Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Events of a Distant Age

Li You felt that he had a very long dream. Or maybe he watched a long, long movie, or maybe it was because the movie was so long that he forgot the beginning and the end, along with some of the content in the process. He only remembered that if it was a movie, it would be considered a historical documentary.

The beginning of the movie seems to be in the ancient flood famine, but because it is too long, Li You's memory of these contents is only a layer of blue-gray fog, and occasionally some fragments appear in his mind, in the clips, tribal migration, war, sacrifice, etc. during the ancient flood period swarmed out, these pictures are usually not big, except for the pictures of natural disasters, the rest are not shocking. What attracted Li You's attention the most was the strange creatures that lived in those tribes. Most of these creatures have human heads, but their bodies are cows or bears, or snakes and horses. Others, on the other hand, have a human body and an animal head. There are many similarities with the genetic hybrids mentioned in popular science fiction novels.

These strange creatures did not seem out of place in the survival of the human tribe, but Li You found that these creatures had a very high status in the tribe, worshipped by people, like gods and totems, and some creatures simply became the leaders of the tribe or the existence of priests.

Raids between tribes were frequent, small tribes were annexed, and totems were added to their totem symbols by the victors. Some tribes plundered more resources and slaves through wars, and became more powerful, and the scale of the wars that followed became correspondingly larger, starting with dozens or hundreds of people, and gradually evolving into thousands, and weapons from simple stone axes and bamboo spears, to bronze tools, and even leather armor.

Li You didn't have much interest in these contents, but a natural disaster shocked Li You incomparably, that is, under the night, huge fireballs fell into the earth from nine days away, and the mountains collapsed in an instant, the sea poured in, and countless tribes completely disappeared overnight.

But, in fact, the content of the "movie" actually started after this scene.

The fireball was formed by the fall of an extraterrestrial meteorite, and some time after the catastrophe, a powerful tribe sent people to dig up the remnants of the meteorite from the crater.

After the meteorite was transported back to the tribe, it was worshipped as a holy relic, but there was a person in charge of tying knots in the tribe who stood in front of the meteorite, observing the strange patterns on it, and stood for several days and nights. After that, the man no longer tied knots to keep notes, but carved symbols on wooden tablets and bones to replace the original contents, and taught the meaning of each symbol to every child in the tribe.

"Cangjie ......" Li You saw this scene, and a name came to mind. In Chinese history and culture, Cangjie is an inescapable figure. Although Li You is not sure that the character in the "movie" is Cangjie, this person has done what Cangjie did, and he is not wrong to call it so.

But further, if this person is the legendary Cangjie who created the text, then it can also be deduced that the tribe that Li You saw was the tribe of the Yellow Emperor during the ancient legend period.

"If this person is Cangjie, then who is the Yellow Emperor?" Li You's heart was full of curiosity.

Soon, since someone realized the way to create words on the pattern on the meteorite, there were often people in the tribe who would be in a daze with this stone. Some stand for a while and leave, while others stay awake day and night, meditating day and night. But without exception, Li You found that those who were qualified to be in a daze in front of the stones were all people who were relatively wealthy or had status in the tribe, and these people had a lot of slaves and wealth, so they didn't need to take care of their daily lives by themselves.

Seeing this scene, Li You couldn't help but sigh again, and secretly thought: "Sure enough, the earliest philosophers were all made by people who had money and a lot of free time. Sure enough, it was because I was full and had nothing to do that I came up with a lot of big truths. ”

What surprised Li You was that most of the people who had meditated in front of the meteorite had some gains. One of them, a man with an exceptionally burly figure, sat aside and pondered when he had nothing to do. Li You faintly felt that this person was the legendary Yellow Emperor, but he was not sure.

But then the picture was extended, and Li You saw that one day this man built a furnace, melted the meteorite that was regarded as a sacred relic by the tribe, cast three big tripods, and asked Cangjie to engrave the content of the rest of the people on the three big tripods.

"Yellow Emperor Baoding!" Seeing this scene, many doubts in Li You's heart suddenly disappeared, knowing that this should be the Yellow Emperor Baoding in ancient legends, symbolizing the authority of heaven, earth, people and people.

Then there was a larger-scale war, Li You also knew that not only the Yellow Emperor got the meteorite outside the sky, but also some lucky tribes of all sizes also got similar meteorites, and they also gained from these meteorites, and people who opened wisdom sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but the totem relics of many tribes became stronger because of the existence of these meteorites, and at the same time became more human-like, under the leadership of these totem creatures, it was not only humans who participated in the war, but also tamed bears, tigers, leopards, and elephants, and went to the battlefield. The war in the ancient legend appeared in front of Li You.

It was also after seeing these that Li You knew that there was not much exaggeration in the records of ancient times in history, but people in later generations could not imagine that people in this era had all kinds of abilities because of the appearance of meteorites.

Not far from the myths and legends, the Yellow Emperor tribe successively defeated the Chiyou and Yandi tribes, annexed them, and went around to raid meteorites from outside the sky. After these meteorites gathered, the Yellow Emperor tribe spent several years casting them into several fish-like objects.

As soon as these fish-like artifacts appeared, Li You knew what they were. This is the so-called artifact yin-yang talisman.

After the Yin and Yang Charm appeared, it seemed to possess magical abilities. It can actively choose its master, and the person who owns it seems to have magical abilities, but once it leaves its owner and chooses a new owner, the old owner will be replaced by the new one. The new master often uses the appeal of the yin-yang charm to summon all the leaders of the subjugated tribe and drive the old master from the status of the co-lord of the world.

Li You knows that this is the so-called "Zen Rang", in history, the ancients advocated the prestige era of yearning, and the truth was actually like this. Li You wanted to laugh, but he couldn't. Because he found that after several generations of "Zen Rang", the three treasures of the Yellow Emperor were melted.
