"Yes, I did it, everything for the Holy Trinity. ”

Judas, the man in black, admitted without hesitation, making Ted feel as if he had heard a joke, but he couldn't laugh at all, and he felt only horror now.

Especially when I saw the calm face of the man in black.

"You're kidding, are you?" said Ted, as if to confirm something.

"No, I'm not kidding. But Judas, the man in black, rejected his idea.

"But, but......" Ted waved his arm vigorously, as if to say something, "Urban must have been a medieval man, a thousand years ago. ”

Judas, the man in black, said, "It was indeed a long time, and it was unforgettable. ”

"You have lived for a thousand years, how can humans live for a thousand years. ”

"Why can't humans live for a thousand years?" asked the man in black.

"That's because of ......, of course"

"Because of what? Because humans don't have that long lifespans?"

"Yes. Ted nodded hurriedly.

The man in black, Judas, smiled slightly, his eyes were full of love, as if a teacher was looking at a primary school student who didn't know anything, and said lightly: "Ted, do you know what is called Hayfrick's limit theory?"

Ted shook his head honestly, he really didn't know about this doctrine.

Judas, the man in black, said: "In 1961, the American biologist Hayfrick completed a paper reporting on the results of their cultivation of human embryonic fibroblasts in vitro. ”

Hayflick's method is to put human cells in a petri dish and grow them until they are covered with a petri dish. After the dish is covered with a layer of cells, normal cells stop proliferating. ”

Then, transfer a small portion of the cells to another fresh dish for culture. ”

Hayfrick found that fibroblasts could not proliferate indefinitely, even under the most suitable culture conditions, but instead stopped dividing after about 50 passages. ”

"It is proposed that the human life span be estimated based on the number of cell divisions, and that the period of division is about 2.4 years, and that the human life expectancy should be 120 years. The number of cell divisions in chickens is 25 times, the average cycle of each division is one year and two months, and its lifespan is 30 years. The number of divisions of mouse cells is 12 times, the division cycle is 3 months, and its lifespan is 3 years. ”

After hearing this, Ted seemed to understand something, "If a person's cells can divide indefinitely, then doesn't that mean that this person can live alone." ”

"Yes, exactly. Judas, the man in black, said.

"You ......"

"Yes, it's me, my cells can divide forever, so I lived for many years. ”

"How do you do that. "Ted can't believe it, this is immortality, I don't know how many people have been pursuing immortality throughout the ages.

Judas, the man in black, didn't seem to intend to hide this, and said, "Did you know that although human and animal cells have to obey this limit, in fact, there is no Hayfrick limit for reproductive cells, and they can reproduce forever. The somatic cells of many plants and invertebrates do not have the Hayfrick limit and can divide indefinitely through asexual reproduction. ”

Ted hit the nail on the head: "But you're a human, not a plant. ”

"Then I can tell you that, apart from plants, there are actually some cancer cells in the human body that do not have the Hayfrick limit and can divide indefinitely. ”

"Cancer cells?"

"Yes, cancer cells, and I'm the kind of person I am, the cells in my body have mutated and can divide indefinitely, but the interesting thing is that these cells don't bring me any harm, but a lot of good. ”

Ted suddenly thought of something, if this guy is really a cell mutation, can divide indefinitely, and can live forever, then his name, the name that once made countless Christians hate it.

"Are you...... Judas?"

"I said, from the moment I was born, I was Judas. ”

"You have lived more than a thousand years, you have lived more than two thousand years, you are Judas, a disciple of Jesus, Judas who betrayed Jesus. Ted suddenly remembered, no wonder the other party said that his name was troublesome, it turned out to be like this.

Judas, he is that Judas.

The man in black smiled happily, "Looks like you've got it, yes, I'm Judas." ”

"Oh my God, you're still alive. "Ted was unbelievable.

He read the Bible and knew that Judas had betrayed Jesus and regretted it.

When Jesus was taken by his enemies and sentenced to be pronounced, Judas could no longer bear the pain of conscience conviction.

Tall, he squeezed through the shocked crowd.

His face was blue and haggard, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. He rushed to the judgment seat, threw the money before the high priest, eagerly grabbed Caiaphas's robe, and begged him to release Jesus, saying that he had done nothing worthy of death.

But Jesus' judges did not listen to Judah.

Judas cried out, "I am guilty of betraying the blood of innocent men." ”

But the judges, with contempt at them, replied, "What does that have to do with us?

Although the judges were willing to use Judas as their instrument, they despised his vile personality. When Judas confessed his sins to them, he kicked him away.

Desperate, Judas fell at Jesus' feet, confessed that he was the Son of God, and pleaded with Him to save himself.

The Savior did not condemn the man who betrayed Him.

But Jesus didn't say a word to condemn him.

Jesus simply looked at Judas with pity and said, "I have come to earth at this time." ”

The crowd was amazed and amazed at Christ's forgiveness of his betrayer. They also realized that this was no ordinary person. But if he is the Son of God, why not deliver himself from bondage and prevail against his accusers?

Judas, knowing that his pleas were in vain, rushed out of the judgment chamber and cried out, "Too late!

He could not bear to live to see Jesus crucified, so he hanged himself in despair on the outskirts of Jerusalem.

"I used to think I was dead, but alas, I came back to life, and since then, I have never died, and I have lived to this day. ”

The man in black said.

"Soon after I came out of the grave, I heard the news of Jesus' resurrection, how similar it was to me, and I knew that the Son had forgiven me and resurrected me, and that I should follow his command and try to redeem the world, but because of my fault, I could not appear before the public, so I established the Holy Trinity. ”
