Cui Lingfeng was silent, his lips were as solid as the starship's gate facing the vacuum of the universe.
Tang Dingyuan glanced at Li Yao, his eyes became sterner, and his anger slowly built up: "First it was the 'Red Lotus Project', and now there is the 'Rebirth Plan'.
I don't know how many things are going on on this ship. ?”
"a lot of."
Cui Lingfeng said quietly, "You are the captain of the Firefly.
The captain must be fearless, move forward bravely, and ride the wind and waves!
Only the ignorant can be fearless.
You don't need to know everything."
"I want to know."
Tang Dingyuan stared into Cui Lingfeng's eyes and said calmly but firmly, "If you don't say it, let Ding Zhengyang do it."
The gate that sealed countless secrets on Cui Lingfeng's lips trembled slightly for a long time, and finally said: "In the past thousand years, we have encountered countless difficulties, dangers, and critical situations.
We have formulated emergency plans for all situations, the 'Rebirth Plan.'
It is an emergency plan formulated for the most serious, dangerous and deadly 'super crisis' situation."
Tang Dingyuan was slightly startled and said: "I have never heard of a 'special crisis situation'.
'First-level crisis situation' is already the highest level."
Cui Lingfeng smiled: "No, the first level is not the highest, the special level is.
The so-called 'special level crisis' means that the resources on the ship for life support and escape are less than one-fifth of the standard, and the circulation system and artificial greenhouse are seriously damaged.
Destruction, subsequent resources will not be able to return to half of the standard within fifty years, and will even continue to decrease, leading to the collapse of our civilization within fifty years, and a hundred years Complete extinction within the country, oh, this is still an ideal state.
In fact, due to human survival instincts and various crazy actions before death, once everyone knows that we will perish within fifty to a hundred years, then It won't take that long at all, at most five years, the social order will completely collapse.
Within ten years, the fire of civilization as weak as a firefly on this ship will be completely extinguished.
Once the Speaker realizes that this situation has occurred, he has the power and must initiate the 'Rebirth Plan' to quickly, efficiently, and steadily reduce the population on the ship until a balance is reached between the sustainable recovery of population and resources.
Tang Dingyuan's voice began to tremble: "What, how to 'reduce the population'?"
Cui Lingfeng said: "Do you know the ice rain attack that the Firefly suffered seven hundred and twenty-eight years ago?
The ice rain itself was not serious.
It only penetrated the shell of our outer starship, but it carried A strange virus caused a great plague inside the Firefly, reducing our population by 20%."
"Of course I know, it was almost the most difficult and darkest period of the Firefly."
Tang Dingyuan wondered, "But wasn't that plague completely eradicated by us?"
"Yes, the plague was extinguished, but the virus was not completely destroyed."
Cui Lingfeng smiled strangely, "This is really a very perfect virus.
It has many mutations, spreads through the air and spreads quickly.
The symptoms are not obvious, the incubation period is uncertain, and it is extremely deadly once it attacks.
It will automatically find the strongest Hosts are infected preferentially, and when psychic energy is exceeded In a powerful host, the faster the mutation and erosion occur, the more it can offset the host's efforts to use psychic self-treatment.
In other words, this is a virus that treats everyone equally, and neither ordinary people nor cultivators can escape it.
The death rate is almost the same.
Our virologists studied it in depth in the laboratory.
The initial idea was to refine a viral weapon to fight the Empire, but later discovered that it had a fatal weakness that could be easily exploited by a synthetic drug.
Local prevention and treatment, and the materials for synthesizing this drug are produced in every world, and the synthesis method is not too complicated.
In other words, even if a virus weapon is really refined, it will be difficult to cause a serious blow to the empire.
At most, it will only wreak havoc on one or two of their starships for a while, and it will not have much military significance.
But this kind of special medicine... is difficult to refine in large quantities on our ship.
As a result, experts from hundreds of years ago began to refine virus weapons for a new purpose.
The final result was very satisfactory.
It spreads quickly, has hidden symptoms, is highly lethal, and targets both cultivators and ordinary people.
Once passed The air circulation system spreads inside the sealed starship and can quietly and instantly reduce a large population.
The most important thing is that it has a characteristic we call 'half-life'.

As long as it spreads for a few generations, it will automatically annihilate.
Will not continue to spread.
This half-life is controllable and can be long or short.
In other words, this is a 'precision strike' virus weapon.
As long as you control the half-life and know the total number of people available for infection, you can calculate in advance how many people it can kill.
After the death toll reaches the target, it can also It will then be depleted and annihilated without leaving any sequelae.
