Chapter 147: The Contradiction of Immortal Reproduction (10/10
[How to relieve worries? Only ten updates]
There are only two directions for the evolution of living beings.
The immortality of the individual and the reproduction of the species.
Human beings are obviously more inclined to the former.
Compared with ancient humans, the average life span has almost doubled, and the time to maintain youth has also been extended accordingly.
After the spiritual energy is revived, human beings' physical fitness is enhanced, and their strength is also rapidly improved after practice. The average life span is doubled again, and we can go further and longer on the road to individual immortality!
In contrast, human reproduction has a big problem, and many countries are facing the problem of few or no children.
Not only will this problem not get better after the spiritual energy is revived, but it will intensify further.
Xi Tong's article on the practice of making men more masculine has brought a wave of baby boom to many Eastern countries. Based on this alone, Xi Tong is enough to be canonized.
With their superior population base and this wonderful technique, many countries in the East have experienced slight setbacks in reproduction, but overall they have developed steadily.
This also shows that reproduction is the price that humans must pay when pursuing individual immortality.
Weak groups take reproduction as their evolutionary direction, maintain the number of groups, occupy enough living space, and establish a foothold first before pursuing other pursuits.
This is the path that humans have traveled before, and it is also the truth that livestock and beasts are pursuing.
The densely packed birds in the sky and the wave-like herds of beasts on the ground all illustrate this problem.
Don't think this is exaggerated!
Mice and rabbits, like humans, are mammals, but the gestation period of mice is about 20 days, and that of rabbits is 30 days; mice are sexually mature in 3 months, and rabbits are sexually mature in 6 months.
Think about human beings themselves, how old do they need to be to learn to be reckless, and how many times do they have to be reckless before they sow seeds?
Oh, I'm sorry, please allow me to reorganize the language - how old do you have to be to learn to be rude, and how many times do you have to be rude before you sow the seeds?
It only took 20 rabbits 50 years to breed a population of 10 billion in Tu'ao.
This was before the spiritual energy was revived!
Even so, the killings are endless, let alone after the spiritual energy is revived.
Now, Xi Tong can give accurate answers.
Wave every 3 days!
Or two waves every 5 days!
In just five days, the animals in the wild have multiplied into huge groups and besieged human cities, squeezing the living space of humans.
Xi Tong has been recognized by the will of the earth, so he can feel that the will of the earth has no undue favor for human beings.
The so-called "man is the primate of all things" is nothing but a lie that human ancestors deceived themselves and others.
Xi Tong further believes that the world is unkind and treats all things as stupid dogs.
In front of the will of the earth, all things are equal.
Just like refining the poison, the will of the earth only cares about the one that wins in the end, whether it is a scorpion or a centipede, or a new species that is a fusion of the two.
Xi Tong feels that if there is a species that will replace humans, then it must be wolves!
The gestation period of a wolf is about 63 days, and a litter can produce more than ten wolves. The pups open their eyes in about a week, are weaned after five weeks, and are eligible to become a member of the wolf pack after eight weeks.
This is before the spiritual energy is revived!
Now, Xi Tong saw many wolf pups whose fetal hair had not yet faded outside Tuweizi.
They haven't learned to walk yet, but they go out with the wolves. Even if they can't participate in the fight, they still want to imprint the heroic deeds of their ancestors in their hearts.
When they fall, the adult wolf squats next to them, waits for them to stand up, and nudges them with their noses to continue moving forward.
In addition to wolves, there are also dense groups of rabbits, rats, and many unnamed birds and beasts.
This is an alliance initiated by wolves.
The purpose is to get used to the surrounding area where they are.
Xi Tong took a deep breath and sighed: "Both the spiritual spring and Lao Si's watering can are fatally attractive to birds and beasts!"
"Well, there is also Ye Yiruo's Nuwa Spirit Pearl. It would be great if there was space to store props!"
The birds and beasts must have sensed something, so they launched this general attack.
In the eyes of the birds and beasts, the enemy is not very powerful, with only a hundred people in the group.
The profit is the rise of the ethnic group!
High returns, low risks, they have no reason to refuse!
Xi Tong blinked, and the things to the west zoomed in instantly. Xi Tong saw more than one person peeping and paying attention to this place.
No need to think about it, he is from the government.
How could the movements in the old city be hidden from their eyes and ears?
However, they are happy to see someone help them share the firepower.
Regardless of success or failure, they can learn from it.
Why not?
"Let's fight!" Xi Tong raised his hand, "Show us our style and show them!"
This is the time to flex your muscles!
Only by making the government realize the strength of his side can Xi Tong negotiate with them on an equal footing.
Otherwise, Xi Tong foolishly ran over and said that he wanted to defend the city and save the earth, and asked the government for more cooperation.
Even if the government doesn't regard him as a fool, they will treat him as one.
Only when Tuweizi's side repels the siege again and again, while the city's side suffers setbacks again and again, will the status of both sides gradually approach and then become equal.
Perhaps there will be many unnecessary sacrifices in this process.
However, all this is to reduce more unnecessary sacrifices in the future.
"Ouch!"
The alpha wolf gave the order, and the little wolves, which still had fetal hair, also made snarling and even barking sounds to cheer for the elders.
The wolves were the first to charge, and like dominoes, more and more other packs followed.
The three bosses used the vine control at the same time, making them fly and sway, like a whip of more than ten meters, lashing the beasts hard.
The crisscrossing vines were whipped down like a fishing net, instantly clearing a large gap. Some beasts were penetrated by the sharp thorns of thorns and then hung high.
The dripping blood flows down the thorns, making them grow stronger and bigger.
However, the greatest advantage of a herd is its numbers!
They are not afraid of death and forcefully use their flesh and blood to wade a river and pave a road for their fellow humans.
The wolves howled and bit into the thorny vines with their mouths open, even if their upper and lower jaws were pierced by sharp thorns.
More and more wolves rushed forward, biting the thorns and vines, dragging and pulling them, tightly binding them to the ground.
The mice and rabbits immediately rushed forward, their teeth protruding, and they snapped the vines with a few clicks.
Of course, most of them were strung together like candied haws when being beaten by vines.
"Three, it won't work anymore. One-third of the thorns have been lost. The density of the defense network has been greatly reduced. Those beasts can get in directly if they are lucky."
Xi Tong nodded, "That's almost it. All that's left is to watch the show!"
Turning around, Xi Tong shouted: "Are you ready?"
Xi Tong burst out laughing after hearing everyone's accurate answers.
"Then follow me!"
After saying that, Xi Tong rushed to the base of the city wall, jumped over the city wall several times, and entered the stalemate battlefield.
These ordinary beasts are the experience books for students to practice.
