Chapter 409: Girl, Human Emperor?
Are you him?
who is he?
Lin Ye looked at the line of words that appeared, frowned, and asked directly.
Wu Zu is waiting for someone?
Is it a little girl or a little boy in the picture?
Reincarnation?
Lin Ye couldn't help but wonder if the little boy was the Martial Ancestor, and the little girl was the person closest to the Martial Ancestor.
elder sister?
But on second thought, he felt that it didn't make sense. If the Martial Ancestor was looking for a reincarnated person, why would he set up so many checkpoints?
What does this last picture and this question mean?
"I am who I am. I don't know who that he you are referring to?" Lin Ye answered facing the stone wall.
Lin Ye's answer caused the stone wall to change, and a piece of paper floated out from the stone wall.
Gold paper.
Reincarnation gold paper!
Reaching out to take the paper, Lin Ye thought of what Lao Shi said about the origin of the paper. This was a treasure related to reincarnation in the underworld.
At the beginning, the Buddha came to this world and reincarnated with the help of this piece of paper, and he still retained his original memory.
Could it be that the person this stone wall is waiting for is the Buddha?
Lin Ye denied this guess. This stone wall was formed from the corpse of Martial Ancestor. Martial Ancestor had seen Buddha and the two had had a conversation. It was impossible for him to continue waiting for Buddha's arrival.
Just as Lin Ye was guessing, the golden paper emitted a warm light, not dazzling but hot. The light enveloped Lin Ye, and soon, Lin Ye saw another scene.
He saw a young girl.
The girl was calm and collected, carrying a medicine basket on her back, picking herbs all over the mountain.
There is a tiger following the girl. If she encounters a wild beast, the tiger will roar and scare it away.
After picking the herbs, the girl returned to the tribe. She took the herbs to give to the sick people in the tribe, but the people not only did not accept her herbs, but drove her out of the tribe.
Because in the eyes of the tribesmen, illness is a punishment from the gods. As long as they pray to the gods sincerely, the gods will forgive them and cure their diseases.
If the disease is not cured, it means that the gods have not forgiven them, and they will have to accept the punishment of death.
The girl is an outlier.
The girl who was driven out of the tribe was not discouraged. Under the protection of the tiger, she continued to pick herbs and gave them to people from other tribes again and again. But the result was always the same. The people of these tribes drove her away, and some even wanted to kill her. If it were not for the protection of the tiger, the girl would have been killed long ago.
But the girl was still tireless. In the process of picking herbs, she invented a kind of writing. She recorded the effects of some herbs. The writing was very simple, with only simple lines, but it was writing after all.
Finally, the girl delivered the herbs once.
He was a primitive man who had been bitten by a wild beast and his body was covered with scars. The girl used herbs to stop the bleeding of the primitive man, and then took good care of him and brought him back to life.
"Martial Ancestor?"
When Lin Ye saw the crescent-shaped scar on the face of the rescued primitive man, he was shocked. This girl turned out to be the savior of Martial Ancestor.
From the size of Martial Ancestor, Lin Ye judged that at this time Martial Ancestor had not yet been expelled by the various tribes.
"So, this is the reason why Wu Zu was driven out of the tribe?"
Lin Ye thought about the scene he had seen, where many people in the tribe were sick, and the tribesmen advocated praying to the gods for protection and treatment, but Wu Zu planned to use herbs to treat the tribesmen because he himself was cured in this way.
In the end, Wu Zu failed to cure the diseases of his tribesmen and even his children with herbs. Lin Ye could guess the reason. Herbs can cure diseases, but they have to be used for the right symptoms. Wu Zu was not clear about the medicinal properties of herbs and thought that the herbs picked by the girl to heal his wounds could also cure other diseases. The result is self-evident. He failed.
Retracting his thoughts, Lin Ye continued to look at the screen.
After the girl said goodbye to Wu Zu, she continued to walk on this land. She not only saved Wu Zu, but also saved many people. Later, she began to teach primitive people to read.
Those are the most basic words she created.
The disseminator of civilization.
Lin Ye looked at the girl's actions and gave her a definition.
Because the girl not only taught them how to write and how to use herbs to treat diseases, she also taught some primitive people how to use tools to hunt. One of the primitive people, under the girl's guidance, actually made fire.
The primitive man originally intended to carve a sharp piece of wood to use as a hunting tool, but he accidentally discovered fire.
From then on, fire began to appear in this world and spread to one tribe after another.
Human beings began to learn to use fire to eliminate darkness and drive away poisonous insects and ferocious beasts.
This is human progress.
However, what Lin Ye did not expect was that not only did humans not thank the person who invented fire, but they also cruelly executed the primitive man and killed him alive with fire.
Then, humans began to praise the gods and thank them for bringing them fire.
When seeing this, Lin Ye's brows were deeply furrowed, but things were not over yet. As the girl brought writing to humans, the tribes began to have contact, and then... the war broke out.
