Extra 1: Survey of Indigenous Civilization (10,000 words!) )
It is now the 10,000th year since the new human civilization came to the Great Magellanic Cloud......
Several young men and women were staying at a starry harbor, looking at the starry sky in the distance. In particular, the distant Milky Way is clearly visible from this angle.
Daze is a very common physiological phenomenon for human beings, the eyes are staring at something, and they are in a state of not responding to other things, or they are in a state where the brain is blank. Some people are so gifted that they can be in a daze for hours.
However, once transformed into a transhuman, one no longer has this emotion. It's also very interesting for a transhuman not to think about this behavior.
"When, when, when!" The bell rings in the exchange, it's time to get off work.
Lin Yueyue suddenly came back to her senses from this state of daze, it was really a long and empty day.
She said with a little complaint: "The exchange has been open for so long, and there are no customers, it's really boring!" When will an alien come? ”
Another female companion smiled: "Don't think too much, in this remote corner, even if you wait until your face is full of wrinkles, there will be no guests." ”
"I'll never have a wrinkled face in my life!" Lin Yueyue touched her face, she was just 24 years old, an age full of youth and vitality.
The Large Magellanic Nebula is a galaxy that is younger than the Milky Way, and occasionally produces cosmic disasters such as supernova explosions, so the distribution of intelligent life is more sparse than that of the Milky Way. The number of interstellar civilizations that have been born is also somewhat smaller.
According to the results of this 10,000-year survey, the density of civilization here may be about half less than that of the Milky Way.
For these young people, their lives have only been spent in a short period of 20 years, and a year or two of waiting is a long time. But for the entire universe, a thousand years, two thousand years, is just a snap of a finger.
"Let's go, let's have dinner!"
"It's time to get off work!"
"What's the board game tonight?"
"Those boys want to play games online, not board games."
"That's not going to work, you have to participate in group activities."
The scale of this exchange is not large, it is about the size of an aircraft carrier-class ship, and it stays near the cosmic strings, responsible for communicating with the coming and going civilizations.
For the current new human civilization, the purpose of the existence of traditional human beings is only for the better population iteration of the entire civilization. At present, the remaining traditional human beings are mostly young people, and they need to better understand themselves in their human lives, and the so-called work is just a supplement to self-knowledge.
The so-called work is also an aspect of self-awareness. It is impossible for a person who does not work to know himself completely.
Everyone ate together in the cafeteria and chatted at the same time.
"I'm a little tired of playing board games, too."
A boy suddenly thought of something, "Or...... We can travel to other planets! I've heard that an interesting planet of life has been discovered 20 light-years away and that the atmosphere on it is perfect for humans to breathe! There are some interesting cultural phenomena on the planet, hehe! ”
"yes, yes, our team hasn't been out on a trip for a long time. Sister Yueyue, let's go on a trip together, shall we? ”
Every squad has a perfect political organization, just like a small society, and Lin Yueyue is naturally the person in charge of this small society.
Faced with the instigation of her companions, she was slightly moved: "This is ...... Not so good. We've only been here for six months...... Haha, although I also kind of want to hang out. ”
"Six months is not short."
"Lin Yueyue, it is our right to take a vacation. If you stay here, you won't make any progress! There are no guests here at all, just a waste of life for no reason. I'm in a daze every day! These girls, who were slightly two years younger, actually hugged Lin Yueyue and lied to her.
The girls of this era are all a little cute and stupid, and Lin Yueyue suddenly felt a little difficult to resist: "Okay, don't hug me...... I'm going to ask the adults for a leave, so don't do it yourself. ”
"Hee-hee, Sister Yueyue is the best!"
The so-called superhuman group is what they call "adults".
Because the gap between individual abilities is too great, like mountains and gravel, the sea and water droplets, traditional human beings are no longer engaged in scientific research, and their dependence on superhuman groups is also increasing.
