Chapter 541 Look up at the stars, keep your feet on the ground



In the movie, the world is getting worse and worse.

This feeling of despair goes deep into my bones.

If Yang Yiwu was looking at an accident like a fire or a car accident, then he could still expect firefighters to come and rescue these people.

But in this unprecedented natural disaster, Yang Yiwu really couldn't think of even the slightest way out.

He glanced out the window again. The flying snow was carried by the wind and blown high into the sky. The night sky was pitch black at this moment. No stars or moon could be seen. As a southerner, Yang Yiwu was terrified of the winter in the north. The deep snow-covered forest, the dark night sky, the silent snowy night, and the howling of certain animals made it difficult for Yang Yiwu to fall asleep when he first arrived in this town.

After so much time, Yang Yiwu should have gotten used to such a cold winter, but at this moment, the content in the movie reminded him of the nights when the cold wind and snow knocked against the windows and it was still cold even with heating.

Can humans overcome typhoons and earthquakes?

Yang Yiwu felt that he couldn't do it within his own knowledge.

The people in the movie are studying how to escape from disasters rather than preventing them. In fact, according to Yang Yiwu's understanding, these world-saving contents are somewhat funny and outrageous.

At most, the wormhole plan is somewhat feasible, but in the world of the movie, people's level of development of the universe seems to be a bit low. Moreover, from some brief plots, background posters and slogans in the movie, it can be seen that people's original attitude towards space technology was negative.

"Teacher, why don't they want to let others go to space?"

At this time, a student suddenly asked.

"Because for many people, they can't even get enough food to eat, so they have no desire to go to space at all."

Yang Yiwu thought about it, paused the movie, and then answered.

"For example, if our school wants better equipment and a better playground, it will also require a lot of money. Do you think it would be better to let those uncles explore the universe with this money, or leave it to us to build a playground?"

The children looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

"Maybe, um, it would be better to build a playground?"

One of the students said weakly.

"If a playground is built, we can enjoy it, and later students can use it, but only people here can benefit from it."

"But if we explore the universe, the various new technologies developed to overcome difficulties can benefit thousands of people."

Yang Yiwu explained patiently.

"It's easy to build a playground here, but if you want to build one in the universe, you need more technology. Just like our learning, it would be easy if we only mastered the content of elementary school, but why do we still have to learn the content of junior high school?"

The children looked at each other.

“Because you can make more money in the future?”

“I can go out and see!”

"Because you want to go to college?"

Several answers.

"All of these are true. The reason why we don't stay in a comfortable environment and keep pursuing new things is because we want a better life and want to do things that we haven't done before. Easy things can be done at any time, but some things are difficult. If we want to have a better life, we must choose these difficult things."

The reason why Yang Yiwu said these words was not because he had any aerospace dream or because he could talk without any pain in his waist.

It was because such things had happened many times during his career as a rural teacher.

Many times, it is this kind of cognition that prevents students from continuing their studies.

Most parents themselves have lived their entire lives without any education, so they also believe that their children do not need too much education, and it is enough for them to know a few people and be able to read and write. Even if going to school does not require money and is paid for by the state, they believe it is better to let their children work.

It is easy to be an ignorant and numb person, but it is difficult to learn, to contact the world and to understand the world.

Yang Yiwu hopes that these children can occasionally look up at the stars when they stand on solid ground.

Press the play button and the story continues.

However, the following plot was somewhat unexpected to Yang Yiwu.

Several plans have been thwarted one after another, natural disasters continue to occur around the world, and the road to saving the earth seems to have reached a dead end.

He saw that many ordinary people had given up hope and took to the streets in the hope of finding final peace. Some even chose to commit suicide to escape a world that was bound to be destroyed.

A sense of despair is spreading.

Even in the research base, the man at the beginning felt that something strange was happening around him. Many researchers' research had reached a bottleneck and they began desperate attempts. Morality and law had long been unable to restrain these people. Rather than heroes who saved the world, these people were more like devils that were pushing the world toward destruction.

In the end, even he himself became a little crazy.

Monsters appeared on the other side of the wormhole. After a thrilling and exciting battle, those worm-like monsters were defeated, but the other side of the wormhole could no longer become the new Paradise of Eden for mankind.

Although people who were irradiated by the mineral developed certain extraordinary abilities, shortcomings such as short lifespan also emerged. Humans certainly cannot rely on this state to escape natural disasters.

However, consciousness uploading and mechanical ascension have repeatedly failed. Machines cannot support the human brain, and the difference in structure will lead to the collapse of consciousness.

The more he looked, the more desperate Yang Yiwu felt.

Even these researchers who represent hope have gradually fallen into despair.

Seeing this, there was a sound suddenly coming from outside the window. Yang Yiwu immediately stood up to check. He found that a tree outside was knocked down by the heavy snow and wind. The tree had stood outside the school for many years, long before Yang Yiwu came here. No one could have imagined that it would fall down on this snowy night.

Yang Yiwu feels that the human civilization in the movie is like this tree. It has existed before you came to this world and has stood tall for so many years. You think it will always be here, but no one knows that sometimes a sudden disaster will cause the tree to fall down, and you can do nothing about it.

He looked at those students who were staring at the screen. They had not yet understood Yang Yiwu's bitter mood. They had seen too little and were full of hope for the future. They thought that everything that happened in the movie was fictional. But Yang Yiwu knew very well that these things, although not exactly the same, were actually happening every moment in this world.

Suddenly, the tone of the movie became brighter.

Several decadent scientists seemed to have gained some inspiration from the disaster. They seemed to have found a way to save the world, and they took action.

Yang Yiwu thought that the plot of the movie would have twists and turns and lead to a perfect ending.

But he was wrong.

What awaits him ahead is an even deeper abyss.
