Chapter 353: Peace is Possible
"Well, tell me a little bit about Japan." Liu Chang said: "Have you already fallen there?" ”。
"It's not about the fall, in fact, after the end comes, the population over there has dropped sharply, and it's not as good as China's, because it's a landlocked country, so it's much safer." As the girl spoke, she began to slowly pull out the fire tools from her backpack, and they worked together to raise the flame on the ground, while telling about their country, "Our forest coverage was much higher than that of China before, and this was a place we were proud of at first, but after the end of the world, because of the coverage of the forest base area, the city was surrounded by forests at the beginning. ”
"This is a relatively inland place, and if you are by the sea, just like China's seaside cities, a lot of people died at the beginning, and those who could run ran away, and those who couldn't run were trapped inland." The girl's Chinese is not very good, and between the words, there are many words patchwork, "Family, friends, we ran away from the seaside city in the first place." I remember when the end first came, a lot of sea monsters landed in the city within a few days, and there was a disgusting algae that devoured our city. ”
"Algae?" Liu Chang asked.
"Well, a kind of algae that devours humans, it spreads all the way from the sea level, and that's how our city is destroyed." A young girl spoke, pointing to another girl who lived and cooked, and said, "We are neighbors, we have always been good friends, and when the end came, we were thirteen or fourteen-year-old little girls. I am in the first grade of junior high school. On the day of the apocalypse, we were playing in the streets, and then the air raid sirens in the air sounded, and at first we thought it was an earthquake drill, but who knows, but then we saw a red fog all over the sky. ”
"Well, that's pretty similar to me, I was in class when the red mist fell." Liu Chang smiled: "It's still good for you, you don't need to tutor during the summer vacation." ”
"And then? Tell me more about the casualties of your monsters and people. ”
"Then came the red mist. It should be similar to the Chinese side, and then there are very scary plant growth, and those monsters. As the girl spoke, she lowered her head, "My mother was killed by a pet cat, this was the situation at the beginning, and then the soldiers of the Self-Defense Forces organized the refugee camp, at the beginning of the time. A lot of people died, old people and children died, many people were afraid, and we were afraid. ”
"And after that?" Liu Chang looked at the girl who spoke.
"After that, it's time for the sea monster to land. The land is very dangerous from the beginning, but the army is not dangerous - as long as it is in the army. Those animals and plants are very difficult to cause harm to people. The main thing is that there is a shortage of illness and food, and when everyone thinks it is a little safer, then a large area of sea beasts lands. The girl recalled, "In the early days of the sea beast's landing, there was a battle with the army. It seems that those animals hate humans and have taken the initiative to clash with the Self-Defense Forces soldiers on our side. Then the army began to attrition, and then our city was flooded with seaweed, and after the army collapsed, people fled in all directions. Some groups became small gatherings, and some died on the seashore -- until the Undersea Man arrived two years ago. ”
"Two years ago?" Liu Chang remembered this number.
"Hmm." The girl nodded.
"How many of your citizens were left at that time?"
"Less than a tenth." The girl didn't seem to have a clear idea of the number, "Our city was almost empty, but then I heard that some people survived in the inland places, so I guess, one in ten." ”…,
"Hmm. What happened next? Liu Chang continued to ask.
"Then the seamen landed and saved our civilization from the near collapse, they helped us build homes, they helped us grow food, they helped us drive away those manic sea monsters, they cleaned up the seaweed, they helped us a lot anyway, and we are very grateful to them." When the girl said this, Liu Chang paid steady attention to the change in her expression from the corner of her eyes.
Now Liu Chang, as a brain domain mutant, can easily tell whether a person has deceived him from some very small amounts of information, so he pays attention to the girl's expression and wants to really understand whether the undersea people are really as she said after occupying the Japanese islands, it is purely to help the construction.
It turned out that it was clear - there was no flaw in the girl's expression - that she was telling the truth.
"They're very nice." The girl's face showed sincerity, "When I met them, I was almost dead, and when I saw them for the first time, I thought they were another kind of monster, but what I didn't expect was that although they looked a little vicious, they were really good to you." They saved me, so I want to repay them. ”
"So, you agreed to come here with them?" Liu Chang looked at this relatively innocent girl and was a little speechless.
