The purgatory to trips and people estimated from the beginning had very large-deviation. 炼狱之旅与众人一开始的预想产生了很大偏差。 A small displacement private car of undistinguished appearance lively silent is going on the wilderness of green lawn, the curled up gust leaves behind light ripples on the vehicle following lawn, the entire world is the so broad, small automobile in the prairie speeds away appears seems like a bug to be common. If not can also see some black rock layers from the cloud layer occasionally, perhaps no one is able to imagine another earth's crust to hang on that day arched above. 一辆其貌不扬的小排量私家车在绿草茵茵的原野上轻快无声地行驶着,卷起的阵风在车子后面的草地上留下淡淡的一层涟漪,整个天地是如此广阔,小小的汽车在大草原上疾驰时显得像是一只小虫般不起眼。如果不是偶尔还能从云层中看到一些黑色的岩层,恐怕谁也无法想象另一层地壳就悬在那天穹之上。 Vehicle before one black „mountain” stops slowly, this is another is supporting the vault „the heavenly pillar great tree”, as if an entire cliff giant tree trunk towers in the land straightly, its lower half is near kilometer high mountain peak, on the part has vanished in the cloud layer deep place. Hao Ren pushes the hanger-on car(riage), took out some as if to survey a same equipment from the space along, assembled. 车子在一座黑色的“大山”前慢慢停下,这是另外一座支撑着穹顶的“天柱巨树”,仿佛一整座悬崖般的巨大树干笔直地耸立在大地上,其下半部分是近千米高的山峰,上部分则一直消失在云层深处。郝仁推门下车,从随身空间中取出了一些仿佛测量架一样的设备,就地组装起来。 Mobile Data Terminal oneself and that equipment links, its above projects later one group of sketchy planet sectional drawings, but in that equipment below cylinder vessel departs several exquisitely, as if the silver cicada common small machine, these small machines fly to „the heavenly pillar great tree”, sneaked in the latter rock hard black cover agilely. A moment later, the data feeds, on the Mobile Data Terminal scanning pattern, represents the total information image of this heavenly pillar great tree to present the ice-cold blue color at present. 数据终端把自己和那设备连接在一起,随后其上方投影出一组粗略的星球剖面图,而那设备下方的圆柱形容器里则飞出几个小巧的、仿佛银蝉一般的小机器,这些小机器飞向“天柱巨树”,敏捷地钻进了后者岩石般坚硬的黑色外皮里。片刻之后,数据传回,数据终端的扫描图上,代表眼前这株天柱巨树的全息影像呈现出冰冷的蓝色。 „Third, was the death individual, the life responded that completely stopped,” Mobile Data Terminal display data while is reporting indifferently, „deep layer may also find the wood fiber, but the external epidermis has basically petrified, that was a mix mineral, possibly was the reinforcement outer covering that the tree trunk year after year secretion hardening evolved. These ‚petrification’ hollow cylinder of part for these provided the armor plate that intensity that is inconceivable...... almost and star ship is equally hard.” “第三棵,也是死亡个体,生命反应完全停止了,”数据终端一边显示数据一边淡然地报告着,“深层还可找到木质纤维,但外表皮基本上已经石化,那是一种混合矿物,可能是树干长年累月的分泌物硬化而演变出的加固外壳。这些‘石化’部分为这些中空圆柱提供了难以想象的强度……几乎和星舰的装甲板一样坚硬。” „Therefore they can support the above world,” Hao Ren raises head to look at that by the cloud covering earth's crust lower level, „are these boughs the uniform distributions?” “所以它们能支撑上面的世界,”郝仁仰头看着那被云层遮挡的地壳下层,“这些树干是均匀分布的？” „Right, uniform distribution. Moreover huge quantity.” Mobile Data Terminal replied, was demonstrating between its picture purgatory planet first and second these „heavenly pillar great tree” the data that the distribution, the probe transmitted was not really detailed. But conducts the sketchy analysis to be sufficient. Can see from the picture, the first semblance of purgatory completely float in this planet deep layer earth's crust above more than ten kilometers. Among the two does not have the slight geological connection, the massive heavenly pillar great trees maintain only taking advantage of this two-course construction. These great trees in the earth's crust following uniform distribution, then have one every 100 km: In the purgatory entrance quantity compared with surface are many. “没错,均匀分布。