Artificial intelligence, a myth in the computer industry, is a dream pursued by scientists from all over the world.

Memory replication, a sci-fi concept presented in movies such as "The Sixth Day" and "The Matrix".

Are robots alive?A topic explored in many films...

But what Ye Feng wanted to figure out was another thing.

"What is human consciousness?"

Or,

"What form does human consciousness exist in?"

To be more clear, Ye Feng has been working on one thing these days - trying to create a "life body" with autonomous consciousness.

Ye Feng had thought about how to make the substitute have self-awareness as early as when he created the substitute technique.He tried to instill his ideas into the substitute's brain, but the substitute has never formed self-awareness, and is still like a dead thing.

In Sendai, Japan, Ye Feng temporarily created a giant war beast, which also has no autonomous consciousness.But Ye Feng noticed a detail - give the war behemoth a beast's brain, and it will have the instinct of a beast.

Ye Feng has been thinking: if he creates a substitute with a brain that is exactly the same as that of a human, will the brain of this substitute have the learning ability of a human?

Ye Feng has been trying this hypothesis for the past few days.

He secretly controlled the plants and built a cultivation bag underground in a park one kilometer away, creating an unprecedented high-simulation double.

Ye Feng did not make a stand-in according to his own appearance, but made that stand-in by referring to the body structure of a guard outside the door—because Ye Feng's mental power could not effectively see his own brain structure, he had to choose one who had no resistance guards for reference.

However, as soon as the production started, Ye Feng suddenly stopped——

"No. Why don't I make it like a child? It won't arouse suspicion at all."

So Ye Feng looked for a six-year-old boy as a reference.Changed his face slightly.Recreate the alias.

This time, it was so accurate that every cell was exactly the same, even the length and size of the cells were exactly the same.

The cells that make up the substitute are no longer plant cells, but Ye Feng's body cells. Each cell has a complete set of Ye Feng's genes. To be precise, this substitute is Ye Feng's "clone".

The cells of Ye Feng, who fused two "unknown germs", were extremely active.It greedily absorbs the nutrients in the plant tissue fluid, continuously splits, proliferates, differentiates, and finally forms a complete human form.

With the "carrier", Ye Feng tried to stimulate this body to see how to make him have a sense of autonomy.

"By the way, I can simulate the situation of a baby in the womb!"

Thinking of this, Ye Feng secretly sent a tablet computer to the location of the training package, and carefully selected various video clips of family life.Play it to the clones.

After a few days, the clones responded.In response to the stimulation of sound, there is a faint spiritual force looming in the brain.

"It's interesting. What should I do next? Well, I have to find a 'parent' for him..." Ye Feng scanned the nearby residential houses more than ten kilometers away and found a suitable candidate. "Yes, it's her, so choose this one."

The surface of the culture bag that wrapped the clone changed, and six spider-like legs stretched out, drilling out from the soil.Taking advantage of the cover of the night, he crawled for several kilometers and fell into a dilapidated courtyard.

"Wow~Wow~"

The cry of the baby broke the silence of the night.

......

Lao Yu is a well-known honest man in the family affairs village.

The son took his wife to work outside, leaving only his wife and eight-year-old granddaughter to depend on each other.

In the middle of the night, a strange thing happened in his house. Someone lost a child at the door, which woke up the whole village in the middle of the night.

Later, the villagers knew why the child was abandoned: the child looked four or five years old, could not speak, was an idiot, no wonder he was abandoned.

Someone suggested calling the police, so Lao Yu called the police.But this kid has to be taken care of before he finds his parents again, right?Is it impossible to live in a police station with a group of old men?So the kind old Yu volunteered to take in the baby.It happens that there are few people in the family, so add some excitement.

Lao Yu gave this baby a name: Bai Bai.His eight-year-old granddaughter prefers to call him "Xiaobai".

The reason is that this baby's skin is really good, white and tender, just like a baby under the age of [-].

Bai Bai looked four or five years old, but behaved like a newborn baby.Can't speak, urinates everywhere, stuffs whatever they grab into their mouths when they're hungry...Old Yu and the old couple once again experienced the life of pulling their children by handfuls of feces and urine, which was both hard work and joy.

"Baibai, it's time to eat." The eight-year-old granddaughter is usually responsible for looking after the child when the two elders are away or busy with housework. It is the first time for the little girl to take care of someone.

In the beginning, Bai Bai was dazed and silly, behaving similarly to ordinary mentally handicapped children.

But gradually, Lao Yu's family discovered that he was not the case: this kid is smart here.

Not long after, there was aura in a pair of dull eyes.I can understand people's speech and know how to go to the toilet.He can laugh, be curious, frown, and babble some simple syllables to communicate with his family.

