Beneath Deep Space

Yu Yifeng looked at this photo carefully: living humanoid creatures, familiar high-rise buildings...

Maglev tram?

Is this... a ship? It seems like an electric ship?

Almost every building has solar panels on the roof and a large number of solar water heaters...

If he hadn't clearly known that this was an alien planet, Yu Yifeng might have really thought that this was... the former Earth!

These "Auriga natives" who are similar to humans live in their own planet and happily become their own mountain kings.

"They must have evolved like this after receiving genetic broadcasts." However, the almost identical appearance still gave Yu Yifeng an inexplicable feeling of discomfort. He knew clearly in his heart that these creatures were not human beings.

"It's incredible. There is still some gap between Dige and us, but the natives of Yufu 2 actually look similar... There is almost no difference in appearance."

Yu Yifeng said in his heart in an inexplicable tone: "It can't be...all the creatures in the galaxy have been fucking transformed, right?"

When he thought about the next planet, or the next planet, and encountering a group of human-shaped indigenous people, densely packed with human-like creatures... He no longer knew what to say, and there was some strange anger in his heart.

Dr. Roman seemed to have seen Yu Yifeng's psychological activities, and suddenly sighed: "This advanced civilization is really boring. Maybe a random experiment by the other party will make us angry for a long time."

"Perhaps the other party likes to observe our anger? I really can't figure out the purpose of tampering with our appearance..."

Yu Yifeng took several breaths before calming down his inner anger.

He said expressionlessly: "Maybe it has no purpose at all, it's just a random experiment."

It's just that they look alike, but why I'm so angry is actually a human's unique uncanny valley mentality. But after I calmed down, I felt much better.

The first time is fresh, the second time is familiar. A similar mood has been ravaged by the Digger once, and the second time seems... that's it, it only lasted less than a minute.

Yu Yifeng even heard the excited roars of the young people around him. He turned his head and listened.

Many younger generations are pointing fingers at the Auriga natives.

It's strange that when faced with beings that look similar to themselves, they don't have a special uncanny valley mentality. Instead, they look very curious and eager to try.

A group of men and women are speculating on the culture, history, and social makeup of this civilization.

"You know...perhaps because of the influence of their childhood environment, young people like them are accustomed to highly intelligent robots and are more open-minded than us first-generation old guys. And young people are more adaptable to this kind of mentality. This universe."

Dr. Roman sighed: "We have educated a generation that is better than us. Their minds are broader than ours, and they have more unconstrained ideas. Their tolerance is also stronger than ours..."

"The narrow-minded thinking of our first generation that is attached to our home planet should be eliminated."

For young people, this kind of scene of life on the planet can only be seen in costume TV series, which makes them novel.

Well, the constant flow of people, the endless traffic, and urban life in the earth age have indeed turned into a costume TV series...

Therefore, they are also particularly concerned about Chariot 2.

But this kind of concern is just a "fun" mentality, not "going home"!

This is the most essential difference.

For them, home is here, the Noah!

In the long journey towards the starry sky, the new human civilization has gradually grown from childishness to maturity, especially the younger generations, who have long ceased to be obsessed with finding their home planet.

Because people can mine resources on almost any planet, whether it is an asteroid belt or a gaseous planet, the only difference is the difficulty.

This is already a low-level civilization and unimaginable technology.

In such a situation of extreme wealth, it is no longer necessary to find a home planet where one can live comfortably.

Having seen the vastness of the starry sky, are you really willing to live on a planet?

Yu Yifeng looked at these enthusiastic and curious young people and felt enlightened.

He couldn't say that this way of thinking was wrong. On the contrary, their first generation's thinking of searching for and being attached to their home planet was not in line with the trend of the times.

"Actually... blindly pursuing the embrace of the mother planet is a lazy thought!"

Dr. Roman suddenly shook his head and said: "We are greedy for the embrace of our mother planet, trying to gain a sense of security and comfort. We always stubbornly believe that only living on a planet can solve all security risks..."

"Actually, that's not the case... Looking for the home planet is just the inherent thinking of our first generation. The following generations, who were born in the starry sky, have no such obsession."