All in all, these young people can be regarded as the happiest generation in history. Boys and girls are all innocent and kind, and the pressure of studying is not too heavy, they talk about love when they are young, play games, and when they are bored, they can visit the planets in the Big Magellanic Nebula, and their lives are very nourishing
Faster-than-light ships have been able to reach a hundred times the speed of light, making it easy to travel through the Great Magellanic System.
However, because they have too little experience and low pressure, most young people are always a little naïve and difficult to fully recognize themselves. This has become a very headache for the entire civilization layer.
In the transhuman community, there was once such a plan: if the next generation of young people were placed in the virtual world to re-experience the history of human development, then there would be basically no problem in cultivating this aspect.
However, after careful discussion, the management finally rejected this plan, because most of the talents cultivated according to this method are homogeneous.
After such a long evolution, the transhuman group no longer needs more homogeneous thoughts, but more diverse, different thinking.
Therefore, the current talent training plan adopts the current line of thinking, which is basically stocking.
It's a good idea to let young people form their own social groups, deal with some exchange affairs, get in touch with aliens, investigate indigenous civilizations, or form their own political forces.
Even if the probability of the birth of talents in this stocking program is not too high, and the vast majority of people are not self-aware, as long as one or two talents are born, it is not a failure. Anyway, there are so many superhumans like time.
"It is said that adults are thinking about death!" On the way to the faster-than-light communication site, Lin Yueyue suddenly thought of something and said with a serious face.
"Huh? Death? Superhumans also die, can't be? They don't age, how can they die. ”
"Not death in the biological sense, but ...... Hey, I don't know. Do you think, a civilization can't be a pool of stagnant water, there are people who join, and naturally there will be deaths, even if the speed of our civilization population iteration is not fast, it is impossible for all of them to live forever, right? ”
"It makes sense, but who's going to die."
Lin Yueyue licked her lips and said, "Your question is actually not a problem, in fact, after changing your thinking, you are no longer afraid of death." Maybe someone has lived enough...... We're still a long way from it anyway! They are just seriously discussing, this is an obstacle that every high-level civilization needs to face. ”
Not long after, the group took an anti-gravity speed car and came to the faster-than-light communication site. This is a faster-than-light communication network built by human beings themselves, so the cost seems to be very cheap.
They use this machine every day to communicate with headquarters.
"Well, we're really stupid compared to the grown-ups!"
Lin Yueyue carefully wrote today's work report and said that nothing happened today.
She wrote another note asking for a leave of absence, and her team wanted to go out and investigate the sociology of alien Aborigines.
Soon, the light cluster in the middle of the instrument lit up, and it was a superhuman possessed into a robot by means of remote transmission of consciousness.
"It's no problem to take leave, you guys can go, I'll be in charge of this trading market for the time being." The robot made a gesture and said.
"Yay! That's nice! Several girls hugged the round robot, kissed him a few times, and ran away.
Only the robot remained in place, stunned for 0.001 seconds.
He couldn't help but sigh, it feels good to be liked by young girls......
Now the atmosphere of the whole civilization is quite satisfying. Raising the next generation is like having a pet.
A few hours later, Lin Yueyue and the others began to happily sort out the necessary materials before departure, while humming a song, like a lamb full of vitality.
As the leader of the whole team, she has a lot of responsibility and must be prepared accordingly, whether it is survival or other aspects.
Human beings are already a fifth-level civilization, and with the efforts of superhumans, all kinds of science and technology have begun to become incredible, and traditional humans only need to learn to use them, but in the face of the vast universe, they still can't pack tickets and will not encounter risks.
"Conta, are you going?" Lin Yueyue asked a green plant.
The plant, which is just over a person's height and bears fruit, is a regular ornament in the exchange, and is usually used to purify the air.
"Where to go?"
"Alien planets."
The plant was usually motionless, and it was too lazy to take care of people, but at this moment, it suddenly swayed its branches and said feverishly: "I'll go!" I'll go! ”
"I'm going to spread my children and grandchildren on another planet, and I'm still able to feed you, please, let me go...... Miss Lin Yueyue, your appearance is like a beautiful moonlight. I beg you, and I will pay you a tribute. ”
As he spoke, a few nuts hanging from the branches and leaves fell.
