Chapter 49: The Medical System of Primary Civilization

"Can we talk about the topic of human development and possible scenarios for the future?" I was eager to learn some fundamental principles from Buweiro and see if they could help advance human technology.

"Sure, I'll share everything I can," Buweiro's promises always filled me with gratitude.

After some thought, I decided to start with the Earth's environment. "Let's talk about the current state of the Earth. Although human technology has advanced like never before, we've also made a mess of our planet. There's a lot of discussion online, and I've read extensively about it. Most summaries suggest that if humanity doesn't find a way to break through technologically and improve the environment, our civilization might face existential threats in a few hundred years.

Since I grew up in a rural village, I deeply empathize with these concerns. When I was a child, the sky was a clear, vibrant blue, but now it's often shrouded in gray haze. The nights used to be full of bright stars, with a radiant moon, but now only a few stars are visible. Mountains that once had sharp, distinct outlines now seem perpetually veiled in a misty haze. I remember a time when insects and birds were abundant, making the countryside lively. Now, even in the mountains, there's a noticeable quietness. Back then, people rarely got sick, and common ailments were easy to treat, but now we face all kinds of strange new diseases—some I've never even heard of.

From my own experiences, I believe the reports of the Earth's deteriorating environment are not exaggerated. Faced with this pressing issue, what can humanity do to address it?"

"You're right, the current state of the Earth's ecosystem is far from ideal. The pandemic alone is evidence enough. Add to that the constant wars, with some nations secretly developing highly destructive weapons. If humanity doesn't stop, unite, and focus on protecting the environment, the consequences will be dire. This is one of the key messages the Alliance wanted to convey to you."

"You're spot on," I sighed. "The Earth is like a seriously ill patient, with its body functions severely damaged and riddled with wounds. The internal systems are polluted and chaotic. If we keep abusing it, the planet's ecosystem could collapse, and humanity will suffer, perhaps even face self-destruction."

Buweiro acknowledged my concerns and then said, "Actually, solving your current problems isn't as difficult as it seems. As I mentioned before, the first step is to elevate your technology to a Primary civilization level. You already have the foundational capabilities; otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to harm the Earth to this extent.

If humanity can unite, stop waging wars, and eliminate the interference of capitalists, technological advancements can accelerate rapidly. In just a few decades, you might achieve the status of a primary civilization."

"If we reach the level of Primary civilization, how should we go about improving the Earth's ecosystem?" I asked, trying to get to the core of the issue.

"Well, as I mentioned before, there's the concept of electromagnetic gravitational mirror technology that could cloak and protect the Solar system, and the ancient Venusian plasma magnetic field—remember those?" Buweiro waited for my nod before continuing. "If human scientists can fully understand the principles of time, space, light, momentum, gravity, magnetic fields, relativity, mathematics, and physics, and integrate these insights at an advanced level, you could develop energy akin to the Alliance's Universal Energy Field. This would enable the creation of a global electromagnetic gravitational mirror or a plasma magnetic field to restore and stabilize the Earth's ecosystem."

This technology can encompass the entire globe, including space, the ozone layer, and the atmosphere. By employing this technology, the Earth's air quality can be purified, and harmful gases can be converted into organic energy. After a period of processing, the ecological environment on Earth would significantly improve, people's quality of life would greatly enhance, and the green mountains and clear waters of your childhood could return.

This is the first step—to clean up the environment. Just like the human body, cleanliness is the foundation of health and immunity," Buweiro explained.

"What's the second step, then?" I asked.

Buweiro posed a question instead, "Do you know how natural disasters on the Earth are formed?"

"Aren't they caused by natural laws?" I hesitated, then asked back.

"You're partially correct," Buweiro replied, "but the specific cause is the abnormality of natural factors. And where do these natural factors come from? They result from the Earth's absorption and conversion of solar energy."

