Chapter Eighty-Three: The Great Evolution of Mankind
After hearing what had happened in ancient times, everyone fell into a deep silence, feeling that the truth of the matter was so incredible and far from what we knew, and that they were saddened by the three oldest tribes, because the agreement they had made had torn apart the ambitions of their descendants.

In this matter, I am disappointed that the Yellow Emperor, who is respected as one of the ancestors of China, is such a villain, and it seems that the truth of history is often hidden by the victors in a unique way. At the same time, I feel sorry that such heroic characters as Chiyou and Xingtian would end up like that, which is too unpleasant.
From the whole story, we can conclude two things, first, all people in ancient times were half-human and half-beast, and they were tall and had extremely strong combat power. Second, people in ancient times had an extremely long lifespan, about five times that of our modern people, that is, the life expectancy of people in that era was about 300 to 400 years old.
The third uncle heard some important information from this story, and this information was what he dreamed of, so he asked: "Then is there any explanation in the ancient books of your clan that why people in that era had such a long lifespan?" ”
Wu Jian thought for a moment and said, "There is no clear record in the ancient books, but I suspect that it is related to the physique of the half-orcs. ”
The third uncle obviously didn't understand what Wu Jian meant, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "It has something to do with the physique of a half-orc?" Why? ”
Wu Jian said: "It is recorded in ancient books that since the Yellow Emperor, the era of great evolution of human beings has come soon. Since then, humanity has evolved into what we are today. However, their extremely long lifespan has become shorter because of this, so I think the unique constitution of the orcs may be the reason for their immortality. ”
The third uncle couldn't help but be a little disappointed, he said: "From a scientific point of view, no matter what creature, after every evolution, his various abilities should be improved, why did the superiority of human longevity suddenly disappear in that great evolution in ancient times?" Could it be that when human beings have some kind of organ in an animal, their life is even longer? ”
Biaozi sneered and said: "Then dare to be kind, after you go out, you don't have to dwell on the secret of immortality anymore, just find a big turtle for your eldest master, and let him come to a turtle combination." Oh my mother! Maybe your master will be thousands of years old since then, and the fourth master will not be angry to death, as the saying goes: Brother will consume you with years and make you poor. ”
The third uncle glared at the marker: "You kid don't have to inch in, be careful that I will chop you up and feed Wang Ba after I go out." ”
The mark shrank his neck, and the thief smiled: "No, no, no, the thousand-year-old king and eighty-thousand-year-old turtle, it is more cost-effective to combine with the turtle." ”
"You kid ......!" The third uncle was so angry that his face turned blue, but he couldn't say a word, so I hurriedly stepped forward to stop the mark and said, "Don't be serious, let's talk about business now." ”
I turned back to Wu Jian and said, "How is that great evolution recorded in the ancient books of your clan, is it the same as a tadpole turning into a frog, and it changed very quickly?" ”
Wu Jian shook his head, and he said: "What is said in the ancient books is very vague, it only says that it took more than two hundred years for the appearance of a person to completely change, and the excessive time is really outrageously short, and it has exceeded the principle of biological evolution. ”
Come to think of it, any creature on the earth, even if it is a little change, it will pass in a long time, but I didn't expect that the great evolution of human beings in ancient times was so fast, so fast that we can't imagine it.
I remember very well that in that era 4,000 years ago, both people and animals, and some ancient plants, were taller and more diverse than they are now. And there are many species that have completely disappeared and become a speck of dust in history, all of which seems strange.
I suddenly thought of a crucial question, so I said to everyone: "Any species changes with the change of the environment, is the great evolution of human beings related to the environment?" ”
Sankra nodded and said suspiciously: "It is very likely that the point you said exists, the air quality more than 4,000 years ago must have been very good, and the environment we live in now cannot be compared at all." Personally, I think that perhaps because of the good environment, all species at that time grew unusually tall and had extremely long lifespans. ”
The environment determines the growth of the species, this is the most principled, just like I plant a tree at the same time as the standard, but the soil of the tree I planted is very fertile, and the climate is also very suitable, then it must be needless to say, my tree must grow fast and well. On the other hand, the environment of the tree in Biaozi is not suitable for not to mention, and the soil is very poor, so how can it grow tall?
When it comes to the environment, Wu Jian seems to have thought of something, and he said to us: "I remember that it was recorded in the ancient books of the clan that in a period of time after the Yellow Emperor, meteorites from outside the sky frequently landed on the land of China, causing mountains and rivers to collapse and flood, I don't know if the great evolution of human beings has anything to do with these things?" ”
We have expressed our doubts, because the meteorite falling on the earth has been continuous since ancient times, and it is still the case today, but there are not too many records in modern history that really caused the catastrophe, so it is really hard to say.
Biaozi patted his head and said: "Don't really say it, you all know about dinosaurs, it is said that it was because meteorites hit the earth and wiped them out, so I think that the natural disasters at that time may really have a great impact on the environment of living beings." ”
Tan Jia also felt that this possibility was very great, so he said to Wu Jian: "You give us a detailed description of some natural disasters of that era, maybe we will find some clues from them." ”
Biaozi interrupted again, and protested again and again: "This is not good, first talk about what happened after Xingtian died, and then discuss the issue of natural disasters, Biao Ye, I still have many puzzles in my heart that I haven't figured out?" ”
Tan Jia glanced at the mark with some unhappiness, but didn't say anything, and said to Wu Jian: "Then you start from the beginning, I also want to know the last place of the Nuwa clan, and why Xingtian's body was buried in Heizhugou." ”。 (To be continued.) )
