Chapter Seventy-Five: Who solves the confusion when you first know the barbarian, and what is the madness on the way to steal the teacher

In the past few days, Mu Qian has been dancing in this jungle like a carefree butterfly, and he has not met a barbarian, but has made a friend. This friend of his was of a strange size, like an oversized rabbit on Earth, with snow-white, smooth fur, and a pair of long, large ears, and when he stood up, he was more than a meter tall.

However, it would be very dangerous for anyone to have the impression of meekness and loveliness because of his appearance, for his fangs were no less than those of any beast, and under the cover of his snow-white fur, his limbs were not only strong, but also had jagged blades like the forefeet of a praying mantis, which could easily cut other living beings into pieces.

This friend of Mu Qian calls himself Rorschach, an intelligent life native to the planet of the Barbarians. According to him, his civilization came to the Chaos Realm very early, and after several tosses, he gained a foothold on this planet. Although they are still the prey of the barbarians, they have an incomparably rich survival experience here.

"There's nothing wrong with living here, it's free, uninhibited, never bothered, and occasionally you can play a cat-and-mouse game with powerful savages, so that life is always full of the most real fun. Rorschach said to Mu Qian.

Rorschach's life was highly evolved, and the two of them initially communicated through gestures, but Rorschach quickly learned the language of the earth and was eventually able to speak fluently. After a day, there was no communication barrier between them.

"Being preyed upon by others may become a barbarian's food at any time, how can you still be satisfied with such a life?" Mu Qian couldn't understand Rorschach's thinking.

"That's because you don't know the barbarians, you don't know the heights they have reached. Barbarians are absolutely free and will not be bound by anything in the outside world, can you imagine what kind of society is a society with no rules and no order at all?" said Rorschach, lying on the grass.

"That's why they call them barbarians, and that's a fitting name. Mu Qian said.

"Haha, let me tell you, in the barbarian community, there is not a single barbarian who needs to obey others, and no barbarian who depends on others to live. They have no leader, no power structure, and only when individuals reach a level that you can't imagine, can such a civilized society emerge. Rorschach thought for a moment, then continued:

"In fact, the identity of cats and mice is not so absolute, and the life forms of our other races may also be cats. To tell you the truth, I once hunted down a barbarian, and I only narrowly missed him. Rorschach's voice was filled with regret.

Mu Qian didn't speak, and it was difficult for him to understand what Rorschach was saying: what is the use of a loose social group with no social order and no power structure?

As if to see what Mu Qian was thinking, Rorschach continued:

"It is true that the barbarian community has been over-liberalized, but they have not created other loopholes because of this. In their evolutionary journey, they have laid a very solid foundation for everything they have today, and if you have the opportunity to witness the battle of 10,000 people during the barbarian hunt, you will understand what I am talking about, and you will understand what the 'organizational paradox' of the Messy Domain is. ”

"What exactly is an organizational paradox? What is a 10,000-person group?" asked Mu Qian.

"No one can say the organizational paradox, but no one can deny that it is the greatest miracle of the universe. As for the 10,000-man group, there is an unwritten rule among the barbarians that the size of other civilizations cannot exceed 10,000 people. ”

"What if it exceeds? A civilization can't have more than 10,000 people, it's too bullying. ”

"It's just that there can't be more than 10,000 people in a gathering place, and the people in this gathering place don't necessarily belong to just one civilization, but may also be a combination of different life forms from many civilizations. As long as no more than 10,000 people gathered, the barbarians only hunted sporadically, and at most hundreds or thousands of barbarians spontaneously appeared to attack the gathering place at the same time. And if it is more than 10,000 men, then some barbarians will gather and fight a small local battle until this gathering place is destroyed. ”

"What if other civilizations gather together and are so powerful that the barbarians can't destroy them?" Mu Qian suddenly asked.

"Hehe, on this planet, all the small wars of the barbarians, in terms of numbers, have always been one to two, or even one to three. With the organizational paradox, the barbarians have always won more with less, and there is almost no chance that the barbarians will gather into a group of 10,000 people. Rorschach knew that Mu Qian had just arrived here, so he didn't particularly despise his ignorance.

