"The process of collapse," Zhang Jingyi also mused, "is like when a person dies, organic molecules begin to decompose, rematerialize, return to nature, and become elementary particles......"

"Commander Zhang is so right!" "That's what I'm trying to tell you, life is not special in the universe, it's just the last link in the natural evolution," Jones Lulu said. ”

"Why is it the last link that can't evolve further?"

Jones Lulu said, "You may not have noticed, but at the end of the building process, I couldn't add any more bricks. This shows that there is a limit to this process, and it cannot be built forever! ”

"You mean there are limits to the process of moving from inorganic compounds to organic compounds to life?"

"That's right!" Jones Lulu replied, "We, you, have come to the end of our life forms. Don't listen to the misleading so-called science fiction novels called science fiction and real fantasy of you earthlings, such as five-dimensional people, ten-dimensional people, and so on. Life forms are subject to the laws of the universe, so although we have a history of civilization for hundreds of millions of years, we are not superior to you in essence! ……”

"What are the laws of the universe?" Sister Zhen is always unconvinced and grabs the white way.

"The so-called laws of the universe are grand concepts and manifest themselves in all aspects," Jones Moon interjected, "Frankly, it is really impossible to explain what the laws of the universe are, but we can feel that it is everywhere!" ”

"Sister Zhen, can you be patient?" Shu Yunpeng said unhappily: "Should we listen to Lulu's words first?" ”

Sister Zhen stopped talking, and Jones Lulu began to tell again: "The reason why I first explain our position in the universe is because if we do not scientifically recognize our own limitations, we cannot understand why we Jones people gave up ...... this time."

"Isn't it just unproductive? Why are you looking for so many reasons? ”

"Sister Zhen, if you interfere again, I'll kick you out!" Shu Yunpeng said angrily.

"Don't, Colonel Shu, Sister Zhen is quick to talk, let her say it if she wants to, anyway, we have twenty years!" Jones Lulu laughed.

Since Jones Lulu said so, Shu Yunpeng no longer scolded Sister Zhen.

"Colonel," Jones Lulu suddenly asked Shu Yunpeng, "Do you remember some things when you were a child?" ”

"I remember some, but it's just a fragment," Shu Yunpeng thought for a moment and said, "It's incoherent." ”

"Tell me," said Jones Lulu, "whatever you want, just be impressive." ”

"Okay," Shu Yunpeng said, "I remember, when I was about three or four years old, my father came home from work and called me and my brother to him. He took a banana out of his pocket and fed it to my brother and me. Each of us brothers took a bite and ate so deliciously...... At that time, supplies were scarce, and I didn't know where my dad got this banana. Maybe it was sent by a colleague, but he was reluctant to eat it, so he brought it back for our brothers to eat......"

"It's cozy, isn't it?"

"Yes......" Shu Yunpeng's eyes flashed with tears: "Since then, I can't eat bananas anymore I can't taste like that at that time......"

"I'm sure everybody has this kind of memory at some point......" Jones Lulu said, a gloomy look in her eyes, "but we don't have ......."

"You mean, you don't have any memories of your childhood?" Shu Yunpeng said: "How come? ”

"I think there was, but now there is no ......," said Jones Lulu, "I just asked you if you yearn for eternal life, and you all said yes, right?" But I want to tell you, we don't yearn for it, do you believe it? ”

The earthlings present looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

"I know, you don't believe it!" Jones Lulu smiled bitterly: "How beautiful and fascinating it is to live forever for thousands of generations, to live with heaven and earth, and to shine with the sun and the moon!" Are you Jones people mentally troubled? You must think so, right? ”

All the earthlings, no one answered.

"But I have to tell you, eternal life is not a pleasant taste!" "Let's just say me, I'm more than 3.5 million years old, and although I spend most of my time in hibernation, I also spend nearly 200,000 years in waking ......"

"You all know that we Jones people would only live three or five hundred years without cloning technology. I want to live soberly for almost 200,000 years, and I have to have cloning technology to do that. To tell you the truth, I can't remember how many times my body has been cloned! ”

"Isn't it good to be alive or not, whether it's a clone or not!" Sister Zhen couldn't help it again, she couldn't help but look at Shu Yunpeng after she finished speaking, but Shu Yunpeng lowered his head and didn't say anything.

"Yes, it's good, I'm alive and well......" Jones Lulu smiled wryly, "but a lot of things, things that belong to me are missing......"

