Chapter 874 is outrageous

"This is also outrageous......" After listening to the explanation of the Demon King of the Mixed World, Liu Xu sat on the chair in a daze.

It is hard to believe that Westerners are actually the people of the technological world, and the fiasco of China in the face of the West in modern times is actually the reason for the failure of the desolate world.

The words of the Demon King of the Mixed World sound very outrageous, and he didn't dare to write the plot like this, but the problem is that all this can really correspond to the history of the earth.

Before Liu Xu crossed, there were two very interesting news.

The first is that a girl deliberately made up nearly 2 million words on the Internet in order to play a game, and the time span has reached hundreds of years of ancient Russian history, and no one has found it for two years, and it has even been cited by many domestic and foreign experts, including Russian experts and scholars.

Many people take this as a joke, but it exposes a very crucial question, that is, why has a history of so many words not been discovered for so long, and even some Russians themselves use it?

Of course, there is carelessness in this, but no matter how you think about it, it is still too bizarre. So is there such a possibility that the history of this period is originally a blank, so even if you stuff a piece of history of 2 million words and hundreds of years into it, as long as it does not conflict with the main line of history, it is difficult to find that there is a problem with this history?

For example, it is as if someone made up 2 million words of history of the Xia Dynasty on the Internet, as long as the names of the emperors and some major historical battles in this history are there, then no one can find that the 2 million words of the history of the Xia Dynasty are fake, because there is really not much recorded history of the Xia Dynasty, and the hundreds of years of time in it are blank.

Yes, this guess is correct, the reality is like this, the history of the whole of Russia 1400 years ago, that is, before they were invaded by MG, is basically a blank, except for the names of some kings and some historical events, there is nothing else, so even if it is stuffed into 2 million words by a girl, no one finds the problem, but almost writes some historical papers by themselves to be saved.

What's even more terrifying is that it's not just Russia, it's the whole West.

Before 1400, the history of the entire Western world was a large blank section, and it was not until after it was swept by MG that a complete and systematic historical record was handed down.

Some readers will feel outrageous when they see this, saying that how can those histories be blank, the ancient Roman Empire, ancient Greece, ancient Egypt, ancient Babylon or something, these are all large and large records in world history, why is it blank?

Then we will move on to the latter interesting news.

That is, a professor in China, when participating in an interview, said that it is not clear whether ancient Roman and Greek civilization exists, and it is very likely that YLSDD does not have this person, and then it caused a storm on the whole network, and for a period of time, almost all the media were debating the existence of YLSDD.

Liu Xu will not make a judgment here, after all, he himself is not sure whether YLSDD exists, but he knows one thing, that is, no one will argue about the existence of Confucius, and this is the core problem.

Professor Kim mentioned three major arguments in the program, and the last two arguments are not mentioned, but only the first argument, that is, before the 13th century, there was no such person as YLSDD in history, and he suddenly appeared after the 13th century.

Well, not to mention anything else, this point is indeed a reality, Liu Xu studies history, so he can pat his chest and guarantee that there is no YLSDD in the historical documents before the 13th century.

Why is Liu Xu so sure?

Because there is almost no conclusive carbon-14 identification in the West, written materials before the 13th century have been handed down.

I know this answer may sound outrageous, but it's true.

So why is there such an outrageous fact?

There are two reasons, one is that the West has not clicked on the scientific and technological tree of bamboo slips, and it is impossible to master the papermaking technology, so it is difficult for them to obtain a carrier that can stably circulate words.

Before the 13th century, there were only a few ways to leave a written word.

The first is the use of ancient Egyptian papyrus, from which almost all of the so-called pre-13th-century texts found in later generations were found.

But Liu Xu can say a violent argument here, that is, all the so-called ancient documents of papyrus are all fake, because this kind of paper will disperse as soon as the wind blows, and the water will be soft as soon as it is soaked, and it will be all gone in less than 10 years after being buried in the soil.

The simplest example, Huaxia invented papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but it could not find any ancient paper books before the Song Dynasty, because it really couldn't be kept, all of them were returned to nature, and only bamboo slips and tortoise shells could be handed down.

The second is the use of parchment, which is indeed highly preserved, and some of the most credible written materials before the 13th century are basically handed down from parchment.

But parchment is expensive to make, and if it is not preserved by special means, it will be ruined by time. Moreover, the parchment paper cannot be aged at all, it can only be slowly spent with time, and if future generations forge the parchment, then even the photos cannot be kept, otherwise a fool can see it.

In addition, there is a way to use stone carving, which is also very reasonable, but you can refer to the stone carvings found in China before the Tang Dynasty, and the words on it have been weathered into what they look like, and those stone carvings found in the West can be used as practice characters.

By the way, some people have also found clay tablets, and they have found hundreds of thousands of clay tablets with words, so I won't say much about this, something that will break when you pinch it, and whoever believes it will be sorry for their IQ.

All in all, there are very few written sources that can be found in the world at present, and which can be believed to be from before the 13th century.

In addition to this, there is also an extremely crucial thing, which is that Western civilization simply does not have the habit of systematically recording history.

As early as the Zhou Dynasty in China, there were already clearly recorded historians, who would record the major events in the world and then collect them in the storage room, and the famous Lao Tzu was the administrator of the storage room.

But the West has never had such a habit, their dynasty and country have never had officials who specifically record history, things have happened when they have happened, and they have passed when they have passed, and no one has ever recorded them.

In addition to this, the churches in the West are also very averse to the historians, or they are averse to everything that can make the people wise, everything that has the potential to challenge the rule of the gods.

This is the reason why it is difficult to find that the history of the West before the 13th century is basically blank, and the living standards of Westerners living in the early 13th century are basically the same as those of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China, in the Iron Age, and compared with China, which has developed a large number of firearms at that time, the gap in civilization is at least more than 1,000 years.

Otherwise, why does the West call the Middle Ages the Dark Middle Ages, because everything in the Middle Ages was black, and later people could not see the situation before the 13th century.

But that all changed with the arrival of MG.
