Xiuye's Interstellar Journey
Chapter 6 Learning the Common Language
In this way, Lu Wei settled down on the Estrida. After Carl got him a watch-shaped optical brain, Lu Wei stayed in his room all day and began to study the common language hard.
This is very difficult. Although with the help of a translator, Lu Wei can understand everyone's words, but he doesn't know any words in the common language, so he has to ask Karl for help.
"You want me to help you find a lingua franca teacher?"
"Well, although there are many teaching videos on the optical brain, it seems that there is no basic one."
Lu Wei is worried about this. The characters of Common Language are similar to English in the past. They are composed of 38 special symbols similar to letters. He doesn’t even know what the most basic symbols represent. Let him learn to use them. The composition of the text is even more difficult than learning English at the beginning.
Carl was a little distressed: "I'm afraid there is no one on the spaceship who can teach you. Everyone is very busy recently."
"Busy?" Lu Wei blinked, "What's the matter? I can help if necessary."
Karl explained: "It's nothing serious, but in a short while, we will arrive at the planet Tristaan. The law and order there is not very good and we need to pay more attention, so everyone is a little nervous during this time."
"Tillistaan?" Forgive him, for Lu Wei, who can only hear but not see, geography and so on are just floating clouds, and he can at most look at the picture to guess the meaning—and guess it is not accurate.
"Well, Dirista'an is a very prosperous entertainment planet. There are many forces from various star regions, and they are not very friendly to each other, so the law and order in this area is not very good."
Having said that, Karl and the others are not worried about these things, they are just being on the alert habitually.
"That's it." Lu Wei frowned, with a tangled expression, "Then do you have a dictionary or something? The explanation is in Earth language."
Karl spread his hands, "No, you are the only one on the spaceship who is an Earthling, and no one needs that thing. I can stop buying it when I get to Tristaan, it has everything there."
"How long until it arrives?"
Carl said, "It will arrive tomorrow night. Before that, do you want to come to my place? You can ask me if you don't understand anything."
Well, the above reasons are actually just for Karl to get along with Lu Wei, who made him stay in the room all the time.
Lu Wei is naturally willing: "Okay."
"Your room is here?" Lu Wei was surprised that Carl lived next to him.
"come in."
Compared to his own room, Karl's room is very luxurious, with some weird decorations everywhere.
Seeing Lu Wei staring at a colorful mask on the wall, Karl explained: "I got this in Teheri. It is a mask carved from the bones of the most ferocious local beasts. It is said that it has the function of praying."
No matter how Lu Wei looked at it, he couldn't see that the weird-looking mask that seemed to have broken the palette couldn't look like it could pray for blessings, and it was almost scary.
Seeing Lu Wei's strange expression, Karl regretted bringing the mask back because he thought it was strange.
"Come and sit." Carl patted the seat beside him, "What do you not understand?"
Lu Wei walked over and sat down beside him, turned on the optical brain, pointed to the content inside and said, "I don't understand anything."
Karl looked at his beautiful side face in fascination, a pair of beautiful eyebrows seemed to be frowning because of the distress of the master, the charming phoenix eyes were half dozed under the curly eyelashes, the tall pretty nose, and the light-colored lips slightly Sucking, the long white hair hangs down smoothly, covering the young man's delicate chin.
The usual isolation suit was tightly attached to his body, outlining a slender figure, and the slim waist that couldn't be grasped made Carl secretly swallow his saliva.
This is really a bewitching beauty who turns all living beings upside down. I'm afraid that if she goes out, she will be swallowed up to the bone by those evil-minded guys.Carl was annoyed secretly, he really didn't want him to be seen by others.
It would be best to keep him in a cage, every day that only he can appreciate.Thinking of this, Carl was ready to move.
"Why are you in a daze, I'm asking you something."
Lu Wei looked at the people around him with dissatisfaction. He asked the question just now, but no one answered for a long time. When he turned around, he saw Karl staring at him and didn't know what he was thinking. His eyes were shining.
At that moment, Lu Wei felt a smile, and his hands touched the double swords in the backpack, waiting for Karl to chop him up if he activated it.
When Karl came back to his senses, the gloom in his eyes was immediately swept away, and a gentle and cheerful smile appeared on his face again.
"I thought of something troublesome, I'm sorry, please say it again."
Lu Wei looked at Karl suspiciously, making sure that the dangerous feeling on his body was gone, and the small movements in his hands stopped.
"I don't understand these things, please tell me."
Carl saw that it was a basic chart of common language, which couldn't be simpler. He nodded and started to explain it from the beginning.
