Elf boy Orochimaru

Orochimaru counted the stones and found that there were eleven stones in total. .

Different sizes.

The largest is as big as a human head.

The smallest one can be held in the palm of your hand.

It’s the same as Grandma Jie Zilan’s laboratory.

The equipment in this laboratory is very advanced, including optical, electronic and atomic microscopes.

To understand an unknown creature, you cannot get much information from the macro perspective.

From the outside, these are just ordinary stones.

So, let’s understand it from a micro perspective.

Orochimaru selected the smallest stone and placed it under an atomic microscope for observation.

Under a microscope, each molecular structure can be clearly seen.

In addition to biology, Orochimaru has also studied a lot of chemistry, so-called biochemistry and biochemistry. In most cases, the two will be discussed together.

Orochimaru recognized these molecules, most of which were silica and had a tetrahedral structure.

Natural silica, also known as "quartz", is insoluble in water and common acids, and its chemical properties are very stable at room temperature.

In addition to this, there are some impurities such as calcium and iron compounds.

There is also some silicic acid.

It seems stable on the outside.

They are all inorganic.

There is no difference from ordinary stones.

No activity of biological macromolecules was seen.

This is definitely wrong. The Big Rock Snake is an elf and a living thing. If it is really all inorganic matter, then what is supporting the Big Rock Snake's actions?

So, next, Orochimaru did one thing.

He cut the largest piece of rock with a sharp diamond saw.

The surface of the rock is gray-black, but when cut open, the central cross-section is silver-white.

Touch the silvery white lump.

There is temperature.

The internal components are not inorganic!

The stable silica on the surface is the "camouflage" of the big rock snake!

Why pretend? Pretending for what?

Orochimaru was getting more and more excited.

He felt that his suspicion was coming true.

Carefully, he took a silver-white object and observed it under an atomic microscope.

"My God!"

Orochimaru exclaimed.

Orochimaru is a genius, he is calm in any situation, but only at this time, he will show his emotions without reservation.

What did he see?

Atomic microscopes are no longer stable inorganic substances.

Rather, they are free macromolecules!

Orochimaru has studied biology and chemistry in depth, and he can identify any element in the periodic table of elements because he has seen the illustrations of each element.

Also, he can identify the compound pictures of any element at a glance as long as they are released on the market.

Silanes, siloxanes, silanols, silicones…

There are still many I don’t know.

However, these macromolecules, without exception, are all organic silicides that use silicon as the silicon bond to form a series of silicon chains!

Once here, Orochimaru took a deep breath and finally confirmed his suspicion.

The big rock snake is not a carbon-based creature.

It's a silicon-based organism!

Elves, besides carbon-based creatures, there are other life forms!

Okay, now many puzzles can be solved.

Why are rock snakes afraid of water?

Because compared with the carbon bonds of carbon-based organisms, the silicon bonds and silicon-oxygen bonds of silicon-based organisms are very unstable and easily react with water at room temperature.

For example, the silane of this stone, the essence of silane is hydrogenated silicon, which is an organic silicon compound based on silicon bonds and forming a shaped structure with hydrogen element according to a certain pattern.

Orochimaru counted and found that he only knew six kinds of silanes, such as monosilane, silyl alcohol...

There are still many I don’t know.

After entering water, silane will react with water and be decomposed into silica and oxygen——

This is equivalent to destroying the body of the big rock snake.

That's why the big rock snake is so afraid of water.

The silica on the surface of his body exists to protect various silicon compounds in his body.

Also, why are the previous new sprays ineffective against big rock snakes?

Because the enzyme substances needed by carbon-based organisms are not needed by silicon-based organisms. The basic life composition structures of the two species are different. What they need is a treatment method that uses silicon compounds as catalysts.

In addition, the Big Rock Snake has a variant called "Crystal Big Rock Snake". Orochimaru now also knows how this came about, because the main component of crystal is silicon compounds. If the ordinary Big Rock Snake is baked at high temperature, other parts of its body will be removed. Impurities, it is capable of forming this pure variety.

And, regarding food sources, the main food of the rock snake is rocks and soil.

