第37章 念力寄往邮徽世界–1
Chapter 37: Telekinesis Reaches Yore-Realm-1
「唷,这是知道错了?」
“Well, now you know you were wrong, huh?”
杨子藏倒是没有跟原始人置气的意思。
Yang Zicang, for his part, had no intention of holding a grudge against these primitives.
「呜嗷呜嗷。」 全身毛发被烧秃的首领趴在地上往前拱了两下。
“Woo-ow, woo-ow.” The tribal chief, his fur completely singed off, crawled forward on the ground, nudging ahead twice.
「可惜我不是龙王爷,给你们灭不了火。」
“Too bad I’m not the Dragon King, so I can’t put out your fire for you.”
在这些野人眼中,杨子藏无疑是这一切的罪魁祸首。
In the eyes of these savages, Yang Zicang was undoubtedly the prime culprit behind all this mayhem.
见杨子藏没反应,两个身材粗壮的野人爬起身来。
Seeing Yang Zicang unmoved, two burly savages got to their feet.
它们举起石头就要砸死那地上的首领。
They heaved up stones, ready to smash the chief lying on the ground.
众野人趴在地上跟著叫唤。
The rest of the savages prostrated themselves on the ground, howling in unison.
这些野人觉得是队伍首领触怒了这位无法形容的存在,或许要将之处死才能熄灭这位的怒火。
These barbarians believed it was their tribe leader who had offended this indescribable being—perhaps they had to put him to death to extinguish this existence’s wrath.
「停!」
“Stop!”
野人哪里听得懂他的话,巨石脱手而去,首领认命似的匍匐在地毫无反抗之意。
The savages, utterly deaf to his words, let the boulders fly. The chief lay prostrate, resigned to his fate, showing no will to resist.
[轨迹调度!]
[Trajectory Control!]
嘭嘭!
Boom! Boom!
两块岩石诡异的落在首领头颅两边。
The two rocks landed eerily on either side of the chief’s head.
他们分明瞧见这瞬间,在杨子藏胸口诞生了个微弱的银白光圈,以及几根一闪而逝的线条。
In that fleeting instant, they clearly saw a faint silvery-white halo, along with a few transient lines, materialize at Yang Zicang’s chest.
两个野人啪地倒地,颤抖不已。
Thud. Thud. The two savages crashed to the ground, trembling violently.
杨子藏走上前去,地上毛发焦黑一片的野人泪汪汪抬头。 他呜咽叫唤著,看上去尤其可怜,像是个知道自己闯祸的孩子。
Yang Zicang stepped forward. The wild man, covered in scorched, blackened hair, looked up with tear-filled eyes. He whimpered and cried, looking utterly pitiful, like a child who knew they had caused trouble.
「就是你小子最先吃的地瓜吧。」
“So you’re the one who ate the sweet potato first.”
都烧得差点认不出来了。
It was burnt so badly that it was almost unrecognizable.
「行了行了,我也跟你们说不来话。 这样吧,你们都加啊呜,你以后就叫阿武好了。 正好跟你另一个世界的某个著名兄弟一样,都叫小五。」
“Alright, alright, I can’t talk reason with you anyway. Here’s the deal: all of you are ‘Ah-something’ from now on. You,” he pointed, “shall be called ‘Ah-Wu’ from now on. By the way, you share the same name with your famous brother from another world, who was also called Xiao Wu.”
杨子藏打算去他们的部落看看。
Yang Zicang planned to take a look at their tribe.
他还记得在地球时,某些亚马逊部落里有著人类记者留下的物品。 这里说不定也是一样。
He still remembered that on Earth, tribes in the Amazon had left behind artifacts marked by human reporters. Here, it could be the same.
「或许雕像就在那里。」
“Perhaps the statue is there.”
半天以后,充满期待的年轻人跟随著这批将自己视作神人的生物,来到依山傍水的凹谷外。
Half a day later, the expectant young man followed these beings, who regarded him as a god, to a valley nestled between mountains and waters.
可挡风避雨,深入崖壁的大横坑外聚集著好些身无丝缕的大小野人。
Standing outside a deep, cliffside hollow that could shield wind and rain, blocking the elements, were a number of wild men and women of all ages, without a thread on.
