Chapter 213: We Are Capable People

These two races were miserable and miserable in this era, and their living conditions were very difficult.

They knew the benefits of fire, but it was not for roasting, but because it was cold, they approached a large tree that had been struck by lightning and burned to keep warm, and found that other animals did not dare to approach it at all.

So they took fire as their guardian spirit, and often found a place where there was fire to sleep.

Later, slowly, they found that there was too little natural fire, so they took the branch and touched the flame, and then found that the flame was like an infectious disease, and it would spread from that branch to their branch.

Over time, they began to use this method to make fire.

As for how it developed later, it can basically be imagined.

The above are also Wang Yang's speculations, and they cannot be taken seriously.

Even fire is treated as a living thing, you can imagine how backward it is, plus the beasts of this world are rampant, and giant beasts are everywhere, which is difficult to deal with.

In the past few days, many people have come to ask Wang Yang and asked him why those people look a little different from themselves.

How else can Wang Yang answer? He gave an example, drawing a wild boar with only tusks and a boar without tusks.

"Behold, they are both pigs, but one is a boar without tusks, and the other is a boar with tusks. As for that group of people, if the tools are not good, they are equivalent to wild boars without fangs, while we have good tools, which is equivalent to having fangs...... Hey? I'll go, no, how can I give such an example of lack of morality. ”

Although everyone didn't know that Lu Dao was scolding people by describing people as pigs, they couldn't help but giggle when they saw Wang Yangqi's embarrassed expression.

"Don't laugh!"

"Giggles! Whining! ”

"Don't laugh!"

"Giggles! Whining! ”

Wang Yang's mind was full of black lines. The more you persuade, the louder you laugh.

In fact, he also wanted to find out which race he belonged to. What kind of people is the other party?

With a little analysis, you can make a rough judgment.

First of all. As an earlier human, Homo sapiens naturally have a hunched waist, look shorter, and have more hair.

But this is not the only criterion for measurement, late Homo sapiens actually look about the same as early Homo erectus.

Moreover, some capable people have suffered more from the cold because they have entered the north, and it is impossible for them to evolve to lose their warm hair.

And some tropical talents, because the weather is too hot, they will lose their hair. This is due to changes caused by geographical and climatic circumstances.

Homo erectus, on the other hand, will be different because they will free their hands more, their fingers will become dexterous, they can use animal fur for warmth, and gradually do not need hair.

Another difference is standing.

Why did Australopithecus stand for? Because of the rapid degradation of the forest, barrenness appeared, and the trees were gradually replaced by the large needle grass, which was taller than them.

As they perched on trees. Without the climbing of trees, they can only land, and if they do not stand up, walking in the grass is equivalent to being blind. There is no way to avoid danger.

In order to survive, they can only stand and need to see farther. At first standing, you can imagine them staggering and comical. Curved outside the figure-of-eight, walking like a penguin.

Looks funny. Actually, it's not funny at all, without them standing up, there would be no fast-evolving humans.

Nature is always cruel, and if you want to gain vision, you need to pay a corresponding price.

When Australopithecus stood up, their hands were actually useless, unable to clasp each other and unable to move freely.

This gave the other predators a great opportunity, and in their opinion, the slow-walking ape-men, with weakened sense of smell and hearing, were good food.

So a group of large carnivores, represented by the dinosaur, rose up and hunted Australopithecus.

Until some of the ancient apes resisted when they were attacked, and picked up the things around him with both hands, maybe it was rock, maybe wood, and in short, he escaped the catastrophe.

After tasting the benefits, he naturally couldn't put it down, stayed by his side to defend, and then he passed on this skill to future generations.

His descendants stoned a prey to death by a fortuitous coincidence.

So it began to be used for hunting.

Later, they gradually evolved to use more and more tools, and then process tools, because they found that stones with holes were very lethal, and if they were not careful, they could add scars to themselves.

If you use it well, you can give your prey a scar.

In the early days of development, there were stone tools and bone tools.

Wood products have not yet been popularized in a big way, which requires not only processing capacity, but also a lot of creativity.

By the late period, they were already using a large number of wood products, and by this time, Homo erectus had also appeared, and the two sides had lived together for at least 200,000 years.

Wang Yang didn't know if they had a relationship, and he didn't know what kind of relationship they had, so it was estimated that it would not be too harmonious.

Just like Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, the weak side will eventually disappear.

This history is so remote that it creates a gap, and it is far less talked about than Homo sapiens and Neanderthals.

Now that Wang Yang has been reborn here, through the comparison with another group of people, he knows that he should be a late-stage capable person, and the other party is Homo erectus.

So, your own group will be eliminated?

Of course not! Others go against the sky every day, what's wrong with yourself going against the sky?

Moreover, Wang Yang does not regard his companions as capable people, their evolution is obvious to all, and their brains have strong abstract thinking, which provides them with rich imagination.

What is imagination? Imagination is creativity! There was once a saying, what is lacking in this era? It's creativity!

Among the capable people, there are subdivided races, and the others do not talk about him, but only say that there is a type of people with a large brain capacity, called strong people, and their brain capacity has reached 700 to 900 cubic centimeters.

Wang Yang looked at his tribe, he and the others should be the legendary strong people.

He didn't worry about the evolution of his own race, didn't he just free his hands and straighten his waist...... Who has their own upright! He who can't say it straight is all gone!

Besides, there will definitely be more and more tools for themselves, and there are countless tools now, and many people can't wait to use them up.

In other words, if nothing else, he and others will soon evolve into Homo erectus, and Homo sapiens, as more and more people communicate and think, they will naturally succeed.

What Wang Yang thinks is whether they will directly skip the big chasm of Homo erectus in one step and evolve into Homo sapiens, or even modern man.

"Well, for sure, everyone has tools, fur, and thoughts, and they don't need body hair, they don't need to climb trees with their bodies, they just need to think about more and more things with their brains." (To be continued......)
