Chapter 377: Cultivation is useless
ps: Thank you for your support!
In the past hundred years of development, in addition to the development of the faster-than-light spaceship technology system, one of the aspects of the fastest development of the earth's civilization is the power of cultivation.
In the early years, although the earth civilization had formed batches of seeds of cultivation civilization under the special support of Sima Mulong, and even now, a considerable number of cultivation academies that have developed still exist, and they are still vigorously cultivating high-end students in the cultivation system.
However, for a long time, because the difference between this idealism-based cultivation system and the materialist scientific and technological civilization is too great, the development of this seed of spiritual civilization in the earth civilization for a long time has always been a little unsatisfactory.
Over the past few hundred years, a considerable number of people have gradually entered the world of cultivation for various reasons, either because of public education, or because of the complementary effect of cultivation on the scientific and technological system, or simply for the sake of strengthening their bodies and living a long life. However, except for a large number of students from the cultivation academy who have been cultivated since childhood, the proportion of other people who can grasp the essence of cultivation power is still very small.
Most people simply see cultivation as a kind of scientific system, which has been integrated and developed, a kind of physical strength development technique similar to traditional martial arts, and treat cultivation as a survival skill, rather than cultivating it inwardly.
You must know that cultivation is first and foremost a kind of faith effort, and it is impossible to practice it if you are not sincere and dedicated.
Therefore, in the hundreds of years after the earth civilization stepped into the interstellar civilization, although the power branch of the cultivation civilization has always maintained a continuous development trend because of the relationship that the government vigorously advocates and supports, it has never become a power system that has truly penetrated into the core basic layer of the earth civilization.
This is also because in the hearts of human beings on the earth, the power of the scientific and technological civilization system is too deep-rooted.
After all, in these years, although the earth civilization has done a lot of promotion work in the development of the cultivation civilization, even the earth government itself has put the most energy into the development of the scientific and technological system.
Scientific and technological civilization, as the pillar production theory system of the earth's civilization, can be said to have almost reached an unshakable point, and the survival, development, life, reproduction, and foreign competition of human beings are all inseparable from the support of scientific and technological forces.
In the eyes of most people, the so-called practice is just a kind of physical fitness, longevity and longevity, and there is no essential difference between yoga and tai chi, where can it be compared with the power of science and technology.
Human beings have come from the wild and primitive era, from the former Ru Mao drinking blood, to learning to use fire, learning to build houses, learning to farm, learning to write, from the agricultural era to the age of science and technology, the development of civilization in thousands of years in history, in the final analysis, relying on only the power of science and technology, this is the most essential cognition of the earth human beings for reality, for the universe, for the macro and micro world, can be said to constitute all the things that constitute the human world.
With the help of scientific and technological power, the human world as a whole has gradually possessed extraordinary powers, which can move several times the speed of light, occupy different planets across the long sea of stars, and transform the planet in the barren land into a survival base suitable for human survival, or even transform the planet.
Internally, human beings can rely on science and technology to greatly improve their living environment, improve their own living conditions, and even increase their average life expectancy, treat all kinds of diseases caused by internal and external causes, externally, human beings can transform the world, transform the future, conquer the starry sky, and resist external threats.
In the eyes of human beings on earth, there is almost nothing that cannot be changed by technology, if there is, then spend hundreds or even thousands of years to study it, to understand it, to prevent it, and finally conquer it!
And technology itself has developed in this way.
In the eyes of most people, the scientific and technological civilization system itself is the most solid and unbreakable civilization foundation for human beings on the earth.
Therefore, any person, as long as he or she learns scientific and technological knowledge well and has a certain amount of scientific and technological literacy and professional knowledge, can settle down well and seek a job commensurate with his own value in this world, so as to realize his own value.
After all, technology requires the cooperation of the public, and human society itself is also a world where people cooperate and people coexist, and the two just form a match, and the effect is simply perfect.
And the so-called cultivation civilization itself is difficult to understand, the cost is huge, not to mention the difficulty of cultivation, the most scornful thing is that it seems to be useless!
Yes, in the eyes of most people, the biggest problem with this practice is that it is useless!
Although the earth's civilization now has a series of universal cultivation knowledge, these popular cultivation knowledge are themselves the most ordinary and popular, and their characteristics are that they are simple and easy to understand, and it is not easy to have problems with cultivation, but the disadvantages are not small, and the biggest disadvantage is that the cultivation is slow and cannot produce results for a long time.
Moreover, although the earth civilization is vigorously promoting the development of the cultivation system, in fact, the secrecy of the cultivation knowledge is extremely high.
If you don't practice to a certain level, you don't want to get advanced exercises at all, and even if you get advanced exercises, you won't be able to get the spells you can use.
Only after a rigorous review and meticulous investigation can a cultivator get a list of spells that have been screened based on his occupation, hobbies, personality, and physical condition.
And this spell list, there is no doubt that it is a deleted version of the spell list, if you are not a professional soldier, or a policeman or something, and wait for the relevant spell practice permission, then any professional killing, killing, powerful spells that can kill people in a moment's thought, what blood-based spells, death-based hair elements, control spells, etc., will all have nothing to do with you.
The spells you can obtain, most of the time, are similar to the small cloud and rain technique of watering the land and farming, the small fire control technique of temperature control and fire control, the small general illumination technique of examining people's bodies, etc., at first glance, it gives people the feeling, Nima, the cultivation is for this?
