Enter the Immortal Cultivation
Chapter 9 Communication
"...
Lulaling, the happy elf
Your skills may even please the gods."
The singing was filling the air, and the Chan tribe had even begun to dance. Due to their body structure, their dance is three-dimensional, with some shadows of the skill that Chinese people call "juggling". However, the beauty of the rhythm here is vaguely consistent with the rough melody in the singing, and it is simple yet beautiful.
"Tourists from far away listen carefully
The rope of soul, the knot of benevolence and righteousness, Lulaling welcomes you, just like in the distant past
entertain another group of guests
Participate in the game of ‘knot’
The rope of knowledge and the knot of wisdom, Lulaling is certainly the winner of the game.
But the guests are still happy
Because they learned the skills of Lulaling,
Comfort yourself for a long time
From then on, the skill of knotting was loved by the gods.
…”
People from China who have traveled many light years have gradually integrated into this joyful atmosphere.
Chen Feng looked at the pile of bugs in front of him and wondered whether he should eat the third pupa.
Monks in the elixir-forming stage do not have high material needs. They only need to regularly ingest some simple organic matter to maintain the little quality lost in their metabolism. He kind of likes the alien flavor here, but he's not sure how productive these seemingly happy and impoverished Chen people are - what if one bite he takes is a day's ration for a Chen tribe?
It's not his style to make others endure hunger just for his own temporary pleasure.
While he was hesitating, the cheering sounds around him gradually died down. Xue Bufan stood up and said, "Okay, it's over, let's go."
"Is it over?" Ai Qinglan looked at Xue Bufan in surprise. She had just been messing around with a few Chu clan larvae, and now she was completely in a state of "not having enough fun yet."
"The Chen people believe in eating small amounts and frequent meals. They eat once every two hours, and each meal will never last more than a quarter of an hour." Xue Bufan said: "They have been eating for half an hour now, and it is already a 'grand banquet.'"
Sure enough, some low-status Chen tribe had already begun to pack their things.
When most of the Chen tribe dispersed and some Chen tribe monks were retying some knots under the leadership of the big leader, Xue Bufan clapped his hands and focused the attention of all the Chinese people.
"Everyone, let's talk about our situation now. Since there are many settlements of the Chan tribe in the world, and we only have about two thousand monks investigating this time, the manpower in each settlement is not enough. Then, the dragon tribe It only said that their history comes from the Chen tribe, but it did not tell what the Dragon tribe learned from them..."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Yueluo Liuli and Gongsun Dang intentionally or unintentionally. But these two people still had the same attitude, without any explanation. Xue Bufan continued: "Because the 'title' is unknown, we must study all aspects of this race."
"Every aspect?"
"Isn't this possible?"
Everyone found it incredible. In Tianling Ridge, almost all branches are studying the "human race", but the human race still has not fully understood itself, let alone the mystery of creation. Do you want to rely on more than thirty people to study everything about this alien race?
Whimsical.
"We are just doing a preliminary investigation and sorting out some things that need attention. In four months, after the dragon tribe's training is completed, the seniors in the Yuan Shen stage will come to take over everything here." Xue Bufan said: "That's right. Because the scope of the research is wide, we should work in groups, with two or three people in similar research fields working together to collect all the information about the Chen clan. "
"In addition, there are several rules that must be emphasized again. First of all, when you come into contact with the Chen tribe, you must ensure that there is an image record - even if it is just to say hello; secondly..."
Xuanxing Temple and Gulingya are indeed more professional in this regard. Xue Bufan talked about a lot of disciplines and finally said: "We formally hold a small meeting every four days. The rotation period of the world here is exactly four times that of China, so, Whenever the sun rises to its highest point here, that’s when we have meetings and communicate.”
"By the way, the disciples of Guiyi League and Wanfamen are trying to build the illusion base array these days. After about eight Shenzhou days and two Tianxuan days, we can communicate with people from other groups. Before that , We must make some results.”
According to their own sect, everyone began to group themselves. Chen Feng hesitated a little. What he is good at is undoubtedly the two categories of "individual consciousness" and "Shinto". It is certain that the Chen tribe's nervous system is different from that of the human race, and their souls may not be the same, so the only thing he can study is Shinto. But looking at the irrefinable power of humanity in the big leader, it is clear that this is a civilization that does not even have primitive totem beliefs.
For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Xue Bufan greeted: "Junior Brother Chen, come here."
"Um?"
‘“Before my pill formation stage, I learned the best in the two fields of ancient Poseidon ecology and updated monster culture. You are good at humanity, so... why don’t you come here to help me?”