"Well, anyway, my parents and brother are dead, and I don't have any relatives over there, so Shizuko wants to come, so I followed." As the girl spoke, she looked at her companion who was cooking on the fire.
Obviously, this companion is even less verbal than this girl, but before the end of the world, she should have been a girl who was very good at cooking, and now she is very skillful in her skills, and the things she makes taste very fragrant.
Liu Chang has long heard that many Japanese little girls can cook and do housework at the age of eleven or twelve, and today I can't help but want to verify whether this idea is correct.
"Shizuko?" Liu Chang called the girl.
"Huh?" The girl looked up, her face flushed a little from the firelight. "Mr. ......"
"Are you good at cooking before the end of the world?"
"Well, my mom and dad are often away from home, so I often cook for my brother." Shizuko's voice is very thin, and Chinese is even worse, not only is the pronunciation inaccurate, sometimes a word, will think for a long time, but fortunately, Liu Chang can understand.
"That's right." After asking this seemingly meaningless question, Liu Chang was even more amazed at the depth of the scheming of the people under the sea - he, like Li Qingshui, never thought that this race was a truly friendly race. Because according to any existing theory, or from the point of view of historical problems, it is impossible for the two races to coexist in this land in complete peace and for a long time.
Because if coexistence were really pursued - the people of the sea would not be so eager to land and spread all over the earth.
Before he left for Beijing, he discussed this issue of peace with Li Qingshui, but Li Qingshui's answer was so categorical - "If the people of the sea really want to coexist, they should not occupy that land after they have learned all the knowledge and technology of North America!" ”
It's obvious, and it's clear.
On the earth, the area of the sea is much wider than that of the land, and because it is a three-dimensional living space, the resources and land that people on the sea can have from the moment of birth are countless times more than that of humans. After learning the knowledge, they could have rebuilt a civilization at the bottom of the sea - but they chose to occupy North America and coexist with the Americans, seemingly "living in harmony".
This is in fact - their desire for appropriation.
Theoretically, according to the cosmic jungle theory, even in the seemingly infinite universe, it is impossible for intelligent beings to give up competition for resources, and peace can only be established on the basis of equality of both sides, or equality of force. And amphibians, and humans, they are inherently unequal beings. …,
Amphibians are much better than humans, and it is impossible for these people to give humans enough space to develop in terms of survivability, intelligence, and reproduction.
Moreover, from the point of view of history, because human beings are the first race to rise, no one will be satisfied with a vassal position - in other words, if the amphibians have a long civilization and the human race is a fledgling race, there may still be a possibility of dependence between the two sides.
However, not the other way around.
Even humans wouldn't say yes.
Therefore, peace, both theoretically and in reality, is impossible.
And the fact that the two undersea people are now so friendly and kind is just a strategic necessity -- and the many questions that Liu Chang asked this Japanese girl undoubtedly analyzed how good the undersea people are in all aspects from the most fundamental things and the most complicated problems.
"Even me, they can study it so thoroughly." Liu Chang's question to the girl, and the current performance of these two girls, can poke the soft position in his heart, even if he knows that this is the arrangement of the spy, he still can't generate more negative emotions in the annoying behavior of the undersea man.
"Let's go to sleep after eating." Liu Chang didn't know what the fate of these two girls would be in the future on the side of the undersea people, and he didn't have time to care so much, he didn't want to have anything to do with this Japanese girl.
So, having got all the answers he wanted, he ate hastily and went to sleep in his empty room.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, Liu Chang sent the girl back to the Undersea Man Military Headquarters, and then followed Xi to the outside coast.
Last night, a heavily armed army was brought to the coast, and three sea wisdom sea beasts cooperated with the people under the sea - this time Liu Chang was still on the beach, and saw the kind of red snake he had seen twice before.
Twice, the first time was when I first came to Qingdao, the second time was when I discovered the underwater people, and the third time was now.
Then, Liu Chang suddenly remembered the first time he came to Qingdao, and saw the battle between the sea beasts - that time it was a giant sea turtle and the sea snake - between the two beasts, while fighting, what they were talking about, it seemed to be the language of the sea people.
"I see, I'll just say!" Thinking of this, Liu Chang showed a slight smile on his face. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )……,
