Chapter Two Thousand and Forty-One
From the perspective of talent, those individuals with extraordinary abilities in ancient times, they were affected by the extraordinary power in their bloodlines, and they were actually far more powerful than modern people!
The closer you get to antiquity, the more different kinds of xenomorphs there become......
Many people are too strong because of the extraordinary bloodline in their bodies, and they will even be directly reflected in their bodies......
Just like in the story of the Romance of the Gods, there are many people who are born with aliens, such as the third eye of Wen Taishi on the Shang Dynasty, and the Fei Lian Evil under the King of Xuan, all of which belong to the category of natural aliens......
The reason why they have such unusual characteristics is actually because the transcendent bloodline in their bodies is so strong that everything can be displayed in their bodies......
The appearance of the evil is very ugly, so ugly that it is almost difficult to recognize it as a human form, but he himself is very brave, it can be said that he is an existence of infinite strength, and Fei Lian is the father of the evil come, he is also brave, and he runs as fast as a galloping horse......
And in a sense, being ugly on the level of appearance is precisely a manifestation of their own extraordinary abilities that ordinary people do not have......
In fact, whether in the eyes of ancient people or modern people, their definition of beauty and ugliness is actually based on the aesthetics of human beings themselves, and the ugliness in the perception of the vast majority of people, the image usually shown is very unified!
That is, similar to an ape!
Yes, apes!
As a form before human evolution, apes and humans naturally have a lot of similarities, whether it is from habits or lifestyles, in fact, humans and apes are relatively similar, and only aesthetics is an exception!
For the vast majority of people, almost all apes are relatively hideous and ugly, if you have to make a definition of ugliness, in fact, it is nothing more than the sharp-beaked monkey gills, or the so-called hairy face Lei Gong mouth, and such an image, in fact, is not the classic monkey's facial features?
In fact, in a sense, if a person looks like an ape, it is actually a typical atavistic state, and the fundamental reason why atavism appears is that the blood is too strong from the ancestral genes......
In fact, from the perspective of nature, animals living in the wild must be much better than humans in terms of physical fitness, in fact, in the process of human evolution, the wild instinct is actually constantly degrading, and on the contrary, wisdom and reason are gradually occupying the human brain......
To put it simply, with the evolution of human beings, although human beings have become more and more intelligent, purely in terms of physical quality, there is no comparison with people in the past......
In the same way, although the people of the past had far better physical fitness than the people of today, they were much inferior to the ancestors of mankind......
The process of evolution has always had advantages and disadvantages, and when the mind is strengthened, the physical fitness will naturally be weakened, which is the law of nature......
The evolution of any kind of life, in essence, is to abandon the characteristics that it does not need, and then strengthen those characteristics that it needs, and with the long process of generation after generation, there will eventually be essential changes!
And the same is true of human evolution, at the beginning, human beings were the same as other animals, with a strong physical talent and a strong ability to survive in the wild, but when human beings gradually began to use tools and gradually began to build on their own civilization, evolution naturally underwent a directional change, and the evolution direction of human beings is no longer like animals to make their bodies more and more powerful, but gradually to develop in the direction of more and more thinking and wisdom!
And in this process, because human beings gradually have their own civilization, and gradually have enough tools to protect themselves, all the powerful bodies they originally used for hunting have gradually degenerated, from the original strong and burly body structure, gradually become symmetrical and flexible, and the thick limbs originally used for hunting have gradually become slender in this process......
This is also a so-called natural selection!
No matter what kind of creatures they are, their evolution will always change because of the environment in which they live!
In the case of a sinister environment, evolution will be biased towards the strength of the body, and in the case of a comfortable environment, evolution will be biased towards the strength of the mind!
Just like cockroaches, the reason why they can survive on the earth for a long time is because their living environment has actually been very sinister, that is, because of this, all of them will have the characteristics of being very difficult to kill, their body structure can allow them to survive in a variety of very harsh environments, and their strong reproductive ability makes it difficult for this animal to be truly eradicated and killed!
In fact, it's the way to survive and evolve!
Evolution is not simply reinforcement, but more of an adaptation to the living environment......
The evolution of human beings is actually the transformation of physical fitness into mental thinking......
But is wisdom really superior to force?
The answer, of course, is no!
In a peaceful era, wisdom is of course more important than force in the pure sense, which is why in the vast majority of dynasties, civil officials can always be above military officials, not to mention officials of the same grade, even if the military attaché is higher than the civil official, but in terms of status, it is often much higher than the civilian official......
This is also the so-called noble and lowly......
The reason is very simple, in a peaceful era without war, civilian officials are often the ones who hold power in the true sense, they control the people's livelihood, control policies, and control resources, while in a peaceful era, the sense of presence of generals will become very low, and soldiers are also a very disrespected group......
In fact, not to mention that in ancient times, even in modern society, the political status of military personnel is still inferior to that of government officials, and most of the officers in the army who are discharged from the army, if they are assigned to local areas, will be demoted, which is also part of the practice......
In an era of peace, soldiers will not have too high a status after all......
However, in troubled times, the situation becomes diametrically opposed, and in troubled times, the warlord who controls the army is the true master......
However, in the history of mankind, peace will last for a relatively long period of time, which is why wisdom has always been more dominant in the process of evolution of all human beings......
However, this is not to say that force is useless!
Personal bravery, no matter what kind of era, is actually a very rare quality!