而且数量庞大。”数据终端答道,在它的画面上显示着炼狱星球第一层和第二层之间那些“天柱巨树”的分布情况,探针传来的数据还不甚详实。但进行粗略分析已经够用。从画面上可以看到,炼狱的第一层外表完全悬浮在这颗星球深层地壳上空十几公里处。二者之间没有丝毫地质连接,大量天柱巨树就是维持这个双层结构的唯一依仗。这些巨树在地壳下面均匀分布着,每隔100公里便有一个:远比地表上的炼狱入口数量要多。 „Not all great trees are hollow, in fact most great trees are solid, they are more solid,” terminal answered, „, but these hollow boughs connected to be well-grounded on the world like the chimney and underground world, they become so-called ‚purgatory two entrances’.” “并非所有巨树都是空心,事实上大部分巨树是实心的,它们更加结实,”终端解释道,“而那些中空的树干则像烟囱一样连接着地上世界和地下世界,它们成为了所谓的‘炼狱二层入口’。” Lily asked curiously: „Is this hollow structure...... the pathological change?” 莉莉好奇地问:“这种空心结构是……病变？” „No. Should be is intentional,” terminal gave the negative answer, „the distribution of hollow great tree is very even, on average every 100 heavenly pillar great tree then hollow . Moreover the entire atmospheric activity of underground space is also coordinating these ‚chimney’, this aircraft analyzes this hollow special tree trunk should is similar the thing of some type of breather pipe, is used with place Surface World conducts the atmospheric exchange at the same time should have the function of sensor, this aircraft scans under the hollow great tree to have the strong electrical signal to surge, if right, should be......” “不。应该是有意为之,”终端给出了否定的答案,“中空巨树的分布很均匀,平均每一百颗天柱巨树便有一个是空心的,而且地下空间的整个大气活动也在配合这些‘烟囱’,本机分析这种空心的特殊树干应该是类似某种呼吸管的东西,用来和地表世界进行大气交换的同时应该也具备感应器的功能,本机扫描到空心巨树下面有较强的电信号涌动,如果没错的话,应该是……” „Is the First Born nerve.” Hao Ren did not wait for the terminal saying that then made noise to break, „these trees were the whisker of First Born evolve?” “是长子的神经。”郝仁不等终端说完便出声打断,“这些树是长子的触须演化出来的吧？” Hao Ren completely does not depend upon the rookies who the equipment analysis can make the judgment now, according to the environment as well as in the landscape of that this underground world place Surface World sees. He can speculate that easily only has First Born to mold such miracle. These are supporting the upper-level earth's crust „the heavenly pillar great tree” without a doubt is First Born part, the shape of the only issue was this partially already almost cannot see the First Born whisker that evolved, even its internal physiology structure was entirely different from First Born. 郝仁如今已经不是完全依靠设备分析才能作出判断的菜鸟,根据这个地下世界的环境以及在地表世界看到的景观。他很容易就能推测出只有长子才能塑造出这样的奇迹。那些支撑着上层地壳的“天柱巨树”毫无疑问是长子的一部分,唯一的问题是这部分已经演化的几乎看不出长子触须的形态了,甚至连其内部生理结构都与长子大不相同。 