Lin's spy stepped into a place filled with the smell of decay.
This place was located at the edge of the Emerald Dragon City. The ground was covered with soft and black soil. There were many protruding mounds on the ground, and many Mao Jades were shuttling back and forth between the mounds.
In fact, this was the area where the Emerald Dragons placed their corpses. It was called the graveyard. Regardless of whether it was the noble or the lower levels, the Emerald Dragons would place their dead companions here and bury them with soil. In front of Lin, several Emerald Dragons were digging a hole and throwing a large number of corpses into it.
Dealing with the corpses of their own kind had always been a very special thing. Every creature had a different way of doing it. Most creatures with higher intelligence would feel sad when their companions died, and so would the Emerald Dragons. However, for the current Emerald Dragons, they would only feel sad for their companions who were close to them. They would just throw the other Emerald Dragons' corpses together.
Although this place was used to bury corpses, the surrounding walls were built higher than other areas. This was to prevent carnivorous creatures from being attracted from outside.
This place was also the place where Mao Jades gathered the most. They could easily dig into the ground and have a big meal. The Emerald Dragons would drive Mao Jades away in other places, but here, they needed Mao Jades very much. Without Mao Jades to deal with the corpses, not only would the place be filled with a strong smell, but it would also be easy for various diseases to spread.
Although Mao Jades' hair would also stick to a lot of fungi, it was much better than leaving the corpses here to slowly rot and grow bacteria.
Lin planned to do some tests on the fungi here. The spy stretched out his finger, dipped it into the soil on the ground, and put it in his mouth. It seemed that there were no fungi here that were particularly dangerous to the Emerald Dragons.
In terms of fighting against diseases. The Emerald Dragons didn't make any special progress. They were currently eating various plants to test which ones were effective. Then, they basically relied on their own immunity. If a disease broke out in such a large city, they might all be wiped out.
However, Lin's main purpose here was to see a new story passed down by the Emerald Dragons. Next to the cemetery, the Emerald Dragons built a building called the Mourning Hall to commemorate the dead Emerald Dragons.
The Mourning Hall wasn't big. Lin walked in through the entrance. Many Emerald Dragons were gathered inside. Some white stones were placed under the walls on both sides of the Mourning Hall. The Emerald Dragons silently looked at the stones without saying anything.
These stones represented their dead companions. If they wanted to commemorate them, they had to pick up a white stone and put it in the Mourning Hall, then pray. Every once in a while, an Emerald Dragon would be responsible for cleaning these stones...
This was indeed normal, but the Emerald Dragons had a special imagination. They believed that after death, they would still have consciousness. Moreover, this consciousness would form a special object called Shuha.
Emerald Emerald Emerald Dragon's name.. . and Lin Lin Lin Lin had a similar name.
... Emerald Emerald Emerald dragons...... Emerald Emerald Emerald Emerald Lin... Emerald Emerald Emerald Dragon...... Emerald Emerald Lin, Emerald in Lin Lin's...... Emerald Emerald Dragons.
At first, Lin Lin thought it was just their imagination, so she didn't pay much attention to it. But recently, she found that it seemed to be something worth studying. Emerald Emerald Dragons and Emerald Dragons had almost the same explanation for the soul, which was that it was a body of thought that could only exist after death.
Generally speaking, the main consciousness of a creature was born from the connection of brain cells. They stored memories and produced thoughts, so why would the cells still have thoughts after death?
This seemed to be the imagination of the Emerald Dragons. They believed that they could continue to live after death, which seemed impossible. But recently, Lin Lin discovered something interesting.
For example, electricity.
Every creature's brain had electricity, or rather, every creature had electricity. In this cemetery area with a large number of corpses, Lin Lin could clearly feel that there were electric currents similar to brain waves nearby.
There were many different forms of electricity, but Lin Lin just used a general term, so she didn't need to classify them in detail. This kind of electric current felt quite strange. The location of a creature's death was usually very clear, but it usually required a very sensitive sensory organ.
Lin Lin also discovered some special places. Sometimes, there would be newborn babies. They didn't learn anything, but they knew to run to places where corpses were buried, etc.
This was an interesting phenomenon. Lin Lin now believed that after brain death, some kind of special information like electric waves would be produced, which would affect the relatively fragile brains of the babies.
Lin Lin originally thought that it required cells, a large amount of matter, and an electric current to store information, but now it seemed that electric current alone could store a lot of information.
Perhaps the Emerald Dragons called these brain waves souls. Lin Lin also wanted to understand this phenomenon. It seemed to be related to a lot of mysterious things.
It seemed that the Emerald Dragons' thoughts weren't necessarily completely groundless. They could still discover some truths, but if they put more imagination on the things they discovered, it would eventually become completely unreal.
In the following time, Lin Lin recorded some of the electric signals here. Lin Lin decided to store this information and release it to the brain worm. Perhaps it could decipher it? After all, it used this thing to transmit signals. Of course, Lin Lin could also transmit electric signals, but Lin Lin couldn't decipher any memories from the signals here.
In Lin Lin's opinion, information alone wasn't proof of thoughts. However, she found this mysterious thing rather interesting.
After recording this information, Lin Lin's spy left the cemetery and returned to Emerald Dragon City's Upper Zone. She then approached Susumi's palace.
Now that she had experienced most of the various things in Emerald Dragon City, she only had one last doubt left.
During the ten years Lin Lin had been with Susumi, Susumi's attitude toward Lin was similar to Tucker's. Susumi worshipped Lin. However, after returning to Emerald Dragon City, Susumi didn't mention Lin at all. Instead, she became a king and established her own country.
Susumi had received all kinds of education. Hence, she could help the Emerald Dragons improve rapidly. Unlike other species like the Skeleton Dragons, even though they had the same intelligence, they hadn't developed at all during this short period of time. This showed how important it was to have a wise person in a group.
However, should she talk to Susumi now?