一见到杨子藏,它们就呜呜直叫,充满敌意的举起石头和木棒,这动作吓得阿武一群外出觅食的野人队伍赶紧上前连比代划的解释。
At the sight of Yang Zicang, they immediately howled and charged forward with stones and wooden clubs raised threateningly. This fierce reaction so terrified Ah-Wu and his foraging party that they quickly rushed over to explain with wild gesticulations.
杨子藏越看心里越凉。
The more Yang Zicang watched, the colder his heart grew inside.
虽然极其不愿意承认,但从一眼就能看完的崖壁凹坑可以看出,这里毫无人类文明造物的迹象。
Though he was extremely reluctant to admit it, from the pit in the cliff face that could be seen at a single glance, there was no trace of human civilization.
他们甚至都不会造石刀。
They couldn’t even craft stone knives.
「看来要去别的地方寻找才行。」
“Looks like I’ll have to search elsewhere.”
果然加速能力不是随便给自己的,一日百里,不知要多久才能探索完这个世界。
Indeed, the acceleration ability wasn’t just handed to him for nothing. A hundred miles a day—who knows how long it would take to explore this world entirely.
没多久,身背硬弓的杨子藏离去。
Before long, Yang Zicang, with a hard bow slung across his back, departed.
……
几日之后,遇见人类尸骸的杨子藏看著这片染血的土地。
Days later, Yang Zicang came across human remains scattered across the bloodstained land.
人类尸身残破不堪的散落各处,看上去没两天的事。 不知是被人丢在这里,还是被野兽分而食之。
The human corpses were broken and mangled, strewn about everywhere, appearing to be no more than a couple of days old. It was unclear whether they had been abandoned here or torn apart by beasts.
但至少说明这附近有其他人的存在。
But at the very least, it indicated the presence of others nearby.
「呜嗷~」
“Awooo~”
走了没多久,刚翻过山头的杨子藏就听到了周围传来的狼啸声。
Not far after he started walking, Yang Zicang, having just crossed the ridge, heard the howling of wolves echo from the surroundings.
「狼?」
“Wolves?”
不对,还有别的声音,是极其含糊的惨叫声。
No, there was another sound—an extremely indistinct, agonizing scream.
杨子藏快速向著那声音方向狂奔而去。
Yang Zicang dashed rapidly toward the direction of the sound.
远处的树林边缘聚集著十数只左右游走的狼犬,它们牙齿锋利,呲牙咧嘴,散发著令人恐惧的气息。
At the edge of the forest in the distance, a dozen or so wolves roamed restlessly, their sharp teeth bared in vicious snarls, exuding a terrifying aura.
而被狼群围著的,是一个离地半人多高的洞穴,惨叫便是从其中传出。
What the wolf pack had surrounded was a cave half a person’s height above the ground, from which the screams emanated.
那里正在进行著一场野兽发动的屠杀。
There, a slaughter unleashed by beasts was underway.
依稀可以见到有人形生物被惨烈分尸。
Vague figures could be seen being horrifically dismembered.
[调度!]
[Deploy! ]
嗖嗖! 两只箭矢划破长空精确射中两只冲在最前方的头狼身上,瞬间将其干翻。
Whoosh! Whoosh! Two arrows tore through the air, precisely striking the two leading wolves at the front, instantly knocking them over.
几个与狼犬作战的野人大脑懵圈的看著这突然飞出来的小树枝。
The few savages fighting the wolfhounds stared blankly, bewildered at the suddenly appearing twig-like arrows.
射出两箭的杨子藏再次动了起来。 他奔跑的轨迹顷刻间加速,接近翻倍的奔跑速度冲向狼群周围。
Yang Zicang, who had loosed the two arrows, moved once again. His running trajectory suddenly accelerated, his speed nearly doubling as he charged towards the perimeter of the wolf pack.
「哇啊,呜啊!」
“Waaah, woooah!”
