For Yu Zhe, studying and practicing martial arts are tiring. He had been fresh all day and was exhausted when he came back. After a hasty dinner, he got into the bedroom and fell asleep.
"Saiduo, get up and have breakfast." Cheng Dong called his son downstairs.
"I'm going to sleep for a while, don't make any noise." The young man covered his head with a quilt and prepared to sleep in.
"Your mother is back!" My father didn't hear the reaction from upstairs, so he resorted to his trump card in desperation.
¡°I¡¯ll be back when I¡¯m back, I¡¯m not afraid.¡± The young man muttered in protest, but quickly got up, put on his clothes, and started to wash up.
Ji Lala just arrived home and slept in the palace last night. Smitya liked to hold meetings, which was an unpleasant habit. After the ministers protested several times, he changed his ways and rarely held meetings. The situation was tense now and had to be launched. In addition to deploying the remaining forces to completely eliminate the temple, it was to deal with the towns, villages and nobles involved in the riot.
"Mom, the Pan family didn't participate in this riot, right?" Yu Zhe asked Ji Lala who was eating as soon as he entered the main restaurant.
"It's hard to tell. We are discussing. The rebel forces all say that they were hypnotized by the temple and can't help themselves. We can't tell the truth from the false. It's a headache."
Gilala took a sip of juice and continued, "The trouble in the temple is easy to deal with, but the rebels are difficult to identify. The nobles now have status, and there is no benefit in following the temple. They all know the power of the people of Lunt, so they should not I'll do stupid things. Forget it, it's more tiring to use your brain than your hands, so I don't want to do it anymore."
It was relatively rare for the eight members of the family to eat together in the main restaurant. Yu Zhe did not ask any more questions and listened to other people chatting. This kind of important matter is not the concern of minors. The Kingdom of Lunt is not in such a state that it needs young people to be military advisors. .
Ji Lala didn't want to use her brain, so Yu Zhe and his younger siblings were in pain and couldn't go out to play. They spent the morning practicing, which was very painful for the crew members who looked at them with dismay.
"Do you think he will come over today?" Chun Dan asked Qu Long.
Qu Long thought for a while, "He should come. He has a strong thirst for knowledge. The information I gave yesterday was only part of it. It is impossible for him to stop reading even half of it. Even though he is very strong and not short in stature, in fact He is a child, and his mental age is probably about the same as that of an eight or nine-year-old child on Earth."
Chundan disagreed, "How do you know how old his mental age is? I think people in Lunt are very smart. We have been here for a long time, but we haven't found any useful information. Even the guards are very smart. . Let¡¯s not talk about this anymore, what are you going to do with Jinpan Kuiguo?¡±
Qu Long said without thinking: "Of course I can keep such a good thing and sell it at a good price on Earth. I believe many rich people will be willing to pay a high price for it."
Chun Dan moved his mouth but said nothing. Just as he was about to leave to work, Qu Long suddenly grabbed him and said, "How about we share one pill and keep the remaining one to sell?"
Chundan laughed loudly, pointed at the computer engineer and said: "I originally wanted to do this, but this thing is precious, so I hesitated for a long time. Didn't you listen to what the kid said? Even the people in Lunte rarely eat it. Even if he didn't say it, Just by looking at the appearance of Jin Pankui, you can tell that it is a rare treasure."
"Eat first and then talk about it. Whether you can return to Earth smoothly is still a question mark. Even if you don't make any money on this trip, a trip to Tabos and eating fairy fruit will be considered a life worth living."
Qu Long said exaggeratedly, without stopping, he took out the box containing the golden plate of Kui Guo from the password box and opened it gently. The aroma filled the room. The two of them looked at Pan Kui Guo, swallowed their saliva, and said in unison: "Never mind, eat it and think about it later."
The golden pankui fruit is worthy of its reputation as the best. Soon after entering the mouth, it turns into juice and fills the mouth with fragrance. The two of them suddenly felt refreshed, breathing from every pore on their bodies, and then began to feel a little dizzy, a very comfortable dizziness.
