4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chapter 648: Memories in the Dream
There is a green earth, a vast ocean, and ... a map.
A huge map obscured the sky. Lin was observing the changes above. I saw that except for a green mark in the center of the map, everything else was white.
The white symbolizes the area covered by the cold, so there has been no change for many years. If the map is zoomed in, Lin can see the dinosaur continent in the distance and the ocean between the two continents.
This world has been completely frozen into a piece of ice.
Thinking, Lin closed the map, and then looked at the land below. At higher places, the land seemed to be a whole piece, but if you were close, you could see that the land was divided into many areas.
In each area, there are a large number of vines that grow together and form square green houses.
As long as the doors of these houses are opened, some scenes can be seen in the houses made of vines.
The scenes inside are ever-changing, with dinosaurs, landscapes, or other creatures, and there is a skeletal or emerald dragon in each area. They are opening these vine houses one by one in order.
After seeing the scene inside, they are sometimes sad and sometimes happy. The emotions of these dragons and the scene inside generally change constantly ...
Actually these are their memories.
This is a special dream that Lin recently came up with. When the skeletal or emerald dragon is old, they can choose to come to this special area when they enter the dream, because Lin found that those old dragons like to remember the past. Things, always say what happened when I was young, whether it is happiness or pain, I like to mention it.
So Lin allowed them to see the past in their dreams. Each house made of vines represents their age. From the initial life to the present, they can see their own experience completely.
This has caused many dragons to immerse themselves in the memories of their past. Some of them look at the previous things in the room at a glance. However, because dreams are time-limited, they will not stay here. Too long.
But all these are precious things for these dragons, whether they are skeletal dragons or emerald dragons, they believe that they ca n’t take anything away after death, but the memory is kept until they are reborn as eggs. Written,
While watching their own experiences, Lin was watching the brains of these dragons ...
Every time these dragons see some memories that can cause them a certain emotion, the activities of their memory areas will be particularly active. Observing these areas, Lin can see the changes in various material information.
Studying this may realize the previous plan.
... Is it really possible?
What Lin wants to do is to put the Skeleton into the "Pompon Realm", which is still true after it dies, but all must have a premise that the "soul" they think is true.
Now Lin believes that if there is a soul, then this situation should be that the brainwave can still be maintained without the body itself. This brainwave has the ability of ordinary biological thought ...
But this kind of thing seems unlikely, because biological thoughts are mainly maintained by brain cell activity and a large amount of secretions inside. Brain waves are just one of the things produced by brain cell activity.
Just like biological blood, living things depend on blood, but blood cannot appear alone, and brain waves should also be the same. Individual brain waves cannot form thoughts.
But Lin will never deny a thing completely without experimenting.
So ... how do you try it?Extract brainwaves alone?
Skeletons do not have a structure to specifically release brainwaves, and Lynn does not know what kind of brainwaves are the brainwaves of the soul.
This is a very complicated problem, so let's do an experiment first to see if they have souls.
Now, Lin is watching a skeleton dragon. This skeleton dragon is quietly standing in front of a vine house, looking at the scenery inside, its thoughts are constantly changing ...
The skeletal dragon is almost approaching death. It looks at the things it cares about before. The contents of the house show that they accidentally caught a dinosaur 'trap' when they were hunting, and then the whole team was wiped out.
It seemed to care very much about this matter, and after that, the dragons also adapted this matter into a story to teach future generations.
Although skeletal dragons do not have the concept of deception for their kind, they are still very familiar with "fraud". Even if the kind will not deceive themselves, other creatures in the jungle will, some smarter dinosaurs will set traps, even even Plants will cheat.
In this environment, they must be very careful, but the skeletal dragons never thought to imitate these deceptions to be used on the same kind, which feels very good.
For Bai Miao Long, this is difficult to achieve.