Mobile Data Terminal does not have the direct reaction, but emits one group of total information to project directly, that was just through the deep layer radar scan, the structure of heavenly pillar great tree underground portion, the people can notice has one very much clearly in the underground of this great tree huge to the fearful complex world, the innumerable numerous and disorderly cranial nerve same root hair as if grows in the land deep place entanglement, more shape downward more does not seem like the normal tree root, but in most lower level. The root hair had turned into the appearance of whisker completely, and has extended to the land deep place: That was the place that the radar is unable to survey. At least Hao Ren brings along several types of low power sensors cannot scan that deep position. 数据终端没有直接回答,而是直接放出一组全息投影,那是刚刚通过深层雷达扫描到的、天柱巨树地下部分的结构,众人可以很清晰地看到在这株巨树的地下有着一个更加庞大到可怕的复杂世界,无数庞杂的仿佛脑神经一样的根须在大地深处纠缠生长,越往下的形态就越不像是正常的树根,而在最下层。根须已经完全变成了触须的模样,并一直延伸到大地更深处:那是雷达都无法探测的地方了。至少郝仁随身带着的几样小功率感应器扫描不到那么深的位置。 „The whisker of First Born evolved these great trees, however list from physiological structure analysis. These trees have been separated from the First Born life form completely,” the voice of terminal is somewhat puzzled, „they are the genuine wooden, outside is wrapping one compared with the superalloy also firm petrification outer covering, is entirely different from the whisker. Felt to seem like a flesh and blood to grow the limbs of titanium alloy, and was not grafts.” “长子的触须演化出了这些巨树,然而单从生理结构分析。这些树已经完全脱离长子的生命形态,”终端的声音有些困惑,“它们是真真正正的木质,外面包裹着一层比超级合金还坚固的石化外壳,与触须大不相同。给人的感觉就好像是一个血肉之躯生长出了钛合金的肢体,并且不是嫁接上去的。” „As can be appreciated, First Born is the origin of life, if the situation need, it changes other species oneself some limbs also yes. It matter that uses the source blood to achieve, without truth own whisker instead cannot achieve,” Hao Ren is not actually accidental, „these things can confirm when the time comes with Choam. The present key is this First Born is live or dies...... you said that it has the nerve to be impulsive, but these great trees had obviously died.” “可以理解,长子是生命之源,如果情况需要,它把自己的一部分肢体变化成别的物种也是可以的。它用源血都能做到的事情,没道理自己的触须反而做不到,”郝仁倒是不怎么意外,“这些事情到时候可以跟卓姆确认一下。现在的关键是这个长子到底是活的还是死的……你说它有神经冲动,但这些巨树明显已经死亡。” „It is not able to judge, regarding the lifeform of First Born this rank, is very difficult to limit its life and death with the standard of conventional species: Its body and soul, its each tissues and organs even each piece of fragment possibly has the independent life and death definition, its part withered obviously, but these wither some are supporting the whole world, and its deep layer still some signals transmitted, is also the little electrical signal.” “无从判断,对于长子这种级别的生物而言,用常规物种的标准很难界定它的生死:它的躯体和灵魂,它的每一个组织器官甚至每一片碎块都可能具有独立的生死定义,它的一部分显而易见的枯萎了,但这些枯萎的部分支撑着一整个世界,并且它的深层仍然有些信号传来,可是也只有一点点电信号而已。” Lily thinks, emits a word: „Vegetable?” 莉莉想了想,冒出一个词:“植物人？” The Hao Ren complexion looked at Lily one strangely, his heart said that in the world should not have to feel being out of sorts feeling compared with this description way, but these three characters also are really the day hits to be struck by lightning general appropriate at present this condition! 郝仁面色古怪地看了莉莉一眼,他心说世界上应该没有比这更充满违和感的形容方式了,但这仨字还真是天打雷劈一般的合适眼前这个状况！ „If...... if I have not guessed that wrong, above that should not be the earth's crust,” Vivian raised head to look at for quite a while, suddenly said looking pensive, „this planet was impossible to grow a new outer covering baseless. Bough peak only possibly is one thing......” “如果……如果我没猜错的话,上面那一层应该也不是地壳,”薇薇安仰头看了半天,突然若有所思地说道,“这颗星球不可能凭空长出一层新外壳。