A bulging brown paper bag lay quietly in the empty safe.

Shen opened the paper bag vaguely, and found that what was inside was a stack of papers from different sources.

There are handwritten notes, white papers full of graffiti, various newspaper clippings, papers torn from academic journals, torn pages of books...

At first glance, this looks like a study group collecting data for their own practical research topic.

What is even more strange is the content of these materials.

"The origin and root cause of the first industrial revolution," Yan Zhaoshu read, "A brief talk about the inhibitory effect of Confucianism on Chinese scientific thought. This book is...Needham's problem? Hmm..."

The above is quite normal, in addition, there are "the only family that has stood for thousands of years - the Kong family", "the slaves with three surnames, both sides, the most shameless family in Chinese history - the Kong family", "the first family in the Republic of China" The Mystery of Family Suicide"...

There are also many materials on Western history and occultism, such as "Secret Organizations of the Holy See in the Middle Ages", "Theology and Science", "On the Existence of Vampires", "Tracing the Origin of World Myths"...etc.

Yan Zhao flipped through the book, and the content behind it became more and more unconstrained. What "transhumanism" or "extreme environmentalism" is simply irrelevant.

He couldn't imagine why Demier hid these things in such a deep place.

"There is a notebook." Shen Yuyan took out a notebook from the kraft paper bag.

It is the simplest and plainest thread-bound book, and the cover has faded a bit.

After opening it, there are some scribbles inside. If you look carefully for clues, you can find some logic.

"She is studying Needham's problem." Shen Yonghui said.

"What's the Needham question?"

Shen Yonghui frowned, "It means that ancient China made outstanding achievements in science and technology, but why did the modern scientific and industrial revolution happen in the West instead of China."

If it wasn't for the smell of spiders around him, Yan Zhaozhu would have thought that he was back in a high school history class at this moment.

"Then has she come to a conclusion?"

"Academia has come to a conclusion." Shen turned through a few pages of notes in a vague way, and saw what Demier had written on it—the answer of experts and scholars to this question.

[First, Confucianism is flourishing, and rulers use Confucianism to carry out ideological dictatorship.Those who are good at learning (arts) will become officials. The whole people advocate arts, but the level of mathematics and science is backward.Second, under the influence of Confucianism and the small-scale peasant economy, experience and pragmatism are rampant, and there is no desire to pursue truth in thought.Focus on practicality, not theory.third……】

[In short, science did not originate from China, and the fundamental reason is at the ideological level. 】

This passage is not Demier's opinion, but an excerpt.

The reason why she knew this was an excerpt was because she used a red pen to draw a big cross on this passage.

The bright red color of the fountain pen has condensed into dark red in the precipitation of time.

She wrote two lines below in shocking blood-like handwriting.

The first line: [Manipulated. 】

The second line: [Confucianism, Confucian family, Mu, Bai. 】

It took a few seconds for Yan Zhaozhu to realize what these two lines actually meant.

shudder.

There is no adjective that can describe this unprecedented sense of absurdity.

He said slowly: "What does this mean? She is saying that China's technological development is being..."

Was it artificially blocked?

The handwriting turned another page, and it was still blood red.

[Confucius inherited the legacy of his ancestors and took a milestone step on the road of suppressing science. 】

[He proposed Confucianism, using the doctrine of the mean, conservatism, and pragmatism to suppress the spirit of mathematics and science. 】

[In order for Confucianism to be adopted by the rulers and carried forward, he deliberately incorporated ideas such as morality and ethics into it.These things, which are regarded as literature by today's people, were originally, in fact, only functional content. 】

[Confucianism naturally occupies a dominant position. Its core idea, which seems to be moral ethics, actually suppresses science. 】

[The descendants of the Kong family are thus highly respected and become the first family, possessing the power to influence the ruler.They continued to codify Confucianism so that it always conformed to the ultimate purpose of suppressing scientific thought. 】

[They also use political measures to achieve this goal.Moreover, he commanded the Guwu Bai family, which was attached to the Kong family at that time, to assassinate many scientists. 】

[During the change of dynasties time after time, the Confucian family occupied the high ground of Confucianism, the three caves of cunning rabbits, both ways, and always surrendered in accordance with the times, so it became the only family that survived. 】

[They don't hesitate to bear the infamy of the wall, the slaves of the three surnames, and the first traitor, but they also want to survive and desperately suppress the rise of science, but what is this for?What are they drawing? 】

[The Confucian family gradually split. During the Ming Dynasty, the branch that inherited the legacy of the ancestors was completely separated, changed its name and surname, and became the later, the Mu family. 】

[The responsibility of the Confucian family to suppress science will continue to be borne by the Mu family.The Guwu Bai family, who had been following the Kong family, turned to follow the Mu family. 】

[They were very successful and proposed a closed-door policy, which affected the entire Qing government. 】

[The contrast is the failure of foreign repressive forces.The Holy See has failed, pure force organizations have failed, forces suppressing science all over the world—why are there such idiot forces all over the world? ——all failed. 】

[A question that has been debated in recent years: How did the technological explosion in modern times come about?Why has science, which human beings failed to develop for thousands of years, achieved rapid development in modern times in just a few hundred years? 】

[The answers are varied, but the truth lies in the most unbelievable place: the boulder that suppressed science broke apart.So like a spring, with a boom, modern science exploded. 】

[It was also at this time that foreign colonial powers, relying on advanced science and technology, opened the door to China. 】

【Therefore—the living beings weep, and the land perishes! 】

[The Mu family, it's hard to bear the burden.I am ashamed of the prosperous empire that once came from all nations, ashamed of the land that gave birth and nurtured under my feet, and ashamed of the people who are crying and suffering everywhere!If you can't repay it in one death, the whole family commits suicide. 】

[Leave only one bloodline, so that when the end of the world comes in the future, it can contribute to the survival of mankind. 】

Yan Zhaozhu reached out and pressed the page, "Wait—"

Shen Yonghui also realized: "The end of the world! They already knew that the end of the world will come."

