Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

Chapter 164 A civilization that does not require writing?

When we were excavating the Sanxingdui site, there were indeed many viewers paying attention.

And the news headlines at that time were all about the excavation of Sanxingdui.

But after that moment of limelight, not many people paid attention to it.

But it can be regarded as witnessing history and seeing the process of the fourth excavation of Sanxingdui.

But these four excavations only covered two thousandths of the Sanxingdui site.

There are many things in it that are still unknown at all.

The camera returned to Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen said in a strange tone: "Have you noticed a very strange place?"

"Didn't anyone notice it?"

Ye Zhen wrote the three words Sanxingdui behind him.

What strange thing?

The Sanxingdui ruins are already strange enough?

Is there something even stranger?

The audience doesn't understand.

"Sanxingdui is weird enough, is there anything more weird?"

"But what Ye Zhen said is indeed a bit disharmonious."

"What? Could it be that there is some shocking secret!"

Some viewers just felt like something was wrong.

But nothing was found to be wrong.

Some archaeologists went through what Ye Zhen said in their minds.

"I know what's missing."

"Yes, that thing is an inexplicable place now."

"I don't believe he can even solve this!"

Apparently some historians and archaeologists knew what the strange place Ye Zhen was talking about was.

Some outsiders in the film also didn't realize it.

Professor Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Ye has said that there are so many weird places in Sanxingdui."

"This civilization is so glorious and rich, but it always feels like something is missing."

"Old Luo, do you know?"

Of course Lao Luo understood what the strange place Ye Zhen was talking about.

In this regard, the current academic community does not understand it either.

Lao Luo sighed: "Of course I know. Do you know why there are so many doubts about the Sanxingdui ruins?"

"The Sanxingdui Ruins make people more confused the more they dig into it?"

Professor Zhou didn't understand and asked: "Yes, this Sanxingdui is indeed very weird."

Because Professor Zhou himself is an academic master in front of ancient documents.

I also have contact with archeology.

"Logically speaking, after this archaeological excavation, there should be more and more things."

“Then the more you know, the less foggy it becomes.”

"But Sanxingdui makes people become more and more confused the more they dig into it. It seems to reveal an evil nature."

The situation is indeed exactly as Professor Zhou said.

I saw Ye Zhen saying: "At the beginning, everyone doubted that the Shang Dynasty did not exist at all."

"It just exists in history."

"But why did everyone later accept that the Shang Dynasty was real?"

"Because some cultural relics and bronzes from the Shang Dynasty were excavated?"

Ye Zhen shook his finger in front of the camera, "No, it's because of the unearthed oracle bone inscriptions."

"At that time, a Chinese medicine called dragon bone was found to have writing on it."

"This is how the Oracle was discovered."

"Since the oracle bones were discovered, a lot of them have been deciphered."

"But there are still many oracle bones that have not been deciphered."

"A total of 5000 words have been discovered, but only about 1500 have been deciphered."

"Now if any of you can decipher an oracle bone script."

"An oracle bone inscription costs 10 yuan."

"If you can decipher the remaining 3500 words."

"That's a bonus of more than [-] million."

Many viewers heard this news for the first time.

"Wow, if one oracle is cracked more and more, can one get [-]?"

"3500 is 3.5 million! Make a fortune."

"I understand, I'm going to crack the Oracle now."

“I understand, I finally know what’s so weird about the Sanxingdui Ruins!”

However, some viewers are curious about what Ye Zhenti is doing?
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I believe someone has discovered it."

"Yes, the Sanxingdui ruins are so developed."

"Not a single word has been unearthed?"

After hearing this, everyone finally knew what was strange about the Sanxingdui ruins.

That's right, no written records have been unearthed.

"Why does the Sanxingdui site become more confusing the more we dig into it?"

"Because no writing has been unearthed here at all."

"Without written records, many things can only be guessed."

"But if there is a written record, even just a few words."

"We can all use some clues to find the root cause."

"Why does such a civilization not have any writing?"

It is indeed what Ye Zhen said.

No writing has been unearthed from the Sanxingdui site.

Because some Chinese cultural relics were unearthed, no matter what they were.

There will always be more or less text, the difference between more and less is just the difference.

Just like some bronze vessels from the Shang Dynasty, there are inscriptions on them.

Even if it is placed on the antique market, the same is true.

The prices of bronzes with inscriptions and bronzes without inscriptions are very different.

Why can we confirm that Shang Dynasty civilization existed?

It's because of Oracle.

After hearing Ye Zhen's explanation, the audience immediately discovered something was wrong.

"Indeed, why haven't any texts been unearthed here in Sanxingdui?"

"It's impossible for such a developed civilization to not have any writing."

"Does it mean that everyone here is mute? Isn't this normal?"

This is an unsolved mystery in Sanxingdui.

Even after excavation, there are no fragments of any text.

