Chapter 867: Scar of the Sky

After the victory of mankind, internal disputes began.

Homo sapiens eliminated all species that could threaten them. The scenes of the past when hundreds of races united and agreed to overthrow the ancient gods, and then share the world and live in peace, imagining a better life in the future, seemed to have become a joke.

Of course, this is also the speculation of future generations. The rebels don't ask about this kind of thing, and Mo Qiong and David won't say much.

Chisong asked about Kuafu, and David also said: Kuafu died in the mythology by chasing the sun.

Of course, the rebels would not be stupid enough to question Kuafu's IQ. They would also interpret the mythology and heard that there was such a myth.

Chisong said bitterly: "You have passed down such a myth, which means that Kuafu was destroyed by the ancient gods."

Because the sun represented gods in their era, all the sun gods in all myths today are based on ancient gods.

"Alas." After hearing the cruelty of the final battle and the legend of Kuafu chasing the sun, the rebels only thought that all races other than Homo sapiens were exterminated by the ancient gods.

"It doesn't matter. If the creation stone pillar is still there, I can still create my own race." Bingyi said.

Moqiong's eyes lit up. Many of the human race in the creation stone pillar need special substances. Taifeng has those special substances!

So even if only a few can be created, at least they are not extinct.

Of course, those special humans are not that strong.

The ancient rebels were strong because they had no taboos and no worries about affecting the normal rational life of humans, because they had no stable life at all.

But in terms of knowledge, they may not be as strong as the blue and white members.

Although a highly developed civilization once emerged in the era of rebels, because of the war with the ancient gods, they had no chance of stable development. Any large-scale city would soon be hit by high-energy strikes from the sky, so they could only be passed down in the form of a family.

Mohenjo-daro, which was destroyed by nuclear fusion energy, and Sodom, known as the city of demons, were actually the crystallization of human wisdom in the past.

However, after a slight rise, they were beaten back to their original form.

From 15,000 years ago to 9,000 years ago, the technology tree of mankind was actually constantly destroyed and reborn in the flames of war, and it was impossible to develop properly.

After communicating with the Emperor's daughter Sang and others, Mo Qiong found that their knowledge was seriously biased.

They knew the composition of molecules, the conversion relationship between mass and energy, electricity, magnetism, and gravity very well, and knew more than people in Newton's time.

But in mathematics, they didn't even know pi.

Mechanical engineering was extremely poor, and they didn't even know how to make the simplest wheel.

This bias was also caused by the social environment at that time.

Only useful knowledge facing the ancient gods and the containment objects will be carried forward.

And a lot of knowledge is also summarized by peeping using the ability of the containment objects.

For example, knowledge at the microscopic level... They can't even make wheels, let alone microscopes. But some people can perceive the microscopic world and summarize many of its principles, such as the Three-Eyed Green Emperor, who has a microscopic sense.

That is to say, some strange sites handed down from ancient times, such as the super-huge Derinkuyu underground city, Mohenjo-daro that suffered a nuclear explosion, and the Gobekli Tepe 13,000 years ago, cannot represent the overall level of human beings at that time.

In fact, they are just special cases, built by non-technical means.

The purpose of building them is not necessarily practical. After all, in the containment war, all kinds of strange behaviors are possible.

In general, the Blue and White Society is much stronger than the rebels of the past.

Unknowingly, night fell, and a bright moon rose high in the black starry sky.

"Huh?" Seeing the bright moon, the rebels couldn't help but be stunned.

Mo Qiong said in surprise: "You don't know the moon, do you?"

Emperor Sang said blankly: "The moon?"

Seeing her like this, the members were all confused. The era of Emperor Sang and others was about the end of the rebellious war, that is, 8,000 to 9,000 years ago.

Was there no moon at that time? Impossible!

Chisong suddenly realized, "Sang, this is Tianque!"

"Tianque? Oh!" The emperor's daughter Sang suddenly realized and seemed to recognize the moon.

The other rebels also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, this is Tianque, it's so small, I almost didn't recognize it."

Small? In fact, the moon is moving away from the earth every year, but the magnitude is not large.

According to this magnitude, tens of millions of years ago, the moon may be so large that it almost covers one-third of the starry sky.

But that was tens of millions of years ago after all. There shouldn't be obvious changes nine thousand years ago, right? The moon is only a circle larger than it is now, right?

After recognizing the moon, the rebels looked solemn and bowed respectfully to the moon, as if to express some kind of respect.

"In your time, was the moon, or the Tianque you mentioned, very big?" Mo Qiong asked.

The rebels all nodded and said, "Of course it was big. At that time, the top strong men climbed to the top of Mount Buzhou and could directly attack the surface of Tianque."

"What?"

Mo Qiong was surprised. How could it be so close?

"How high is Mount Buzhou?" Mo Qiong asked.

The imperial daughter Sang gestured and pointed out the distance between the two places for comparison. Mo Qiong was stunned when he estimated: "Five... fifty kilometers?"

Fifty kilometers high, that would have pierced the stratosphere.

The highest mountain in the solar system is on Mars, which is only twenty-one kilometers high.

There is a fifty-kilometer mountain on Earth, how could there be no trace left?

"Buzhou Mountain is not a mountain, it is a thick and big pillar, it looks like it goes straight into the sky. Compared with the mountain range, it has no slopes and ridges, so it is called Buzhou Mountain. The place where the ancient gods built to live is also called the pillar of heaven, and the highest point is called the 'zenith'. The ancient gods lived on the zenith and overlooked the world." said the imperial daughter Sang.

Mo Qiong murmured: "Why is it gone again?"

The rebels said in unison: "It was used to repair the sky."

After some explanation, Mo Qiong knew what the sky repair was about.

