After 6 hours of flight, the Kunpeng -3 that leaf boat and forest zero ride lands on some Lop Nur base finally, according to the plan, leaf boat is going to inspect nearby photovoltaic fusing tower system power station in the second Tianshun Road, therefore this evening, two people then in base. 经过六个多小时的飞行,叶舟和林零乘坐的这架鲲鹏-三最终在罗布泊某基地降落,按照计划,叶舟将要在第二天顺路考察附近的光伏熔融塔式发电站,于是这一个晚上,两人便在基地中住了下来。 This time Lop Nur Base has not been the dozens years ago appearances, although the base sealed up in the unpopulated area deep place, because of strong delivering ability, after two people meal, in the fruit even had just the litchi chinensis that transported from Lingnan. 这时候的罗布泊基地早就已经不是数十年前的模样,虽然基地还是封闭在无人区深处,但因为超强的投送能力,两人的餐后水果里甚至有刚刚从岭南空运过来的荔枝。 forest zero has not hated to take from the beginning ---- She thinks probably transports/fortunes a number of litchi chinenses not to come easily, wants to keep to here soldier, to the evening looks that mess squad one basket of one baskets throw out in the temperature change and delivery process jolt the litchi chinensis of damage, she lagged behind runs up to the refrigerator of cafeteria to catch the iced later litchi chinensis of full basin, went into the camp middle courtyard, sits with leaf boat together enjoys the cool air. 林零一开始还没舍得拿----她大概以为运一批荔枝过来不容易,想要多留点给这边的战士,一直到晚上看着炊事班一筐一筐往外扔因为气温变化和运载过程中颠簸损坏的荔枝时,她才后知后觉地跑到食堂的冰柜里抓了满满一盆的冰镇之后的荔枝,跑到营地中间的院子里,跟叶舟一起坐着乘凉。 The day and night temperature difference in desert is very big, but nearby this base has massive photovoltaic generation installment, after more than ten years of operations, the entire base has formed a small oasis, therefore, night breeze, although is very cool, but pours to be insufficient to coldly piercing. 沙漠中的昼夜温差很大,但这座基地附近有大量光伏发电装置,经过十多年的经营,整座基地已经形成了一個小小的绿洲,所以,晚风虽然很凉,但倒不至于冷到刺骨。 Two people calmly sit in the courtyard, the most lights of base have been put out, in this wide and open desert, the star light becomes the lead. 两人静静地坐在院子里,基地的大部分灯火都已经熄灭,在这片广袤无垠的沙漠之中,星光重新成为了主角。 „What should we ....... chat?” “我们是不是应该.......聊点什么？” Forest zero is eating the litchi chinensis, while is probing asking. 林零一边吃着荔枝,一边试探着问道。 Hears her words, leaf boat feels like a little funny, at once but where does not know to be funny, the thinking a moment later, he opens the mouth to reply: 听到她的话,叶舟隐约觉得有点好笑,但一时之间又不知道好笑在哪里,思索片刻之后,他开口回答道: „The words that wants to chat can chat, but your words asked ........ this time led you to come out is relaxes, was is not on intimate terms.” “想聊的话可以聊,不过你这句话问的........这次带你出来是来散心的,不是来相亲的。” On forest zero the face appears several points of awkward facial expression, she has not really thought this, but oneself ponder over, those words that oneself spoke a moment ago really somewhat are easy the misleading meaning. 林零的脸上浮现出几分尴尬的神情,她是真没想过这一层,但自己琢磨琢磨,自己刚才说的那句话还真有几分容易让人误解的意思。 „Before I am not that meaning ......., Chen told me, said that makes me contact you, then makes you enlighten me, he said the speed that you grow is fast, should be the experience is very full.” “我不是那个意思.......之前陈总跟我说了,说让我接触接触你,然后让你开导开导我,他说你成长的速度非常快,应该是经验很足的。” „I felt he said is very reasonable, you compared with my greatly am one year old, but can you be maturer than too many me in the thought ....... this are also a talent?” “我感觉他说的很有道理,你才比我大一岁,但是你在思想要比我成熟太多了.......这是不是也是一种天赋？” leaf boat shakes the head, replied: 叶舟摇摇头,回答道: „This is not what talent, but after experiencing something, you automatic, or has no recourse to be mature.” “这不算什么天赋,只是经历了一些事情之后,你就会自动的、或者说迫不得已地成熟起来。” „Said that sentence very vulgar words, the ability is bigger, the responsibility is bigger. When you starts to shoulder the responsibility truly, is the growth time.” “说句很俗的话,能力越大,责任越大。