In fact, it is not that everyone has secretly speculated on the possibility that modern apes would hide in caves and underground, but what is needed now is not random speculation, but conclusive evidence. The anatomical basis provided by Eve is quite reliable evidence, at least. It's the only one they can get right now.

Jiang Chanji was deeply inspired, but this was not the time to feel emotional. He wanted to throw these corpses and stinky internal organs into the nearest lake to feed the fish, otherwise they would bring more trouble.

Eve was quite sorry because she had only cut open a few internal organs such as the heart, liver, and lungs, but had not yet had time to cut open the gastrointestinal and other digestive systems, nor had she had time to open the skulls of the corpses to see if there were any abnormalities in their brain structures. She could only use her mobile phone. He hurriedly took a few photos as evidence and let Jiang Chanji deal with the corpses. Anyway, as long as this war continues, there will definitely be more corpses in the foreseeable future.

Jiang Chanji took off with these mutilated corpses and fragmented internal organs, and the carrion-eating raptors hovering in the air followed him from a distance with salivation. It was not until he threw these pickled objects to the lake that they rushed to swoop down and fight with him. The strange fish leaping out of the water scrambled to tear these corpses into pieces.

After throwing it away, he quickly returned to the base, and then took Mio, Yuna and Eve back to the incubation room. Yuna filled all the free wooden pots with boiling hot water and hot rice, although Other food is extremely limited, but in this case there is no right to be picky. It is satisfying to have a hot meal.

Luisa also sent water and rice to the Black Panthers who were helping to guard the outside. Jiang Chanji and the others were embarrassed to have people on duty all the time and wanted to replace them, but Luisa said that they would not need it for the time being. They were used to life in the jungle. It is entirely possible to sleep with one eye open and let Jiang Chanji and the others take a good rest first.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Chanji briefly introduced Eve's findings during the anatomy, and Eve herself would tell more.

Eve showed everyone the photos of lung anatomy on her mobile phone - although many girls were afraid to look at them - and then told them in detail the history of the Berbers and the reasons why they live underground.

In the vast desert Gobi, if you want to survive, you must have water. Any river or oasis has either been famous for a long time, or it will also attract the covetousness of the strong. One of the Berber tribes is very interested in itself. They had a clear understanding that they did not want to participate in the disputes between strong men, so they separated from other Berbers and chose to run to the edge of the desert to live in seclusion.But what about water?It is also very simple. As long as you dig deep enough, you will definitely find water. Moreover, the Sahara Desert is too hot during the day and is not suitable for activities, but as long as you dig one or two meters under the sand, it will be enough to resist the heat. So they Dig a ten-meter-deep well, and then dig a residence around the well. They only come out in the evening, dawn and night, grazing or growing olives. They have lived like this for more than 1000 years - you know, during these 1000 years, historically, Countless nations with unparalleled brilliance have been born and disappeared, but they seem to be living humblely until now.

Eve also ran to seek refuge with the Berbers during the troubled times in the past. This is understandable, after all, there are only a few days of peace around the Sahara Desert, but she actually knows the Berber lungs Similar to the lungs of these two modern apes, both have signs of pneumoconiosis, which means... She has probably dissected Berber corpses, but she did not explain this part. Jiang Chanji and the others They didn't ask. What a person did in ancient times may not be in line with modern moral standards, but Eve is now their reliable companion, and that's enough.

Everyone agreed with Eve's judgment. During the Ice Age thousands of years ago, at least one small team of ancient apes who went out to explore crossed the Narrow Sea and ran to another continent that was warmer, and then chose to live in caves.

This may be a very wise choice for them. First, it can resist the falling temperature and the ice line that continues to move south. Second, it can avoid the beasts running rampant on the ground. Third, it no longer has to succumb to floating lanterns and The rule of the planet's will, maybe the planet's will thought that they had all frozen to death... Even when the ice age ended and the earth recovered, they did not completely return to the ground. Except for necessary hunting, they spent most of their time Living underground, their bodies gradually undergo some changes. They no longer need hair to protect themselves from the cold, resulting in less hair. The cramped underground space makes them accustomed to hunched over. Long-term digging in the soil makes their limbs and trunks stronger. , the dim light underground makes them always have to keep their eyes open to see their surroundings clearly... all of this is in line with the evolutionary law of use it or lose it.

Breathing with the lungs cannot be changed in thousands of years. Unlike the Berbers living in the dry Gobi desert, the soil of Noah's planet is not that dry, at least the southern continent is not that dry. Therefore, the underground space where cave dwellers live is not dry. The well-developed plant root system is likely to penetrate tens or even hundreds of meters into the soil. A humid environment can easily breed mold and be inhaled into the lungs. The average life span is not Gao, these are the prices that modern apes have to pay. If they were not hostile to each other, their hard life would definitely arouse the sympathy of Jiang Chanji and others.

No matter how difficult the conditions were, the Berbers survived, and so did the modern ape-men, but the latter's situation was more cruel and their life span was shorter than the former's. This determines that their survival depends not only on luck and hard work, but also on Most of it depends on iron-blooded will and discipline, but who doesn’t yearn for a free life with vast seas and sky?When they have the opportunity to return to the ground again, such as at this moment, the biggest threat, the floating lantern, has been paralyzed, they will not miss it, and are even willing to gamble on the fate of the country for this.

To be honest, if they were in trouble, Jiang Chanji and the others might make the same decision, so that the God-given opportunity would not be missed again... However, they could have walked out of the underground cave openly, Noah The stars are so vast and desolate that they can coexist with humans. If they come out openly and reveal their identities to Jiang Chanji and others, they will not do anything to them, and may even provide them with selfless help within their capabilities to help them enter. A new era of civilization and enlightenment. After all, they are all well-educated and civilized people, and they are not white colonists who have just arrived in the American continent.

But unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now. Since they harmed the members of the base, it means that this battle for the dominance of the planet that started tens of thousands of years ago and continues from the earth to Noah's star is destined to not enjoy peace. The happy ending, the harsh environment and the iron-blooded discipline are likely to leave only hatred, anger and fear in the hearts of modern ape-men. The concept of "having a solid barn and knowing etiquette, and having enough food and clothing to know honor and disgrace" is still too far away from them. And Jiang Chanji and the others still don't know what role the Queen Bee plays in it, but it's definitely not a glorious role.