远处空地上,几名全身长毛,赤著身躯的野人赶紧用石块打砸著这些狼犬。 树上和岩石高处的野人,则如猩猩般佝偻著身子,看著下方几个失去生命的族人唔喔痛哭。
On a distant open patch of ground, several wild men covered in body hair and clad in nothing but their skin desperately smashed rocks at the wolfhounds. Others, perched in the treetops and on high rocks, hunched over like gorillas, wailing and weeping as they gazed down at their fallen kin who had lost their lives below.
「畜生,受死!」
“Beasts, die!”
「唔嗷~」狼犬们调转队伍,直著尾巴窜入林间扑来。
“Woo-woof!” The wolf pack wheeled around, their tails held stiffly erect as they darted back into the woods and lunged forward.
杨子藏左右腾挪,拳头上金辉浮现一拳打在身前这只狼犬身上,但这狼犬根本没有任何被时序打击到的现象,只是被杨子藏掀翻于地而已。
Yang Zicang dodged and weaved left and right. A golden light flickered over his fist as he drove it into the wolfhound in front of him. Yet the creature showed no sign of having been struck by Chronos, merely being bowled over onto the ground.
「这…」
“This…”
果然是梦境的训练场,虽然真实感比上次更强,但始终不是现实世界。
As expected, this was merely a training ground within a dream. Although the sense of reality was stronger than the last time, it was, nonetheless, not the real world.
在这儿虽然能够运用能力了,但时序却无法伤害到里面的生物。
Although he could use his abilities here, Chronos was unable to harm the creatures within.
野人们尖叫著指向林中如同猎豹窜动的年轻人。
The savages screamed, pointing at the young man darting through the forest like a cheetah.
有了杨子藏的加入,这些危险生物被其吸引过去。
With Yang Zicang’s involvement, these dangerous beasts were drawn toward him.
野人的压力骤减。 战况在一两分钟内便扭转。
The pressure on the savages sharply decreased. Within just a minute or two, the tide of battle had turned.
「呜嗷~」
“Oowoooh—”
众狼犬仰头呼啸。 一只身材壮硕的威武银狼跃上巨石高声回应,目光冰冷它的死死盯住树林边缘的杨子藏。
Wolfhounds raised their heads in a united howl. One sturdy majestic silver wolf leaped onto a huge boulder and responded with a loud howl, its icy gaze locked onto Yang Zicang at the edge of the woods.
众狼犬默契后退,这是狼犬之王才能应对的对手。
The pack of wolfhounds backed off in unison—this was an opponent fit only for the king of wolfhounds.
野人营地中。 见到狼犬居然被那人引走,一个岁数比较大,身材略有佝偻的长毛人从树上跃下。
In the savage camp. Seeing that the wolfhounds had been lured away by that man, an older long-haired man with a slightly hunched figure leaped down from a tree.
他腰间裹著稻草和干狼皮所作的装饰,在人群后方指著杨子藏大声叫著。
His waist was adorned with decoration made from straw and dry wolf pelts as he pointed at Yang Zicang from behind the crowd and shouted loudly.
「哇呀,啊呀呀,哇啊呀哇阿呀!」
“Wah yah, ah yah yah, wah ah wah ah ah—!”
当年轻人看了过来,他便指了指旁边的树,示意上去。
When the young man looked over, he gestured toward a nearby tree, signaling for him to climb up.
狼犬王可不管这么多,它从巨石上一跃而下,喉咙发出阵阵低沉咆哮,脚下作出前扑动作。
The wolfhound king cared little for schemes. It leaped down from the boulder, uttering a series of low throaty roars while bracing into a pouncing posture.
周围这些原始人大呼小叫的冲上高处,看著杨子藏。
The surrounding primitive people shrieked and scrambled to higher ground, watching Yang Zicang.
唯一挂著皮草的「老猿人」见这人不为所动,焦急不已。
The sole “old ape-man” draped in fur grew frantic upon seeing this man unmoved.
「吼~」
“Roar~”
狼犬王身形闪动,带起残影飞奔而至,这速度哪怕是杨子藏运用调度能力也不过如此。
The wolf-dog king blurred into motion, charging with afterimages; even Yang Zicang at peak efficiency with his command ability would barely match this speed.