This page of notes ends here.

Yan Zhaozhu hesitated for a moment before slowly opening the next page.

The first line of this page is: [According to Mu Zhengping, many of the ancestors' legacy books have been lost, and they don't know much about the truth. The only thing they know is:]

In the next sentence, a new line was deliberately opened: [If technology is not restrained and allowed to develop, then, at a certain stage of development, the end of the world will come. 】

[The will of the ancestors?What kind of ancestors would have such a will to inherit to them? 】

[Not only in China, but all over the world, such wills have been passed down from generation to generation.Tracing back from the pre-Qin period, all the way back to the mythological period, the source cannot be found. 】

【Mu Zhengping asked a creepy question. 】

[He said, how did the myths and legends around the world come into being? 】

The content of this page ends here.There are only some messy graffiti left, and large areas of blank space.

On the next page, Demier scribbled some questions.

[Who, for what purpose, entrusted the task of suppressing science to ancient people from all over the world thousands of years ago? 】

[The forces that suppress science all over the world have some powers that cannot be naturally evolved.For example, ancient Chinese martial arts, Western vampires, Holy See knights, etc. How did these powers come from? 】

[These people all have genetic shields, either incomplete or complete, and they are congenitally inherited.How did their genetic shield come from? 】

Shen Yonghui didn't quite understand the third question, Yan Zhaozhu didn't explain it to him, and their eyes were fixed on the next line together.

[Mu Zhengping said that the distribution map of prehistoric relics in the Mu family's collection is the most puzzling.Maybe, I need to see for myself what this so-called relic is. 】

Shen Yonghui said: "The ruins?"

He immediately thought of the adventure of falling into the crack and coming out of the bottom of the sea.

Yan Zhaozhu looked around, everyone else had already left the underground vault, and now, there were only the two of them here.

He considered for a moment, did not hide anything, and told Shen Yonghui everything about the ruins.

He even told him about Yan Chengzhou and Bai Lin's "Crystal Core Revolution" concept.

Regarding the relics and prehistoric civilization, Yan Zhaozhuo has already restored a general idea, but he still feels that he has overlooked something, a very critical issue.

After hearing this, Shen Yonghui was not surprised, but frowned.

"Do you not regard zombies as enemies, but as energy sources?"

He said, "This idea is very bold. If it can be realized, the earth will usher in earth-shaking changes. Maybe the end of the world is not a purely bad thing."

"So, you agree with this point of view?" Yan Zhaozhu asked.

"No." Shen Yonghui shook his head.

Then he paused, a little unsure.

"Zombies, or nuclear energy, is it a renewable energy source?"

Yan Zhao was stunned.

In just one hour, he had input too many messages into his brain.

To the point that, for a while, he couldn't deal with what Shen Yonghui said.

"What's wrong?" Shen Yong looked at him dimly and said, "Let's go, there is nothing behind the notes."

He took Yan Zhaozhu out and stuffed him into the car.

Yan Zhaozhuo didn't wake up until the car was driving and the cold wind was blowing through the window.

Looking at the scenery outside, the sky is blue and clear, clear and lofty, with wispy clouds, as if they were also blown by the cool breeze, and followed them playfully.

After the end of the world, I don't know how many people fell in love with the action of looking up at the sky.When you're in a world where everything is falling apart and only the sky is getting more beautiful, you can't help but appreciate the sky too.

As for Yan Zhaozhuo, for the first time, he saw the chilling danger from the beautiful sky above his head.

Are zombies a renewable energy source?

Shen Yonghui doesn't know the answer to this question, and everyone in the world doesn't know it, only Yan Zhaozhuo knows it.

No.

Because no matter how long it takes, as long as the person is still alive, the genetic shield will always be formed.

If the crystal nucleus technology is really developed, the non-renewable zombie crystal nucleus is simply not enough to meet the needs of human beings.

At that time, where will the human beings who have become accustomed to crystal nucleus technology extend their black hands?

Mutated creatures?Or... a supernatural being?

What is even more deadly is: the upgrade of mutated creatures relies heavily on the absorption of crystal nuclei.Their automatic upgrades are much slower than zombies.

This means that all the mutated creatures on the earth - even including the supernatural beings - can't support it at all, and the crystal nucleus of the entire earth is consumed.

Ten years or a hundred years, it is still possible, but more than a thousand years, it will definitely fail.

At that time, where can human beings stretch their hands?

Crystal core technology is bound to perish.

But what about the so-called prehistoric civilization?How did they do it, gnawing their nests all over the earth?
