Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 1796 Weird Planet

"I? The Wandering Earth?" After seeing the super engines in the distance that were powerful enough to propel planets, the first thought that popped into Lan Nuo's mind was that he might have come to the world of The Wandering Earth.

The journey through time and space led to a vast ice field. With all these planetary engines, it was definitely "The Wandering Earth".

However, whether his guess is true or not needs further verification. Although it looks like "The Wandering Earth", the problem is that he did not see a star similar to the sun. It may be that the novel has moved away from the solar system in the later period of the plot, or it may be that he guessed wrong.

In short, it was impossible for him to continue staying on this vast snowfield. The temperature below minus 50 degrees Celsius was enough to freeze him to death in a short time.

If he had not taken into consideration possible extreme situations when traveling through time and carried equipment that could maintain his body temperature in low temperatures, he would probably have been killed as soon as he landed.

At this time, the only possibility to survive is to move towards the direction of the huge engine, where one might find the entrance to the underground shelter. As long as one can hide there, one can save his life.

Lan Nuo only brought some simple dry food and cold weapons with him, and no equipment for dealing with snow. But this did not bother him. He disassembled and spliced ​​the armor plates on his body, and quickly spliced ​​the inserts inside the bulletproof vest into a pair of skis with the simple equipment on his body.

On this snowfield that has been flattened by the strong wind, using this pair of skis can not only move forward at high speed, but also prevent the body from sinking into the snow, making it difficult to trek.

Taking advantage of the difference in terrain, Lan Nuo slid towards the bottom of the giant engine at lightning speed.

When you get close to the giant engine, you can clearly feel the temperature rising. After all, even without the sun, the huge heat generated by the engine itself will still make the surrounding area an oasis.

So even if he just got a little closer, it would be enough to relieve the situation of him being about to freeze to death.

Although the natural environment is harsh, Lan Nuo thinks it can still be overcome. The more critical issue is the human environment here. Long-term space travel may cause any trouble. In the novel "The Wandering Earth", a civil war broke out. Both sides of the civil war have thrown antimatter bombs at each other. In many cases, the natural environment is far less than that of humans.

But soon, Lan Nuo found that the situation might be better than he thought. After approaching the planetary engine, Lan Nuo saw a heavy truck passing by on the road. After discovering him, the truck stopped on the side of the road. A man got off the heavy truck. He was wrapped in a tightly protective suit like a space suit.

In the cold wind, he grabbed Lan Nuo and said, "Are you in trouble, friend?" Lan Nuo naturally didn't understand this sentence, but since he met a living person, Lan Nuo naturally started to rehearse, and through testing from different angles, he gradually figured out the other party's language.

So after the rehearsal, he still managed to understand the meaning of this sentence, or to be more precise, he guessed the meaning of this sentence.

Before he could say anything, Lan Nuo was pulled into the truck. The truck driver seemed quite enthusiastic. After observing the truck driver's appearance, Lan Nuo determined that the other person looked not much different from a human.

The only thing that puzzled him was that the language spoken by this person was not a language he was familiar with. Logically speaking, even with the passage of time, the world language of The Wandering Earth has changed to a certain extent. In the end, the language used by everyone is likely to be derived from Chinese and English. At the very least, there should be a lot of traces of these two languages ​​in vocabulary and grammar. It is not difficult to see this from Japanese and Korean. Languages ​​and characters are not something that can be created just by wanting to. Under the premise that there is already a mature and efficient language, other languages ​​will be affected little by little.

The language of this world not only did not have any familiar words, but even the grammar seemed a little different. It took Lan Nuo a long time to adapt before he could communicate smoothly with the other party.

"Thank you! If you hadn't helped me, I might have frozen to death outside."

The truck driver took off his helmet even though the car was heated. He said in the unique language of this world, "You're welcome. Helping others is our traditional virtue. We have had the tradition of helping others since ancient times. As early as the Kingdom period, we had legends about nobles helping farmers in trouble, and eventually being saved by the farmers when they were in trouble themselves."

Although this description is lengthy, it is actually due to translation problems. This story is summarized in the language of this civilization similar to the idioms in Chinese. It is a simple and clear word, similar to the allusions such as "Dong Shi Xiou Pin" or "Cao Mu Ji Bing".

Lan Nuo felt a little strange. He felt that the truck driver was a little too enthusiastic and had no doubts about him at all. He started introducing this and that to him right away.

"When we get to the shelter, I'll take you to register your identity and introduce you to other people who come to the shelter."

Lan Nuo naturally would not refuse. Being able to integrate into the society of this world would naturally help him to obtain more information. Accustomed to doing grassroots work in various environments, Lan Nuo began to skillfully ask the truck driver how he usually worked, how long he worked every day, and how he maintained the equipment.

What kind of energy does the sky truck use? How do those planetary engines work? The truck driver seemed to have no sense of confidentiality and told everything he knew.

Moreover, he seemed to be quite knowledgeable, and whenever he spoke he would quote from classics. He would always say things like how we were in the past, or how things were like this or that thousands or tens of thousands of years ago. He would also cite an idiom or an allusion whenever he had nothing to do, and would explain the meaning of the allusion to him.

