Chapter 1437: The Other World (152)
The gorillas are really a large number of adults, and they don't take Pang Xiaonan and the others in their eyes at all.
"Besides, you can get out of here. Next, you're going to have to break through on your own, and I'm not going to give any more instructions, and it's part of my pleasure to watch you fight with nature. ”
The gorilla's emotionless words shocked the hearts of Pang Xiaonan and the others, because, if you want to get out of New Bloss, there will be other unknown dangers waiting for you.
This is called Taoism and Nature. After saying this, Pang Xiaonan and the others had already arrived on the hillside where Pang Xiaonan stood before he came to the palace.
"It's really teleporting!" Rita reacted, staring at her hands, unable to believe it was real.
Pang Xiaonan turned to look at the palace opposite, where it was quiet, as if nothing had happened just now.
BridgeMorgan walked up to Pang Xiaonan, frowned and asked, "Is everything we just experienced real?"
Pang Xiaonan nodded and said, "It should be true, I was standing here before, I didn't know where you were, but now that you are standing by my side, this should not be an illusion." ”
Bridgemorgan also looked at the palace opposite and said, "It's really unbelievable, it turns out that the gods and gods in our hearts live here, and this may be the legendary Mount Olympus." ”
"I still can't believe it!" Rita Rima pinched Pang Xiaonan's waist vigorously.
"Ah...... Can you pinch your own flesh!" Pang Xiaonan was heartbroken, and he was about to kill Xiao Tian Lima, thinking that he would know that he would not come to save you, and he sacrificed Wu Yongqiang.
"It seems to be true. Rita Rima breathed a sigh of relief, "We really met God." ”
"So, everything we had doubts about before has been solved. Bridgemorgan shrugged his shoulders and looked at the temple opposite, which was nothing out of the ordinary, except for its huge appearance.
"Why do you want him to build a palace, he finally said, the Tao is natural, since it is advocating nature, he is a gorilla, he should live in a simple and unpretentious cave, why build a palace. Rita Rima crossed her waist and stared at the temple.
"I guess, the boss used to be a vain guy, he saw the magnificence of the architecture of the human world, so he thought to himself that the guys I created are living so luxuriously, then I have to be extravagant and build a palace, but when he built it, he found that it was empty, so he stopped working, or maintain the quaint style, didn't you find that this palace looks magnificent, in fact, it is very simple inside, there are blanks everywhere, and there is no decoration at all!" Pang Xiaonan stood in God's perspective and thought about the scene he had just seen.
"You can really make it up!" Rita Rima glanced at Pang Xiaonan, "Let's think about how to go back." ”
"Wu Yongqiang is really dead?" BridgeMorgan returned to his serious expression after leaving the temple, after all, he was still the sponsor of the operation. Wu Yongqiang is a teammate who has been born and died with him for a long time, and he still cares a lot.
"That's right, when we came here, we ran into a herd of rhinos, one of those big prehistoric rhinos, and he was hit by a herd of rhinos, no, trampled to death. Pang Xiaonan recalled that thrilling moment and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"What else did you encounter?" Bridgemorgan remembered what the gorilla had just said about breaking out to be self-reliant, and he couldn't help but calculate what dangers he would encounter when he went out.
"You may not believe it, but you have also encountered dragons and phoenixes. Pang Xiaonan's eyes lit up, "So I have always believed that the gorilla is really the fairy of the gods, you think, even the legendary dragon and phoenix call him the boss, so what is there to question his identity." ”
"What? Did you really run into the dragon and phoenix?" Rima Oda leaned over in disbelief, "Tell me, what do they look like?"
"Don't you know what it looks like?" Pang Xiaonan described, "What the legend looks like, it's basically what it looks like, and besides, aren't there photos of dragons and phoenixes on the Internet, I don't think it's too much." ”
"Neither the dragon nor the phoenix want to kill you?" Bridgemorgan Morgan didn't believe that Pang Xiaonan could beat a divine beast like the dragon and phoenix.
"When we were by the lake, we met Shenlong, and Shenlong told me that if we go home, it will be to turn back, and he will not embarrass us, if we insist on moving forward, he will destroy us, but we haven't found you yet!"