Lin Yueyue laughed, "Okay, okay, just go, don't talk so much nonsense." You sycophant makes me goosebumps. ”
With a wave of her hand, she lifted the plant that weighed more than 100 catties.
Today's human beings, through genetic fine-tuning, are indeed much stronger than in the past.
"Ms. Lin Yueyue, you are really powerful, like the most ferocious beast in the forest!"
Conta began to frantically pat himself on the back. In its mind, most creatures like to be praised for their strength, and this lady must be too.
Lin Yueyue's face turned red suddenly, she also felt that she was such a lovely girl, and moving such a big tree was indeed a bit unladylike.
Conta continued to pat himself on the back: "Ms. Lin Yueyue, your strong muscles remind me of the white-haired orangutan of Planet Lyninor, the muscles of your whole body are as strong as the white-haired orangutan!" ”
Lin Yueyue's face turned from red to black, and she threw the sapling on the ground at once: "Go by yourself!" ”
……
The next morning, everyone entered a shuttle on time, and the noise of chirping was like a flock of sparrows.
"The first alien trip in my life."
【Selfie】
【Selfie】
"Haha, that's what benefits you have when you're an adult!"
"What's the matter!"
There are also couples who are feeding each other, and this age is a good time to fall in love.
Single dogs are envious and jealous, and someone asked the artificial intelligence to send out an electronic broadcast: "Please don't abuse dogs openly in public." ”
"Please don't spoil the social climate!"
The couples all stopped, their faces reddened.
Lin Yueyue counted the number of people and counted all the daily necessities before relieving herself.
"Everyone, be quiet for a moment, the target of our trip this time is an indigenous planet called Kadeer, which has an atmosphere suitable for humans to breathe, and its gravity is about 1.1 times that of Earth."
"In order to avoid microbial infection, we need to inject several broad-spectrum immune agents in advance here. DX-1233, DX-1899......"
Lin Yueyue reported the names of several drugs: "If there is really an unknown bacterial infection, the backup drugs are as follows......"
"Specific antimicrobial drugs need to be debugged on the spot, and Guan is responsible for them. Please do not breathe the local air until you have completed your immunization. ”
“……”
10,000 years ago, it would not have been possible to have such a powerful broad-spectrum immune agent, but now it is a different era, and the widespread use of biological nanorobots has led to the emergence of some more incredible biological functions.
According to the research ability of the superhuman group, it doesn't take much effort to study some effective drugs for these children.
"Okay, without further ado, after the injection of the drug, everyone can go into hibernation......"
"Even though our ship is fast, it's still months away."
"Hey, you two...... Say what about you! Don't kiss there and go into hibernation!! Lin Yueyue couldn't help but jump, no matter what era, there are always people who don't obey the rules.
The dynamic hibernation device is a little different from the previous frozen hibernation, this hibernation chamber uses a small amount of anesthetic gas, the whole body will not be completely frozen, and the body has certain active skills.
The advantage of this is that the recovery is very fast, and it only takes a few hours to regain mobility, instead of the usual recovery time of a week.
……
Three months passed quickly.
When everyone is awakened by artificial intelligence, they see a blue planet from the window, with a lot of water, oxygen, and lush primeval forests.
"Is this the planet of life?"
"In the past, you could only see it in the virtual world!"
For these students, who have just lived for more than 20 years, a planet that can give birth to life is indeed quite a novelty.
Above the planet's atmosphere, there are several spaceships of alien civilizations that also seem to be investigating the planet.
"Does there happen to be an alien civilization? What a coincidence. ”
Lin Yueyue knew that the logo on the surface of this alien spacecraft was called "Ingrand Civilization", which was a third-level civilization that had just possessed the means of space string navigation.
Cosmic sociology and interstellar etiquette are courses that contemporary human beings must learn. When it comes to interstellar diplomacy, it must be dealt with seriously.
