Chapter 24: The Conception of Longevity
"How to extend a human life span? How can we live forever!"
Lu Zhiyu sat in the yard basking in the sun. He felt that no matter how awesome he was, he could not withstand the flushing of these years. Once his life span came, he would still die. However, although he could load his innate abilities on his genes, he could not extend his constraints and limits on his life span, or not just the limit on his life span. The most common death of humans is organ failure.
If a person wants to overcome the limitations of lifespan, the first step is to overcome the problems of cell lifespan and metabolism. If you want to truly live forever, you don’t know how many roads you have to go!
Although Lu Zhiyu already has a secondary brain, this primary brain is only aimed at computing power. Lu Zhiyu must give directions and plans so that it can carry out targeted calculations and expansions and provide help. Lu Zhiyu is also confused, and the secondary brain is powerless.
Lu Zhiyu has studied that among human DNA, there is a gene called FOXO3A, which can regulate human lifespan. This gene after mutation can affect and extend human lifespan. This gene is also called a longevity gene, but it only extends the human lifespan to a reasonable limit, which can reach more than one hundred years, but it is also limited. Each species has a gene that controls lifespan.
In addition, by observing human genes, Lu Zhiyu knew that there are dozens of gene fragments that can regulate human lifespan. Each control direction is different, but all have limits and can only maintain human lifespan within the normal range. This kind of longevity may be a dream for ordinary people, but for Lu Zhiyu, it has no meaning at all.
"Hey? How did the worm survive for hundreds or thousands of years without dying?"
Lu Zhiyu began to recall how it extended its lifespan after the insects, extending its lifespan of only about twenty years to a length that even the land fish could not see the end. Lu Zhiyu had seen the dead insects, and his lifespan had reached more than seven hundred years. If it weren't for the failure of the war, it would have probably not reached their lifespan limit.
This extends the original life expectancy limit to dozens of times or more than a hundred times. This is not just a long life and normal life expectancy, but a qualitative change, a real means of immortality. Thinking about the life of Zerg, it is really terrible. The research on genes is far beyond Lu Zhiyu's imagination.
"How did they do it, remember, remember, and mobilize all the observation records about the post-worm!"
"It's out!"
"The genetic structure of the post-worm is like this, and there seems to be no gene fragments in it that control lifespan!"
In Lu Zhiyu's mind, the wisdom deputy brain immediately mobilized all the memories about the post-worm that he observed, and then immediately opened his eyes: "What is important is not to extend lifespan, but to repair and maintain, and to transform the essence of genes!"
Lu Zhiyu's memory gradually recovered. The wisdom in his mind went over and over again and again and kept reading all the information, carefully reviewing and inquiring, Lu Zhiyu finally found what he wanted from the huge information.
"That's right, no matter how you extend it, the lifespan of a gene has its limit. Only by constantly repairing and maintaining the genes and always fixing the genes in an active state can you stay young forever and keeping the body machine running for a long time. Otherwise, even if the genes have a long lifespan, the body's organs will gradually become exhausted, and death is still inevitable. Only by constantly repairing and maintaining genes can you fix youth and lifespan!"
This is the first step for the Zerg civilization, which extends the lifespan of the insect. However, the insect still understands that this kind of immortality is still an illusion. No matter how careful you keep repairing and maintaining it, it will eventually reach its limit of use one day. Therefore, the solution to this problem of insect is to change the essence of the gene.
That's right, the metaphor of the body is a machine. The one that originally built this machine was easily decayed wood, so I'll find a way to replace it with iron, steel, and alloy materials, so that no matter how long it has been or how harsh the environment is, it cannot decay.
However, these Zergs have only begun to make preliminary attempts. Although Lu Zhiyu found some traces of this from their genes, they know that they have not taken a critical step, and they are still far from this.
What Lu Zhiyu can contact is that only repair and maintain the status of the gene is enough to extend the life span to more than a thousand years. This is very enough. However, Lu Zhiyu only has such an idea. It will probably take a long time to achieve the goal, but with the direction and goal, time, in Lu Zhiyu's hands, it is like a toy!
------------
Lu Zhiyu and Li Wei are in a stalemate recently, and the two have entered a hot stage. Recently, Li Wei is planning to make Lu Zhiyu's family live together with Lu Zhiyu. It has to be said that this is exactly the same as Lu Zhiyu's appetite, and Lu Zhiyu's little secrets have basically been hidden in the space castle, and it is impossible for Li Wei to discover anything.
As the saying goes, "When you are full and warm," Lu Zhiyu is in a good mood recently. He eats and drinks all day long. He wishes Li Wei will move here to live with him. However, this will happen every now and then. If Li Wei wants to come here, there will be moving, and things are also troublesome. Moreover, Lu Zhiyu lives in a place far from the hospital, and Li Wei does not have a driver's license. If he comes here, Lu Zhiyu will be picked up and dropped off every day, etc.
On this day, Lu Zhiyu was busy in the store, fiddling with cats and dogs in the pet store, bathing the dogs, and tidying their hair. Lu Zhiyu still likes these small animals, or rather, they like the breath of life on them. Seeing every living life, Lu Zhiyu always feels like a miracle of life. The deeper the research on genes and biological sciences, the deeper this feeling will penetrate into the heart.
However, recently, the little witch Xia Fan often came to Lu Zhiyu's shop to harass her. Every time she came over, she was in a mess. The cat and gourmet in Lu Zhiyu's shop had suffered a lot from Xia Fan's salty hands. This little girl often treated Lu Zhiyu in front of Xiaole, which made Lu Zhiyu a little at a loss. However, when it comes to resistance and anger, Lu Zhiyu did not feel it, but instead felt a little happy. This made Lu Zhiyu feel like she was born with a scumbag!
At noon, a car parked at the door of Lu Zhiyu's shop. A man wearing glasses and a suit walked down. As soon as he entered the store, he looked around and found Lu Zhiyu: "Lao Lu, Lao Lu, come over quickly and get in the car!"