Pang Xiaonan slapped Xiao Tian Lima's shoulders with both hands, and reported the sorrow of the pinch just now, "So we said to Shenlong, we have to find you first, so Shenlong got angry, and it was spitting fire and discharging, and it almost killed us, but fortunately, we Jiren have our own natural appearance, and we were finally released by Shenlong." ”
"Why would he let you go, isn't the gorilla his boss, he dares not to listen to the boss's words. Oda Lima broke free from Pang Xiaonan's clutches, and her heart was full of doubts.
"According to my speculation, although this gorilla is the boss of all the divine beasts, it seems that there is no majesty of the boss, that is to say, these divine beasts are willing to obey the order, they will obey, and if they are not willing to obey, the gorilla does not seem to be held accountable, I see, this boss is doing home, he is doing nothing. ”
Pang Xiaonan remembered some Taoist views, since the gorilla finally said a Taoist nature, naturally this Taoist theory was also passed on by him to later Taoists, and Fuxi and Laozi inherited his mantle.
"What is the rule of inaction?" Bridgemorgan was taught to be a promising youth since he was a child, so he naturally couldn't understand the charm of inaction.
"The rule of non-action refers to the Taoist governance method of conforming to nature and not seeking to make a difference. Rita Lima unexpectedly picked up the topic.
"Yo, yes, Professor Rita Rima, do you still understand Taoist thought?" Pang Xiaonan was impressed by Oda Rima's performance.
"Actually, when the gorilla told us his story, I was thinking that he must be the initiator of the inaction, which is also very much in line with what happened to us when we came to New Bloss. Ida Rima held her cheek and looked at the river in the valley.
"Yes, I suspect that the boss is the founder of Taoism. Pang Xiaonan nodded, "It is said that Lao Tzu is the originator of Taoism, but later Lao Tzu was said to be the seventh generation incarnation of the originator of Taoism. ”
"Do you mean that you don't care about the development of things at all, and let them fend for themselves?" Bridgemorgan became interested in Taoist thought, because it was the great theory of the gorilla-Creator, and it was necessary to study it carefully.
"Not exactly what you understand. Pang Xiaonan pondered for a moment and threw out his understanding, "If you want to understand the Taoist thought on the rule of non-action, you first need to figure out the meaning of non-action. Taoism incorporates everything in the world into the Tao, and strives to discover and follow the laws of its operation, and the key here lies in the word of non-action, because in fact it should be a violation of the violation, and after various evolutions, it finally became the present behavior. Therefore, in Taoist thought, non-action should be non-violation, that is, not violating the various laws of the operation of things, and the rule of non-action is to act according to the laws of the operation of things themselves, and not to violate themselves. ”
Oda Rima added: "According to the Taoist point of view, human beings live on the earth, so they need to follow the laws of the earth, the earth exists under the influence of climate, so the earth needs to follow the laws of the climate, the weather is affected by the comprehensive factors of the whole earth, so the weather needs to follow the laws of the earth, and the earth is in the laws of the universe, if the earth does not follow its orbit, it may collide with other planets at any time and be destroyed, so the earth must also obey the laws of the universe." ”
"You two, why are you all so clear about Wuwei?" BridgeMorgan looked at Pang Xiaonan suspiciously, and then at Oda Lima, it seemed that he was the only one who had no understanding of Taoist Wuwei.
"It's because I want to practice myself, and many of the principles of the exercises come from Taoism, so I have to understand Taoist thought. "Pang Xiaonan, these people who practice martial arts or cultivate Taoism, in principle, are all Taoists, how can they not understand Taoism.
"If we are engaged in scientific research, especially in the natural sciences, we must understand the laws of nature, and of course, we must also have an understanding of Taoist thought. "Oda Rima is definitely an outlier among scientists, because strictly speaking, Taoist thought belongs to the category of philosophy and has nothing to do with science, but it is with the blessing of philosophical cultivation that Oda Rima can make today's scientific achievements.
"Then according to your meaning, Wu Wei is a very advanced thought," BridgeMorgan thought of his wealth, "I would like to ask the two of you, can you use Wu Wei to govern the company?"
