Beibei roams the magical starry world

The time ship came to the west of present-day Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. This was Haojing, the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty in China (southwest of present-day Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province) around 1000 BC.

Beibei and her friends looked out and saw a group of people wearing long robes and top hats. They were tall, with solemn faces, holding Wat boards (Wat boards are a tool for officials to record government affairs and etiquette. They are long strips, made of bamboo or Made from wood chips).

This was the dress and manner of officials in the Western Zhou Dynasty at that time, showing solemnity and dignity at all times.

This group of people is now busy formulating various etiquette regulations, including sacrifices, banquets, court meetings, weddings and funerals, etc.

Outside the door, a group of soldiers wearing armor, holding bronze halberds, and carrying bronze swords were guarding the door.

The time ship took everyone around the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The friends saw tripods, gobs, jue, 杝, etc. made of bronze. Its patterns are exquisite and its craftsmanship is superb.

The time ship traveled through five hundred years and came to a man. This man was tall, nine feet six inches according to the size at the time, with a square forehead. He wore coarse clothes. He was willing to learn and practice everything, so he was a versatile man. This person is Confucius, the Confucian saint. Now he is just a child who doesn't understand anything and is running around.

Decades later, Confucius stood in a large hall with a king sitting opposite him. Confucius was talking about how to build a harmonious society. The king must govern the country with virtue so that the people can live in a stable and happy environment.

Not long after, Confucius once again walked out of the hall gloomily. Then he came to a courtyard, where Confucius explained the principles of morality and benevolence in front of a group of children, large and small.

Time passed by, and Confucius was in his fifties. At this time, he was wearing coarse clothes and straw sandals, carrying a small box behind his back, and taking Yan Hui, Zigong, Zi Lu, and Zi Xia with him, he began to travel around the country, including Lu and Wei. State, Song State, Chen State, Cai State, etc.

Confucius met with many kings and told them about governing the country with virtue and letting the people live in a stable and happy environment. But the kings wanted to hear advice on how to dominate the world, so Confucius always left the king's hall feeling depressed and depressed.

In the school, Confucius visited and debated with many great gods worshiped by later generations, such as Laozi, Xunzi, Mozi, etc.

After the time ship left China, it came to the Indus River Basin.

"The Harappan civilization was located in the Sindh and Punjab provinces of present-day Pakistan. We will take a look at the work and life scenes of people at that time." Robot Xiao Cong explained

Wheat, barley, cotton, flax, etc. are grown in the farmland, and farmers cultivate with bronze sickles and hoes.

A group of people armed with bronze axes, bronze swords and bronze spears went into the forest to hunt.

Some people were digging silt to dredge the ditch in the river, and a new irrigation channel was being built not far away.

The time ship entered a small city with an area of ​​about 2.5 square kilometers and a population of about 34. It is composed of the Acropolis and the Lower City (residential area). The streets in the city are neat and the drainage system is perfect.

In one site, some craftsmen were making pottery, female workers were weaving, and children were learning to read. It is reported that the Harappan civilization had a unique script, which at that time had about 250-500 characters.

The spacecraft left the Indus River Basin and arrived in the Central American region of present-day southeastern Mexico.

“The Olmec civilization emerged in the tropical jungles of the San Lorenzo Highlands in Central America around 1200 BC. It is the most famous civilization in Central America and is considered to be the origin of Mesoamerican civilization and the foundation for the later Mayan civilization. , Aztec civilization and so on laid the foundation." Robot Xiao Cong explained

In the time ship, the friends saw crops such as corn, beans, and pumpkins being grown in farmland.

Some people are hunting, others are fishing, and in the distance craftsmen and slaves are building large pyramids, temples and other buildings.

Some workshops in the city are making pottery, and others are jade workshops.

Beibei found that the jewelry here was different from other places. The crafts made with wood, bones and shells here were particularly strange and beautiful.

"I really want to buy one! Unfortunately, they are all digitally generated." Beibei sighed.

The hieroglyphics carved on some wood carvings are said to have not been fully deciphered yet.

"Prehistoric time travel has come to an end. What do you think?" said the robot Xiao Cong.

Beibei said: "It took humans more than two million years to change from the Paleolithic Age to the Neolithic Age. It took humans five thousand years to go from the Neolithic Age to the Bronze Age. It took about one year to go from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. Fifteen hundred years. I found that the history of human civilization is progressing faster and faster, and humans are becoming more and more capable of utilizing large natural resources."

Xiaohui said: "Changes in social systems determine the development of human civilization. From bloodline families to federations, to slave society, feudal society and changes in capitalism, the wisdom and ability of every ordinary person are released, promoting the development of civilization. develop."

Jack said: "The development of high technology determines the development of society. From stone tools to pottery, to bronze, to iron, to firearms, to steam, to the Internet, to artificial intelligence, society is developing faster and faster."

"Yes, in the universe, the levels of intelligent life are divided into primary, intermediate and advanced levels.

Primary intelligent life forms refer to intelligent life forms that have an incomplete understanding of the universe and have not set foot outside their home planet.

Intermediate intelligent life forms refer to those life forms that have realized that the universe is infinite and can escape from the living planet to conduct the most rudimentary extraterrestrial exploration, but are still unable to recognize other intelligent life forms in the universe.

Advanced intelligent life forms refer to life forms that can discover other life forms and intelligent life forms in the universe and communicate with them.

Another distinction is based on the ability to use matter in the universe. Advanced intelligent life can use all matter in the universe, while primary intelligent life can only use the basic functions of matter. For example, if you face water, you can use it to make a steam engine, but the ancients could only use it for cooking.

Now you have begun to evolve from primary intelligent life to intermediate intelligent life. What you are thinking about now is how to conduct interstellar exploration. When you leave the solar system, you will become advanced intelligent life. Although you are still young, you have made a qualitative change in just a few hundred years. The transformation was completed within a year. It is suspected that you belong to some kind of advanced intelligent life gene. "The robot Xiao Cong said.