"What is missing," Xiang Zidan asked curiously, "It actually made you lose interest in eternal life?" ”

"Ego!" Jones Lulu said, "We have lost ourselves! Sometimes I ask myself, who am I? Am I Jones Lulu? Where am I from? Where are they going? What can I prove that I am Jones Lulu! ”

No one spoke, no one asked, and even Sister Zhen was silent. What it is like to lose oneself and no longer remember the way to come, the people of the earth naturally do not know. However, Jones Lulu's expression when she spoke, they still felt an inexplicable shock.

"It is undeniable that the human brain is the most complex thing in the universe, the most advanced compound that has evolved naturally from the universe!" Jones Lulu continued her commentary: "The complexity of its structure is unimaginably ......"

She told Earthlings that only 10 percent of the human brain cells are in a mature state. Because of this, many people imagine what a huge leap in human intelligence would be if all the other 90 percent of brain cells were activated. But in fact, this is impossible.

Why not, because that's a spare part. Think about it, even if only 10% of brain cells are active, there will still be some people who have a nervous breakdown due to overthinking, and even have brain damage and become mentally ill. If all of them are activated, how long will they last?

Thanks to these 90 percent spare parts, the most complex transmission of consciousness in cloning technology is possible. Activating a part of the brain cells to replace the damaged part basically avoids the risk of accidentally cloning the body, loss of consciousness or partial loss and becoming dementia, and effectively ensures that the basic consciousness and knowledge structure of the ontology will not be lost.

"Are you saying that when you clone your body and transmit your consciousness, you can ensure that the basic consciousness and knowledge structure of the ontology are not lost," Xiang Zidan asked, "But you just said that you have lost yourself, what is going on?" ”

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next!" Jones Lulu said, "Basic consciousness is not all consciousness. The complexity of the human brain is unmatched by nothing in the universe! ……”

Although Jones's technology, especially microscopic technology, is extremely advanced, the complexity of the human brain is unimaginable. In the development of consciousness transmission technology, they found that they had to make trade-offs. In order to ensure that the clone and the ontology remain generally consistent and that the clone does not suffer the tragedy of loss of consciousness, they can only take the correctness of grasping the two major billions of indicators of basic consciousness and knowledge structure, and give up some memory fragments, so as not to collapse the brain if it cannot withstand it.

"As a result, we have no fragmentary memories...... "just as Colonel Shu just recalled when he was a child, and I believe, Colonel, you must not remember what happened before your father fed your brothers bananas, and what happened after that!" ”

"That's true!" Shu Yunpeng said: "I was only three or four years old at the time, and my childhood memories were incoherent! After that, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw my mother still mending my clothes, which must have been a year later......"

"Fragmented memories are deleted in the process of consciousness transmission...... Jones Lulu said sadly, "and the memories of feelings, especially those memories before adulthood, are precious memories of you as a living person, but they are all fragmented...... Think about it, Colonel Shu, if you clone once, all these emotional memory fragments of yours will be deleted, how will you feel! ”

"In other words, after cloning, you can't remember those things?"

"Think? It's the same as never existing! Jones Lulu said, "If you clone like us countless times, your personal experience will be a blank!" Every bit of your life has disappeared from your mind. It's like you're jumping out of a crack in a rock. I can't remember your parents, I can't remember the elementary school you went to, and I can't remember your childhood friends...... I'll tell you, I don't remember who my parents were, and I don't have any impression of them! ”

"Then how do you know you have parents?" Sister Zhen asked.

"Go and see the record!" Jones Lulu said, "That's what can be stored in a computer system...... Let me tell you, many of us can't remember our home Jones planet, and we have to fill in this part with the records we keep! ”

"It's kind of scary!" Sister Zhen muttered.

"Memories are different for everyone. Having experienced something together, some people remember more, some people remember less. We Jones people often have a situation like this," said Jones Lulu, "For example, Jones Moon and I have experienced something together, and after both of us have been cloned, she remembers it, but I forget. And then one time she talked about it, and I didn't admit it......"

"yes!" Speaking of which, Jones Moon interjected: "At first we couldn't understand, why did you forget when I remembered you, and so cleanly?" Some people quarrel over this, and even make a lot of unpleasant noise. But then I slowly learned that as long as I saw that the other party couldn't remember, I knew that this part of her memory had been deleted! ”

"I'm tired!" Zhang Jingyi said suddenly.

"Oh, I've been talking about it for a long time, sorry!" Jones Lulu said, "Let's continue tomorrow!" ”
