Chapter 162 The question of longevity?
Chapter 162
If Zhou Mengchen, who had just arrived in the capital, might have already said all his thoughts, like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
Unfortunately, Zhou Mengchen may not be an old fox, but he is also a little fox.
He knew that the superiors could reveal their hearts to the lower ones at will. Because the superiors had enough initiative. Saying the words in their hearts is to push the heart into their hearts. Pushing the boss's heart and pushing the subordinates into their hearts can help them feel the hearts of their subordinates. However, the subordinates really revealed their hearts to the superiors.
It is very likely that life and death are up to people.
Of course, it is also possible to have a mutual understanding with the emperor and be as good as a fish in water from now on.
But any rational person will weigh the trade-offs. If you say it, you may die and establish a closer relationship. But if you don’t say it, you may have a farther relationship with the emperor. But you will not die. In this case, you can imagine how to choose.
It is difficult for your kindness to grow old, but people's hearts can change easily.
Even though he was trying to suppress the emperor's thoughts and gained favor from the emperor, the opportunity to be favored today is likely to be the way to die tomorrow.
Zhou Mengchen's mind flipped and said, "Your Majesty, I have said that there is a way of immortality in the world, but it is not caused by the magic of gods and immortals, but by reason. If you control the way of heaven and use it, you will surely be able to grow into the realm of immortality."
His words were not essentially different from the way of immortality when he first met Jiajing.
Jiajing's tone suddenly sank and said, "Do you really think I am a three-year-old child? Tell me, what you call your plan has been successful in the past few years? It seems very reasonable, but in fact it's all nonsense. Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
When Zhou Mengchen heard this, he was shocked. He turned four or five circles in his heart, thinking for a moment. He thought to himself: "No. Your Majesty wants to kill me, so he won't come like this. I bet that this is scaring me." However, although Zhou Mengchen thought so, he did not dare to be negligent at all.
He said, "Your Majesty, you have nothing to say before Your Majesty. No matter what you ask me, when and where you ask me, I have the answer. But I think your Majesty has a little bit of thinking."
Jiajing heard this and said, "What's the matter?"
Zhou Mengchen said: "Your Majesty, all my actions to seek the Tao are based on my theory. I don't know if Your Majesty has paid attention to it. In my opinion, whether it is to seek the way of immortality or the way of the universe, it is a model. Bold assumptions and carefully prove it. Every time I engage in something, there must be theoretical assumptions. All my actions are to prove the assumptions. But everything has success and failure, and all kinds of accidents. The most difficult thing in the world is to seek the Tao. When you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening? If you seek the Tao, you can do it overnight. I don't know how to face it."
Jiajing said: "In other words, what you have done over the years is useless?"
Zhou Mengchen said, "It's not. I know the least of my efforts. I can't find the way to live forever. Your Majesty also knows that my steam engine has actually been built, and the military weapon supervisor and the cement factory have played a great role. But I understand one thing. That is, our understanding of life itself is not thorough enough. There are many problems. Not to mention whether your Majesty can live forever from now on with a mechanical body. But I can be sure that the kind of doll you want that your Majesty wants will not be able to do it in the next ten years or even a hundred years. This requires the hard work of several generations of people on machinery."
Jiajing said: "Then change the organ? What's going on with the organ replacement?"
Zhou Mengchen was stunned for a moment and said, "Why can't you replace the organs?"
Jiajing said sternly: "Don't pretend to be here. I don't believe you don't know. Whether it's in the border or in the palace, taking one person's organ and putting it on another person's body will be dead or alive. This is the way of immortality you prepared for me, and I'm afraid it's also a dead end?"
Zhou Mengchen pretended to be stupid and was quite angry, and immediately leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, please stop the anger of Thunder. I will say something and it will not be too late to kill me again afterwards."
Jiajing said angrily: "Tell me."
Zhou Mengchen said, "Your Majesty, I really don't know about this matter. After all, I've been very busy for a while and I've long stopped paying attention to this matter. I'm pregnant and at home. I rarely go to the hospital."
After hearing Zhou Mengchen's words, Jiajing's expression improved a little.
He knew that Zhou Mengchen was right.
After Xue Yi's death, Zhou Mengchen was distracted from other aspects. The connection with the hospital became less and less. Although Li Shizhen was Zhou Mengchen's brother-in-law, the two were not the same person after all. Li Shizhen himself was still a principled person. If Zhou Mengchen asked, he would not say much more about many things.
In his heart, Zhou Mengchen secretly complained that the doctors of this era were reckless. But he didn't know that this was because the ignorant was fearless. Secondly, it was because the pressure exerted by Jiajing. Thirdly, it was because of the advancement of technology.
Because I don’t know the various risks here, I ran along the technical route mentioned by Zhou Mengchen. It was like when the radiation element just came out, no one knew what the harm was, and even added radium to the toothpaste.
However, Li Shizhen still has a bottom line. Li Shizhen is a dog here. And the palace secretly uses people. Needless to say, Jiajing's pressure.
After the queen's death, Jiajing felt distressed and depressed, and various reflections. He paid more attention to the way of immortality given by Zhou Mengchen, which led to various urgings.
As for technological progress, it was also after Li Yunzhen had the first uterine removal surgery. Li Shizhen and Xue Jiujianyi only penetrated the surgical treatment range into the internal organs, and jointly performed appendectomy, large intestinal suture, etc. Many techniques.
With these techniques, there is surgery to replace organs.
Zhou Mengchen continued: "This is actually a good thing. Since this happens, people will definitely die. So why can most people survive when transfusions? There must be a different place here. Perhaps if this problem is solved, the next failure will still be faced. But in this way, we are one step closer to success."
"I face such failures dozens or hundreds of times every year."
After hearing this, Jiajing's expression calmed down slightly and said, "Do you really think your theory is correct? Or can people really exchange organs?"
Zhou Mengchen said righteously: "I'm sure. It's just that it's feasible in theory. But now it can't be done. It's because we don't understand the human body well enough. All kinds of means are not complete enough. Moreover, when seeking the Tao, no one knows what the outcome will be. And even if we find out that Chen's theory is wrong, it can be considered a wrong route."
When Jiajing heard this, he almost laughed angry and said, "This is your way to seek the Tao, it's like a blind man touching an elephant."
Zhou Mengchen said: "Your Majesty's words are great. This sentence is exactly the essence of this kind of research. It is to use limited clues to ponder unknown areas, which can be deduced and summarized. Just say one thing if there is evidence. The entire system must be completed without flaws to ensure the correctness of the final result."
When Jiajing heard this, he was a little lost and murmured, "What a stupid way."
Zhou Mengchen said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. I am very rude and do not know the best way of enlightenment, I do not understand any cleverness or sudden enlightenment. The way of learning in my life is just such a stupid way. I just use numbers to explain the principles."
If it were before, Jiajing would never have listened to Zhou Mengchen's words.
Because in Chinese culture, wisdom seems to be advocated. The kind of mysterious and mysterious way to predict the enemy's initiative. The kind of wisdom that plays the enemy in the palm of your hand. But if you are serious, hold a big gun, form a large formation, form a formation, and form a sharp formation, and connect the sharp arrows, kill a thousand enemies, and destroy 800 themselves, it is not liked by ancient civil officials, poets and the people. In fact, there is this tendency.
However, in Zhou Mengchen's entire set of methods, there is no such wisdom to directly understand the essence through phenomena. Without reasoning, he can use intuition to directly know the result.
Some of them are just like old cows pulling a broken cart, walking forward step by step. Various tangible and invisible rules and regulations seem to be more restrictive than the eight-legged essay.
