Chapter 217: The Legend of the Zombie II
Uncle Shi asked Li Xiaobai to park the car in the open space next to the road outside the village, and asked me very seriously: "Xiaozhen, I don't know how to say something to you, maybe since the Yellow River flooded a few months ago, a catastrophe has begun!" ”
"Disaster? Is it more terrifying than what happened to us during this time? I asked.
"What I encountered before can only be regarded as a prologue!"
After a pause, Uncle Shi sighed and said, "In ancient times, there may have been another kind of people living - of course, we are used to calling them zombies now!" ”
Uncle Shi's next story was very bizarre, and Li Xiaobai and I both found it incredible.
Here are some legends about zombies!
In folk tales, zombies are soulless and immortal, which is beneficial beyond the Three Realms.
Zombies can reach the point of immortality. As long as there are no accidents, the lifespan of a zombie is basically unlimited! What's even more peculiar is that zombies like to drink human blood, and those bitten will unknowingly become new zombies!
The reason why zombies have such magical abilities is inseparable from their origins. In ancient times, there were no zombies in the world. Regarding the origin of the four zombie ancestors, I have to talk about the four ancient gods who are only one. The legendary Fox is not only the ancestor of all beasts, but also the ancestor of zombies! Speaking of which, this will involve the battle of the Yellow Emperor Chiyou!
The Yellow Emperor Chi You stood up, which shocked the entire human world. As one of the four ancient gods, he wandered unrestrained in the human world and the divine realm, and inadvertently discovered the human war, and couldn't help but play with his heart and take the opportunity to cholera the world. Nuwa, who is also one of the four ancient gods, naturally can't bear to see Qian robbing with fire, so she joins forces with Fuxi to kill Qian!
He has the strongest physique among the four ancient gods, and nothing can harm his body. Even if Nuwa and Fuxi join forces, they can't hurt them in the slightest. In desperation, Fu Xi used the Bagua Array to trap Qian, and then teamed up with Nuwa to extract Qian's soul and divide it into three parts for sealing.
However, Nuwa and Fuxi underestimated Qian's strength. It didn't take long for the seal to be broken by the three souls of the Qian. And the three split souls of the Qiang were scattered in all directions, and they were possessed by the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, Nulu (the drought in the zombie ancestor), Ying Gou, who guarded the Huangquan Styx, and his younger brother Hou Qing, and became the ancestor of zombies.
However, the most peculiar thing is the generals. A long time ago, he once asked Haotian for a huge branch of the Divine Tree. After the Fox was sealed, after the branches of the Divine Tree came into contact with the shell of the Qiang, it slowly merged into the body of the Qiang, becoming a new life form, occupying the body of the Zombie King!
In fact, although there are four zombie ancestors in legend, not all of them are vampire zombies! Among the four major zombie ancestors, only the generals are bloodsucking zombies, so the zombies we talk about are all the descendants of the generals. The generals are formed by the changes in the body of the generals, and they have no soul and no soul, so the descendants of the generals have no soul and inherit the blood-sucking characteristics of the generals.
All in all, in ancient times, the zombies were the same as the current humans, to be exact, one of many human beings, but then I don't know what happened, the zombies gradually disappeared, and as for the zombies that appeared in Hong Kong movies later, it was just a deduction.
I asked my uncle, "Are the statues we saw in the tomb under the Yellow River also zombies?" ”
Uncle Shi shook his head, talked about it, and said, "I can't judge the era when zombies appeared, but it is estimated that zombies and current humans have a common ancestor, and in the era of Fuxi and Nuwa, there was no distinction between zombies and humans in the world. ”
I didn't understand for a while, and then asked, "Since they are all the same kind of people, why did they branch out later?" ”
Uncle Shi smiled bitterly twice and said, "If I knew the reason, I would know the answers to these questions!" ”
I'm reminded of the description of Darwin's theory of biological evolution in my middle school biology textbook.
The theory of evolution is for all things in the world, of course, for all human beings, with his theory to explain, the emergence of zombies is also part of the evolution of primitive humans, then it is impossible for only Chinese to experience this stage, foreigners will also experience.
After I said this idea, Uncle Shi and Chen Laosan laughed out loud almost at the same time.
"What are you laughing at?" I asked, confused.
"We just talked about this on the way here, have you heard of the 'vampires' of the West?"
In the early 90s, most of the cartoons shown in TV dramas were Japanese and American, and many of them were about vampires. Hearing my uncle's question, I nodded.
Uncle Shi said: "Actually, the vampires in the West are the zombies in our mouths!" ”
When I heard my uncle say this, I immediately thought of a vampire bat flying in the night, and then suddenly landed, picked up a child, and flew into the distance with a roar.
"Vampires are zombies? It can be calculated that the vampires in the Western world are in different times from the zombies in our country! ”
Chen Laosan explained: "This question has also been bothering me and Lao Sun, probably the Western vampires that we are familiar with now are all remnants!" Most of them became extinct thousands of years ago. ”
Uncle Shi added: "I suspect that the earliest vampires in the West appeared in Egypt, and it is very likely that those nobles of Egypt - especially the pharaohs of Egypt!" ”
Li Xiaobai was more interested in ancient Egypt, and when he heard his uncle's words, he just drank a sip of water in his mouth, and all of them were sprayed on the front glass.
"What? Are the pharaohs of Egypt vampires? This...... How is this possible? Li Xiaobai asked in surprise while wiping the water from his mouth.
"This is just our speculation, but it is not a blind guess, in order to understand the history beforehand, I also made a comparison between Chinese and Western history......
Uncle Shi and Chen Laosan's sleepless results not only deciphered the words on the turtle shell, but also linked a lot of previous information with the information on the turtle shell, and came to a very astonishing conclusion.
In addition to learning that zombies were a branch of human beings beforehand, they also analyzed why they existed in the form of zombies, to put it bluntly, zombies are actually a type of people who have been poisoned.
It's just that humans thrive by interbreeding with men and women, while zombies generate new zombies through the spread of Gu poison on their bodies.
Chen Laosan guessed that the reason why the zombies suddenly disappeared thousands of years ago must be that there was a problem with the Gu worms in the process of spreading, simply put, it should be that the zombies of the previous generation can no longer create a new generation of zombies through the Gu worms, and with their death, the zombie group will disappear.
Then a new question arises, if it is Nuwa who created humans, then who created zombies? Could it be Nuwa too!!
