Volume 2 Corpse Transformation Witch Chu Chapter 167 The Fountain of Eternal Life
Deochisis appeared from Ouyang's body and turned his four tentacles into two hands, touching everything around him, starting with moss, then various fungi, and then floating to the edge of the house, touching some parasitic plants on the walls of the house.
"Did you find anything?" asked Ouyang as he looked at Deochisis who had floated back.
"Your Excellency, the creatures here have become an ecosystem of their own, and they are far from being plants in our ordinary sense. ”
"These seemingly tall plants don't actually consume carbon dioxide, they, like animals, absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide. ”
"Huh, this is the first time I've heard of ......" Ouyang looked at the green plants and asked with a strange expression, "Since they absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide, why is the oxygen content here so high?"
"Because of the fungus under your feet. "These fungi, and these parasitic plants at the bottom, absorb carbon dioxide and emit oxygen. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air, so it sinks to the bottom, while oxygen is lighter than air and floats up to the sky, creating a cycle. ”
"Is it such a spectacular structure......
Ouyang looked up at the tall trees, smacked his mouth, and suddenly felt a feeling of "If you put a fire, will it be more spectacular".
"Wait a minute, with so many plants growing on one piece of land, won't the land here be barren?" Ouyang was stunned for a moment, "According to the law of conservation of energy, if such a spectacular scene appears in Pengcheng, the nutrients in the soil here should have been drained long ago, right?"
"In fact, that's what I'm baffling with...... said Deochis, "and maybe you'll have to go somewhere else to find out." ”
"yes...... What's going on in Pengcheng?"
................................................
................................................
I'm Jingyang, and I'm surrounded by a group of monsters with twin whip tentacles and twin blades.
I'm a little panicked, but I'm not scared.
Because in my past years of fighting horses, I have been forced into a desperate situation by the state of Wu several times, and in the face of thousands of troops and horses, I almost wanted to be strengthened by swords, but I survived tenaciously.
The situation is much better now than it was then.
The walls of Pengcheng were tall and strong, Pengcheng had abundant food and food in people's homes, and Pengcheng had complete weapons and armor in sufficient quantities.
With so many advantageous advantages, even if you don't have time to harvest grain, it is enough for Pengcheng to stand for half a year.
Besides, I have already had people grow grain in the outer cities, and in three months, there will be brown rice to eat.
I thought I was ready for everything, but I didn't expect that our enemies were so invincible.
It's a terrifying power that makes it difficult to maintain sanity.
I fell to the ground, panicked at the oval-shaped, flattened creature with hundreds of eyes.
It looks like a seashell that lives in the sea, but the shell outside is extremely hideous and terrifying.
Outside of that sturdy armor, hundreds of eyes were watching me.
One hundred and thirty-six!
I immediately came up with the number, but I don't know how.
It was as if it was known in an instant.
You can't imagine that on hard armor, one hundred and thirty-six eyes, one closed, the other opened again.
And between the eyes, seaweed, rolling stones, and filthy attachments that I could not pronounce, tainted my mind above that armor.
One after another knowledge about attachments, thoughts about the deep sea, all poured into my brain.
A fountain of eternal life in the sea?
I was immediately attracted to such a piece of knowledge.
Attracted by this, I stared at one of the eyes, sinking deeper and deeper.
It seems to feel my strong desire to learn, and one of its eyes focuses on me and selflessly shares this knowledge for me.
Just one glance at me, and I instantly collapsed on the ground, almost fainting.
That's a lot of knowledge......
Even Confucius had absolutely no comparable knowledge.
With such a huge amount of knowledge, my brain was temporarily lost.
I must have lost my mind.
Excrement and urine were scattered all over the ground, and the foul smell instantly made me feel a little more awake when I almost fainted.
I opened one eye, but I saw the most unforgettable, the most terrifying in my life, and whenever I think of this scene in the future, I am like a chicken about to be killed, powerless......
The monster, it slowly opened, it could barely be called the organ of the mouth.
No, it's just a mouth, that monster's, the whole body is made of mouths!
And inside that mouth was an indescribable, soft lump of meat.
It was a pale pink lump of flesh with a faint glow.
I wanted to describe it in more detail, but I found it impossible.
Because that's beyond what humans can describe!
It swallowed me, and I don't know how long it took, and I don't know why I was in the middle of a forest.
I think I should have been on the beach one night.
After I was confused for a minute, I cracked my mouth and laughed, rejoicing in the rest of my life, when I didn't notice that my mouth had cracked open to my ears.
Suddenly, there was a large number of green plants growing around at some point.
