Chapter 54 There are no immutable ideas
"In the past, everyone was speculating that since the source crystal exists as the source of the source power in our body, and the source endowment determines the composition of our origin power, the reincarnation of the source force is to a certain extent the process of generating the source endowment, and it is also the process of forming the source crystal.
So will the source crystal be equal to the source endowment?
Does the source endowment exist in the source crystal?
It wasn't until I joined the Temple of Destiny that I realized that the answer was no.
It turned out that the Hall of Destiny had already analyzed the source Fu.
Originally, the power of origin was an energy that was difficult to observe, and it was only now that science is so advanced that it can barely be observed.
However, since ancient times, the Origin can easily sense the power of the Origin, and ordinary people are completely unable to do it.
Perhaps the power of the source, for you and me, is as ordinary as we see all kinds of energy such as light and electricity, and it can be seen everywhere, and it naturally exists between heaven and earth.
But for ordinary people, the power of the origin between heaven and earth is completely invisible, cannot be touched or felt, and belongs to a mysterious existence that can only be heard from the mouth of the originator.
Only when the Origin Origin Power is released, ordinary people can get a glimpse of it, but even if they can see it, ordinary people will never be able to understand the magic of the Source Power.
And the Temple of Destiny has been committed to using scientific methods to explain the power of origin, a special energy that you and I have long been accustomed to and is not strange. Luo Yuanqing said, "Today, I will tell you about a concept that you may have never heard of before, Yuanfu cognition." β
"The concept of source cognition is quite complex, and if I want to understand source cognition, I must first give you a few examples. Luo Yuanqing flipped his left hand, and a gold source coin had already appeared in his hand, "Let me ask you, do you know what this is?"
No need to answer, yes, it's money.
Everyone loves money, is there anyone who doesn't like money?
Haha, money is important to anyone.
Although for us Originators, strength comes first, but because everything related to Originators is very expensive, many Originators do not hesitate to go bankrupt and go into debt in order to improve their strength, and they also have to buy expensive scientific source weapons like Origin Armor.
But they don't care, because everyone knows very well that as long as your strength goes up, you can naturally get power, get money, and have everything, and in this world, strength will always come first. β
"However, in this world, more than 90 percent of the people are ordinary people who are unable to use the power of the Origin.
For these ordinary people who have no talent, they have no choice, and they are destined to have no chance with the source power and strong personal strength in this life.
Then for them, money is the thing they trust the most, and it can even be said that the only thing they can trust.
Because maybe their friends, lovers and even relatives are likely to betray them because of interests, only money will not, money will not betray people, so everyone likes money, and many people believe that as long as they have enough money, they can do whatever they want.
But you know what?
Money can betray people, for example, I'm telling you now, gold coins are worthless.
You may all turn your nose up at me, when I am a fool, because everyone knows that the gold source coin is the most credible currency in the world, and there is no one of the most valuable currencies in the world.
But if one day, the whole world starts to think that the gold source coins are worthless, and everyone no longer accepts the gold source coins for trade, then the gold source coins will really become waste and no longer have any value. Luo Yuanqing said.
There was an uproar in the audience.
"When something is right when only a few people think it's right, it doesn't make any sense, but when the vast majority thinks it's right, then it becomes right, no matter how outrageous and ridiculous it is.
You need not be surprised that nothing in this world is absolute, everything is relative and can change at any time.
For example, according to historical records, it seems that 300 years ago, everyone regarded obesity as beauty, and today's aesthetics are all about slimness.
Incredible, right?
Do you know why the gold source coin is now the most valuable currency and can be circulated all over the world?
It's because our Kadri Empire is strong enough, but if one day we decline, then the surrounding countries will start to stop using gold source coins, and no longer allow the trade of gold source coins, and gold source coins will start to depreciate, understand?
Maybe you don't worry too much because it's just depreciation, right?
But if one day our Kadri Empire royal family is overthrown, maybe our country will be renamed and become a brand new country, and the currency will naturally be replaced, and the new ruler may be allowed to exchange gold coins for new currencies at a certain rate because they need the support of the people, so this is actually a shrinkage of personal wealth.
What's the worst part?
Even if we lose our country and become a prisoner of someone else's country, then the gold source coin may be completely abolished and become worthless scrap, and even if it can be exchanged, it will be exchanged for new currency at a very low rate.
Because other countries already have their own currencies, their own people, and they don't need our support at all, and in the worst case, we may even be deprived of our human rights.
But in general, the probability of this is very low, there are too many variables, for example, if there are still one or two countries using our gold source coin, if they abolish the gold source currency after occupying us, it may provoke public anger, but there are examples of this in history.
And if we do decline to that extent, there is a high probability that no country will use gold source coins except ourselves.
Don't laugh, I'm not joking with you, who knows what the future holds? All of this could become a reality. Luo Yuanqing said seriously.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and there was a deathly silence in the audience.
Yes, money has value because society gives it value, not because it has value in itself.
Thinking that their families may become destitute and destitute at any time in the future, some students can no longer bear it, and they hold their heads and feel distressed.
Yes, depending on the situation, even money betrays people, and any perception can change at any time. Luo Yuanqing smiled bitterly.
Ling Yan raised his hand and said, "But isn't the gold source coin made of gold? β
"You're wrong, the gold source coin is just made like gold, not gold itself. And why is gold valuable? Do you think gold retains its value?
The reason why gold is valuable is nothing more than two reasons, one is rare, and the other is that gold is recognized as a hard currency in the world, which has endured since ancient times, is recognized as valuable, and has become a kind of financial reserve of various countries. Therefore, its own value is very high.
However, if we find a planet full of gold in the future, the total reserves of gold will rise, and the rule of scarcity will be broken, inflation, then gold will naturally depreciate.
But is that really the case?
Not exactly, because gold mining has a cost, and we don't have to worry about whether there is the ability to mine it for now.
Even if there is technically capable of mining, the cost of mining should be high. If the cost of mining exceeds the current value of gold, then no one will mine it. In other words, the price of gold will not be affected by this.
In addition to the cost of mining, the cost of transportation from the planet to Kadri will also be much greater than the cost of transportation inside Kadri.
But if these problems can be solved, then the value of gold will naturally fall off a cliff in an instant.
Remember, no idea is set in stone. Any concept will change over time, and even traditional social morality will be constantly challenged by new ideas over time. Luo Yuanqing smiled bitterly, "This is the source of cognition, only your own cognition of this world." How do you make sense of the world, your personal judgment criteria, your personal perspective on things.
How do you distinguish between good and bad, right and wrong, a fundamental view of what is good or bad, a fundamental view of whether something has value and what value.
This is what the Temple of Destiny believes, the source of cognition.
Again, do you know why it's raining?"
Yu Jiao raised his hand and said, "I know." Rain is a natural precipitation phenomenon, produced by atmospheric circulation disturbances, is an indispensable part of the Kadri star water cycle, rain falls from the clouds of water droplets, water on the surface of the land and sea evaporates into water vapor, water vapor rises to a certain height and becomes small water droplets when cold, these small water droplets form clouds, they collide with each other in the clouds, merge into large water droplets, when it is too big for the air to support, it falls from the clouds, and rain is formed. β
"Yes, but the reason why you think so is because you have already learned this at the academy.
But what if someone has never heard of it?
He might have been naΓ―ve enough to think that it was raining because God was weeping.
Don't laugh, huh?
The fact is that everyone has a completely different perception of the world.
Many truths that we consider infallible now may also be considered wrong in later generations.
You probably still don't understand it too much?
In fact, the Temple of Destiny has been trying to use science to explain the realm of the gods such as the power of the source. Luo Yuanqing said.
