Forty Millenniums of Cultivation Chapter 2348: Euthanasia of emotions and desires
"The Resident in the 10084 area does not have the concept of" sunrise while sunset ". They have not seen the sun for 10,000 years, so they always use the" three shifts "to endless work and rest. Time. "
Li Jialing said deeply, "Every day, very early, they will get up to fertilize various underground plants, moss and mushrooms. These crops did not originally grow in underground, even after genetic modification, they are quite delicate. Weak, it requires them to mix various ground minerals in the feces of rock insects to become fertilizers and grow drugs, and spread them in different ways to thrive, and if they are not careful, they will wither over a large area. It's a disaster for the entire town.
"Finally, wait for the vines, moss and mushrooms to grow, and risk their lives to climb the rock wall, enter the stone cracks to collect them, and then transport them to the cave to be cut and eaten by the rock insects. When the rock worms eat, they have to work hard to massage the rock worms. The skin of the rock worms is extremely tough. The power of the massage is not enough. Strength of Nine Bulls and Two Tigers must be used to activate its flesh and blood. I have been busy for about a dozen for an hour without any exhaustion.
"It ’s so trembling, sweating and raining for a few years that a rock worm can mature into flesh. Hundreds of thousands of rock worms’ 吭哧 哭 哧 'can only be exchanged for a good number of four-digit towns that are thousands of kilometers away The number of Magical Artifact and energy, as well as a can of super-high compression air on the ground are not valuable at all.
"Do n’t talk about the problem of not eating enough, because the fresh air is seriously inadequate, the Resident here never even dares to be too emotional, because whether it is crying or laughing, it will increase oxygen consumption. , To bring unnecessary losses to the total fresh air quota of the town, and over time, they have become such a heart as dead water, as gray as face, unsmiling.
"Only carefree children who are ignorant and unaware of the preciousness of fresh air will laugh out loud and brazenly, consuming more precious oxygen than crystal.
"This is still no accident, and the situation where peaceful can barely survive is already better than death and miserable, let alone the invasion of the savages and Fiend Beast deeper in the underground, or the whole town collapsed due to the earthquake, Or the magma blasted out, turning everyone into ashes in an instant. These natural disasters are all sharp blades hanging above their heads, maybe they will fall in a second, bringing them mental pressure all the time and everywhere. .
"This is a natural disaster, there are human disasters, that is, accidental discovery of mineral veins or ancient ruins!
"The discovery of mineral veins and ruins was supposed to be a good thing, but the Resident here is too weak, and the oxygen supply throat was stuck in the upper towns. There is no ability to protect yourself. In case mineral veins and ruins are really found It is very easy to attract unpredictable, gangsters in upper towns that are difficult to fill, or underground in shallow layers and Immortal Cultivator on the ground.
"At that time, everything was captured as cannon fodder for slave labor and Expeditions relics, and even the qualifications for being slave labor and cannon fodder were not met, either they were deported to a deeper underground and became savages, or were killed After all, Immortal Cultivator naturally has more powerful and well-trained slaves who can take their place.
"This kind of tragedy has not been encountered in District 10084, but other five-digit towns have encountered it many times. If any town finds valuable mineral veins and remains, it often means The coming of destruction, over time, the vast majority of five-figure towns have learned a lesson, to be honest in their one-acre three-point plot to plant mushrooms and raise rock insects, and strictly prohibit Resident from going out Expeditions and taking risks New ore veins and relics have been found, and even only suspected ore veins or relics are often killed mercilessly, leaving secrets in darkness forever.
"Brother Yao, from Star Ocean Republic to Empire of True Humanity, no matter how the political situation and social form on the ground change, these underground people have lived this kind of life for thousands of years, if they really retain strong emotions, That emotion has long been condensed into the word "pain". If they really have a desire, the only desire is to live, and continue to live in such despair.
"Brother Yao, you just said that I was fooled by Elder Sister Long, and I thought about it carefully. I do n’t think that Elder Sister Long ’s approach to brainwashing is correct. I can only say that if there are really a lot of underground Resident willing to accept Elder Sister Long's brainwashing If I lose most of my emotions, then I also understand their approach very well, because what they wash away is nothing but pain that can never be resolved, and hopelessness that can never be reversed. "
Li Yao was speechless and lost in thought.
