Chapter 972 Murals
The dean's voice was full of joy. He never expected to find murals from the previous civilizations of this world in this cave by accident. But if it is a coincidence, it is not entirely a coincidence. The location of this cave is relatively Well, the entrance and exit are higher than the ground, free from rainwater, insects and ants, and ventilated and dry. Thinking back to the ruins I encountered in the forest before, I can guess that there may be a gap between this cave and those ruins. There is a great connection, maybe those intelligent creatures built the ruins during the day, and returned to this cave to rest at night-of course, it is more likely that this cave is for supervisors and other executives to rest, and ordinary people can't enjoy it Such a treat.

If this conjecture is true, then there may be other traces in this cave that can prove that intelligent creatures lived here.

Jiang Chanji was also very curious, so he moved to the side to look at it by the light of the torch. There was no difference between day and night in the cave, and he had to use artificial light to see clearly.

The reading order of the murals starts from the position close to the entrance of the cave, and it is actually a colored version. Because the environment in the cave is stable, there is no sun and rain, and the color does not peel off much. Even if there is a little peeling, it does not affect the reading very much, but Even if you can see it clearly, you may not be able to understand the meaning conveyed in the murals accurately, because the painting style of the murals is very primitive, even abstract, and you often have to guess. Neither of them specializes in prehistoric culture. of.

But when he saw the first picture, he immediately understood the meaning of the picture, because the picture showed two groups of people confronting each other, and a huge haloed sphere appeared between them. As little Pasinkova told him, if this is not a hallucination caused by them eating poisonous mushrooms, or purely mythological imagination, then it is very likely that when the Homo sapiens and the ape-man were engaged in the final decisive battle, there happened to be a monster nearby. "aisle".

Based on this, the second picture is easier to understand. One wave of people was shocked by the "passage", while the other wave of people bravely entered the "passage"-obviously the latter is the ape-man, and this picture is They are putting gold on their faces and trying to promote historical nihilism, but the reality is that they are forced to die and survive.

The third picture is that they came to this planet and started to kill each other. The background of this picture is more complicated. There is an arc-shaped rainbow-shaped object in the sky, which is probably the iconic star ring in the sky. Below the ring are several oval objects with tentacles floating in the air.

Due to his preconceived notions, Jiang Chanji thought that after they came to this planet, some of the apes lost their minds. At least the other apes were fine. Maybe they guessed the reason, so they no longer dared to look at the floating lanterns.Cannibalism caused a lot of damage to them, but fortunately, the part of the apes who lost their minds, even if they were insane, could still... give birth after being captured alive. In short, they struggled to take root on this planet.

The pictures in the back are more about them singing their own praises. Obviously, they only built a few low stone ruins, which feel as amazing as building a pyramid, and their struggle against the beasts of this world. Jiang Chanji is interested in these Not much, because it is too abstract and sloppy, and it is impossible to see what kind of beast they are fighting with. He mainly wants to know how they perish in the end. Of course, he guesses that he has little hope, after all, they cannot predict their own fate. When the building is about to collapse, I don't have the mind to come here to paint again.

In fact, these ape-men were not born at the right time, and finally escaped from the hands of Homo sapiens. However, this world is far more weird and terrifying than the earth. If you change to another planet, they may have established a quite brilliant civilization...Of course This is nothing to be regretful about. Considering the vastness of the universe, the number of such intelligent creatures and civilizations that died halfway is countless. If he really wants to mourn for them one by one, he will stop doing other things and can only blame them. bad luck.

"Look here, whether they are building or fighting wild beasts, they are all in the forest, which proves that they also find that hiding in the forest can avoid being lost by floating lanterns." The dean pointed out the details in the painting.

"But what happened to the temple we saw for the first time? Isn't that on the grassland?" he asked.

The head of the school was also puzzled by this, and guessed: "Maybe it's the sea? When they were built, it wasn't a grassland?"

He thought it made sense, but he was too lazy to guess. He skipped these praiseworthy things and continued to look back, and unexpectedly found that the background had changed. Floating lantern.

"Is this water surface a bit strange?" The dean pointed out, "They painted water before, and they always drew ripples, but on this water surface, they replaced it with a well-shaped shape? I guess the water surface is frozen? The planet's The climate has changed drastically and entered the Ice Age, so the floating lanterns disappeared? Or at least the number is greatly reduced?"

Jiang Chanji nodded frequently, agreeing with the dean's guess. He didn't expect this drawing method to mean that the water surface was frozen. He thought it was dry water surface, but if it was dry, it should be sunken.

The head of the school was shocked and murmured: "This is the reason why there have been no 'channels' on the earth for nearly 2000 years? It seems that the 'channels' are more closely related to floating lanterns than I imagined." ...when the floating lanterns disappeared, the 'channels' no longer opened...now that the Ice Age is over, they have ruled the planet again."

Jiang Chanji thought that according to You Qisi, these floating lanterns should be the brain cells of the planet's consciousness. If they all froze to death during the ice age, wouldn't it mean that the planet had amnesia?Thinking about it more carefully, in the long history of a planet, it often experiences such extreme climate changes dozens of times. When these changes occur, do most of the floating lanterns die, or do they hide somewhere?

It is a pity that this answer cannot be found in the murals. These apes have no planes, high-speed trains, and short life spans. The boundaries they can reach in their lifetime are also extremely limited. They have seen the changes in the world, but they do not understand the reasons for the changes. They only know The floating lanterns disappeared, and the weather became harsh and cold. They thought that the gods had abandoned them, so they went to the grassland to build a temple dedicated to the floating lanterns, and prayed that the floating lanterns would appear again. This is probably their mental journey.
