Chapter 1407 1407. History (15)

On the long wall, lights shone past, and Li Du kept seeing colorful images.

An image in front of him is a red bison, surrounded by a small figure on the top, bottom, left, and right. The figure is drawn in the form of a matchstick, which is simple and clear.

The little people hold sticks in their hands, and the bison has sticks stuck in them. Obviously, the picture shows them hunting animals.

Looking at the painting, Li Du stretched out his hand to touch it. It was not painted, but chiseled on the stone, and then painted with red paint. After many years, it is still well preserved.

He knew they were petroglyphs, but not what era they were from.

Rock art is a kind of stone carving culture. Human ancestors used stone tools as tools to describe and record their production methods and life content in rough, simple and natural stone carving methods. Precious cultural heritage for future generations.

The pictures left by ancient humans on the rocks, the earliest is said to have a history of 40,000 years, and the primitive tribes that continue to modern times are still making them. Today, the rock paintings discovered by people are all over the five continents of the world, and they are mainly distributed in Europe, Africa, India and China in Asia.

There is no doubt that the longer the rock art survives, the greater its value, but some primitive tribes in modern times also draw rock art, and the value of this rock art will be lower.

For example, some tribes in Africa and some Indian tribes in North America, they were still barren and primitive until the last two or three hundred years, and they still retained the tradition of drawing rock paintings.

Some petroglyphs have been found in North America, which are left by Indian tribes, and their value is relatively small, because the value of petroglyphs lies in history and the lives of ancient humans.

Li Du thought about it for a while, and released the space-time flying insect to reverse the time to observe these petroglyphs.

The time-space flying insect has grown up, and now it can reverse the time of thousands of years.

Unfortunately, time turned back, and Li Du saw the appearance of the painters of the rock paintings. They were some Indians in simple clothes.

First of all, he can see the origin of the petroglyphs, indicating that they are less than a thousand years old. Second, the painted Indians have sackcloth clothes, which proves that they are less than 500 years ago.

Li Du laughed at himself. What was he thinking? These rock paintings must not have a long history, because there is a stream in the cave, and the humidity is very high, which will seriously damage the color of the rock paintings. If they really have a history of tens of thousands of years, The petroglyphs have faded long ago.

Since the birth history is only a few hundred years old, the value of these petroglyphs is very small.

But it was also a coincidence to find this thing, it was too much of a coincidence, Big Mark Love ran wildly along the stream, ran into this hole and found them, it was very dramatic.

In any case, the petroglyphs have some history and value, and may be useful for investigating the history of the local Indian tribes.

Others came in, made torches, and walked down the stream.

Big Mark Love said: "I was hiding in here, the sun was fine, and then I looked up and saw these things, I was shocked, and I said, 'God, I must be too tired and hallucinating' But in the end I found out that this is not an illusion, they really exist!"

Li Du said: "So you have the idea of ​​using this thing to bargain with me?"

Big Mark Love said with a wry smile: "That was the worst plan. I actually didn't expect that you would really keep chasing after me."

After a pause, he said again: "I think I have created enough obstacles, and I still can't stop you if I didn't expect it. This is really a hell!"

Li Du patted him on the shoulder and said, "Because your opponent is one of the strongest in the G9 border defense team."

Big Marklov immediately felt relieved: "Ha, so that's the case. When you all appeared at the entrance of the cave, I knew that I must meet a powerful character, but I didn't expect that I met the most elite soldiers in Germany."

He paid a military salute to Brother Wolf, expressing his admiration for the strong man, and Brother Lang returned the military salute to him, and the two felt a little sympathetic towards each other.

Firecracker looked at the rock paintings carefully with a torch, and said, "Oh my god, who made these paintings? What do they record? Quickly take a picture, we have encountered history!"

"Low the torch, you've roasted them, and it will destroy them," Brother Wolf said.

Firecracker walked in and said, "They have been destroyed by history long ago, and the rock paintings behind have faded, very badly."

Then he said, "Hey, I bet they're tens of thousands of years old, do you think we're going to be famous?"

Li Du smiled and said: "No, they don't have that long history, maybe only a few hundred years."

He turned back time and saw the result, so he spoke with certainty.

Firecracker turned back and said: "You are wrong, boss, they must have a history of tens of thousands of years, I bet."

Brother Wolf said: "Are you betting with the boss? Then you will be miserable. I have never seen the boss lose a bet."

Li Du folded his arms and nodded to him, saying, "Tell me, what are you betting on?"

Firecracker laughed and said, "I haven't figured out the conditions yet, let's talk about it later, as long as both of us think it's reasonable, how about it?"

Li Du said: "Okay, I bet."

The firecracker made a shooting gesture at him: "You are bound to lose, boss, come and look here."

Seeing his firm tone, Li Du's heart moved. He walked wearily deep into the cave, and saw other carved portraits appearing on the mountain wall.

As Firecracker said, some of these portraits have faded, and the further they go, the more they fade, and the sense of vicissitudes of history becomes stronger.

In this way, he knew that he had miscalculated. From the surface of the petroglyphs, it could be seen that the petroglyphs behind were not from the same era as the ones in front.

Li Du released the space-time flying insects again to reverse the time. This time, it was different from before. These petroglyphs had already appeared in the earliest time he could see.

They are indeed not a product of an era!

Li Du was refreshed, which was beyond his expectation. Perhaps the rock paintings here are of some value.

The discovery of firecrackers proved this point. He patted a painting above and said, "Look at this, this is a saber-toothed tiger. It became extinct in North America 10,000 years ago at the latest, and now only fossils remain."

Li Du looked at the petroglyph, on which a big cat was drawn with simple lines. Its head was a close-up, and the carving was relatively realistic, with two long teeth exaggeratedly exposed at the corners of its mouth.

There are more than one portraits of this animal, and there is another one where it is hunting, throwing down a horse-like animal, and clearly inserting a long tooth into the neck of the prey.

Firecracker continued: "Primitive people didn't know what a fossil was. They painted these pictures, obviously they had seen such a scene, so the saber-toothed tiger was not extinct in their time."

Li Du was willing to admit defeat: "You won!"