当你开始真正承担责任的时候,就是成长的时候了。” Forest zero looking pensive un, after stop moment, asked: 林零若有所思地嗯了一声,停顿片刻后问道: „Have you experienced a lot?” “你经历过很多事情吗？” „That may too many ....... I have no way to say with you.” “那可太多了.......不过我都没法跟你说。” „I know, the secret matter I did not ask...... thank you, you bring the thing that I look at today, is more effective than all treatments that these psychiatrists underwent over the past month.” “我知道,机密的事情我就不问了......不过还是谢谢你,你今天带我看的东西,比过去一个月那些心理医生做的所有治疗都更有效。” „My pattern was too small ....... to surrounded slightly me. Later I should go to study the things of some astrophysics, expands a width own vision ---- Always does the microphysics, is very easy to bore tip of cows horn.” “我的格局太小了.......小到把我自己都困住了。以后我应该去学一些天体物理学的东西,扩宽一下自己的眼界----老是搞微观物理,真的很容易钻牛角尖。” After saying, she puts down half basin litchi chinensis that in the hand had not finished eating, in the future that the body relaxes, by sitting on chair. 说完后,她放下手里还没吃完的半盆荔枝,身体放松的往后一趟,靠坐在椅子上。 This is the first time that her one month comes to feel such relaxed, this relaxedness even makes her own feel some doubts. 这是她一个多月一来第一次感到这么轻松,这种轻松甚至让她自己都感到有些疑惑。 She has thought that own spiritual problem from huge sense of crisis, however after today, she discovered, actually the root of issue is not the sense of crisis, but is the powerless feeling. 她一直以为,自己的精神问题是来自于巨大的危机感,然而今天之后她才发现,其实问题的根源不是危机感,而是无力感。 That type does not know oneself should make anything, to make anything's powerless feeling. 那种不知道自己应该做什么、能做什么的无力感。 leaf boat has not replied her, two people are so silent, to forest zero felt oneself soon rested the past time, near her ear broadcast Ye Zhou's voice suddenly. 叶舟没有回答她,两人就这么沉默着,一直到林零感觉自己都快要睡过去的时候,她的耳边才突然传来了叶舟的声音。 „In your eyes, what is the universe?” “在你眼里,宇宙是什么样的？” „Universe?” “宇宙？” forest Lingleng gawked, later replied: 林零愣了一愣,随后回答道: „If said subjectively, probably with all the person views of studying the physics are the same spacious ......., ice-cold, then also bring a romantic.” “如果主观地说,大概就跟所有学物理的人看法一样吧.......空旷、冰冷、然后又带着点浪漫。” „I remember that I saw for the first time your time has told you, I thought that the universe is a very lonely concept, so many stars in this space, there are civilization that so many possibly have, but in my life, possibly cannot see including one.” “我记得我第一次见到你的时候就跟你说过,我觉得宇宙是一个很孤独的概念,在这片空间里有那么多的星球,有那么多可能存在的文明,但在我这一生里,可能连一个见不到。” „Is universe to our human probably one...... the dark forest? This concept actually I also very approve. Out of what goal, probably these is hiding from us compared with we more advanced civilization.” “宇宙对我们人类来说大概就是一个......黑暗森林？这个概念其实我还挺赞同的。无论是出于什么目的,大概那些比我们更先进的文明都在躲着我们。” Hears her words, leaf boat shakes the head, says: 听到她的话,叶舟摇了摇头,开口说道: „e thinks that you have not understood the neighboring significance truly. If you can understand neighboring truly, you will certainly not say ‚dark forest’ this noun.” “莪想你还是没有真正理解相邻维的意义。如果你能真正理解相邻维,那你一定不会说出‘黑暗森林’这个名词。” „Why?” “为什么？” forest zero some expression doubts. 林零的表情有些疑惑。 leaf boat sat straight the body from the chair, later said: 叶舟从椅子上坐直了身子,随后开口说道: „Must discuss that this issue, first we need to establish several basic principles.” “要讨论这个问题,首先我们需要确定几个基本的原则。” „The first point, neighboring exists, and its quantity is big, in each neighboring birth different civilizations.” “第一点,相邻维存在,并且它的数量众多,每一个相邻维中都会诞生不同的文明。” „Second, civilized technical standards existing difference, but is developing unceasingly, but goal of development, to survive.” “第二点,文明的技术水平存在差异,但都在不断发展,而发展的目的,都是为了生存。” „The third point, among neighboring can conduct the energy exchange, but cannot conduct the material interchange.” “第三点,相邻维之间可以进行能量交换,但不能进行物质交换。” „The fourth point, the known all civilizations base on the material, does not have the pure energy shape the civilization.” “第四点,已知的所有文明都是基于物质的,不存在纯能量形态的文明。” „These four points, are we after that all the foundations of deduction.” “这四点,是我们此后所有推论的基础。” Hears Ye Zhou's words, forest zero thought deeply about the moment carefully, later nods. 