Chapter 158: The Secret of the Era (4)

There was a long silence.

In the entire laboratory, only the sound of Zhu Shiqiu crying loudly could be heard.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Xi, who seemed to be petrified, suddenly moved, he walked in front of the old man in a few steps, was silent for a moment, and then slammed it to the ground!

"Thank you, Professor!"

followed by Wu Qiuli, Xia Qianzhu, and Song Yuhang......

"Thank you......"

"You're a Hero......"

"We apologize for what we just did......"

Everyone walked up to the old man and gave him their heartfelt respect, even the little apple ran over, hugged the old man's greasy and dirty white coat without disgust, and said coquettishly,

"Grandpa, grandpa, don't cry, you are a hero, a big hero bigger than uncle!"

"No, no!"

It seems that he has never experienced such a scene, and the respect from everyone makes this professor, who has devoted his life to protecting mankind, suddenly scramble.

He frantically supported everyone who bowed to him, old tears were in his eyes, and his mouth was repeated, "Hey, get up, get up!" You old men are not used to it at all! ”

"No, Professor, you deserve it."

Lin Xi wiped the tears swirling in his eyes and said seriously, "Our respect is too little, and it is not worthy of everything you sacrificed, but for now, please continue, we will all listen." ”

"Hey, okay." The old man let out a long sigh and showed the expression of a truly kind elder, "You children are all smart, I don't think you need to say it, you can understand our intention to spread the image of disaster only through literary and artistic works." ”

Lin Xi nodded silently.

In the absence of direct publicity of disasters and the destruction of social stability, it is indeed the limit of what the government can do to subtly tell people some information about disasters through various novels, movies and games.

For example, Lin Xi himself, it was because he watched a lot of movies and novels about zombies that he was not frightened when he saw zombies for the first time, and it was thanks to the good psychological quality cultivated by zombie movies that he still remembered to run away at that time, otherwise it is really hard to say whether he would have survived until now.

"Similar things have been going on since ancient times, and many of the ancient folklore legends you hear are born from this."

Zhu Shiqiu continued, "In modern times, even many authors themselves do not know the existence of the truth, they think that they are just doing artistic processing of existing materials in ancient times, but they do not know that what they are doing is exactly what we want to see. Unwittingly, they have already acted as forecasters of disasters. ”

"Hmm."

Lin Xi nodded with a subtle expression.

When he was a freshman, he even wrote novels about zombies himself because of his fascination with zombie movies, and now he can't help but feel a pang of pride in his heart when he thinks that he was once a member of this great group and did his part to protect all mankind without knowing it.

But soon, he turned all this pride into respect, and helped Zhu Shiqiu and said softly, "What about later?" Professor. What happened to the Atlantean civilization later? ”

"From 12,000 years ago to 9,600 years ago, the great Atlanteans fought alone for more than 2,000 years, but unfortunately the war has been in decline, and in the end, the heroic and fearless ancestors finally decided to take a desperate gamble and launched the Temple of Light at the top of the Great Western Continent, completely defeating the vanguard of the disaster and ushering in temporary peace for the world. And the vast majority of their people and most of their land also sank to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in that earth-shattering war, leaving only some seeds of civilization sent away in advance, taking root and sprouting all over the world, which is the origin of the later Egyptian civilization, Mayan civilization, Inca civilization, and Aztec civilization......"

Lin Xi has already read this history in the novel.

The mysterious pyramid is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Atlantean civilization, and it is also the common feature of all the civilizations of Atlantis' descendants.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be fascinated.

"The peace that the Atlanteans bought with their lives and glory has been maintained for many years, which has bought time for the development of wild humans all over the earth......"

Zhu Shiqiu continued in that magnificent tone.

A picture of a tragic battle that has been passed down from generation to generation by human beings and fought against disasters with their own blood and tears also unfolded.

"But the catastrophe only retreated temporarily, and about four or five thousand years ago, the catastrophe of the end of the world returned, this time, with a name familiar to you...... Time of the Great Flood! In every civilization, there are descriptions of the great flood, such as the Chinese Dayu to control the flood, Nuwa Fuxi relying on a gourd to escape the flood, Nuwa to mend the sky, the biblical flood, and the Babylonian cuneiform records, and so on...... But just the flood, but not the whole content of this disaster, you should all remember the story of Dayu's water control, he killed countless demons and monsters in the process of water control, that are all strange beasts and living corpses that were rampant in the world at that time! And what we can hear and see now is actually only a very small part of the battles he has ever experienced, and it is also the most tragic battle among them! ”

In Zhu Shiqiu's passionate voice, Lin Xi closed his eyes slightly, as if he could see the scene of the ancient ancestors fighting with countless strange beasts and living corpses, and suddenly felt that even his heart was about to burn into a burning fireball!

Soon, however, the old man's voice fell low again.

"Regrettably, the war has once again tilted in a direction that is not in the favor of humanity......"

"Only this time, there is no Atlantis in the way of all mankind......"

"But...... Our ancestors no longer need to be protected by anyone! ”

"One civilization after another stood up and fought with unimaginable courage and blood, and they raised the banner of victory over evil in this way, from the Egyptian civilization of 5,000 years, to the Babylonian civilization of 4,000 years ago, to the ancient Indian civilization of 3,000 years ago, and finally to the Egyptian-Roman civilization of more than 2,000 years ago, and ...... Our Chinese civilization at its peak! ”

"Generations of brilliant civilizations have risen and fallen in the smoke of war, and countless sages have died on the battlefield, but we human beings have not been extinct because of this, but have developed more and more prosperous in war! There are more and more victories for us! It wasn't until the Middle Ages that we finally won the final victory! ”

"Bloody! Hopeless! ”

Zhu Shiqiu opened his arms suddenly, like a general returning triumphantly, and shouted arrogantly,

"Eventually, those damned beasts and corpses have finally turned into demons and monsters, and our heroes have been completely driven into the primeval jungle and deep night!"

"Remember the Crusades of the Middle Ages and the Black Death, which killed a third of Europe's population? That's the final showdown between us and these bastards! At that time, Europe, as the main battlefield of that decisive battle, paid too painful prices, and the Mongol army of our westward expedition was by no means fighting for any hegemony and territory! They are in order to make peace with the Holy See in Europe and work together to completely destroy these mortal enemies who have invaded our world! ”

"Luckily, we won the war......

Zhu Shiqiu's voice seemed to turn into a gentle wave wandering in the long river of history, full of the sweetness of memories, and he said in a low voice,

"After that, there is the movement of the Holy See to hunt down and eliminate vampire werewolves that you are all familiar with, and the legend of those Taoist monks and chivalrous warriors in China who subdued demons and eliminated demons, which are all historical relics left behind when sweeping away the remnants of the enemy......

"It's just that for this victory, we humans have also paid too heavy a price...... The four ancient civilizations have fallen three, the prototype of European civilization, but also because of years of war and become impoverished, only our Chinese civilization remains, because of the latest rise, so in the end fortunately took on the glorious task of the end of this war, whether it is the so-called Mongolian fleet to the east of Japan, or later Zheng He's fleet seven voyages to the West, in fact, are to hunt down those who fled overseas to the remnants of foreign races, in order to leave us descendants a completely clear and peaceful world! ”

"Otherwise, why do you think the vampires and werewolves of the West would become a legend? Why do you think that since the Ming Dynasty, China's monsters and zombies have been completely extinct, and no real evidence can be found? ”

"Because they...... We've wiped them all out! ”
