Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 258: Ancestors of Sequoia Aboriginals (1/3)


"Turn on visual recording."

Yin En doesn't play fake things, and now is not the time to be shocked, he directly asked the chip to record all the murals he saw with his eyes on video!

The murals are simple, but very clear and charming. Obviously, the painters are professionals who have studied this field.

Yin En held his breath and carefully observed the scenes in the mural.

The mural in front has been damaged and can only be seen from the Broken Moon.

After the fragments of the moon fell to the earth, all beings on the earth were surrounded by flames. The towering cities and buildings collapsed in the meteorite rain, and the flying vehicles and airships also emitted black smoke. The fall—this should not be caused by a meteorite, but a large-scale mechanical failure. A strong electromagnetic shock or a change in the spiritual energy field swept the entire city. Residents in robes and various costumes scattered in panic on the streets .

They have different appearances and characteristics. Yin En also found common human races such as humans, elves, and dwarves. There are also many subhumans with various animal ears and animal characteristics. Appear.

And if you look closely, you can also distinguish the differences between the white people, the iron people, the red people and the golden people from the pigments that have not faded.

It seems that in the pre-epoch, many races of the present have appeared, but there is no distinction between the races. Some people still have cyber-modified parts on their bodies, and they walk on the streets as equals. , but suddenly encountered a devastating disaster.

The impact of the meteorite was just a prelude. With the collapse of the moon, the light on the earth was gone, and everything on the murals became black and white. Yin En speculated that it might be an artistic expression that all electronic instruments were temporarily unavailable.

Then, the scene returns to the coast—a sky-high tower is collapsing.

There seems to be more terrifying things happening in the ocean... Although there is no description of meteorites falling, huge tsunamis, earthquakes and geological changes are happening. It is these natural disasters that have destroyed all coastal cities, and Tongtian Tower cannot Survived, it sank into the sea together with the prosperous city.

However, deep underground, a base that was originally designed to resist natural and man-made disasters is still operating.

That's Sequoia Base.

The people in the Sequoia base seem to be arguing, because of the cover of the earth's crust and sea water, the electromagnetic waves that seem to interfere with the entire Terra world or the influence of other psionic fields did not interfere with them. With color.

But they still fell into a panic. A group of people surrounded a glowing thing and were beating each other and fighting. Many people died in the base until the four leaders stood up and reached an agreement.

They made four keys, representing 'energy', 'maintenance', 'circulation' and 'future' respectively, locked many dangerous and damaged areas in the base, and carried out renovations inside the base.

Only when the four keys are gathered together can those blocked dangerous areas and the gates of the base be opened.

The natural disasters outside are still going on, but the interior of Sequoia Base has been stabilized, and the four leaders have jointly managed it. They have successfully established an internal circulation inside the base, borrowing the ubiquitous light to cultivate, raise meat and livestock, and maintain the living conditions. enough people.

Time flies, the old leaders who were already old before the moon shattered passed away one by one, and the other leaders who took over afterward were also very good, leading the internal personnel of Sequoia Base to continue to maintain the ecological circle and repair many facilities inside the base .

This mural is skipped very quickly. Just a few paintings tell about the change of several generations of leaders. Obviously, the painter is not very clear about this history, or feels that there is no need to describe it in detail—in short , Several generations of leaders have changed, and the Sequoia base has always maintained stability.

However, time is always the biggest killer.

Soon, Yin En understood why the mural was specially painted for the process of leader change.

Because, after a certain water purification facility was destroyed by meat animals, the leader wearing 'green' clothes, representing 'circulation' showed no worries, and everyone else was silent.

Obviously.

They have forgotten how to maintain the facility.

Maybe not forgotten.

Yin En watched this mural silently. He knew very well that in a highly differentiated modern society, many functions are replaced by extremely professional maintenance machinery or professional workers for special maintenance. A mechanical engineer may only care about himself They are proficient in the field of machinery and familiarity, and it is impossible for maintenance workers to master the technology of repairing all siege equipment.

Except for spaceships and space exploration systems with as few people as possible, there is basically no need for professionals to master multiple skills.

The larger the civilization and the more sophisticated the department, the stricter the division of its employees, and the more people it needs to maintain the 'knowledge' needed for its own existence.

To put it simply - although everyone knows basic mathematics or advanced mathematics, except for mathematicians who specialize in mathematics, few people know what they are usually studying.

The rest of the techniques are the same.

After the natural disaster, Sequoia Base chose to be self-proclaimed underground to avoid natural disasters and isolate themselves from the world. They established a complete ecological system and used the base's energy to breed animals and grow food, which solved the problem of survival.

However, when all the first-generation Sequoia base staff are getting old or even dying, technology loss is inevitable.

Their descendants do not have the conditions to receive comprehensive higher education like them. Even if they have mastered a lot of technology, they will never be able to cover everything.

Not to mention, there may be no professionals who can repair water purification facilities among this group of people.

According to Yin En's own personal experience, this kind of thing is usually outsourced-cheap, efficient and professional, and really needs to be recruited.

So, the recession started.

In addition to water purification equipment, many other equipment began to have problems.

Of course, there are only a few that cannot be repaired. Most of the key facilities are the key points. Compared with their parents, the level has not fallen too much. In the pre-epoch civilization, they can be regarded as intellectuals who have completed higher education.

However, what about the heirs of their heirs?

If this continues, within three generations, the Sequoia people will turn from the adherents of the previous era into out-and-out technical barbarians-they have mastered some high-end technologies, but they cannot carry out further analysis and development.

In order to change this, the man in blue and white, who represents the future and sustains the leader, thought of many solutions.

—For example, using huge machinery to let people learn knowledge.

——Or artificially cultivate an external memory organ, record the key knowledge in it, and transplant it from generation to generation to pass on the memory and technology.

——Another example is to engrave knowledge directly in the blood. As people grow up, they can gradually understand the knowledge in their own blood.

These are the methods that the civilization of the pre-epoch has been developing for a long time, and has already become quite proficient.

In the end, because the huge learning machine was too extravagant, easily damaged, and unable to manufacture some key parts, they chose to modify their own blood vessels and an external memory organ to help future Sequoia people maintain technical level method.

They placed newborns and even fertilized eggs in jars similar to culture bins, and then prepared them to write a lot of knowledge into their instincts... There are a lot of genetic engineering equipment in the Sequoia Base, which is not the same as Yin En Many alien ecosystems seen are consistent.

Blood inheritance is not difficult for them.

——Now, Yin En has almost understood the origin of the Sequoia natives.

The Sequoia natives are undoubtedly the descendants of the staff at the Sequoia Base!

It’s no wonder that the vast majority of Sequoia natives are Jinzhi people, because among the former staff, the Jinzhimin who were the most adaptable to the environment had the greatest genetic advantage, and most of the newborns born after intermarriage were Jinzhimin... other races are all because of not Adaptation, so the self-suppression of the phenotype gene ensures that the ethnic group can continue.

But here comes the problem...

Sequoia Base, or in other words, the South China Sea ruins group, has sufficient energy, a lot of resources, and a complete ecological circle-the life in it is definitely more comfortable than living in the outside world.

At the very least, the indigenous ancestors living in the base have never worried about food, nor have the whole family 'adaptively' turned into that kind of short appearance due to lack of nutrition.

"Why are they going out? Abandon their al-Qaeda membership to become 'indigenous'?"

With such doubts, Yin En gradually looked behind the mural.