Lin Yueyue combed her appearance and took the lead in sending a message: [Ingland Civilization Fleet, hello, we are the New Human Civilization C-00192 Patrol Squad. I'm the commander of the squad branch, Lin Yueyue. 】
"Dear New Human Civilization, hello, here is the investigation data of our fleet in the past few hundred years, please receive ......"
The leader of the Ingrand civilization was really shocked when he saw the alien spaceship that suddenly appeared around him. When I found out that it was a spaceship of a new human civilization, I slowly put my mind at ease......
In their eyes, the new human civilization is a relatively friendly and reputable level 5 civilization, and they often release some exploration missions in various exchanges. As long as the low-level civilization explores a certain unknown planet and sends the first-hand information over, it can get a small amount of rewards, which can be regarded as the easiest task, and it is also a small help for the new human beings to the low-level civilization.
At the same time, these low-level civilizations also took on the task of propagating the trading market.
When it comes to interstellar diplomacy, everyone in the spaceship gets serious, and this is not the occasion to laugh. As a small group, all their every move is to be judged by the behavior score.
The "behavior score" also determines whether a person's achievements in a lifetime meet the conditions for fully knowing themselves.
Lin Yueyue said solemnly in the video call: "We have received the information you sent, and we need to conduct a series of assessments, please wait." ”
The so-called "evaluation" is naturally analyzed and calculated by the artificial intelligence in the spaceship, and the amount of work involving humans is very small. But it is this very small amount of work that is related to the honor of the entire team and the evaluation of the group, and if it is not done well, it will be criticized and deprived of some authority.
"Sister Yueyue, you're so cute when you're serious. This is the first time I've encountered an alien in my life! ”
Lin Yueyue turned off the video and glanced at her.
"With aliens here, we can't play to our heart's content! What to do? One of the girls was a little anxious.
"The aliens should leave when they see us present, don't worry, just wait for a while."
"When I didn't see an alien, I yelled that I wanted to make contact with each other, and when I saw an alien, I had to drive each other away. I don't know what the hell you're thinking. ”
After the evaluation, the team sent a small amount of amoeba points to the opponent.
Sure enough, after some preparations, this alien fleet hurriedly said goodbye to humanity and prepared to leave. Just kidding, staying with a fifth-level civilization, no matter how big the third-level civilization leader is, he will become nervous, and leaving quickly is the right solution.
"May your civilization always progress."
"May your civilization always progress."
After saying hello, the alien fleet fled quickly.
As for...... Why should we always progress, these men and women naturally know.
Although they have not experienced the process of the struggle of new human civilization in the complete virtual world, they have read Zhang Yuan's "The Great Fleet of Deep Space", so they have understood the spiritual core.
Although this understanding is only the most superficial understanding, it is also known that this ritual cannot be broken.
"Hey, it's really not easy for us to develop into the way we are now. We used to be like this starfleet, wandering all the time......"
"yes."
"Good luck to you."
I don't have much sense of superiority, but I deeply sigh that the development is not easy, and bless this alien fleet.
"Actually, I still think that we are too stupid now, and it is the right solution to quickly transform into a superhuman."
Some people are complaining about their poor IQ, and for most high-tech tools, they only use them, and it's too difficult to understand how they work.
"Yes, the strength of the current civilization actually has nothing to do with us. We...... You can't do anything, not even repair your ship. ”
"You can't say the same either, for there will be a time when you will be converted!"
"Let's not talk about that, we're out to play."
[The first round of security checks, begins.] 】
The spacecraft dispatched a large group of densely packed, swarm-like intelligent robots to take the lead in a rough examination of the planet. After no suspicious risks were found, the spacecraft entered the atmosphere at a tangential angle.
Blue sky, white clouds, mountains and sea.
A round of orange stars, hanging in the sky, the stars nourish everything on the planet.
