A History of 200,000 Years

It has to be said that the average intelligence of the Gliese seems to be slightly higher than that of humans. Under the influence of specific environments, their brains have evolved to be more refined, energy-efficient, and efficient.

Almost every individual has a strong sense of number and image perception, and is a natural artist.

Biological brains are like various types of CPUs and GPUs. Although their functions are similar, the difference in structure and frequency will always have different performance.

The evolution of organisms does not have a certain evolutionary goal, it is just for better survival, that is to say, the birth of wisdom is always just an accident. Moreover, evolution is a road of no return, it can only be repaired, and it cannot be overthrown and restarted.

Therefore, whoever makes fewer mistakes on this road of no return has a better brain.

It's a pity that due to some evolutionary influences and a life style with no pressure to survive, even though the Gliese people have smart minds, they don't spend this energy on serious scientific research.

For a long time in ancient times, they have been obsessed with all kinds of weird arts, including painting, music, sculpture, and religious culture... The

natural wilderness phobia makes this civilization have no ambition to explore nature. Individuals who want to look at the starry sky , were all ruthlessly eliminated by the typhoon that was born every moment.

The vast universe is called "the residence of demons" by some primitive religions. The Gliese people in ancient times believed that demons brought endless winds. Only the mother earth is a warm and safe haven.

Under the influence of this culture, almost all individuals like to hide underground and enjoy a comfortable life.

A professor of the history of new civilizations is interpreting the investigation report sent by Wang Junpeng and others on the stage. This report describes the days of Gliese civilization in ancient times in considerable detail.

"...Compared to the life of the ancient apes, their lives are so superior. Even superior to the extreme!"

"It is already at the top of the planet's food chain. Apart from natural disasters, there are not many natural enemies. Coupled with the clan-based tribal life, as long as there are no major natural disasters and man-made disasters, it is impossible to have a big survival crisis. "

Well, in this case, I think the probability of getting out of the comfort zone is very low."

In addition, the reproductive capacity of this group of guys is not high. , just think about multiplying, or eating, drinking and having fun.

There are even some smart individuals who realize that as long as they don't give birth to too many people and don't eat up all the food around them, they can stay in one place forever, even eliminating the need for migration!

Therefore, in ancient times, in pursuit of a better quality of life, these guys began to spontaneously control the population. Anyway, children are born from eggs, and they are raised by all individuals. It doesn't seem to be a big deal if there are more or fewer children, as long as the whole tribe is not wiped out... However, the life of the tribe as a unit, after all

, There are some trading needs, especially... the need for genetic transmission.

Inbreeding can lead to various genetic defects, so the genes endow them with a natural instinct to like the new and dislike the old. Females in the same tribe will always look very bored after watching too much, while members of other tribes are different and easier Bring forth the desire to reproduce.

In this situation, a very peculiar profession was born... bard!

In ancient and medieval times, the bard has always been the most desirable and elegant profession.

These brave bards have the ability to distinguish the weather with one hand. They can spread various arts and conduct various trades between tribes. For them, the most important and attractive thing is to spread genes.

Reproductive activities can bring pleasure.

This kind of genetic transmission in distant areas also invisibly reduces the probability of inbreeding...

Thus, a completely stable primitive civilization was formed in this way.

The birth of science is not an inevitable event of a civilization, it requires a harsher environment and a more rigorous ideology. The Gliese civilization, which is obsessed with various entertainment arts, has a very low probability of birthing science.

Time is like this day by day...

year by year...

ten thousand years and ten thousand years have passed...

this ignorant and carefree era has continued...

continued...

until 200,000 years ago , an advanced scientific research spacecraft passed by here, breaking the deadlock of the Gliese civilization.

The alien civilization discovered that this intelligent race that had given birth to language, writing, currency, various religions, and even excellent art culture stayed in the most primitive tribal stage for a long time, and did not even establish a country.

I'm even more surprised that they have such clever brains that they haven't given birth to natural science to improve their living environment.

This alien civilization, honored as the "enlightener", may feel that this race has been ignorant, and it is a bit wasteful.

So some measures were taken, and a new chapter of Gliese civilization was opened!

What exactly did the "enlightenment person" do and how did he think about it? Because the age is too long, it is really impossible to verify it. There are almost 10,000 theories from various historical materials of unknown origin. But one thing is similar. According to the records of various clans, the stay of this alien civilization should be very short, no more than 2 months.

Just these two months have brought earth-shaking changes to the Gliese civilization!

First of all, a large number of primitive religions that hinder social development have all disappeared!

In the so-called "demon dwelling place", a god-like civilization has emerged... All kinds of strange magical creations are called "science", and all the lies are of course self-defeating.

This power derived from science can even defeat natural disasters!

It's just...unimaginable.

The second point is that under this natural worship of "mighty power", mathematics and natural science have become the highest level of "art".

A large number of Gliese people are elegant in learning these difficult knowledge.

In this way, the "enlightenment" stayed for a short period of time, and a storm-like thought revolution appeared in the long and narrow living belt, and the bards ecstatically brought new ideas and spread them to various living places.

The settlements began to cross-spread again, and the "beauty of mathematics and natural science" became popular. Everyone was studying circles, ellipses, conic sections, lever principles, buoyancy... This newly opened era is called the Middle Ages!