Chen Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's okay."
It is not impossible for him to choose one or two topics temporarily, but after all, it is not as efficient as following the disciples of Gu Lingya.
After a few minutes, everyone was divided into groups. Xue Bufan made some statistics and announced the disbandment. Before leaving, he also said to Ai Qinglan: "Junior Sister Ai, I will borrow Junior Brother Chen temporarily. Don't be nervous, we don't have many beautiful junior sisters there, and usually he won't get his turn."
Ai Qinglan responded with a burst of laughter.
But when Chen Feng silently followed Xue Bufan, he felt a little embarrassed.
Xue Bufan himself is a good person, but Chenfeng and him, who are in Gulingya and Yangshen Pavilion, usually don't have much communication. Back then, because of Ai Qinglan's incident, there was a bit of... subtle hostility between the two. This kind of emotion is normal when communicating, but when we are alone, all kinds of awkward feelings are amplified.
After a while, the two walked to the residence. The so-called "residence" looks much like a huge cocoon. It is a huge sphere tied to a branch of a tree. Some kind of light green silk thread of unknown texture overlapped and formed a ball shape between the branches. The opening of this room is directly below. After Chen Feng and Xue Bufan entered, Xue Bufan skillfully pulled up a rope. Driven by the rope, the opening of the "cocoon" slowly closed.
Chenfeng originally thought that this "cocoon" was a place to shelter from wind and rain. But the interior decoration of this house subverted his perception. Countless silk threads are interspersed vertically and horizontally to form a rope network, allowing this small house to be divided into layers and rooms. Some rope nets were covered with wax blades to create a stable floor.
Considering the identity of the Chan tribe as an arboreal species, this kind of house is quite convenient.
Xue Bufan took out a lighting charm and activated it, then placed it in the air. A ball of light illuminated the room softly. Chen Feng frowned: "Well, this house has no windows..."
"The ventilation of the wall is very good, so there is no need to open windows." Xue Bufan said casually.
"The lighting is not very good."
"Lighting? The concepts of lighting between the Chen tribe and the human race are very different." Xue Bufan said: "Their vision is completely different from that of the human race. The visible light frequency band of the Chen tribe is generally lower than that of the human race. In other words, they cannot detect purple. Light. If you hold a piece of purple cloth in front of them, they will think it is no different from black. However, the near-infrared rays and some mid-infrared rays that humans cannot detect are visible to them. , it’s colored in their eyes – the infrared rays are reflected.”
Chen Feng immediately understood: "For light, the longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency, and the stronger the penetrating power... This wall is transparent in the eyes of the Chen tribe!"
"Yesterday, a junior fellow from Spirit Beast Mountain happened to be carrying a booklet for testing color weakness, so we were surprised to find that all the Chen people are purple-blind, but they pointed at the black parts on the cover of the booklet They said they were in two colors - the cover of the booklet was black and had an anti-counterfeiting mark that reflected infrared rays. "It's a coincidence, anyway, it's a good report."
"It's quite a coincidence." Chen Feng nodded and found a place to sit down.
"Junior Brother Chen, how about we talk things out now." Xue Bufan walked back and forth in several rooms, seeming to be cleaning up something. But this did not prevent him from speaking to Chen Feng: "At first, I was somewhat dissatisfied with you because of Junior Sister Ai's incident. However, now I have given up on that aspect and have no intention of arguing with you. What I care about now is , is the secret hidden by the Chen people.”
"It's really embarrassing to say this." Chen Feng smiled bitterly: "I won't give in on issues of principle, but if it's official business, I won't be vague."
"Very good, then there is no problem." Xue Bufan walked up to Chen Feng holding a large calculator: "I just imported the files collected these days and sorted them out a little. We want to study the society of the Chen people , we must first know some of the physiological characteristics of the Chen people. Let me tell you what we have learned in the past two days."
Chen Feng remembered the debate about "color vision" and "windows" just now and nodded.
Culture and physical characteristics seem to be two far apart areas, but in fact, all customs are related to the physical characteristics of the race. For example, the Chan people's houses do not have windows. If you don't know that the visible light frequency band of the Chen tribe is much lower than that of the human race, I am afraid that the average human race will still think that these houses are extremely claustrophobic and that they are some kind of secret and sacred shrines.
If you want to understand the culture of a race, you must first understand the physical characteristics of the race.
However, Chen Feng's expression changed after seeing the "information" displayed by Xue Bufan.
"Senior Brother Xue, you..." (To be continued ~^~)
