10 Inner Home, Turing

"What?" After leaving the waste parts recycling bin at the east end of the town, Yuki became annoyed: "That old man!"

The waste parts recycling bin is actually a... more "public facility" thing.If you don’t need any used parts, you can stock them here, and if anyone is short of money, you can come here to get a few parts without charging.

The town will also entrust some people who have lost the ability to work to come here to maintain parts.These people either lost the prosthetic bodies used for labor, and didn't even have the credit to borrow money to buy them, or the biological brain damage was really serious, affecting their ability to move.

They are responsible for keeping the "barely usable" scrap iron with anti-rust oil and silica gel.

It's just that, just like Yuki's mother would store a pair of prosthetic hands for years, here, a part will not be sent here until the metal fatigue is close to the limit.

But Xiangshan does not need any very good parts.

These parts are not for his own use.He has other uses.

But they encounter unexpected entanglements.

An old man who was in charge of maintenance kept saying to Xiang Shan, "You are rich", and he didn't let go of Xiang Shan.This made it impossible for Xiang Shan to choose parts well.In the end, Xiang Shan had to choose a few brand new parts from the parts he just bought, and hand them over to several maintainers.

Those maintainers left happily holding screws, diodes and the like.

"Generally, you don't need money to come here for emergency!"

"Okay, Yuki, that was originally a bit of unplanned redundancy, used as a spare." Xiang Shan stopped Yuki.He wasn't very angry.In his opinion, this is the same as "giving wedding candies when you get married". Something good happened to him [at least everyone thinks it's a good thing], so it's not too much to let everyone share some joy.

It's just that the subjects have changed from children to a few old men who are about to degenerate into children.

The phrase "you are rich" even made him a little bit happy for a while.

"It seems that even in this day and age, people are still people..."

"What?" Yuki didn't know why.

"People are really complicated, they are good and they are evil, they are good and they are bad—sometimes I am really worried, I have slept for too long, and the people now are people I don't know...forget it , why am I telling you this?" Xiang Shan shook his head.

Up to now, human beings still show good intentions and bad intentions.That's fine.

Of course, a little "maliciousness" also exists.Thinking about it carefully, Dr. Schultz's attitude of asking him to go online... Could it be a kind of temptation?In this day and age, what do people who refuse to go online represent?

But this is not a big problem.

——Of course, this does not mean that he will forgive "true malice".

"Recalling what happened to me just now, I was really shocked." Xiang Shan mentioned another thing: "Yuki, do you remember? I didn't think about coming forward at first, but someone pushed me away. I went out. Did you see that man? Who was standing behind me?"

Even though he originally wanted to stand up, and even though the matter finally got a good result, it doesn't mean that he will forgive the person who pushed him.This nature is different.

The person who pushed him at that time had the idea of ​​killing him and put it into action.

Yuki slapped his face.Because Xiang Shan's defeat of the martial artist was so shocking that everyone forgot about it.

"I didn't see it." Yuki felt a little guilty, but his tone was still a little nervous: "Xiang Shan, what do you want to do... What do knights usually do at this time?"

"I'll tell you about this matter when I have a chance." Xiang Shan patted Yuki on the back: "Okay, good boy, go home now."

"Go home?" Yuki was stunned: "Where are you Xiangshan?"

"Of course I'm going to do my own thing." Xiang Shan said: "The next thing is not suitable for a good boy. You go home and sleep, and I will tell you the result tomorrow."

"No!" Yuki knew that Xiang Shan would definitely do what "Xia Ke" did, so where would he go at this time?

After being chased by Xiang Shan several times, Yuki didn't want to go home.Xiang Shan finally sighed, and said, "Forget it, anyway, I do plan to teach you something... I'll take you there. But later, you should talk less and read more, understand?"

Yuki nodded excitedly, and then asked strangely: "Xiangshan, don't you continue to organize your prosthetic body?"

"No need." Xiang Shan shook his head: "Although I really want to make a prosthetic body for myself quickly, there are more important things. And this thing can only be done outside the town - if you want to follow, Just pick up the parts for me."

The two soon came to a secluded place, which was their usual road to the garbage mountain, and no one would come at night.

The moonlight is extraordinarily bright tonight.Xiang Shan adjusted the lenses of his eyes, and suddenly discovered a remarkable thing.

He saw a line visible to the naked eye on the moon, much like a scratch on a doughnut.At the same time, within the halo of the moon, there appeared a thin line that was difficult to discern with the naked eye.

That's a very small ring.

Something happened on the moon that caused the entire lunar landscape to change, and even a little bit of material was torn from the moon's surface, forming a star ring with a weak sense of existence.

"Today I finally had the time to look at the moon. I didn't expect to see something amazing..." Xiang Shan's voice was once again unable to understand Xiang Shan's complex emotions: "I'm a little suspicious. I woke up after sleeping for many years. Or have you traveled directly to a parallel world..."