"And if the 10,000 people of other civilizations can really win against 10,000 barbarians, then they have won the same right to survive as barbarians on this planet. Many people believe this statement, and there are rumors that it is a promise made by barbarians a long time ago, but I think it is simply a lie. Because from what I know about barbarians, they actually don't bother to give any promises, the same with anyone. ”

"Is it so powerful?" Mu Qian whispered alone, his mood extremely excited, he remembered what he was going to do here. At this moment, the determination to crack the secret of the barbarians was incomparably stronger in his heart.

"Just a few months ago, a cottage of 4,000 people was breached by more than 1,000 barbarians, so I was left in the jungle, and now I am planning to find another cottage to support myself. What about you, do you want to come with me?" asked Rorschach.

"Are you looking for your people?"

"No, after decades of living here, our race has been completely assimilated by the barbarians, the whole group has been scattered, and we try to learn to pursue an independent life like the barbarians, hoping that one day we can reach their heights. So, I don't really have any clansmen, I just want to find a powerful cottage and continue to play games with barbarians. Rorschach said.

Mu Qian couldn't help but hesitate when he heard this: Is a weak life like him qualified to play games with barbarians? Will another cottage accept him?

"Don't worry, most of the gathering places of life are mixed, and there are many weak people there. In fact, it is safer for people like you, because in case the cottage is breached by barbarians, under normal circumstances, they will not do anything to a weak life form like you, they are more interested in just breaking up the gathering place of a life form. ”

"Okay. Mu Qian finally decided to go with Rorschach, he could see that Rorschach was a very frank, straightforward, honest and enthusiastic person, and would not play any bad thoughts on him. Moreover, he also knew very well in his heart that he had to contact the barbarians in order to do it, otherwise how to discover the secret of their "carving their own lives".

The peaks are like gathering, and the waves are like fury. Mu Qian and Rorschach spent two days climbing over countless mountains, and at this moment they stood on top of a peak and looked at the majestic beauty of the mountains and green waves in front of them.

According to Rorschach, in order to survive in the jungle, many life beings will gather to form cottages of different scales. Some cottages are very primitive, and even rely on planting and gathering to sustain life, while some cottages are technologically advanced and can control nuclear energy. But all this, no matter how different it may be, is always shrouded in the iron fist of the barbarians.

Most of these cottages are not easy to find, they are generally very secretive, either hidden with the help of natural environment, or have extraordinary technological means. Rorschach could live alone in the jungle, his life level had reached the planetary level, but he felt that such a life was meaningless, he wanted to make contact with the barbarians in a group, and then go to find his own heart.

Mu Qian, on the other hand, is only a Homo sapiens life, and life in the jungle is a great threat to him, and if he has always been alone, it is basically difficult to survive here for a long time.

"The area is mountainous, densely jungled, and crossed by a large river, and there is a good chance that there is a living cottage hidden somewhere. Rorschach said.

"What we can find, the barbarians will definitely be able to find, is such a cottage really safe?" Mu Qian said.

"First of all, you have to know that on this planet, barbarians are actually only a minority, and some weak beings who live here all their lives may not have the opportunity to meet a barbarian. Secondly, barbarians are unorganized, and even if a barbarian discovers a cottage, he may not have the ability to destroy it. Normally, this barbarian would only try on his own, or even throw his life there, without gathering other barbarians. No, the word 'conven' is absent in the world of barbarians, and none of them will obey anyone. ”

Mu Qian became more and more confused, and with his current cognition, he couldn't understand everything about the barbarians at all. But he had a new fear: how tragic would he be if he were here until he died, and he would not see a single savage?

"Only if a living form is very strong, or a cottage is very strong, will it come into the field of vision of the barbarians. The more powerful it is, the more it will attract the attention of the Barbarian, but the Barbarian is very arrogant, and if one target is not worth the attack of two Barbarians at the same time, the second Barbarian will usually leave on its own. The barbarians gathered to besiege a cottage, which is basically the case, and it all depends on the value of the cottage in the eyes of the barbarians. Rorschach explained.

Now Mu Qian understood one thing: the barbarians were the apex predators on this planet, and they maintained respect for each other like lone rangers, while disdainful of casual cooperation. There is certainly something collective in their eyes, but what is more important is themselves.

