Chapter 2: Paul of the Il

"Huh? It looks like I've been caught by something...... I can't rely on it! ”

Just as Yang Ye was indulging in this fantasy feeling, suddenly his wrist was grabbed by something, and then his whole body was dragged into the blue light!

Next, Yang Ye and the alien Paul were both stunned......

"This ...... This Nima is...... Monster? ”

"Sure enough, it's an intelligent creature, I can feel his brain wave activity! What beautiful black eyes! ”

Big eyes stare at small eyes, aliens stare at aliens,

Yang Ye felt a chill down his spine at this time, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "Dreaming, I must be dreaming, this thing is an alien?" Two hands and two legs, two eyes and a mouth, tentacles about 20 cm on the forehead, the skin is green, and the height should look more than 1.8 meters......"

"I rub, what's the barb on his arm? It looks violent! …… Wait, this thing looks like a ...... Big praying mantis. ”

Paul lowered his head and stared at Yang Ye: "So white skin, his eyes are like the night sky...... It turned out that it was just his arm...... His heart was beating so fast, and he was paying attention to me, which should be a courtesy. He should look like a good creature and won't hurt Paul......"

After looking at each other for five minutes, Yang Ye saw that the 'big mantis' was still staring at him, so he raised his arm mechanically and stammered: "Hello, big mantis, no, no, alien ......"

He felt that his whole body was rusty, and every time he moved, he felt very strained, and his crazy heartbeat woke him almost every moment "You have to calm down!" You're in danger now! If you don't die, you won't die! Suffer death, Yang Ye! ”

"Hello intelligent creatures, it's an honor to meet you."

Paul didn't know what it meant for Yang Ye to raise his hand, he followed the tradition of the Yir people, bowed down and put his right hand on his chest, expressing the highest respect to Yang Ye.

Seeing this, Yang Ye reacted, he was like a rusty machine, and put his hand on his chest like a gourd: "You are also an alien." ”

Paul did not understand his language, but he looked very happy, gesturing his fingers and saying, "I am glad to have your respect." Luckily, I picked up a set of psychic resonators yesterday...... It's an old thing, but with it, we can have a good conversation. ”

"Damn, it's like a chicken and a duck." Yang Ye saw that he pointed to his mouth, and then pointed to the sundries on the right side, thinking that he was going to invite himself to eat: "Oh, you can eat, I have eaten." Hehe, a big drip! ”

"Thank you, I'm looking forward to talking to you as well." Paul misunderstood what Yang Ye meant, bowed excitedly, and began to search the garbage heap.

"Whew, this product won't be looking for cutlery anymore, will it? And then kill me like a pig and make a steak? ”

When he turned around, Yang Ye's wildly beating heart finally eased, but his brain was still joking with him, and this joke made him even more worried.

Turning his neck mechanically, Yang Ye saw that the four sides were closed rock walls, and the whole room was arched, like an earthen cave in Shaanxi.

There are various miscellaneous items around it, including metal utensils and woven cloth decorations that resemble cotton and linen.

In front of you hangs a transparent TV, which is the highlight of the room.

With a thickness of less than 5 mm, a large screen of nearly 2 meters, no power cord, and a full sense of science and technology. The content shown in the screen is probably that several 'mantis monsters' are robbing banks.

Underneath the TV is a large wooden table with a transparent container and a variety of glowing plants with fruit like light bulbs, which provide indoor lighting.

In general, the whole interior style and living objects are very close to the earth, if you throw away the image of the Paul praying mantis, it is like some primitive tribe on the earth.

"It seems that this big praying mantis is also an ordinary person." After some consideration, Yang Ye calmed down a lot.

He patted his numb calf, and suddenly saw a 'light gate' behind him! It's exactly the same thing he found in Plant 2!

"This ...... It...... Are these two doors connected? That's the thing that dragged me in? Wait a minute! Travel through time and space...... Damn, isn't this a wormhole? ”

"This ......" Yang Ye glared at the beads of his eyes and slapped himself in the face, and after a long time, he began to show a happy expression!

"Developed, developed! If you can use this wormhole to bring alien technology back, you can't even think about it! ”

"Calm down! Damn, how do I calm down, you tell me how to calm down, mother, the wind and waves are too big! ”

Yang Ye's excited limbs began to tremble now, his hands kept rubbing, and his eyes couldn't stop shining while staring at Paul!

"Opportunity, once in a lifetime! I've got to get hold of it! ”

After a while, Paul pulled out a palm-sized box from the garbage.

On the surface, it looks like iron, and the shape is as smooth as a pebble, with a slight rust. A thin transparent wire with a length of one meter at each end hangs down, and a thumb-sized suction cup is attached to the end of the thread.

Paul put one end on his arm and handed the other to Yang Ye, signaling him to do the same.

At this time, Yang Ye realized that for a long time, this alien did not want to invite himself to dinner, but to talk to him.

"This thing, it's an alien translator!" Yang Ye did not hesitate to stick the suction cup on the back of his hand.

Marx once said: When the profit reaches 100%, some people dare to take risks; When the profit reaches 200%, they dare to risk going to the guillotine. And when the profit reaches 300%, they will trample on all the laws of the world!

