11 Discussion of the conquest of the earth
"You don't seem to know me anymore. β
This is the first sentence spoken by this three-body person.
Bai He stared at this three-body man for a long time, and shook his head: "I'm sorry, in my eyes, you all look similar, I know that you can distinguish each other by the color of your body, but I don't have this kind of discrimination at the moment, I just remember that you don't seem to be here these days." β
"It's really a statement that the Trisolarans can't refute, but we look at the same as earthlings, without an auxiliary information system, it is difficult for us to identify a certain earthling. Trisolaran: "Maybe we should get to know each other again, I am the first Trisolaranist to talk to you on the Trisolaran Star, and I am also the head of the ecological research department." β
"It turned out to be an Ampera. β
Bai He suddenly remembered the content of that day's conversation,
"Yes, we talked about it. The Trisolaranist said.
"I'm a little strange, judging from the Trisolarans I've been in contact with these days, I should have been transferred out of your department. β
"You don't seem to know how much trouble you've caused for our government. The real-time translation system anthropomorphically emitted a sigh from the Trisolara: "Nearly three-quarters of the people who questioned you these days have already been found guilty. β
"Guilty?"
"Yes, according to the laws of our Trisolarans, these people will be put in the square and burned after being dehydrated. β
"IMHO, a bit of a fuss. Why?"
Bai He understands the concept of "guilty" of the three-body problem, and he is just shocked by the execution of the three-body problem.
Just by asking myself, I asked a bunch of guilty people, no wonder the guys who came to question each other recently became more nervous than the other.
If you hadn't read the original book and knew the strange political system of the Three-Body Star, Bai He would probably be even more shocked.
"You don't know the situation, the people who ask you these days are mainly the lie identification department, the way we Trisolaran communicate determines that we can't lie when communicating, but because of some of our plans, the lying ability of other intelligent races has become our key research object;
Those statements of yours sounded very ridiculous, so the FΓΌhrer decided to let these professionals debunk your lies......" The Trisolarans sighed again: "As a result, they are guilty. β
"Haha. Shirakawa laughed, "Your FΓΌhrer doesn't seem to believe what I say. β
"They're ridiculous, I didn't believe it when I first heard it. β
"And now?"
"Half-believed, but if what you say is false, then your ability to falsify is obviously beyond the scope of the current technical research and identification of the Trisolar Star, and I don't think the earthlings fully possess this ability. Nevertheless...... I'm still having a hard time believing you. "Three-body humane.
"Understandable. β
"The FΓΌhrer was very dissatisfied, he thought that this department could not even debunk such a ridiculous lie, then someone must have committed a crime in it. β
"So most of the people in this department have sinned?"
"Yes. The three-body man sighed and knocked on the simultaneous translation device in front of him: "Actually, most of them don't deserve to die, the invention of this thing, they have done important work, do you know what this thing was used for the first time after we came into contact with the concept of lies?"
"I guess......" Bai He looked at the Trisolarans: "Assuming that two Trisolarans talk through this instrument, and each of them encloses the space for speaking, you will have the ability to lie." β
"Yes, this has caused many problems in our society. The three-body man shook his head helplessly: "Since these epochs of the lie identification department, most of the people it has dealt with are actually us three-body people themselves. β
"Sounds ironic. β
"It's ironic that after coming into contact with the outside world, we are the first to be irreversibly polluted, and since lying has become technically feasible for us, more and more people have deceived us in various ways. The three-body man shook his head helplessly: "The new lie identification department is still being reorganized, and before the reorganization is completed, I asked my boss to allow me to complete the unfinished research work." β
"It's been really hard work for me. Baihe Chrysanthemum said tightly.
"Yes, I want you to be patient for a while, the record of civilization is a very serious process. The Trisolaran: "After we conquer the earth, you may be free." β
"Conquest of the Earth, I've heard you talk about this conquest of the Earth many times these days, do you mind if I know about it?"
"Of course, this is not a secret plan, even the earthlings know that we are dealing with them, we use Zhizi to stagnate the earth's technology, well, you can understand Zhizi as an intelligent robot compressed to the particle scale, and our fleet will arrive in four hundred years, with the current level of technology of the earthlings, it is impossible to resist our conquest. β
Bai He showed a puzzled look just right, and the three-body man also seemed to want to relieve his boredom by speaking, and took the trouble to explain some terms to Bai He. Bai He also kept asking questions, changing some of the concepts he learned from the original plot from the Trisolarans to 'I heard from your mouth'.