This may be to supplement the silicon element in the body of the rock snake.

The so-called eating what you eat is the same as carbon-based organisms. Carbon-based organisms need to eat carbon-based organic compounds to replenish energy. So it stands to reason that silicon-based organisms also need to eat silicon-based organic compounds to replenish energy. Facts, rocks For carbon-based organisms, it should be a silicon-based "inorganic" compound, but for silicon-based organisms, it may be a silicon-based "organic" compound. After all, different species have different perspectives...

By the way, ghosts are probably not carbon-based creatures, their bodies are made of gas.

Perhaps, it is also composed of other life forms?

Etc., etc.

There are many puzzles about the existence of Orochimaru Heart in the past, but now there are clues and conjectures.

Of course, these are just clues and conjectures.

Because this stone is only part of the body of the big rock snake.

This was his first time seeing a species like the Big Rock Snake. In the past, he had been staying in a corner of Shenhe Town and had never had the chance to see much.

If possible, Orochimaru really wants to study the entire Oogan snake.

Of course, this requires the consent of the big rock snake.

In the next period of time, Orochimaru observed all the stones.

Then, he made many discoveries.

For example, the basic building blocks of silicon-based organisms.

As we all know, from the perspective of material composition, carbon-based organisms are organisms with a carbon chain as a structure. They are first combined with various elements to form small molecules such as amino acids, nucleotides, and glucose. These small molecules then interact with each other in a special way. Combine to form biological macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides and lipids, and then form substances such as cells, which ultimately become the basic building blocks of life.

But can silicon-based organisms form cells?

Orochimaru did not see any cells in these rocks.

The body of the big rock snake is covered with various silicon compounds. These silicides also constitute biological macromolecules, but they reach the highest level of "protein" relative to carbon-based organisms.

No "masonry" similar to cells is seen.

Obviously, the life structure of silicon-based organisms is much simpler than that of carbon-based organisms.

From this point of view, genetic experiments on carbon-based organisms are ineffective on silicon-based organisms - without cells, how can we transplant genes?

The two species must be treated differently.

And here, Orochimaru had a doubt.

As mentioned before, he conducted an experiment to prove that "elves came from genetic invasion".

This experiment convinced him that the origin of elves was the "theory of species evolution."

However, the discovery of silicon-based organisms allowed him to overturn this conclusion.

why?

Because the planet he lives on now is a Mercury with ecological water everywhere.

If we follow the theory of species evolution, silicon-based organisms will never exist in this environment, because the silicon chains of silicon-based organisms are very unstable and are easily broken when encountering water. If we really follow the theory of species evolution, silicon-based organisms have already existed Billions of years ago, this planet became extinct.

So, where did silicon-based organisms come from?

How did you become an elf?

Orochimaru suddenly remembered the test questions from the previous researcher exam.

Thinking of his conversation with Dr. Yew.

Could it be said that some of the elves on this planet...are from alien planets?

Alien migration theory?

Incredible.

Orochimaru frowned slightly. As he learned more and more about elves, he found that he had more and more doubts.

The more you know, the more you don’t know.

Science is like this.

However, the discovery of silicon-based organisms gave Orochimaru another exciting conjecture.

Can humans create elves artificially?

In the past, he didn't believe it, because carbon-based organisms are composed of cells, and the structure of cells is quite complex. Humanity has developed to this day, and science has been very advanced, but it is still impossible to create a simple cell. Even cloning experiments are actually necessary. A carrier that allows cells to gradually divide and grow.

Artificial cells are a fantasy.

But can silicon-based organisms be artificially created?

you can!

Because the life structure of silicon-based organisms is much simpler than that of carbon-based organisms.

For example, the computers currently used in the world are produced using silicon as chips.

As computers become more advanced and develop into smart computers, and furthermore, artificial intelligence will be formed, then this will be silicon-based life.

Regarding artificial intelligence, the development of this world has reached a certain level. At least it can create cyborgs with simple actions and conversations.

So, if you combine the characteristics, unique skills, etc. of elves with artificial intelligence...

Is it possible to create artificial intelligence elves?