Seeing my curiosity, Buweiro elaborated: "Think carefully. The Earth continuously absorbs solar energy, but it doesn't distribute it evenly. The uneven distribution of natural factors can trigger chain reactions that result in natural disasters. For instance, chaotic energy on the surface can lead to meteorological disasters, while excessive rainfall and water infiltration destabilize the Earth's crust, causing geological disasters.

If Earth were to be covered by Universal Energy Field like that of the Alliance, energy could be distributed evenly. Although you might not be able to eliminate all natural disasters initially, you could significantly reduce their frequency and severity.

Moreover, you could control the global climate—adjust the temperatures as desired, and prevent other natural calamities like droughts, floods, and plagues. The Earth could experience perpetual spring-like conditions throughout the year.

With advancements in technology, you could eventually control plate tectonics and magnetic field distributions, addressing even humanity's most challenging issue—earthquakes."

"What a golden age that would be!" I couldn't help but marvel at the vision. Lost in thought for a moment, I suddenly realized a critical question: "If we really developed such technology to cover the entire planet, where would we find the immense energy required? Would it rely on nuclear fusion energy? Speaking of nuclear fusion, I can't help but think of atomic explosions. Although this energy is incredibly powerful, wouldn't it pose radiation or mutation risks to humanity?" My limited knowledge of physics and chemistry only allowed me to voice my concerns.

"You don't need to worry about that," Buweiro reassured me. "Nuclear fusion is a clean, efficient energy source that transforms small amounts into large outputs. When controlled properly, it's entirely harmless. It's fundamentally different from the nuclear fission process behind atomic bombs."

Seeing my relief, Buweiro continued, "Atomic bombs operate on nuclear fission, a reaction where heavy atomic nuclei—mainly uranium or plutonium—split into smaller nuclei, releasing immense energy in the process.

However, with mature nuclear fusion technology, all other energy sources—such as oil, coal, natural gas, biomass, and even wind and electricity—would become obsolete. As long as humans stop exploiting and wasting natural resources, Earth's ecological environment could recover more quickly and uniformly, restoring the ideal state of green mountains and clear waters."

After hearing Buweiro's vision, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. How wonderful it would be to see the Earth restored to health, with humanity thriving and free from illness! With this thought, I continued: 

"Speaking of illness, I can't say for other countries, but China's current healthcare system, to be honest, is quite appalling. Many people are in poor health for various reasons, living in a perpetual state of weakness or carrying hidden conditions. If humanity is fortunate enough to reach the level of Primary civilization, will the healthcare system still be like this? Will things improve at all?"

To be honest, I am really scared by the current medical system. Back in the day, rural areas and small towns had "barefoot doctors" and even some specialist TCM practitioners with incredible skills—I've seen it with my own eyes. But now, most veteran TCM doctors have either passed away or been suppressed due to lack of medical licenses. People who fall ill have no choice but to go to hospitals, but the outcomes are often disheartening. All I wish is for ordinary people to live a bit more comfortably, without so much hardship.

"Once technology advances to Primary civilization level, it will be nothing like it is now. The current healthcare system will disappear and become a relic of history—a historical joke for future generations," Buweiro responded, leaving me stunned.

Seeing my reaction, he smiled and continued: "As medical technology improves, science will fully decipher the structure of the human body, including all organs, genes, DNA, and the nervous system. You already have the initial conditions for this. The reason hospitals can't truly cure diseases is that human greed is at play, controlling the system to exploit vast wealth. If the capitalist forces behind it are overthrown, your healthcare system will thrive, and other industries will experience significant growth as well."

"Oh, so that's it!" I exclaimed. "I've always wondered how technology could conquer the skies and the seas yet still be powerless against so many diseases. It turns out it's not because medical technology hasn't advanced but because selfish human motives are at work—harming others while harming themselves. What would happen if we didn't take down these nasty guys?" I asked, my indignation rising.

