The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 486 The Law of Survival
I quarreled with the old man loudly, and Davis was kicked aside by me.

"You keep saying that for the benefit of all mankind, for the progress of civilization, where is the benefit? Where is the progress? I didn't see the progress of civilization, I only saw a group of lunatics!"

The old man sat down on his seat with a sneer, and said, "What's the use of scolding me now? Human nature is selfish, just like you only cared about running for your own life last night. When these research results come out, human beings can overcome diseases, prolong life, and develop the ability of the brain." Spiritual power, when civilization enters a new level, we will all be heroes, let civilization speak, let history speak, your current opinion is nothing."

For a while, I couldn't even refute.

Say their research is meaningless?No, in fact, I also know that their research is very advanced, and creating a new era of civilization is not an unattainable dream.Think of F3's spiritual laboratory, and think of many such research institutions around the world.If all this can really be realized, then whether it is 100 years, 200 years, or even thousands of years, these cross-age things will also be remembered by civilization forever.

Yes, the old man was right.

People are selfish.

Who cares about the victims when all benefit?Even opponents like me may be listed in future textbooks as villains who prevent the development of civilization.

In this situation, just like animal protectionists stand up and scold those who use animals for medical experiments, no one will stand by them.Because all people are making profits and enjoying the results of animal experiments, and stopping animal experiments is infringing on the interests of all.

What a ridiculous way these animal protectionists will exit in embarrassment and embarrassment.

When everyone benefits, my situation is similar to these animal protectionists. In the eyes of those beneficiaries, I am ridiculous and stupid.

But this does not mean that I should give in, I said: "There is no beneficiary, and your research results are still in a very low-level state. Therefore, I can scold you, and scold you crazy people openly."

The old man said: "No achievement can be achieved overnight. Our world, what it was like 100 years ago, and what it will be like today 100 years later, is completely turned upside down, right? Can you guarantee that it will still be like this in the next 100 years? ?”

I sneered, and said, "Don't talk so far, you should be over 50 this year, and if you live another ten or twenty years, you should be in the coffin. What are you worried about after 20 years?"

The old man said: "Who said I can only live for more than ten or twenty years? Both KB20 and your body have regenerative genes, a very powerful regenerative gene. I used ten years to analyze it, maybe ten years. Years later, this regenerative gene can be used on oneself."

I said, "In the final analysis, you are still for yourself."

The old man said: "Excellent people, shouldn't they live longer and make more contributions?"

I said: "Unexpectedly, as a modern scholar, you still have this kind of thinking. In your heart, people are divided into grades. Is there no meaning for those who are not outstanding?"

The old man stared at me, smiled, and said: "Are you planning to put a moral hat on me? Young man, you can't put this hat on me, because what I said is the truth. Species, survival of the fittest , do you know why there were so many myths and legends in ancient times?"

I said, "Gossip, you want to tell me fairy tales?"

The old man said: "I'm not telling you a story, I'm telling you the facts. Whether it's Eastern civilization or Western civilization, in myths and legends, there is a time when humans and gods live together, right?"

I nodded. This kind of phenomenon is more common in Western myths and legends. Gods walk in the world and even combine with humans to have children.In our traditional Chinese mythology, the era in which Nuwa and Fuxi lived was also an era in which humans and gods lived together.Later, for some reason, the people and gods in myths and legends gradually separated.

The old man said slowly: "Do you know the dragon group?"

"I know, I heard that the people in this organization have some special abilities."

The old man said: "It's not a supernatural power, it's just that the mental power of the brain is relatively strong. Just like a fierce ghost, the magnetic field is strong to a certain extent, and can display many abilities. In ancient times, human beings followed the law of survival of the fittest and reproduced. Life, strong spiritual power, makes many people have some special abilities. These people are what we call gods. Unfortunately, as human life gradually settles down, the death rate decreases and the life span increases. People mix together and interbreed, and even voluntarily give up the "Natural Sword". The brains of the later generations are gradually closed, and each generation is not as good as the next generation. Naturally, those legendary gods will disappear and it is difficult to see them. What we are doing now is not fighting against humans anymore, but just recovering our lost abilities."

