Age of the Mist

Chapter 100 Suffocating Generations
"me…"

"You don't agree? You don't believe it?" Liu Qigang pointed to the plate in front of Si Chongtian: "You first try this piece of meat."

"Meat?" Si Chongtian picked up a piece of meat strangely and looked at it: "It's nothing special, I'll try it, um, it's delicious... Wait, what the hell is this!"

Si Chongtian's expression changed, and he looked at the meat on the plate in disbelief, as if he saw some monster: "Is this thing really meat?"

"Yes, no. There are roughly two kinds of meat in the world. One is cultured meat, which is the kind you usually eat. The other is artificial meat, which is the kind in front of you. Artificial meat is cheap and tastes good. There are all kinds of delicious food. But the biggest difference between artificial meat and farmed meat is that it can only restore physical strength to maintain health, but it contains very little essence.”

Liu Qigang spoke in a succinct manner, and Shi Tiexin listened silently, suddenly realizing it in his heart.No wonder it was so difficult to cultivate the power technique by himself, no wonder he was like a chariot when he was in Fengming No. [-] High School, so that was the reason.

Papa, a few stars appeared, and the natural history progress bar was extended because of Liu Qigang's words!

"Oh, I said why do you think this meat is wrong." Si Chongtian nodded ignorantly: "Uncle Liu means, are the hardworking people actually eating this kind of artificial meat?"

"That's right. You can eat real meat so often that you don't even know there is artificial meat, but that doesn't mean everyone can do it. You can break through at a young age, it doesn't mean everyone can do it. Others want to work hard, too. But with the same effort and the same effort, the effect is completely different from yours." Liu Qigang stared at Si Chongtian: "Then guess, why can't the untouchables eat real meat?"

Si Chongtian scratched his head: "Because there are more people and less flesh..."

"That's right, there are more people and less flesh. There are nearly 1000 billion people in the solar system. How can there be so many resources for farming. But this is only one aspect, and there is another reason-intentional." Liu Qigang leaned forward, his voice Gloomy and full of pressure: "These artificial meats are intentionally made like this!"

Si Chongtian's eyes widened, and Shi Tiexin narrowed his eyelids.

on purpose?
"I repeat, intentionally, intentionally. Artificial meat is not always free of essence. The original intention of inventing artificial meat was to make space food that is easy to prepare in Yizhong, so that warriors can continue to practice during space travel. So related The technology has matured decades ago, and it is not difficult to manufacture it.

"But why do we make meat like that? In order for these untouchables to cultivate smoothly, in order to make them all like dragons, will we replace us one day?

"wishful thinking!
"It would be nice to feed them enough to live.

"There is still a little bit of essence in this artificial meat now, and the standard will continue to be revised in the future, and the essence content will be lower and lower.

"Work hard, work hard, these pariahs actually don't even have a way to work hard. Your new friend, his ascension channel, has been virtually blocked for a long time. Trying to change your destiny through hard work is just a self-hypnosis. It's just a fantasy."

Si Chongtian looked at Shi Tiexin, who was expressionless.His heart was filled with familiar dissatisfaction and grief, but he was also a little happy.

The progress bar of natural history keeps going up!
"No, no, that's not right!" Si Chongtian shouted: "The origin sage has set the rules, everyone can practice martial arts, and everyone can become stronger! Uncle Liu, I often hear my father tell the story of your generation starting from scratch. , If efforts are really useless, aren't you also the pariahs you call them!"

Si Chongtian was excited, but Liu Qigang was very calm: "Our generation has caught up with the good times. When we were born, we caught up with the second big development, and when we were young, we caught up with the third big development. The solar system came to Saturn, and took their lives to fight to open up wasteland to gamble. We won the gamble, so we lived, and became the superior man. More people lost the gamble, so they died, or they are still untouchables.”

Liu Qigang pointed at Shi Tiexin: "His parents should be the kind of losers who lose."

Shi Tiexin's breathing suddenly became rapid, he didn't want to hear others talk about his parents like this, even if he didn't remember them at all.

Si Chongtian exclaimed, "You can gamble, but people today can't gamble?"

"You guys have no chance." Liu Qigang shook his head: "The inner solar system is an impregnable wall, and the asteroid belt is a giant chessboard. Jupiter and Saturn are already stereotyped, Uranus and Neptune are military officials, and their potential value is not large. Farther, it is the foggy wall.

"Where the sun shines, it is the kingdom of mankind. You must have heard this sentence, but it not only represents the brilliance of mankind, but also represents that our explorable space has come to an end. Like a prisoner, squatting only In a small black room that accommodates one body, there is no blank space, no blue ocean, no outside scenery, and no chance to gamble.

"The cultivation of the upper class is getting higher and higher, the things that can threaten them are getting less and less, and the demand for their own resources is increasing. And human beings have neither civil war nor foreign enemies, no consumption or terminal illness, so the per capita possession of the lower class is The amount of resources can only be reduced.

"Just like in a space city, there is only so much oxygen, and some people occupy more, and this person who occupies more is invincible in force, so others can only hold back, endure, and suffocate.

"This situation will only get worse.

"In the 100th year of the Mist Era, before that was the Exploration Generation, after that, I'm afraid it will be the Suffocation Generation."

Liu Qigang raised his finger and pointed at Si Chongtian: "You, nephew, you and your peers were born in such a suffocating generation."

Si Chongtian stopped talking, he was as wilted as an eggplant beaten by frost.

Shi Tiexin didn't say anything - the amount of information in Liu Qigang's words was too large, so that he could see the speeding little stars all the time now.Natural history, which has always been a headache, has broken through half of its progress bar.

No one spoke, Liu Qigang was not in a hurry, he just waited and watched, as if he wanted to see Si Chongtian's reaction.

After a long while, Si Chongtian still didn't respond, Liu Qigang's lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something, but Shi Tiexin did suddenly open his mouth: "Mr. Liu, let me talk about my understanding, it won't get in the way."

Liu Qigang looked at Shi Tiexin unexpectedly, and when he saw his still calm gaze, he suddenly became interested: "You say it."

"Then I said it." Shi Tiexin prepared the language: "I don't agree with what you said. I don't believe that hard work is useless, and I don't believe that our generation can only suffocate to death."

Hearing Shi Tiexin's words, Si Chongtian suddenly raised his head, and even looked at Shi Tiexin with expectation in his eyes, hoping that the eldest brother could say something to save his three views.

This time, Liu Qigang was no longer aggressive, but raised his hand elegantly: "Speak your truth."
