Chapter 2358

"The residents of 10084 district do not have the concept of" work at sunrise and rest at sunset ". They have not seen the sun for 10000 years, so they all use the" three shifts "never-ending work and rest time."

Li Jialing said with deep feeling, "very early every day, they have to get up and fertilize all kinds of underground plants, mosses and mushrooms. These crops do not originally grow in the ground, and even though they are genetically modified, they are quite delicate. They need to mix various minerals ground into fine powder in the dung of rock insects to become fertilizers and growth agents, and then they can be sown in different ways, To thrive, a little careless, it will be a large area of wilt, it is simply the destruction of the whole town.

"It's hard to wait for the vines, mosses and mushrooms to grow. They have to risk their lives to climb up the rock wall and enter the crevices to collect them, and then transport them to the cave to cut them up for the rock insects to eat. When the rock insects eat, they have to work hard to massage the rock insects. The skin of the rock insects is extremely tough, and the strength of the massage is not enough. They have to use the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, Only in this way can we activate its flesh and blood, and keep busy for more than ten hours without a second. We are not exhausted.

"After so many years of work and sweat, one rock worm can mature and produce meat. Hundreds and thousands of rock worms can only be carried to four digit towns thousands of meters away in exchange for a handful of magic weapons and energy, as well as cans of ultra-high compressed air that is not worth money on the ground.

"Let's not talk about the problem of not having enough to eat. Because there is a serious shortage of fresh air, the residents here never dare to be too excited, because whether they cry or laugh or make a big noise, they will increase the consumption of oxygen and bring unnecessary loss to the total fresh air quota of cities and towns. As time goes by, they will become like this, their heart is like stagnant water and their face is like ashes, I'm not a man of words.

"Only carefree children who are not sensible and don't know the value of fresh air will laugh freely and consume more precious oxygen than crystal.

"There are still no accidents. If we can barely survive in peace, we will be in a state of life and suffering. Let alone in case of the invasion of savages and monsters deeper in the earth, or the collapse of the whole town caused by an earthquake, or the eruption of magma, which makes everyone turn into ashes in an instant. These natural disasters are all sharp blades hanging above their heads, Maybe the next second will fall down, bring them all the time, ubiquitous mental pressure.

"It's a natural disaster, and it's also a man-made disaster. It's the accidental discovery of ore veins or ancient relics!

"It should have been a good thing to find the veins and relics, but the residents here are too weak, and they are stuck in the throat of oxygen supply by the upper level towns, so they have no ability to protect themselves. If the veins and relics are really found, it is very easy to attract the upper level town gangs with ulterior motives, or the shallow underground and ground immortals.

"At that time, they will be either captured to serve as slave workers and cannon fodder for exploring relics, or they will not even be qualified to serve as slave workers and cannon fodder. They will either be expelled to the deeper underground and become savages, or they will be killed directly. Naturally, the immortal practitioners will have stronger and better trained slave workers who can take their place.

"Such a tragedy has never happened in 10084 District, but it has happened many times in other five digit towns. If any town finds valuable veins and relics, it often means destruction. Over time, most of the five digit towns have learned a lesson and honestly stayed in their own three-thirds of an acre to grow mushrooms and raise rock insects, It is strictly forbidden for residents to go out to explore and take risks. If they find new veins and relics, or even just suspected veins and relics, they will be killed mercilessly, leaving the secret in the dark forever.

"Brother Yao, from Xinghai Republic to human Empire, no matter how the political situation and social form on the ground change, these underground people have always lived this kind of life for thousands of years. If they really retain strong emotions, then their emotions have long been condensed into the word" pain ". If they really have desires, their only desire is to live, Just continue to live in despair.

"Brother Yao, you just said that I was fooled by sister long. I've thought it over carefully. I don't think sister long's approach to brainwashing is right. I can only say that if there are many underground residents willing to accept sister long's brainwashing and wash away most of their emotions, then I understand their approach very well, because they wash away their emotions, It's just the pain that can never be resolved, the despair that can never be reversed. "

Lee was silent and deep in thought.

