Chapter 144: On the Ethics of Reshaping the Flesh

Wang Qi still remembers that when he was in Xinyue Xianyuan, he took an elective course, the main content of which included more than a dozen laws and common methods on "turning robbery". Because the content of that lesson was quite interesting, he listened more carefully.

In that lesson, we talked specifically about the ethical issues that need to be faced in the replacement of the body and the transformation of the body.

The seizure is an absolute violation of the law, and once discovered, the death penalty has not been discussed, and will not be discussed for the time being. Generally speaking, resurrection is the least recommended. Leaving aside for the time being how much activity there are in the body and how much protein hydrolysis is after the death of a corpse, just dealing with the original social relations of that corpse is a very troublesome matter.

The situation of the Soul Possessed Beast is slightly better than that of borrowing corpses to resurrect souls. Unless their own descendants also serve as their own inheritors, otherwise, the demon clan itself will not care about its descendants or brothers. For the monks of the Soul Beast, there is no such thing as a social problem that is entangled.

And fabricating the flesh is also a good option. For example, kneading soil, borrowing plants and trees to transform into shapes, and so on. This is equivalent to an alternative "demon body". Especially the earth, wood and petrified body, there is no need to face any "children" or anything like that.

However, no matter what kind of robbery it is, it has to face such a problem.

Can the descendants of "me" after being reborn really be considered "my" descendants?

After all, the purpose of reproduction is to reproduce one's own biological offspring and continue one's bloodline. This is the primary, most basic instinct of living beings. If we just want to continue the spirit, then there is no difference between the offspring in righteousness, such as adopted sons and daughters, and the children and daughters.

It's a pity that neither Earth nor Shenzhou. The status of adopted children and parents has never been equal.

So what qualifies as a "biological offspring"?

"I" am now the offspring of this flesh. Or is it the offspring of the flesh that "I" used to have? or both? Only the bloodline bound to the subjective consciousness of "me", which is the birth, can be regarded as the bloodline of "me"?

This is a messy thread that cuts and pulls and pulls messy.

Not to mention, "mitosis" and "discolonization" are fucking up questions about whether they are doppelgangers or descendants for the human race.

Of course, there are also some monks who generously say that they don't care about this issue. There are also some people who practice children's skills and those who practice bitter meditation and don't care much about it. It's a pity that the true exposition is not the way of pure cultivation. As the head of the family, he still has a little sense of responsibility, and he is not completely indifferent to the succession.

And the best way to avoid this ethical problem is to use the original bloodline.

Like Wang Qi, he was born in the Immortal League. The cultivation of the Eight Classics of the Orthodox is actually a very simple matter that needs to reforge the physical body, because when he first entered the Immortal Courtyard, the Immortal Alliance collected his blood sample and included it in the bloodline bank. As long as necessary, the Immortal Alliance can generate exactly the same bloodline at any time according to his bloodline.

But Masako wasn't so lucky. He was beaten to death back then, and he did not become an immortal, and his physical body could not be immortal or indestructible, and his body had long returned to the biosphere cycle. Even the ring of his remnant soul was changed twice before it reached Wang Qi's hand, and there was no bloodline sample to be found.

After Masako found out about this. His face changed completely. He asked in a low voice, "Doctor Liu, this ...... Is there really no hope?"

"Well, it's not hopeless. Liu Huanfeng thought for a while and asked Wang Qi: "Were there many evil monks 10,000 years ago?"

"Evil Monk...... Wang Qi nodded his head: "Well, I don't know much about history." Old man, did you have a lot of cults back then?"

"There are some. Makoko asked, "What do you do with this?"

"If 10,000 years ago, suddenly an evil monk claimed that the magic weapon in his hand was made of bones from the Mahayana period......

Liu Huanfeng was only halfway through his words, and Zhen Yanzi was already so disgusted that he was about to vomit: "You mean, the old man's body?"

"10,000 years ago was the last age of the ancient law, which is the so-called 'age of the end of the law'. Liu Huanfeng said with a smile: "There are only a handful of Mahayana monks who fell in that period, except for the two who died when the Holy Child Sect rose later, only ...... You're one. ”

Wang Qi was sincerely amazed this time: "With you, old man! It's so historical!"

"This kind of historical significance, the old man doesn't want it at all. Zhen Yanzi had an expression of eating: "If the old man is lucky, the corpse may be refined into a magic weapon and a walking corpse by people in the evil way, and then the old man's bloodline will be ...... In that form will it survive?"

