Chapter 729: Secrets of the Earth
"I'll answer your first question first! The Ancestral Realm can't create life out of thin air! The first question can be given away as a free gift! Then it's time for you to answer my second question! ”
Lin Fei was stunned for a moment.
I feel like I've been fooled.
"Huh! Ahem, I'm going to talk about that question later! Can it not be counted! ”
The black-haired man's face was still indifferent, and he shook his head.
"Rules are rules! It's a pity! You've wasted the first question! I'll ask one of the next two questions, and if you answer correctly, you'll be able to ask me another! ”
After hearing this, Lin Fei couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
It seems that from now on, you can't talk nonsense.
Soon, the second question came up.
"If the caterpillar can break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, then the genes of the caterpillar and the butterfly should be the same, but in fact, the butterfly's genes have undergone abnormal changes after breaking the cocoon and turning into a butterfly!"
"The second question is, since the butterfly metamorphosis has undergone genetic changes, why are the offspring genes of the butterflies laying eggs caterpillars instead of butterflies?"
Butterflies lay eggs, and caterpillars hatch!
This was originally a very common common sense.
However, at this moment, it was an unsolvable problem that stumped Lin Fei.
Let Lin Fei fall into trouble all of a sudden.
"Yes! Since the caterpillar changes its own genes in the process of metamorphosis into a butterfly, which makes the morphology change drastically, why is the offspring of the butterfly egg-laying caterpillar a caterpillar and not a butterfly directly? ”
Can it be reversed after stumbling on genetic mutations?
Lin Fei's eyes widened suddenly, and he was taken aback by his own inference.
But on second thought, it's simply not possible.
Genetic mutations cannot be reversed.
It's like people can't step into the same river at the same time.
There seems to be no pattern in the sequence of genes.
There are almost no identical individuals in the genes of the same species.
Even human twins, although they look the same and have the same voice, have subtle differences in genes, and this difference gets bigger and bigger with age.
Immediately, Lin Fei's brain cells were running rapidly.
I have turned over all the knowledge I have at this moment.
But they haven't been able to find an answer that satisfies them.
Minutes and seconds passed.
An hour later.
The black-haired boy spoke slowly.
"The time is almost up! Is there an answer to the second question? ”
Lin Fei waited for a while, and finally, he had to shake his head.
"I'm sorry, I don't know!"
After Lin Fei said this answer, the whole person felt stunned.
I couldn't help but feel my impulsiveness and stupidity just now.
Unexpectedly, the black-haired man looked at Lin Fei with a little appreciation.
"Congratulations, you answered correctly!"
"Huh? I didn't answer! ”
The black-haired teenager explained slowly.
"Actually, this question, even before Wu Zu passed away, he didn't think about it, so no answer is the right answer! Any far-fetched, or self-conceived clever answer, is self-righteous! The mystery of life is not allowed to be speculated! As a bonus, you can ask a second question! ”
Lin Fei thought for a long time.
So the second question was asked.
"I want to know how to get the Hongmeng Arcana Treasure left by Martial Ancestor?"
"Sorry, I can't answer this question! Because, when Wu Zu suffered an accident, which led to the loss of Hongmeng Treasure, this incident was the biggest regret in his life for Wu Zu! As compensation for the unanswerable question, I present you with a treasure! ”
The glare was gone.
In the void, a bead suddenly appeared.
"This is the 'Chaos Bead' contains a trace of chaotic energy, if you can comprehend the mysteries of chaos, you will have the opportunity to become an ancestral realm! Take it! Cultivating with essence and blood, it can be hidden in the soul space, nourish the soul, and enhance understanding! ”
As he spoke, he handed the Chaos Bead to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei took the Chaos Bead and immediately confessed to the Lord with blood.
Immediately, in the next moment, the Mixed Yuan Bead turned into a streamer and entered Lin Fei's eyebrows, entering the soul space.
"The third question! Caterpillars break out of their cocoons and become butterflies, which is a natural evolutionary choice! The same is true of the cultivation of my human race, only by breaking out of the cocoon like a caterpillar and becoming a butterfly can we continue to surpass ourselves! Then here's the problem! If I am like a caterpillar, after breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly, is it still the same human being? ”
In fact, this question also once appeared in Lin Fei's mind.
Especially after each cultivation improvement.
Lin Fei felt that his own evolution had become more and more powerful, and compared to mortals, it was already far from it.
In my heart, such a thought was born countless times.
"Yes! The higher the cultivation, the more indifferent it becomes, and the more indifferent the eyes of ordinary mortals become! ”
"So, am I still the same person?"
Lin Fei also began to ask himself.
Lin Fei stretched out his hands and couldn't help but let out a soul torture.
But how to answer this third question? Isn't it the same as before, I don't know? ”
Lin Fei couldn't help but think wildly.
Immediately, he shook his head.
A wry smile on his face.
"Just now, it was a stroke of luck! This time, the answer shouldn't be that simple! ”
Actually, this question and answer the philosophical question: Is the present me still the past me?
It's the same kind of problem.
On Earth, there have been countless scholars and philosophers who have discussed this ultimate question, leaving a variety of answers.
Among them, Lin Fei's most impressive and memorable famous sentence is: I think, therefore I am!
Half an hour later.
Lin Fei finally thought of the answer to the question and spoke.
"I replied: I'm still me, it's just a different firework!"
After listening to Lin Fei's answer, the black-haired boy did not rush to announce the answer, but continued to ask.
"Like that?"
"I think the reason why people are human is because we have a unique soul, our human race is congenitally weak, but we can continue to cultivate against the sky, transform ourselves, and break out of the cocoon into a butterfly again and again, although our physical body continues to evolve, and our genes continue to transform, but in essence, the soul of human beings is forever the same!"
Lin Fei didn't know if his answer would satisfy the other party.
Just try to get your thoughts out there.
After a while, the black-haired boy spoke slowly.
"Your answer was beyond my expectations! Congratulations, your answer has been approved by Wu Zu! Now, it's your turn to ask the third question! ”
The third and final question.
Lin Fei was cautious.
After thinking carefully for a long time, he blurted out.
"I've got the third question in mind!"
"I want to know the origin of the Earth and the Human Emperor's bloodline?"
As soon as this question came out, the black-haired boy fell silent.
"I agree that I can't tell you the answer! In exchange for equivalence, I can tell you a secret about the Earth! ”
A secret about the earth?
Lin Fei suddenly became interested.
Something really is wrong with the earth.
Actually, even Wu Zu knew it.
It can be seen that the earth is not simple.
"This side of the universe is actually a prison cage, which is set up to imprison our human race! And every other era, the Warden who is in charge of the starry sky cage of this side of the universe will appear! In this era, the Prison Clan will appear on Earth! ”