"There are only two outcomes. The first is a chain reaction that drags human civilization down, stagnating technological progress, worsening environmental destruction, and ultimately leading to humanity's self-destruction. The second outcome is humanity awakening and revolting at all costs. However, this opens the door for other alien species to exploit the chaos, leading to mutual attacks and eventual annihilation. The Alliance has witnessed many civilizations on the Earth and other planets face such scenarios. Without sufficient moral and intellectual maturity, most civilizations at the primary level end up with one of these two results."

Buweiro's explanation sent a chill through my heart.

"You just mentioned that technologically advanced civilizations no longer get sick. How is that achieved? If humanity advances to Primary civilization, would we also be free from illness for life?" Trying to lift the mood, I asked a more optimistic question.

"After achieving Primary civilization, medical technology will fully decode the human genetic blueprint. From the moment an embryo begins developing in the womb, it will undergo comprehensive scanning, examination, design, and enhancement. By the time the child is born, they will be perfectly healthy, free of congenital defects. After birth, a nano-tech chip is implanted in the body to monitor their health in real-time.

If any genetic or health issue is detected in advance, the nano-machines will immediately identify the problem and alert the brain cells. They will then request the necessary medication to be delivered to the home, where a smart robot will administer preventive treatment. This ensures that people live long, healthy lives without the fear of illness.

After reaching this level, every household would have at least two intelligent robots, one male and one female, designed to mimic humans. Even the responsibility of childbearing would no longer fall on the human mother. Instead, life cells could be extracted and placed either in the female robot's body for surrogate pregnancy or in other secure facilities.

In this stage, natural pregnancy and childbirth would cease to exist, and all household chores could be delegated to family robots. These intelligent robots would come pre-loaded with encyclopedic knowledge in their chips, capable of handling any task for humans with precision and satisfaction. If humanity evolves into Primary civilization, life will develop along these lines.

"Does that mean there won't be marriage in the future? And will people still need to work?" I couldn't help but imagine such a world.

"Marriage will no longer exist, and the same goes for other Primary civilizations," Buweiro explained. "Even if someone doesn't want a partner, they can live with their home robots, which can also assist with surrogacy. This saves expenses on buying houses, cars, dowries, and the like.

Moreover, artificial intelligence offspring, created through collaboration between humans and robots, would be healthier, with more refined genes and increasingly active neural systems as they mature. In other words, humans born through artificial intelligence would be many times smarter than ordinary people, live longer, and break through many physical limitations.

As I mentioned before, after decoding the human genetic blueprint at the primary civilization level, the maximum human lifespan would extend to 800 to 1,000 years. For hybrid offspring of humans and robots, their initial lifespan would exceed 1,000 years, and as technology advances, the lifespan of high-tech, genetically designed intelligent humans will continue to lengthen." Buweiro's words left me envious of such a future.

"People in Primary civilizations wouldn't need to work anymore. Once nuclear fusion energy and atomic conversion synthesis technologies are mastered, all materials would become inexpensive, and every household could access them for free. Even without working, people would never have to worry about food or drink. If you wanted to create wealth, you could leave that to your intelligent robots. With enough wealth, you could purchase additional robots or more advanced intelligent devices and instruments, allowing you to realize your talents and create personal value."

"A lifespan of over 1,000 years, outlasting entire dynasties—it's like becoming the ancient ‘Immortal Grandfather'. If that really happens, as the saying goes, 'people might not want to die anymore'. But I probably won't live to see such treatment!" I was shocked and laughed at myself at the same time. Who wouldn't want to live forever? Suddenly I thought of a special situation.

"What if someone's organs fail or are injured for some reason? You know about organ and bone marrow transplants in our world, right? Some people go as far as using others' organs to extend their lives. Do you think this approach is acceptable? Do other Primary civilizations have such practices?"

"It's unacceptable," Buweiro replied firmly. "Such actions show irresponsibility to oneself. In Buddhist terms, the soul would become trapped in an endless vortex of suffering, never to find peace or liberation."