Lan Nuo felt a little strange, but couldn't tell what was strange about it. It seemed that the only problem was that the truck driver was too enthusiastic. But this could be explained by cultural differences. Even the same civilization would have different attitudes towards strangers in different eras. Maybe that's their culture. "You ask if it's hard for us to work 12 hours a day? It's hard, yes. But hard work is also our traditional virtue. Let me tell you, in the imperial era, there was blah blah..."

After listening to the truck driver telling four or five anecdotes, Lan Nuo finally realized that something was wrong. Normally, no matter which civilization one is in, one should be familiar with these anecdotes from one's own civilization since childhood. When meeting a stranger, who would have the time to talk about these well-known things?

Lan Nuo thought about it and felt it was a bit risky, but he still tried to ask: "Do you know that I don't belong to your planet?"

"I know, I know. I can tell from your expression. We all wear protective clothing when we go out here, and we don't speak with your accent. But you are amazing. You learned our language in just a short time. The two who came to us before studied for several years and only recently mastered our language. Now they have completely integrated into our team. I will take you to meet them in a while. Your accents are quite similar. Maybe you are from the same place."

Lan Nuo: "..."

He was completely confused. The truck driver knew from the beginning that he did not belong to this planet. Were these people too used to the third kind of contact? How did they survive until now without any precautions? However, this also explained why the truck driver started talking about such and such as our traditional virtues and the meaning of such and such allusions. He would definitely not talk like this to people of his own civilization, but if he was talking to an outsider, it would be reasonable to introduce him like a tour guide.

The situation was somewhat unexpected, but it seemed to be developing in a good direction. At least there was no problem with survival. At least from the current performance, the world he had descended into should be a world ruled by a hospitable civilization.

Lan Nuo thought about it and asked him, "Why do you want to push your planet away for no reason? I see a lot of engines on the planet. Where are you planning to send your planet to?"

Since the other party has accepted the fact that I am an alien, it is convenient to ask him many questions. The other party is a man who is willing to tell me everything he knows, so I can just ask him all the questions.

"Why do you think we have to leave? Of course it's because our sun exploded. A group of civilizations from the stars visited our planet before. They told us that there is a terrifying super life form living on our planet. And this super life form is about to wake up and destroy us.

Therefore, we had to flee. This group of super-advanced space civilization members helped us build the planet's shield and engines. They also dug out the super life form that was parasitic on our planet. It is said that the super life form was very powerful. Later, the aliens sent the super life form into the star and detonated the star to destroy it. Because our star has already detonated, if we want to continue to survive, we can only wander in the universe until we encounter the next stable star. "

Lan Nuo fell into deep thought. This plot seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't think of what work it was from. But it was obvious that this was not "The Wandering Earth". It was not difficult to see this from the truck driver's language and his acceptance of aliens.

"I see. How long will it take you to reach the next star?"

"It may take thousands of years. Anyway, I probably won't see that day while I'm alive. Maybe you can, it'll be a bit difficult for you, but the other two outsiders should be able to. We tested their genes and found that they are a species with a very long lifespan. Maybe they can live until they reach the next star."

Lan Nuo became even more curious. He thought there might be other aliens, so he had to ask them about them.

"Can I ask about the other two aliens? They're not human?"

The truck driver nodded, "It's definitely not human. How can humans live that long? One of them has a life form that is a bit close to humans, but it looks like an artificial race. There are many traces of artificial modification in its genes, but these modifications are all optimizations. It's like humans have created a more powerful new human, and they have a lot of innate spells. Let me tell you, that guy can teleport. He caused us a lot of trouble when he first came. I really envy him for being able to use teleportation as his instinct!

The other one was even more amazing. It was an elemental life. This was the first time we had seen it. It was a bit like the Star People. But its life form was closer to ours. It was hard for the Star People to even communicate with us. This elemental life was better. Before we gave her a physical examination, we didn't even realize she was an elemental life.

At first, they were quite wary of us. Later, after chatting, we found out that they were actually a couple. And the most incredible thing is, they actually gave birth to a pair of children before they fell here inexplicably.

Really, I don't know how they did it. Carbon-based creatures can actually give birth to children with elemental creatures. And they gave birth to a boy and a girl, who inherited their respective bloodlines. But according to them, because of the mixed blood problem, it seems that the two children have some problems inheriting the racial talents. The two children were separated from them when they were very young. It's really pitiful. Unfortunately, our ability is far from enough. There is no way to send them back. "

As more and more clues came out, Lan Nuo gradually locked onto the world with the greatest possibility. The truck driver finally drove into the shelter at this time. The heavy door opened, and the prosperity in the underground shelter was far beyond imagination. Lan Nuo did not expect that their supplies were much richer than he imagined. Logically speaking, after leaving the star, the earth was separated from the most abundant solar energy resources, and various species should have been extinct. People living in the shelter should have difficulty in obtaining supplies, especially food. However, Lan Nuo saw that the underground shopping mall here was brightly lit, and there were all kinds of snacks inside. Although he did not recognize them, both races were human. The taste was also quite similar. Just smelling the taste made him feel that it must taste good.

But Lan Nuo felt very strange. Although the level of technology here was not low, according to his observation, it should not be enough to support such a luxurious consumption and life. Not to mention the full implementation of the rationing system. It is impossible to eat whatever you want like now. The mall is brightly lit day and night. Although he was puzzled, he still registered his identity under the guidance of the truck driver. And under the guidance of the other party, he went to find the other two aliens.
