"This case has been going on for nearly ten years, because in federal law, the definition of" murder "is really" illegal deprivation of natural person''s life ". However, the law does not clearly stipulate that ghosts belong to" natural person ", and ghosts do not have" life ". In addition, at that time, the forces supporting" ghost cultivation "are very large, Even many ordinary citizens have not been able to change their old ideas, so after the lawsuit is brought to the final court, these murders of evil cultivation are still not convicted, and they are only sentenced to several minor misdemeanors. "


    "The result angered a lot of people, including the little girl''s brother."


    "More than ten years have passed since the little girl died. The little girl''s younger brother grew up and became a federal soldier."


    "He fought bravely in the battle against the invasion of" animal tide ". Unfortunately, he was sprayed with acid by a" one horned acid lizard ". His left eye, left arm and left foot were seriously corroded. His left body had to be replaced with a spiritual body, and he retired as a" disabled soldier. "


    "As a disabled veteran, he has no material problems in his life. However, after his sister died, his spirit was exploited, tortured and destroyed by others. After his heinous deeds, he was acquitted. This injustice made the young disabled veteran angry."


    "This is a very smart young man. In his ten-year lawsuit, he taught himself all the courses about federal law, mastered superb debating skills, and met many like-minded friends in the agitation of the" ghost cultivation for man "trend of thought. He has become a new force in the society."


    "The young man made an amazing decision after the verdict of final appeal was that murder was not established."


    "He sued the federal government directly!"


    "Needless to say, in the end, there was a heated debate between the" non-human "and" human "groups in the Supreme Court, and this was also a live trial open to the whole Federation. Almost all federal citizens were very concerned about this trial."


    "In the final trial, the angry young man asked the question I just asked, but he asked it in a more intense way."


    "He poked his hard chest with his cold mechanical left arm, the artificial crystal heart, and asked," am I human? "


    "With the development of technology and the improvement of various magic weapons and magical powers, more and more people are replacing damaged limbs with prosthetic limbs."


    "If a person''s finger is necrotic and replaced with a metal false finger, is he human?"


    The gold heart month listens to be absorbed in, not from nod a way: "of course!"


    Li Yao continued: "well, like this young man, he fought bravely and was unfortunately injured. Almost half of his body, including his heart, was replaced by a machine driven by psionic power. Is he still human?"


    Jin Xinyue nodded: "it must count!"


    "What if it''s more than half?"


    Li Yao said: "what if 51% of the body is a spiritual body? What if 99% of the body is spiritual? What about 99.99%


    He just asked this question.


    At that time, Jin Xinyue could easily answer him with federal law, count!


    But now, after understanding the cause and effect, Jin Xinyue is lost in meditation.


    Li Yao said: "what this angry young man really wants to ask is, what is a person


    "If you think that a person with a prosthetic limb and 10% of his body is mechanical, he is a real" person. "; A person who has 99.99% of his whole body transformed into a machine is not a real "person."


    "Then, between 10% and 99.99%, there must be a critical point, the critical point between human and non-human."


    "Let''s say the critical point is 50%."


    "Then, a disabled veteran like him, if 49.99% of his organs are replaced by a power driven machine, he is still a person."


    "If it''s very unlucky that the one horned acid lizard spits a bunch of acid saliva at him at the beginning, it''s very likely that he will have 50.01% of the organs on his body and need to be replaced with a spiritual prosthesis, then he''s not human?"


    "Obviously, this statement is too absurd. Such a" critical point "can not exist. It can not exist at 50% or 90%!"


    "Even the brain can''t be the standard to judge human beings and non-human beings, because at that time, the chip repair technology of the federal government was already very developed. Many people would implant repair chips into their brains after suffering from serious brain injury. Of course, they are also human beings."


    "Therefore, people who replace 99.99% of their whole body organs with the spirit body are still ''people''!"


    "So, from 99.99% to 100%, is there such a critical point?"


    "Suppose a disabled veteran is too seriously injured to retain only 0.01% of his brain cells, and all other parts of his body have been replaced with a spiritual body. According to the theory just now, he is a human and can enjoy the rights and interests of a normal person."


    "What if it''s not 0.01% of brain cells, but 0.001%, 0.0001%


    "This number can be infinitely reduced to zero. Where is the so-called" critical point "? If we say that there are still 0.0 million 01% of brain cells alive, even people, otherwise, even ghosts, isn''t that ridiculous? "


    "The so-called" ghost repair "means that 100% of the body''s organs have been damaged and replaced by the spiritual and mechanical body? So, what is the essential difference between them and the people who replace 99.99% of their organs with spiritual bodies? "


    "This angry young man, a series of questions, said the whole court speechless."


    "Even all the federal citizens sitting around in front of the light curtain watching the live broadcast of the trial began to think deeply about the essence of the so-called" human being "and what it really is."


