Yuan Xia spent more than sixty years building a utopian Datong society for the people of Haiming with technology that spanned the ages...
In this society, even the concept of "private property" is somewhat vague, because when productivity becomes strong enough, anything can be owned at any time.
The result of this is that people gradually lose their enterprising spirit and become accustomed to a comfortable life.
It does not take a hundred years, but only thirty years of effort. The Datong society that Yuan Xia spent more than sixty years painstakingly building is at risk of collapse.
More and more people, especially the newly born Starfish people after the war, are mostly addicted to comfort, while the operation of the entire Starfish civilization is driven by a small group of people who still have a sense of responsibility.
But in the past thirty years, it is natural that the development of Haixing has completely stagnated...
"How could this happen?" Yuan Xia felt depressed in his heart, after all, this was his own hard work.
Su Li sighed and said: "Because you have eliminated all foreign enemies... If a civilization loses external pressure, then its internal structure will quickly decay, no matter how perfect it is."
"What's more, is the blueprint you built really that perfect?"
Yuan Xia was speechless. He already knew where his problem lay. He ignored the consideration of people's hearts... He had indeed greatly enriched the materials that this civilization could produce, but he had neglected to deal with this richness.
The barren spirit corresponding to material things!
It's true... if you don't have a rich enough spiritual state, even enjoying material wealth is a wrong thing.
Yuan Xia was confused for a moment, and he asked: "Master, how should we deal with this situation? What did the El people do?"
It turns out that he built the Haiming society based on the social structure of the Aiel people to a certain extent... He succeeded in the beginning, so he was able to return to the spacecraft with peace of mind.
But now it seems that the so-called success is just a temporary appearance. After Yuan Xia left, the system fell at an alarming rate.
Su Li looked at the confused disciple, and then said: "You just saw the technological status and living conditions of the Ayr people. Didn't you realize that the Ayr people only have three professions in total?"
Yuan Xia was slightly confused, then realized something and said: "Scientists... and artists and philosophers?"
Su Li nodded and said: "All Al people can be covered by these three professions... and other things besides these three professions do not need them to worry about at all, because naturally Al will do it for them.
They solved everything."
Yuan Xia was slightly dazed after hearing this, and then asked: "So what Hai Xing lacks is an artificial intelligence dominated by Hai Ming's will?"
Su Li shook his head: "No, that's just the path of the Aier people... As for the road of the Haiming people... don't feel discouraged. You have laid all the prerequisites for the Haiming people to follow their own path. Let's see next.
How did they make their own choice?"
Yuan Xia was stunned. He couldn't understand, but couldn't say anything more. He finally decided to follow Su Li and continue to observe...
Time continued to pass, and another fifty years passed.
The development of the entire human civilization on Star Sea has completely stagnated. Everyone is staying in their homes, holding on to the materials that can last a lifetime. No one is even maintaining the most basic public health. The entire civilization is about to collapse.
You are stuck in the mire of stench and cannot extricate yourself.
Just when Yuan Xia couldn't help but want to intervene in the development of civilization again, someone finally stood up on the Star of the Sea...
Those are the only remaining scientists.
They realized that it was impossible for the Starfish civilization to continue developing like this, and that something must change.
And with a breakthrough in life sciences, this opportunity finally came...
From now on, human life is no longer a short period of more than a hundred years, but can be continuously increased through the transformation of life science... This is also the blessing left by Yuan Xia, originating from the life science of the Aier people, and for Haiming
It is definitely something that transcends the times for people.
Scientists did not diffuse this technology, but made it the core of maintaining a new form of civilization!
They did not change the lifestyle that everyone was accustomed to, but they issued a brand new rule...According to one's knowledge and contribution, one can gain extra lives!
No matter how well an ordinary person takes care of himself, his life will be over in almost a hundred years.
But if they pass the review of those scientists, then they can exchange their wisdom and contributions for corresponding extra lives...
So Hai Mingren, who was originally drunk and dreaming, suddenly woke up. He could live longer. Who wouldn't want to live longer?
The ambition that had disappeared was rediscovered, and everyone began to work, study, and find ways to meet the requirements of the scientists, thereby increasing their life span.
The 'currency' that had been eliminated by Yuan Xia for nearly a hundred years reappeared, and this time the general equivalent was human life.
So there is a fork in the road in the lives of the people of Haiming. They can choose to enjoy the abundant material things as before, live for a hundred years without disaster, and then die.
