Chapter 1865 uses the past as a metaphor for the present
The first phase of the Planetary Thrusters has been completed, massive behemoths have been erected on the continents of the Northern Hemisphere, and large machines have been used to the extreme in order to complete engines taller than Mount Everest.
Excavators, cranes, transporters, and all the machinery was built in a big way, and there were countless huge transport helicopters.
Beauty is mechanical rivets, and good is lever gears.
The sound of the roar of the steel behemoth is a hymn to human civilization, and the towering engine erected on the surface of the earth is a monument to human civilization.
The first phase of the project took 10 years, and it was still several decades before everything was completed, because the steering engine on the equator had not yet started.
In the past decade, the Trisolarans have also begun to migrate to Australia, and they have also begun to build dungeons, because Australia is in the southern hemisphere, and it will be a state of eternal night for a long time in the future, and they can only rely on high technology to live underground.
However, the technology of the Trisolarans is advanced, and their dungeons are impregnable.
In addition to the surface engineering, a number of space warships in the universe have also been completed with the cooperation of humans and Trisolarans. The Lightspeed Engine and Antimatter Missile were provided by the Trisolarans, and the spacecraft were used to clear the way, and if there were any meteorite obstacles in the wandering orbit, they needed to be cleared by the spacecraft.
These high-tech ships are the cleaners.
The Trisolarans are still going through the most difficult moments, and the Trisolarans are still in the midst of a civil war. After the decision was made after the lottery, the extreme Trisolarans who lost their minds almost died with the earth several times, all relying on the efforts of the rational faction among the Trisolarans to stop them.
Although the Trisolarans immigrated to Australia, more Trisolarans fought in their home planets, uttered their last cry in despair, and then were consumed by despair.
Obviously, the list of immigrants decided by lottery does not make everyone agree, and the civil war has been fought for several years and will continue to be fought.
The Trisolarans who have arrived on Earth live silently, and they don't dare to have any unfriendly thoughts, because the half-breed is very powerful and can read the thoughts of the Trisolaran, but his values are all Earth First, although the half-breed is only ten years old, he is already a pure earthling.
The people of the earth also never forget the propaganda of national unity, telling the three-body people that everyone is a mayfly in the universe, and they must unite so that they will not be wiped out, and it is the best choice for everyone to work together to live a life. Many Trisolarans have also accepted the reality and worked with peace of mind, anyway, at least they don't have to worry about the explosion of the sun on the earth.
The fear of stars in Trisolar can be said to be deep-rooted, they are afraid of the rising and setting of the sun, and the safest time is when the sun is in the sky.
Because they don't know if the sun will appear after sunset, and how many suns will appear when the sun rises.
The three-solar system is very chaotic, leaving the trisolar star with no fixed season and no fixed day. For them, the worship of the sun by the earthlings is unreasonable, and the earthlings actually think that the sun gives life to all things, which is simply terrifying.
For the Trisolarans, the sun is destruction, not hope.
On Earth, Trisolarans need to slowly adapt to the monotony of the sun, to the repeated rise and setting of the sun from east to west every day.
In fact, the fear of the sun and the worship of the sun are both different paths, both of which are to unite life. Everyone says that people are social animals, but at the beginning, people lived together only by blood, and it was definitely not the gathering of people of different origins and cultures as they do today.
How can people overcome the small circle of blood and enter the big circle of civilization? It depends on the deification of nature, and this has been the case since ancient times.
The biggest turning point was when the civilization changed from hunting to farming. When hunting civilizations are limited, blood relatives hunt in solidarity or go to war with other groups that prey grab, and the circle is small and scattered. In the African savannah, many carnivores still maintain this form.
After that, we will enter the agricultural civilization, and farming needs labor and population. But how to unite the small circle that used to kill you to death in order to snatch prey?
Quite simply, it is to create gods.
Egyptian, Mayan, European, Asian, and other civilizations were all imbued with divinity in the beginning. God's will is higher than everything else, higher than the power of blood, so that the small circle that originally had a blood feud is condensed into a tribe.
It can be said that the myths of the civilized world can be traced back to the early days of agrarian civilization, which was formed in order to unite the population.
However, there are exceptions to everything, for example, there was an accident in ancient China, the superstitious Shang Dynasty was overthrown by the Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty did not talk about those ethereal gods, but began to talk about the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, in order to abolish the brutal human sacrifice of the Shang Dynasty. The three emperors and five emperors are all the ancestors of the Zhou people, and unlike the gods of the Shang Dynasty, they don't eat people, so since they don't eat people, they naturally don't need to kill people and sacrifice to the gods. Since the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors will bless everyone with good weather if they don't kill people, how can everyone not support the Zhou Dynasty?
During the tribal period, there were many gods, and after attacking each other, they killed the captives and sacrificed their gods, which has been recorded in various ancient civilizations. Eventually, there were fewer and fewer gods, and finally there were only those who are often talked about today.
The above is the history of human beings, and the history of the Trisolarans is actually similar, except that they only fear God and do not worship it.
Human beings kill captives and sacrifice to gods in the hope that God will bless them, so there is definitely more to God than just fear. If the gods really let them get the wind in order, they would surely praise and worship the gods.
The Trisolarans will not be like this, the terrible disaster of the three suns has taught them that the gods have always been malicious, and they must fight against the gods if they want to survive. It can be said that God has been a great demon in their culture from the beginning. They don't have a chance to come out without defeating the gods, so their myths are basically stories of fighting the gods, and of course they basically end in failure.
There are not many myths about the Trisolara, but the most popular story is that a man escaped the pursuit of the gods, and finally blinded the eyes of the gods, so that the gods could never find him. Avoiding God is already the greatest wish of the three-body people, so don't say anything about worship, it is impossible to have the mind to worship at all.
Therefore, there are still many conceptual gaps between the trisolaran and human beings sitting together.
In fact, even between human beings and human beings, there are conceptual gaps between different classes, no need for knowledge, and different genders, let alone two different civilizations.
However, people with lofty ideals on both sides are working hard to change their differences. They found that the current situation is the same as that of the hunting civilizations of ancient times, where different civilizations killed each other to ensure their survival. And the best way to unite everyone is to change the mode of survival, historically the hunting civilization has changed to the farming civilization, so that everyone has a different way of survival, a change of values.
If there is a system similar to an agrarian civilization, then they can unite more civilizations by creating a 'god' that unites everyone. At that time, the dark forest of the universe will also be broken, and it will definitely be a new era.
Although human beings and three-body people are still very weak, but their thinking has been in the forefront of the universe, with history as a mirror, through the past to metaphor the present, from history to gain experience, with primitive society to think about the current form of the universe, human beings and three-body people thinkers believe that the universe to change must undergo the change from hunting to agricultural civilization, from a small circle to a large circle, must accept the constraints and management of 'God'.
It's just that although they have thought of it, where is the specific direction? They still have to figure it out.
The current situation of the Trisolarans and the earthlings is the first step in creating gods, and now the 'wandering project' is the 'god' that both sides believe in, and this 'god' will bless them with survival.
