Science and technology have been progressing all the time. Stone knives, stone axes, finding and making use of fire, and even producing cooked food can be seen as the progress of science and technology.
Science and technology is a good thing, it makes human beings out of class, outstanding, and finally above all things, become the number one on this planet.
From a macro perspective, the progress of science and technology is not slow!
How long did it take human beings to become the leader of this planet?
At the same time, the emergence of science and technology has explained some natural phenomena which were regarded as miracles by the ancients. The simplest example is thunder.
Thunder is a natural phenomenon. When it rains, the clouds in the sky are either positive or negative.
When the two kinds of clouds meet, they will emit lightning, and at the same time, they will release a lot of heat, which will heat and expand the surrounding air. The expanded air will push the surrounding air and cause a strong explosive vibration.
This is thunder.
These may not be detailed by every modern person, but what modern people all know is that thunder is a natural phenomenon.
However, the ancients gave more meaning to the weather phenomenon of thunder and more understanding from different angles!
The earliest record of lightning in ancient times is a spherical lightning strike in 1068 BC recorded in Zhouyi, which is also the earliest record of lightning strike in the world.
In ancient times, people connected thunder and lightning with ghosts and gods, and created myths such as thunder god and lightning mother.
It can be seen that the progress of science and technology has not only made human beings stronger, but also gradually explained things that could not be explained by the ancients.
The reason why Zhou qiuchu sighed was that he believed that science and technology could explain all kinds of unnatural phenomena in practice.
What still can't be explained by science and technology is that science and technology are not developed enough. When science and technology are developed to a certain extent, it will be able to explain all kinds of unnatural phenomena in practice that can't be explained now!
Of course, Chen Hui could understand what Zhou qiuchu meant. He patted Zhou qiuchu on the shoulder, sighed and said, "although Cheng Ziyi is a man of practice, he lives in modern society after all. We all know some of the simplest basic knowledge. I don't think the development of science and technology is slow!"
Hearing this, Zhou qiuchu looks at Chen Hui.
"How many species appeared on the earth before human beings appeared?" Chen Hui smiles and says, "how long have these species evolved? However, all of these species have disappeared from the planet without exception. What we can see is the fossils of these species. Through these fossils, we can learn that human beings are not the only species that have dominated the earth. Before human beings, there are other species that have dominated the planet! "
"Even if our ancestors created civilization, which is one of the four ancient civilizations, how long is the recorded history?" Chen Hui continued: "it's only a few thousand years. Through the comparison of a few years ago, we can see at a glance the development speed of science and technology, not only not slow, but also quite fast!"
Zhou qiuchu shook his head helplessly and said nothing.
Chen Hui put this problem on the human species and compared it with the species that once appeared on the earth and dominated the planet. Naturally, the development of human science and technology is quite fast, but it has developed to the current social situation in thousands of years, and everything is the result of the development of science and technology.
However, Zhou qiuchu's original intention is to lament the development of science and technology, which still can not fully explain the various unnatural phenomena of human beings in practice.
Chen Hui was silent for a while at this time, and then continued: "I'm not deliberately magnifying this problem, but the history of human evolution. There are still several questions. First of all, we can't find bones or bone fossils of various historical periods in the process of human evolution!"
"There is also the discovery of iron metal objects in coal, such as nails, steel bars and so on. Before the history of human evolution, were there any other intelligent creatures on the earth?" With these words, Chen Hui looked at Cheng Ziyi and Zhou qiuchu, and said, "zoom in to this level. In view of these questions, as well as the practice world we know at present, there is reason to doubt that before human beings, did human beings dominate the earth in practice?"
Hearing Chen Hui's words, Zhou qiuchu subconsciously glanced at Cheng Ziyi, then frowned.
Looking at Zhou qiuchu, Chen Hui continued: "science and technology are progressing, and the world of practice is declining. Is there any connection between the two? In terms of the knowledge that ordinary people have come into contact with, I mean ordinary people who do not know the existence of the spiritual world have a very clear understanding that human beings are the master of the earth! The rise of one species must be based on the extinction of another. The rapid progress and development of science and technology may be the reason for the decline of the spiritual world! "
"I don't deny that you have a point." When Zhou qiuchu heard Chen Hui's remarks, he was silent for a long time before he said, "but before the practitioners set foot in the world of practice, they were ordinary people! This should show that the root of man in practice lies in ordinary people! "
"You mean now!" Chen Hui said with a smile, "this is the case now. In ancient times thousands of years ago? Even tens of thousands of years ago? Have people in practice ever been ordinary people? No one can come to such a conclusion without evidence! "
"Elder martial brother, if what you said is true, then people in practice and ordinary people will become natural enemies!" Cheng Ziyi said at this time: "it seems that there should not be a situation where ordinary people can set foot on the road of practice!"
Chen Hui spread his hands and stopped talking about this topic, saying: "it's just a casual talk! No one knows what's going on! "
"Say it casually?" Zhou qiuchu frowned and said, "if it's casual, how can you be so logical? I thought you had thought about that for a long time! "
Cheng Ziyi nodded to one side and agreed with Zhou qiuchu. She also thought that Chen Hui must have thought about this for a long time.
"It's really just a slip of the tongue." Chen Hui reluctantly spread his hands and said, "it's because you mentioned the development of science and technology that you have such a little feeling."
"It's a shocking remark!" Zhou qiuchu knows Chen Hui very well. Since he said that, it must be his feelings just now, not his remarks that he has thought for a long time.
"I think so, too!" Cheng Ziyi nodded and said, "it's shocking!"