As the old saying goes, a thousand armies are easy to get, and one will be hard to find, such a truth!
Individual courage and force are usually very great for the improvement of an army's combat effectiveness!
In the army, whether in the past or now, the soldiers' obedience to the generals is usually based on the fact that the generals are stronger than the soldiers, in ancient times, the strength of the generals is reflected in their command ability and martial arts, and in modern times, it is reflected in the commander's own command ability and military skills......
The army will always be a place where the strong are worshipped, and only the strong can be recognized and worshiped by the soldiers......
Especially in the era of cold weapons, a general with combat power far beyond that of ordinary soldiers can usually play a decisive role in determining victory or defeat on the battlefield!
In particular, the heads-up between generals before the start of the battle is often one of the fundamental factors that determine the success or failure of a battle!
Especially those generals with 10,000 enemies, the influence of a battle is basically absolute, just like the scene in the Three Kingdoms Warriors series of games, if a military general can always kill the enemy, if he can always step through the local camp, then the blow to the opponent's psychological level is undoubtedly very, very huge......
In fact, looking at various historical books, all strong people with great power are more or less always more or less different from ordinary people......
For example, although Li Yuanba was born with divine powers, his figure was very thin, he had an ugly face, and his intelligence level was lower than that of ordinary people......
In a sense, this is a typical atavistic phenomenon......
The so-called atavism, in fact, is essentially a phenomenon of reverse evolution!
The evolution of human beings usually comes at the cost of declining physical fitness to improve their thinking ability and intelligence......
The so-called atavism is the opposite process of evolution, which is to make oneself closer to the state of human ancestors by reducing one's own wisdom and greatly strengthening one's physical fitness......
Intelligence and mental abilities are reduced, but physical fitness and strength are also improved, which is a state closer to that of a beast......
No matter what era it is, smart people will always have their place......
However, by the same token, if an individual's force exceeds the limit, it is actually very terrible!
is like the existence of Li Yuanba, with his personal bravery, he almost single-handedly suppressed all the anti-kings in the world at that time!
Even on the battlefield of flesh and blood, Li Yuanba is an invincible existence!
However, even if it was the ancient Xiang King Xiang Yu, or the rebirth of Li Yuanba, it was impossible to compare with the transcendent beings above those realms in the modern era!
Although in modern society, many awakened people who have awakened extraordinary abilities cannot be compared with those awakened people in ancient times in terms of ability and talent in the bloodline, but their research and cognition of the extraordinary power in the bloodline are far deeper than those of the ancients!
It is because of this that all modern awakened people can gradually tap their powerful potential, and gradually make themselves strong in the true sense, rather than relying solely on the lucky ones of talent!
For the awakened ones who have reached the realm level, they have actually understood their own power in the true sense of the word, and have incorporated the rules into their own power system, such a strong person, their own initial bloodline talent, for them, is actually not important!
Because their understanding of transcendent power itself is beyond the level of bloodline talent!
To put it simply, for them, the extraordinary ability hidden in the bloodline itself is just a seed for the growth of their strength, and when the seed really grows and sprouts, this seed is meaningless, because they themselves have grown into a towering tree, and they can already sow a large number of seeds at will......
For saplings, seeds are the foundation of their existence, and the more seeds there are, the more saplings are likely to survive......
For big trees, seeds are not so important and less rare......
In the final analysis, the bloodline talent of the awakened is just a stepping stone for them to become strong......
Only those who have the talent of bloodline are qualified to become an awakened person, but whether they can eventually become a strong person depends on their own efforts......
And for those who have really become strong, the past is actually no longer important!
The so-called good man Mo asked the source is such a truth!
There will always be all kinds of talents in society, when these talents show their talents and are recognized, in fact, they have been successful, at this time, and then to expose these people, in fact, there is no meaning at all, what resume fraud, what academic fraud, for successful people, in fact, there is no meaning at all......
Because people have recognized their talents, they have recognized their abilities, and at this time, whether they have academic qualifications or resumes, in fact, in a sense, are no longer important!
Here's a very simple example......
There was once a case that caused a sensation in the society, saying that a girl's college entrance examination results were dropped by another girl's father, so the lives of the two people were also dropped, and the girl who was admitted to the university finally became a teacher, and the person who lost the opportunity to study because of the bag was finally engaged in enduring the malicious eyes of others and began to struggle hard for his own life......
A few years later, the trajectories of their lives developed very differently......
In a sense, the results of the dropped bag completely changed the fate of the two people......
But from another point of view, a student who is admitted to university through a drop in grades can eventually become a teacher, and purely from the perspective of results, this girl does have the ability to graduate from college and engage in the profession of teaching......
Even though she shouldn't have such a qualification in the college entrance examination, in fact, she did it!
At this time, it is pointless to discuss whether her academic qualifications are real, or whether they were obtained by illegal means, because she already has such abilities......
Of course, from a moral point of view, after the matter is revealed, the girl will definitely be deprived of the corresponding qualifications and dismissed from the school, but in fact, this does not affect the fact that the girl does have the ability to engage in the profession of teacher......
To put it simply, the college entrance examination is just a springboard for this girl, she herself does not have the qualifications to enter the university, but with the help of the bag drop incident, she got the opportunity to study, and she did seize this opportunity to change her fate, and when her fate is changed, how her fate is changed is actually not very important......