What does such an individual being, such a group society, look like? At this moment, Mu Qian became unquenchably interested in barbarian civilization.

"Let's go, go into the valley. As he spoke, Rorschach jumped up and descended from the peak of a few thousand meters high. Regarding Rorschach's bouncing ability, Mu Qian had long been extremely envious, and he had nothing to say at all. But he still couldn't imagine that Rorschach would dare to jump at such a height, wouldn't he be afraid of falling to his death?

There was no way, Mu Qian held the sharp unsheathed dagger in his hand, cutting through the branches and weeds all the way, and opened up a way down the mountain for himself. Before he could take a few steps from the top of the mountain, Mu Qian fell into a dark forest world.

He actually liked this environment very much in his heart, and although he didn't know the trees around him at all, he could still roughly judge the growth habits of these trees, and even determine which plants were poisonous and which were not. In this regard, even Rorschach was amazed by him, because with this ability alone, Mu Qian could pick some fruit in the jungle and eat it without fear of being poisoned.

After walking down a little and a half with difficulty, Mu Qian, who was out of breath, was ready to take a break. But just as he was about to sit down, a black shadow behind him smashed into the back of his head with the sound of wind. Mu Qian's physical fitness and reaction speed have far exceeded the general level of human beings on the earth when he left the earth, but he has not yet undergone a qualitative change.

Feeling the sneak attack from behind, Mu Qian rolled around on a donkey and dodged. Then he did not dare to look back at all, and immediately got up and ran down the hill. With a "bang", Mu Qian quickly flew back upside down. Another sneak attacker suddenly appeared in front of him, and I don't know how to smash him back at once.

Mu Qian, who was dizzy for a while, didn't have time to make any response, he was wrapped around a cold rope around his throat, and he wanted to scream but couldn't make a sound. He was then coerced into descending the mountain from the other direction.

Mu Qian, who was tightly strangled by his throat, the green tendons on his neck and shoulders flare up, he tried his best to resist the force on his neck, and then held his breath sharply, and his head hit back. "Bang", Mu Qian felt his head hit a piece of hard glass, and suddenly there was a piercing pain. However, he could no longer care about this, and while the rope around his neck was slightly loosened, his right hand finally regained a little strength, so he did not hesitate to thrust the black dagger he held in his hand backwards.

"Woo woo......" Mu Qian's ears rang out with such a sharp call, and the rope around his neck was completely loosened. Mu Qian raised his left hand and slammed his elbow backwards. Immediately after that, a huge force came from behind him, and Mu Qian staggered forward. Although his elbow was missed, he was still out of control, and he was able to get a chance to see who was attacking him head-on.

A strange creature as tall as him covered his lower body and bared its teeth there, which was the "whine" sound coming from his mouth. At this moment, the original brown armor on his body was stabbed by Mu Qian with a dagger, although no blood flowed out, he still had a very painful expression.

And, on his head, he was wearing a transparent thing, like a glass cover, and it was hazy inside, so Mu Qian couldn't see what he looked like. In short, the monster that sneaked up on him was wrapped in airtightness and looked weird.

The sound of footsteps came from behind him, and another identical sneak attacker also appeared, and they sandwiched Mu Qian in the middle, one left and one right. Mu Qian, on the other hand, bowed his back slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and the dagger in his hand swung slightly, he was ready to fight. In this regard, he actually has some experience and has seen a lot of bloody incidents, so he is not panicked at the moment.

He didn't speak, because he knew that it was impossible for the two sneak attackers to understand what he was saying, and their life level was not high.

The sound of "hiss" came out, and Mu Qian's head immediately became bigger. The two sneak attackers actually took out their weapons, two identical whips, with a slight white electric spark flashing on them.

"Whew", a whip rolled towards Mu Qian, Mu Qian lowered his head to avoid it, and then turned his head and ran. It is no joke to be whipped with such a whip, and if you have an external injury, it is very dangerous in the jungle without medicine. As for entering the white blade empty-handed or something, Mu Qian had never touched it, and he didn't have the courage to try it at the moment.

