Chapter 180: Gaia's Consciousness (4)

"Well, when it comes to Gaia's consciousness, we have to talk about Gaia first." Milan twitched her lips and thought back to the knowledge in the corner, "Gaia is a personal name. ”

"Names?" Liu Chang frowned, and the girl on the side also frowned.

"No, it's the name of the god, let me think about it......" Milan rolled her eyes, trying to recall something that she didn't usually use, "Gaia is the mother of the earth in Greek mythology, the god of the earth, and the mother of all gods, a very powerful and respected god. ”

"Well, it's the earliest god in Greek mythology, right? She was the grandmother of Zeus, the king of the gods, and after she was born, she gave birth to the sky, and she gave birth to a group of gods, and the world began to unfold ......"

"Is that so?" Liu Chang rubbed his chin, "I always thought that in Greek mythology, Zeus, the king of the gods, was the most awesome, but I didn't expect him to be a first-line player at all!" ”

"Well, it's not a first-line player at all. Not to mention the god Ouranos above him, and the many gods born from Gaia, he is not an opponent. ”

"That's right, it looks like this Gaia is really a very awesome character." Liu Chang nodded.

"Yes, her position in the Greek mythological system is equivalent to Nuwa in our Chinese mythological system. And Zeus is the Jade Emperor at best, so they are not a generation of gods at all! Milan thought for a moment and continued: "Regarding the goddess Gaia, in fact, there is also the system in ancient Greek mythology, which has many similarities with the Chinese mythological system. In particular, the contrast between Gaia's and Nuwa's eras has led many theologians to believe that the two gods are actually the same god. ”

"Huh?" Liu Chang swallowed the meat and sat up.

"There are two most famous legends about Gaia - one is the legend of the creation of man, and the other is the legend of the flood. Do you remember the legend of Nuwa mending the sky? ”

"Well, I probably remember, isn't it because of some evil dragon or some evil god or something, there is a big hole in the sky, and since then the world has been flooded continuously, and then Nuwa can't bear to see the disasters in the world, so she uses colorful divine stones to make up for the sky." Liu Chang thought about it for a moment, "Probably so, right?" ”

"Well, the legend is that Gonggong knocked down Buzhou Mountain, which caused the flood beast attack, and Nuwa saw that the human people she created died unexpectedly, so there is a legend to mend the sky." Milan said: "And the legend of Gaia is surprisingly similar to that of Nuwa. It was also the gods who sent down their wrath and exterminated humanity with the flood, and Gaia, after the flood receded, couldn't bear to see the fate of human extinction, so he sent down his divine power and let the two only survivors of the human race fabricate humans out of clay. ”

"Clay to create a man?" Liu Chang glared, "Damn, this Gaia plagiarized Nuwa, right?" ”

"I don't know, the history of Greece is not shorter than that of China, and it is separated by thousands of years, and there was no exchange of civilizations at that time, so how can you plagiarize?" Milan pouted, "But in ancient Greek mythology, there are indeed many similarities with China. And when it comes to Gaia, I have to say the vial of life in her hand......"

Milan spoke, looking at the pervasive red mist around her.

"Legend has it that Gaia had a divine bottle in her hand, filled with the seed of all things and the water of life, and every once in a while, she would pour the fountain of life and the seed of all things on the ground to ensure the reproduction of life."

"What a sharp legend!" Liu Chang also looked at the red mist around him and used the description "sharp".

"Well, sharp legends." Milan nodded.

"However, myths are myths after all, don't say I don't believe it, even if I believe it, I don't think I will have anything to do with the great god Gaia in this life." Liu Chang smiled and ate a bite of meat, the pain in his body was relieved a little, and continued: "Then since we have finished talking about Gaia, let's talk about what Gaia's consciousness is, right?" ”

"Well, since Gaia is the god of the earth, then Gaia's consciousness is naturally the consciousness of the earth, also known as the earth consciousness. It seems to have been proposed by an Englishman, and I have forgotten what it was called, but he proposed it anyway. Milan pieced together his scattered knowledge and said, "He pointed out that the earth, or the universe, has an unconscious self-consciousness. He will continue to create a stable state, and give severe punishment for things that disrupt stability and balance, such as the extinction of dinosaurs in the past, such as sandstorms and ozone holes caused by human destruction of the environment. Balance, and stability, are at the heart of Gaia's consciousness. And his argument is that the laws of nature are infallible, and balance and stability are the things that the goddess Gaia guards, so this theory is called Gaia consciousness. ”

"Is it all about balance?"

