Chapter 363

After 44 years of interstellar navigation, mankind finally reached the destination of this station, Riley.

On this planet, theocracy and kingship have been firmly tied together for millions of years. Due to religious conflicts, historical hatred, wars between kingdoms break out almost every few years. Soldiers fight fiercely and blood flows into a river!

For the Laili civilization without the birth of science and technology, naturally there is no individual who can see the arrival of the Kunlun fleet with the naked eye. At most, he can barely see the dim ion engine, and then mistake it for a small star.

In this planetary system, the central main star is a yellow dwarf about 5.4 billion years old, with a luminous intensity of 92% of the sun, which is very suitable for the birth of life.

Riley is located in the habitable zone of the planetary system, with a lot of water resources, light green land, yellow desert, snow capped plateau, and the north and south poles with thick ice

the only difference is that the atmosphere is slightly thicker, about 123% of the earth's, while the oxygen content is only 7.2%

7.2% oxygen content, can barely support the aerobic respiration of life, but there is no way to large-scale combustion. Except for a few materials with high reducibility, such as white phosphorus, which can burn in this low oxygen environment, wood fiber is difficult to ignite.

That is to say, for this civilization, fire is a very rare thing, but it is not completely absent. Naturally, no real science and technology has been developed. Even when it reached the bronze age, it can only be said that it was so careless.

For the sake of conservatism, human beings have sent some probes to this planet in advance. Even if the other side is just a low-level civilization, it is necessary to be cautious

These probes soon sent back general information about the planet.

A geographer explained on the stage that " The plants here can use carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. As for why the oxygen content of this planet is so low, it is an unsolved mystery for us at present, which may be related to the changes of the environment and the composition of the whole planet. "

"However, we can deduce to a certain extent according to the earth's 4.6 billion years of evolution."

"According to the evolution law of the earth, the period of the highest oxygen content in the earth's atmosphere was from the end of the Carboniferous to the beginning of the Permian, when the oxygen concentration reached 35%. At this time, dinosaurs did not appear On the contrary, the ancestors of dinosaurs, the main dinosaurs, rose from the Permian mass extinction when oxygen content dropped to 12%

"As a result, in the Triassic, the oxygen content increased again, so dinosaurs evolved to be bigger and bigger."

"So, according to the evolution law of the earth, if the oxygen content drops to 7.2%, there is no problem. We are very interested in the evolution of these intelligent lives I guess they're not going to be very big

"Sir, if possible, I would like to apply for the collection of biological specimens of this planet."

"Mr. captain, I apply to investigate the geographical environment and human culture of this planet to provide real samples for creating a virtual world."

During this landing meeting, many scientists presented the long prepared motion to the public.

At present, the planet that people choose to mine directly is a naked, airless planet located in the periphery of the planetary system. After all, the other party is an intelligent civilization. There must be necessary (respect) and caution. But the main thing is that this kind of airless planet is the easiest to develop and can avoid microbial pollution, that's all.

However, since there is no great threat to this civilization, problems such as scientific research are all trivial matters.

Zhang Yuan and others have the most divergent views on how to treat this kind of low-level civilization which has fallen into the trap of mediocrity?

Zhang Yuan said solemnly on the stage: "ladies and gentlemen, don't take it for granted that a civilization lower than ours can be manipulated and experimented with people with a sense of superiority. We must maintain the moral order of civilization itself and the superficial justice... "

“…… Notice that justice is not for other civilizations, but for our own citizens. "

"All our actions will become history and influence our ideology in the future."

Zhang Yuan stood on the stage and said what seemed to be a bit of "hypocrisy".

What do you mean?

Human itself is a very contradictory creature. For example, cats and dogs will be treated as living objects by human beings to conduct a series of experiments in the biological laboratory. But it does not affect some people to pet cats and dogs, and produce animal protection association.

But will the society protest against serious scientific experiments? Maybe, but it really happens, and few people support it.

Kunlun Mountain has a population of 8 million, and the people have developed their wisdom. Under the influence of the environment, the vast majority of the people are still relatively benevolent.

They allow a certain degree of biological science research, but they are averse to indiscriminate slaughter.This is the so-called "superficial justice".

This kind of superficial justice is necessary for a civilization. Because we all feel that we are just, not evil, to gain inner peace.

Human beings themselves are hypocritical creatures. If all people's actions reveal the evil of human nature, then the whole civilization will soon collapse, even if it does not collapse, it will affect the cohesion of the whole civilization. On the contrary, standing at the commanding height of morality can make you feel at ease.

"Therefore, as far as diplomacy with lower levels is concerned, we must have our own rules of conduct, not the East and the West. What the people should be taught is not justice itself, but a way of dealing with the whole civilization. "

Of course, this kind of diplomatic code of conduct is not fixed. It can be very flexible, suit measures to local conditions and seek truth from facts. But on the whole, we should give the people a sense of sureness and let them naturally think, "Oh, we must be the Party of justice! We are a peace loving and friendly human civilization

"We don't bully the weak and we don't commit massacres!"

That's enough.

However, this kind of "civilization and justice" can not be cultivated in one or two days. We must have been exposed to more civilizations and have enough historical precipitation before all the people can develop this kind of mentality and have a strong spirit from the heart.

Li Zhendong clapped his hands secretly. "So it is. In fact, it is with the help of low-level civilization to cultivate a reasonable world outlook and values among interstellar citizens..."

"Only when the majority of the population agree with the values of their own civilization can we go further on the star stage. This is a very reasonable thing in itself. "

Most people understood Zhang Yuan's meaning. Many scientists who submitted the motion also nodded cautiously and agreed with this view.

Zhang Yuan continued: "there are many diplomatic routes for low-level civilization. Here I list three main routes. Once we have made a choice, our own rules of conduct should follow these routes, even if the other party is as weak as an ant, we should treat them equally
