Chapter 72 Sandman?

Chapter 120: Sandman?
The wind and sand condensed, and in the astonished eyes of Ye Yang and Yi Pofeng, a pillar of sand slowly condensed from the sand dune, and its shape was constantly changing.

In the end, a humanoid 'sand sculpture' nearly three meters high appeared in front of the three of them.

"This..." Both Ye Yang and Yi Pofeng didn't know why.

"Oh, Thor, my old friend." The sand sculpture actually spoke!

Although its English sounded quite broken, the meaning could still be heard clearly.It's just that the sand sculpture spoke, which is really sensational...

"Your perception is still as sharp as before." Thor stepped forward, looked at the tall sand sculpture, and said with a smile.

The sand sculpture nodded and looked at the two young men behind Thor: "I'm here this time to train these two little guys, right?"

Thor smiled and said, "Not bad."

"Well... But the Lingshaguo clan values ​​it very much. You got one because you gained the respect of the whole clan. These two little guys..." The humanoid sand sculpture shook his head: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. "

"Let's wait and see." Thor shrugged indifferently.

"But it's just a good time for you to come." Gao Dasha sculpture said in a deep voice.

"What's wrong?" Hearing the sand sculpture's low tone, Thor felt something was wrong.

"Hey... Follow me to the Sand tribe first, the King of Sand will be very happy to see our old friends from back then." The sand sculpture waved his hand, and a flash of spiritual light merged into the sand under the feet of the three of Ye Yang. The three-foot-long sand boat appeared out of thin air.

The human-shaped sand sculpture melted into the sand again in Ye Yang's eyes, as if it had never been there before.

Just when Ye Yang was about to ask, the sand boat moved instantly, far faster than the speed of sound!
"This...sand can talk?" Ye Yang and Yi Pofeng were astonished. Although there are various heresies in human society today, they can all be explained by science. For example, the birth of superiors is the result of genetic modification surgery. As a result, all kinds of exotic flowers and plants and even animals are also the result of the leap in genetically modified technology, but intelligent life other than humans?Or a pile of sand?
Incredible.

"What's so strange." Thor said with a smile, "There are many things in this world that you don't know."

"This is an intelligent life... or a pile of... sand!" Ye Yang stared.

"Could it be that only human beings have wisdom?" Thor shook his head: "The earth is so big that all the continents add up to only [-]% of the earth's surface area, and human beings who claim to be the rulers of the world can control nothing more than Those cities, farms, and those things together are only one percent of the land area. Even if the cultivated land is counted, we have not fully controlled this land. For example, the Sahara Desert, in terms of area, is comparable to the United States, but How many humans are there in total? They just live on the edge of the Sahara."

Ye Yang thought about it carefully, what Thor said was indeed reasonable.

"In areas that are not suitable for human habitation but suitable for other species, many non-human intelligent life has existed in the evolution of the earth for billions of years." Raytheon said: "It's just that in this era, human beings are at the peak. That's all."

"Too many people use the accumulation of thousands of years of civilization to define the so-called facts of billions of years, and too many people speculate on the deep space of the universe counted in light years with the activity space of only a few thousand miles." Thor's eyes are deep: "We Maybe strong in this day and age, but we're by no means the only ones."

Ye Yang nodded. He suddenly remembered the strange questions that Wilson had asked during the interview. Two of them were: Do you believe in the existence of aliens?What guess do you have about the earth [-] million years ago?
"There are not a few members of the Sand people all over the world. They have a long lifespan, but it is difficult to produce offspring." Lei Shen said: "The Sahara is the largest tribal gathering area of ​​the Sand people."

"Sand man?" Ye Yang thought for a while, and it should be the life family that the sand sculpture belongs to.

"They rely on the aura of life to maintain their lives, condense the sand, and change endlessly." Thunder God said: "Every sandman is very strong, but if they leave the sand, they will weaken rapidly. Therefore, they gathered in the depths of the Sahara, and There is almost no intersection between human societies. The desert climate, which is extremely harsh to us, is no different from heaven to them.”

Thunder God's statement made Ye Yang feel illusory, but he also had a special sense of reality that he had never had before, especially after seeing the three-meter-tall sand man with his own eyes...

"In Arabic mythology, there are actually a lot of records about the Sandman. After all, with the ability of the Sandman, when humans were still in the ignorant period, they were completely called gods." Thor continued: "The reason why I brought you here, It is because they know how to communicate with nature innately, and use the aura of life to condense sand and soil. To them, sand and soil are like the flesh and blood that we humans rely on for survival. I hope that your trip to the Sandman Tribe will be worthwhile."

Ye Yang and Yi Po heard the rumors, and they both understood. When Ye Yang was a child, looking at the vast universe and starry sky, he also imagined that there were all kinds of strange creatures in this world, and even other intelligent life, perhaps in the distant alien.But now, he saw the non-human intelligent life standing in front of him alive, and living on the earth, parallel to human civilization.

The wind and sand roared, and in the blink of an eye, it swept across a large desert of sand dunes.

At the end of the field of vision, there is a large flat land of soft sand, but when the sand boat just rushed into this gentle land, the scene in Ye Yang's eyes changed instantly, a magnificent sand castle appeared out of thin air, countless roads were tall or It is a thin figure shuttling among them, like a giant city in the bustling sand.

However, the difference is that the people who shuttle in this sand city are all life forms made of sand and soil. Ye Yang can't understand what they communicate with each other. According to Lei Shen's explanation, the language spoken by the sand people and Arabic are of the same origin.

"Why did this city suddenly appear..." Ye Yang still couldn't understand the experience of a huge city suddenly popping up from what seemed to be an open space.

"Have you ever heard of a mirage?" Thor laughed: "The Sandman used their unique technology to create a stable, mirage-like visual illusion here."

"It turned out to be like this." Ye Yang exclaimed: "It's incredible, but are they avoiding something?"

"Human beings are now in the lead after all." Thunder God said: "It is difficult for intelligent civilizations to integrate. If the existence of the Sand People is exposed by some governments that always like to regard other civilizations as threats, the consequences will be disastrous."

"I see." Ye Yang nodded,
The sand boat traveled through the alien city that appeared in the dream of only a few hours, and slowly sailed towards the huge sandy pyramid in the center...