This virus is named the 'Rebirth Virus'.
It is the key to the Rebirth Plan and may bring... rebirth to the Firefly on the verge of destruction. " Tang Dingyuan couldn't believe his ears at all, and stared at Cui Lingfeng in shock for a long time: "You guys, you have secretly developed a virus weapon, but it is not used to deal with the enemy, but to kill your own people, your own My compatriots, the people you swore to protect!
What’s the difference between you and the immortal cultivators?”
"have."
Cui Lingfeng said calmly, "Suppose you are an immortal cultivator and are responsible for implementing the 'Rebirth Plan'.
Think about it, what exactly will you do?
Of course, combine the cabins where ordinary people, that is, the lowly 'original people', live, with the cabins where the immortal cultivators also live.
It's the cabin where the 'real people' live that are isolated, Just put the virus in the cabin of the original person; or let all the immortal cultivators take special medicine in advance; or even in the refining stage of the virus weapon, find ways to weaken its aggressiveness to those who awaken the spiritual roots, so that only It infects ordinary people but not immortal cultivators, right?
After all, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, ordinary people are garbage and useless burdens.
Since resources are insufficient, reducing the number of garbage people is a matter of course.
But this is not how we implement it.
I can decrypt the entire implementation plan of the 'Rebirth Plan' to you.
We have no intention of isolating everyone or asking anyone to take special medicines in advance.
Even, for the sake of insurance, our ancestors All special medicines and materials that can be used to refine medicines have been destroyed long ago.
Once I decide to release the virus, it will spread throughout the Firefly in an instant, randomly killing its prey.
No one will be spared, whether it is a cultivator or an ordinary person, including myself.
Get infected and eventually die.
Do you understand, the ancestors who made this decision did not regard themselves as a 'superman' who could decide the life and death of 'mortals'.
Regardless of cultivators or ordinary people, everyone is the same.
Many people will die if they obey the fate of fate.
But more people will carry their baggage and move on, moving forward in... the dark universe.
It may be said that the ancestors who formulated the 'rebirth plan' are deceiving themselves, but I think this is probably the biggest difference between them... us and the immortal cultivators. " Tang Dingyuan's heartbeat and breathing became extremely difficult, and the upper and lower rows of teeth were clenched so hard that it made people feel that even if a starship was placed in his mouth, he would chew it up: "No matter how you defend, I still Unacceptable, absolutely not!”
"Then, brother Dingyuan, can you tell me what we should do?"
Cui Lingfeng sighed and said, "Suppose now, as the captain, you know very well that the resources on the ship are only enough for a hundred people to barely survive, but we have two hundred people, two hundred mouths waiting for food, and never enough food. belly, what would you do?”
Tang Dingyuan fell into deep thought, speechless, and his voice became much lower: "Cultivators, cultivators shouldn't be like this, so..."
"If you think cultivators shouldn't be so dark."
Cui Lingfeng said lightly, "That's just because someone stood in front of you and helped you do these dark, dirty, and cruel things first, my captain."
In the cell, Ding Zhengyang laughed like a crow: "Captain, do you know the truth about the 'Rebirth Plan'?
Your conscience is right!
Tell me, will you draw up such a plan?"
Is the person who planned the plan a real cultivator?
No, I am not the first cultivator on the Firefly.
There have been cultivators on this ship for a long time, and it has been occupied by cultivators for a long time!"
Cui Lingfeng said coldly: "Ding Zhengyang, we did not implement the 'Rebirth Plan' until the end, and the Firefly still survived."
"Yes, you survived, but it's just because you were lucky enough not to encounter a 'special crisis'!"
Ding Zhengyang smiled and said, "But luck will not always be so good.
If it had not encountered the Imperial Claw Fleet or the Star Federation, the Firefly would have continued to drift towards the depths of the Star Sea, towards unknown and inaccessible places.
Starships are slowly aging, and within a few hundred years, a 'super crisis' will definitely happen!
Don't argue with me about this, I'm the first mate and I know every thread of every screw on this ship!

In other words, within a few hundred years, even if the Empire does not capture the Firefly, the Firefly itself will be swallowed by darkness and become a small 'immortal cultivator civilization'!
Do you understand, one day, we will all become immortal cultivators, I just... took a step first!
This is Lu Qingchen's theory.
Cultivators are just 'special mutated forms' in a stable environment with sufficient resources.
However, in the dark universe, scarcity of resources and drastic changes in the environment are the norm, so cultivators are the general 'superhumans'.