"No!" Pang Xiaonan and Rita Rima replied in unison.
"You speak first. Oda Rima made a gesture of invitation, and it was very interesting to discuss with Pang Xiaonan, but she was sure that her enlightenment was not as profound as Pang Xiaonan.
"You can never use the rule of inaction to govern a company, because according to the essence of inaction, the company itself should not exist, it is itself a product of inaction. In the same way, the state is also a product of promising. Therefore, the real rule of inaction can only be implemented when the world is in harmony. ”
Pang Xiaonan sat down cross-legged, he wanted to understand the gorilla's realm well, so that he could return to the ship from here smoothly.
"There must be a promising environment for the inaction of governing the country and governing the company, what does it mean? That is, all inaction revolves around the implementation of promising. The state or company only makes one thing to do is to ensure the survival of the organization, and then on this basis, to ensure the survival of the organization as the node and the starting point of doing and not doing. If you don't promise, you won't do anything, if you promise, you'll do nothing, and if you promise too much, you'll be promising. ”
Oda Rima sat down next to Pang Xiaonan and continued to elaborate: "The so-called inaction in the secular sense is relative inaction. It must be inaction with the light and dust. It's that we have to keep running in order to stay where we are. If you really do nothing, then you will definitely start to doubt life. In the same way, the premise of everything is that life threatens your life, and if you don't fight, it is no different from suicide. ”
"Yes, Professor Rita Rima is insightful!" Pang Xiaonan gave Rita Rima a thumbs up.
"Are you still going to sit here and not leave?" BridgeMorgan saw Pang Xiaonan and Rita Rima sitting down, a little anxious, because the sun was about to set.
The sunset is infinitely good, but it is almost dusk, the sunset has filled the sky, and the plants in the valley are covered with a layer of pale yellow gauze, which looks so solemn and sacred.
Pang Xiaonan beckoned to Bridgemorgan: "Mr. BridgeMorgan, don't worry, sit down first, and let's study the route back." ”
BridgeMorgan couldn't go back alone, so he had to listen to Pang Xiaonan's words and sit next to Oda Rima.
"Just now the boss said a word......" Pang Xiaonan was about to analyze, but was interrupted by Lita Oda.
"Can you please stop calling the gorilla boss with your mouth shut? ”
"He's God, what's wrong with calling him boss? Besides, if you call him boss, he may not be willing to admit you as a subordinate, who do you think you are...... Be gentle!" Rita Rima has always followed the fine tradition of a gentleman who does not move his mouth or speak.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with calling him boss!" Bridgemorgan also sided with Pang Xiaonan.
"Hmph, man, you call it......" Rita Rima clasped her hands in front of her chest and tilted her head to the side angrily.
"Okay, then I'll continue to analyze, the boss just said a word, the Tao is natural," Pang Xiaonan pointed to the temple on the other side of the valley, "I think there is a secret hidden here, plus he also said a sentence before, saying that he will not instruct the monsters below again, which shows that our situation is completely fighting with heaven and earth." ”
"Is it more difficult to fight than before, or is it easier to fight?" Bridgemorgan was confused by Pang Xiaonan's analysis, and the second monk was confused.
"Then it's up to us to fight. Pang Xiaonan frowned and fell into thought.
"Can you stop selling Guanzi, okay if you finish it in one breath, it's going to be dark, is it possible that we still have to sleep here today. Rita Rima finally got impatient, and was also a little afraid of the dark night in New Bloss.
"Eh, you're right, that's what I thought, we're staying here today. Pang Xiaonan snapped his fingers, his tone a little excited.
"Oh, no, what a bad idea, the gorillas are there, and they will kill us at any moment. Rita Rima had some horror in her eyes.
"Look," Pang Xiaonan pointed to the fruit trees in the valley, "how good the environment is here, you think, the boss chooses to live here, it must be that the conditions here are good, the scenery is good, and the products are rich, we will rest here tonight, pick some fruits to eat at night, and then see if there are any fish in the river, grill a fish, what a comfortable life." ”
"Then you're not afraid that the boss will take your life?" Rita Rima was still worried about the gorilla's power.
