Chapter 879: Future Emotional World

~6 min read 1,186 words

Just find a partner, isn't that enough?

Yang Qing's words are always so unexpected.

Although it sounds off at first, upon careful thought it actually makes a lot of sense.

The world is eliminating the value of marriage, so why are we still so obsessed with it?

Li Xueqin was stunned by Yang Qing's words.

Is this something an old person should say?

"Yang Lao, although what you say sounds reasonable, wouldn't this overlook humanity's emotional needs too much?"

"In the human world, family has always been a very important emotional reservoir."

"Fatherly love, motherly love, sibling affection, marital affection, parent-child affection."

"Would a world without marriage to carry emotions be too desolate?"

"Moreover, without marriage as an anchor, the feelings between men and women could also become extremely fragile."

"Furthermore, without family nurturing, many human emotions could also gradually fade away."

"Would a society of emotional indifference be too cold?"

She still sees problems very accurately.

Faced with this series of questions, Yang Qing fell silent.

To be honest, he has no answer, but this is indeed a trend.

So he looks quite lost.

"To be honest, I can't give you an answer, but this is a social trend."

"Have you read the Buddhist, Daoist, Confucian classics and so on?"

"They pursue an alternative emotional reliance, such as great love, like-minded affection, or like immortals severing love and affection."

"Perhaps in the future, humanity's spiritual pursuit will be like that."

"But there is another possibility: in the future, a subject of emotional education will appear, and by then there should be virtual worlds, that kind of extremely realistic virtual game."

"People can enter the game to experience genuine emotions."

"Buddhism and Daoism have the concepts of entering the world and transcending the world."

"When the time comes to enter the virtual world, how is that not entering the world?"

"After a full experience, exiting the virtual world, how is that not a form of transcending the world?"

"Humanity will always find a way out."

"As for the present, it's a transitional period; we can only let things take their natural course."

"After all, people nowadays are still very attached to marriage."

Yang Qing's answer is not complete, but it does give a direction.

Li Xueqin reluctantly accepted this answer.

"Yang Lao, I roughly understand now."

"History will gradually reconcile and self-heal."

"Thank you, Yang Lao, for clearing up my doubts."

"I'm glad to have the opportunity to discuss such issues with you."

"I wish you all the best."

"Then goodbye, Yang Lao."

We were chatting so well, why are you leaving?

Yang Qing was a bit addicted, showing reluctance.

"I also wish you happiness and fulfillment; chatting with you has been delightful."

The voice call ended.

But the conversation between the two deeply affected the people in the Live Broadcast Room.

"What are they discussing? I can't quite understand."

"Is what Yang Lao saying that in the future we won't need boyfriends or girlfriends, and if we have needs we can enter the virtual world to experience all kinds of…"

"Yeah, yeah, with 2D characters, who needs real people anyway."

"Wahaha, that would mean we could have anything we want… drooling…"

"Hehehe, does that mean we women can also customize boyfriends?"

"Damn, damn, brothers and sisters, if the virtual world and artificial robots and whatever artificial…"

"It's a closed loop, brothers— the future is just too awesome."

"What marriage? What family? In the future we won't need any of that…"

"I say, what they're discussing must be the spiritual world, right? You guys…"

"The upstairs guy has a screw loose— you dare say I and Cang Jie have no feelings?"

"I only hate that current technology isn't up to par, yet we have to talk about feelings here, it's too costly…"

………

…………

The building is getting more and more crooked, but netizens always find the highlights.

Yang Qing almost got convinced by them— it really is a closed loop; virtual worlds plus robots can actually perfectly solve emotional problems.

"Although it all seems fake, nowadays people can develop feelings with dogs, and with robots and virtual humans, so what's impossible about that?"

It's quite harmonious.

Moreover, with many messy things gone, this feeling becomes even purer.

Yang Qing also felt that the future was pretty cool.

Seeing there was still time, continue the connection.

Yang Panpan is now very professional; a glance from Yang Qing and she understood what he meant.

Soon the voice call connected.

Deng Hai is an HIV carrier.

He was infected by his girlfriend, and his girlfriend was infected by a black guy.

He hated, wanted to kill her; he was ruined, ruined for life.

He had made a voice call request just playing around, never expecting it to actually connect.

Looking at the already connected voice call on his phone, he still couldn't quite believe it.

Yang Qing waited a long time but couldn't hear the other party's voice.

"Hello, may I ask if you're there?"

"Is the signal bad?"

"Speak!"

"Hello... "

"If you don't speak, I'll hang up......"

Deng Hai was startled awake by Yang Qing's words and quickly spoke up.

"Hello, Yang Lao, I am.........."

He realized he couldn't give his name; if he did, he would likely be blocked by the AI and then banned.

"I am very happy to have the opportunity to ask you for advice."

Having said that, he fell silent for a moment, then continued.

"Hello, Yang Lao, actually I am an HIV-infected person."

Yang Qing also didn't expect to have connected with a special group.

"Ah! Please continue."

Deng Hai didn't feel any discrimination from Yang Qing, so he relaxed a bit.

"Yang Lao, I was infected by my girlfriend."

"And she was infected by a black guy."

"In other words, I not only got cheated on, but also got screwed over badly."

"Yang Lao, I am so angry, so desperate......"

"You say the government, why does it allow people like us to come out and harm society?"

"I feel that people like us should be widely publicized, so that everyone can stay far away."

"Truly a scourge."

"This kid is a bit extreme."

"Young man, relax, relax; maybe it's not as serious as you think. How long have you been infected? Any treatment?"

Deng Hai.

"I've been infected for half a year, and now I'm taking medicine."

Yang Qing nodded.

"Having started treatment is good; although I don't know much about this, now it's the internet age, and since there isn't much coverage on this, I believe this disease shouldn't be as severe as you imagine."

"How about this: I really don't know much about this; how about we connect with a professional?"

Deng Hai.

"Okay, Yang Lao."

"What can he say? They don't understand; he can't force them to give him answers."

"The other party agreed, and Yang Qing started looking for someone."

"Friends who applied for the connection, help out, pause a moment; let's invite a professional, I really don't know much about this."

"Best if it's an expert, who can clear up this young man's doubts."