"Isn't this a stimulant? Many stimulants on the earth are extracted from plants." Qu Long said.
Chun Dan sniffed and said disdainfully: "You are just suspicious. If that kid brings Jin Pankui over again, it will all be mine."
"What a beautiful thought! Even if it is a stimulant, I admit it. I suspect it is a fairy fruit. People in Lunte say that Tabos is the planet of gods. Maybe it is true and not a religion."
Chun Dan glanced diagonally upward and expressed his attitude to his friend clearly. Suddenly there was a shout outside the door, "I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to eat too." Then there was a sound of footsteps.
The two people in the room looked at each other speechlessly. Kelly had always wanted to be the big boss. Last night he was the one who took the lead in proposing to sell it for money. Unexpectedly, there were times when he couldn't help it. I thought he had great self-control.
After waiting for a long time but not seeing the indigenous boy, the crew had to start working. During lunch, they took inventory and found that half of the pankui fruit had gone into everyone's stomach. As for Fei Caiguo, only the older Dr. Bogart wanted to leave it to his three children.??, who couldn't bear to eat, the others did not hesitate to destroy one of their stocks.
We continued working in the afternoon, but there was still no sign of the indigenous boy. By night, the crew had given up. It seemed that the benefits were not always there. The Luntians might not be interested in the technology of the Earthlings. Maybe they had more advanced ones, but they were just hiding them. Let the people of Earth know.
Yu Zhe originally wanted to go there in the afternoon, but Gilala said that the future was not optimistic and the temple was nothing, so he changed his plan and started making bullets. He also went to Tobalo Mountain and was very busy. Another rifle needs to be manufactured, and several barrels need to be purchased as spares. Although special bullets are precious, they are very effective. The more the better.
Even if there are previous templates, these tasks cannot be completed in a short time. Seven days passed in a flash, and Yu Zhe worked until late at night every day, so naturally he had no time to go to Kingsley Spaceport. The crew had long given up hope that the indigenous boy would come back. Unexpectedly, he would show up and bring something else, a large amount of gold and a small amount of ordinary panqui fruits. The crew accepted it politely, feeling both happy and disappointed.
Yu Zhe came very early this time because his mother went to Toruze, so he ended the practice early and sneaked out. He has not been idle these days. Every day before going to bed, he will recall what he has learned to consolidate and strengthen it. Soon after he sat down at the computer, he was able to catch up with the progress smoothly. Chinese is more complicated. There are differences in the vocabulary and sentences between modern Chinese and the Chinese my father taught me at some time. Fortunately, the words have not changed much. There are not many people who speak I'Aifo, so he has no plans to learn it. He plans to focus on Chinese and English, and learn French by the way. His first impression was that the Eif people had many ethnic groups and many languages. Then he thought of Saya, who was easily proficient in many alien languages, and felt that the future would be difficult unless he did not live in the royal capital.
"There's nothing fun in the capital. The worst I can do is go back to Haji Village to live in the future. Saiya can't see me, and she can't train me even if she wants to. Dad, dad, you've done me a terrible job."
"How about going to live on Earth, how about living there?" Yu Zhe had a sudden thought, and then shook his head. The Earth is too far away, and the living environment and humanistic environment are definitely not as good as Tabers.
The crew members were very busy. When Yu Zhe was tired, he went over to see their progress. Knowing that it would still take quite a long time, he felt relieved. Although this is an ordinary Yiifu cargo spacecraft, it has fascinated the indigenous teenagers. The temple burned a large amount of data. The Lunte people will not be able to compete with the Yiifu people in spacecraft technology in the short term.
The well-behaved alien boy often brought some souvenirs over. There were more and more gifts in the spacious warehouse, some of which were very precious. The crew members were overjoyed. Taking in an alien student could bring such a big harvest, which they had never imagined before. The situation in the royal capital gradually stabilized, and what was left was a war of words that was not easy to sort out. No one knew what the leaders of the rebel forces who followed the temple thought, and this became their life-saving straw.
