Chapter 157: Aging and Death

Orla Freeman's hermitage is not rich either. Xiangshan only added some equipment, and there will be no resources to make new vehicles in a short period of time.

Xiangshan's destroyed vehicle cannot be replenished in a short period of time.

Xiangshan had to stuff Penicut into the independent escape cabin again, and then stuff it into the whale's mouth.

This time, traveling with Xiang Shan, there was also a big whale named "Hopdman".

Hohopodman is a gray whale. If nothing else, it should be the last gray whale in the world. In two hundred years, she, her mother, and her grandmother, this family, have relied on cloning technology to replace three generations.

She was born from the womb of another female right whale. Her mother had also given birth to cloned humpback whales. When one of them was left alive, her physical condition suddenly deteriorated, and the other whales would behave in this way.

Forms of fleshy fins of aid.

This is how these remnants of the catastrophe survive from generation to generation.

Haupderman's physical body has also passed its prime and begun to decline. In more than ten years, Freeman will find a way to clone her next generation - or herself.

If her body's health deteriorates rapidly during these ten years and makes her unfit for reproduction, Freeman will arrange for other young whales to complete the task.

Haupderman also brought several young killer whales. The number of killer whales and several species of dolphins is relatively larger, and there were more surviving individuals two hundred years ago.

Also setting off from the hermitage were the dolphins Kledechi and Sikasi. These two dolphins are the best dolphin leaders in the colony.

Kledic can skillfully arrange various tasks and deal with various situations. In the past ten years, Kledic has performed extremely well. Freeman even described him as being better than many in completing tasks efficiently.

Humanity.

Sicassi is Kledechi's best friend.

Hmm, but Xiangshan also heard another version of the story. It is said that Sikasi once cried like a dolphin and asked Kledich to take her with him. Sikasi was Panic's most popular among the dolphins.

Good friend. The loyal dolphin loves that human cub.

In addition to the above members, Xiangshan also added a new partner.

The warrior who never said his name.

The knight who originally belonged to the White Ship Yi Cong.

Xiang Shan looked at the guy who was using a fish-shaped prosthetic body to swim quickly in the ocean currents with great interest, and said, "Brother, do you plan to come out again now and do chivalry?"

The man was silent for a moment, and then said: "To be honest, I haven't thought about it yet."

"Um?"

"When I stayed at first, I thought I was tired from playing and wanted to take a break. However, I must have been resting for a hundred years... After a hundred years of peaceful life, I seem to have become accustomed to this place."

Xiang Shan nodded: "This is a good place... at least from the perspective of us humans."

In order not to be noticed by the outside world, whales must suppress their voices all their lives and carefully mix their songs into the background noise of the ocean and the earth's crust. However, due to the difference in senses, humans are not aware of this. If Freeman did not remind him

, Xiangshan will also subconsciously forget that this is a group of victims living in silence and fear enjoying themselves - human beings will only instinctively feel that this place is very peaceful.

The warrior sighed: "I admit that I like it here very much. But I think that I will stay here not just because I like it here... At the beginning, I felt tired and at the same time I felt indebted.

I received a huge favor from those dolphins, so at that time I still had the intention to repay the kindness. Then I felt that I really fell in love with this place."

Having said this, the warrior fell silent. Xiang Shan did not ask any further questions. In the silent sea, only the sound of whales swimming was left.

He was still the same warrior. He couldn't help but sigh: "But recently I began to feel that this is simply... I can't do it anymore. I'm old."

"It shouldn't be referring to the natural life span," Xiang Shan said, looking at the warrior.

The warrior shook his head: "Of course not. I have used Danenase many times. From a cellular level, my brain is still very young. But... my heart, or my soul, may have become old.

.”

"I was born in the era of the Fourth Martial God. For the sake of chivalry, I have been fighting for sixty years. During these sixty years, I have been constantly tempering myself and devoting myself to fighting. Many people in the old era said why

They have worked hard and struggled all their lives for something. However, excluding their childhood and the time of studying, the life they really devoted themselves to one thing may not be sixty years. The life span of Homo sapiens is too short...

No, it’s because our lifespan is too long.”

Xiang Shan nodded.

——Every time you are reborn, you reset your mentality! So you don’t understand those of us who have been living until now! Those of us who have failed many times!

The words Kanhara Yanye said flashed through his consciousness again.

I'm afraid this is not because of aging, but because of "frustration".

Aging cannot take away the passion in human hearts. Xiangshan heard that in Japan in the past, there was a world-renowned painter. He was the most famous artist of that era, and his works even influenced many celebrities in Europe. He declared that he was "

He was not truly born until he was fifty years old." Even at the last moment of his life, the painter was lamenting, "If I were allowed to live ten more years... or even five years, I would definitely become a real painter."

Xiangshan has always felt that what takes away human energy is not aging, but frustration. "My life is only so long, and my victory conditions will go downhill after a certain point. This is insurmountable."

"Obstacle" itself is the biggest failure that mankind must face.

If the human life span limit is lifted correctly, humans will naturally adapt to it.

Maybe he thought too simply.

Although humans have mastered the technology of heaven and earth, the human mind is still similar to that of the hunter-gatherers on the African land a hundred thousand years ago.

Perhaps the despair and frustration caused by "death" can be alleviated, and the physiological aging can be reversed, but the human mind has not been completely changed after all.

The basic configuration of human beings only requires humans to live thirty or forty years to complete the task of reproduction. All human configurations, such as physical structure and mind, exist for this purpose.

But human technology allows humans to live to be three to four hundred years old.

Xiang Shan said: "I hope you can find the answer you want to find, my friend who doesn't know the name."
