Chapter 89: State Funeral Ceremony
Since it was determined that the metal nut was indeed not human, in addition to excitement and shock, people also had a sense of eagerness to try.
There is no point in discussing it like this, and people have to go underground again to find out the full truth!
"So, that's all for this meeting......"
Yu Yifeng finally made a decision.
He also concluded with a brief summary of people's current work goals. "The initial translation work can start first. The video in our hand has recorded a lot of indigenous language and related actions, and we can roughly guess some meanings......"
"In this way, as long as there are some Turkish language translators, there can be a lot less communication barriers."
Hearing this, an expert in informatics hurriedly packed up the ticket.
"That's fine."
Ever since they came into contact with the Green Light Civilization, they have been working on the problem of language translation. These indigenous languages don't seem very complicated and should be quick to figure out...... Although the information in it is incomplete, it can be translated a little bit.
Yu Yifeng nodded and continued: "The screening of explorers will also begin immediately, including sociologists, linguists, soldiers, journalists, and so on...... After the state funeral, we set off immediately! I'm personally responsible for this part. β
"Adjournment!"
Of course, the list of explorers must have included him.
How could he, Yu Yifeng, be absent from such an expedition?
Even if someone objects, they can go back on the grounds that "the danger can be controlled......
At present, the atmosphere of the whole civilization is still quite heavy. People were all immersed in an atmosphere of sadness.
Television and newspapers are constantly broadcasting the deeds and contributions of these seven deceased during their lifetimes to commemorate their contributions to the new human civilization.
Their death is entirely due to the inexperience of the entire civilization......
Three days later, a grand state funeral was held in C3 on the surface of the planet.
An unmanned car brought seven coffins, and the transport robot lined them up, three of which were still clothed.
The state funeral of the seven deceased, which is also the most important event at this stage......
"Shoot! Silence! Salute! β
The atmosphere aboard the Noah was one of sadness. Yu Yifeng also stood aside with a solemn face and saluted.
Seven corpses, lying alone in the coffin, no longer have body temperature, three of them are still well-dressed.
The raging fire burned and devoured them......
There will be no more of them in this world.
Death is eternal death, and it is impossible to be resurrected again.
Everyone has only one life, and according to the existing scientific theories, there can be no time lapse.
People, there really is only this time, and after this time, they will turn into dirt.
Although the turtle is long-lived, there is still a time. The beetle snake rides the fog and eventually turns into ash. At the current level of philosophy, death is still the greatest fear of human beings until the meaning of life is clarified......
Everyone around them bowed their heads in silence, and all the soldiers present gave each other military salutes. The ordinary people on the Noah also had serious faces, and they gathered in front of the New Government Square to watch the big screen.
They have a sad look, some of them pay attention, and some of them bow their heads and are silent.
Several of the relatives of the deceased were still crying in low voices, gradually unable to suppress it, and crying into tears......
"Rite over!"
With the loud roar of the master of ceremonies, all the soldiers "snapped" and put down their salutes.
But no one moved or talked.
They stood in the thick darkness of Knicks, their eyes deep and sad, watching as the fire slowly went out......
The robot stepped forward and completely gathered the remaining ashes, burying them deep underground......
A huge bronze tablet was erected, on which the names of the seven deceased were engraved in its entirety.
Immediately afterwards, the entire state funeral ceremony was completed, the soldiers left the venue in turn, and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Everyone has their own agendas, but they all have another feeling: human beings are not enough, far from enough!
The vast and unforgiving universe has taught mankind another lesson, many people who seem to be accustomed to safety are actually not safe!
However...... Such a lesson is all exchanged for human life!
Human beings are really naΓ―ve, just from a one-month-old baby to a one-year-old baby......
The strength of human beings is still too weak, and there is no way to conquer a planet easily, and it is really not sloppy or careless at all.
Yu Yifeng recovered from his heavy mood and sighed slightly.
The road ahead is long, the road is long, and sometimes it seems that there is really no end in sight.
The whole ceremony was so solemn that he did not go up to speak, and none of the leaders, including him, spoke......
These people are all dead, and the exploits they have made have been broadcast for days, and everyone understands. So repeating it again is not much necessary, but it will seem procrastinating.
"The geological activity of the Nyx Star is too frequent, coupled with a large amount of oxygen corrosion, this bronze monument can only be erected for 10,000 years at most...... Too little! Moreover, the memory of human beings is too short, and the heroes who fought against the Martian virus are rarely talked about now, right? Humans are forgetful creatures. β
"We should set up a hero memorial on the Noah! The names and deeds of all the deceased should be recorded...... And the heroes who fell on Mars. β
"We should always remember them, and let the whole new human civilization remember them!"
Yu Yifeng called Mr. Sean, the Minister of Propaganda, as he walked, and then kept talking on the phone.
These dead people, who should not be forgotten, are the backbone of civilization!
"We should add this to the primary education of primary schools. Let our future generations know that it is precisely because of their dedication and sacrifice that the new human civilization will be stronger and more mature, and that our civilization will continue! β
This kind of education that concerns the next generation must be done with great care.
But Yu Yifeng believes that such a heroic education is still necessary and even necessary.
The 50,000 people of the first generation of the Noah are the elite of the elite, carefully selected from the seven billion people on the planet. Each of them is a smart person with great potential and a good mind.
However, the children born of two smart people are not necessarily smart, and their offspring are likely to be very mediocre, and in terms of IQ, there is a high probability that they are not as good as their parents. Because creating brilliance is itself a small probability event......
However, people can be mediocre, and the thinking mode must be advanced!
For civilization as a whole, a diligent and selfless ordinary person is far more useful than a lazy and selfish genius.
How to cultivate the thinking of the next generation?
A person is born with a blank sheet of paper, with only some instincts on it, and most of them have to rely on acquired education!
During this period of time, Yu Yifeng began to gradually understand: why is the thinking mode so important in the spirit level report given by the alien memory "Black......
The mindset definitely gives a lot of weight to the rating.
Therefore, the upper echelons of civilization must pay attention to education and shape the new human civilization into a stronger place!
We must take advantage of this great opportunity to uproot the bad habits of the past!
Now that the eldest child in Noah has gone to primary school, there are not many external temptations and not too many entertainment facilities, and the whole learning atmosphere is still relatively good.
Teachers keep repeating how weak humanity is, how much pressure it is to survive, and how much even the home planet of humanity has been destroyed......
It's the truth.
This group of children has never seen a blue sky and white clouds, nor has they seen mountains and seas. Their descriptions of the adults are very longing, however, they can only be seen in the photos.
Only science can make human beings strong and let human beings witness the blue sky and white clouds again!
They are extremely admiring in science, and children who want to become scientists account for more than 80%! Instead of the profession that can make money, as before, it is the best profession.
Icy Cosmic ...... Only through the continuous development of science and technology, as well as solidarity and mutual assistance within civilization, can people survive!
Now, after the first few years of education, the seed of this yearning for science has been planted...... How to cultivate a towering tree still needs more education and training.
Therefore, the whole society is still relatively simple, there are not so many intrigues, there are not too many competing interests, and the overall educational environment is very good.
Later...... What will these children become?
For this, Yu Yifeng is still very much looking forward to it.
They are not expected to be geniuses, but they are expected to be useful to civilization...... Of course, it would be better if there were a few geniuses!