Mu Qian, who was running for his life, suddenly tripped over an exposed tree root, and the two pursuers behind him did not let go of this opportunity, and the two whips were immediately pulled down vigorously. Mu Qian didn't have time to stand up, so he rolled directly down the mountain with his head in his hands. The sound of "crackling" sparks came, and the dead leaves behind Mu Qian were immediately ignited, and then the fire broke out almost instantaneously and began to spread into the distance.

Suddenly, a vine appeared in front of him, Mu Qian put the dagger in his hand in his mouth and bit it, then jumped up from the ground, grabbed the vine and swung forward. Then he stomped his feet on a large tree trunk in front of him, and swung back with the help of the reaction force. A whip grazed his cheek, and Mu Qian's feet kicked on one of the pursuers, kicking him flying, and at the same time, Mu Qian let go of his hand, and his body fell, avoiding another whip in time.

Mu Qian, who fought back slightly, continued to rush down the mountain without a head after landing on the ground, his dagger was too short, and he ran into a long weapon like a whip, so he only had to hold his head and run away. Behind him, two strange lifeforms were in hot pursuit.

Seeing that Mu Qian was about to be entangled in two snake-like whips at the critical moment, a white shadow flashed past him, followed by two rapid "woo" chirps behind him, and everything was calm again. Mu Qian, who could barely breathe, sat down on the ground, fortunately Rorschach arrived in time, otherwise his life would be over.

"What the hell is this?" Mu Qian asked, pointing to the two strange lifeforms on the ground.

"They are anaerobe, mainly in the Pacian Plateau north of this jungle, and I didn't expect to be here. Rorschach's long ears bobbled back and forth, and he struggled to think about the situation in front of him.

"Are you afraid of oxygen?" asked Mu Qian.

"It's not that they're afraid of oxygen, it's that they don't adapt to the oxygen-rich environment of this jungle, so they completely shut themselves off, which may have something to do with the environment of their home planet. Rorschach explained absentmindedly.

"I haven't seen them again, why do you want to kill me?

"They shouldn't have come for you, they might have come for me. The reason why I know that they are anaerobic is because they are still famous on this continent. It is said that their civilization was very cohesive, and they established a small city-state of 7,000 men on the Pacian plateau, and more than 2,000 barbarians surrounded by it, and these 2,000 barbarians have not yet breached their castle. ”

"What does this have to do with you?" asked Mu Qian.

"The anaerobic people are ambitious and want to break through the limit of 10,000 people. Before I met you, I happened to meet people from the anaerobes, who had invited me to the Pacian plateau, and I refused. Because in the eyes of the barbarians, they are not of great value, and only more than two thousand barbarians are besieging their castle of seven thousand, and it is only a matter of time before they are breached. Rorschach explained.

"So what do we do now?" asked Mu Qian.

"Let's go our separate ways. I really didn't expect these anaerobic people to be so stubborn and have no character, and I will be affected by me. Be careful yourself, as long as you don't go into the depths of the jungle, you should be able to survive. Rorschach said.

Mu Qian understood a little again: on this planet, challenge is the only main theme. Barbarians challenge other beings by their hunting methods, seeking development in the form of individuals. The rest of life responds to the barbarians in a group way, and at the same time challenges the barbarians, trying to break through the so-called limit of 10,000 people.

"Has there never been a life gathering place that has been able to break through the limit of 10,000 people before?

"There were more than 10,000 gatherings, but they were all short-lived, and soon fell into the hands of the barbarians. The organizational paradox of the barbarians ignores the number of people at all, the more powerful they are, and the battlefield is their eternal stage. Rorschach's tone was filled with infinite respect and yearning for the barbarians.

The corners of Mu Qian's mouth curled slightly: the barbarian is also his direction and his future, and he will definitely be able to crack the secret of the barbarian "carving his own life". At that time, there will definitely be a place for the earthlings in this chaotic realm, and no one can bully the earthlings at will.

Mu Qian's fists clenched tightly: he thought of Liu Yanxiao's stubborn and unyielding posture, but in the end she still fell.

"Hurry up, hundreds of people are coming up from the foot of the mountain. Rorschach suddenly said to Mu Qian.

"Are you still anaerobic?"

