This was an abyssal era. Warlords and priests were kings. There were no rulers in the true sense. Local nobles began to become hereditary and independent. The society was in a state of anarchy. Human flesh became food. Except for the inedible pyramids, there was almost no present.
There were things that the Egyptians were unwilling to eat, from soil to grass roots to the mud in the Nile River.
Of course, in the age of the abyss, there are also some faint lights.
The sanctity of royal power began to decline, which directly led to the rise of the civilian class in ancient Egypt in the subsequent era, and the loss of reverence for the gods. People sought spiritual liberation in the darkness of the abyss... and this was only limited to some nobles.
.
Fierce archers and sinners can be seen everywhere. People live in fear and need to hold up a shield when going out. Some people beat their brothers and mothers violently and hide behind bushes and rocks to rob passers-by. The poor become rich.
, the female slave wore lapis lazuli jewelry, but it was quickly robbed by stronger people.
Until the end, the peasants who had nothing, waved their hoes and smashed them at the noble nobles...
...
Yuzai's heart was filled with sighs. Everything that was glorious had turned into dust before she even took a photo of Biouye.
At least let yourself take a photo with Gu's Winged Dragon.
Of course, the Temple of the Sun seems to be still intact, which is not bad. Otherwise, if you go to ancient Egypt and only take pictures of the Pyramid of Khufu, then it is really the same as not going.
What Yu Zai wanted to take was the Sun Temple, the primitive water and lotus flowers inside the Sun Temple, and the winged dragon Gu. He was not interested in taking photos with the Pharaoh's tomb.
Unless this Pharaoh can play cards, Pharaoh Khufu can't play cards.
Atum, who may be able to play cards, is an ancient god, not an ancient king, and even the Egyptians don't know whether he is still alive or dead.
Yu Zai believed that if this ancient god was still alive, he would definitely seal the card on the spot.
However, the turmoil is only temporary. As long as the ruler is not a fool, he will not kill everyone on that land. A large population represents a sufficient labor force. What's more, this is just an internal division in Egypt, and the pressure from the outside is not special.
There are many, at least not as many as in Sumer.
Look at Sumer, everything is in chaos. I brought Yunlong from the Shanxi area of the Han Dynasty to help out.
Do you understand this is called international humanitarian assistance?
"So, the abyssal era will eventually pass. Climate change can kill a large number of people, but it cannot kill everyone. Some people will survive. In another sixty or seventy years, an era of prosperity will begin again."
"Just like what is said in your Egyptian creation myth, everything in this world is cyclical... Of course, your prosperity is only the prosperity of slavery, the nobility and monarch, and even the pharaoh.
The prosperity of the people is by no means the prosperity of the people.”
"When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer."
Yuzai set up his own small blackboard and began to write on it with chalk. Based on the many climate characteristics Finnis said, a schematic diagram of climate change soon appeared.
"North of the Nile is Lower Egypt, leading to the great river that surrounds the world?"
Fennis nodded: "Yes."
"No, that's not a big river, but a sea. As you know, the big river to the east of the Nile is not a river, it's another sea. So, starting from here, I am going to refute your creation myth."
Yuzai began to educate Finnis about the world view.
Of course, Fennis also heard about the debate between Yuzai and the scroll priest before, so she was curious: "If according to your statement, the master, the star is not tied to anything, why doesn't it fall?"
"If the goddess hadn't pulled the stars out of the sky, they would have fallen to the earth. We have seen such a scene before!"
Yu Zai: "Those are meteorites and shooting stars. When they enter the sky and the earth, they will emit dazzling light due to violent friction. This is not difficult to understand, but it is quite troublesome to explain. I will tell you about it later.
Bar."
"As for the stars in the sky, they are actually very far away from you. In our land, our ancestors turned into stars after their death. They will always watch us in the sky. Those are some very far away places. In fact, they have nothing to do with the sun.
The difference is that the sun is too close to us, so the sun’s light nourishes us.”
"The sun and the stars are the same thing, and the moon and the earth are the same shape."
"In our land, there are three interpretations of the sky and the earth. One is that the sky is round and the place is flat, the other is that the sky is full of energy, and the third is that the stars are shining through the night. Which one is more correct requires further observation.
Only with the development of civilization will it be gradually confirmed."
"As for your land, the problem is that the climate around the world is getting warmer. Just listen to me first. The earth is a round ball, surrounded by a thick layer of air. This air has many components, not
Empty and formless.”
"In the past few years, the air temperature around the world has been rising, and now it has leveled off. In different lands, due to different mountains and terrain, as well as various reasons, the air flow direction in each region is also different. When the temperature
rises, an abnormality occurs."
"In my land, because of the rise in temperature, heavy rains often occur, the desert turns into green soil, and the cold moves further north. Warmth spreads across the earth, grains grow, and floods fill the air."
“And in this land, surrounding the coast of the Northern Sea, the land here is hot and dry in summer, warm and humid in winter; hot and dry in summer with little rain, and warm and humid in winter. This climate makes the surrounding rivers full of rain in winter and dry in summer.
exhausted."
"In winter, controlled by the westerly belt, frontal cyclones are active, the climate is mild, and precipitation is abundant. In summer, under the control of the subtropical high pressure, the airflow sinks, resulting in a hot and dry climate with few clouds and abundant sunshine."
"So, when the temperature rises, the balance is broken. At the same time, in Upper Egypt in the south, the savanna climate turns into a tropical desert climate, and the characteristic of this climate is that the evaporation of water vapor is extremely huge."
"As for the water in the Nile River turning into blood, I think it's because there is a large number of toxic algae that reproduce in the water. This is the case in high-temperature seasons. The water flow is slow and nutrients accumulate. These algae reproduce rapidly, dyeing the water red."
Yu Zai drew many circles on the small blackboard.
The flow of the atmosphere is just a breath of heaven and earth, causing countless people to live or die by it.