He knew that this might be a different way for the Three-Body Government to extract information from himself, but what did it matter?
......
"But they're still resisting?"
"Yes, they are resisting. The Trisolarans sighed: "Resisting in vain, their own government is a mess, and some earthlings are still secretly supporting us." β
yes, a mess of populist governments and brain-dead cult lead party.
"After the conquest, what are the Trisolarans going to do?"
"Induce them to kill each other, use genetic weapons, and end the ability of earthlings to reproduce. β
"It's cruel. Bai He smacked his lips, hearing this sentence from the mouth of a real person was indeed a little more shocking than what he saw in a book.
"This universe is so cruel, and the arrogance of the earthlings is too much. The Trisolarans began to fiddle with the machinery, removing blood and scales from Bai He's body, and did not turn off the translation device while working, but coldly vomited: "They have the luxury of sitting in a safe cosmic environment, and they can live and reproduce freely at an extremely low cost?" The universe has given us such an environment, but let the earthlings enjoy such a perfect planet. When we are in danger of perishing bit by bit to produce resources and research technology, just to increase the chances of survival of the race by a few percent in the next chaotic era, what are the earthlings doing when we do so? Slaughter each other uncontrollably? Establish ridiculous governments that are inefficient and rip each other off? Close the research department after close space exploration? Just to bring down the opponents on the political line?
There is such an injustice in this universe!
The Trisolarans want to change all this and save the earth from the hands of fallen humans who have wasted the gifts of the universe! Isn't this the justice that the universe has given us?"
I am poor, I want to rob, I am justified, rich people waste things, I rob right, I am just.
In the way of refining the central idea, Bai He summarized the three-body man's tirade in his own language as simply as possible in his heart, and then compared it with the original text, well, there is nothing wrong.
"You think humans are degenerate?"
He waited for the Trisolarans to calm down from some excitement before he spoke: "But I have a question here, think about it from another perspective, if the Trisolarans and the Earthlings change roles, do you think the Trisolarans will not be as depraved as the Earthlings?"
This question triggered the silence of the Trisolaran, and the dazzling brilliance of the nearby Trisolaran's surface also froze for a moment, and the scientific and technological elites of these Trisolarans seemed to communicate briefly after the silence, and finally Bai He heard a sigh:
β...... Yes, I am even afraid that our appearance and physical characteristics will be completely exchanged, and the current situation must be that the earthlings living in the three-body planet will conquer the fallen us who live on the earth. The Trisolaranist sighed again: "You are right, it seems to be a kind of truth that a comfortable environment leads to depravity, but even so, if the Trisolarans occupy the earth by the more industrious and more eager to change their fate, what is not in line with the truth in the universe? Who can explain what the truth of the universe is? In addition to mathematical formulas and physical rules, what reason can be arrogant enough to speak for the truth of the universe? Probably our attitude has also begun to become arrogant. β
"Maybe one day, our descendants who conquered the earth will become as arrogant and extravagant and depraved as the earthlings; maybe they will also begin to believe that their truth and justice can speak for the universe, maybe they will sympathize with the earthlings who were completely destroyed by their ancestors, and even some so-called good three-body people may appear among them, and carry out so-called repentance and criticism of the crimes of their ancestors. β
The trisolarans' dry laughter came from the translator: "It's sad to imagine, but I'm looking forward to that day sooner, although I'm not destined to wait for that day." β
"Is conquest for the sake of depravity?"
"No, it's about survival!
In order to escape the day of facing perdition at any time, even if it is a by-product of the Fall, it is worth it. The three-body man longed.
"So, you are willing to bear the burden of depravity in order to survive, if...... I mean if," Bai He said thoughtfully, "if there were other ways to keep your civilization alive, and you would be burdened with other kinds of by-products, or pay other costs, would you accept it?"
"What are you talking about?" The three-body man in the room stopped what he was doing the moment Bai He finished speaking, and the three-body man fell into a strange silence for a while before he asked with a slight hesitation, and the atmosphere suddenly froze.
