The road to technology

Chapter 748 Representation Problems
There is no shortage of technological civilizations in the universe. Of course, Wushi has seen and learned about the means of those technological civilizations, especially the eternal kingdom of the Eternal Star Field. He has visited many times in the past and got what he wanted there.

So when Yue Yuanzhou mentioned the term parameter quantification, he recalled what he had seen and heard back then.He remembered that the equipment on the battleship of the Eternal Kingdom relied on piles of parameter data to operate. He said it was very accurate, but he thought it was all foreign objects.

Although there is value for reference, it is not his way.

Wushi thought for a moment: "Yes, yes, I naturally know such things as parameter quantification, and I also know what kind of expression you want, but it is really impossible to quantify it for a long time. 'Tao' is the most mysterious, mysterious and mysterious, 'I Dao' overwhelms 'all Dao', and 'My Dao' is also controlled by me, like an arm and a finger, all of which are observed and felt by the 'true self', how to quantify the feeling and perception?"

Having said that, Wushi picked up the teacup, put his finger on the bottom of the cup, stared at the tea inside, but didn't drink it.

I saw him pouring the teacup slowly, letting the tea flow from the mouth of the cup to the tea table, at the same time he continued to speak: "For this tea, do you think it was one drop or two, or a big drop?" , or a small drop, how much is considered large, how much is considered small, where is the limit of greater than small, all these can be classified. The same is true for the long river of time. It is invisible and qualityless, and it may be difficult to quantify.”

Yue Yuanzhou also picked up the teacup, but he drank it all in one gulp. He smacked his mouth, looked at Wu Shi, nodded and said: "Size, length, difficulty, etc., including the boundaries of macro and micro, it is really so difficult to express accurately. , so there is the saying that difficulty and easy complement each other, long and short complement each other, and existence and non-existence intergrow."

"But we can define it, just like a circle. How to make sure that the 'circle' I mentioned is really a 'circle', then we have to define the 'circle'. The "Mojing" says: a circle, a middle Same length."

He pointed to the tea and said: "And this tea is the same, words such as a drop of water are not very detailed, so such names are hardly used in rigorous scientific research.

But we can use other methods to define it. For example, we can use quantum mechanics to simulate every molecule in a water system, including every atom in the molecule and the quantum interaction of electrons. Starting from the static characteristics of molecules, we can also The molecular dynamics method is used to simulate the dynamic process of molecular vibration according to the electrostatic interaction between molecules.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, a molecular cluster composed of 21 water molecules basically matches the spectrum of a macroscopic drop of water. Therefore, if we want to use it, we can write the definition of a drop of water as composed of 21 water molecules, so that we can rule out Influenced by gravity and environmental factors. "

Yue Yuanzhou leaned his body forward, and continued: "Based on this, I think we can establish and define a space-time coordinate. This coordinate may not be fixed, or it may be based on itself, and based on this, the time and various parameters Quantify, and finally express it mathematically”

When it came to what he was good at, Yue Yuanzhou began to talk eloquently. In order to let Wu Shi understand what he meant, he also gave many examples.

He is not embarrassed by Wushi, he does not need Wushi to describe his feelings in detail, that is, he does not need to express them mathematically, but only needs to describe the laws of his feelings in detail.

Yue Yuanzhou is very confident in finding the similarities and differences from the laws, and expressing them mathematically.

Just like Faraday is not good at mathematics, so that he can only express it in words when he discovers the electromagnetic theory. It was not until Maxwell read his notes at last that he realized the great value of Faraday’s ideas, and finally used Faraday’s few notes in mathematics. Expressed in form, that is Maxwell's equations.

This is the process from text description to mathematical expression.

They all express the same thing.

Yue Yuanzhou believed that the so-called imperial scriptures and secret arts all used words to express the Tao, and there were always many subjective words in it, so the descriptions of the same 'Tao' were different.

If the earth revolves around the sun is a kind of 'road'.

Then, through observation, some people come to the conclusion that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, so he is in the foundation building period.Some people realize that the essence of the sun rising in the east and setting in the west is that the earth revolves around the sun, so their understanding of the "Tao" is deeper, and this person is practicing Qi several layers.

And that great power is that they already know how long it takes for the earth to orbit the sun, and they can even visualize the orbit of the earth orbiting the sun in their brains by observing the sunrise and sunset.

They can tell the distance between the earth and the sun at any moment, and they can also draw a sketch and use their own methods to indicate on the trajectory of the sketch the time corresponding to each point where the earth is.

As for the sayings and paintings, Yue Yuanzhou thinks they are the so-called preaching and writing into cultivation secret books.

Since there is no mathematics involved, there are bound to be a lot of subjective words in this kind of cheats, such as the curvature of a certain section of the elliptical orbit is straighter than the other end, and whether the earth is faster or slower when it moves to a certain position. fuzzy words.

This led to the fact that later people would see different things when they read their cheat books.

There is no such problem in mathematical expression, which is the benefit of quantification and definition.

Of course, Yue Yuanzhou is not saying that the cultivation side thinking is not good, he just understands the secret books and teachings on the cultivation side from his own standpoint.

In any case, he has been in contact with a lot of cultivation sides over the years, and this is the overall feeling for him.

The two continued to discuss this issue for a long time.

In the end, Wushi said that maybe only when he reaches the level of Immortal King or even Quasi-Immortal Emperor can he have a more detailed description.

There was nothing Yue Yuanzhou could do about it. In this time period of this universe, the most powerful thing he could find was Wushi.

You can't really wait for Wushi to cultivate to the quasi-immortal emperor, can you?At this moment, Yue Yuanzhou couldn't help asking himself.

It might take 10 years, but that's too long. Yue Yuanzhou can't wait that long. If there is this time, maybe the Shenzhou civilization has already researched it with its own method, so there is no need to be opportunistic.

Yue Yuanzhou even suspected that if he couldn't feel it, it was because his soul was not strong enough, or his way of thinking was wrong.

He thinks this way because in his impression, the soul or the soul is one of the shortcomings of technological civilization.

It doesn't make sense, the soul technology of the Shenzhou civilization can realize the materialization of the soul, and the form of dragon scales is one of the representatives.Moreover, he himself can perceive the approaching universe in the chaos, so it stands to reason that the strength should not be a problem.

It seems that the exploration of the long river of time really cannot be completed overnight.

In the end, Yue Yuanzhou shook his head, then stood up and faced Wu Shi, and said, "I plan to go to the Immortal Realm to find out. Although it is only a corner of the Immortal Realm, it is better than staying here. What do you think?"