Li Jialing seemed to pour out all the depression that had been accumulated for ten days or even more than ten years, and continued: "brother Yao, I heard that in the Xinghai Republic more than a thousand years ago, in the world of practitioners, there was a concept of" Humanitarianism "that when a person suffered from a terminal disease and fell into absolute pain, he had the right to end his life, This is called euthanasia.

"In our human Empire, it is also advocated that when an immortal can no longer contribute to human civilization, he should die generously and leave his resources to others for the sake of his dignity and dignity.

"When I was modulated by Li Lingfeng and Wu Yinglan, I did not know that I once thought of death. For me at that time, death was not pain, but relief.

"The most precious thing for people is life. If we all agree that people can choose to give up life when facing the unbearable and unbearable pain, then what's wrong with just giving up a part of emotion, desire and free will? Must it be against ethics, totally unacceptable or even totally incomprehensible? "

"It's two things."

Li Yao pondered for a long time and finally said slowly, "I admit that you and I, as individuals, have the right to end their lives when they are suffering from irresolvable pain - this is indeed in line with the spirit of humanitarianism.

"But it's one thing for individuals to choose to end their own lives. It's quite another thing for a supreme authority above the public to end all people's lives on a large scale.

"Individuals can retreat, give up and surrender in the face of pain, but no responsible supreme authority should solve problems by means of" mass euthanasia "- this is not to solve problems at all, but to solve" the people who have problems "!

"To put it simply, in the face of a shortage of resources, the highest authorities of longyangjun or shengmeng ask individuals to suppress their emotions and desires as much as possible and reduce the consumption of resources to the limit. What's the difference between this situation and the situation of food shortage that requires people to tighten their belts? If there is a shortage of food, we should find a way to get more food. No matter how tight the waistband is, people still have to eat; No matter how firm the seal of the three laws of origin is, people are still called the spirit of all things because of the existence of emotion and desire!

"Therefore, I can't agree with the" resource shortage solution "proposed by long Yangjun or the shengmeng authorities. This solution is too unskilled and irresponsible, and can't solve the fundamental problem at all. Even if the underground people really kill all their emotions and desires, they still have to eat and breathe fresh air. At most, it costs a little less, What's the point of delaying the inevitable destruction?

"Of course, what you said just now is not unreasonable. The tip of the iceberg displayed by long Yangjun has made me understand why so many people are willing to be branded with the three basic principles. Let's continue to look at it.

"District 10084 has seen enough. Where is long Yangjun's specific coordinate? We'll go to her and ask her for it now!"

Li Jialing inserted a special chip into Li Yao's wrist crystal brain, saying that in this way, Li Yao and long Yangjun's wrist crystal brain can be connected together.

Long Yangjun went deeper underground to mediate the war between savages and publicize her "heartless and lustless" road. Naturally, her whereabouts are erratic. Only this chip can lock her precise coordinates.

Li Yao moved in his heart and asked Li Jialing curiously, how can there be a large-scale war in the underground world?

Li Jialing nodded his head and said, "generally speaking, if it's a built-up town with a civilized system, there are few large-scale wars between them. The main reason is that the fresh air in the underground world is too precious. Even with heavy physical labor, people are careful not to gasp, even if they hold their lips blue.

War is the most oxygen consuming thing. A single incendiary bomb with little destructive power on the ground is enough to exhaust oxygen in several tunnels and large underground cavities, not to mention upgraded thermobaric bombs.

Therefore, once two five digit towns go to war, they are often tragedies of both sides. No one can get any benefits.

But this does not mean that human beings can completely give up their nature and stop killing each other.

If there is an extreme natural and man-made disaster, such as the earthquake will crush most of the towns, magma will destroy all the moss, vines and mushroom plantations, or a sudden plague will lead to the death of all the rock insects. Once faced with this kind of disaster, the survivors have no choice but to fight in groups, like crazy demons, against the neighboring towns.

Most of the time, this hasty attack will end in a disastrous defeat. The loser has no way back, so he can only venture deeper into the dark death area where there is no number.

Among them, 99% of the people will become a feast for savages and monsters, while 1% of the "lucky ones" will soon lose their nature, lose their wisdom and become a new generation of savages.