听到叶舟的话,林零仔细思索了片刻,随后点点头。 „From the current evidence, these four principles that you say is accurate.” “从目前的证据来看,你说的这四条原则是准确的。” „Good, then, then we can continue our deductions.” “好,那么,接下来我们就可以继续我们的推论了。” „The process of this deduction is very simple, has no complex gambling, suspicion and so on, summarizes, only then a few words.” “这个推论的过程很简单,也没有任何复杂的博弈啊、猜疑啊之类的,总结起来,只有一句话。” „When the civilization development of random dimension can control spans the energy exchange of dimension, they surely will spare nothing the preferential absorption neighboring energy, until neighboring in all civilizations, because the energy suffocates to fall from the sky.” “当任意一个维度的文明发展到可以控制跨越维度的能量交换时,他们都必定会不惜一切代价优先吸收相邻维的能量,直到相邻维中的所有文明因为能量窒息而陨灭。” „Why? They do not need to do that ....... you give my information according to before, from neighboring absorbing the energy , is actually well below directly the energy of the star gaining ---- Even if makes the Dyson ball? When this also Beef absorbs the energy to be better from neighboring with effort?” “为什么？他们不需要这么做啊.......按照之前你给我的信息,从相邻维中吸取到的能量,其实远远不如直接从恒星获取的能量----哪怕是造个戴森球呢？这也比费时费力地从相邻维吸取能量要好吧？” „They do not need...... wait/etc completely.” “他们完全不需要......等等。” The words, in forest zero the brain flash through together the thunderclap at this point suddenly. 话说到这里,林零的脑中突然闪过一道炸雷。 She understands four principles that suddenly leaf boat said related. 她突然明白叶舟所说的四条原则的关系了。 In the world of physics, so-called „neighboring” is actually a broad concept, a dimension and another dimension are neighboring, does not mean that these two dimensions are the sequence relations, conversely, this is neighboring of full size, any dimension of, can contact this „the neighboring aggregate” all dimensions. 在物理的世界里,所谓的“相邻”其实是一个宽泛的概念,一个维度和另一个维度相邻,并不意味着这两个维度是序列关系,相反的,这是一种全尺度的相邻,其中的任何一个维度,都可以接触到这个“相邻维聚集体”中的所有维度。 Therefore, in technology development existing difference situation, the dimension of having the advanced civilization, has from inevitably willfully be only the dimension of backwardness civilization derives the energy the ability. 所以,在技术发展存在差异的情况下,一个具有先进文明的维度,必然具备从任意只有落后文明的维度汲取能量的能力。 The most essential factor arrived. 紧接着,最关键的因素到来了。 The material interchange is not feasible in the dimensions, but the civilization bases on the material. 物质交换在维度之间不可行,但文明又是基于物质的。 Therefore, any civilization, is impossible to enter another dimension, to them, another dimension, forever is only their energy reservoirs. 所以,任何一个文明,都不可能进入另一个维度,对他们来说,另一个维度,永远都只是他们的能量蓄水池。 Then, in one day, when a civilization invented the water pump, is the matter that they must handle what? 那么,在某一天,当一个文明发明了抽水机,他们要做的事情是什么？ Does not count the price to drain the reservoir of next door. 不计代价地抽干隔壁的蓄水池。 The reason is very simple, because also has the civilization in this reservoir, and this civilization absolutely after selecting „water pump” technical tree, similarly does not count the price to pump water from the reservoir! 理由很简单,因为在这个蓄水池中也存在文明,并且这个文明绝对会在点出“抽水机”的科技树之后,同样不计代价地从自己所处的蓄水池里抽水！ Who will care about the life of another reservoir? Who will protect the place that piece of can never go? 谁会在乎另一个蓄水池的死活？谁会去保护一片自己永远不会到达的地方？ The first demands of all civilizations survive, in survival not threatened situation, they do any so-called „misdemeanor”, is reasonable! 所有的文明的第一需求都是生存,在生存不被威胁的情况下,他们做的任何所谓的“坏事”,都是合理的！ Therefore, the answer has made known. 所以,答案已经揭晓了。 So long as these four basic principles were not broken, then among among dimensions, civilizations mutually „pump” the behavior, will not stop. 只要这四条基本原则不被打破,那么维度之间、文明之间互相“抽水”的行为,就绝不会停止。 Sees forest zero the expression, leaf boat deeply sighed, he knows that the opposite party has understood. 看到林零的表情,叶舟深深叹了口气,他知道对方已经听懂了。 „Therefore I said, you are wrong to the universe view.” “所以我说,你对宇宙的看法是错误的。” „In the same universe, does not have any civilization will be hiding other civilizations intentionally, conversely, all civilizations are like us, is always seeking for the ally.” “在同一个宇宙中,没有任何一个文明会故意躲着其他文明,相反的,所有的文明都跟我们一样,无时无刻不在寻找着盟友。” „Under the war between dimensions, the civilization in same dimension in fact is a whole, we only then form an alliance, can make the water pump with the quickest speed, can have the ability of hitting back.” “在维度之间的战争下,同一个维度内的文明实际上是一个整体,我们只有结盟,才能用最快的速度造出抽水机,才能拥有还手的能力。” „But the issue is, the enemy from another dimension, will not give us this opportunity.” “但问题是,来自另一个维度的敌人,不会给我们这个机会。” „They are quicker than us, but this step, is ....... the difference of life and death.” “他们已经比我们快了一步了,而这一步,就是.......生死之差。” „This is, universe lonely truth that you said.” “这才是你所说的,宇宙孤独的真相。” „We do not know so-called ‚water pump’ technology to us also far, but is very obvious, we to this technical at least also several hundred years of distances, however, the opposite party 20 years later, will start to our strangling to death.” “我们不知道所谓‘抽水机’的技术离我们还有多远,但很显然,我们离这项技术至少还有数百年的距离,然而,对方在20年之后,就将启动对我们的绞杀。” „You know that what this does mean?” “你知道这意味着什么吗？” forest zero the facial expression is even more dignified, was she a smart person possibly cannot understand the meaning in leaf boat words? 林零的神情越发凝重,她是一个聪明人怎么可能理解不了叶舟话里的意思？ After silent entire one minute, she says: 沉默了整整一分钟之后,她才开口说道: „This means that ....... neighboring strangling to death to our universe, had basically entered the end.” “这意味着.......相邻维对我们这个宇宙的绞杀,已经基本进入了末期。” „These had the civilization that threatened extremely strongly to fall from the sky to them, but now, they start to set aside the hand, must cope like us, has opportunity ’ to make the civilization of water pump merely ‚.” “那些对他们有极强威胁的文明都已经陨灭了,而现在,他们开始腾出手来,要对付像我们这样的、仅仅是‘有机会’造出抽水机的文明。” „This universe surplus civilizations ....... are not perhaps many. Our present range most advanced civilization, only has 20 years of disparity most.” “这个宇宙剩余的文明.......恐怕已经不多了。我们现在距离最先进的文明,最多只有20年的差距。” „---- It is not right.” “----不对。” „Quantum spirit, or the quantum probability clouds, what it sees will be the future result.” “量子幽灵、或者说量子概率云,它看到的是未来的结果。” „In other words, in this time online, neighboring definitely will begin to us, that also means that leads we 20 years of civilization, 20 years later, will fall from the sky.” “也就是说,在这个时间线上,相邻维必然会对我们动手,那也就意味着,那个领先我们20年的文明,在20年后,就会陨灭。” „By that time, we are in this entire universe, most advanced civilization.” “到了那个时候,我们就是这整个宇宙中,最先进的文明。” „Yes.” “是的。” leaf boat lies down on the chair, does the eye wink is staring the starry sky of top of the head, as if must these trillion years ago in star total revenue eye that starts to glitter. 叶舟重新躺回椅子上,眼睛一眨不眨地瞪着头顶的星空,仿佛要将那些从亿万年前就开始闪烁的星星全部收入眼中。 Long time later, he says: 良久之后,他才开口说道: „20 years later, we are not only this universe most advanced civilization.” “20年之后,我们不仅仅是这个宇宙最先进的文明。” „And has the possibility very much, we are this universe, only hope.” “并且很有可能,我们还是这个宇宙,唯一的希望。”