After the outbreak of the rebellious war, the ancient gods and the rebellious species suffered heavy casualties, and the environment of the earth was also hit extremely badly. There were continuous fires everywhere and glaciers melted.

It is the fire that burns and never extinguishes, and the water is vast and endless.

At this time, the ancient gods and the powerful rebellious species such as the dragon clan at that time observed a huge comet that would hit the earth in the near future.

There is no doubt that the terrifying power of the comet's impact will destroy all species on the surface.

So the ancient gods were happy, yo! Natural disaster!

They just ignored it and gathered on another life planet: Zhixing.

Zhixing was originally the main battlefield at that time, and the earth was incidental. Unexpectedly, there was a comet impact, so the ancient gods gave up the earth and concentrated on dealing with the rebellion of Zhixing, and waited for the comet to destroy the rebellion of the earth.

At that time, the leaders of the rebellion war were the dragons and other creatures made by powerful templates, and humans were only in the middle and lower reaches.

Only Fuxi and Nuwa had nine senses and could barely join the leadership.

After learning about the comet impact, a large number of top rebels finally decided to abandon the earth and go to Zhixing to fight the ancient gods.

After all, the comet was too big and fast. Even if it was barely passed by with various containment objects, it would have an extremely bad and far-reaching impact on the earth.

More importantly, the ancient gods could not let them resist this natural disaster with peace of mind. No matter what means they used to resist, the ancient gods would definitely interfere.

If they stayed, it would be equivalent to facing the comet and the ancient gods at the same time.

Protection is always more difficult than destruction, so almost all races at that time unanimously chose to leave the earth.

However, since so many creatures could not migrate, some creatures were destined to stay. Not only that, the environment of Zhixing was different from that of the Earth, and some weaker races could not survive at all.

So at that time, there was a huge disagreement within the rebellious species, and it split into two parts.

The powerful template creatures left, and the remaining races that could not migrate stayed.

The rebels who stayed were mainly humans, and it was from that time that humans began to take the leadership position of the rebels.

Because among the races that stayed, there was only one with nine senses, that is, Fuxi and Nuwa, who had a human head and a snake body.

They led the rebels who stayed and solved the unprecedented natural disaster.

"Comet... Comet... Could it be the New Dryas event 13,000 years ago?" Mo Qiong said.

Thirteen thousand years ago, the Earth experienced a global climate mutation, which wiped out a large number of creatures, and even the plateau and the tropics had the Arctic Dryas.

This kind of influence can only come from outside the sky. Scientists speculated that it was a comet, but they have not found the comet until now.

Thinking of this, Mo Qiong looked at the moon in the sky.

Of course, the Emperor's daughter Sang didn't know what the New Dryas incident was. She only knew that the comet almost collided head-on with the earth.

Fortunately, the attention of the ancient gods was attracted by the migrating powerful races, and they did not divert their energy to aggravate this natural disaster.

Therefore, only a few ancient gods who did not leave interfered, such as Gaia.

It must be said that it was precisely because of the division of the rebels that the comet at that time could be blocked.

In the end, it was the countless weak races that stayed behind, united, and sacrificed countless people, and finally made it pass by.

Let the huge comet slow down and circle the earth.

As for Gaia, who destroyed Nuwa's action, she was also sealed by hand.

However, the price was also extremely heavy. In order to deviate from the comet, countless strong men were hit to death, and even the pillars of heaven were broken.

After that, there was a flood.

"It cut through the sky, crossed the firmament, and dragged a huge tail. We call it the trace of the sky, or the sky gap."

"Countless waters fell from the sky, and heavy rain overturned the world, like the backflow of the heavenly river."

"My father told me that the sky gap caused the stars to shift suddenly, as if the entire sky was tilted to the northwest."

The description of the Emperor's daughter Sang was completely consistent with the myth.

Originally, this myth of repairing the sky was completely illogical. How could the sky be broken? If it was broken, how could the heavenly river backflow? Among the many flood myths, this one is the most fabricated.

But when he heard it at this moment, Mo Qiong suddenly understood that the facts seemed to be exactly the opposite, and this was the one closest to the truth.

If you think about it carefully, it is impossible for the water on the earth to cause a global flood under normal climate change, and it would be even more difficult to submerge all the mountains. But if the water comes from outside the sky and is affected by the gravity of a massive celestial body, then it makes sense.

Since ancient times, many comet events have been observed. Ancient people liked to describe them with "sky marks" and "sky gaps", which means that the sky is broken to describe the spectacular scene when a comet passes by.

It turns out that the sky gap in the oldest flood myth refers to a comet.

A comet is mainly composed of ice and drags a large tail composed of countless ice. At that time, it must have been mostly solid water, so when it approached the earth, countless icebergs peeled off from the comet and continuously hit the earth.

After entering the atmosphere, the ice of the comet melted into water, which was the backflow of the Milky Way.

The huge amount of water entering the earth, coupled with the gravitational influence of the comet, created a towering tsunami that spread all over the world, forming the largest flood in history.

Although the comet orbits the earth, strictly speaking, the earth and the comet rotate together around a center of mass. Although this center of mass is inside the earth, there is still a big difference between having it and not having it.

Various influences have caused the earth's orbit to change, and even the rotation speed has become faster. From the surface of the earth to the starry sky, it seems that the entire sky has moved a little.

It is precisely because the sky is tilted to the northwest that the sun, moon and stars move.

…

P.S: Sorry. Because I found that many people can't understand or don't like it, I don't plan to write the story of the rebellion war, and I won't open some historical brain holes. But patching the sky is too important. This is related to explaining why the body of the mysterious man on the moon has not appeared long ago, so it must be written. In addition, this is my favorite explanation. It is not easy to integrate it into the book. I feel a loss if I don't write it. I feel uncomfortable all over.
