Chapter 186: Genes and Memes
"You can't restrain a little bit, willpower? Where is the willpower? Lu Yiming faced this fat man who was a lot taller, and he looked greedy, and he couldn't get angry.
As long as he took an apple and dangled it in front of him, the fat man could not bear it at all, and the horn overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and the whole person became a little crazy, like a dog that had been hungry for several days saw meat and bones......
Guo Weiqiang faced Lu Yiming's reprimand, but he was resigned, and said in a low voice: "No, Captain Lu, I can't control it at all...... Once you eat, you can't control your mouth, as if you're hungry. And I'm really hungry now, and I know it's not right. Hey, what can I do? ”
"Do something else, divert your attention, and control the portion size. Now we have no medical treatment for the time being. ”
A medical expert who followed him said: "The special crystals around his heart urgently need more energy for growth, so they will urge him to overeat, which is no longer a mental illness, but an instinctive physiological phenomenon." ”
"His current gastrointestinal digestion ability is much stronger than before, which is why he feels hungry."
In other words, the appearance of this crystal, changed his behavior. Whether this change in behavior pattern is reversible or not, we still don't know, perhaps with the advancement of science and technology, more relevant information can be excavated to treat this.
Lu Yiming frowned, this troublesome disease is really very tricky.
He turned his head and said to Guo Weiqiang: "Forget it, you can be locked up here for a while." Going out is also causing trouble. ”
Human behavior patterns are influenced by genes and memes.
Genes, that is, the innate physiological instincts of human beings, include the two main lines of survival and reproduction, survival includes eating, drinking, pulling, and sprinkling, and reproduction includes instinctive actions in all aspects such as fertility and aesthetics.
Humans are born with a penchant for food, men like beautiful women, and women like handsome guys, all of which are genetically determined.
For example, the law prohibits certain behaviors, and morality stipulates that a normal person must respect the old and love the young, etc.
These patterns of human behavior are all part of the meme. The culture of each country is different, and the way society operates will be subtle, and in some places people think that individual interests are greater than collective interests, and in some places people feel that the collective is greater than freedom.
That's the power of memes.
Genes and memes regulate all aspects of human behavior. Therefore, human beings living in the world can never achieve true "great freedom", otherwise they are not human beings, and they all become incomprehensible madmen.
When he heard that he was going to be locked up here and starved, Guo Weiqiang was a little reluctant, but he could only reluctantly accept it.
“…… Am I hopeless? As long as no one is in control, I will overeat? What can I do then?! The fat on Guo Weiqiang's face trembled.
Lu Yiming sighed and said, "...... Perhaps there are relevant research materials in this continent. The original inhabitants here may have a solution...... With the power of our own research, it can take a long time to figure out the mysteries. ”
Although Yunhai has some scientific research talents, it is still far from qualified compared to a civilization.
In the next few days, it was not only Guo Weiqiang who experienced this situation, but as the remaining 300 survivors woke up one by one, they all developed similar overeating.
In particular, a few people who eat very fat places will immediately lose their minds as long as they smell the aroma of food, and a certain degree of aggression will appear.
There's no way, for this kind of guy who can't control himself, he can only be locked in a safe house all day long.
As long as they don't give them too much to eat, they will appear to be mentally normal.
The rehabilitation of these people has become a big problem that has always been difficult one after another.
……
"Humans are too weak...... Both physically and mentally, they are all too weak. ”
After Ding Yuan learned about this, he privately gathered a small number of superpowers and held a meeting: "Everyone, through the scientific research of this accident, it can be seen that a small storm above the Yanghe River can wipe us out. ”
"We can't keep this state of military alert all the time, we have to breathe the air outside sooner or later."
"We were able to avoid the white fog this time because it was colored and could be seen by the eye. But what if next time, something you can't see or smell? Our overall immunity is too poor. ”
"So, you have to take every possible opportunity to improve yourself...... It may take some time to translate the documents, but in any case, we will need to have some people to go deep into the continent and explore more confidential information a second time. ”
After hearing the news, the faces of everyone in the conference room were not very good-looking.
The state of this continent is too dangerous.
Everywhere are terrifying creatures born out of meat balls, all roaming, preying, and even killing each other.
Lu Yiming, Shi Dayong, Zhong Peng, these elite superpowers, it is already so difficult to fight one, and there is a certain element of luck, once again daring to explore deeply, it is not too much to call it nine deaths and one life.
"What do you think?" Ding Yuan sat in the middle of the table and asked, "Is there anyone volunteering to go?" ”
Zhong Peng coughed for a while, lowered his head, and did not answer.