树干顶端的只可能是一样东西……” Mobile Data Terminal switches over the picture immediately, above demonstrated that purgatory planet outermost earth's crust further scan result, that bleak length and breadth of when that is the people just arrived here once to witness, is then proliferating the poisonous hot spring and monster place, it seems like one firm and rock spherical shell of unified whole, but after the probe detailed scanning, its in-depth concealed vein finally presents. 数据终端立刻切换了画面,上面显示出炼狱星球最外面一层地壳的进一步扫描结果,那便是众人刚抵达这里时曾目睹的那个荒凉广袤、遍布着有毒热泉和怪物的地方,它看似一层坚固而浑然一体的岩石球壳,但在探针详细扫描之后,其深层隐含的脉络终于呈现出来。 „You said right, is the crown. The purgatory planet first earth's crust, is the crown of petrification.” “你说的没错,是树冠。炼狱星球的第一层地壳,是石化的树冠。” These crowns continuous Large expanse, seamless, complete coverage under original planet, heavenly pillar great tree unusual „petrification” advancement not only manifests on the tree trunk, manifests on the crown, after does not know the changes of many years, once plant crown turned into several -km rock layer, but above that rock layer, is one is called the bad world of purgatory sufficiently. 这些树冠连绵成片,毫无缝隙,完全覆盖了下面原本的星球,天柱巨树奇特的“石化”进程不但体现在树干上,也体现在树冠上,所以在不知多少岁月的变化之后,曾经的植物树冠变成了厚达数公里的岩层,而在那岩层之上,便是一个足以被称作炼狱的恶劣世界。 But in conducting processes of this series of transformations, the heavenly pillar great tree died, does not know that during was First Born plans to have what accident in midway, these that in brief now the people can see „black mountain” was only the wreckage of dead plant, pillar that after is the First Born whisker withered, stays behind. They are the fossils, lifts is becoming the fossil crown earth's crust similarly. 而在进行这一系列改造的过程中,天柱巨树全部死亡了,不知道是长子计划之中还是中途出了什么变故,总之现在众人能看到的这些“黑色高山”都只是死去植物的残骸,是长子触须枯萎之后留下的柱子。它们是化石,托举着同样成为化石的树冠地壳。 Nangong Sanba is pinching the chin looking pensive: „In other words we are standing now the place is purgatory planet true ‚primitive surface’?” 南宫三八捏着下巴若有所思:“也就是说咱们现在站着的这个地方才是炼狱星球真正的‘原始表面’？” „Right, at least is these great trees seals up the beforehand primitive land the sky completely,” Hao Ren nods, the line of sight extends following that grand black tree trunk upwardly, „I think that this is some protective measures, to guarantee the ecosphere in primitive land can last to construct. In addition that cloud top of most outer layer, this planet has protection layer upon layer, this insists without Sun today.” “没错,至少是这些巨树把天空完全封闭之前的原始大地,”郝仁点点头,视线顺着那宏伟的黑色树干向上延伸,“我认为这是某种保护措施,是为了保证原始大地上的生态圈能存续下去才建造起来的。再加上最外层的那个云顶,这颗星球有着层层的保护,这才在没有太阳的情况下坚持到今天。” At this time Mobile Data Terminal received an urgent communication from some probe suddenly, it yelled immediately: „Hey! First do not study the tree, the probe has the discovery!” 这时候数据终端突然收到了一条来自某个探针的紧急通讯,它顿时大叫起来:“嘿！先别研究树了,探针有发现！” Vivian runs immediately: „Is Baptiste's whereabout?” 薇薇安立刻跑过去:“是巴蒂斯特的下落？” „It is not other man traces,” in the projection of Mobile Data Terminal presents a picture from distant place, in the vast prairie, is been clearly discernible by the large-scale vestige that the plant and soil cover, „a city! Intelligent organic build-up city!” ( to be continued ) “不是其他的人造物痕迹,”数据终端的投影上呈现出一幅来自远方的画面,在辽阔的大草原上,一座被植物和泥土覆盖的大型遗迹清晰可见,“一座城市！智慧生物建造的城市！”(未完待续)
