1670.The Wise Whale (10/10)
After possessing the consciousness of the sea god, Qin Shiou entered a new world and could understand the creatures in the ocean from an almost non-scientific perspective.
However, this non-scientific perspective can only be said to be untouched by human science at present, not that it is not science. For example, Poseidon energy can make fish and shrimp grow rapidly, but it can't make fish become shrimp and shrimp become fish.
In the same way, Poseidon energy can make species smarter, but it can't make them independent.
Huzi, Leopard, Bear, Big White Wolf, and even Snowball Bean Sanxiao and Air Sanshao, they are all very smart, and the intelligence they show is even shocking, for example, Huzi and Leopard can understand what he wants to do because of Qin Shiou's action.
This proves that they are conscious, self-aware, aware of the relationship and connection between me and the master, but they have no independent consciousness, they cannot think, they cannot control emotions and behaviors through their brains, they only have the most basic needs and fears for survival. Their consciousness can be controlled by independent consciousness, that is, the independent consciousness of the master.
So, these animals and fish, no matter how intelligent they are, are lower creatures, and of course this is only relative to the current definition of human beings. If placed in the vast and mysterious universe, humans and paramecium may belong to the same level of existence.
But on Earth, according to the racial differences established by human beings, human beings are the only higher animals.
Qin Shiou couldn't communicate with the fish and shrimp through the sea god consciousness, he could only give orders, and the fish and shrimp could only accept orders, and the same was true with tigers, leopards, bears and wolves.
However, this is not the case with what he felt just now, and someone has clearly transmitted his consciousness to him just now, and this is independent consciousness, that is, he was called just now. It was a higher creature......
Qin Shiou was stunned and frightened, he slowly turned to look at the 'higher creature' that called him behind him, he didn't know what he was facing at all, because this was something he had never thought of, and it had never existed in the history of science.
"Tata, what's wrong with you?" The consciousness was still questioning him.
Qin Shiou looked ahead. I finally saw the existence that emitted consciousness, and it was an old sperm whale......
The old sperm whale is too old, so old that I can't tell how old it is, I can only see that it is covered with scars, and the skin is grayish-white, the reason why it is not the gray-black common of sperm whales is not because the skin is too old and the skin is aging, but almost every inch of skin has been injured, and the new scars are gray-white. These scars join together and eventually become this grayish-white.
Its size is about sixteen to seventeen meters, which is smaller than the leading big brother controlled by Qin Shiou, who is a twenty-meter-long undersea giant, and even the Great White Whale Black Overlord has to obey in front of it.
But its head is particularly large, square and square, like a giant box, although the body length is two or three meters shorter than the leading big brother sperm whale, but the size of the two heads is similar. Obviously, its brain is also very large.
When Qin Shiou looked at it. This consciousness reappeared: "Tata, what's wrong with you?" What happened to you? You come to me. ”
What he encountered now was unknown, and Qin Shiou couldn't understand it, so he was a little dazed for a while, and he subconsciously didn't dare to get closer, but he would find out. This consciousness is transmitted through strange sound waves that 'click'.
In fact, this old sperm whale did not call him 'Tata', but 'Click', and he made two crisp 'clicks' in a row.
Subconsciously like this, Qin Shiou first withdrew the consciousness of the sea god, and then sat on the beach all of a sudden. Stupidly staring at the endless ocean in a daze.
The three young men of the sky who returned home in the evening noticed that something was wrong with him, and the golden eagle Chennault took the lead, and they flew down and landed beside him one after another, looking at him with curious eyes, and Nimitz also stretched out his big wings and rubbed him, as if to comfort him.
In this way, Qin Shiou was startled again, wouldn't the three young people also have an independent consciousness?
He picked up the nearest Nimitz and put it into the seawater, and then used the Seagod Consciousness to communicate with it, Nimitz was not afraid of water, but Qin Shiou's movements were too abrupt, which scared it, and flapped its wings and wanted to fly.
Qin Shiou let go of Nimitz's independent consciousness without receiving it, and then replaced it with Little Chennault, which was also stuffed into the water at once.
Bush Jr. felt that it was not good, and with a clever flap of its wings, it soared into the air, and quacked in the air in a panic, as if to say that Qin Shiou was crazy.
Qin Shiou calmed down, little Chennault did not have an independent consciousness, and Sanshao could obviously only be said to be a bird with a relatively high IQ, not a birdman with an independent consciousness.
Yes, human research believes that only human beings have independent consciousness, and in the modern definition, human beings are high-IQ animals, and if there are other high-IQ beings, they can also be called 'humans'.
In this way, if a bird has an independent consciousness, it will naturally be called a birdman, and if the sperm whale has an independent consciousness, it will be a fishman.
After calming down for a while, Qin Shiou looked up information about sperm whales on the Internet, and he understood what was going on with the 'click' sound made by sperm whales, which was a unique sound wave they could emit, similar to a kind of sonar, through which they could perform echolocation and can also be used as a coding language to communicate.
After searching for a while, Qin Shiou came across a manuscript published by a scientist named Burke Ain at the American Fish Research Institute, who focused on studying the sounds made by whales and dolphins, believing that these sounds are a kind of coding language, which means that whales and dolphins can communicate with each other within the species.
Among them, according to Burke's research, the sound made by sperm whales is a 'click' sound!
However, the scientist installed underwater hydrophones and cameras to monitor sound in all directions, and also used other sophisticated instruments to study the vocalizations of whales and dolphins, but in the end he did not find a pattern in this coding language.
This research paper was not taken seriously, because the complete coding language system is considered one of the characteristics of advanced organisms, and if whales can emit a complete coding language, it means that they belong to advanced organisms!
Obviously, whales are not considered higher creatures now.
In addition, Qin Shiou noticed that at the end of the scientific research manuscript, Burke-Ain came to a conclusion, saying that if there is another animal in the world that can approach humans in consciousness, it is not a human close relative, a gorilla, nor a talking parrot, but a sperm whale!
His argument in favor of this conclusion is that sperm whales have the largest brains of any major species in the world, weighing six times larger than humans!
Naturally, this argument was scoffed at by researchers in the same industry, but Qin Shiou felt that it could stand, because he had now encountered a sperm whale with independent consciousness...... (To be continued.) )