His response caught me off guard. I hadn't expected him to invoke Buddhist teachings in this discussion.

"I previously explained to you that human consciousness is a form of quantum ion, which you could also understand as the soul. It exists from birth, growing and maturing with the body. Every person has their own unique quantum ion (soul) residing within them. At the same time, each individual's body is one of a kind—no two people share the same genes, much like how no two snowflakes are identical.

If one person's organs are transplanted into another's body, the quantum ion from the donor's body would combine with the quantum ion of the recipient. However, note that this is a combination, not a fusion. Different quantum ions cannot fuse due to their differing properties. It's akin to mixing two bottles of ink of different colors; while the colors may appear blended, the molecular arrangements of the ink remain distinct.

This phenomenon is imperceptible to the individuals involved, and with your current medical technology, it's also difficult to detect. Even if discovered, the findings would likely be suppressed for economic reasons.

The consequence is that after the person who received the organ transplant died, his consciousness dissipated and the basic quantum ions floated in space. At this time, the two different quantum ions lost their physical restraints and would devour and tear each other apart. They could not separate and could only fall into an endless abyss.

If the quantum ions are identical, this wouldn't happen. In normal circumstances, some quantum ions that transfer to different spaces may even gain new life. However, abnormal quantum ions can lead to individuals being born with mental issues—what you currently describe as congenital conditions like intellectual disabilities. Such quantum ions are trapped in an endless cycle of reincarnation, perpetually paying for the sins of their past lives. According to Buddhist teachings, it is karmic debt that must be repaid incessantly.

Do you understand now? This is why I do not support organ transplantation," Buweiro concluded.

"I see what you mean," I replied, breaking into a cold sweat. "So the rejection reaction from organ transplantation goes beyond physical compatibility issues. But given our current technology, we don't have better options. How does a Primary civilization handle such conditions?" I asked, trying to steady my emotions.

"In a Primary civilization, organ failure doesn't occur," Buweiro explained. "This is because nano-machine chips monitor and maintain the body daily, reporting and addressing any minor issues immediately.

However, in rare cases of organ damage caused by poisoning or injury, cloning is the solution. Primary civilizations use medical technology to clone replacement organs based on the patient's genetic code. These cloned organs are perfectly matched and cause no rejection, making transplantation seamless. If time is critical, the cloned organ's internal timeline can be accelerated, allowing it to mature within seconds. Humanity has only just begun to grasp cloning technology, but you're making gradual progress."

Buweiro's explanation left me enlightened.

"Your scientists should focus on advancing cloning technology to make organ transplantation the optimal path forward. Unlike current practices of organ harvesting and transplantation, which are cruel, inhumane, and prone to rejection, cloning is humane and aligns with the principles of scientific and moral progress. Societies that fail to move beyond such primitive methods often remain stuck and fail to ascend to Primary civilization.

As for what you should do with current technology, I have two suggestions. First, continue developing and perfecting cloning technology. Once successful, it will offer numerous benefits, including organs that grow naturally within the body and match perfectly, with no rejection during life or after death.

Second, heavily invest in the revival of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). By identifying health issues early and using TCM to regulate symptoms, the body can gradually heal. TCM is, after all, a sophisticated system developed by Taoist Advanced civilizations through their observations of humans on the Earth.

However, early detection is the key—meaning regular health checkups. Unfortunately, TCM has fallen into decline, but if revitalized, it could serve as humanity's salvation before reaching the level of  Primary civilization."

"I've noticed the decline of TCM too," I said, feeling a pang of sadness. "It's been suppressed to this extent. Why would anyone do such a thing?"

"There are many reasons," Buweiro replied, evading further discussion. "You'll understand if you analyze it carefully. All I can say is that it's about profit and severing cultural heritage." For once, Buweiro seemed reluctant to delve deeper, perhaps unwilling to involve himself in human disputes.
