On the Seven Towers

"Start." Wang Jiyuan gave the order, and ten soldiers formed two triangular tactical formations and rushed towards the team of about twenty students. After all, they are professionally trained soldiers. Once they get serious, they will have the aura to charge into the battlefield.

Opposite them, Ji Yijun and Ye Zi stood at the front. Ji Yijun put the stick on his shoulders and put his hands on his hips, making a posture that he thought was cool. Ye Zi, on the other hand, held a stick in both hands and took a half-lunge step. Although she was impatient, she was very steady when fighting. Although the two of them were very skilled, the students behind them were not so calm. They originally formed a loose square formation, but when they saw the soldiers rushing over with wooden sticks, they were all nervous and at a loss. Some people Some people wanted to move to the side, and some people wanted to retreat, which immediately caused chaos.

"Don't be afraid, hold on tight and follow the plan!" Ji Yijun turned around and shouted. After he shouted, the students calmed down a little and reluctantly formed two small square formations.

"You deal with the ones on the left, and leave the ones on the right to us." After that, he and Ye Zi rushed towards the five people on the left. The other twenty or so people were busy attacking the five warriors on the right.

Ji Yijun and Ye Zi were not afraid at all when facing the five-man team. After rushing for a few steps, it was time for a hand-to-hand encounter. Ji Yijun shouted loudly, picked up a wooden stick and threw it at the leading soldier. The soldier was about to raise his stick to block the ground, but found that Ji Yijun was completely out of control with the thunder and the raindrops. This stick turned out to be a false move. The stick that was originally holding the wind and thunder suddenly changed its path silently. The soldier at the front of the formation was diverted. Ye Zi followed Ji Yijun and saw the opportunity. When the soldier staggered, he swung down and he immediately fell to the ground and was chewing mud.

Seeing that their comrades were defeated in one round, several other warriors waved their sticks and attacked vigorously. However, their aggressive fighting style was of no use in front of Ji Yijun and Ye Zi's skill. They clearly had a numerical advantage. , but was suppressed and beaten. Ji Yijun and Ye Zi cooperated with each other to continuously create opportunities. It didn't take long for the team to completely collapse as the second and third men were knocked down.

However, when Ji Yijun defeated the last warrior and looked to the other side of the battlefield, his nose became angry. The team of students was actually broken up by the opponent! There were guards scurrying around everywhere. It turned out that although the battle on the right was twenty people fighting five, the noncommissioned officer leading the team was very smart and used constant running and impact to pull the students into two formations. After a while, the two good square formations disappeared. As soon as the people dispersed, the inexperienced students were quickly driven around by the warriors who cooperated tacitly. When several people were knocked to the ground and screamed, the battle became a rout.

"Let's go over and knock them all down!" Ji Yijun and Ye Zi wanted to go over and work together to defeat the remaining five warriors, but they were stopped by Wang Jiyuan.

"We can still fight, why should we stop!" Ji Yijun shouted angrily.

"Because you have already lost. If a team of twenty-two people only has two people left, what's the point of fighting anymore?" Wang Jiyuan said seriously.

"That's because they are so useless!"

"No!" Wang Jiyuan's voice was not as loud as Ji Yijun's, but more powerful than him. "You are the leader of the team, but you abandoned your companions and made them cannon fodder. What else is there besides the bravery of ordinary men? You are so useless!"

Ji Yijun wanted to speak, but was stopped by Ye Zi. She said with some confusion: "But we can still defeat them all."

"No matter whether the opponent wins or loses, you all lose. Such a victory is undesirable."

"But isn't victory the result of hard work and sacrifice?" Ji Yijun asked again.

"Think about it, how many people are there when we travel here?" Wang Jiyuan asked.

"More than seven hundred."

"How many locals are there?"

Ji Yijun was silent. After a while, he said: "I understand, preserving strength and letting everyone survive is the first priority."

Wang Jiyuan glanced at everyone on the playground and said: "So, from now on, remember what kind of victory we want!"

————————————————————————

In the classroom, after Zhang Hong ran away, Xiao Chen and others carefully assigned work details.

After a while, Du Mei couldn't help but said: "If people like Zhang Hong come back in time, we will all be doomed. It's better to wipe our necks early than to be angry and tricked to death by them."

"Xiao Mei, don't say that. After spending too much time on campus, sometimes people can't recognize the reality. He thinks he is in the zoo, but he doesn't know that he is already in the Amazon jungle." Liu Wan said, "He will eventually We understand Teacher Luo’s protection for him, so we just try our best to do our own thing.”