"Yes, it's balance." Milan thought for a moment, and then said: "Actually, if you think about it, there is really no species on the earth that can dominate all the time. In fact, according to the theory of biological evolution, the more powerful the creature, the more resources it should get, the faster it should reproduce, and the more it should crowd out the living space of other species - such as the dinosaurs in the past, such as the human beings now. ”

"But in fact, there are always problems on this planet that interfere with or even destroy the reproduction of these powerful species. Everything that upsets the balance seems to have gone extinct very suddenly. In fact, if it weren't for the extinction of the dinosaurs, humans would not have been possible now. ”

"I remember when I was in biology class, the teacher said a question, it seems to say that dinosaurs were 60 million years ago, but in fact, in the final stage, velociraptor was still some kind of dragon, it had evolved into intelligence, they had language communication skills, and they had a sense of teamwork. According to this direction, it will definitely be able to reach the current level of human beings in less than 5 million years, or even 3 million years, but it will be so inexplicable, suddenly, and somehow, it will become extinct. ”

"I don't believe in the theory that a shit meteorite hit the earth, and what is the theory of a million volcanoes erupting, if this theory exists, then it would be too coincidental, right?"

"What you're trying to convey is that this is the result of the self-regulation of Gaia's consciousness?" Liu Chang frowned.

"Well, it's possible, so it's kind of interesting to talk about the theory of Gaia's consciousness." Milan spoke, asking, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”

"It's because someone suddenly brought it up." Liu Chang didn't hide what he saw and heard today, "It's the word that suddenly popped up by the partner of the white monster today, it's a very perverted guy, very, very smart, a hundred times smarter than all of us combined." Today when I was fighting that white monster, the guy suddenly jumped up and said something Gaia consciousness or something, I guess this is the most important reason why they left suddenly later. ”

"Gaia consciousness, Gaia consciousness......" Milan muttered under his breath, "is he talking about this phenomenon of red fog now?" ”

"Impossible, he suddenly jumped up and said, this red mist has been appearing for a few years, what theory should there be, it's just, he should have known it a long time ago." Liu Chang frowned and thought, "Who in this world can make No. 17 so shocked?" ”

"What is it?" Liu Chang thought for a long time, and the only reasonable explanation was, "Could it be a big willow tree?" What's wrong over there? ”

"Big Willow?" Hearing the word big willow, Milan was shocked, and the girl standing in the corner of the wall showed doubts, "What is a big willow?" ”

"A monster that devours the world." This is the explanation given by Milan, she insisted on following Liu Chang because she heard about the big willow tree before, and now she looks at the girl and asks, I don't know if it is intentional or unintentional, but it is to reveal the news to her, "A very huge plant, according to the person in front of you, that monster has infinite intelligence, the ability to devour all organic matter, and the volume that is huge enough to cover a city or even a province." ”

"Really?" The girl heard Milan's explanation and grew her mouth in surprise.

"Of course it's true, your red-skinned monster brother and that white-skinned monster brother, how could such a powerful guy be chased to run here, don't you feel very puzzled?" Milan winked at the girl.

And Liu Chang laughed when he heard Milan's words, "You are really a kind-hearted woman!" ”

"Well, this girl isn't bad." Milan smiled at Liu Chang, "If you can help, you can help, and doesn't she still have the ability to mutate, if you become friends, it is also a good choice." ”

Milan said this, and winked at the girl again.

And the latter saw this look and understood that she was not a stupid girl, so after she figured out the joints, she immediately walked to Liu Chang with a well-behaved expression.

"Uh, it was my fault before, I apologize to you." The girl smiled coquettishly at Liu Chang, "I think we can be friends, especially at this moment, I can be your strong partner, can't I?" ”

"You want me to take you away, don't you?" Liu Chang looked at the girl.

"Well, in fact, I can't bear to be a little affectionate, and I can't be reluctant to be a little affectionate, I have very good eyesight, in fact, my eyesight is two hundred meters away, and I lied to you before." The girl looked at Liu Chang, "Although I can see that your eyesight is also very good, if it is less than a hundred meters, it is very troublesome in the air." Because nowadays, all big trees can grow tens of meters, so it is difficult for your eyesight to see the ground in the air, and it is difficult to distinguish the difference between trees and trees, which is very troublesome. ”

"Of course, if you take me with you, these things will be settled." The girl introduced herself like a salesman selling goods, "And I'm small, I don't eat much, and I don't occupy anything." I'm alone, not too crowded. ”

"If you don't speak, I'll take your consent, let me introduce myself first, my name is Li Tiantian."