Carl's voice is very pleasant, although it is not deep or magnetic, but just like his person, his voice also has an indescribable gentleness. When he looks at you intently and speaks to you, it is difficult Who would not be fascinated by his tenderness, but that is just an illusion, Carl's heart is actually colder than anyone else.
It is indeed a pleasure to listen to such a voice lecture. At least Lu Wei learned quickly. He listened while taking notes, and quickly memorized the charts and began to learn simple basic characters.
If the student is smart enough, the teacher will also have a sense of accomplishment, especially if he is such a beautiful student. This teaching method of stealing money while teaching can continue forever.Carl twitched his lips and thought happily.
So after today's class ended, Carl told Lu Wei that he could come back tomorrow.
"Aren't you busy?" Thinking of the busy figures on the boat, Lu Wei felt that the person in front of him was really too idle.
"As a good leader, you must believe in the abilities of your subordinates." Carl automatically blocked the pile of documents on the table that needed to be corrected without changing his expression.
"Then what am I going to do? I'm also your subordinate." Lu Wei, who had been in the house for a while, finally realized that he seemed to be a member of the ship. If everyone was busy, it would be unreasonable for him to be alone.
No wonder the crew members I met occasionally didn't look very friendly, and some looked at him contemptuously. They thought it was xenophobic at first, but now it seems that I didn't fulfill my duties and made them dissatisfied.
Regarding Lu Wei's question, Karl really never thought about it. He would say that just to fool Lu Wei.
"I don't have anything to do for you right now, I'll arrange it after you learn the common language." It seems that Lu Wei still needs to find something to do, so that the other party will be annoyed before he can fool anyone.Carl thought to himself that he never liked to force people, and Lu Wei's way of appearing before was really weird, so he would not use force even more.
"I have one more thing to ask you. Is the gold and silver I brought worth now? I want to exchange them for currency."
"This kind of metal is still very valuable, but if you exchange it, you won't be able to exchange much. You can go to Carolina, she has always liked those jewelry, and she should give a good price. Why? I'm short of money ? There should be no need for money on the spaceship, right?” On the Astrid, all daily necessities are rationed.
Lu Wei nodded: "Didn't you say we're going to land? I thought that since I'm going out, it's always good to bring some money with me, and I also need to buy some daily necessities. For example, a change of underwear and socks, although I still have A few sets, but not a good fit."
Underpants... Hearing this word, Carl couldn't help but think of Lu Wei wearing only it. When his nose itched, he quickly covered it and told himself not to think about it.
The things that Lu Wei has now are all searched by Karl in the spaceship. The goods on the Astrid are all valuable commodities. Naturally, there are no such personal items. Even the few things that Lu Wei is washing now are from the ship. The small crew brought unworn ones, but for Lu Wei, they were indeed too big.
Carl got up and came back with a card, "It just so happens that your ID is ready, and it can also be used for deposits besides personal information."
"How to use this?" Lu Wei stretched out his hand to take the card. It was a very ordinary card. There were some stripes on the silver-white base, and there were a few large Chinese characters in the middle. Lu Wei only recognized the word "fen" in it. , what a shame.
"Like this." Carl took the card back, pulled Lu Wei's left hand with the optical brain, and swiped the card through a gap next to the optical brain, "Okay, then the optical brain will record your information , just click here when you need it." He demonstrated to call out personal information for Lu Wei.
What appeared on the optical brain was a [-]D image of Lu Wei's whole body, with detailed information beside it. Karl explained it to him, all of which were the most basic such as name, gender, and age.
"You said that you seem to be 19 years old. This age is a minor, so there will be a lot of inconvenience. I changed the age to 30 years old."
"30 years old? Am I that old?!" Lu Wei said angrily, does he look like 30 years old?
Karl explained: "It's not that you are old. People now live for more than 300 years. 30 years old is the legal age of adulthood for people on earth. Modern people are not easy to age. You will know when you see it in the future."
After hearing this, Lu Wei stopped thinking about it, but was a little worried, "But we can only live for a maximum of 100 years there, and the old age is very fast."
"Don't worry, Carolina has checked you. Your physical condition is as healthy as the people on Earth today. You will definitely live longer than 100 years. This may be caused by the radiation in the universe." Carl comforted, "It just doesn't work, Modern medicine is very advanced, and genetic modification drugs have become popular, and if necessary, you can inject genetic modification once.”
Only then did Lu Wei feel relieved.
This is very difficult. Although with the help of a translator, Lu Wei can understand everyone's words, but he doesn't know any words in the common language, so he has to ask Karl for help.
"You want me to help you find a lingua franca teacher?"
