For had not passed thunder season the neighbor sob, to pour sobs ....... this thunder season middle season in the ancestor of big migration, in fact gives the sad festivities of funeral. 为啥哭泣？为没有度过雷季的邻人哭泣,为倒在大迁徙的祖先哭泣…….这个雷季中间的时节,实际上是给予葬礼的悲伤节庆。 In the big migration just-concluded that dozens years, when this season, main street and small alley was the weeping sound, the weeping sound of which family/home was small, will also point at the spine saying that unfilial, was not amiable. 在大迁徙刚刚结束的那数十年,每到这个时节,大街小巷都是哭声,谁家的哭声小了,还会被人指着背脊骨说不孝、不仁义。 What? Doesn't your family have the deceased person? Your neighbor family/home has the deceased person, your clansman has the deceased person, your friend has the deceased person. 啥？你家没死人？你邻居家有死人吧,你的族人有死人吧,你的朋友有死人吧。 Even does not have, the friend, family member and neighbor your friend, your family member and your neighbor always have, others are happily sad you to be not quite good. 就算都没有,你朋友、你亲人、你邻人的朋友、亲人、邻人总有死的吧,别人都在伤心你开心不太好吧。 Cries to cry,

in the new year. 哭完了,摸把脸,继续过日子,顺带笑着庆祝新年。 This celebrates the new year of arrival, actually was also passed exactly for a year. 这既是庆祝新的一年的到来,却也是自己又活过去了一年。 Considering that Seymour person is far lower than the mean lifetimes of natural life-span, day that particularly the mean lifetimes of wilderness tribe less than 40, this also is really also worth congratulating unexpectedly. 考虑到西摩人远低于自然寿命的平均寿命,尤其是荒原部落的平均寿命居然还不到40,这还真是值得庆贺的日子。 When does not know starts, perhaps is because the improvement of living condition makes season be insufficient to turn into the cave dwelling person, perhaps was enough food and storage technique lets between seasons few starving to death people, the family that perhaps does not need to sob were getting more and more, this discarding the old for the new season more and more joyful ingredient, 不知何时开始,或许是因为生活条件的改善让雷季不至于变成穴居人,或许是足够的食物和储藏技术让雷季间很少饿死人了,或许是不需要哭泣的家庭越来越多,这个辞旧迎新的时节越来越多欢庆的成分, Most people will make the best use of the time, played going all out plays, looks for going all out of object to look, because after this rite, did the preparation for next thunder season time. 大多数人都会抓紧时间,玩的拼命玩,找对象的拼命找,因为在这个祭典之后,就是为下一次雷季做准备了。 Without the time of unnecessary sigh, does not prepare a half year of food and commodity before the thunder strike, will wait for next year sing festival to hold your funeral while convenient. 没有多余感叹的时间,不在雷击前准备好半年的食物和物资,就等着明年的歌咏节顺带举行你的葬礼吧。 The brutal natural environment and living condition, making the past Seymour person exceptionally look at the pale life and death. 残酷的自然环境和生活条件,让过去的西摩人异常看淡生死。 But with opening of corner/horn city, the lots changed, most obvious is the thunder season no longer needs to hide in the anti-radar hole, can only bored to hitting the wife, hits the child two to choose one, in thunder season same can go out to take a stroll, the work makes money, picks up the little girl to be in love. 但随着角城的开放,很多东西都变了,最明显的就是雷季不再需要躲在防雷洞里,只能无聊到打老婆、打小孩二选一,雷季中一样能够出去溜达,做工赚钱,泡妞谈恋爱。 The thunder season can act on free will, makes corner/horn city the activity time of Seymour person turn time directly, in wilderness person eyes, was equivalent to the life span to turn time, before then, most tribe Seymour people envied the life of corner/horn city no wonder very much. 雷季能够自由行动,直接让角城的西摩人的活动时间翻倍,在荒原人眼中,也就相当于寿命翻倍了,也难怪在此之前,大部分部落西摩人很羡慕角城的生活。 In fact, if calculates to stockpile to pass thunder season food and commodity, after thunder season, supplemented the time that food commodity must cost, after choosing the city settled down in the life, the time for free activity turns 34 times had the possibility...... in some sense, this was equal to that the life span turned several times. 