The geology of the star has something in common with the former earth, so it has become a tourist attraction for humans. The only difference is that the plants here all look like mushrooms, and the largest can even reach a height of 10 meters and a diameter of 5 meters.
And there are many unique biological structures that can photosynthesize here, which make the distribution of plant colors colorful.
After the spacecraft landed, the "Conta" plant from the Green Leaf Alliance took root in this piece of land.
It sows its seeds one by one on the ground, and in a few months, a large alien forest will appear here.
"You're going to stay here and not go back?" Lin Yueyue asked with a little curiosity.
At the same time, she also commanded her companions to set up a small base here, everything is fully automated, and there is no need for much management.
"yes, not going back."
"Stay here alone?!"
"Any questions?" "Without me, there would be no wisdom and no traditional culture for future generations," Conta said. So I have to stay here and pass on the knowledge. This is the regular practice of my civilization. ”
"Ah, you really have the courage. That's a big deal. ”
The boys and girls all shivered quietly, and the eyes of the sapling were a little different. In the past, everyone thought that these plants were synonymous with unreliability, and they couldn't do anything, not even sycophants.
But now the senses have changed a lot, and inheritance is really a very serious matter.
It's okay for humans to travel here for a few days, but it's terrifying to live here forever.
"These ...... Plants, as expected, are different existences. Since it wants to stay here, let it stay here......"
"Good luck, Conta, we'll be here with you for a while. Hehe, give me a watermelon that knots on you. ”
"No problem." The plant grinned.
It took about three hours of work to complete a preliminary small base.
Students engaged in medicine have adjusted the latest specific immune drugs and injected them into everyone, and after completing this step, the probability of microbial disease will be reduced again.
All of them opened their glass masks and came into contact with nature face to face, and they were running and jumping on the ground, having a great time.
"The air here is ...... It's so pure! ”
"Don't touch the powder on the fungus, and don't touch the dirt or pollen." Seeing that a girl wanted to pick flowers too, the doctor hurriedly said: "Although everyone already has an immune system, it does not rule out the possibility of allergies." ”
Lin Yueyue waved her hand: "Okay, everyone, if you want to go out to climb the mountain, enjoy the two-person world, and play in the water, you can take your own small shuttle to your respective destinations, but don't act alone, don't play with fire!" If you burn the primeval forest here, it is against the law! ”
"Had to come back here in the evening. After all, it's an alien planet, stay safe and take responsibility for yourself! ”
"The rest can rest here, or you can go with me to investigate the indigenous civilizations on the planet!"
"Oh yes!"
Everyone cheered loudly, enjoying the purest freedom, as if even the air of the alien planet was fresher.
Not long after, Lin Yueyue took more than 30 people to board a shuttle and go to the other side of the planet. For a few people such as Lin Yueyue, the cultural landscape is more interesting than the natural landscape.
"According to previous investigation records, there is a small intelligent tribe in the southwest of the continent, and there is a small island on it, called Tata Island."
"The target of this cultural survey is this small tribe of wisdom."
There has always been a folk custom among the tribe that puzzled previous expeditions: on special days, the inhabitants of the island would write a five-pointed star pattern on their bodies with red paint, and then carry fake guns made of wooden sticks and solemnly start marching.
They will also be on the beach, drawing some strange symbols.
"This is an alien language of an interstellar civilization, and the words may mean 'Badala Military Base.'"
In addition, the islanders also made some strange hats out of wood to wear on their faces, which are like two small round holes dug in the coconut shell, through which they can be observed.
The natives used to stare at the leaves and make a fake spaceship out of wood and hay as a totem.
"Wait a minute, fake ship? Really? ”
After listening to these descriptions, a boy was a little skeptical: "Isn't this an indigenous civilization without technology?" They still know about spaceships? We past visitors should strictly follow the no-contact policy, right? How could they possibly know about the ship? ”
"Of course it's true, and the no-touch regulations also exist. Guess why this indigenous civilization has become like this? ”
After pondering for a while, everyone speculated: "Could it be that there is still a First Age intelligent civilization on this planet?" ”
"It could also be done by other aliens."