Yuki sat on the ground with his ass on the ground, and a lot of parts on his back made a clanging sound: "Xiang Shan, no matter what you want to do, there is no need to walk so far...I am very tired..."

Xiang Shan stopped and took a look.

This location is away from everything that looks like a signal base station, away from any possible hidden cameras.

well.

Xiang Shan silently took those waste parts from Yuki: "Yuki, remember what you see next, remember it with your biological brain, and don't forget it even if you die!"

Xiang Shan put the gears on the transmission shaft, and then put several transmission shafts on the discarded bracket of a certain mechanical tool to form the basis of a mechanical structure.Then, the gears mesh with each other, and the transmission shafts are interlaced with each other.

Yuki's eyes widened: "Xiangshan Xiangshan, what is this? It looks amazing..."

"Of course this is powerful." Xiang Shan stared intently at the instrument he was building, and the memories in his mind were constantly being aroused.

He is familiar with the structure.

"What the hell is this? Can it beat the bad guys?"

"Didn't I tell you? Pay attention." Xiang Shan scolded: "If you want to learn my skills, you must remember this."

Yuki pouted: "I don't even know what this is..."

Xiang Shan stopped working for a few seconds.

The man said solemnly: "Then, remember it well. This structure is called a 'Turing machine'."

Yuki looked at Xiang Shan's labor.

Xiang Shan assembled those waste parts into an extremely ugly and simple machine.It has no energy part, it is a gear structure, and friction will transfer kinetic energy from one gear to another... It even has a rocker handle as a power source.

Yuki scratched his head: "This is... what you let me remember?"

This thing is pretty ugly and simple, not to mention that in order for the gears to complete the last rotation, Xiang Shan used the lubricant given by all the old watchmen.This makes the thing look black and oily, which is extremely disgusting.

Xiang Shan nodded, and then turned the joystick by hand.

The kinetic energy transmitted by the hand changes direction and diverts through the gears, and is transmitted to the entire machine.

The sound of metal snapping and colliding...

Xiang Shan murmured: "This is it."

"Xiang Shan..." Yuki pointed out with embarrassment: "It looks like scrap iron."

Xiang Shan raised his head, stared at Yuki, and said loudly: "Its material is scrap iron, but its structure is not. You have to remember its name—Turing machine!"

The man's eyes fell on the machine again, and his tone became gentle: "It is the computer at the beginning of the primordial, the greatest product obtained by human beings in the process of studying mathematics, and the origin of all internal strength."

"'Inner Strength'?"

"All the martial arts you've heard of, including what you saw at the Paralympic Games, and what the dog and I used, are just foreign martial arts." Xiang Shan closed his eyes: "Of course, relatively, There are also 'internal exercises'."

"Outer martial arts are special tactics sublimated from the art of war. Internal martial arts are the product of the mutual improvement of intelligence and artificial intelligence."

"'Inner strength' was also called 'hacking technology' in ancient times. But those original hackers could not use biological brains to intuitively manipulate codes and computing resources like today's knights. They had to face the so-called 'screen ' output device, and then use the input device called 'keyboard' to interfere with that world - this is only at the level of a mortal. The "internal strength" of a knight is a hundred times more miraculous than that. But from the root, the internal strength is indeed An evolution of hacking techniques."

The relationship between hacker technology and chivalrous internal strength is like the first single-celled organism in the primordial ocean and the later higher organisms.Although the latter is mysterious and dazzling, it is always developed on the basis of the former.

"All internal strength is based on the power of computing machines, and all computers are derived from this great engineering structure..."

There was a hint of fanaticism in Xiang Shan's tone.

Turing machine.

In 1920, David Hilbert, the greatest mathematician in the world at that time, the leader of the Göttingen School, and the proposer of the famous "23 Questions", launched a charge towards the origin of "mathematics".He proposed the idea of ​​"metamathematics"—that is, "mathematics that studies mathematics."

As long as you master metamathematics, you have mastered all mathematics.

At the core of metamathematics are three topics—about completeness, consistency, and computability.

Completeness, all mathematical problems can be proved or falsified.

Consistency, all mathematical assertions, are either true or false, and there is no proof of contradiction that is both true and false.

Computability, all mathematical proofs, can be obtained by a feasible procedure and a finite number of operations.

As long as these three questions are answered, human beings can solve all mathematical problems with machines-the "ultimate answer" of mathematics is tantamount to falling into the hands of human beings.

All mathematicians in the world are obsessed with these three problems.

The Turing machine is an artifact that breaks these three problems.

This is a structure full of "wisdom".

Yuki applauds.Among the applause, there were three points of coping and three points of sincerity: "But Xiang Shan, what does this have to do with the 'internal strength' we are talking about..."

　There are many technical details in this chapter, which need to be studied carefully. I am sorry for the late update.