"I'm not sure, but whoever it is can be dangerous to you. I'm trying my best to get your attention, and I hope you get away with it. Rorschach said, and in a few jumps, he rushed through the surrounding sea of fire to meet the people below. Like a barbarian, he likes to face challenges head-on, and he doesn't bully the weak, so he walks with Mu Qian.

Mu Qian looked at the growing wildfires around him, and his mind turned sharply, he decided to run to the top of the mountain first, and then see if he could find a gentle ridge before going down the mountain, preferably avoiding those anaerobic people. Fortunately, the mountain is at a high altitude, the forest is lush, and the water vapor is abundant, and the wildfire is gradually getting smaller halfway up the mountain, and there is no tendency to continue to spread upward.

Mu Qian climbed back to the top of the mountain in a disgraced manner, his physical strength had been seriously depleted, but where would he find something to eat for a while? At this moment, he was extremely weak, and he really wanted to lie down in the cold wind on the top of the mountain for a while, so that his sweat could cool down. But he also knew very well that every second was at stake, and he had to find another way down the mountain as soon as possible.

The sound of "boom" suddenly came from behind, and Mu Qian turned his head suddenly, only to see a flying machine similar to a fighter on Earth hovering behind him. Mu Qian immediately pulled his legs and ran, he didn't expect that the anaerobic people would have such technological means.

The sound of "puff puff" was incessant, and the flying machine launched an attack on Mu Qian, but it didn't seem to aim at him, but just dumped countless bullets, forcing Mu Qian to hug his head and run away in the flying of stone chips, preventing him from having a chance to leave the range of the top of the mountain.

With a "swish", a white shadow jumped out of front of Mu Qian, and then pounced on the fighter aircraft in the air. Rorschach knew that the anaerobic people were using Mu Qian to seduce him, but like the barbarians, he put his fear out of his own psychology and resolutely climbed to the top of the mountain again to save Mu Qian.

A small sound of "buzzing" came quickly, and Mu Qian was instantly rushed out of the top of the mountain by a sound wave, tumbling like a fallen leaf and falling halfway up the mountain. The anaerobic people on the fighter plane, in the face of Rorschach's fierce attack, did not fire very low-level kinetic energy bullets like playing Mu Qian, but directly launched a super sonic attack.

This trick is very effective, the coverage of the sonic attack is very large, the penetration is very strong, Rorschach was directly pressed down by the sound wave, and smashed heavily on the top of the mountain, and then, all the raised rocks and plants on the top of the mountain were flattened by the impact of the sound wave, turning into a smooth and flat large stone slab.

Mu Qian fell from the top of the mountain, breaking countless branches and trunks in the dense forest, and finally fell on a pile of thick dead leaves, he was still alive, but there were tiny blood lines bending and flowing outside his eyes, ears, mouth and nose. In fact, he only fell a few dozen meters, which was almost equivalent to jumping out of the top of the mountain, and then rolling down for a distance.

On the top of the mountain, several thick weapon barrels on the fighter aircraft forced the injured Rorschach on the ground, so that he did not dare to move in the slightest. Then, a voice came from the fighter:

"Actually, we're not here to find you, we're here to find the earthling. If he, like you, comes back to save you with affection and righteousness, we will let you go. ”

"Whether he comes back or not, it's impossible to escape. It's ridiculous that you are playing tricks on other people. Rorschach said coldly. They use a cosmic language similar to a curtain to communicate, directly conveying multi-dimensional pictures, visions, consciousness, emotions and other information.

"We just want to know why they earthlings are so valuable, and why are they worthy of the highest level of bounty issued by the electromagnetic civilization. Said the anaerobic man on board the fighter plane.

Rorschach was stunned when he heard this: Mu Qian can actually have something to do with electromagnetic civilization, how is this possible?

Actually, all this is a misunderstanding. First of all, the anaerobic people thought that Mu Qian was an earthling who ran out of the barbarians, but in fact Mu Qian did not belong to Xie Yu's group, he had just come to this planet. Secondly, the electromagnetic civilization has long canceled the hunt and kill order for earthlings, so Mu Qian at this moment is not worth much. It's a pity that no one has come to solve such a misunderstanding.