There have always been heavy troops stationed near Kingsley Spaceport. As the situation improved, Kelly's team was in no hurry to leave. They came all the way to Tabers and it would be impossible not to make money. Zhang Wenya, the chief financial officer of the spaceship, led his men to sell goods in the trading area every day. Qu Long, who didn't have much to do, was often treated as a coolie by her. The teacher had no time, so the alien students had to study on their own. Fortunately, the brain named "Jinyin" was very smart. Yu Zhe was able to find out all the information he wanted to know within the scope authorized by Qu Long, including Yi Aifu's humanities and history. and geography, commonly used weights and measures, etc. To the top management, the basic situation of the Yifu people was not a secret, but he didn't know it, so he asked Jin Yin to give a brief introduction.
Jinyin was very happy to have someone to chat with. His recognition ability seemed to be higher than that of the crew members. He almost didn¡¯t ask Yu Zhe¡¯s difficult-to-understand Chinese for a second time. Due to the difficulty of understanding for teenagers, Jin Yin gave a simple introduction on the display screen.
Calendar year: This year is the year 3000127 in the Talbos year and the year 5502 in the Earth year. The recorded history of civilization in Iifu is about 10,000 years old.
Origin: The ancestors of the Ief people are all earthlings. The small galaxy where the earth is located is called the solar system. It is about 5360 light-years away from the galaxy where the planet Tebos is located. Due to changes in the position of the stars, there are slight differences at different times.
Population and ethnic groups: approximately 27 billion, with an average life span of approximately 260 years.
Territory: 12 habitable planets and 79 mining planets.
"Gold and Silver, what energy source do you use? I only see the engine." The alien student was a little curious.
Jin Yin responded quickly, "You need to ask Captain Kelly. The authorization I received only includes some basic information. I hope you don't mind."
"Well, it's normal. I won't blame you. Every race has its secrets."
Yu Zhe can think of it wisely. The Lunte people keep secrets from the Yiifu people. It is impossible for them to open up about everything. It is already good that they are willing to teach themselves some basic knowledge. If they were really not wary at all, Yifu would not continue to this day. They are not the only civilization in the huge galaxy.
Just as I was thinking about it, Dr. Bogart came in and said, "Saido, you are so polite, giving me such a precious gem."
When the crew was taking stock of the gifts, Kelly, Qu Long and Bogart found that their gifts had one more gemstone than their companions. It looked very good and was definitely worth a lot of money when you held it in your hand, because the gemstone was not only beautiful but also warm. Geiger Counter But there is no radiation index displayed. I have never seen it before.
"You should. You have helped my father a lot. You can't just take it lightly." Yu Zhe stood up and moved a chair for Bao Jia. The doctor was a bit dumbfounded. The indigenous students didn't know who taught them, and their habits were similar to those of some Chinese people.
"Why is the lifespan of the Ifu people so short? We Lunt people can live to be 1,500 years old." The international students asked questions that professionals could answer.
Bogart smiled and said: "You really know how to ask questions. This happens to be my field and I know it better than anyone else. The original life span of people on earth is even lower, with an average of only about 80 years old. We have studied for thousands of years before we can barely raise the question." The current age is 260 years old, and the maximum is about 300 years old.¡±
Yu Zhe was puzzled, "Your technology is so advanced, life extension shouldn't be a problem."
Bogart smiled bitterly, "It's not that simple. It's very difficult to transform a stable species. Our research on transforming humans began more than 3,000 years ago, but transforming humans is a very delicate topic, with many problems, and it even happened twice. The turmoil in reforming people has resulted in heavy losses.¡±
"Keep talking." Seeing Bojia stop, Yu Zhe couldn't help but urge.
"Don't worry, this topic is long. I'm going to make a cup of coffee. How about you? I guess you don't know what coffee is. Give it a try, maybe you'll like it."
Looking at the steaming black liquid, Yu Zhe was a little curious. He picked it up and took a sip. He found that it had no taste, so he put it down and stopped drinking. Bogart tasted it happily, and even took out a smoking rod and took a sip, enjoying it very much.