For Yang Ye, this opportunity is not 100, nor 300, but infinite! Just when he was inadvertent, Yang Ye had the idea of 'killing the big mantis'!

However, this idea is ridiculous and short-lived, and what he is thinking about now is how to cooperate, or turn the big mantis in front of him into his 'alien partner'!

"What is a Partner?" Through this 'resonator', Paul can clearly hear Yang Ye's heart.

"Who's talking!" Yang Ye was frightened by the sudden sound and sat on the ground, and then looked at Paul.

Paul happily lifted him up: "I said it!" Great, I thought your brain waves were different from ours, it seems that we are very close species. Have a seat. ”

"Thank you." Yang Ye sat down with his brain tense, and now he didn't dare to have a bad idea: "Hello, what's your name, what's the name of this device?" It's amazing. ”

"My name is Paul, this is a spiritual resonator, and its function is to connect your and my brain waves, so as to avoid language barriers......"

Paul explained it briefly, and then happily asked, "What is your name?" From which galaxy? I've never seen an alien creature like you, did you make this 'Arbitrary Gate'? ”

"I see." Yang Ye didn't expect him to ask so many at once, and after thinking for a while, he said: "My name is Yang Ye, I am from the earth of the solar system, to be honest, it is the first time I have seen an alien like you, as for the 'arbitrary door' you said, it is this light gate?" ”

"Yes Ye!" Paul laughed and said, "If you can build any gate, you should have reached a high level of civilization!" ”

"Well, I didn't make this, I thought you made it." Yang Ye shook his head and told what had just happened.

"Then we're in luck!" After hearing this, Paul seemed very happy: "Know that it is God's will that any gate can appear anywhere, and that it can connect you and me!" ”

"Anywhere ......" Yang Ye shuddered suddenly, only then did he realize how dangerous it was just now.

If this 'arbitrary door' leads not to Alpha, but to outer space, or some other place where there is no oxygen, I am afraid that he will die by now.

……

After nearly 1 hour of conversation, Yang Ye roughly got the history of Alpha Star and Paul's living situation from Paul's mouth.

Alpha Star is a young planet, about 3 billion years old, about twice the size of Earth, with 3 moons and 14 continents.

Alpha Stars are also divided into races like earthlings, and there are more than 30,000 species of independent intelligence, distributed in the ocean, land and hills.

With seven kingdoms and allegiance to the Church, Alpha is a veritable religious planet.

The Alpha people firmly believe that it is the great God who gives them everything, and even technology is a gift from the gods.

Speaking of technology, in fact, the technology of Alpha Star is not as good as Yang Ye thought, and it is only a hundred years higher than the earth at most.

The country where Paul is located is called 'Il', with an average life expectancy of 300 years, located in the southern continent of Alpha Star, covering an area of 10 million square kilometers, including oceans, deserts, land, and plains.

The Ils are a mono-ethnic state, they are very hospitable, and the political system is like the British constitutional monarchy, and the aristocracy and merchants control the lifeblood of the country.

Paul's status was that of an inferior commoner, who had the right to live a free life, but had no political rights.

Paul was a wild breed who was born abandoned by his parents and raised by the church, financed by picking up garbage and relying entirely on state relief for food.

The place where he lives is a civilian area of the Il, and you can see a huge garbage dump at an altitude of 2,000 meters when you go out.

That's where all the things of Paul's life come from!

"Hehe, it seems that this kid is also a sling, and he has a chance." Yang Ye smiled secretly and took out half a box of China from his pocket. The surface of the cigarette case was already soaked with sweat.

Paul didn't understand what 'sling' meant, he stared at the cigarette case in Yang Ye's hand and asked, "Ye, what is this?" The ornamentation on it is so beautiful. ”

"It's called a cigarette, and it's made of a type of grass." Yang Ye slowly opened the lid of the box, took out one and handed it to him: "You can try it, it can make you feel happy." ”

Saying that, after Paul's permission, Yang Ye lit one beautifully.

"Paul, do you want to change your life? Or to become rich? Can't help but live in this kind of garbage dump again? ”

"Rich? Yes, I long for the life of the aristocracy. ”

Paul replied excitedly, but looking at his expression, it seemed that he didn't care about what Yang Ye said, but was fascinated by the smell of smoke in the air.

"Leaves, the scent of this grass is very unique! It smells so good! I felt like my soul was about to fly. You must be a very wealthy nobleman on Earth. ”

"Aristocrats?" Yang Ye was amused by his tone, and said mockingly: "I am so poor on the earth that I can't even eat, and the word rich has nothing to do with me." ”

"How so?! Do you use all your money to sell these cigarettes? Paul looked at him in disbelief, as if he had seen a man with gold in his hand saying that he was poor.

"I naturally can't afford to smoke this kind of cigarette, but ......" As soon as he said this, Yang Ye suddenly realized something: "Wait, what do you mean that this kind of tobacco is very valuable to you?" ”

"Yes Ye!" Paul greedily inhaled the smell of smoke in the air: "Her taste is very fascinating, and I am sure the nobles will like it." I can guarantee it! ”

"That's ......" Yang Ye gently flicked off the ashes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously smiled.
