Fruit.
Xi Ming didn't keep the secret and continued directly:
"The answer is unexpected, it's the former—"
"That is, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the two keys and the two locks."
"Key A can only open lock A, and key B can only open lock B."
"But the amazing thing is——"
"Before the master verified this, in all the lock-picking processes, he had never encountered a situation where he accidentally used key A to open lock B and ended up not being able to open the lock."
"Just after he verified this 'fact'..."
"When you go to randomly open a lock again, you will encounter a situation with normal probability where someone accidentally uses key A to open lock B and fails to open it."
So having said this, what Xi Ming wants to express is very clear.
There is a difference in probability before and after.
An event with a small probability that is almost impossible to happen occurs before "verification".
After the “verification” result, the probability returns to normal.
To be honest, this thing is quite mysterious indeed.
But it's not completely impossible.
Because even the most unlikely event can still happen as long as it is not completely impossible.
For example, if you toss a coin 10,000 times, it will land on heads 10,000 times.
The probability is very small indeed.
But according to the infinite monkey theorem, as long as the number of experiments is large enough, even the smallest probability event will occur.
Therefore, from the perspective of probability, the story described by Xi Ming is not metaphysical.
But a...logical...miracle?
However, he did not tell this story when he was talking about the so-called "fortune-telling and metaphysics".
So, we are not just analyzing the probability.
What he wants to express is actually not difficult to understand.
Two keys and two locks.
The huge difference in unlocking probability before and after "verifying" whether the relationship is one-to-one...
Obviously, Xi Ming wanted to attribute the difference in probability before and after to the master's "verification" action.
This whole "true story" and what Xi Ming wanted to express.
In fact, it can be compared to a more familiar theory:
When the master opens the box, he "verifies" the cat's life and death "before and after".
The cat's condition has changed.
right.
The story described by Xi Ming is actually very similar to Schrödinger's cat.
The master verified the relationship between the key and the lock and came to a definite conclusion, just like opening the box containing the cat and determining whether the cat is alive or dead.
The general perception among the general public is that -
The cat's life or death is determined before the box is opened.
If the cat is dead, you will see a dead cat when you open the box;
If the cat is alive, you will see a live cat when you open the box.
In fact, the life or death of a cat is determined by the act of unboxing.
Similarly, the relationship between the two keys and the two locks is also determined by the master's "verification" action.
Obviously, Xi Ming particularly emphasized the word "verification".
Combined with the question he just answered Jiang Yi - what is numerology and metaphysics.
The answer he gave was - I don’t know.
So the "not knowing" here is a state.
In other words—
What is numerology and what is metaphysics?
If you don’t know the principles of destiny, then it is destiny;
Not knowing metaphysics is metaphysics.
I don’t know, I don’t know…
Jiang Yi pondered these two words over and over again, feeling a little dazed.
He thought of Chi Su uncontrollably.
Thinking of Chi Su's retreat from the world and her renunciation from the world, thinking of Chi Su's "fate"...
Thinking about everything he had experienced in this era one hundred thousand years ago.
He seemed to be able to draw a conclusion vaguely -
Fate is not destined...
Unless you stop participating, observing, and verifying...
In other words,