见到这威猛的生物即将扑倒那瘦弱无毛之人,老猿人遗憾至极。
Witnessing this ferocious beast about to pounce on the hairless, frail figure, the old ape-man felt a pang of deep regret.
但下一刻,只听「轰隆」一声。
Yet in the next moment, a thunderous “Bang!” resounded.
杨子藏一脚踹在狼犬王头颅,冷冷喝道:「哈啊!」
Yang Zicang kicked the wolf-dog king square on the head, barking coldly, “Haah!”
狼犬王轰地在地上接连翻滚几圈,刚抬起头,一块西瓜大的岩石呼啸而至,嘭!
The wolf-dog king tumbled across the ground, rolling several times. As it lifted its head, a watermelon-sized rock whistled in—Bam!
众狼犬哗地四散跑远几步,无不哀鸣,但还未等它们嚎完,又一块石头对著只体型膘肥的狼犬砸去,转瞬间便是两头狼犬失去性命。
The pack of wolf-dogs scattered yelping, whimpering in dismay, but before their howls could fade, another rock slammed into a fatty among their ranks, and in an instant, two wolf-dogs had lost their lives.
老猿人脸上一愣。
The old ape-man stood dumbfounded.
在他那有限的智商思索下,似乎除了那些凶猛的巨型野兽,从未有谁能如此简单杀死狼犬的首领。
Amid his limited intellect, glimmering traces surfaced recalling that none but the mightiest savage beasts had ever so effortlessly slain a wolf-dog chieftain.
这个青年瘦得不行,身上连毛都没长,却能和自己恐惧的物件单挑。
This youngling, gaunt to the bone and bare of fur, was taking on the very creature he himself feared, facing it one-on-one.
杨子藏上前将自己射出的两根箭矢拔下,这东西目前可是用一根少一根。
Yang Zicang stepped forward to retrieve the two arrows he had shot—these precious tools were dwindling with each use.
剩下的狼犬们夹著尾巴逃了,如同猿人般的众人「呀呼」直叫,兴奋不已。
The remaining wolf-dogs fled with their tails between their legs, while the ape-like crowd cheered with excited whoops.
老猿人走到杨子藏不远处,双手如同猩猩挥舞般打著招呼。
The old ape-man stopped a short distance from Yang Zicang and waved his hands in greeting like a gorilla.
「别叫了,烦死了。」
“Shut up. It’s annoying.”
四望一眼,这里除了树木就是一个天然的岩石洞穴。
Glancing around, all he could see besides the trees was a natural rock cave.
洞外的岩石上画著宛如幼童的壁画,看得出来有四只腿的,以及长著翅膀的,可能画得是翼龙,或者蝴蝶。
On the rocks outside the cave were crude drawings like a child’s, with what seemed to be four-legged creatures and things with wings—possibly pterosaurs, or butterflies.
杨子藏摇摇头,这里似乎也没有文明社会的人类来过,但他还是自顾自的爬上洞穴进去观看。
Yang Zicang shook his head. It didn’t look like any civilized human had ever been here, but he still climbed into the cave on his own to take a look.
作为救了这里的强者,众野人倒也没拦著他。
As the strong man who had saved them, none of the savages tried to stop him.
洞里黑乎乎的,墙上画著比甲骨文还不如的画。
The cave was pitch black inside, and the walls were covered with drawings even cruder than oracle bone script.
没有雕像。
There were no statues.
杨子藏失望不已。
Yang Zicang was deeply disappointed.
洞口,老猿人捧著干瘪的枣儿,咧嘴笑著递给出来的年轻人,杨子藏犹豫了下还是捡起一粒。
At the cave entrance, the old ape-man held out shriveled dates, grinning as he offered them to the young man. Yang Zicang hesitated, then picked up one.
「好了,诸位好好发展,争取早日出现文字。 我先撤了,再见。」
“Alright, all of you, keep developing and work toward creating a written language soon. I’m off now. Goodbye.”
说罢,他握弓跳下洞口,准备离开。
With that, he gripped his bow and leaped down from the cave entrance, ready to leave.
谁知老猿人跑上前扯住自己,指了指他手上的弓。
Unexpectedly, the old ape-man ran up and grabbed him, pointing at the bow in his hand.
