Chapter 755 Proverbs (4000)(1/2)
World-destroying grass...
Wu Liang frowned slightly, this was a direction he had never thought of.
Based on the information he had previously known, although he had already speculated that Yangshen Zhizhi might not be of any benefit to humans, at least after eating the black soil produced by Yangshenzhi, humans or some other animals did gain longevity. This was also unreasonable.
Denied.
Although this longevity also comes at a certain price.
For example, they will lose their fertility, and they will not be able to leave a normal corpse after death.
But even so, Wu Liang had never associated Yangshen Zhi with such a serious matter.
"What basis do you have?"
Thinking deeply and looking at the invisible "Xu Fu", Wu Liang needed something to convince him, not an empty conclusion.
"The Ancestor God said that the basis is what Wu Taishi just said about these two ancient ferocious beasts."
The witch continued to wait for a long time as if listening attentively, and finally said to Wu Liang, "The ancestor god also said that he has been observing this island and everything related to the nourishing mushroom over the years, and he found that all people who feed on black soil or
After death, all animals, without exception, turned into cold rocks."
"When these people or animals were alive, in order to obtain more black soil, they all became spreaders of Yangshenzhi. They would take the initiative to carry Yangshenzhi around to find the corpses of people or animals, and assist Yangshenzhi to complete the treatment of those people.
The only difference in the transformation of corpses is that animals are simply looking for corpses, while humans will actively kill other animals, even their own kind, in order to obtain black soil, in order to satisfy their own needs for black soil."
"At first, the ancestors didn't think there was much of a problem with these things. The corpses of people and animals would turn into black soil because of the nourishing mushroom. Other people and animals would feed on the black soil, and in the process help the nourishing mushroom complete the task.
It spreads, and people who have eaten black soil can live longer, but they will turn into special cold rocks after death, and these cold rocks will turn into special jade stones that can produce nourishing mushrooms over time..."
"Although this process seems to be a complete reincarnation, all things related to Yangshenzhi are in reincarnation."
"But thinking about it carefully, Ancestor God always felt that something important was missing. Finally, he finally thought of the crux of the problem: those cold rocks, people, animals, nourishing mushrooms... all things are there in this reincarnation.
Consumption may one day reach a certain balance, but those cold rocks will never disappear. They will only become more and more with this seemingly complete reincarnation, gradually forming a mountain, gathering into
A ridge eventually becomes something that can affect everything in the world."
"It's a pity that the Ancestral God has never understood what kind of impact it will have, because the island has not undergone any obvious changes in the hundreds of years since he became an earthbound spirit."
"It wasn't until Wu Taishi mentioned something related to these two ancient ferocious beasts that the ancestral gods woke up from a dream. It might be the Ice Age that Wu Taishi mentioned!"
"Zuzhou is still too small, and the animals on it are very limited. Therefore, the impact of the cold rocks on this endless world is also very limited."
"But if we go outside, once countless people and animals become the spreaders of Yangshen Mushroom, and then turn into cold rocks after death, the world will inevitably start to become colder under the influence of these rocks, and over time, it will definitely lead to the extinction of all living things.
During the Ice Age, these ancient ferocious beasts that are infinitely stronger than humans will be exterminated by the Ice Age, so naturally humans and animals in the world will not suffer the same fate."
"That's why the ancestors believed that the essence of Yangshenzhi is actually the World-Destroying Grass. Once it can multiply outside, and people or animals outside become its spreaders due to the black soil, then the day of destruction may not be far away.
"
Having said this, Miko Hu finally paused. Being able to remember so much content in such a short period of time, and it was still very advanced and unfamiliar content, Miko Hu's memory is really good.
However, it is also possible that Xu Fu was talking and the witch was repeating it. After all, Wu Liang could not see Xu Fu or hear his voice at all.
"Is that what happened?"
However, after hearing these words, Wu Liang also endured a brainstorm.
He knew in his heart that the conclusion given by Xu Fu actually made some sense. At least as far as he knew, the impact of temperature changes on the earth was indeed huge.
Scientists in later generations have already conducted research. Although Wu Liang does not remember the specific data, he still has a general understanding of the research content. Among them is the impact that global warming will have on the earth. It is said that the average temperature of the earth only needs to increase.
An increase of a few degrees Celsius will cause the glaciers in Antarctica and the Arctic to melt to a certain extent, causing some island countries and many coastal cities to become "Atlantis" under the sea.
For this reason, when various countries held summits in later generations, the climate issue has always been a very important topic, and "global warming" has also been a commonplace term.
Same reason.
What if the average temperature of the earth dropped by how many degrees Celsius?
This must also be a very scary thing. Take the temperate zone where China is located as an example. This temperate zone has four distinct seasons. If the average temperature of the earth drops by a few degrees Celsius, it will immediately cause ice and snow to quickly cover the surface of the earth when winter comes, and maintain
The time is longer, and the thickness of the coverage increases, so the winter will naturally be lengthened accordingly.
Even if the temperature warms up slightly in the summer, a large amount of winter ice and snow will absorb unimaginable heat when it melts, which is very likely to further shorten the summer. Before the ice and snow have completely melted, the next winter will arrive...so trapped
After the vicious cycle, the Ice Age will arrive as scheduled.
besides.