"The taste of the Lunte people is somewhat different from that of the Iifu people. I like to drink pure coffee, and the coffee I poured for you is also pure coffee. It is very bitter. I didn't expect you to have no reaction at all. It seems that the differences between races are really very big. , business is not easy to do."
Yu Zhe didn¡¯t know what to say. Bo Jia saw the confusion of the alien students, so he stopped sighing and continued the topic of transforming people.
"Lifespan is an important parameter that affects racial habits and social culture. After a significant increase in lifespan, people think differently, which will lead to changes in social structure and economic activities. For example, I am 62 years old. According to my original lifespan, I should retire soon. Instead of running to Tabos like now. Although I look old, in fact I am still a young man among the Yifu people, and my three children are all less than ten years old."
Yu Zhe laughed when he heard this and said: "My dad is over 110 years old, my mom is young, 76 this year, and I am the eldest son in the family and will be 18 years old soon. People in Lunte say that my mom has a serious early marriage, and she is over 100 years old." There are many people who have not yet married, such as my master Bo Tatai, who is over 300 years old and still single. He practices martial arts all day long. Others say he is gay, but in fact he is not, he just finds women troublesome."
Bogart laughed loudly, "There are different races and they are not comparable."
Yu Zhe didn't say anything more, and Bojia continued, "Earthlings, the ancestors of the Iive people, have relatively fragile bodies, short lifespans, and high fertility rates. Before the first biochemical crisis, the earth's population reached 8 billion. After the biochemical crisis, only It took less than a hundred years to regain this number."
Professionals are indeed not as good as laymen talking nonsense. Yu Zhe listened with great interest and asked questions one after another. Bao Jia also became interested and talked non-stop.
Immortality has always been the good wish of the Iifu people. Around 2100, the first batch of mildly modified people who took reliable life-extending products appeared. Because the price of life-extending products that met the standards of systematic medicine was very high, there were only some wealthy people at first. and the powerful class can enjoy it. Ordinary people were naturally unwilling to be deprived of the right to live forever. They often held demonstrations and vicious cases, which eventually led to a great chaos. A large company that was the first to develop a reliable life-extending solution was forced to disclose research data under the pressure of public opinion. Based on the company's research data, many scientific research institutions have successively developed life extension products with different requirements and side effects, which are widely used by people on earth.
This landmark scientific research achievement brings more than just benefits. Earth?Diseases began to increase, and mutants appeared one after another. After studying statistical data, medical institutions found that the average fertility rate of people on earth has decreased. In addition to changes in social concepts that have led to delayed marriage or not getting married at all, the fertility of people on earth has also declined, and the number of infertile people has increased on a large scale. In addition, there appears to be a downward trend in group IQ. It is obvious that this seemingly safe and complete mild human body modification program only takes into account the imperfect system medical standards and cannot be used throughout the entire planet.
Compared with future generations, many people value their own lifespan and powerful abilities more. These people were later called "reformed people" by the people on earth. The fertility rate of transformed people is unstable, sometimes high and sometimes low, or even completely losing fertility. Some special abilities cannot be passed down to future generations stably. Mutants are another species that changes frequently, and their genetics are even more unstable. After being restricted by the bill, this group of people has become a branch that is not popular with ordinary people on earth. A small number of mutants live in human society and are deeply hidden. The majority are mainly engaged in abnormal occupations. They are a group of people spurned by mainstream society and are often hunted down by major forces.
??Obviously, human body modification is not simple. Extending lifespan and enhancing other aspects of the human body cannot be easily solved in the short term. Earth's scientific research institutions began to focus on human body modification programs that can obtain stable genetics to minimize mutations and maintain the operation of the human immune system. The United Nations Health Department took the lead in organizing major research and development institutions to start a long-term study that will last for thousands of years and proceed slowly to avoid irreversible damage to human society.