Liu Huanfeng nodded: "That's true." ”

"A powerful corpse refining monster that was born between 10,000 and 9,000 years ago...... Evil Dao Magic Weapon ...... "Wang Qi has already begun to "ferry" in the Ten Thousand Immortals Fantasy Realm. Liu Huanfeng was probably from the heart of the doctor's parents, and kindly persuaded Zhen Yanzi: "Don't have too much hope, because the Holy Child Sect is a Shinto that cultivates the five innate virtues, attaches importance to order, and the first thing after gaining power is to sweep away the evil ways and demons in the world." Even if your body is really refined into something extraordinary, it is very likely to be destroyed. ”

Masako's face was so black that it was almost at the bottom of the pot. He died a death, and he only had time to escape the remnants of his soul into the ring, and there was no one to clean up his body. Originally, he didn't particularly care about what "going into the soil for peace", thinking that even if he fed the insects, it would be considered a return to nature. But now that I think about it...... Hey, what a body in the Mahayana period! What a refining material! It is not a small possibility that it will be used by an evil monk to train into a zombie, and then it will be destroyed by the Holy Child Sect!

How unbearable is this!

I don't know whether to say that Zhen Xianzi is lucky or unlucky, and in the end, Wang Qi did not find out that during the period between Zhen Xianzi's death and before the Holy Child Sect became the dominant family, there were any powerful evil magic weapons.

Since you can't find the original, you have to find the one that is closest to the original.

However, Liu Huanfeng made a special explanation here, the so-called "closest" can only ensure that the Yuan Jing bloodline root [Y chromosome] and part of the bloodline root [DNA] are basically the same as the original.

The Y chromosome, the root of the Yuanjing bloodline, is probably the best one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in the human body. Because it is always inherited from the paternal line, father to son, son to grandchild, endless, endless. The last name is the marker of the Y chromosome.

As for the X chromosome, the root of the meta-blood vein, it is not so easy to trace.

Females have two X chromosomes, but only one of them actually functions and the other one becomes inactivated and becomes a blood nodule [Bartho body]. In different cells of the same individual, the inactivated meta-blood blood root [X chromosome] can be derived from either the female parent or the male parent. As for which one is passed on to the next generation...... That's really a random process.

I want to trace a person's maternal bloodline through their meta-blood bloodline...... Basically impossible.

That said, the best-case scenario is...... I found my paternal lineage, but my maternal ......"

"10,000 years, 500 generations is almost enough. Each generation has only half the chance of passing down your mother's Yuan Blood Bloodline, so you can calculate the odds yourself. Liu Huanfeng shook his head sympathetically.

You don't have to count the truth to know it. The five hundred power of two is definitely not ordinarily large.

"I have some bad news to tell you, old man. Wang Qi said: "Actually, even the Yuan Jing Blood Root is not so easy to find. ”

Zhen Yanzi face ****: "Why?

"Su Junyu's surname is also Su, you have to come to the door and say that you have relatives to see if he recognizes him. Wang Qi shook his head: "The Yuanjing bloodline root is indeed marked by the surname. But, is it rare to change your surname or something?"

The predecessor or the Son of Heaven gave the surname, inserted the door upside down and changed the surname, the adopted son, the righteous son, the nobleman's son and the slave with the surname, the mother remarried and changed the surname, and avoided the disaster and changed the surname......

There are so many reasons to change your surname. This is nothing more than forcibly increasing the difficulty of bloodline research.

And even if it is the same surname, it generally has a different origin. Take the earth as an example, the big surname "Wang" has at least seven origins.

The history of the Divine Terran is far longer than that of the earth, and this kind of will only be more.

Immediately afterward, Wang Qi added: "In addition to genetics, you should also consider variation. It is important to know that no offspring can hold the same bloodline as the parents. Not to mention anything else, the sun in Shenzhou will erupt once every seventeen years, and at that time, there will always be some small anomalies in the creatures of Shenzhou-usually this side is extremely small, so small that even if it is magnified by a hundred or ten times, it will no longer affect the macroscopic level. 10,000 years, once every 17 years, there must be about 588 times, or 599 times. Even if there are only minor changes at a time, accumulated five hundred times, the bloodline root cannot be exactly the same as it was 10,000 years ago. ”

Zhen Yanzi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and roared: "You kid, it's your heart!"

"Sir, you don't have to be angry about this. Actually, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Even if we can't get back your original bloodline, we can actually make it better. Liu Huanfeng has probably seen too much of this kind of thing, and comforted: "You can think like this, anyway, we can't find exactly the same, and we can replace it with a better one." I can recommend a few Tianci bloodlines and a few half-demon bloodlines, the former is very powerful with special cultivation, and the latter is a slow start, but you were originally a high-level monk, and the brain is just an accessory organ for you, isn't it? It's just that there is no stable version of this project yet, but on the other hand, we can discount it......"

Wang Qi slapped his face: "It turns out that there is still such a practice! By the way, do you want to do an experiment? Let's go, old man, let's go home, I still have a little mystical body in the bucket, that thing is the bloodline of an immortal creature, I don't know where it is higher than you......"

Zhen Yanzi gritted his teeth: "If the old man can be particular, then what is the point of coming here?"

Wang Qi blinked, and then remembered that what Zhen Yanzi wanted seemed to be a "human body". He could only look at Liu Huanfeng and asked, "Well, Senior Liu, these projects." Is there an additional charge? Is it expensive?"

Liu Huanfeng smiled like a fox: "If the old gentleman is willing to serve as a volunteer......" (To be continued.) )