But there is another way. They can stay motivated, continue to learn and work, show their own value, and then gain more lives.
Theoretically, the upper limit of that kind of life technology can add thousands of years to human life... Of course, if there is a breakthrough in technology, it is not impossible to continue to improve and even live forever.
In this way, the vitality of the starfish civilization was re-stimulated.
And because of this, the classes that were briefly eliminated by Yuan Xia also reappeared... The division between short-lived people and long-lived people made the entire society once again have two opposing parts.
In fact, this is also a disguised division between 'elite' and 'ordinary'...but the contradiction seems to be less prominent, because the lives of short-lived people are their own choices, and they are equivalent to a group of people who have given up on themselves.
The long-lived people are the main force pushing society forward. When they are tired and want to stop and rest, they can choose to wait quietly for the end of their lifespan instead of fighting for more lives.
The entire civilization has turned into a strange appearance that the original hero does not recognize.
Because of their pursuit of life, this new civilization of the Haiming people also has a pathological pursuit of technology and knowledge.
And under this pursuit, the group of long-lived people gradually began to separate from the short-lived people. They obviously originated from the same race, but unexpectedly, the result seemed to be split into two civilizations!
Yuan Xia and Su Li stayed in this sea star for another three hundred years. They watched this separation happen, and then watched the longevity people group establish an immigration space station, and then all the longevity people groups immigrated to the space station.
Survive.
On this immigrant space station, they got rid of their old living habits and began to learn how to survive in the universe.
They began to focus on the boundless starry sky and use their own wisdom to explore the secrets of deep space.
The short-lived people who stayed on the ground were gradually dissatisfied with the status quo. They had always been in the status of "the ruled". Although they had no worries about food and clothing, they began to want to gain "freedom".
So the war started. The short-lived people were no longer willing to succumb to the control of the long-lived people. They wanted to get more...
But the long-lived people were extremely surprised by the resistance of the short-lived people. They didn't know why these people who were eating, drinking and waiting to die still resisted. They never had any demands or even expectations from the short-lived people.
So from the beginning, the Longevity People were retreating steadily, and soon the entire Star Sea was caught in the flames of war, and many of the Longevity People's important facilities were destroyed.
At this time, the long-lived people in the immigration space station suddenly made an unexpected decision... After retrieving all the long-lived people who had fallen into the sea, they suddenly activated the space station and then completely escaped from the sea.
The orbit of the star is heading into deep space!
Every long-lived person is an elite, and those in power are even more incredible scientists.
Their thinking is absolutely cruel. When facing the resistance of the short-lived people on the ground, what they think of is not to suppress it, but to treat the entire Starfish as a burden and abandon it directly!
As a result, the starfish civilization was divided into two, and the longevity people became an interstellar civilization led by scientists with the theme of exploration and discovery.
And the short-lived people...
They stopped the destruction in their hands at a loss, and then faced the planet they had devastated, they suddenly didn't know how to continue.
The long-lived people have left, and the short-lived people first feel that the mountain weighing on their heads has finally been removed, and they can breathe free air as they wish.
But then, they were at a loss... The war destroyed many things, including various production facilities that allowed them to maintain a comfortable life.
They seem to be 'free', but the price is that they have also lost their previous life where they could eat and wait to die without any worries.
And if you want to live, you must study, work on your own, and find ways to activate all the facilities that the long-lived people have not had time to take away or cannot take away!
Then something ironic happened.
Because they are not satisfied with the superiority of long-lived people, they are unwilling to learn boring knowledge, and they do not want to face the contempt of long-lived people.
So they chose to resist for the sake of spiritual satisfaction.
As a result, now that they have successfully resisted, they have to rely on learning the devices and knowledge left by the longevity people to survive.
Originally, they could reject that knowledge arbitrarily...but now they have to learn it, because if they don't learn, they won't be able to survive.
What's more, the originally generous life?
In order to survive, they must first fight each other for limited living supplies!
There must be people who regret it, and there must be innocent people implicated, but all of this is the price of their willfulness and laziness.
As a result, Star Sea has entered a new cycle of civilization, and the short-lived people have returned to the inherent cycle of alternating civilizations...
On the El spaceship, Su Li and Yuan Xia quietly watched all the dust settle, and were amazed by the unpredictable development of world affairs.
In fact, the current civilization of long-lived people still remains in the starfish system, and they even watched the chaotic end of these short-lived people not far away.
