Dawn of a New Era

Chapter 26: Common Language

In fact, it is very simple to see who is a master. It depends on how many people are watching. Generally, masters can always attract a lot of attention.

Chen Shouyi was not in a hurry to practice, so he looked over one by one.

At this time, he paused, and there was a large group of people in front of him. Even the coaches of many nearby archery gymnasiums glanced away from time to time.

This is a middle-aged man with an indifferent expression. He has a lean body. Under the casual sports short sleeves, the bare arm muscles are slender and tight, as if twisted with steel wires. Every time the arrow is shot, it makes a sharp whistling sound.

His movements are full of rhythm, as if with a certain rhythm. Although the speed of shooting arrows is not too fast or slow, it gives people a continuous feeling like flowing clouds and flowing water.

Chen Shouyi watched quietly for a while, then walked to the rest area, leaned on the seat, closed his eyes, and seemed to be resting. He sat for two hours, and when he opened his eyes, the The middle-aged man is gone.

However, he didn't care, he got what he deserved.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"I want a three-hundred-pound bow!"

Chen Shouyi received a bow and arrow and three quiver bags, and went to one of the empty seats.

He tried the strength of the bow and found that it was a bit light for his current strength, but he didn't plan to change it. A three hundred pound bow was already the assessment standard for a male warrior apprentice.

Generally speaking, an ordinary adult can draw a recurve bow of forty or fifty pounds. A bow and arrow exceeding one hundred pounds is already beyond the scope of hunting bows and entering war bows. Inside, the power is comparable to that of a rifle.

Like swordsmanship, archery also has a standard set of power and movements, but it is much simpler than swordsmanship, and it tests eyesight, intuition and predictive ability. It doesn't have many tricks, except for its own talent, it just needs to practice more and practice repeatedly.

For someone who is proficient in swordsmanship like him, there is no difficulty in getting started.

He closed his eyes and recalled the muscle memory of the middle-aged man in the memory space earlier.

The next moment, he opened his eyes and immediately opened his bow to shoot an arrow.

The action is done in one go, without the slightest obscurity, quite perfect!

The arrow flew out swiftly, flying without a trace.

Chen Shouyi shook his head, and shot another arrow. This time, he hit the target, but unfortunately there was only one ring.

The third arrow missed the target again.

The fourth arrow, three rings!

And after the fifth arrow, they were basically able to hit the target.

He keeps shooting bows and arrows, and now he is physically strong, and his strength is endless. The 300-pound bow is almost effortless for him, and he doesn't feel much physical exertion at all.

After a while, the three quiveres had been shot.

He fetched the arrow, adjusted the distance of the target, and continued shooting without resting.

For safety, each archery position here is separated by a wall, and you can go there to take arrows at any time.

His grades improved rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. By the time the archery gym closed, his archery level had gone from (not yet) to entry (10)

...

At half past nine in the evening, he returned to the hotel with his briefcase under his arm.

Just when I was about to go up the stairs, I was stopped by the front desk: "Little handsome guy, your package has arrived."

"Oh, thank you!" Chen Shouyi thanked, took it, and hurried back to the room.

He closed the door, sat on the bed and tore open the package, which contained three thick books.

"Common Dialogues for Communicating with Barbarians"

"Common Language Dictionary"

"Looking at Pictures and Learning Barbarian Language"

I don’t know why, in the areas that human countries can currently explore, there seems to be only one language in the other world, no matter how far apart two barbarian tribes are, whether this tribe believes in gods or not, or even some other languages ​​that are completely different from barbarians intelligent creatures, the language is almost the same.

This is an extremely incomprehensible phenomenon, beyond human common sense.

Many scientists have done countless studies on this. It was not until the rapid development of genetics in recent years that they made a more credible explanation. The research found that the number of effective segments of their genes related to language is extremely large, almost dozens of that of human beings. times, but the language ability is not stronger than humans at all.

In evolutionary terms, this phenomenon is a serious waste, a huge redundancy.

Some scientists have speculated an astonishing conjecture, that is, their genes should be able to inherit language information.

However, this conjecture has been controversial since its inception, because it can lead to an even more unbelievable conclusion.

That is, all creatures in the different world come from the same origin.

This origin is not like Earth, where the first organic molecule was born from a primordial ocean gruel.

The "origin" of a creature in another world should at least be an intelligent creature that can communicate with language. After "it" fell, the cells and genes of "it" began to spread. Countless lives are derived and evolved on this basis.

And the language of "it" is inherited through genes.

...

But for Chen Shouyi, no matter how mysterious and unimaginable the origin of creatures in other worlds was, at least for him, he didn't have to worry about Shell girl's language being some kind of weird little language and he was helpless.

Thinking of Shell girl, Chen Shouyi hurriedly opened the brand new briefcase he had just bought.

Take out the tied Shell girl from inside.

He tore off the tape that stuck to her mouth, and cut off the bound hands and feet.

Shell girl moved her hands and feet, looked at Chen Shouyi bitterly, turned her head away, and looked angry, but after Chen Shouyi handed over the colorful glass beads, she immediately became beaming.

She shone a light on the light, looked at the changing and confusing colors, and liked it more and more. Sitting on the edge of the table, her feet began to dangle involuntarily.

This kind of glass beads is a string of beads for children to play with. It is quite cheap. It costs 30 yuan a box, and Chen Shouyi bought a box. There are at least hundreds of thousands of them in various colors.

Chen Shouyi reckoned that it would last a long time.

After feeding her honey, Chen Shouyi put her next to the pillow, turned on the TV, and switched to cartoons.

I don't care about her.

She is quite obsessed with TV now, especially cartoons. Although she can't understand, she can watch the pictures with gusto without blinking her eyes.

Chen Shouyi, on the other hand, took the simplest "Looking at Pictures and Learning Barbarian Language" and began to study the language of another world seriously.

After watching for a while, he suddenly said to Shell Girl: "Pozalocbado!"

In the book, this line means: "We are friends!"

But Shell girl seemed to have never heard of it, her eyes were fixed on the cartoon and she was engrossed in it.

Chen Shouyi took the remote control, turned off the TV, and repeated it again.

Shell girl was furious, she stood up with her hips on her hips and shouted loudly: "Get ready! Get ready! Get ready!"

She is not afraid of this giant anymore, as long as she finds enough golden sandstone for him, no matter how presumptuous he is, he will not care, except of course when he is tied up and locked up.

"Get ready?" Chen Shouyi didn't care about Shell Girl's anger at all. He listened carefully to the small voice, and muttered in his heart. He quickly took out the dictionary and looked it up according to the pronunciation. Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, he still didn't understand the words. What means.

Is there a pronunciation error?

"Get ready, Tai Qi, get ready, Peppa!"

"Peppa!"

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the cartoon she watched just now, and he had a flash of inspiration: "Little Pig Peppa!"
