Deng Chenfei said: "This is exactly what I want to say. As I said before, there was very little knowledge of UFOs until modern science was recognized. Therefore, a lot of folklore is the existing culture in this area, and this culture affects people's thinking, so when some coincidences or natural phenomena occur, people will be subject to the psychological hints of this kind of culture.

"Only savages have this kind of legend all over the world: in China, as early as the pre-Qin period, there are records about savages in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"; In many ancient books and local chronicles, there are also many records of 'wild people', 'hairy people' and 'adults'. In the Republic of China, there is a legend of the horse gang taming the savages to do coolies; In contemporary times, there are many stories of wild men in Shennongjia and other parts of China.

"Abroad, Americans call this huge humanoid creature 'Bigfoot', in the Himalayas, some people have seen this humanoid creature called it 'Snowman', and in Mongolia some people have also found this amazing creature. There are also many places in the world where there are many stories about these creatures. ”

Hu Tianjie said: "You are saying that the biggest difference between the mystery of the wild man and other strange events is that before people found the wild man, they did not receive such a psychological suggestion that 'there are wild people in the world', so this kind of sighting is very small. ”

Deng Chenfei said: "Yes, so I think there is a high probability that wild people have existed. ”

After hearing this, Hu Tai was slightly pleased: "Well, since you know so much about savages, based on paleontology, what insights do you have?" ”

Deng Chenfei said: "I think the wild man should be the giant ape that appeared in prehistoric times. However, there are other possibilities. ”

Hu Tai said: "I have always thought that the wild man should be a giant ape, what else could you say?" ”

Deng Chenfei said: "The giant ape is an ancient creature that existed at the same time as the giant panda, and it really existed, as evidenced by fossils. But experts generally assume that the great apes are extinct.

"But I have a different opinion: the great ape can already walk upright, and its behavioral characteristics should be very similar to that of humans, but it is a branch that is evolutionarily similar to that of humans.

"I think that in the primitive society of human beings, there may be large-scale hunting of giant apes, or there are territorial differences with giant apes. The great apes everywhere were no match for humans, so they were eventually forced to flee to the deep mountains and old forests that humans did not want to set foot in. And the development of human civilization is constantly expanding, and when it expands to the edge of the wild man's hidden place, it will occasionally encounter the wild man. At this time, human beings have long forgotten the history of their ancestors and savages fighting for territory. Savages, on the other hand, have exhausted their children and grandchildren for generations, making hiding from humans the first priority of survival. ”

Hu Tianjie took a bite of food and said vaguely: "These are your personal imaginations, is there any evidence?" ”

Deng Chenfei said categorically: "Of course there is." ”

Hu Tai had already put down the dishes and chopsticks at this time, listened attentively to Deng Chenfei's analysis, and said with a little surprise: "You said you have evidence?" ”

Deng Chenfei said: "Yes. There was a Qiang tribe in China who once competed with the Central Plains for territory, but were later defeated by the Central Plains and eventually forced to move to the mountains in the west. ”

Hu Tianjie said: "What is the relationship between the Qiang people and the savages? You wouldn't say that the savages evolved from the Qiang, right? ”

Deng Chenfei said: "Of course not. I once read in a magazine that there is a legend about the Qiang people. Legend has it that when a tribe of the Qiang people first moved to an unknown mountainous area, they found that the place had already been occupied by a group of long-haired humanoids.

So the ancestors of the Qiang people and this humanoid creature started a war for territory. The two sides agreed on a time and threw snow blocks at each other for a fight. But when the appointed time came, the savages were honest and just threw snow at the Qiang; At first, the Qiang people also threw snow blocks at the wildlings, but later they found a white stone, so they threw white stones at the wildlings instead. The savages are not as cunning as humans, and still throw snow at the Qiang. Snow is naturally not as hard as stones, so in the end the wild men suffered heavy casualties and were forced to flee to the colder Himalayas. ”

Hu Tianjie said: "What you said is just an ancient legend of a nation, how can you take it seriously?" Besides, savages are still animals after all, if they really exist, they would not have been discovered by humans long ago, at least corpses would have been found, but now savages don't see people alive or dead, and they are just a lie made up for tourism. ”

"In fact, many experts have insisted on classifying chimpanzees and orangutans as humans," Deng said. ”

Hu Tianjie said: "Oh my God, what you said is true? Then he asked Hu Tai, "Uncle, is what he said true?" ”

"There was a little debate about whether to turn chimpanzees into humans, but in the end, chimpanzees were not classified as humans," Hutai said. ”

Deng Chenfei said: "Humans habitually underestimate the IQ of animals, especially mammals. In fact, mammals and birds are the two highest types of animals, and humans are just one of the slightly special animals of mammals.

"Someone in the United States once conducted an experiment on a red orangutan. The experimenter fed a gorilla from a young age, taught the orangutan to learn sign language from a deaf human being, and took the orangutan to a human school......

Hu Tianjie smiled: "You won't tell me that this orangutan can be the same as a human in the end, right?" ”

Deng Chenfei said: "Although this orangutan was unable to speak, it was able to communicate with humans in simple sign language. ”
