It is indeed not so easy to leave Shanghekou Village, which he has built for a long time, and it has become Wang Xijia's home. In the village you can go hunting, play ball, exercise, and drink. What's so bad about such a peaceful and pleasant day?

But in the end, the urge to explore the vast world prevailed over the desire to stay put. Wang Xika asked Lang Naduo, Peng Lianhu and Meng Jianniang for their opinions, and everyone expressed their willingness to follow Wang Xika on a trip that they said they would go.

So Wang Xijia sold part of his family property and asked Carpenter Liu to build a carriage. It was a beautiful four-wheeled carriage, one of the great inventions of its time. Everyone prepared a few clothes for winter wear and brought another month's worth of rice as rations. Lang Na killed a few more sheep, some of them were pickled, and some of them were made into jerky and ready to be eaten on the road. Peng Lianhu suggested bringing the still, you can make wine and drink it on the way, and Wang Xika agreed. Fearing scurvy due to vitamin deficiency, he brought another bucket of apples.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. On a bright spring morning, the horse-drawn carriage to explore the world departed. Wang Xika decided to follow the small river next to the village, which flowed in the direction of the rising sun, that is, from west to east. If you cross back to China, then you can walk all the way east to the sea. When you get to the beach, you can draw a map and determine your place in the world.

Several people took turns to drive the horses, talking and laughing all the way, and they didn't walk for a while before they came to Xiahekou Village. The villagers were very excited to see Wang Xijia's beautiful four-wheeled carriage, and they watched one after another, and a few villagers in the crowd who often ran to Shanghekou to play ball together recognized Wang Xijia and his party, so they called friends and companions, and everyone played a game of ball.

After resting for a few days at the mouth of the lower river, Wang Xika continued eastward. There is a town 30 miles away from this village, called Peach Blossom Town. This is the first time Wang Xika has entered a big city since he crossed over. Peach Blossom Town looks quite prosperous, there are many pedestrians on the road, and there are many carriages, but they are all two-wheeled, and Wang Xijia's four-wheeled carriage has attracted many onlookers here.

In addition to the yellow race, there are many whites and blacks and all kinds of mixed-race people in Peach Blossom Town. In Wang Xijia's impression, there was no such international city in ancient China. The more I walked through the town, the more strange I felt, the people on the street were dressed in strange clothes, some of them looked similar to modern clothes, and some were obviously primitive people, with a piece of animal skin all over their bodies. There are also some who don't look like any race Wang Xijia knows, all of them are more than two meters tall, with thick limbs and long hair, like creatures like the legendary "Himalayan Bigfoot".

Peng Lianhu and the others seemed to be surprised by these various races, and their faces were calm. It seems that they have been to this peach blossom town many times. Wang Xika pointed to a white-haired monster with a height of about two and a half meters and asked, "Who are they?

Peng Lianhu glanced at it and said, "Are you talking about white-haired people? They originally looked like this, they usually lived in the mountains, and they came down the mountain to buy salt." ”

After speaking, Nunu mouthed: "Well, there are still some yellow-haired people and black-haired people over there, and they are friends with white-haired people." These hairy people are very angry, but they are shy and don't like to talk much. ”

Wang Xika raised his eyes and saw that there were indeed several Bigfoot monsters of similar size next to the Himalayan Bigfoot, some with yellow hair and some with black hair. The color of the fur is not strange, like all primates, from golden-haired snub-nosed monkeys to black-haired chimpanzees. It seems that the legend of the Himalayan Bigfoot and the Shennongjia savage is not fictional, and there was indeed such a creature in ancient times.

Meng Jianniang touched Wang Xijia with her elbow and whispered: "These are outsiders, don't keep staring at them, they will be unhappy." ”

Wang Xijia suddenly thought of a biological question, so he asked Meng Jianniang: "Can these hairy people marry the locals, and will they have children?"—he wanted to know whether these newly discovered primates were reproductively isolated from humans.

Meng Jianniang's face flushed and said: "Mao people generally don't marry people, but they can have children with locals." ”

"What does the child look like?"

"It's not just like that, a bit like a local, and a bit like a hairy person, we generally call it Ermao. ”

"Are the children born to men and women the same?"

"Why do you keep thinking about those shameless things?" Meng Jianniang slapped Wang Xijia, turned her face away and stopped talking.

It seems that this is a branch of the human evolutionary path, with no reproductive isolation from humans. Wang Xika looked at the hairy people who bought salt and fell into deep thought: "When did these hairy people become extinct? With their height, who can grab rebounds when playing basketball?"

The more Wang Xika thought about it, the more itchy his hands became, and he couldn't help but pick up a can of self-brewed soju and jump out of the carriage, and walked straight towards a white-haired man about two meters eight: "Hey, friend, do you want to play basketball?"

The hairy man took the wine and took a sip: "This wine is so delicious, do you sell wine? What is basketball?"

Wang Xijia noticed that Mao Man's voice was very soft and gentle, just like the voice of boxer Tyson. Many tall people either speak with a rough voice or are very gentle. The hairy man who talked to Wang Xika was called Zack, who was less than 20 years old and was considered a young man.

Zack was soon conquered by Wang Xijia's alcohol and approachable personal charm, and the two became good friends, and then Zack called 4 or 5 hairy people, and everyone went to a basketball court outside the town and started playing.

The rules of basketball are very simple, watch it once, and the Mao people quickly fell in love with this sport, but Wang Xika suddenly didn't like basketball very much - when you play basketball with friends like Mao Ren who are two meters eight tall and have good physical fitness to explode, you can't grab rebounds, and you can't run, then you will soon get tired of this sport.

Fortunately, in the field of football, the hairy people are not so good, mainly because the hairy people are not used to wearing shoes, and it hurts to kick the ball barefoot and with shoes when they are stepped on, and because of the hair on the body, the heat dissipation function is not very good, and the hairy people have no physical strength in the second half.

Wang Xijia has always had a question in his heart, whether the physical fitness of human ancestors is stronger or weaker than that of gorillas. Knowing this group of hairy people, to some extent, solved Wang Xijia's doubts. If these giants are also one of the ancestors of humans, then their combat power is at least not weaker than that of gorillas.

In order to prove this point of view, Wang Xijia put Zach to a strength test. Zach can easily lift two horses, both of which are tall, at least 700 kilograms each, which means that Zach can lift a weight of 1400 kilograms. You must know that the human heavyweight clean and jerk record is only more than 260 kilograms.

Wang Xijia found the blacksmith shop in Peach Blossom Town, made all the iron in the shop into a barbell, and found that Zach could deadlift 10 tons and 5 tons. This is undoubtedly an astonishing record, far surpassing that of the strongest humans. The strength of these "hairy people" surpasses that of even the strongest primate, the silverback gorilla. This is still untrained, if supplemented by professional training, I believe his strength can be further improved.

Zach modestly said that he was not the most powerful hairy man, and that he knew a man in the tribe who could lift twice as much weight as himself.