A person's childhood is the golden period for shaping values ​​and worldview, and it has a huge impact on thinking.

The first generation of elderly people on the Noah ship were all natives of Earth. It is not difficult to understand that they long for a home planet similar to the Earth.

The first generation always believed that the starry sky was unsafe, and the Noah was also unsafe. Only their home planet... was safe.

But the following generations did not have this kind of thinking.

"Could it be that the problem is that...the first generation's thinking is not successful? Perhaps what has been lost has been whitewashed by time. We old guys are still longing for the life of a low-level civilization?"

Yu Yifeng thought for a while, but had to nod: "Yes... we have educated a better generation. But we ourselves are still affected by our inherent thinking..."

"This kind of thinking is actually a kind of laziness. If everyone stays on their own planet, who will be willing to go out to explore and take risks?"

Moreover, in the Earth Age, there will always be only one kind of intelligent creature, human beings. They have involuntarily developed a mentality that human beings are the "spirit of all things", as if the entire world is centered on humans.

However, the interstellar era is not like this...

This also leads to...human beings always have an uncomfortable mentality when seeing other intelligent creatures.

This series of thoughts is not spoken or thought in the mind, but stays in the subconscious mind of the first-generation individuals, invisibly affecting people's various decisions.

“The starry sky is so broad, our hearts should also be broad.”

"Now, it's time for us to make changes. We, the first generation, are the backbone of scientific development. We must make changes and abandon our inherent thinking to better adapt to the interstellar age."

"What we need is exploration and discovery. Our home star has been destroyed and there will never be another one. Blind search and greed are just an excuse for our own depravity and laziness!"

After thinking about this problem clearly, Yu Yifeng felt disappointed. He didn't know whether he was right or wrong. In other words, as a native of Earth, his thinking itself is limited.

He also thought about the similarity between the two civilizations.

"As the Sower said, if the core of a civilization is only based on its appearance, it is really too superficial. The charioteer civilization and the new human civilization are indeed similar in appearance, but their thinking patterns and technological levels should be very different. The big gap...is an all-around gap.”

"After all, they are different from us, so why should they be angry? This kind of anger is completely unnecessary. It is a kind of stinginess in itself."

Yu Yifeng calmed down and remembered a conversation with the Sower Civilization.

A scientist once asked: "What do you think should be done about indigenous civilizations on living planets?"

The ball of light smiled and said: "We like civilizations with development potential, and like to witness the rise of a civilization, but do not like its decline. But for us, we just observe them and generally adopt a non-interference policy. Because, ordinary civilizations, It’s hard to inspire us any more.”

"But for ordinary interstellar civilizations, the genetic value and social discovery value of living planets are often far greater than the ordinary material value... How to handle it specifically should be decided by you."

The tone of that being was a little gloomy: "The starry sky is so big, but so dim. There are very few civilizations that can even step out of the starry sky... let alone the civilizations that truly pursue wisdom."

After hearing these words, people couldn't help but curiously asked: "You are so powerful, why don't you cultivate a few interstellar civilizations? This kind of thing should be simple, right?"

Guangtuan said in a negative tone: "You are wrong, it is difficult, very difficult... Low-level civilizations have too many burdens and are limited by their own civilization paradigm. It is very difficult to push them forward..."

"...The first method is to tamper with the spiritual will of low-level civilization individuals on a large scale and forcibly modify their memories. However, the interstellar civilization modified in this way has lost its own culture, and often does not have much creativity and no value. Word……"

"The second method is to teach them step by step, instill ideology and technology into them. But this kind of civilization is just a flower in a greenhouse. Once it loses support, it will wither immediately, and it will be difficult to make moves beyond this civilization. …It’s not of much value either.”

"The third type, of course, is secret interference... This is also the most commonly used."

Thinking of this, Yu Yifeng let out a long sigh. He had to admit that human beings might have been secretly interfered by some advanced civilization...

"And the other party actually has a kind intention?!"

"We still have many, many ways to go."

Yu Yifeng held his chin and thought for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed: "Well, let's do it again...experience the life on earth we long for! Maybe our generation will learn more, more... "
