Chapter 788 Square Machine

When things are open, Mu Lu sighs, but also reminisces, and the patriarch Tuoshan has the same expression as him.

Mu Shao led Chen Mo to a large shelf and opened the animal skins wrapped on it. A laser transmitter and gun came into Chen Mo's eyes. It was made of metal.

"Sir, you should know what this is? This is a machine left by our ancestors of the Manshan clan. Many of them used to be, but they were slowly lost. The machine on your body is the first time I have seen this apart from these. Machinery, it is somewhat similar to what the ancestor records describe."

Chen Mo asked the battle armor to scan and restore the structure of the "weapon" left by the Manshan tribe. It is different from the guns of the earth in terms of design, but the function is similar, that is, guns, but there is no ammunition, and small lasers have no energy.

The level of this weapon is equivalent to the technological level of earth civilization.

Seeing that Chen Mo was studying the machinery carefully, Mu Shao took off the translator and gave it to Tuoshan to signal him to introduce.

"This is actually related to the history of our ancestors, as well as the history of our Manshan tribe. According to records, our ancestors originally lived on a peaceful planet. After a disaster happened on that planet and it was no longer suitable for living, the ancestors began planning to migrate. There are many teams, and our ancestors were one of them. After more than five hundred years of flying, they finally arrived on this planet."

Takuyama sighed and continued to speak.

"The ancestors recorded that 700 years ago, during their migration, they encountered a change in the sky. They called it a'space vortex'. After our migrating team fell into the space vortex, they arrived here. Two million people migrated. The team, after five hundred years and various disasters, only 50,000 people are left here."

Takuyama's voice was a little low, as if opening an old history book.

Jing Ge and Tuoli were attracted by him, and Chen Mo listened carefully. He needed to find clues about this place from these histories.

"But the disaster did not end. The remaining 50,000 people were lucky and found a planet. But when they arrived at this planet, they discovered that the environment here is different from the planet where their ancestors lived.

Weak scholars and intellectuals all died, and only a few thousand rigorously trained fighters survived. That was an unfortunate beginning.Soldiers are not proficient in technology and knowledge, and there is a gap in the inheritance of cultural knowledge.At first I wanted to rely on the spacecraft's machinery to maintain the knowledge inheritance. Later, the spacecraft failed because of high technical requirements and did not understand maintenance, and was completely scrapped."

Chen Mo can imagine that situation.

A person from a planet with a low gravity suddenly landed on a planet with five times the gravity, and his physique couldn't bear it at all.

With a small number of people, there is a gap in cultural knowledge, which is terrifying.

This means that their civilization is interrupted and degraded.

"The ancestors are aware that the crisis is coming and there is no technical support. On this planet with a harsh living environment, their physique will be extinct sooner or later. The urgency of extinction makes the ancestors have to use the only technology they have to solve this problem. .

But what is more serious is in the back. The surviving ancestors and women cannot bear the environment here after they become pregnant, and they may be life-threatening. Even the offspring born are dead babies.It is impossible to continue the race."

"How did you solve this problem later?" Chen Mo asked curiously.

"The ancestors found some aboriginals on this planet. The aboriginals have low intelligence, but they have similar physical and characteristics. They are the same species. In the end, the ancestors compromised and combined with the aboriginal women, so we have the Barbarian Mountain tribe. Inherited the ancestor’s intelligence. The physique and intelligence of the native ancestors are normal, and the physique can resist the living environment here.

The continuing crisis is resolved and the population begins to increase, but the gap in knowledge is getting worse.Technological faults, as energy is exhausted, some machinery begins to be scrapped, although the ancestors recorded all their knowledge before they died.However, the increasingly serious situation of loss of knowledge cannot be changed, and the loss of machinery has also increased.

Up to 700 years, after many disasters and migrations, the only knowledge that has been preserved is the knowledge that these ancestors recorded on fur and wooden books. Fortunately, the inheritance of the text is not broken.We can only learn from this reserved knowledge to understand the world, but the effect is limited. We know many esoteric knowledge and words, but we cannot understand and interpret it."

Takuyama sighed, carrying heavy worries.

Jing Ge and Tuoli stopped talking. Although Tuoli was young, he understood what grandpa said.

"The people who have been screened out by this natural environment are all powerful fighters. Their ability to learn knowledge is not so strong, and the more profound knowledge is passed on. The ancestors' civilizational efforts are being lost, so the current situation of faults appears. What can be preserved is some basic truths and the truth about heaven and earth, leaving at least a little hope for future generations to rekindle civilization. If one day, these words and knowledge are lost, the wisdom of our ancestors will be completely gone."

Chen Mo knew that the fault of civilization was very uncomfortable, and the efforts and knowledge of countless ancestors finally disappeared because of the fault of civilization.Just like the Mayan civilization and other ancient civilizations on the earth, they encountered faults and eventually died out.

No wonder there are traces of mechanical civilization, the Manshan clan still uses primitive cold weapons.

After hundreds of years of interstellar migration, all personnel with advanced technology and energy technology died, and the machine was broken down.With only a few thousand people remaining, it is admirable to be able to stand firm and multiply in this extreme environment, while still retaining the most basic knowledge and text inheritance of civilization.

"Have your ancestors said, where is this place?" Chen Mo asked.

Chen Mo is a little confused now, just a lost traveler, he needs to determine where exactly it is.Tuoshan talked about the history of the Manshan tribe, but it did not help Chen Mo understand the location of this space.

"No." Tuoshan shook his head.

"However, there is a very important thing that has been passed down." Mu Luo learned of Chen Mo's problem, remembered an important item, hurriedly walked to a wooden cabinet, and carefully took out a layer of fur wrapped in layers. Big box.

Taking the translator from Takuyama and putting it on, Mu Shao began to introduce it seriously.

"This is something that our ancestors told us to be passed down. It is said that it is a record of the ancestral civilization. There are many important materials that can be used after the revival of civilization."

Mu Shao opened the box carefully.

The box opened, and a square machine appeared in Chen Mo's field of vision, looking like a Rubik's Cube.

The square machine is well protected and has no traces of damage. Machines such as storage computer mainframes, metal bodies, and projection-like lenses are very high-tech, with the technical level of Chen Mo when he left the earth.

Chen Mo looked carefully and guessed that it might be something like a microcomputer.If so, Chen Mo has the opportunity to find a clue about this space.

I thought it was a primitive planet, but I didn't expect an unexpected gain.

"Can you give me a try?" Chen Mo asked, pointing to the square machine.

Takuyama and Mu Shao talked in a low voice for a while, and finally made up their minds and nodded together.

They waited for too long, and this thing has not been turned on since the energy technology failure.Now that they met Chen Mo, a visitor from outside, and I can feel that Chen Mo is not malicious, this is an opportunity for them to regain their civilization heritage.

Even if this thing is precious, they want Chen Mo to try it, otherwise there is no hope.
