Road to science and technology
Chapter 531 Breaking through the Soul Cage
Mark was not polite and generously went to get it, but what he got was a can of war horse.
He obviously didn't expect that the Shenzhou civilization would have such a thing. It seemed that they were both human beings and had very similar tastes.
"I want it too. I want it too."
When Xia Dou saw that Bai Yuekui had already taken it, he also flashed over and took a bottle. Erica was not left behind either, but what she got was different from Xia Dou.
It seems that because of the food, Xia Dou's favorability towards Yun Guangyu improved a little. She unscrewed the bottle cap and walked to the sofa and asked, "What kind of strange drink is this?"
"The specialty drink of Pandora, a planet belonging to our Shenzhou civilization, is made from a fruit on that planet. It may taste a bit strange to those who have never tasted it."
Before Yun Guangyu could finish speaking, he saw Xia Dou raise his head and sigh, then his eyes suddenly widened, the sides of his mouth bulged, and his expression was weird, as if he was holding something back.
It’s done, let’s squirt! Yun Guangyu secretly said.
He was sitting directly opposite Xia Dou and could see it very clearly. However, when he was about to get something to block the spray, he saw Xia Dou turn his head.
Then
"Pfft~~~"
"Ah! Kidou, the clothes we just changed are so expensive."
This sip happened to hit Erica who was just passing by. The drink dripped down Erica's cheeks to her firm chest, and then flowed down Gou Gou to who knows where.
"Bah, bah, bah, what the hell is this thing that tastes so bad!"
Xia Dou shuddered at first, obviously aroused by this strange drink. After shaking, she quickly jumped over and grabbed Erica, who was still dripping. She tried her best to show an awkward smile and said: "Um... Tiehanhan, I really didn't mean it. It's all because of this alien drink. It tastes bad, hehe."
Bai Yuekui raised his hand to his forehead and said helplessly: "Xia Dou."
Xia Dou quickly pulled Ai Kali and said, "Well, I'll take Tie Hanhan to change clothes first."
The moment he went out and closed the door, Xia Dou muttered: "Tiehanhan, you are quite big."
Bai Yuekui: "..."
This Xia Dou, she was too embarrassed to see anyone.
Mark also covered his face. Erica was already a headache, but he didn't expect that there would be such a similar existence in the survivor base on the ground.
After the two live treasures went out, only Yun Guangyu, Mark and Bai Yuekui were left inside, and the atmosphere became serious.
After Yun Guangyu took a sip of the strange drink, he looked at Bai Yuekui and said, "Actually, what you are worried about is the depletion of resources and the collapse of moral ethics caused by immortality, as well as the inability to change concepts and cognition, and the stagnation of social development.
After all, in your opinion, this is how the current disaster was born. Because of the birth of the immortality potion, life and death have become unequal in your society.
The prosthetic bodies all over the world, the complete angel potion, and the birth mechanism of spinal Gu, all these have shown that you have the technology to make people live longer or even live forever. But not everyone can live forever, because there are always some people who are very poor and cannot afford to change the body, let alone buy a complete angel potion.
How terrible is the inequality in the face of eternal life. For example, there is such a family in society. Both couples will reach the natural life limit, but the property they own is only enough for one person to buy medicine or replace a prosthetic body.
How will this family make a decision at this time? Who will use this money to extend their lives?
The so-called love may be able to withstand the test of life and death, because in an era without eternal life, everyone will die, but die early and die later. But in the face of eternal life, how much love can withstand the test?
You must have heard the legend of Hou Yi and Chang'e, so I don't need to say more.
You must be worried that in this case, family, friendship, and love will fall apart instantly, so it seems that there is no need for a family based on love to exist. "
Yun Guangyu pointed in the direction of the lighthouse and joked: "Perhaps downplaying family relationships has become the first choice for the new social system. Just like the lighthouse, children are completely raised by society. They are bred when needed and born when not needed. Babies are all crimes. Of course, it is also possible for children to be born from culture media, and our Shenzhou civilization has also considered these options."
Bai Yuekui frowned, seeming to be considering what Yun Guangyu said.
After half the payment, she opened her lips and said, "Then what do you do?"
Yun Guangyu took a deep breath: "I was not born in that magnificent era of immortality, but according to civilization records, we did not choose this direction at that time."
Mark put his hand on his chin and thought, while Bai Yuekui listened quietly. These all come from a civilization with extremely advanced technology and a civilization where individuals are almost immortal.