实际上,若计算一下为了储备度过雷季的食物、物资,雷季后补充食物物资所必须耗费的时间,在选择了城内定居生活后,自由活动时间翻了三四倍都是有可能的……从某种意义上来说,这就等于寿命翻了数倍。 Even so, the sing festival as before is one year of most important day. 即使如此,歌咏节依旧是一年最重要的日子。 In the past, on the day of the corner/horn city even coordinated to hold various ceremony celebrations, proceeded to push, according to the past situation, the decision was celebrates the victory sacrifice of harvest harvest sacrifice or celebration victory, in the future will push is celebrates the thunder season the sunlight sacrifice that started the sunlight to arrive. 往昔,角城甚至配合这一天举行各种仪式庆典,往前推,是根据当年情况,决定是庆祝丰收丰收祭或是庆祝战争胜利的胜利祭,往后推就是庆祝雷季开始阳光降临的阳光祭。 Even many festivities, most importantly, as before were sing festival of several days, such as in the new year to the importance of human race. 即使有诸多节庆了,最重要的,依旧是那几天的歌咏节,就如新年对人类种族的重要性。 But today's sing festival, situation some in corner/horn city are not right. 但今天的歌咏节,角城内的情况却有些不对劲。 In the past various temporary county fairs had not held, because the city guards will be ordered to scatter to gather crowd, that familiar singing and to singing sound, although was short but remains, but was different from the past love song theme, in this year's singing sound were many many sad and mournful thought. 往年各种临时市集都没有举行,因为城市守卫会奉命驱散聚集在一起的人群,那熟悉的歌唱、对歌声虽然少了很多但依旧存在,只不过和往日情歌主旋律不同,今年的歌声中多了很多悲伤和哀思。 With, the city main sent out the personnel in the major squares in the past, presents the bouillon and festivities cakes and pastries. 和往昔一样,城主在各大广场派出了人员,奉送肉汤和节庆糕点。 But with was different in the past, this time does not have many people to lead, the children no longer pursue behind the guards to want the candy, is the city official of swiveleye distribution grain the beggar can also disdain, spit then swaggers away. 但和往昔不同,这次却没有多少人去领,孩子们不再追着守卫们背后要糖果,就是乞丐也可以不屑的斜视分发粮品的城市官员,一口吐沫然后扬长而去。 The decoration colored ribbon under room beam was few, last last month had the bloody conflicts in actually that square, unknowingly had/left many small white bloom. 屋梁下的装饰彩带很少了,倒是上上个月发生流血冲突的那个广场上,不知不觉多出了很多小白花。 But commerical traveller who in the past heavy traffic, this time actually only then 12/10, solely think actually not a corner/horn city now the atmosphere is not right, the hearsay of frightening dislike hindered the guest. 而往昔车水马龙的旅行商人,这次却只有十分之一二,倒不是单单以为角城现在气氛不对,让人恐惧厌恶的传闻阻碍了来客。 Mainly, tourist agent people had the new choice, that new winter Niya city is the first choice of most commerical travellers, it is said there several hundred thousand people take the bank note and golden crazy big purchase. 更主要的,还是旅行商人们有了新的选择,那新冬妮娅城是大部分旅行商人的首选,据说那里有几十万人拿着票子和黄金疯狂大采购。 Merchants who even these come to the corner/horn city, still after exchanging information, after scheduled, next stand. 即使那些来角城的商人们,也在交换情报后,预定后了下一站。 By this time, this year's tariff and commodity exchange tax also less than last year 1/3, this is the city main most important personal treasury, it is said that he therefore sent several fires, actually can only let it go finally as before. 到了这个时候,今年的关税、商品交易税还不到去年的三分之一,这可是城主最重要的私人金库,据说,他因此发了几次火,却最终依旧只能不了了之。 After all, again such domineering city lord, is impossible to send out the army to send under custody the merchant to trade. 毕竟,再这么强势的城主,也不可能派出军队来押送商人交易。 However, the misfortune goddess and lucky woman are twins, goes bad to would the favorable turn to the extreme, in many bad news, there is a heartening good news. 不过,厄运女神和幸运女士一直都是双生子,坏到极点总会有转机,在诸多坏消息之中,还是有一个振奋人心的好消息。 „The envoys in new winter Niya city and Holy Mountain came, the tripartite peace agreement will soon be signed.” “新冬妮娅城和圣山的使节来了,三方和平协议即将签署。”
