Chapter 26 Reasonable or Unreasonable

Gao Yang lit a cigarette and explained to Lin Xian:

"If Argentina really beats the French team in the penalty shootout stage...then we can't buy lottery tickets for Argentina to win! We should buy a draw!"

"Why?" Lin Xian's eyes were clear and clueless.

"Is such that……"

Gao Yang danced and gestured:

"Football matches are divided into three parts: regular time, overtime, and penalty kicks."

“If there’s a winner in regular time, the game is over.”

"If the regular game is a draw, that is, the score is the same, then it will enter overtime to continue to decide the winner."

"Then if it's still a draw in overtime! Let's enter the penalty shootout and take turns taking penalty kicks until the winner is determined!"

"[And the standard for football lottery to determine victory or defeat is only based on the results of the regular time game!]"

Having said this, Lin Xian understood:

"I understand, since it has reached a penalty shootout, then all the previous games must be draws, so it is natural to buy a draw when buying lottery tickets."

Gao Yang gave Lin Xian a thumbs up:

"You learn so fast! You are really born to play football lottery! Come and buy some together! The odds of a draw are very high!"

"Buy some, brother! If you lose, it's mine, isn't it? I've made 70,000 or 80,000 from you before. This time, if you win, it's yours, if you lose, it's mine!"

Gao Yang forced Lin Xian to walk into the store.

In the end, Lin Xian bought a football lottery worth 30,000 yuan under Gao Yang's hard work and bought a draw between Argentina and France.

Lin Xian was not good at gambling, so he didn't want to buy so much. But Gao Yang took advantage of him, so Bawang took advantage of Lin Xian's phone and paid directly with his face.

Gaoyang Stud bought 60,000 yuan, and Lin Xian was forced to buy 30,000 yuan.

The odds of a draw are 3.7

In other words... if Argentina and France really tie in regular time, then Gao Yang can redeem the prize of 220,000 yuan, and Lin Xian can redeem the prize of 110,000 yuan.

…

3am.

The game started again with Lin Xian's yawns.

Argentina played hard.

A penalty was scored early in the game and then another goal later.

The game time came to 80 minutes, and Argentina led 2:0!

Gao Yang was sweating profusely:

"What's going on, Lin Xian, this is different from what was promised! Unless the French team has gods descending from the earth, how can it be possible for the French team to kick back two goals in ten minutes!"

However!

Gao Yang just finished speaking!

French team main player Mbappe scored a goal directly!

Before Gao Yang's howling could be heard from the window, Mbappe scored another goal!

Scored two goals in a matter of tens of seconds! Even cool football articles wouldn’t dare to write like this!

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!!!!"

Gao Yang once again transformed into a human mop, writhing on the floor like a maggot, mumbling words as if summoning some evil god, he couldn't even speak human words!

finally……

Argentina won the match on penalties.

Messi picked up the long-awaited Hercules Cup.

Gao Yang also raised the lottery ticket that won 220,000 yuan high and rushed towards Lin Xian——

"Father!"

"roll!"

…

There was a fight.

Gao Yang finally calmed down and began to analyze:

"Looking at it now...this dream of yours seems to be a bit abnormal! It would be nothing if it was a simple prediction that Argentina would win."

"However, you accurately predicted a draw in the regular period, a draw in overtime, and a penalty shootout to determine the winner..."

"Let me think about it."

Gao Yang was meditating there, and Lin Xian was also thinking with his chin in his hands.

at present.

[If you make a rough judgment, you can basically put it into practice now. Your dream is the real future world 600 years from now. 】

But he always felt that there was still a lack of conclusive evidence.

It is actually very logically imprecise to conclude that the dream is a real future world just by predicting the outcome of the football match accurately.

When I bought the lottery tickets just now, many golfers in the lottery shop said that they had made a fortune from gambling this year and had won several games in a row.

There is an old man who has even won the seventh prize in a row and is ready to pay the full price of Haval.

There are only three results in football lottery: victory, loss and draw.

Even pure fools have a chance of being fooled several times in a row. This is not ironclad evidence that the dream is the real future world.

"Actually, Lin Xian, I still can't believe that your dream is real."

Finally, Gao Yang raised his head and said seriously:

"Even if you predicted accurately three football games in a row, there were too many unreasonable phenomena in your dream. To be honest, it's hard for me to imagine that it was a real world."

"I remember you said that time in your dreams will never move forward? Will it always be fixed on the same day?"

Lin Xian nodded:

"Every time I dream, it's an exact same cycle... The person who died yesterday is still standing in the same place today; the friend who played well with me yesterday has completely forgotten everything today; the leaves fall forever It's always the same place...it's like watching a repeat movie every day."

"Actually, there are still many things about this dream that are unclear. For example, the level of technological development in the dream is almost the same as it is now in 2022. How to explain this? Do you believe that the future life in 600 years will be the same as now? It is the same?"

At this time, Gao Yang was also scratching his head and scratching his head.

"s! s!"

Gao Yang signaled Lin Xian to be quiet.

Then he ran into Lin Xian's bedroom and took out white paper and black pen:

"It's too messy, it's too messy... Let's straighten out our thoughts! Then we'll decide what's going on in your dream!"

"How?" Lin Xian stretched out his hand and asked.

Gao Yang handed Lin Xian a piece of paper and a pen and motioned for him to sit down:

"As you said, dreams are different from reality. Dreams do not need to be reasonable and orderly, but the real world is different! The real world must be reasonable, orderly, and real and deducible."

"So, now let's summarize the [irrational aspects of your dream] together! List them one by one!"

"If these unreasonable places really cannot withstand scrutiny, are self-contradictory, and cannot be logically consistent... then it can definitely be proved that your dream is just a dream! Everything is a coincidence!"

Lin Xian took the pen and nodded. It was indeed a good idea. This was also a kind of reverse reasoning.

"Okay, let each write his or her own thing, and then we will summarize it and discuss it later."

Lin Xian lowered his head and wrote the title on the white paper——

[Unreasonable phenomena in dreams]

…

After putting down the pen, Lin Xian felt as if he was inspired to write.

He had long felt that there were too many bugs in dreams, but he had previously thought that since it was a dream, it was not reasonable but very reasonable.

But now my thinking changes, if I want to connect the dream world with the real world...

Those unreasonable places are even more unreasonable!