Li Jialing seems to bring out the depression that has accumulated for ten days or even about a dozen years, all poured out, and continued: "Brother Yao, I heard that in the world of Star Ocean Republic, cultivator more than a thousand years ago, there is a kind of 'humanity' The concept of "ism" believes that when a person suffers from terminal illness and falls into pain that is absolutely impossible to get rid of, he has the right to end his life. This is called euthanasia.
"And in our Empire of True Humanity, we also advocate that when a Immortal Cultivator can no longer contribute to Human Race Civilization, for the dignity and decentness of Immortal Cultivator, it should be generous to die and leave resources to others.
"When I received the modulation that Li Lingfeng and Wuying Lan were better than death, I didn't know that I thought of death once. For me at that time, death was not pain, but a relief.
"The most precious thing is life. If we all agree that in the face of irresistible and unbearable pain, people can choose to voluntarily give up life, then only actively part of the emotion, desire and free will. What can't it be? It must be unethical, completely unacceptable, or even completely incomprehensible? "
"This is two different things."
Li Yao pondered for a long time, and finally slowly said, "I admit that as an individual, you and I have the power to end our lives when we suffer great pains that cannot be resolved. This is indeed in the spirit of humanitarianism.
"But it is one thing for individuals to choose to end their lives. It is quite another thing for a supreme authority over the masses to end everyone's lives on a large scale.
"Individuals can retreat, give up and surrender in the face of pain, but any responsible highest authority should never use" mass euthanasia "to solve the problem. This is not a problem, it is a solution. The person in question '!
"To put it simply, if faced with a lack of resources, the highest authority of Long Yangjun or Saint League requires individuals to suppress their emotions and desires as much as possible, and to reduce resource consumption to the limit. This will require the public to tighten their pants if food shortages occur. What is the difference between the belts? If there is a shortage of food, then try to find a variety of foods. The belts of the trousers must be tightened, and people still have to eat. The seal of Three Great Source Laws is still strong. People still have emotions and desires. Called the spirit of all things!
"So, I can't agree with the Long Yangjun or Saint League authority's" resource shortage solution ", this solution is too little technology content, too irresponsible, and can not solve the fundamental problem, even if underground people really wipe For all emotions and desires, they still have to eat and breathe fresh air, which consumes a little less at most. What is the point of aside from the delay of the inevitable destruction and a little delay?
"Of course, what you just said is not unreasonable. The tip of the iceberg displayed by Long Yangjun has made me understand a little bit why so many people are willing to be branded by Three Great Source Laws. Then, let ’s continue reading Right.
"It ’s enough to see in area 10084. Where are the specific coordinates of Long Yangjun's? Let ’s go to her and ask for a clear answer!"
Li Jialing inserts a special chip on the Li Yao's wrist Crystal Computer, saying that it can connect the Li Yao and Long Yangjun's wrist Crystal Computer together.
Long Yangjun went to the deeper underground to mediate the war between the savages, preaching her "relentless" Great Dao, whereabouts are naturally erratic, and only this chip can lock her precise coordinates.
With a move in his heart, Li Yao asked Li Jialing very curiously, why is there still a large-scale war in Subterranean World?
Li Jialing nodded and said that in general, if it is an established town with Civilization System, there is rarely a large-scale war between each other, mainly because the fresh air of Subterranean World is too precious, even if the heavy physical labor usually sweats like People are careful not to dare to gasp, even if they hold their lips blue, they dare not take a deep breath.
And war is the most oxygen-consuming thing. Just one Burning Bomb that is not much destructive on the ground is enough to exhaust the oxygen in a few tunnels and large underground holes, not to mention the upgraded version of the temperature. Pressure bombs and the like.
So, once the two five-figure towns go to war, it is often a tragedy that hurts both sides. No one wants to get the benefits.
But this does not mean that Human Race can completely abandon its nature and no longer kill each other.
In the event of extreme natural disasters and human disasters, for example, the earthquake will crush most of the towns, magma destroyed all moss, vines and mushroom plantations, or a sudden plague caused the death of all rock insects. In the disaster of extinction, the survivors had no choice but to form droves in groups, like crazy, to fight against the neighboring towns.
This kind of hasty and concentrated attack ended in a terrible defeat. The loser had no way back, so he could only venture deeper into the deeper underground, even the dark death area with no number.
99% of them will become savages and Fiend Beast's meals, and 1% of the "lucky ones" will soon lose their nature, wipe out their wisdom, and become a new generation of savages.