"The boss said that he will no longer direct the actions of his subordinates, that is to say, there will be no monsters to sneak attack us on purpose, but you see, this valley, is it like a place where monsters haunt?" Pang Xiaonan spread his hand, "This is obvious, where the boss lives, who dares to come to make a mistake, those fruits must be left for the boss to enjoy himself, and no one dares to pick them secretly." ”
"Then let's go pick those fruits, won't the boss be angry?" Bridgemorgan was a little worried, if the gorillas knew that they were picking fruits in front of their house, they would take the lives of a few people in a fit of anger.
"I don't think so, the boss said, the Tao is natural, the fruit must be picked when it is ripe, but there are so many hanging on the tree, the boss can't eat it alone, if you don't pick it, it will fall to the ground and rot, the boss should understand us." Pang Xiaonan lay down on the grass, supported his body with two hands, and took a deep breath looking at the beautiful scenery.
"It's all wishful thinking, and I'm still worried about not being safe under the nose of my boss. Rima Oda remembers the tremendous pressure of sitting in front of the gorilla when she was first captured by the gorilla, and she finally understood what it means to be in fear.
"You're wrong, the boss wants to kill us, and he's already done it in the temple. Pang Xiaonan was very confident in his speculation, "Since he released us, he just wants to watch us fend for ourselves, but obviously, the closer to him, the safest place." ”
"Mr. Bridgemorgan, what do you think?" Pang Xiaonan turned to Bridgemorgan, looking for the allies.
"I agree with you, let's rest here at night, anyway, it's getting dark, take a rest and recuperate before we set off tomorrow. BridgeMorgan was still afraid of encountering the hyenas on the way, and the gorilla said that if he did not interfere with the monsters below, he would definitely be in danger of his life.
"The hero sees the same thing," Pang Xiaonan and Bridgemorgan bumped their fists, and then turned to Oda Lima, "Professor Oda Rima, I arranged this way for another reason, do you remember that we spent the night in other places before, and as soon as we woke up, we had a situation, so it is safer for us to spend the night here, at least we won't run into any jackals, tigers and leopards, they don't dare to come here to run around." ”
As soon as she heard the jackal, tiger and leopard, Oda Lima's heart fluttered, "Okay, okay, just listen to you, let's stay here at night." ”
It was originally a two-to-one situation, Rita Rima could only give in, and it was impossible for her to go back alone.
So, Pang Xiaonan took Xiao Tian Lima and Bridgemorgan down the hillside, went to the fruit trees to pick some fruits, first filled their stomachs, and then a few people sat by the river and watched the river to discuss.
"The fruit is delicious, but it's still not as delicious as the meat. "After coming to New Bloss, Rita Rima has also become meatless.
The corners of Pang Xiaonan's mouth lifted and said, "I think, let's still be vegetarian today." ”
"Didn't you talk about fishing in the river?" Obviously, Pang Xiaonan's proposal was not very popular, and Bridgemorgan licked his lips, he had not eaten only vegetarian food for a single meal.
"I just said casually about fishing in the river, and you see, the boss doesn't seem to eat fish. Pang Xiaonan clearly remembered that when they were in the temple, the gorillas just ate some fruit.
"The boss doesn't eat fish, maybe because he doesn't like to eat fish, no, I want to eat fish, you hurry down." Oda Rima had already seen the fish jumping in the river, and immediately thought of the grilled fish she had eaten in the Hallelujah continent, and her mouth was already watering.
Pang Xiaonan actually doesn't care about eating, just like the gorilla said, when you have an appetite, you can eat it a few times, it doesn't matter if you usually have aura to eat or not, and what delicious food can withstand the comfort of aura.
However, it is clear that Rita Yama and BridgeMorgan are more interested in the fish in the river.
"I said, Mr. Bridgemorgan, you haven't been in the water, have you?" Pang Xiaonan wanted to tease the big boss in front of him, "Look, there are a lot of fish in this river, can you go into the water to catch two?"
Bridgem Morgan didn't react for a long time, and all along, he lived a life of food to reach out.
