In modern times, it is not too difficult to carve these stone statues.

But in ancient times, there were no iron tools. According to archaeologists' speculation, it takes 30 laborers to complete a stone statue and work 8 hours a day for 1 year. This is without counting the work of transporting the stone statues......

The stone statues are scattered all over the island, mainly on the seashore, and are considered great relics in terms of human civilization.

Go around the island and return to the city in the evening.

Mo Fan saw a lot of stone statues today and visited the quarry, where there are still new stone statues made.

"Professor Matt, what are the mermaid mummies, the Apollona clones, and the ghost baby mummies you talked about at noon?" Mo Fan asked, as he drank a glass of juice at the resort restaurant.

"These are what Professor Mooro told me. Matt spread his hands out and said.

I said...... You don't believe me, there really is a mermaid mummy, which is stored in the same place as the ghost baby mummy, in a temple on the island of Nuku Hiva. You don't believe you can go and see. Abrona means sea god and ruler of the sea in the Matar language, and I have seen it all with my own eyes as a private collector in Singapore. ”

"Is the ghost baby mummy a baby mummy with horns on its head?" asked Professor Crowe.

"You know?"

"Many temples in Japan have 'oni bones', also called oni mummies, and I've seen two of them. According to my research, it is more appropriate for these mummies to be called living mummies......" Professor Crow showed a strange expression: "The Japanese people are too perverted, and there is a kind of 'self-propelled mummy' to understand, and the production process is quite terrifying." And the so-called ghost mummy, I think it's a kind of lesion. There are very many strange cases in the world, and there is a lesion where the body grows keratin, and there is a ...... that grows on the head."

This kind of topic is not everyone's cup of tea, and it makes people feel uncomfortable.

The waiter brought the appetizer, and Mo Fan changed the topic and talked about the civilization of the Mu Continent.

Professor Zhao has conducted in-depth research in this regard, Professor Mooro has also collected and sorted out relevant materials before, and the other professors are all marine biologists or bioengineers, and they cannot be said to be uninterested in archaeology, and they do not have an in-depth understanding.

Listening to Professor Zhao and Professor Mooro, others raised objections.

"In 12,000 years, a huge continent was swallowed up by the Pacific Ocean, which is almost impossible. Professor Matt shook his head.

"Legend has it that there are no steep mountains in the Mu Continent, only plains and gentle hills. Professor Zhao looked at Professor Antonic, and among the professors, he was the only one who had the deepest research on the address: "If it is not a whole continent, but many plain islands, is it possible for it to sink?" ”

Professor Antonik pondered for a long time: "12,000 years ago, I heard from a professor of geology in the college that there were many incredible disasters on Earth in that short period of time. For example, a major flood, a change of address, and the sinking of an island...... In the eastern Florida and eastern Dominican oceans, a large portion of the oceans could be identified as land 12,000 years ago. 12,000 years ago, there was also a mass extinction on the European continent, which is suspected to be related to the Great Flood. ”

The legend of the Great Flood can be found all over the world.

In the West's Noah's Ark, China's Dayu's water control, Mesopotamia, India, Maya, Africa and other civilizations, there are legends of floods and extinctions, and they are all very ancient legends.

"However, there are also places where there is no legend of the Great Flood, such as Japan, Mongolia, Korea, and Central Asia. They also have a long national history......"

Mo Fan cut a steak, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "In the era of the Great Flood, there may not be these peoples. ”

Professor Antonik smiled: "Let's not talk about North Korea and South Korea, their history is really not very long." Japan too...... But Mongolia and Central Asia. ”

"If a flood comes to a tsunami, they don't feel it anywhere. ”

Professor Antonik was suddenly stunned and nodded: "Harvard University has done relevant research, and the most likely time is 7,000-8,000 years ago. At one point in that time, the world's sea levels rose by more than one metre. However, the occurrence of the Great Flood is no longer verifiable, and in fact it is normal for there to be legends of Great Floods all over the world, even in modern times, floods occur frequently around the world. ”

12,000 years ago, there was also a meteorite impact on the earth, and the sinking of Atlantis was mostly related to the impact of meteorites. But at that time, Xiaobai was asleep and didn't know what was going on in the outside world.

After a few days on the island, Mo Fan listened to the tour guide introduce many local legends, and also visited several ancient great sacrifices.

Aboriginal sacrifices, however, are not so pure because of Christian influences. According to the high priest, Easter Island is not alone for hundreds of years, and there are at least three islands within a few hundred kilometers of the surrounding area, which float, sometimes more, sometimes less......

It sounds more and more mysterious.

If there are floating islands in the inner lake, it is understandable and relatively normal. But floating islands in the ocean are not so easy to understand.

"Why are you interested in these things?" Zhao Jiyang asked when he saw that Mo Fan was still looking at the various materials translated on Easter Island.

"Curious. You say, there will be floating islands in the world, at sea. ”

Zhao Jiyang glared and shook his head: "You have fallen into the devil." I know pumice stones, but floating islands, certainly do not exist. ”

Mo Fan found Professor Zhao with curiosity, and he said: "South of the east, south of the south, there is a small island, a small country. The island is unpredictable, there are fire birds, fire snakes, villains, and fairy herbs...... This is a story recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Book of Overseas. Professor Zhao saw the information Mo Fan was holding: "What do you have in your hand?"

"I visited an aboriginal high priest on the island, and he told me some legends that I asked the guide to sort out. It says that Easter Island was not an isolated island hundreds of years ago, and that there were at least three islands around it, and more than a dozen islands, and these islands were mobile. One of the islands collided with Easter Island. ”

"Floating islands?" Professor Zhao was stunned.

On Easter Island, there are some stone statues wearing top hats.

The top hat is a large round stone, and these stones are very lightweight, which is commonly known as pumice.

Pumice is a volcanic stone, and the inside is all empty and full of gas, like a honeycomb. Such pumice stones are found in many places, but the common pumice stones are very small. And the pumice stones on Easter Island, some of them are huge. Air-dried pumice can float on the surface of the sea, but it will sink after a long time of immersion. It's a joke to form a floating island with pumice stones.

Professor Zhao took the information in Mo Fan's hand, and he was not even interested in fishing, so he went back to the living room upstairs to take a closer look.

Legends often have an element of exaggeration.

This was in an era before the invention of writing, and the only way to record history was by word of mouth, so legends are often unverifiable, and the events described are long in the past long before the invention of writing.

The trip to Easter Island was supposed to be a rest and travel, relax, and the trip was over, but there were more unsolvable doubts in everyone's hearts. Perhaps, visitors who come to Easter Island to see these great ruins will have all kinds of doubts in their minds when they leave.
