Speaking of this, Liu Xingxing was even more talkative than usual, dancing with joy and saying excitedly, "Mythology is the foundation of a race and a civilization. Studying mythology can truly reveal the character of a nation. This is extremely meaningful!"
As if infected by Liu Xingxing's emotions, Li Ziyu also became interested and asked, "Give me an example."
Liu Xingxing said without hesitation, "The pirates were once notorious, known as the Demons from the North. Why were they so fierce and crazy? It's because of their connection to mythology. In their mythology, battle and death have always existed. Even at the end of the myth, there will be Ragnarok, when all the gods will fall, and finally a new creation will begin."
"It is precisely because of this myth that they must die on the battlefield, because only true warriors can enter the temple of the gods and drink and eat meat with the gods."
Li Ziyu thought about it seriously, a surprised expression on his face. It seemed to be true. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Anything else? Tell me more."
Liu Xingxing chuckled and said to Li Ziyu, "Then tell me something practical and useful. Let's talk about those tomb robbers. How did they find the ancient tomb? Why can't others find it?"
"It's still connected to mythology. For example, what is the Feng Shui dragon vein? It's something that extends from mythology. Ancient people looked for tombs according to the Feng Shui dragon veins. Cremation cemeteries weren't popular back then. Finding a Feng Shui treasured site naturally requires a series of methods. If you don't understand mythology, how were these tombs identified?"
Damn, this is real.
Li Ziyu widened his eyes and looked at Liu Xingxing in surprise.
This guy is a talent.
Liu Xingxing looked smug, his hands on his hips as he said, "No matter how far a civilization develops, there will always be remnants of myths and beliefs. These myths and beliefs will be integrated into people's lives and cannot be separated. For example, we make the sign of the cross every now and then, and we use chopsticks to eat."
"Only by studying mythology can we understand civilization and better hunt for treasure!"
Li Ziyu put away all his contempt and said seriously, "Xingxing, you are right. I underestimated Shenhua."
He figured it out. What Liu Xingxing said was absolutely right.
Myths are the original mark of a nation and a civilization, and their foundation.
No civilization or nation can completely get rid of its own myths, otherwise it will mean extinction.
Just like the civilization that Li Ziyu lives in, there is the concept of yin-yang fish.
What is Yin and Yang, and how did Yin and Yang come about?
Yin and Yang, Yin is the Moon and Yang is the Sun, which are transformed from Pangu’s right eye and left eye respectively. Isn’t this a myth?
Looking at the stone slab brought by Liu Xingxing again, Li Ziyu's face showed a solemn expression.
The stone tablet clearly told them that there was a god who created everything, including the four seasons, forests, hills, and plains. He also created other gods and other life forms!
But this should not be the myth of the Orcs. The myth of the Orcs should be the myth of their ancestors. So what race on the grassland once had this myth?
Looks a bit like...human?
Is it possible that there was once a human race on the grassland?
Li Ziyu couldn't help but frown.
Liu Xingxing stood beside him, pointing at the stone slabs and saying, "I found these stone slabs in that underground city. This proves that the history of this grassland is much longer than we imagined! Before the orcs, there were other races that ruled here!"
