Chapter 531: Ten Years
Gao Yuan is really worried that Xinghe will become a lifebuoy that is being fought for, a human-shaped medicine jar that can prolong life and keep young forever.
Maybe Big Ivan only needs a little blood to suffice, but what about the others?
Even if a person only needs to draw ten milliliters of Xinghe's blood, then the person who wants to draw blood can also draw Xinghe to dry up.
Gao Yuan was unconsciously on guard, and he even had the urge to flee quickly with Xinghe.
But at this time, Xinghe laughed, and she said with a relaxed face: "Don't be nervous, I know what you're worried about, but you don't have to worry." ”
Looking at the ram and then at Big Ivan, Xinghe smiled: "You only listened to the benefits, don't you want to know what the side effects are?" ”
Gao Yuan said in a low voice: "Say it quickly." ”
Xinghe spread his hands and said: "The robot in my body is about to reach the upper limit of lifespan, which means that the nanobot in my body is dying, and before the nanobot reaches the upper limit of life, it will give me a hint, and now I have received a reminder, just four days ago, well, I still have ten years left to live." ”
Gao Yuan was stunned, not knowing what was going on in his head.
Xinghe said with a worried face: "I don't know how to explain to you, the earth doesn't have this concept, there is no relative noun, I can only say that I still have about ten years of earth time left in my life, and when the time comes, I will die immediately, and after accepting my nanobot, there will be ten years left like me, no matter how good his physical condition seems, when the time comes, he will die immediately, I say so, you understand?" ”
The ram sighed lightly and said, "Understood, actually...... You said. ”
Xinghe looked at Gao Yuan, and then she smiled, "You don't have to worry about that, because you injected my spare nanobot, brand new, and it's a long, long time away from the design life limit." ”
Gao Yuan immediately said, "Is it okay for me to call you back again?" ”
"I said you're unique and can't be copied, so of course not, unless I want to die right away."
Gao Yuan said with great annoyance: "You were ...... at the time You can save a little! ”
Xinghe continued to smile: "Your situation at that time was only that nanobots were not enough, how could you still keep some of them, I will either not give you anything at all, or give it all to you, this choice is not difficult for me to make." ”
The ram suddenly said, "Wait a minute, isn't your situation already immortal?" ”
Xinghe shook her head, and she said with a serious face: "There is an upper limit to the self-innovation of the body, even with the assistance of nanobots, we can use nanobots to get about two thousand years of life, well, except for the complete sleep time during the astronautship, because your body can be infinitely copied and renewed, but your brain cannot, that is to say, your brain will eventually die, and there is a new body without the corresponding memory and personality, this is ...... Vegetative people, you understand. ”
The ram said in a deep voice: "So getting nanobots is not immortality?" ”
"No, eternal life refers to the unity of the body and the mind, and to achieve the immortality of the mind, you need the help of external devices."
After finishing speaking, Xinghe pointed to his head and smiled: "Transfer your thinking and consciousness to the outside, a container of biological robots, and then it will take a little time to completely renew your original body, mainly to completely copy and remake your brain, and then transfer your consciousness and memory back." ”
"That's ...... so"
Xinghe chuckled, "Isn't it easy?" It's not very difficult to achieve, but to complete this step, we have gone through a long time, experienced many failures, and finally became a simple and mature process, but why we have to go through the transfer to retain the original memory, this is a mystery, we started to study, but then no one cared, anyway, we achieved immortality, there is no need to explore the reason why even if the brain can renew itself, it is still brain dead. ”
The ram scratched his head and said, "Sounds like a philosophical question." ”
Xinghe spread her hands, and then she smiled: "I believe that with the genetic technology of the Great Snake people, they have been able to maintain their lifespan for more than a thousand years, or even longer, but they have not achieved immortality, because the civilization that has achieved immortality will inevitably lose its desire to expand, which is very complicated, to put it simply, it is too difficult to find a planet in the universe that is enough to accommodate the newborn population, and the speed cannot keep up with the population reproduction speed under infinite life, so there are two inevitable consequences of obtaining immortality, one, completely losing the interest and necessity of reproduction, two, Since there is no need to reproduce, there is no need to expand. ”
With a light breath, Xinghe continued to smile: "I just hope that you will not fall into the vicious circle of self-destruction of civilization because of immortality, fortunately, it will take you quite a long time to achieve this step, maybe you won't care about it then, now, what we have to do is to draw my blood, separate and cultivate it, and inject it into Big Ivan's body, so that he can gain a healthy life span of ten years, and I only need to write a concept that you can all understand, and tell you the concept and principle of consciousness separation, As for how to give it to the cleaners, that's your business, all I have to do is expect the big snake people to get it. ”
Gao Yuan said a little depressed: "Does that mean that you only have ten years left in your life?" Only ten years? ”
Xinghe whispered, "Are you worried about me?" There's no need, if I find our spaceship, which is the Ark, I can naturally extend my life very easily, if I can't find it, well, I'm willing to accept death, didn't I tell you, our civilization has taken the initiative to abandon eternal life, so if you should die, then go and die, I don't think it's a big problem. ”
For a while, the atmosphere was a little dull, because the three of them were always talking in a language that Big Ivan couldn't understand, so Big Ivan finally said, "What are you talking about?" ”
The ram whispered, "You'll be healthy soon, soon, soon." ”
Gao Yuan exhaled lightly and said, "What's going on with the holy ark, can it continue your life, right?" ”
Xinghe shook his head and said: "No, two completely different technical routes, we may also be injured, the Holy Cabinet can treat me, but it can't extend my life, because the principle of the Holy Cabinet is also nanorobot treatment, the nanobots of the Holy Ark are larger and repair the human body faster, but they can't replace the nanobots in our body, but it is true that the Holy Cabinet can really make vaccines." ”
Xinghe looked at Big Ivan and said, "After he gets the treatment of the Holy Ark, he can live longer, because his disease will be completely cured, so it is possible that he may live for ten years, twenty years, or even thirty years or forty years, but if he accepts my blood, it will only be ten years, and it is impossible to extend the ten years that will not grow old and will not get sick, you have to let him choose for himself." ”