    "This lawsuit has deeply affected the formulation of a series of federal laws and policies."


    "This young man not only denounced the law, but also visited the senior management of the Disabled Veterans Association, and finally won the support of the whole Disabled Veterans Association, even the whole federal army!"


    "The reason is very simple. Even if the famine is initially settled, the small-scale conflict between the federal army and the demon clan is still going on, and there may even be a war with the blood demon kingdom in the future. Therefore, the federal army and the practitioners are the group with the highest mortality rate in the Federation."


    "The spirits of the practitioners are strong. Needless to say, even the federal army are vigorous young people with vigorous spirits. They are more likely to retain their ghosts after death and transform into ghost cultivation than ordinary people."


    "Isn''t it ridiculous that if a Union soldier fights bravely for his motherland, but unfortunately dies and turns into a ghost repair, but loses all his rights, and other people can trample, torture and enslave him at will without any legal sanction?"


    "Therefore, the federal army and all the major cultivation sects have gradually turned to the young people, and the trend of thought of the whole society has gradually changed its direction. More and more citizens support" ghost cultivation for human beings ", and" ghost cultivation for non-human "sects have gradually become a very small number."


    "After all, since ancient times, no one has died in life. After death, there is a certain chance to become a ghost. Everyone should think about the future."


    "In the end, in this case, the federal government lost!"


    "Two years later, the federal government issued the human ghost equal rights act, which defined ghosts with independent will as" natural persons "for the first time in the legal sense. They are also federal citizens, enjoying all rights, undertaking all obligations, and being protected by the federal army and practitioners."


    "After more than one hundred years of integration, the living and the dead of the Federation have been completely integrated. There will be no discrimination against ghost cultivation and regard ghost cultivation as an alien thing."


    Hearing this, Jin Xinyue suddenly thought of something: "what about those evil practitioners who killed the little girl? Now, should they be convicted of murder? "


    "No


    A mysterious smile appeared on Li Yao''s face. "If the law does not go back, their murder charges have been ruled not guilty in the final trial. How can they punish the past charges after a new law is established?"


    "In fact, they were found guilty of several minor charges, and they were released from prison a year before the introduction of the human and ghost equal rights act, and they were happy again."


    "All right!"


    Jin Xinyue frowned and somehow regretted the old case more than 100 years ago.


    Since she became a human being, her emotion seems to be more and more abundant.


    However, she felt that the master was laughing strangely. She moved in her heart and said, "is there a story in it?"


    Li Yao said with a smile: "there is no story, but these scum were killed by several comrades in arms of the young man more than half a year after they were released from prison, one month before the promulgation of the human ghost equal rights act."


    Jin Xinyue was stunned and said, "I thought that since the young man chose to appeal, he wanted to use the law as a weapon. Unexpectedly, he broke the law and lynched himself."


    Li Yao said: "it''s true to commit lynching, but it''s not necessary to break the law. The federal army is the defender of the country, and naturally it is also the defender of the law. How can it know the law and break the law?"


    "Although all the young men''s comrades in arms were prosecuted, they were acquitted in the end. They were also not convicted of murder."


    Jin Xinyue does not understand: "why, is the court under the pressure of the federal army?"


    Li Yao said: "of course not! Because, technically speaking, before the promulgation of the human ghost equal rights act, these young people''s comrades in arms were ghosts, not "people."


    Jin Xinyue: "ah?"


    Li Yao said: "do you understand? These comrades in arms of the young people died bravely after fighting bravely on the battlefield, but left behind the ghost repair of the spirit! "


    "Before the enactment of the human and ghost equal rights act, the Xingyao Federation did not recognize the human rights of ghosts."


    "Ghosts are not human beings, so killing a ghost is not" murder ", which is the basis for those evil practitioners to be acquitted."


    "The problem is that people kill ghosts, not murders. What about ghosts?"


    "After this revenge case, when people look back at the federal law, they are surprised to find that the federal government has been fighting against the demons since the founding of the people''s Republic of China, taking the demons as the most fundamental threat. Therefore, there are many legal provisions against the demons, but none against" ghost killing "!"


    "It''s also easy to understand that even in the ancient world, it''s impossible for the government to make any rules on how to judge" ghost killing ", right? At that time, it was the practitioners who took the responsibility of "killing ghosts and demons." when evil spirits killed people, monks, Taoists and practitioners would eradicate them. "


    "But now, it''s a new era and a society ruled by law. What we should pay attention to is to run the country according to law. To cultivate sects, we should also act according to law. We should cultivate according to law and uphold justice according to law."


    "Before the promulgation of the human ghost equal rights act, these comrades in arms who died were not" people "in the legal sense. How can they be convicted of" murder "