He certainly didn't want to.
At first, I didn't know about the disaster on this continent, and I was able to venture hard, but now I know the truth...... He really didn't have the courage to do that.
He was originally an otaku and didn't care much about the development of the whole society, and there were many things that Lu Yiming had driven.
"I think this plan is desirable, and we have to get the relevant scientific and technical information...... I'm willing to go. ”
It was Shi Dayong who spoke, and most of the patients who suffered from bulimia were soldiers under his command. From that point of view, he had to take this risk.
Moreover, if he is unwilling to express his position, it is estimated that no one will.
"It still depends on the specific location of the laboratory, if it is thousands of kilometers deep into the mainland, then forget it. How many people went in, how many people died, our Yunhai couldn't bear such a big damage. If near the coastline, barely ...... You can also give it a try. ”
Lu Yiming's face was not very good-looking, and he said a few words.
In fact, he didn't want to ...... in his heart Even if the second exploration mission is for the whole group, what if you lose your life?
Lu Yiming is not the kind of saint who selflessly dedicates, and his life still has to come first.
"I agree with Lu Yiming." Liu Xuwei sat there in a daze, and he didn't want to...... For him, the sea of clouds is already heaven, isn't it fragrant to pick up girls every day? If you have to go to the depths of the continent to fight monsters, it's like a death act!
Of course, if the reward is enough and the risk can be tolerated, he is actually okay.
Liu Xuwei is really too poor, before the apocalyptic disaster, he was a rich second generation, he was used to spending lavishly, and he couldn't live a hard life. Instead of living a life of poverty, it is better to take the risk and take a chance.
"I don't have a problem." Li Yao raised his hand and didn't say anything, he and Shi Dayong themselves are professional soldiers in the special team, and they still have some sense of honor.
Ding Yuan could probably guess the psychological activities of everyone, except for the two professional soldiers, most of them had some ideas in their hearts.
He sighed and said, "There is no hurry in this matter, after all, it involves everyone's life safety...... So, wait, wait for the final decipherment of the data, and then we have to make some more military preparations. Maybe after a while, this white fog will disperse directly, and this continent will enter a safe period again? ”
"But I still hope that you can be mentally prepared for the second expedition, not for anything else, but for ...... Our future! ”
"Our Yunhai must become stronger in order to have a real future."
"If it really doesn't work...... I'm also able to play. ”
At the end of this meeting, no clear results were discussed, and Lu Yiming's mood was not very good.
He also has some psychological baggage, and with not very easy steps, he and Zhong Peng took the elevator back to the 56 community under their jurisdiction.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator door, I heard the greetings of "Captain Lu" and "Captain Zhong".
Obviously, people are full of respect for Lu Yiming and Zhong Peng, who came back from the expedition.
"Captain Lu, how is Guo Weiqiang's treatment?" As soon as I looked up, I saw Guo Weiqiang's mother.
"Oh, now you're sane...... He is still hospitalized. But you can give him a video call or something, and that's fine. ”
"That's good, that's good." The middle-aged woman breathed a sigh of relief visibly, "Captain Lu, this is the latest ripe melon, I'll give you one." ”
"Haha, no, I don't need to."
For the people of the 56th community, the current quality of life is much better than when they first landed in the shelter, the variety of food has begun to become more abundant, the latest batch of white feather chickens have been freshly slaughtered, as long as you have a little spare money in your hands, you can buy fresh chicken.
There are also relatively fast-ripening vegetables and fruits, such as strawberries and melons, which have also been plucked from the branches and can be easily purchased in supermarkets.
Some of the clothes made of golden baby spinning silk have also begun to sell normally, this kind of clothes feel very good, and it is not easy to be stained, buy one, you can wear it for a year or two.
The only drawback is that the colors and styles are relatively monotonous, and there is no way to make them as colorful as before.
There are also a variety of simple video games, which have also been made, everyone can fight landlords, play mahjong, and play double buckles online, and there is no simpler way of entertainment in the world than video games.
Anyway, the age of this kind of thing is quite good, basically everyone has one.
High-quality mobile phones, in addition to the rapid battery decay, as long as there is no water, it is not a problem to use it for five or six years, and you don't even have to worry too much about battery decay, just charge it a few more times.
There are some private reserves for electronic products, at least in the past few years, there is no need to worry.
All in all, all of these things add up, the happiness level of the 56 communities is quite good, the employment rate is also quite high, and the current per capita income can be regarded as the upper reaches of the 50 communities.