It was important to them, because she knew that humans would never give up on the study of immortality no matter what, no matter how unpredictable the impact the study of immortality would have on the future.
After all, when an opportunity for eternal life is presented to a dying old man, will he give up? He won't!
Faced with the possibility of inevitable death and eternal life, what will you choose, and how will others choose? If you choose to die, what if someone else becomes immortal?
There is no surprise in the choice of human society, otherwise there would not be the current ecological disaster of Mana.
Although the survivors on the ground will not face this problem that human society has faced now, Bai Yuekui knows that if the small society she leads continues to develop, it will definitely face this problem again.
No one understands the humanity of the apocalypse better than she does.
So now that she had this opportunity to hear about the experience of the Shenzhou civilization, how could she not want to know about it if she had a long-term perspective?
Yun Guangyu seemed to be reminiscing, and Mark and Bai Yuekui didn't bother him.
After a while, I heard him say: "Our Shenzhou civilization has indeed faced the same problem. You also know that the hymn of mankind is a hymn to life, and the hymn to life is a hymn to courage. So where does courage come from?
In an era when the body cannot survive forever, people's courage comes from the pursuit of spiritual eternity, that is, contributing to society will always live in people's hearts. This is the reason why the so-called fame will go down in history and success will appear. Therefore, Tai Shigong said: "Everyone is born with death or death." Heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather'.
Even if most people can't do it, they will sincerely admire this spirit.
However, when a civilization possesses immortality technology, will this spirit still exist in this civilization? nonexistent!
The Great Wall is still there today, but Qin Shihuang is nowhere to be seen. If the opportunity of eternal life is placed in front of him, then how can the achievements of eternity be worth his eternity of youth?
From one point to another, it is conceivable that the spirit of dedication to life will no longer exist, and the social spiritual and cultural values created over thousands of years will collapse in an instant in the face of the inequality of life and death. "
"This is a problem that any civilization that embarks on the journey of individual immortality must face. Our Shenzhou civilization is no exception, and the method we use is very effective and practical."
Yun Guangyu smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Soul imprinting technology!"
"Soul imprint?" Mark and Bai Yuekui said in surprise at the same time, but Mark's tone was doubtful, while Bai Yuokui's tone was doubtful and horrified.
Yun Guangyu took a breath and said: "It is a technology that directly allows people to have firm beliefs at the spiritual level. It is an enhanced version of the power of the ideological stamp. It seems that you don't know the ideological stamp. Sometimes ignorance can be quite happy."
"I later learned that our leaders had mastered this technology before I was born. But it was me who presided over the project to imprint the soul of civilized individuals. At that time, we were preparing for a cosmic war. In fact, there was this reason. That’s why we had to use this technology.
It was a war that affected half of the galaxy's cantilever. The result of the war directly led to the destruction of all stars within tens of thousands of light-years, and finally the entire battlefield space became two-dimensional. Of course it is not the universe you are in now. "
"Maybe what we did was right at that time, because we won the war." Yun Guangyu paused and looked at Bai Yuekui, and said: "Obviously, you don't have this kind of technology at the moment, but as a brain expert, you may be able to I don’t know how long it will take before we come into contact with it, but it will be popularized, and don’t you still have a lighthouse system?”
Bai Yuekui said categorically: "We will never implement that kind of emotionless system!"
Mark is still immersed in the war described by Yun Guangyu.
Yun Guangyu smiled and said: "Of course, what I mentioned above is just one of the methods. In fact, from my current point of view, there is no need to worry about the social problems caused by immortality.
The reason why the elderly are stubborn is because their learning and cognitive abilities have deteriorated as they age, so they are driven by biological instincts to stick to their original cognitions. But if a life is always in a young and energetic state , the future is also full of hope for this life, so keeping pace with the times is not a problem at all. "
"As for how to guide individuals, how to avoid social solidification, and how to ensure sufficient resources, it depends on your own choice. The universe is extremely vast."
Yun Guangyu is in a good mood now, because after coming here with Yue Yuanzhou, he successfully made the Shenzhou civilization abandon the soul imprint, and then chose to think about meaning other than the Tower of Meaning.
The Shenzhou civilization also formally considered the three major questions of philosophy in the form of an entire civilization: Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going?
The spirit cage, the cage of the soul, if you break through the cage, it will be a vast new world.