Pang Xiaonan hurriedly added, saying, "You go to catch fish, I'll pick up some firewood, you catch the fish, I'll make a fire and grill the fish." ”
Pang Xiaonan said very clearly, everyone has different division of labor, Bridgemorgan went to catch fish, he went to collect firewood, and when the fish was caught, he was responsible for grilling the fish.
Rita Yama and Bridgemorgan have both tasted Pang Xiaonan's barbecue, know his craft, and there is nothing wrong with his proposal, so he can't do all the work alone.
Bridgemorgan curtly said, "Okay, I'll catch the fish, but I'm not sure, if I can't catch it, I'll have to come." ”
Pang Xiaonan laughed and said, "Mr. Bridgemorgan, everyone has a first time, it doesn't matter if you can't catch it, at least you worked hard...... But be careful, the fish in this river may be piranhas. ”
After scaring BridgeMorgan, Pang Xiaonan got up and walked to the woods in the valley, and Rita Rima grabbed him from behind and said, "What am I doing?"
By this time, BridgeMorgan had taken off his coat, leaving only a pair of boxers, ready to go out into the river.
"You, just wait to eat. "Pang Xiaonan is used to his role, and he has to protect everyone's safety, and he has to arrange everyone's food.
"No, I'm going to do something, I'll go with you to collect firewood. Without waiting for Pang Xiaonan to agree, Oda Rima stood up and walked into the woods side by side with Pang Xiaonan.
"Professor Rita Rima Oda, I want to ask you a question, the boss looks like a gorilla, but it is much bigger than a gorilla, have you studied what species he is. Pang Xiaonan finally asked the question that he had been puzzled for a long time. From the moment he met the gorillas, he questioned his biological knowledge.
"The boss is not a human being, nor is he a creature known to us, so I can't answer this question. In fact, from the moment she saw the gorilla, Rita Rima has been searching for existing knowledge in her mind, trying to figure out what kind of creature it is, but unfortunately, with her current knowledge, she can't explain it at all.
It is generally believed that humans evolved from gorillas.
About 70 million years ago, a meteorite with a width of about 16 kilometers hit the Yucatan Peninsula on Hallelujah, causing a huge disaster, when two-thirds of the animal species on the earth, including dinosaurs, disappeared and became extinct, the golden age of reptiles ended, and primitive mammals escaped the catastrophe after a long period of survival, and then rapidly evolved.
About 50 million years ago, primates evolved rapidly in a radial manner, and higher primates (i.e., apes, such as macaques, golden monkeys, baboons, and apes) were differentiated from lower primate protomonkeys, such as lemurs and tarsiers.
Between 33 million and 24 million years ago, apes emerged from the monkeys of the Old World. The earliest apes (30 million years ago) already had some of the traits of great apes, and later fossils also included forest apes (23 million to 10 million years ago), which were widely distributed and found in Asia, Europe, and Africa. The proto-Conshure ape (13 million to 12 million years ago) in East Africa is already an ape, the ancestor of humans and African apes. The above australopithecus are all forest animals, walking on all fours, and belong to the group of apes climbing trees. There are two groups of apes in existence, gorillas, chimpanzees, and apes, and there is a clear boundary between these two groups, and the divergence between the two groups apparently occurred between 12 million and 15 million years ago.
Archaeopterns first appeared in the eastern and southern part of the tropical region of Hallelujah, and gradually evolved from primitive apes, differentiating into lower apes (such as gibbons), higher apes (such as orangutans), and ancient apes. About 12 million years ago, the earth's crust caused a large rift valley to form in the eastern part of the continent of Hallelujah. The formation of the Great Rift Valley divided it into two independent animal systems, the East and the West, and the barrier of the Great Rift Valley became the key to the separation of humans and apes, and the west of the Rift Valley was still dense and moist thicket, and the apes did not need to make much changes to coordinate in order to adapt to the environment that had not changed much, so they were destined to be still in the stage of apes, such as gorillas. In the east of the Great Rift Valley, due to the gradual decrease in rainfall due to crustal changes, the disappearance of woodland and the emergence of grasslands, most of the ancestral groups that shared the ancestors of today's apes became extinct. About 5 million to 8 million years ago, some chimpanzee-like ape species successfully established founder groups in the area around the rainforest and the savannah, and successfully evolved into Australopithecus. When the study of the differences between protein and DNA finally established a molecular clock, the findings showed that the cut-off point between humans and other animals was 5 million to 8 million years ago, and the history of hominids began.