Lin chose some peaceful white skeleton dragons to an island before. Although the world is now frozen, Lin also built a space like a canyon here. Although they can unite and live together peacefully, Lin found After they are born, there are problems with the offspring that appear, and some cubs will start to harm the same kind when they are very young.
It seems that it is necessary to continuously allow a group of peaceful individuals to breed continuously for many generations in order to improve, and it is better to pick out individuals who will be hostile to the same kind.
Because they are the last white skeleton dragons, they should not be like before ...
When Lin was thinking, the old skeletal dragon below also began to become weaker and weaker, and death was very close to it. If he looked at the map, his organs slowly stopped functioning.
Lin ’s map in the dream can see not only the two continents, but also some very small environments, such as the changes in the body of this skeletal dragon. Lin can see that every organ in its body has begun to turn red.
The white in the map means the change of brain waves, which was originally extended to the nerve lines of the whole body, and now it is slowly shrinking and retreating to the position of the head.
If there is a soul, it may be seen here. There are indeed some strange glowing phenomena similar to brain waves in the cemetery, but I do n’t know whether it has anything to do with this. If it does, Lin should be able to see the white area inside will be slow Slowly get rid of the skeletal dragon's body, and then move outside.
Even a small amount of Lin can see it.
but……
Lin found that the white area in the skeletal dragon's brain was slowly disappearing. This process was very slow, but she didn't see any white trying to escape ...
At the end, there was only a little left in the white part, which was scattered around the brain, and then little by little ... disappeared ...
And this skeletal dragon in the dream, its figure also faded and disappeared just like its brain waves.
Lin changed the map to the other side, showing the appearance of the skeletal dragon. Indeed, no brain waves flew out of the body of the skeletal dragon. Lin used the dream brain to detect the brain waves. You can see a lot of light, but there is a lot of light around, and no light flew out of it.
However, maybe it is an individual problem?After all, the amount of light that Lin saw in the cemetery was not equal to that of the corpse, and there was usually a big gap.
Lin intends to try again, this time try the Emerald Dragon.
Most of the young dragons that have survived are now very old, so Lin has a lot of "test articles", and if some members continue to die, it will also help the environmental cycle here.
But recently, the Emerald Dragon seems to want to use a kind of stone called a "coffin" to hold the body instead of simply burying it, but it can't be broken down quickly because of it, so it was blocked.
Lin soon discovered an emerald dragon that was very old and immersed in the memories. They can now enter the dream. Although Susumi did not promote anything about pompon, it built some statues in the palace. This made the Jade Dragons speculate, and some Jade Dragons also began to worship the pompon, as did the descendants of Susumi and Mukla.
They call the descendants of the king princes, but both males and females call this.
Lin also tried to let the gnome into a dream, but they didn't seem to be particularly interested.
Now, the old Emerald Dragon that Lin looked at is not looking at the memories of the past, but the various things that have recently lived in the canyon, and its life is slowly losing ...
Lin, just like before, watched her life continue until she stopped activity, the brain wave slowly disappeared, no brain wave came out of the brain, no phenomenon like the soul ...
It seems that this dragon will not work.
Then Lin continued to observe the changes of some skeletal dragons and emerald dragons in the vicinity. Most of them were the same, and the brain wave did not escape from the body.
But Lin still saw some brain waves of the dragon break away from the body, but not as a whole piece as the skeletal dragons imagined and still maintained the shape of her life ... Lin saw that some brain waves scattered out , And only a very small amount, quickly disappeared in the air.
This does not look like a soul ...
So Lin still has to experiment with the next method, which is to extract the brain wave of a dragon completely.
Now these dragons seem to have come to the dream, but all of them are presented by their own brains. What the dream brains do is just input the dream world created by themselves into their brains, and their brains read this information and Presented.
What happens if their brain waves are forcibly drawn out of the brain?
The soul does not know. The only thing Lyn can confirm is that if it is unsuccessful, the creature withdrawing the brain wave will definitely die.
