Chapter 37: Cosmic Kilometers
Luo Ji walked aimlessly, walking forward, the crowd unconsciously dispersed, but surrounded again, many people threw themselves on the ground, lying in front of Luo Ji, treating him as the only god,
Zhang Xuan took Rediaz and Ding Yi, and the three of them returned to Earth, and it was quite interesting to watch the moment when Luo Ji became a god.
In fact, when Luo Ji was attacked by the Trisolarans for the second time, some people worshipped him as a savior.
Ding Yi said: "Is Dr. Luo Ji the one who comprehends the truth of the universe?" I've always been a little bit unconvinced! He has always been a hedonistic man! ”
Zhang Xuandao: "Yes, after Ye Wenjie came into contact with the three-body civilization, Ye Wenjie was thinking about what the civilization of the universe looked like, and after comprehending two axioms and two concepts, and then in front of Yang Dong's tomb, Ye Wenjie told Luo Ji.
made Luo Ji begin to put forward the concept of cosmic sociology, and after that, human beings learned the news of the Trisolaran and fell into a desperate chaos, and his subject was not cared for.
And after that, he became a wall-facing person, you know, he was hedonistic, and it wasn't until Luo Ji's wife and children were hibernated that he really understood the truth of the universe! ”
The three of them stood in the air, looking at Luo Ji and the others below, waiting for the human beings to solve the mystery of the truth of the universe by themselves.
Hines said, "Dr. Luo Ji, what do you want to say now?" Do something! ”
Luo Ji shook his head and said, "What can I do?" What should be done now? What do I want to do? I can't do anything! ”
Jonathan said: "You are a wall-facing person, you can do many things, and you can do anything within the scope of the wall-facing bill!" It's like together!
Although there are still some restrictions in the bill, now you can mobilize almost all the resources of the Earth International, because you are the hope of mankind! See? They think you're a god! ”
Luo Ji thought for a while and said: "Then I have two requirements, first, all cities should restore order and resume normal life, which is understandable!" ”
The crowd of onlookers nodded, and one of them shouted, "I know, who are you?" The Trisolarans want to kill you, and there is indeed a purpose, my God, go on, the world is listening! ”
Hines also nodded and said: "Yes, the whole world is listening, it's just that it will take time to restore stability, because with you, we believe we can do it!" ”
These words caused people to echo each other, and the flame of hope for survival burned again in their eyes, and they needed a savior, a hero, and a dependence.
Luo Ji said: "Okay, the second one, let everyone go home, go back first, let this place be quiet, I still have things, think clearly, think about it, what to do next!" ”
After a brief silence, the crowd hummed softly like a bee, and then the crowd slowly dispersed, winding like moving ants on the road. This is the insignificance of human beings.
The desert became empty, only Luo Ji and Shi Qiang remained, and Zhang Xuan, with Rediaz and Ding Yi, also fell to the ground, but they were still hidden.
Shi Qiang stayed for a long time, he never thought that Luo Ji, who had been saved by him several times, was now actually made a god! Become a messenger of justice!
The world is so absurd! At a time when the world was about to be destroyed, a god appeared, and this god, in his eyes, was just an ordinary person!
"Brother, am I confused?" Shi Qiang said dumbfounded.
"What? Am I not an angel of justice? Luo Ji teased.
"I can't take it!" Shi Qiang scratched his head.
"To be honest, I can't accept it!" Luo Ji smiled bitterly, he clearly knew that people could lift people up to the altar or kick people off the altar. People who are kicked off the altar often die a miserable death.
"Can you tell me about the truth of the universe? Trisolaran: Why did they kill you? Why do you think the droplets will come and kill you? Shi Qiang said curiously.
Luo Ji was silent for a while and said, "Yes, I can tell you that in geometry, there are some self-evident axioms, and in other fields, there are such axioms!"
Therefore, we need to find two axioms for the cosmic civilization, the first one: survival is the first need of civilization, and the second is that civilization continues to grow and expand, in the universe, the total amount of matter remains the same, and the entropy increases but keeps growing, and it is gone! ”
"Is that gone? What big deal can be deduced from just that? Anyone who has studied junior high school physics knows about the increase in entropy! Shi Qiang said with a smile.
"Great history, you can deduce a case from a warhead, a drop of blood, and a hair, and cosmic sociology is to deduce the civilization sample of the galaxy from these two axioms, and science is like this!" Luo Ji said.
"Then tell me more!"
"Yes, the universe is big, but life is bigger, and that's the meaning of the two axioms, life grows exponentially in the universe!
And after the technology of civilization exceeds the threshold, it begins to expand terrifyingly, just like bacteria divide, as long as they divide to ten times, each increase is of the order of magnitude of billions!
At the rate of human reproduction, in a million years, the galaxy can be filled, and a million years is only a small time scale in the universe.
And now we can know that there is a powerful civilization in the universe, and even this civilization is not special, it is universal! So it can hit stars with light particles and destroy a galaxy!
Hearing Luo Ji's words, Shi Qiang's brain was also running: "That exposed star, is this how it was destroyed?" Are you borrowing a knife to kill someone? But how can they listen to you? ”
Luo Ji said: "This leads to the essence of the universe! In the universe, resources are scarce, and the theory of entropy increase is equally applicable to all civilizations!
Therefore, the universe is a gradually depleted forest of survival, and if you want to survive better and longer, expansion and invasion are inevitable!
In the universe, time and space are stretched to the extreme, so communication and exploration become extremely difficult, which requires two concepts to be introduced. That's the chain of suspicion and the explosion of technology!
Dashi, what will you do when you find a brutal bandit in your solitary case? What will you do if the bandits find out? Continue to observe the bandits? No, the bandits might notice!
Sortie? The bandits will have guns in their hands, and if you go up empty-handed, you will surely die! The best thing to do is to leave first and go back and call someone.
And in the universe, you can't call people, this is the chain of suspicion, in human society, because of the common ecological environment, and can communicate, and the basic guarantee of survival, this kind of thing will dissolve after one or two layers.
However, in the vast universe, the chain of suspicion will keep repeating and cannot be dissolved, and the communication in the universe is very dangerous! ”
"How can communication be dangerous?" Shi Qiang didn't believe it.
"That's the second concept, the explosion of technology!" Luo Ji said.