Later generations of scientists have also discovered that the earth has actually experienced eight ice ages before.
Some people think that the Earth's Ice Age is like the four seasons of the year in human cognition, and they are constantly alternating. However, any species is too small and short-lived for the Earth, and no one has the opportunity to experience this.
The back and forth alternation has become completely extinct, and it is not even worthy of entering the memory of the earth.
And some scientists have made predictions that the earth's next ice age may come in 15,000 years. The premise is that human activities do not have a serious impact on the earth during this period, otherwise it may be further advanced.
However, Wu Liang was still shocked by this conclusion that "Yangshenzhi" was the culprit of the Ice Age.
Is this really the case?
Wu Liang looked at the two ends of the Shandong dragon in front of him that had turned into cold rocks and began to turn into jade, and then thought of the strange stone fish he had seen in the pits of the rocks before.
Obviously, they had all fed on the black soil produced by cultivating Shen Zhi before they were alive, otherwise how could they become like this.
Seeing the big from the small.
It can at least be inferred that there were not a few animals that fed on this black soil during the Cretaceous period, and it may have even spread to the entire species... After all, just for those weird stone fish, Wu Liang speculated that there must be tens of thousands of them on this reef.
The level has formed the "completed reincarnation" mentioned in Xu Fu's words.
in addition.
After thinking about it carefully, this island seems to be abnormal. The sun is obviously shining brightly, but it doesn't feel too hot on this island. This is no longer a normal contract, especially when entering this reef and
After the Jade Mountain, it felt as cool as if I had entered an air-conditioned room, and I even felt a little cold occasionally.
That is to say, the sun never sets here, and it seems that there is no difference in the four seasons of the year. Otherwise, I am afraid that the ice age would have already ushered in, right?
The more he thought about it, the more shocked Wu Liang felt.
Maybe Xu Fu is right, Yangshenzhi is the world-killing grass.
If you imagine the earth as a giant, Yangshenzhi is the lymphocyte that is hidden deep underground on the earth and is used to remove viruses. Once the necessary time comes, the lymphocytes will take action to clean out all viruses in the body.
There is no doubt that humans are also one of the viruses of the earth.
Sometimes Wu Liang even thinks that humans may not only be viruses in the earth, but tumors of the earth. After all, no species currently known to exist on the earth has ever exploited the earth's resources as much as humans do.
He will exterminate other species for his own benefit, let alone invent and create weapons to exterminate all things...
Later generations of scientists said this in response to the climate issue: "What humans are saving is not the earth, what humans are saving is themselves. The earth does not need to be saved by humans. The earth has existed for billions of years and has its own way of survival."
"
"The Ancestor God said that Wu Taishi's expression at this moment has said everything. Wu Taishi may know this better than the Ancestor God, but he just doesn't want to reveal this secret for some reasons."
The witch Hu then said to Wu Liang.
"..."
Wu Liang also thought of the famous novel called "Journey to the Center of the Earth" written by later generations.
Although the novel is fictional, it was not the first time Wu Liang thought of it after he learned about the "Ghost Cave".
The location of Zuzhou and Yangshenzhi can be regarded as the "center of the earth". This is the ultimate secret realm of the earth. Even later generations with very advanced exploration and drilling technology have never seen the real "center of the earth".
Perhaps this is the real "center of the earth".
So since Zuzhou really exists, what about the other nine immortal states such as Yingzhou, Xuanzhou, Jukuzhou, etc. that have appeared in the history of the Celestial Dynasty?
Are there also the legendary Penglai, Abbot and other fairy islands?
Does it also belong to the inner earth world?
If it weren't for chance, people would never be able to reach it. And on these fairy islands, are the ultimate secrets of the earth hidden, the ultimate password to unlock the earth?
Thinking like this.
Wu Liang has another level of understanding about these legendary fairy islands.
Since ancient times, the Celestial Dynasty has believed that immortals have the most direct relationship with "the way of heaven", and "the way of heaven" usually refers to "the rules of all things, the principles of all things, and everything has certain rules."
So is it possible that in ancient times, someone from the Celestial Dynasty arrived at these places and captured the secrets of these "earth core worlds", so these places were called fairy islands and those desirable legends came about?
It is precisely because these secrets are all terrible "Pandora's Box".
Therefore, the ancestors deliberately erased the records of these fairy islands, and only a few words were accidentally spread, becoming a legendary place where people today seek immortality?
However, Wu Liang did not intend to mention these thoughts to Xu Fu.
He didn't think that he was smarter than Xu Fu, nor did he think that his exploration for a few hours could compare to Xu Fu's hundreds of years of observation and research after transforming into an earthbound spirit.
He just stands on the shoulders of giants and knows more things than Xu Fu...
"Xu Jun."
Wu Liang finally spoke, and his title to Xu Fu also quietly changed, "You may be right, Yangshenzhi is indeed more like the World-Destroying Grass, rather than the Immortal Grass that makes people immortal, because its existence seems to violate
The way of heaven, but it is within the arrangement of heaven."
To be continued...