"Well, ignore him, but Teacher Liu, how should we teach Spanish? Is it the same as in class?" Du Mei asked.

"I think you should divide it into two lines, arrange daily conversation courses for most people, and conduct in-depth teaching for a small number of people who have more time and learn quickly. Expand our team as soon as possible." Xiao Chen interjected.

"We will choose a suitable range based on the communication with the locals. I have also had contact with the villagers who came to trade in the past two days, and what they said is really close to modern Spanish." Liu Wan responded, "But this It also gave me a big question, how could people from two worlds speak the same language?"

"Teacher Liu, why is it impossible? I think the universe is so big, there are all kinds of surprises, it's just a coincidence." Ding Lunquan said curiously.

Liu Wan shook her head and said: "You must know that language is a reflection of daily life. The etymology of many words will be influenced by ancient languages ​​​​and surrounding languages. For example, many Chinese characters in Japanese come from this way. Other words have Allusion, because something like this happened in history, this word came into being. For example, in Chinese, "Tuqiongdajian" comes from the allusion of Jing Ke, and if there was no such thing as Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin in history, there would be no such word. But there are a lot of Spanish words here, but they are very different from those on Earth, which baffles me.”

"For example?" Ding Lunquan scratched his head, as if he still didn't fully understand.

"That day I met that Silla looking for Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen was discussing issues in the conference room. He said we had too many meetings, and I clearly heard him use the word 'mitin'. You all know this word Transliteration from the English 'meeting'. Could it be that there happened to be an English-speaking country near here, and the locals happened to introduce this word in this way? Let me use another analogy, as if you met an alien, he said Not only in Chinese, but also saying "Ye Gong loves dragons", "Returning the perfect jade to Zhao", and even reciting a few lines of Tang poetry, don't you think it's incredible? "

"If there really is such an alien, then he must have visited the earth a long time ago." Ding Lunquan said with a thought.

Xiao Chen nodded and said: "Xiao Ding's statement actually makes sense. Luo Ling and I have discovered this phenomenon before. I think this is related to a fundamental issue." He paused for a moment, and then said word by word : "Why are we here."

Several people were deeply attracted by this topic and looked at Xiao Chen intently.

"I think there is only one explanation for the Spanish here, and that is that Spanish speakers appeared here a long time ago and taught the locals to speak this language. In fact, all these locals are those who traveled through ancient times. Descendants of the dead! It is very likely that this world is connected to the earth in some way! We are definitely not the first people on earth to come here."

Xiao Chen felt that the people in front of him were breathing heavily, and he continued to analyze: "Actually, there is a lot of evidence. For example, species, I have seen horses, cattle, sheep, dogs, chickens and other livestock here. Plants such as cypress and pine trees are exactly the same as their counterparts on the earth. Not to mention how there are the same species on different planets, even if they are the same species, they should not evolve into the same shape. So I would rather believe that they are. They came directly from the earth to this world and then multiplied.”

"Senior, are you saying that all kinds of creatures on the earth are constantly brought to this world? This forms the biosphere here?" Du Mei covered her mouth in surprise and asked, "But why has this never been heard of on earth? What about the matter?”

"Aren't there always mysterious disappearances? I've seen such things in several magazines, and there have been special programs on TV." Ding Lunquan said excitedly, "I remember ghost ships, the Bermuda Triangle, Guston The Big Bang is an unsolved mystery.”

Du Mei nodded and said, "Yeah, that's right. And if the animals that disappeared in the deep mountains and old forests, maybe no one would know about them at all."

"There is a problem here." Liu Wan frowned and stood up, "I study language, so I have to look at it from a linguistic perspective. The origin of Spanish here is at least 20th century Spanish. Many words and usages have evolved in more recent times. It doesn’t exist in early Spanish. But Ciro told me that this language has been used in this area for thousands of years, and there is no obvious change in time.”

Xiao Chen frowned. Indeed, this problem seemed difficult to explain with his guess. Several other people also fell into deep thought. The original space problem was even more difficult to understand when it was involved in time changes.

After a while, Luo Ling spoke up: "We have broken through space, will we also break through time? The time on both sides may not be equal. You remember the saying that one day in the sky and one year on the earth. Maybe this Between two worlds, that’s it?”

"Ah? No way." Du Mei shouted, "Then I stayed here for more than ten or twenty years, and then returned to the original world. Only a few days have passed. In front of my boyfriend, wouldn't I just Have you become a forty-year-old woman?"

"Who knows if you can go back? What kind of sorrow are you feeling?" Ding Lunquan said with a bitter smile.

After hearing this, Xiao Chen also smiled bitterly in his heart, yes, who knows?
