Chapter 110: Civilization, Life and Death, and Detachment

Bai Yi turned his head and looked at the little girl with a puzzled face, and asked:

"What's that!"

The little girl suddenly smiled sweetly and said mysteriously:

"I'll just say it, you can believe it!"

The face of the white clothes suddenly froze there, but the little girl suddenly turned her head and looked into the distance:

"A hundred years ago, our civilization in Luo Qixing had reached a pinnacle that we could reach. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info all of us do not worry about food, clothing, or housing, and truly realize the equality of everyone. And to get these, you only need to apply for a position casually, work five days a week, and the working hours are not even six hours a day. In fact, these jobs can be replaced by machines, but if everyone does nothing all day, the world will be a little dangerous. ”

The little girl sighed and continued:

But even so, the breadth of knowledge and material abundance have caused a serious collapse of the spirit of all people, and faith is even more nonsense.

The pinnacle of civilization often means a bottleneck, and this bottleneck happens to be what everyone cares about the most. ”

Bai Yi suddenly raised his head and asked tentatively:

"Immortality!"

The little girl nodded and continued:

"Not only that, people try their best to avoid birth, old age, sickness and death, and are unwilling to have children, trying to ask for aging and death. All scientific research related to it will receive the full support of the government and the public. ”

There was a deep look in the little girl's eyes:

"But a hundred years later, almost every day we hear scientists say that research has progressed, and various hypotheses and anti-aging drugs have emerged, but with little effect. Some people try to gain immortality by mechanizing their bodies, some people freeze themselves and wait for the future technology to advance...

It wasn't until ten years ago that an extremely young, but recognized genius who was most likely to solve the mystery of life and death in the future, appeared. Many scientists of the older generation have great respect for this young man, and they have passed on their lifelong research efforts to this young man, and the results are very exciting.

It only took one year for this young man to solve the terminal illness known as Death No. 1 at the time. Everyone was excited, thinking that it was time to solve this mystery of life and death, the government and scientists all revolved around this young man, and all kinds of top-secret research files were sent to the young man.

The young man also vowed to solve the mystery of life and death, and he locked himself up in the institute for five years.

When he came out again, his eyes were as dull as a layer of gray. He told the people around him that he had solved the mystery of life and death, and that he was going to hold a press conference for the world!

Soon, everyone who had been waiting for five years was all boiling, those who could rush to the scene rushed to the scene desperately, and those who couldn't also watched the live broadcast nervously with a holographic projector, and almost everyone could hear the sound of their own breathing.

The young man straightened up his appearance, smiled at the crowd, and then began to speak, in a more relaxed tone:

"When I was very young, philosophy taught me that the world is limited, that manpower is limited, and even heaven is limited. Of course, heaven is just an adjective.

But science tells me that the world is infinite, and that human beings are infinite, and if we fail to do so, it is just that we are too stupid to discover the mystery!

I believed in science. In fact, philosophy is right, and science is also right within certain limits. It's just that life and death are not within this limit!"

Everyone in the audience first fell silent, and then scolded one by one, and everyone angrily said that they would punish the young man, and even some extreme people said that they would execute the young man.

The policemen who were maintaining order on the side immediately controlled the scene, and the prime minister stood up and shouted to everyone in the audience:

"Silence, everyone, let us finish what he has to say!"

The young man seemed to know that this would be the reaction, but he didn't care, and still had that faint smile on his face, and continued:

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have been dealing with science for so many years, and I wonder if you still think that it is omnipotent and unfathomable. ”

The young man's mood was a little unstable, and there was obviously a little tremor in his voice, and he suddenly stood up:

"I don't believe in love, but I believe in science, that's what I used to believe. Faith, all of you, do you understand what faith is!"

With a deep exhalation, the young man sat down again:

"I'm sorry everyone, but you're just one of the billions of people who are waiting to die, and these high-level things are not suitable for discussion with you. Your realm, even if you have so-called faith, is just a joke in my eyes!

So let's move on to what I've discovered in the last five years.

First of all, on the basis of the problems such as telomeres and free radicals that have been solved by previous people, I continue to study how to solve the problem of the time accumulation of gene mutations and the implantation of new brain cells in the human head.

We have been able to replace or 'renovate' other organs and torsos of the human body without any rejection except for the head, but the problem of the head is stuck...

But no matter how ingenious the current problem is solved, a new problem will arise. It's like a labyrinth with no outreach, and no matter how I go, I can't get out.

One morning, I saw a bottle with a wild insect in it, and the mouth of the bottle was sealed, leaving only a small hole enough to ventilate, and the insect could not fly out.

At this time, a thought suddenly came to my mind,

Could it be that there is no exit for mankind to escape life and death!

When this idea came to me, I suddenly thought of philosophy. Philosophically speaking, the premise of a thing's long-term existence is that there are reasonable rules.

And what about our universe!"

Speaking of this, the young man stood up again and looked at everyone in the audience with sharp eyes:

"Now, I ask you, is it reasonable that man can get rid of birth, old age, sickness and death?

Is it reasonable that people like you can get rid of birth, old age, sickness and death?"

The young man calmed himself again, sat down, and continued:

"Actually, I should have thought about it a long time ago, under the standard situation, the freezing point of water is zero, not a little higher, not a little lower, forever the same, this is the rule, the rule that has existed since ancient times, the rule that is fixed and unchanging. And birth, old age, sickness and death, the rules are clearly written and cannot be changed. But science is just a tool to use the rules, how do you want it to break the rules and change the rules!

You, all living beings, are just a speck of dust in the vast starry sky, and you, we, can only follow these eternal rules to accept our birth, old age, sickness and death.

Ladies and gentlemen, we human beings can come to this day, and we are not as subject to the nature of heaven and earth and food as other creatures, which is already a great blessing, so why should we be greedy and try to break life, old age, sickness and death, and transcend things!"

(It's time to get to the heart of the book, which is actually a story about a detached person, a story about someone who qualifies as a detached person!)
