Chapter 789: Square Machine

After the matter was said, he sighed and remembered a little, and the one with the same expression as him was the patriarch Tuoshan.

Wood led Chen Mo to a large shelf, lifted the animal skin wrapped on it, and a laser transmitter and gun came into Chen Mo's eyes, which were made of metal.

"Sir, you should know what this is, right? This is the machine left by our ancestors of the Shanshan tribe. There were many in the past, but then it was gradually lost. The machine on your body is the first time I have seen it except these. Mechanically, it is somewhat similar to what the ancestral records describe."

Chen Mo asked the battle armor to scan and restore the structure of the "weapon" left by the Barbarian tribe. It is different from the guns of the earth in terms of design, but the functions are similar. It is a gun, but there is no ammunition, and the small laser has no energy.

The level of this weapon is quite the craft level of Earth civilization.

Seeing that Chen Mo was studying the machine carefully, Mu took off the translator and gave it to Tuoshan, motioning him to introduce it.

"This is actually related to the history of our ancestors, as well as the history of our barbarian people. According to records, our ancestors originally lived on a peaceful planet. Later, a disaster on that planet was no longer suitable for habitation, and our ancestors began to plan migration. There are many teams, and our ancestors were one of them, after five hundred years of flight, they finally arrived on this planet."

Tuoshan sighed and continued to speak.

"Ancestors recorded that seven hundred years ago, during their migration, they encountered an accident in the sky. They called it the 'space vortex'. After our migrating team fell into the space vortex, they arrived here. Two million people migrated. The team, after five hundred years and various disasters, came here with only 50,000 people left."

Tuoshan's voice was a little low, as if he was opening an ancient history book.

Jing Ge and Tuoli were attracted by him, and Chen Mo also listened carefully. He needed to find clues about this place from these histories.

"But the disaster did not end. The remaining 50,000 people were lucky and found a planet. But when they arrived on this planet, they discovered that the environment here is different from the planet where their ancestors lived.

Weak scholars and intellectuals all died, and only thousands of highly trained warriors survived, and that was the beginning of an unfortunate event. Soldiers are not proficient in technology and knowledge, and there is a fault in the inheritance of cultural knowledge. At first, I wanted to rely on the spacecraft's machines to maintain knowledge inheritance. Later, the spacecraft broke down and was completely scrapped because of high technical requirements and did not understand maintenance. "

Chen Mo can imagine that kind of situation.

A person from a planet with not too much gravity,

It suddenly landed on a planet with five times the gravity, and the weak body could not bear it at all.

In the case of a small number of people, the cultural knowledge gap is terrifying.

This means that their civilization is deteriorating.

"The ancestors realized that the crisis was coming, and without the support of technology, on this planet with a harsh living environment, they were weak and would sooner or later become extinct. The urgency of extinction forced the ancestors to use the only remaining technology to solve this problem. .

But it is more serious in the back. The surviving ancestors, after the women are pregnant, cannot withstand the environment here, and may even endanger their lives. Even the offspring born are still dead babies. It is impossible to continue the race. "

"How did you solve this problem later?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"Ancestors found some indigenous people on this planet. The indigenous people have low intelligence, but their bodies and characteristics are similar, and they are the same species. In the end, the ancestors compromised and merged with the indigenous women, so we have our barbarian mountain tribe. Inherited the intelligence of our ancestors. and the physique of the indigenous ancestors, the intelligence is normal, and the physique can resist the living environment here.

The continuation of the crisis was resolved, and the population began to increase, but the gap in knowledge became more and more severe. Technological fault, with the exhaustion of energy, some machinery began to be scrapped, although the ancestors recorded all the knowledge they knew before they died. However, the situation that the loss of knowledge is becoming more and more serious cannot be changed, and the loss of machinery is also intensifying.

Seven hundred years ago, after many disasters and migrations, the only remaining knowledge is the knowledge recorded by these ancestors on fur and wooden books. Fortunately, the inheritance of words has not been broken. Now we can only learn from these reserved knowledge to understand the world, but its role is limited. We know a lot of profound knowledge and words, but we cannot understand and interpret them. "

Tuoshan couldn't help sighing, and he was burdened with heavy worries.

Jing Ge and Tuoli stopped talking. Although Tuoli was small, he understood what his grandfather said.

"The ones screened out through this natural environment are all powerful warriors. Their ability to learn knowledge is not so strong, and the more profound knowledge is passed on, the less and less. All that can be preserved is some basic truths and the truth of heaven and earth, at least leaving a little hope for future generations. If one day, these words and knowledge are lost, the wisdom of our ancestors will completely disappear."

Chen Mo understands that the fault of civilization is very uncomfortable, and the efforts and knowledge of countless ancestors disappeared because of the fault of civilization. Just like the Mayan civilization and other ancient civilizations on the earth, they encountered faults and eventually died out.

No wonder there are traces of mechanical civilization, and the Barbarians are still using primitive cold weapons.

After hundreds of years of interstellar migration, all personnel with advanced technology and energy technology have died, and the machines have been scrapped due to malfunctions. With only a few thousand people left, it is admirable to be able to gain a firm foothold and multiply in this extreme environment, keep growing, and retain the most basic knowledge and text inheritance of civilization.

"Have your ancestors said, where is this place?" Chen Mo asked.

Chen Mo is a little confused now. He is a lost traveler. He needs to determine where this place is. Tuoshan talked about the history of the Manshan tribe, but it did not help Chen Mo to understand this spatial location.

"No." Tuoshan shook his head.

"However, there is a very important thing that has been passed down." Mu learned about Chen Mo's question, remembered an important item, hurriedly walked to a wooden cabinet, and carefully took out a large bag wrapped in fur. Box.

He took the translator from Takusan and put it on, and Mu began to introduce it seriously.

"This is something that our ancestors told us to pass down. It is said that it records the materials of the ancestor's civilization, and there are many important materials that can be used when the civilization is revived in the future."

Wood carefully opened the box.

The box was opened, and a square machine appeared in Chen Mo's field of vision, looking like a Rubik's Cube.

The square machine is well protected and has no signs of damage. It is a machine such as a storage computer mainframe, full of metal, and a lens similar to projection. The craftsmanship is very high, and it has the technical level when Chen Mo left the earth.

Chen Mo looked at it carefully and guessed that it might be something like a microcomputer. If so, Chen Mo will have a chance to find some clues about this space from here.

Originally thought this was a primitive planet, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest.

"Can you give me a try?" Chen Mo pointed at the square machine and asked.

Tuoshan and Mu discussed in a low voice for a while, and finally made up their minds and nodded in unison.

Their family waited too long, and since the energy technology fault, this thing has never been turned on again. Now that they meet Chen Mo, a foreigner, and they can feel that Chen Mo is not malicious, this is an opportunity for them to restore the inheritance of civilization.

Even if this thing is precious, they want Chen Mo to try it, otherwise there is no hope.
