Chapter 258 State Funeral

Since it was confirmed that the metal nut was indeed not human, in addition to excitement and shock, people also had a kind of eagerness to try.

There was no point in discussing it like this. People had to explore the ground again to find out the complete truth!

"Then, this meeting ends here..."

Yu Yifeng finally made the decision.

He also made a brief summary at the end, pointing out the current work goals of people. "The preliminary translation work can start first. The video in our hands has recorded a lot of indigenous people's language and related actions, and we can roughly guess some meanings..."

"In this way, as long as there is some translation of the Tu language, there will be fewer communication barriers."

Hearing this, an information science expert quickly promised.

"That's no problem."

Since they had dealt with the Green Light Civilization, they began to devote themselves to studying the problem of language translation. These indigenous languages ​​do not seem to be very complicated, and they should be able to be solved quickly... Although the information in them is not complete, it is better to translate a little bit.

Yu Yifeng nodded and continued, "The screening of explorers will also begin immediately, including sociologists, linguists, soldiers, reporters, etc. After the state funeral ceremony, we will set off immediately! I will be responsible for this part of the work."

"Dismissed!"

Of course, the list of explorers must include himself.

How could Yu Yifeng be absent from such an expedition?

Even if someone objects, they can use the reason that "the danger can be controlled" to fight back...

At present, the atmosphere of the entire civilization is still quite heavy. People are all immersed in a sad atmosphere.

TV and newspapers are constantly broadcasting the deeds and contributions of the seven deceased in their lifetime to commemorate their contributions to the new human civilization.

Their death is entirely due to the lack of experience of the entire civilization...

Three days later, a grand state funeral ceremony was held in Area C3 on the surface of Nix Star.

An unmanned car brought seven coffins, and the transport robot lined them up in a row. Three of them were cenotaphs.

The state funeral ceremony for the seven dead is the most important thing at this stage. Please...

"Fire a gun! Silence! Salute!"

The atmosphere on the Noah was sad. Yu Yifeng also stood aside with a solemn face and saluted.

Seven bodies, lying alone in the coffins, no longer have body temperature, and three of them are cenotaphs.

The blazing fire burned and devoured them...

There will be no more of them in this world.

Death is eternal death, and it is impossible to resurrect again.

Everyone has only one life. According to existing scientific theories, it is impossible to turn back time.

People really only have this one time, and after this time, they will turn into soil.

Although the tortoise is long-lived, it still has its end. The viper rides on the mist, and eventually turns into dust. With people's current philosophical level, before figuring out the meaning of life, death is still the greatest fear of mankind...

Everyone around was bowing their heads in silence, and all the soldiers on the scene sent them off with military salutes. The ordinary people on the Noah also looked serious, gathering in front of the new government square and watching the big screen.

They were filled with sadness, some saluted, and some bowed their heads in silence.

The relatives of several of the dead were still crying softly, and gradually they could no longer hold back and cried like a tearful man...

"The ceremony is over!"

With the loud roar of the master of ceremonies, all the soldiers put down their salutes.

But no one moved or talked afterwards.

They stood in the thick darkness of Nix Star, with deep and sad eyes, watching the fire slowly go out...

The robots stepped forward, completely collected the remaining ashes, and buried them deep underground...

A huge bronze monument was erected, on which the names of the seven dead were completely engraved.

Then, the entire state funeral ceremony was completed, the soldiers left one by one, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Everyone had their own thoughts, but they all had another feeling: humans are not enough, far from enough!

The vast and ruthless universe has taught humans another lesson. Many seemingly commonplace safety is actually not safe!

However... Such lessons are all paid for with human lives!

Humans are really naive. They have only grown from a one-month-old baby to a one-year-old baby...

Humans are still too weak to conquer a planet easily. We really can't be careless or careless.

Yu Yifeng recovered from his heavy heart and sighed slightly.

The road ahead is long and far away. Sometimes it seems that there is really no end.

The whole ceremony was so solemn. He didn't speak, and no leader, including him, spoke...

These people are dead. Their achievements have been broadcast for several days. Everyone understands. So there is no need to repeat it again. It will seem procrastinating.

"The geological activities on Nix are too frequent, and coupled with a lot of oxygen corrosion, this bronze monument can only stand for ten thousand years at most... too little! Moreover, human memory is too short. The heroes who fought against the Martian virus are rarely talked about now, right? Humans are a kind of forgetful creatures."

"We should set up a hero memorial on Noah! All the names and deeds of the dead should be recorded...including the heroes who fell on Mars."

"We should remember them forever and let the entire new human civilization remember them!"

Yu Yifeng walked and called Mr. Sean, the Minister of Propaganda, and then kept talking on the phone.

These dead people should not be forgotten, they are the backbone of civilization!

"We should also add this content to the primary education in elementary schools. Let our descendants know that it is because of their efforts and sacrifices that the new human civilization will become stronger and more mature, and our civilization will continue!"

This kind of education work related to the next generation must be very cautious.

But Yu Yifeng believes that such hero education is still needed and even necessary.

The 50,000 people of the first generation of Noah are the elite among the elites, carefully selected from the seven billion people on the earth. Each of them is a smart person with great potential and good ideas.

However, the children born from two smart people are not necessarily smart. Their offspring may be very mediocre. In terms of IQ, they are likely to be inferior to their parents. Because creating brilliance is a low-probability event...

However, people can be mediocre, but their thinking patterns must be advanced!

For the entire civilization, a diligent and selfless ordinary person is far more useful than a lazy and selfish genius.

How to cultivate the thinking of the next generation?

A person is born as a blank sheet of paper, with only some instincts on it, and most of it depends on acquired education!

During this period of time, Yu Yifeng began to gradually understand: why the thinking pattern is so important in the spiritual level report given by the alien memory "Black"...

The scoring weight occupied by the thinking pattern is absolutely large.

So, the upper class of civilization must focus on education and shape the new human civilization to be stronger!

We must take advantage of this great opportunity to remove the previous bad habits!

Now the oldest child in Noah has entered elementary school. At present, there are not many external temptations and too many entertainment facilities. The whole learning atmosphere is still relatively good.

The teachers have been repeating how weak humans are, how great the pressure of survival is, and even the human mother planet has been destroyed...

This is the truth.

These children have never seen blue sky and white clouds, nor have they seen mountains and seas. They are very yearning for the descriptions of adults, but they can only see them in photos.

Only science can make humans strong and allow humans to witness blue sky and white clouds again!

They are extremely admiring of science, and more than 80% of children want to become scientists! Instead of the previous career that can make money, it is the best career.

The cold universe... Only by constantly developing science and technology, and solidarity and mutual assistance within civilization, can people survive!

Now, after the first few years of education, the seed of yearning for science has been planted... How to cultivate it into a towering tree requires more education and cultivation.

So, the whole society is still relatively simple, without so many intrigues, and there are not too many conflicts of interest. The overall educational environment is very good.

In the future... what will these children be cultivated into?

Yu Yifeng is still very much looking forward to this.

I don't expect them to become geniuses, but I hope they will become useful people for civilization... Of course, it would be better if there were a few geniuses!
