The stars move slowly in one direction. According to the experience on earth, the place where the stars will fall is in the West. But in this strange time and space a thousand light-years away, all experience is unreliable. The more real the feeling is, the more absurd the fact may be.
M42 Nebula hangs on the ridge line in the West and slowly falls to the back of the mountain. Only half of the huge and thin Barnard ring occupies half of the sky. A more dazzling globular Nebula rises from the eastern sky like a large red balloon. Bright stars hide in the balloon and shine brightly blue and white.
Aoki touched out the willow branches in his arms and sniffed them under his nose. A familiar smell from his hometown dispelled the discomfort caused by distance and strangeness.
A meteor cuts through the sky with a bright wake, leaving a beautiful straight line on the sky curtain. When it crosses less than half of the sky, it suddenly turns into a parabola, starts to fall, and disappears in half. Just when you thought it had burned out and disappeared, it suddenly appeared like a ghost, flashing a big S shape in the sky, flying from the south to the north, then straight up and back to the sky.
People who have experienced the coming of the giant moon and the surging waves are not surprised. They know that this must be another distorted space.
Everyone is tired and needs a rest.
Many temporary shelters have also been built in situ's savage camp, which is similar to the savage camp opposite. After inquiry, I learned that the savages led by situ had just arrived here.
Their original island slowly approached the sun, or it might not be the sun, but other stars. Anyway, the disaster happened like that. The river dried up, the forest lit a fire, and the savage tribe was engulfed by the sea of fire. Their patriarch held up his Scepter in the super hot sun. After ten days and nights, he finally fell down and became a mummy like corpse.
Situ took the scepter in his hand and led the savages back to the lake. The whole island has become a sea of fire. Only the lake in the heart of the island has water. The lake seems to connect with the endless deep sea. Even the sun can't dry it.
They persisted for a few days until there was a heavy fog on the island, and finally came here through the boiling lake.
Situ spoke lightly, as if he had just waited for a red light, crossed a road and came to the lawn of the city park for barbecue. However, Aoki clearly saw that Ivan and Boris showed a painful look on their faces when situ talked. He could see that the two men had lived and died even if their experiences were not as rich as petru's, and the things that could make them feel pain must be extremely unbearable.
When the giant moon was in the sky and the waves rolled up, the feeling of despair and suffocation was still deep in everyone's mind, and situ and they obviously experienced a more terrible disaster than the giant moon. The most important thing is that they struggled with the disaster in despair for more than ten days!
The savages prayed all night until the sky in the East turned white and the stars on their heads gradually disappeared.
The savage priest in charge of prayer came and respectfully handed the silver scepter to situ. They chattered a few words. The priest went down and took some savages to collect wild fruits on the trees and early morning dew. The remaining savages patrolled around the camp vigilantly and observed the movement of the savage camp opposite.
Mrs. Larry said, "it turns out that Mr. stone is also a linguist. He can not only understand the savage language, but also speak it so fluently. I really admire him!"
Situ smiled and said, "madam, I'm flattered! When it comes to linguistics, you're the real expert. I'm just opportunistic."
Mrs. Larry said: "Mr. stone, why be too modest! No one can think of any language, but a civilization that has developed over countless years. There is no way to be opportunistic. If so, please don't be stingy and be honest. There are still many ancient characters and disappeared languages in our written and archaeological history!"
"Madam, you think too highly of me!" situ laughed. "I can't translate the words dug out from the ground. I can communicate with savages entirely because they are all living people. If they are dead, I have no way at all."
He said and looked around. "It's not difficult to learn the language of these savages. Among you, Mr. Aoki, Professor Su and Mr. petru can do it easily."
Aoki and suhuilan seemed to think of something, while petru shouted inexplicably, "I can't even speak the local dialect of those places in Africa. How can I speak the words of savages?"
Situ smiled and said, "language is also a kind of memory. As long as you can dream, you can get it, no matter what planet the other person says."
His words flashed like lightning in Aoki's brain. He remembered that he could speak many languages for no reason, as if those things were originally stored in his memory. He always wondered whether he was a Xueba before he lost his memory. Now he suddenly realized that he was not a Xueba. Even if he was, he might just be a Xueba who cheated by using his dreams.
There is no time limit for dreams, which means that as long as you have enough mental power, you can learn a lot in dreams. You can enter other people's brains and easily steal other people's achievements for yourself. Although this requires a little mental cost, what is it to use a little mental power for people like Aoki?
Compared with other things, it is more difficult to obtain language, because the process of learning to speak cannot be condensed and visualized. Unlike a paper or a design scheme, it can be displayed immediately. If the other party is not a linguist like Mrs. Larry, if you want to learn his language from him, you must constantly switch between conscious communication and language communication with him in your dream, which is equivalent to learning a new language in the most primitive and clumsy way, and if you are not a linguist, This process is very boring even in dreams.
"That's not fair!" cried Alice angrily. "You're cheating! You're hanging up!"
Mrs. Larry was not without envy, but she didn't feel a little jealous or unfair. Instead, she seemed to have discovered the new world and said, "you really should stand up earlier. Many of our problems in Archaeology and Linguistics may have been solved long ago."
Situ shook his head and said, "madam, it's not that we don't want to stand up. In fact, we have done everything we can do, but some things are more than we can do. The process of civilization can't be changed by one or two people."
He looked up at the disappearing star sky, "in the vast universe, the earth is not even a grain of sand..."
Mrs. Larry smiled and said, "I agree with you, but when civilization meets a bottleneck or history enters a dead end - there will always be heroes, won't they?"
She looked at situ and Aoki.
Petru snapped: "let them do their big things, madam. You want to learn, and I'm willing to serve you! I'll follow you wherever you go in the future. I can help you dig underground stones, learn their language in other people's dreams, and protect your safety..."
Mrs. Larry smiled gratefully at petru and said, "thank you, petru. You're a good man."
The crow, who had already had enough to eat and had slept on the branch of the tree, just flew to the top of the green wood. He wanted to ask about breakfast. When he heard petru's words, he croaked: "Wow, pirates are good, croak!"
At this time, there was another wild man's whistling sound in the valley.
