Chapter 342: A Discussion of Human Civilization

"No, of course it's more than that. Rulai denied, "Feelings are not the key to breaking through the limits of star beasts, but feelings are not obstacles to the evolution of creatures. Haven't you noticed that although Ma Ma is saving women and parents, he is also desperately protecting his classmates and even the base of Xi'an Jiaotong University. But his behavior, which seems very stupid and ridiculous to us, did not hinder his evolution in any way, and even contributed to his rapid growth. ”

"Fart!" Zu shouted angrily, completely ignoring his identity, "His rapid evolution comes from the cooperation of the Chaos Body and the Primordial Breath, from his own inhuman pain tolerance, from desperately killing high-level monsters again and again, and even from the various materials that you, the little guy gave him, but definitely not from the stupidity in him!

Zu seemed to be getting more and more angry, and he didn't know whether he was angry or had not gotten rid of his resentment against the mountains and seas, and finally almost gritted his teeth and said: "Originally, I thought that he saved the same kind in the broken base for the continuation of the race and against the giant beast civilization, which we all have the instinct of creatures, but when I saw his inexplicable actions, I knew that the human beings on the earth could not take the path of actively interfering with the evolution of the body after all." Even if we cultivate this kid ourselves, we probably don't know how much energy it will take! And the biggest obstacle to this is your so-called affection! Whether it is family affection or love, it is something that must be recognized clearly on the road of evolution!"

"I used to think so, and even in our Light Chasers, those scientists think this way. There is a saying that can be well summed up by the ancient words of human beings, that is, 'Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy the desires of men'. It's a pity that although there have been many great sages in human beings, they have never really unified this kind of brilliant evolutionary thought! And those great sages, because of the imprisonment of the jade beast's editing genes, cannot embark on the real path of evolution! They have put forward many concepts similar to 'the unity of heaven and man,' which coincide with many concepts of evolution, and even fantasized about many evolutionary methods, and they named themselves 'becoming immortals'. In fact, that's just the subconscious concept of star beast evolution. Rulai analyzes with emotion the information it obtains from the Earth's network.

"If feelings are really an obstacle on the road of evolution, then the Jade Beast will definitely not let human feelings develop and evolve to such a rich extent, after all, she has two hands ready for humans!" this is, Mei Ji spoke, "Moreover, there is no absolute boundary between whether feelings are rich or not. To what extent is it rich, and what is just right, and how should it be measured? Like our sense of responsibility for the reproduction and evolution of our own race, isn't it actually a kind of feeling, and the friendship between you and me for thousands of years is not also a very strong feeling? In the eyes of the people of the earth, this kind of feeling should be connected with their so-called love and family affection. ”

"Yes, yes, yes," Rulai affirmed again and again, "Ma Li once told me that they humans have something called literature, which is a kind of inheritance carrier of civilization, a bit similar to the bloodline memory inheritance in beast civilization. That kind of thing is much more complicated than bloodline memories, though!"

"It's more complicated than bloodline memory?Do you know what it is to create bloodline?Do you know how difficult it is for Archaeopteryx to create bloodline?" Ancestor scoffed at its words, as an Archaeopteryx, it thought it had the most say in this matter.

Rulai did not directly refute it, but through the function of spiritual transmission, he sent the synopsis of hundreds of thousands of classic literary works of human beings that it screened out to Zu and Meiji. Of course, in addition to the fact that there are no professional books on modern industrial technology, it can be regarded as all-encompassing, whether it is sociology, spiritual science, humanities, classical culture, modern literature and art, science fiction literature, and even organizational behavior, of course, there are a large number of online literature and documentary literature.

"This is only a small part of the literature created by human beings, and I have not sent the written records of their technological path to the two adults. ”

There is a hint of inexplicability in the words of Rulai, as if to say: I sent it to you, and you can't understand it.

Then it said, "You see, this is the literature of mankind, and they call this creation imagination. Their science fiction writers used to think that if aliens – that is, us, – could not have become an advanced civilization without imagination. And the truth is, although we have imagination, in their eyes, it is almost equal to nothing. Because all our imagination must be based on a solid foundation of facts. Because of this, there is no such thing as literature in our civilization, even if we take the route of science and technology, although our technology is different from theirs, there is still nothing similar to literature in so many of our races. Not to mention things like music and art. ”

Speaking of which, Rulai passed on some video and audio materials to Zu and Meiji.

Among them, there are paintings of all genres in the world, whether it is realism, impressionism, fauvism, abstraction according to style, or Western painting and Oriental painting according to cultural region, everything from sketches to oil paintings, watercolor paintings, and even prints, sculptures, and ink paintings.

There are also various kinds of music, such as modern music, classical music, and situational music composed of natural sounds, etc., and modern music is divided into electronic music, metal music, percussion, rap, reggae, soul music, R&B, etc.

These materials made Zu and Meiji obviously suffer a kind of mental impact.

"This is the so-called literature, fine arts, music that they created. They claim that these are the three means of cleansing the human soul. ”

"It's kind of classical. Maggie was feeling a melody from Bach, the 15th section of the Mass in B minor, which happened to be the content of the 'Conception', "It was a novel feeling for us. ”

A slightly intoxicated expression appeared on her beautiful face.

"Yes!" Rulai sighed, "I used to despise their so-called civilization, after all, in our opinion, they are still a backward civilization that has just come into contact with nuclear energy, and in the eyes of the beast civilization, they are even more fragile, like ants. ”

Speaking of this, Rulai paused: "It wasn't until I found out that their spiritual power was very abnormal and ridiculously powerful, that I began to divide my energy little by little to study their so-called spiritual civilization. The more I researched, the more I found that the richness of their spiritual world was comparable to the physical superiority of the top star beasts compared to ours!"

"What's the use? The things that a group of ants have imagined are just a waste of their time!" Zu listened for a long time, but still did not change his opinion, "These things look beautiful, but what is the use of evolution? You tell me, what's the use?"

Zu's words silenced Rulai, as if wondering how to answer it.