As a little girl of left-behind children, Yu Meimei, teaching Bai Bai to speak after school every day has become his greatest pleasure.Bai Bai is very smart, and he learned to speak in less than a week, which surprised Lao Yu and his wife.

The police came twice during the period, but they never found Bai Bai's parents. After registering the child's information, the child temporarily stayed at Lao Yu's house.After all, sending such a child to an orphanage is a big problem—Old Yu will stop doing this, and it will be fine if he goes to an orphanage. The child will suffer a lot.Looking at the chubby, white boy, Lao Yu was overjoyed. He and his wife had always wanted a grandson, thinking that maybe it was specially given to him by heaven.So he resolutely left the child.

To be honest, it would be best for Lao Yu to hope that the children's parents would not show up, but sometimes he felt that his thoughts were unkind.Oh, it's really confusing. (But I don't know that the child's 'parents' have been watching him secretly)

"Xiaobai, let's go, my sister will take you to catch fish today." Yu Meimei came back from school excitedly.

"Sister, what is catching fish?" Bai Bai asked foolishly.

"It's the delicious, crunchy food you ate last night. Let's go to the stream to catch the fish and make it delicious."

"What's a creek?"

"Oh, you'll know when the time comes. Xiaobai, why are you always so foolish and like to ask questions?" Meimei smiled and rubbed the little boy's chubby, soft face with both hands, thinking of her younger brother's What a fun face.

"Hehe." Seeing her sister laughing, Bai Bai smirked too.The little boy was not clear about his origin, and always thought that he was originally a member of this family.

At the beginning, Bai Bai could not walk, only crawled.After arriving at Lao Yu's house, he learned to walk in a few days, and he could run in a week.At this time, Meimei likes to take him to play outside the village, catching fish, catching clouds, roasting sweet potatoes, digging peanuts, picking wild flowers...etc. It's like running around with her faithful little follower go.

When she came to the stream, Meimei took a long fishing net and stretched it under the aquatic plants to catch fish again and again, chatting about some small fish and shrimp.Not satisfied with this harvest, Meimei walked down the stream and came to a small pond downstream.Meimei saw several palm-sized crucian carp swimming leisurely in the pond.

"Xiaobai, look!" Meimei triumphantly raised her fishing net, saw a crucian carp swimming in front of her, and slammed into the net.

Whoa!

When the net came out of the water, there were only a few aquatic plants, Meimei curled her lips depressedly, and said in her heart: "I don't believe it."

Seeing the opportunity, he shot again, thinking he had caught it, but the net was still empty.The younger sister's determination to refuse to admit defeat was born, and she concentrated on attacking again and again.

"Ah!" Suddenly, Meimei screamed, she stepped too far, the edge of the ridge collapsed, and her feet fell into the water.

The pond was much deeper than it looked. It would be fine for an adult to fall into it, but for a little girl who is only 1.2 meters tall, the depth is enough to submerge her.

"Cough, cough, help—" Meimei choked on the water and thrashed in panic, she couldn't swim!

Bai Bai watched Meimei "playing" in the water curiously on the shore, and asked stupidly: "Sister, what's wrong with you? Is it fun in the water?"

"Xiaobai, cough cough, save me quickly, cough cough, help me!" Meimei sank in the water and popped up again, choked to tears, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"It's strange that my sister looks in pain. Okay, I'll go down and play too." Bai Bai tilted his neck and thought for a while, and then jumped into the water like this.

"Ahem, it's so uncomfortable, it's not fun at all...Ahem, I feel like I'm dying...Strange, what is death? Why do I have a strange feeling... "Bai Bai jumped into the water and followed in Meimei's footsteps, he also doesn't know how to swim.In other words, he didn't know what water was at all.He had a bad feeling in his heart.

Just when Bai Bai felt that he was about to die (although he did not understand the meaning of "death"), his body was suddenly pushed by something.

Whoa!

Two young drowning victims were thrown ashore, coughing violently and spitting out puddles of water.

"Ahem... Phew, oh my god, grandpa will definitely kill me if he knows this! Xiaobai, are you stupid! Why did you jump down!"

"Oh, I see that you are playing very interestingly, and I want to play too."

"Uh--you melon seller, let me die... You must not tell your grandparents what happened today when you go back, do you know?"

"Oh."

Meimei breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the muddy pool with lingering fear, and muttered: "It's strange, how did I get up? I feel like I was pushed by someone..."

There was no one in the pool, Meimei looked at Bai Bai, who stared at the pool stupidly. (To be continued..)

ps: I plan to create an awesome clone of the little kid, cute babies are very popular recently......