「你想要这个? 这可不行。」
“You want this? No way.”
周围大多数野人都不明白这弓的价值,只是害怕。 唯有这老猿人一眼瞧出了最开始时,正是它灭杀了狼犬。
Most of the primitive men around didn’t grasp the value of this bow; they were merely afraid. Only this old ape-man instantly recognized that it was precisely this weapon that had slaughtered the wolf-dog at the very beginning.
「唔喔唔喔。」
“Ooh ooh ooh.”
老猿人指了指弓,又对著身后几个族人一阵唔呀说了阵。
The old ape-man pointed at the bow, then babbled something to a few of his tribe members behind him.
两个女性野人迟疑地往前走了几步,上下打量著杨子藏,其中一个居然略带害羞的对著老猿人点点头。
Two female primitives hesitated, stepped forward, and sized up Yang Zicang from head to toe. One of them, with a hint of shyness, nodded at the old ape-man.
见著这两位野妹子的眼神,杨子藏突感阵恶寒。
Catching the gaze of these primitive women, Yang Zicang suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
「喂,等等,我可没兴趣在这里当赘婿。」
“Hey, wait a minute. I have no intention of becoming a live-in son-in-law here.”
他连再给这群野人演示下拉弓射箭的兴趣也没有了,赶紧加速时间消失在了原地,看得众野人大惊,乱成了一片。
He no longer felt like demonstrating archery to this group of primitives. Hurrying along by Chronos, he vanished from the spot, leaving the primitives in shock and disarray.
三个月过去,在为一个原始部落留下柄自己制作的石矛长枪后,杨子藏彻底失望了。
Three months passed. After leaving behind a self-made stone Lance spear for a primitive tribe, Yang Zicang was utterly disillusioned.
通过时序加速,他走向许多地方,见到了好几个原始「部落」。。
Using Chronos’s acceleration, he ventured to many places and encountered several primitive “tribes.”
这些野人聚集之地大多都没有自己的语言,连武器也没有制作出来。
Most of these gatherings of uncivilized people lacked their own language and had not even fashioned weapons.
能使用石头作为武器的已经算是比较高级点的族群了。
Those who could wield stones as weapons were already considered a more advanced clan.
「根本没有文明,它们连石块都不会打磨,如何制造雕像呢?」
“There’s no civilization at all—they can’t even polish stones. How can they create statues?”
自己恐怕因为描述过多的要求,而被邮徽送到了个什么都没有的世界,这里恐怕只满足「足够安全」的条件。
I was afraid that due to too many requirements in the description, I had been sent to a world with nothing by the Youhui, where only the condition of “being safe enough” was satisfied.
但若就这样醒来,又太不甘心。
But waking up like this would be too unwilling.
「血脉雕塑到底在哪?」
“Where on earth is the Bloodline Monument?”
远方出现几个野人的身影,他们刚经历一场血战,捕获到几只野兽。
In the distance appeared the figures of several savages, who had just fought a bloody battle and captured a few wild beasts.
这些都是拿人命换来的。
These were all paid for with human lives.
见人类的「先祖」们在这样的世界艰难求生,杨子藏心中难免酸楚。
Seeing the “ancestors” of humanity struggling to survive in such a world, Yang Zicang couldn’t help but feel a pang of sorrow.
「这只是梦,等我走后,你们会解脱的。」
“This is just a dream; after I leave, you will be set free.”
他转身离去,喃喃自语道。
He turned around and murmured to himself.
十年后。
Ten years later.
杨子藏站在块凸起的高耸岩石上,神色肃然地遥望远方。
Yang Zicang stood on a protruding, towering rock, his expression solemn as he gazed into the distance.
他已经走遍了方圆两千多公里内的每一寸区域,却找不到任何史前文明的遗迹。
He had traversed every inch of the two-thousand square kilometers around him, yet found no trace of any prehistoric civilization.
因此他打算去往更为遥远的地方。
So he decided to venture to even more distant places.
或许在大陆另一端有别的文明或文明遗迹也说不定。
Perhaps there might be another civilization or relic of a civilization at the other end of the continent.