After the establishment of the Earth Federation, the Federal Ministry of Health took over the management of this super project. After thousands of years of development, the Federation has developed four categories: ordinary people (mildly modified people), modified people, mutants and primitive people. Due to the extremely high difficulty of human body modification, people on earth continue to develop biological computers and more powerful weapons and auxiliary equipment. Biological armor, mechanical armor and biological computers have gradually become popular configurations. Some primitive people who insist on tradition are still surviving on the earth tenaciously. Their numbers are not large. They cannot obtain enough resources. Several rebellions have been extinguished by the federal army. The remaining people are under the control of the Federal Population Agency, the Ministry of Health and the military. under joint supervision.
When Yu Zhe heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "Why are these primitive people so stubborn? Don't they want to live longer?"
Bogart said with a smile: "People have all kinds of strange ideas, and brainwashing is everywhere. Some people think that human beings were created by God and should not go beyond the framework prescribed by God. This will lead to the destruction of human beings; other people are superstitious that human beings have superpowers. It¡¯s just that they haven¡¯t been developed. They are keen on martial arts and mysticism, and they practice as hard as the Lunt people, but they have never had an advantage in front of the federal army¡¯s Cyborg troops. Did you know that after the planet Tabos was discovered, This group of people have a new excuse, saying that the Lunt people are the ancestors of the Iafu people. Your appearance is very different from ours. If it weren't for the huge gravity of Tabos, you should be about the same height as the giants in mythology. I have the honor to give Your father checked his body and became the first Earthling to know the detailed physical constitution of the Lunt people. I hope you don¡¯t mind if I go back and tell the Earthlings.¡±
Yu Zhe didn't care, "The Lunt people won't care. These are not secrets. Both parties will know more clearly in the future."
Bogart shook his head, "You are still young and don't understand. In fact, someone came to see us in Karsgard the day after you arrived. I know that you are highly developed and I didn't dare to hide it. I told you straight away and they cleared the relevant information." data, and said that if you want to do business in Lunt in the future, it is best not to save the data and just know it yourself.¡±
After the doctor finished speaking, he pointed to his head, "I don't even know when you erased the data in my biological computer. I was scared at the time, for fear of offending the Lunt people. But this is also my fault. Let's get off the spacecraft. At that time, I saw the relevant regulations, but I just kept them out of curiosity."
Yu Zhe was silent for a moment, then asked: "Are the Lunt people and the Yifu people really very different?"
Bogart nodded, "Yes, although we are all carbon-based life forms, the bones of Earthlings are made of calcium, while yours are made of an unknown elastic crystal that is dozens of times stronger than ours. In addition, your skin , muscles, and blood are all different from us. Just kidding, the Lunt people might really be the ancestors of people on Earth. Genes are only one aspect. Some of our aesthetics are very similar to yours. The genes of the new species we created are similar to those of us. We are also different, but in line with our aesthetic standards, similar to the Lunt people. I have been here for a long time, and I feel more and more that there is a secret. The genetics of the Lunt people are very stable, indicating that they are a mature species, not a modified species Human beings have a long history of civilization. They may have visited the earth in history and created our ancestors. Any new species that wants to have stable inheritance in a certain environment must make changes. What you see are pure earth people. We Descendants of several living stars have shown stable mutations to adapt to the local environment to varying degrees. In fact, this is also the internal phenomenon of our Yiif people.One of the reasons. "
"Bogart, what are you talking about? Come here and help me look at my foot. It was flattened by a piece of iron. It's really unlucky." Chundan shouted nearby and limped toward the medical room.
"I'll go over there first. Take your time and take a look. If you have any questions, you can ask Jin Yin. He's very smart." After saying this, Bojia stood up immediately. He knew that Chun Dan liked to curse, so he didn't dare to keep him waiting.
Yu Zhe stood up, said goodbye to the doctor, and sat in a chair in a daze, "It's getting more and more interesting. In the past, the Yifu people said that the Toto people were the ancestors of the Tufara people. I don't know if it is true. The secret of Tabos It¡¯s indeed more than I thought. It won¡¯t be long before the Iifu people set out, I have to hurry up, this is a rare opportunity.¡±
Thinking of this, the alien students no longer thought wildly and continued to study diligently the knowledge of the Yifu people, which was equally vast.