Lin Yueyue chuckled: "Do you know why you set up the 'Indigenous Civilization No Contact Ordinance'? ”
One of the boys thought for a moment and replied, "It seems to be ...... In order not to interfere with the normal development of indigenous peoples. We are not yet able to interfere with indigenous peoples in the same way that the Enlightener civilization did, and most of them will be positive for a long time to come. ”
"Of course it's not as simple as you think...... Just investigate this indigenous civilization and you'll know. ”
Lin Yueyue showed a sly expression: "I think I can use this as an argument to write a paper on the sociology of the universe, because it involves the formation and birth of the non-contact regulations of indigenous civilizations. ”
"Write a paper...... It's troublesome. Suddenly, several boys complained.
"Okay, it's up to you whether you write it or not, anyway, as long as you're responsible for investigating the truth, I'll write it myself." Lin Yueyue spread her hands and sighed in her heart.
In fact, not everyone can be transformed into a superhuman.
The vast majority of traditional human beings, after living this life, will still be screened out and enter the virtual world for reincarnation. After the reincarnation is over, if you don't stand out, you will end your life.
Most people know this and have undergone a rigorous education.
But human inertia is deep-rooted, and in such a relaxed environment, the probability of becoming a superhuman is less than one in a thousand.
Lin Yueyue shook her head and abandoned these nonsense thoughts: "Okay, turn on the anti-gravity engine, lower the sound of the spaceship, and we will arrive at our destination soon." ”
In the middle of chatting, the spaceship was suspended at an altitude of about a hundred kilometers. Looking down through the binoculars, there was actually a group of monkey-like creatures carved out of a wooden fake airplane, and a group of monkeys, praying frantically beside them.
"Assi, it's spicy!"
"Assibarado!"
Curious about the absurdity of the islanders, they snooped from afar and unleashed a bee-sized spy robot for a close-up encounter.
Lin Yueyue named this strange behavior "spaceship worship".
The reason is that in extremely distant ancient times, this indigenous civilization has been interfered with by interstellar civilizations.
The inhabitants of Tata Island, the "Giant Bird", made of wood and grass, are actually imitations of alien spaceships that once visited the planet.
"We've got to look for proof! Yes, proof! ”
After two days of field investigations, this team really found traces of the alien fleet visiting the planet.
"There was actually an interstellar war here?!"
"This ...... It's an electromagnetic cannonball, right? It can't be a natural occurrence, and the natives don't have the ability to process this cannonball. ”
In the hands of one of the boys, he was holding a bullet-like metal substance, the surface of which had rusted, and its age had been determined to take about 10,000 years.
"And these, it seems to be plastic waste."
This historical fact surprised and delighted everyone, interstellar archaeology is a popular and interesting subject. After all, the Great Magellanic Nebula is equivalent to human territory, and it would be interesting to dig up more history.
Through field research and bold speculation, people gradually understand why the indigenous people have such a strange cultural phenomenon.
The interference of interstellar civilizations in indigenous civilizations is deep-rooted and permanent.
Lin Yueyue wrote in her paper: "...... The history of spaceship worship can be traced back tens of thousands of years, when two interstellar civilizations, probably all of them were third-level civilizations, and for some reason, there was a fierce war near this planet. ”
"One of the civilizations has built a makeshift base near Tata Island."
The aliens in the base are very arrogant to the aborigines of the island, and do not regard them as intelligent creatures at all, and persecute and drive them away at will.
As a result, natives have a natural fear of aliens.
It is also normal for this kind of thing to happen, and some civilizations strictly regulate their own history; Some civilizations think that it is nothing to bully the natives, and it is natural for the strong to bully the weak. There's not much to say about that.
Fortunately, after the interstellar war, another relatively friendly interstellar civilization was victorious, and they were very friendly to the natives of this planet, not only giving them names, but also giving them some living supplies.
Even using his own spaceship to perform for the inhabitants of Tata Island, for these natives, the iron bird that can fly in the sky is undoubtedly a miraculous existence.