Australopithecus had to start walking on two legs in order to adapt to their new environment, but they basically maintained their arboreal habits, and Australopithecus did not change most of the traits of their ancestors, such as small size, pronounced sexual dimorphism, males were on average 50% larger than females, small brains, long arms and short legs. Australopithecus is largely a herbivore, and its incisors are much larger than those of humans, and its molars are also large.
There are basically two types of Australopithecus: stout and slender, which are different according to height and weight. Two species of elongated Australopithecus have been proven, both of which have relatively small brains, about 430-485 cubic centimeters. Australopithecus is much more recent and more human-like than the proportions of its limbs. In the southern continent of Halleluia, the stout species of Australopithecus lived in the stout lineage, and in the eastern savannah, the Australopithecus species that lived between 3.5 million and 3 million years ago has also been found.
But it is clear that humans thought they had evolved from gorillas, but the gorillas that Rita saw were even more intelligent than humans hundreds of millions of years later.
"Do you think we have evolved or degenerated?" said Rita Rima picked up a dead tree on the ground.
"Nonsense, it's definitely degraded. Pang Xiaonan has no doubts about this question, because the gods in people's eyes are gorillas, and they are gorillas many times larger.
"But why doesn't he wear clothes?" Although Rita Rima knew that the gorilla was powerful, she still couldn't understand the fact that the boss didn't wear clothes.
"It's more refreshing to be without clothes, and no one will judge him anyway!" Pang Xiaonan jumped up and picked a fruit, and didn't want to put it in his mouth and chew it, "Professor Oda Lima, let me ask you a question, do you like to sleep naked or sleep in clothes at home?"
"I like to sleep naked!" Rita replied without a hint of hesitation, and instantly felt a little blushing, "You don't care how I sleep, and you don't sleep with me." ”
"So, human beings actually like to be naked," Pang Xiaonan pointed out the country with a branch as if he had enlightened, "The boss is just going back to basics, and his approach is natural." ”
"Do you really worship that gorilla?" Rita Rima saw Pang Xiaonan talking to the gorilla on the left and on the right, and knew that Pang Xiaonan was really convinced by the gorilla.
"Nonsense, I'm telling you, my goal is to be like him. Pang Xiaonan took a bite of the fruit in his hand, "Of course, I'm not saying that it is unrealistic to reach his level, but as long as the ideological realm can be close to him, it is not simple." I don't know if I can reach that level for the rest of my life. ”
Oda Rima thoughtfully picked up a piece of firewood and said, "His realm is indeed not simple, and it is indeed difficult for ordinary people like you and me to reach it. ”
"Who is an ordinary man like you?" Pang Xiaonan took two steps forward in advance, "I'm the chosen one, haven't you listened to the boss, after so many years, I am the closest to him!"
"Can you not brag!" Rita Lima watched Pang Xiaonan walk away, and the strength in her hand didn't know where to start.
Pang Xiaonan and Oda Lima came back from collecting firewood from the woods and found BridgeMorgan lying wet on the grass with two large fish next to him.
"Yo, Mr. Bridgemorgan, you've caught a fish. Pang Xiaonan first expressed his appreciation to Bridgemorgan.
"I'm exhausted. Bridgemorgan replied weakly, "It's a lot of effort to catch these two fish, but I'm glad I've grown so big and caught food for the first time." ”
BridgeMorgan was born with a golden key in his mouth as a child, and for the first time in his history, he shot for food.
"Awesome!" Pang Xiaonan flashed a thumbs up at Bridgemorgan, and then turned to Rita Rima Oda, "Can this fish be eaten?"
Oda Rima only glanced at it and said, "Eat it first, this doesn't look like a poisonous fish." ”