The tribes began to compete for resources and territory.
When the girl saw this, she tried her best to stop it, but the humans from various tribes remained unmoved. In the end, the girl had to leave in disappointment.
During the time when the girl was away, the wars among the tribes reached their peak, and each tribe had its own unique power, which came from the power of the gods they worshipped.
Human beings began to kill and plunder on a large scale. The number of people who died in just one year was several times the number of lives lost to disease in the previous ten years.
During this period, Lin Ye did not see the figure of Martial Ancestor. He just watched the girl walking alone on this land.
Later, the girl saved a drowning boy by the river. The boy followed the girl, learned writing from her, and deepened the girl's writing.
The girl created twenty-eight characters, while the boy spent ten years adding hundreds of characters.
Later, the girl and the grown-up man met Wu Zu.
Wu Zu also chose to follow the girl.
The girl no longer wandered around, but chose a plain to live on.
From time to time, Wu Zu would bring back some sick humans. The girl would heal these people, and the man who could write would teach them how to write.
More and more people began to move to the plains, especially from other places. People from various tribes were all fighting, so many people fled to the plains and chose to settle down there.
Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long.
Those tribes, especially those that had won the battle, began to have ideas when they saw the increasing population on the plain.
In addition, the girl did not worship gods, which was regarded as heresy by these tribes.
At first, it was a single tribe that planned to attack the plains, but they were all defeated by Wu Zu and his men.
But later on, all these tribes that worshipped gods united together and launched a siege on the plains.
More than a dozen tribes attacked together. Even if the Martial Ancestor was very powerful, he could not withstand the large numbers.
In the end, the girls and their friends were defeated.
Wu Zu led his men to resist these tribes, allowing the girl and the man who taught the school to escape with some people.
This incident was a huge blow to the girl.
The girl locked herself on a hill and just sat there.
At the foot of the mountain, the man who taught began to fight back.
He began to spread writing to other tribes, develop his own spies in other tribes, and train his subordinates.
Compared with people in other tribes who have no written language, there are some difficulties in communication and they cannot enforce discipline. However, the man relied on his written language to train a powerful team.
The man led the team to fight back against those tribes.
Soon the man annexed more than a dozen surrounding tribes, and after a few years he became the largest tribe in the surrounding area.
However, this tribe did not respect the gods. The man required everyone in the tribe to obey his orders. Any tribe that they found worshiping gods must be reported immediately, and he would lead people to conquer them.
That period of time was the darkest era for those tribes that worshipped gods. Many tribes were wiped out because they refused to give up their beliefs.
Some tribes had to hold worship ceremonies in secret, or migrate the entire tribe into the mountains.
A man who unified most of the human tribes and was worshipped as the Human Emperor by the human race.
The Human Emperor unified most of the human race. He not only spread writing to them, but also passed on the girl's medical knowledge.
Humans can finally fight diseases without relying on gods, and have learned to use some tools to resist natural disasters. Although some people still get sick from diseases and natural disasters will cause cholera to humans, at least they are no longer as weak and powerless as before, and can only desperately pray for the gods' protection.
The human race also gradually accepted life without gods and began to live and work in peace and contentment. The population of the entire human population was also growing rapidly.
As the population exploded, problems arose.
There is not enough food.
Humans in primitive times did not have many food choices. Apart from hunting, they could only rely on digging up some wild vegetables. The so-called grains had not yet been discovered at that time.
The shortage of food caused conflicts within this large and developing tribe.
The Human Emperor had no choice but to give food first to the group of people who followed him, and then to those who surrendered after being conquered by him.
As a result, the surrendered tribes were naturally dissatisfied, and soon internal fighting broke out, and the people of these tribes rebelled.
The Emperor suppressed these rebels and reduced the people of these tribes to slaves, giving them only a small amount of food and requiring them to do the most work.
Seeing this, Lin Ye sighed .
This is the transition from primitive society to slave society.
The low productivity has made this situation inevitable.
In order to have enough food, the Human Emperor had to continue his external conquests. Every time he conquered a tribe, he turned the people in the tribe into slaves.
The more the Human Emperor treated people from other tribes in this way, the more tribes rebelled. In the end, these rebellious tribes joined forces with other tribes to fight against the Human Emperor.
Under internal and external troubles, the number of people in the Human Emperor Tribe became smaller and smaller, and they were defeated by the joint efforts of other tribes.
Back mountain.
After many years, the Human Emperor climbed up the back mountain for the first time and met the girl.
The Human Emperor told the girl about what had happened over the years. The girl was very disappointed after listening. In her opinion, what was the difference between the Human Emperor's actions and those of the gods?
The Human Emperor went down the mountain dejectedly, and finally chose to burn himself to death before the coalition forces of other tribes attacked the palace.
On the back mountain, the girl looked at the fire at the foot of the mountain. For the first time, she showed anger on her face. She murmured to herself, "You...you, do you have to force people like this?"
