Chapter 169: The Lost History
What Professor Sun said made me very puzzled..
Judging from what he meant, he had read many classics of Honglu people.
The Honglu people are the savages on the island. I also visited a destroyed savage tribe, but I didn’t find any classics.
Judging from the appearance of these savages, there are very few people who know writing. Whether there is one or two tribes is a problem.
In other words, even if these savages have any classics, they should have very few. Where did Professor Sun look at so many of them?
I couldn't help asking him this question.
After hearing this, Professor Sun smiled at me: "Young man, you are right. These savages on the island are indeed Honglu tribes, but what you don't know is that Honglu people are not only on this deserted island! In addition to being Honglu people, they are also called Hongren and Lu people, and their origins are far longer than you think. Forty thousand years ago, even at the end of the Pleistocene, Hongren and Lu people were already active in all parts of the world. We have found their remains on at least three continents..."
In the Pleistocene tens of thousands of years ago, wasn’t that when humans were just born?
At that time, were they active all over the world?
I was so surprised that I couldn't speak.
Professor Sun's words also reminded me of many other details.
This isolated island has many ancient flora and fauna.
Like bag lions and other ferns, they are living fossils that have survived for tens of thousands of years.
I vaguely feel that all this seems to have some connection.
Why are these ancient creatures preserved on this isolated island?
Will this be related to the final secret on the island?
I really wanted to continue asking, but Eve held my hand and stopped me.
I understand, I'm afraid the next thing is another secret I shouldn't have known.
Professor Sun also felt a little confused, so he shut up and looked at the pillar paintings more attentively.
Ben, he just read those ancient paintings and was fascinated by it. Then he didn't check it for a while and said something he shouldn't say.
Professor Sun continued to look at the column paintings, while the rest of us began a brief rest and adjustment.
However, I couldn't calm down and I was still thinking about Professor Sun's words.
The so-called Pleistocene is divided from the perspective of earth's history. There was a more famous name in that era, called the Glacier Age.
And if divided according to human history, this period is also called the Paleolithic Age.
I have heard a long time ago that humans at that time may have had complex cultures and languages. However, there is not much information published by the outside world.
The birth of human beings has gone through millions of years, among which early apes, Homo erectus (late apes) and early Homo sapiens can be said to have a low intelligence level and it is impossible to leave any rich culture.
However, about 40,000 years ago, the late Homo sapiens appeared, and the modern race, were almost no different from that of modern people, and they were very likely to create a splendid culture.
Many legendary lost civilizations, such as the city that disappeared from the sea, Atlantis, etc., all come from that ancient era without historical records.
Our Chinese civilization with historical records is only more than 5,000 years at most. What happened in the remaining 35,000 years? What are the secrets?
Unexpectedly, the wild people on this island have such a long history, and the temple on the top of the snow-capped mountain is probably extremely long history, at least ten thousand years!
The underground palace where we are now should be built later than the temple on the top of the mountain, but it is definitely very old. This heavy history almost makes me feel a little breathless.
What exactly is buried in this ancient underground palace? Why do these people persevere and have to find it just as if they are desperate? They have been one after another. From World War II to now, I don’t know how many people have died, but I still refuse to give up!
My heart became more and more curious.
Curiosity is like a devil, beginning to hold onto my heart tightly. I think one day, it may take me on the wrong path...
Finally, after Professor Sun finished reading the Zhuhua, he seemed to have learned some amazing news and became very excited.
However, because of my existence, he couldn't tell me what he found, and his face suddenly turned redder.
Finally, I was driven to the corner of the hall by Catherine, and Professor Sun and the others began to gather together, chattering and talking.
Because it was too far apart, even if my ears were extremely sensitive, I couldn't hear them clearly. Their voices kept ringing in my ears like mosquitoes, which made me feel very depressed.
And just in this irritability, I noticed that there were some mottled and fallen paintings on the walls on the edge of the hall.
I couldn't help but calm down and looked carefully for a while.
However, not long after, I felt a pain in my mind and had to stop. Because these murals were too abstract and blurry, I was not a professional archaeology. I was confused by these things and felt that the painting level of ancient savages was just like their civilization, and they developed in a mess.
But just when I was extremely disappointed, the corners of my eyes suddenly lit up and I swept into an abnormality!
The climate in this hall is severely cold, and the walls around it are covered with thin ice. The ice layer is very shallow, like a layer of ice film, and the distribution is quite even.
At this moment, I was surprised to find that there was a small piece of ice that seemed much thicker than other places.
This seems a little strange.
I looked carefully for a while and couldn't help but feel lifted up.
It turns out that the ice layer here is not thicker than other places, but a brick protrudes out of the walls of this place.
I reached out and touched for a while and then I was sure that the protruding brick could be pulled out. I fumbled it carefully and suddenly felt something hidden behind the brick and stone!
I looked up at Catherine and the others, and made sure that no one noticed me at this moment. I was paying attention to the matter of Zhuhua. I immediately moved quietly, blocked their sight, and pulled out the protruding brick with my back to them!
After the brick was pulled away, a confined space was revealed, with an iron box and a note!
I had difficulty clamping out the two things with my fingers.
But I saw that the small iron box was a rectangle, a bit like a harmonica box. And I don’t know how many years it has been left here, and it has been covered with yellow and green rust.
As for the small piece of paper, it was frozen into a straight piece, and it was written in beautiful English: "Dedicated to Angelia."
