Chapter 2356 Stop Thinking

A yellowed tourist map was taken by Duran to make a plan for the second civilization. In the next three thousand years, he will transform many places. Now he just needs to wait for the population to grow.

When they arrived at the birthplace of ancient Rome, the materials were hundreds of times more than those on the island, and population explosion was inevitable.

After ensuring the safety of the tribe, Fu Hao and Wu Ding began comprehensive construction, and sacrifice and hunting became the main activities of the tribe. A lot of vitality was injected into the tribe, making the primitive people the regional overlords, competing with lions and tigers for hegemony.

Duran has been observing that after the second civilization passed the initial survival crisis, many places began to rush towards the first civilization again. For example, in religion, although Wu Ding and Fu Hao did not move the "Emperor" god of the Shang Dynasty, the primitive people would create their own gods.

Human beings are small, and they long for a great power to protect themselves and protect themselves when they are in danger. And they deified disasters such as storms, lightning, diseases, and fires that directly devour human lives, hoping to exchange sacrifices for peaceful coexistence between themselves and these terrible gods.

Without scientific support, humans will spontaneously create gods.

And the first god created was basically the sky god, and then the sky god gave birth to other gods. The mainstream mythology system is arranged in this way, which is the simplest mythology view.

Should the second mythology also play religion? Religion gives primitive people psychological comfort and is the energy that supports primitive people and nature in the spiritual level. If not, there must be a substitute.

"People are really strange. An ordinary thing is repeated countless times, but once one day you think about why you do it, you will fall into infinite confusion." Du Lan found Fu Hao and Wu Ding: "What do you think?"

"You can directly delete the doubts of human beings." Fu Hao said very straightforwardly. She thought Du Lan could do it completely.

Wu Ding said: "Asking why is human nature, and it is also the difference between humans and animals."

Confucius talked about benevolence. When the Hundred Schools of Thought were contending, he was also asked why by his opponents, and then Mencius came out to patch up Confucianism, so it was the way of Confucius and Mencius. What Confucius proposed was an experience, not a theory. Therefore, in an era of progress with hundreds of schools of thought contending and various theories attacking each other, this experience will naturally be questioned. Why do we need benevolence? Why do we need to follow etiquette? If we cannot answer these questions, people will not be able to accept Confucianism.

Mencius solved the problem of why we need benevolence. He proposed that benevolence is because people naturally have compassion, shame, right and wrong, and resignation. Therefore, benevolence is a natural attribute of everyone, and what they need to do is to discover benevolence, not to create it. And he also proposed how to discover benevolence, which is to go back to the past and learn from the ancients.

Faced with so many incredible and incomprehensible things in nature, primitive people would also ask why, why thunder and rain, why birth, aging, illness and death, at this time someone needs to come out to answer, and the answer obtained at the level of primitive people is "God".

God is the answer to why, although it is not a standard answer, and it is not even a reference answer, it can indeed make people calm.

"Besides religion, what else can make them feel at ease?" Duran asked.

Wu Ding and Fu Hao looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally Wu Ding answered: "Philosophy can satisfy the wise. Entertainment can satisfy ordinary people."

"Not bad, not bad. In the final analysis, it is to guide people's thinking. Let their thinking think that it is meaningful when it is in motion. Thinking is like a machine that never stops, but this machine has no products to produce, so it keeps running idle. So in order to make the operation meaningful, religion, philosophy, entertainment and other ideological products are produced in the machine." "So think about it the other way around. If this machine stops, there will be no need for ideological products."

Hiss! The couple looked shocked. As long as people are alive, the thinking machine will not stop, unless people die, that would be too terrible. Does Duran want to turn primitive people into living dead?

"Don't be afraid. After all, I am not a demon." Duran laughed: "If you stop thinking, you don't need to think about why, and many problems will be solved." "And I won't force them. As long as I package the idea of ​​stopping thinking, they will flock to it." "You know that three people make a tiger, religious miracles are basically the same thing, so as long as someone thinks that stopping thinking is a perfect state and keeps promoting it, soon all primitive people will pursue this state."

"What's the difference between stopping thinking and those stones?"

"There is no difference. I just want to try to keep human thinking in the Stone Age."

The couple was helpless about Duran's decision, but they didn't know how Duran would make primitive people stop thinking.

In fact, it is very simple. The petrified people around have stopped thinking, and the perfect creature Kaz has also stopped thinking, which shows that stopping thinking is completely possible: "It only takes one gesture. Just make a seal like this, and people can stop thinking."

"Then how to recover?"

"It will recover in twelve hours."

"Do you really think that you can rely on this spontaneous seal to make humans stop thinking?" Fu Hao felt that there would always be primitive people who chose to think, because this is free will.

"That's right. Let me add another condition. If primitive people think for more than twelve hours, they will be petrified. In this way, they should know to combine work and rest." Duran was also ruthless to the second civilization. He had to force and intimidate them to stop thinking about why.

"..." The couple was speechless. Duran was obviously bullying. But in this way, perhaps a different civilization could really be created.

A new civilization without religion, half stone and half creature.

As expected, the gods are all lies. Fu Hao and Wu Ding, the two managers of the revival of the Shang Dynasty, no longer believe in gods. The gods don't care about the good or bad of human beings. They only care about whether they are happy or not.

Fu Hao and Wu Ding both think that the Internationale is right. Without the gods and emperors, there is no savior. Only human beings can save mankind.

In order to prevent the birth of the second civilization and follow the old path of the first civilization, Duran also struck hard and taught the primitive people to stop thinking and wait to avoid the development of religion and philosophy.

Without these ideological products, will humans degenerate into beasts? What changes will their behavior bring to the world? What direction will the second generation of civilization go? Suspense is endless.

Fu Hao and Wu Ding saw Duran saying to an empty place: "To know what will happen next, please see the next chapter."

"..." They all thought Duran was crazy. In fact, Duran was communicating with his family across the universe. He knew that his family was watching his performance at home. He just saw the camera position of the dimensional TV. But Wu Ding and Fu Hao did not understand. In their opinion, Duran was completely indescribable and incomprehensible. They even suspected that Duran was the mastermind behind the petrified first generation of civilization, but unfortunately there was no evidence.

But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Fu Hao and Wu Ding could only obey Duran's arrangements and go crazy with Duran.