The surface of these plants is unusually smooth, seemingly filled with moisture, to the point that the surface resembles a mirror.
Through that mirror, I realized that I had completely become that unspeakable monster, but I don't know how many times smaller.
Why did I become like this?
With such doubts, I lost consciousness as I looked at the approaching plants around me.
Before I plunged into complete darkness, I heard these words:
"Containment has been successfully completed, awaiting the right to do so. ”
................................................
Is death terrifying?
It's a given.
This fear comes from the unknown, because we don't know what the world will be like after death, and we don't know when and in what form we will die.
Therefore, the Chinese people have been exploring the method of immortality since ancient times, eager to "become immortals".
Ouyang walked in a forest like Pengcheng, and couldn't help but think of Peng Zu, who could live for eight hundred years.
Regarding the 800-year-old Peng Zu, this statement is not uniform.
Some people think that this is a real 800-year-old, and some people think that this is the national fortune of Dapeng-style country.
But no matter which way you put it, it is inseparable from one point, that is, Peng Zu is a legendary figure who pays great attention to health preservation and is very good at cooking and qigong.
The pursuit of immortality by Chinese has existed since ancient times.
But is immortality really good?
Ouyang thought of the so-called painful saying of immortality on the Internet: saying that people will get tired of living, and if they live too long, they will go crazy.
Below every news and video about prolonging life, you can see people rereading this idea.
There is always a feeling of seeing through the red dust and seeing all the vicissitudes of life in their comments.
Lin Yu, a good friend, told him that these were actually influenced by Christianity and Japan.
Ouyang felt that Lin Yu's point of view still made some sense.
Don't they like to live long?
Definitely.
Westerners dream of ascending to heaven and attaining eternal life, which is the way in their culture to pursue eternal life.
They see the world as a dunghill, a place for sinners, and only by leaving it can they have eternal life.
But in the church age, you need to pay for indulgences to go to heaven, and if there is another way to live forever, who will trust God?
Therefore, of course, we should actively smear the ways of immortality that are not in the interests of the church, such as werewolves, vampires, and witches.
In those more traditional Western films, those who are immortalized by other methods are miserable, widowed, widowed, and lonely.
Then at the end of the film, you will inevitably wake up and convert to God.
Finally the gates of heaven were opened, and a dazzling light was connected, and they enjoyed eternal life.
But don't think about it, this kind of church that sells indulgences will end sooner or later.
With the decline of the Western Church, now vampires have become rich and handsome, male protagonists.
Japan, on the other hand, believes in animism and Buddhism, where people become gods or Buddhas when they die.
Their Buddhahood is very easy, as long as they do not become lonely souls and wild ghosts, whether they enter the six realms of reincarnation or their souls are scattered, they are counted as Buddhas, that is, eternal life.
If you think about it this way, of course, if you stay in the world, you will suffer sin, and you will be happy to become a Buddha.
Many Chinese people watched some foreign movies, and Japanese animation was affected and lamented the pain of immortality, but they didn't know what they were saying:
An annual salary of 100,000 yuan is not the life I want, and it is my ideal to go back and inherit the family consortium.
Then a bunch of poor dicks were moved to tears for the tragic experience of the protagonist.
But I don't know that the oppression in Europe, the wars of religion, the witch hunt, the heresy trial, the killing of thousands of innocent people, are just to compete for a place in heaven for eternal life.
The so-called rich people have no love, no friendship or anything, and the pain of life or something, all of which are self-deception and self-comfort.
The essence of human beings is not only a repeater, but also lemon essence.
The so-called tired of living, the older you get, the more afraid of death, because of broken love, too much homework, confiscated mobile phones, and not allowed to play games and jump off the building, it will not be the elderly.
Look at those old people who are lying in bed in pain, with feces and urine flowing everywhere, rotting and stinking, the last few years of everyone's life are like this, they can't eat and drink gruel, and they still try their best to live for so many more years.
There are also those who say that there will be a population explosion. Do you know the words aging and declining birthrate?
Life expectancy has increased, fertility has decreased, and Japan is now experiencing a net negative population growth.
can enjoy it by yourself, no one will have a child to enjoy it for yourself.
There is also a saying that those who are poor and miserable, take a bowl to beg for food, and it has become an antique for hundreds of years, and you don't need to see a doctor, don't care for the elderly, don't buy a house, and move bricks can make your life very good.
What else is the pain of losing a family and friend, unless you die at an early age, and the short-lived species will also encounter.
They can only hypnotize themselves with this view, to escape their fear of death, so that they can not be too afraid of death.
But when such an opportunity for eternal life does come its way to you, who will give it up so easily?