What is the significance of these functions, these powers, to modern people?
If you want to fertilize and water, you still need to do it manually? People in automated agricultural factories, it is difficult to press buttons, and in the workshop of agricultural plants controlled by automatic control, a series of watering, fertilization, temperature control, and insect control are all handled, and you can still use what kind of bird egg spell?
The precision temperature control technology in various industrial positions has completely replaced the value space of small fire control technology, simple and easy-to-use laser temperature control technology, if you want a few degrees, you want to change the temperature flexibly and quickly, you want to quickly change the temperature or something, a program design, several professional equipment, but also fully able to meet the demanding requirements of instantaneous rapid temperature change. What kind of small fire control technique is there, there is no room to play.
Of course, strictly speaking, it's not that heroes are useless, and after learning this Raushzi's little fire control technique, at least being a chef, even if something, has more advantages than ordinary people.
However, cultivation is so difficult, and the various costs of cultivation are so costly, what aura, what elixir, what elixir, what exercises, if you want to practice efficiently, which resources are also indispensable, and after a certain extent, you have to find a master for guidance, exchange experience with your colleagues, and spend money like flowing water.
After paying so much, I ended up being a technician, a small worker, a chef or something, which is too cost-effective, right?
To say, this is indeed a disadvantage caused by the high level of science and technology of the earth's civilization.
In fact, in essence, the actual value and practical significance of the cultivation system are not as useless as ordinary people imagine.
In the development process of the Canglan civilization, at the beginning, the entire Canglan civilization system was completely devoid of the power of the scientific and technological system, and all the various social production needs of Canglan were composed of various spells.
Almost all kinds of functions in human society have a variety of strong or weak spells to deal with the needs, and at that time, Canglan was a cultivation planet with extremely rich planetary resources, and the cost of its cultivation was not as high as that of the earth, so the Canglan civilization survived the difficult early stage of the development of the cultivation civilization, and finally jumped up and became a strong civilization in the universe.
But in today's Earth, the situation is completely wrong.
After all, the earth's scientific and technological civilization system has developed to a very high-end level, as a model of civilized collaborative development, the various production and life needs in the society, relying on the power of science and technology itself, human beings have found a solution to the problem quickly, in this way, as a strange cultivation power system of foreign civilizations, it is naturally a little embarrassing in the earth's civilization.
Those low-end spell powers, there have long been similar technological means on the earth to solve the needs. Some killing spells, control spells, mutated spells, etc., of the same grade, are mostly controlled and blocked on the earth, and it is impossible to develop them wantonly among the people.
After all, those killing spells that can kill and injure a large area at every turn are undoubtedly damaging the social order, and control spells are even more serious violations of human rights and affect social harmony and stability. If a mutant spell is obtained by a metamorphosis scientist, once some metamorphosis virus or something is accidentally produced, it will be a big trouble, so the really useful spells are locked in the box, and only a few people can practice and use them after obtaining permission, so that it naturally leaves such an impression on the general public: Spells are to a large extent troublesome and extravagant, and the key is not to use things, and it is really wronged to say.
If the monks of the vicissitudes know that these spells have been hacked like this on the earth, I am afraid that they will be eager to jump out and give these ignorant guys a big move, so that they can taste the power of the spells...... But the problem is, they didn't pop out, did they?
Therefore, in the eyes of most of the public, the impression of cultivation is still very useless.
Not only is it useless for individuals, but more importantly, it is also of little use for the development of civilization.
For a long time, the greatest role and ability of the monks who have cultivated on the earth is to be busy as workers in various processes in the field of faster-than-light spaceship manufacturing, using their magical power to speed up the progress of various construction projects.
And for the increasingly mature global industrial system, this value, which is not very important in the first place, is becoming more and more depreciated.
In the eyes of most people, the spells of the monks are now neither essential, nor cheap and affordable, in short, they are just a chicken rib, if it were not for the earth government's official strong subsidy policy for these monks, as well as preferential policies, how many factories would be eager to dismiss those monks: Nun Mei, the effect is not big, the consumption is not small, and the cost performance is seriously unbalanced.
For a long time, there was considerable skepticism about the value of the monk, believing that vigorously promoting the practice was probably an act that did not outweigh the losses.
Compared with the power of science and technology, the value of spiritual cultivation is not very useful for personal job search, and it is not beneficial to social development.
It's not good for the inside, if it plays the role of a mainstay externally, it's okay, the problem is that the spells of the low-end monks, its range of action is only about 100 meters around, and even a pistol can't compare, and even the most high-end monks on the market are not as good as a machine gun, which is undoubtedly useless in the battlefield of foreign wars!
After all, it is no longer the era of cold weapons, or even the beginning of the era of hot weapons. Ordinary attack capabilities with a killing radius of less than 10,000 kilometers and a killing speed of less than a few hundred times the speed of sound are almost the same in today's era, and they are completely meaningless.
Now is the era of interstellar civilization, once the war starts, then there will be and will only be faster-than-light spaceships on the front line of fighting.
And the mode of war between faster-than-light spacecraft will be a very extreme war of terror.
Faster-than-light warfare!
A faster-than-light battleship that has reached a faster-than-light state and is flexible in changing directions, and has the ability to combat faster-than-light, the mode of its warfare cannot be observed even by low-end civilizations. (To be continued.) )