The friendliness of this interstellar civilization gave these indigenous people the opportunity to observe their daily lives up close, and as a result, some different cultures were born.
They found that these interstellar aliens never hunt and fish, nor do they collect fruits, they just put a strange thing on their faces (in fact, it is a power armor helmet) and then keep flipping through some white metal sheets (smart terminals), and some steel giant birds (transport ships) will appear in the sky to send a steady stream of daily necessities.
There were also mountain-tall steel giant tortoises (large transport ships) that brought more than they had ever seen.
"Everything from the interstellar civilization is far beyond the imagination of the islanders, so they think that there is only one explanation for all this, and that is that these steel giant birds and giant ships are gods! And the alien march and playing with the computer in helmet is actually praying to the gods for their supplies. ”
In this case, the inhabitants of Tata Island were dressed up in a similar way during the ceremony.
"They put coconut shells on their heads and used wooden helmet armor to mimic power armor."
As time passed, the aliens evacuated the planet, but the aborigines of the island still hoped to get more supplies for the life of civilized society, so the natives of the island began to imitate the behavior of the interstellar soldiers to pray to their gods, such as marching with guns, performing flag-raising ceremonies, wearing homemade coconut helmets to look at the leaves, and they also made a fake spaceship out of wood.
Because they thought that the steel giant birds they had seen before might be males, and they had made a female spaceship that could attract the male spacecraft to mate.
On this "mother ship", there are also some symbols of reproductive organs.
Lin Yueyue wrote in her sociological investigation report: "Decades have passed, and the aliens have not returned, but they still insist on praying, believing that as long as they persevere, sooner or later, their gods will come back and bring them endless supplies so that they can live a happy and beautiful life from now on." ”
"A hundred years have passed, a thousand years have passed, ten thousand years have passed, and the natives have long forgotten the original purpose of this ritual, they only know that it is a sacred prayer ceremony. Too much time has passed, and this ritual has become a religious culture, deeply imprinted in the bones of indigenous civilizations. ”
"The natives made spaceships out of twigs and wood, carried sharpened sticks and marched neatly, painted medals common in interstellar civilizations on their chests, and reverently summoned the gods of spaceships to come to the island once again to bring them medicine and weapons."
"This myth and legend has been circulating within the tribe, and it has been circulating...... Religious culture has become more and more perfect, forming a whole set of occupations, some responsible for prayer, some responsible for carving, and some responsible for presiding over sacrifices. In this way, a division between classes is formed. ”
At the same time, the indigenous civilization has all but lost its upward momentum because of its entrenched religious system. When the natives have nothing to do, all they think about is begging for the gods, not relying on themselves. ”
It can be seen that for interstellar civilizations, some simple and friendly behaviors can help the indigenous people get rid of the existential crisis in the short term, but in the long run, they may have a great negative impact on this civilization.
"This is also the original intention of the no-contact rule when we encounter the indigenous civilization of the planet. Members of the new human civilization are not allowed to appear in the field of vision of the indigenous civilization. ”
"The intervention of outsiders will deteriorate over a long period of time, and the good effects may be far less than the bad ones. The evolution of civilization is too cumbersome, and our civilization has not yet fully grasped its specific operational steps. ”
"Unless we are willing to cultivate this civilization for a long time, give them a plan that will last tens of thousands of years, and regularly revise the ideology of this civilization. But the Big Magellanic Nebula is still too big, and there are too many civilizations that do nothing, is it really necessary? If a civilization wants to develop, it must ultimately rely on itself. ”
After Lin Yueyue finished writing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her mood was slightly depressed.
How fragile a civilization is, in the long course of development, what was originally an inconspicuous splash of water may evolve into a huge obstacle to subsequent development thousands of years later. There are too many of these inexplicable and unpredictable butterfly effects......
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but admire even more the predecessors who led the new human civilization to its current status.
It's not easy to develop so far.
"May our civilization always progress."