"Natural sword?" I'm quite interested in this statement. In fact, what the old man said about mixing humans and gods and developing spiritual power is very new to me.

Davis rubbed his neck and coughed: "The sword of nature, ahem, is actually a consensus secretly reached in the biological world, and it is another form of survival of the fittest. We humans initially had a high mortality rate due to an unstable living environment. Therefore, like all animals, you can only make your offspring stronger, that is, the reproduction of winners and winners. Excellent men and women can get more mating rights and let their genes pass on. This is the same as Like animals."

"But later, with the stability of life, the reduction of death rate, and the dense population, human beings voluntarily gave up the principle of selective reproduction, because everyone hopes to survive, and everyone hopes to give birth to their own offspring. And selective reproduction, It is very cruel. If there are ten men and ten women in the tribe, then these ten women will all choose the strongest one, and the remaining nine will be eliminated. And these ten women, and They will mate with different strong men and give birth to better offspring."

"The 'Sword of Nature' is very cruel, but it can guarantee that an excellent group will always be excellent and even better. However, in a stable state of life, such groups of nine gradually increase, and when they start rioting, for the sake of the group Stability... Guess what humans did?"

I understood a little bit, suddenly realized, and said: "Marriage."

Davis said: "Yes, it is marriage, so that everyone, whether good or bad, has the right to reproduce. This is the marriage system. It maintains the balance within the population, but at the same time, it violates the principle of survival of the fittest. According to the laws of nature, some genes that should be eliminated in the laws of nature have been passed down and mixed together. Although the human brain is constantly increasing, the amount of development is getting narrower and narrower. Until now... the gods have disappeared."

I said: "Your plan is called 'Return of the Ghosts', but according to what you say, human genes can no longer be changed, and the marriage system is also very strong. If you want to achieve the goal of the Return of the Ghosts, wouldn't you Want to eliminate a large number of your so-called low-quality human beings, and dissolve the marriage system? Oh, I imagined it, that scene is not good."

Sure enough, there is only a thin line between a genius and a lunatic. I have never heard of this theory, but based on what I know, this theory is actually tenable.

Davis smiled and said, "Among the animals in the natural world, even if there are creatures similar to the marriage system, they are for reproduction. Only human beings have voluntarily given up the law of selective reproduction. Of course, give up this 'natural sword' Whether it is good or bad, no one knows. If you don’t give up, maybe human beings would have disappeared in the internal strife and riots, or there would be no prosperous scene today, who knows? Therefore, people are divided into levels, even if At this level, no one will say it."

"Morality is a silencer, it can cover up the voice, but it cannot make the voice itself disappear, the truth and facts are there."

I said, "Then do you think you are an excellent person? Then what kind of person should disappear?"

The old man said: "There are many definitions of excellence. However, for creatures, those that can survive are excellent. Among the creatures that survive, those that can make the population strong are excellent."

I said, "What about the emotion?"

The old man said: "Every person and every animal has its emotions. If this is the standard, then all life should survive."

I said: "A kind-hearted person has never done anything harmful to the world or made great achievements. He just wants to live. Is there something wrong?"

The old man said: "Do you know how many people there are on the earth? Do you know what such a number means? Resources are like a piece of cake. If too many people share it, everyone will starve to death in the end."

I said: "I think your words are a bit anti-human."

The old man smiled and said: "Young man, don't give me such a big hat casually. Human beings are a very great race. Such a race should have better development, which is just the goal of all of us. "

Before I could speak, he said again: "Okay, the topic is a bit far away, I am not here to discuss the history of human evolution and marriage with you, let alone have a moral debate with you. Just now, my request is also Having said that, you make a decision. Should you arrest people, or stay in the research base?"

I sat back in the chair and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Waiting for me, it seems that there is no third way.
