On May 16, 2018, at 17:33 Beijing time, I immediately returned to the rental house after watching the movie "Avengers 3" and wrote this article here with a heavy heart.

I hope that in a hundred years, a thousand years from now, mankind will be able to see and have a reference for them.

I'm not a scientist, I'm not a great man, I can be a fantasist, writing novels that no one reads, talking about comfort, but I know one thing: there is no eternal thing in the world, and the reason why we think that heaven and earth are eternal is because human life is too short.

When the earth, and even the universe, are in a resource crisis, what should highly intelligent species do? The only way to survive is to delay death—death is the ultimate destination, and all that can be done is to delay.

Let's start with a small scale – the Earth.

What do we do when the world is in a resource crisis due to over-demand?

In terms of circumstances: first, the people at that time had the conditions for interstellar migration; Second, people at that time did not have the conditions for interstellar immigration; Third, although the conditions for interstellar immigration are met, only a small part can be sent.

The first point aside, let's look at the second point first: people have not yet been able to find a second home, and with the scarcity of resources, the earth is about to perish, so that a war for resources has broken out, snatching that pitiful "food", and finally producing a hegemon that unified the world.

What will the hegemon do?

He will implement a "reduction plan" to strictly control the population: no older people, no disabled people, no people who have no role in society, a hundred couples can only have one child, and so on, to reduce resource consumption.

Don't doubt that at that time, the so-called morality was not necessarily thicker than a piece of paper, and in the ancient famine years, there were many people who changed children and ate them. In order to survive, both parents can be killed. (I know that in my time, I would be greatly reproached for this statement, but the truth is always cruel and bloody.) ）

Out of the current moral outlook, "the beauty of human nature", when the relatives of the reduced people will rebel, and in the end they will win and become the new overlord, but when they become rulers, they will find that the overlord has no choice but to do so, and must do so for the sake of mankind.

In order to continue, after the reduction has developed, it is to randomly reduce half of the earth's people every ten years, without any emotion or selfishness. And this requires a ruthless executor, as the old saying goes: a saint is unkind and uses the people as a dog, and the executor is such a "saint". Thanos in the movie "Avengers 3" is a typical saint.

The "saint" needs to create a weapon that can take a person's life in an instant, avoid arresting people, to slaughter, and to preserve the last bit of "moral dignity" for mankind.

Writing this, I can't help but think of the myth "Noah's Ark", which says that in the end, there will be this couple left on the earth, with the genes of the world's people, on the barren earth, continuing the last bloodline for mankind until they die.

Let's go back to the first situation - people at that time had the conditions for interstellar migration.

In this way, the score situation is discussed again, and humanity has learned the lesson and is no longer over-demanding or still over-demanding. For the sake of beauty, when people have learned a lesson, they will no longer ask excessively, and as for whether the earthlings invade the alien planet or live in peace with the aliens, it will no longer be discussed, and he will not be left alone.

But even if you don't ask for too much, 100 million yuan, even if you only use a penny a day, it will run out one day, and you will fall into a resource crisis again, what can the ruler do? The only way to do this is to start the reduction plan again and delay the death. Without any selfishness, I just hope that the race can be passed on and continued.

Let's talk about the third situation - the people at that time, although they had the conditions for interstellar immigration, could only send a small part.

The answer is to combine the above two points, those who stay on the earth and go to the alien planet are still the "reduction plan".

In order to contribute to the balance of the universe and to make it less painful when leaving, the "sage" launched a weapon, and in an instant, half of the living beings in the universe were reduced, and the speed of the universe's extinction was doubled, perhaps hopefully waiting for the universe to restart.

From a small perspective, the end of the earth is the end of the universe, and the end of the earthlings is the end of the whole universe.