That’s why the more people dig, the more confused they become.

Some archaeologists think so.They believe that there must be writing in Sanxingdui.

It’s just that they haven’t dug it out yet.

In so many remaining places that have not yet been excavated, there must be written records.

It is impossible for such a developed civilization to be without writing.

Some other historians think so.

The ancients at the Sanxingdui site may have written records in a different way than those in the Central Plains.

Where do we generally record words in Chinese records?
During the Shang Dynasty, the results of divination were carved on the turtle board.

Later it became a seal carved on a bamboo slip.

Then came the four great inventions, paper, and then we had books.

Some historians speculate that the ancients in Sanxingdui may have written words on silk.

That's right, it's written on silk.

If this is the case, it can explain why there is no text in Sanxingdui.

Because silk is extremely difficult to preserve.

Compared with turtle boards and bamboo slips, silk is too fragile.

And there are not only signs of smashing bronzes here in Sanxingdui.

There are also traces of being burned by fire.

So maybe the silks that recorded the text had already been burned.

But this is just speculation.

The scene returned to Ye Zhen's side.

"Without the discovery of writing, is there such a possibility?"

"That means they don't have to speak? They don't have to communicate through words."

Don’t speak, don’t use words to communicate?
After hearing what Ye Zhen said, the audience felt that Ye Zhen was crazy.

"How could they not speak? Are they really all mute?"

"How can we communicate without using words and sign language? Do you want to say that they are all a sign language civilization?"

"You're kidding, how can such a civilization exist?"

No one thought that the situation Ye Zhen mentioned was possible.

This is too much nonsense.

But Ye Zhen said something next.

"What if they are advanced enough that they have abandoned the primitive communication methods of voice and text?"

Everyone felt their hearts skip a beat.

In fact, the way humans teach knowledge now is very primitive.

“The way we humans now acquire information is by learning.”

"Generally we rely on teachers to learn."

“Writing on the blackboard and conveying information through the teacher’s voice.”

"But this method of information transmission is too low, and there is loss in the process of information transmission."

"What does it mean to speak human language? Some people listen to lectures in the left ear and out the right ear."

"But what if the ancient people in Sanxingdui relied on consciousness to communicate?"

Using consciousness to communicate?
The audience was shocked.

"If it's communication using consciousness, wouldn't it be telepathy? It's something from movies."

"But the ancients in Sanxingdui may all be people with special abilities. Everyone is a superpower! They have all awakened the pineal gland."

"So they simply need words, no need to speak, and they can use consciousness to communicate."

Some historians found Ye Zhen's explanation very outrageous.

"What nonsense! What nonsense!"

"What about using consciousness to communicate? Do you think you are writing a novel? Are you watching a movie?"

"But in the last century, there were indeed many masters who claimed to have telepathy."

"That era when people with special powers were everywhere?"

Apparently some people from the older generation remembered what happened back then.

Some people think Ye Zhen is talking nonsense about using consciousness to communicate.

This is simply nonsense.

But other people think this is not impossible!

Some viewers who were watching the show carefully recalled what was said at the beginning of the show.

"Do you still remember those bronze longitudinal masks from before? There is a hole between the eyebrows, which is the third eye!"

"Yes, this is indeed possible."

"But there aren't that many people with super powers. It's not scientific."

"Do you still remember those ancient witch doctors in the previous show? The witch doctors who made holes in other people's heads."

"By the way, that's the brain-computer interface, the opening that connects everything!"

In this way, everything seems to be connected.

A brain-computer interface that our current technology cannot achieve.

If it is really possible to make a hole in the brain and connect an external interface.

Then you can receive data and exchange information.

What other words are needed?It's simply not needed.

This technology can be achieved by the Wu clan who have mastered black technology.

Could it be said that the people at the Sanxingdui Ruins really used consciousness to communicate?
There is no need to use words anymore.

If this is the case, it would be terrible. It is no wonder that no text can be unearthed here.

Because others don’t need it at all.

Just when Ye Zhen wanted to continue talking.

Producer Chen looked at the time and it was almost time.

Because this time "Into Science Popularization" was broadcast throughout eastern Guangdong Province.

Even Director Huang came to the scene to supervise.

There can be no room for error.

Producer Chen gestured to Ye Zhen outside.

Ye Zhen already understood.

"Happy times are always short."

"That's the end of today's program. We'll see you next time." Ye Zhen raised his hand and said goodbye to the audience in the camera.

With the sound of the ending song.

We have entered the advertising stage.

"Huh? Is this the end?"

"There's still a lot that hasn't been said!"

"Complain! I want to complain!"

The interest of all the viewers watching the show has just been aroused.

Ye Zhen actually said that the show was over?

But looking at the time, a long time has passed.

After watching Ye Zhen's show, all the viewers felt a sense of emptiness.
