Qi Lin was shocked when he heard Zhuge Yun's words, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say...... Is it the builder of this place? ”

"Well, I think it should be." Zhuge Yun glanced up at the huge irregular object and said, his voice was not loud.

Su Qingyu was a little surprised and said, "How did you know?" By guessing? ”

Subsequently, Zhuge Yun expressed his own opinion—to make his own explanation of why this Adam's voice has an obvious incoherence and patchwork feeling.

"Oh my God! Do you think these words of Adam were conveyed by the builders of this place through my brain? So where are they? Su Qingyu asked.

"I don't know...... It's just a gut feeling. By the way, there are some principles and theoretical foundations of communication in linguistics, and you should know some about it, right? Zhuge Yun looked into her eyes and said slowly.

"Linguistics? I don't know much about it, you mean, like a non-zero-sum game...... Those builders were meant to speak to us on purpose? ”

"Most likely, maybe it's their purpose, to lure us there."

Qi Lin also interjected on the side: "Wait, if this is their purpose, then what do they rely on to communicate with us?" Is this brain wise? ”

Zhuge Yun shook his head and said, "I think that if they want to convey anything to us, they can only use tools. ”

"But how did you come to that conclusion? You...... Have you seen them, or have you studied this type of communication? Qi Lin continued to ask.

"No, like you, I've never been here, and I can't possibly study them. But ......"

"But your conclusion must be similar to the Dolphin Society's findings, right?" Su Qingyu said thoughtfully, and at the same time raised his head to look at Zhuge Yun's face.

"Dolphin Society? Well, you know that, too. It can be said that those studies do fall under the realm of linguistics. Zhuge Yun nodded.

The "Dolphin Society" mentioned by Su Qingyu is a linguistic theory that was developed in the first century AD. It was documented in the early studies of the "CIAA", and later divided into several schools, but there are fewer and fewer researchers in this area today.

The Dolphin Society's research has developed a whole system of theories, starting with the idea that organisms must have their own way of communicating with their populations, regardless of their level of intelligence. Second, assuming that a species has a roughly comparable level of intelligence to humans, then their level of communication may include a variety of means.

For example, in addition to voice communication, humans also have sign language, blind language, brainwave stimulation, drawings, etc.

Those early researchers believed that on Earth, in addition to humans, dolphins may be another extremely intelligent animal on our own planet, and there are many kinds of their races.

However, vision can be very limited in water, and sound is a good way to convey it. Because water is a good conductor of sound, sound waves travel fast and long distances in water, and it is one of the most effective ways to transmit signals in the ocean.

Dolphins communicate with each other in a way that is similar to human speech – sound communication.

Relying on whistle-like sounds, these sounds are produced by the vibrations of specific tissues, which operate similarly to the vocal cord vibrations of humans and many terrestrial creatures. However, compared to land, the transmission efficiency of sound is obviously very low, and there are many factors that interfere with it, so the dolphin population has developed an echolocation system, and by using echolocation with each other, they can still communicate at a distance of thousands of meters in the deep sea.

Studying the way dolphins communicate may help solve some problems with human means of communication.

If human beings have been able to create communication means that only advanced intelligent beings have in the hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, such as language and writing, then creatures under the same intelligent conditions should also have their own set of communication methods.

Therefore, the final direction of these studies laid one of the foundations of ephemeris linguistics for other explorations.

There was a feeling that once interstellar radio contact was established, we were faced with the task of communicating with intelligent species on another planet, so the effort to talk to dolphins was, in a sense, comparable to the task of communicating with intelligent species on another planet.

Through Zhuge Yun's rough explanation, the other 2 people nodded, this explanation is indeed very reasonable. But it still can't explain what happened to the voice of "Adam" coming out of the brain, which is a possibility at best.

"So, do you have any evidence to prove your conclusion?" Qi Lin thought about it for a while and didn't understand the connection, and the physicist's head began to dig into the roots.

"Of course there is, over there." Zhuge Yun grinned and pointed to the huge irregular black shadow above.

"Hey, I seem to get it, let's go check it out!" Su Qingyu smiled, walked towards those positions where no sound could be heard, walked a few steps and then turned back and said, "I hope our inference is correct." ”

"Wait, what do you understand?" Qi Lin followed with some confusion, glanced at the big guy above, and then looked at Zhuge Yun, and the other party also looked very confident.

After entering those strange areas, the three of them really couldn't hear any sound.

Su Qingyu roughly calculated the range of the area where the sound could not be transmitted, about 30-40 meters in diameter, it seemed to be a circle or a sphere, and she couldn't be sure whether the sky above the open area also had this effect of blocking sound.

Zhuge Yun carefully probed the ground, and sure enough, there were some differences from other places.

There seemed to be a flowing blue halo in the black crystal, like a hidden combustible ice in the deep sea, and it seemed to be moving in the direction of his footsteps.

"Huh? This stuff is interesting, you guys come and have a look. Zhuge Yun tried to jump forward, and the flowing dark substance followed as a matter of course. But he forgot that the sound here could not be transmitted, so he had to wave to the other two.

Qi Lin also tried to move his steps, and those black fluid bodies also flowed, and he was also surprised in his heart: What the hell is this? It's incredible, this place is full of mysteries!

Hmm, I think...... Su Qingyu kept raising his head, looking at the huge irregular polygons floating in the air, thoughtful: they should be one, or what is the connection?

Just as Su Qingyu withdrew his gaze from above, he saw Qi Lin running towards him quickly, his face was pale, his expression was flustered, as if he had seen a ghost, and at the same time pointed at it with a frightened gesture.

Su Qingyu looked in the direction of his finger and was suddenly stupefied.

A large, unwound black spike stretched out towards the top wall of the canopy, looking like the tentacles of some kind of arthropod, and it could be hundreds of meters long when it was seen.

"Ahh Oh my God, that's ......."

Standing on the ground in a daze, when she looked closer, there seemed to be a small blue dot of light on the tip of the tentacle-like thing.

She suddenly looked down at the dark fluid circulating under her feet, and suddenly seemed to realize something, and her heart suddenly reacted, isn't this blue point of light emitted by the fluid under her feet? It's just hidden in the dark crystal, and it looks like a dark blue.

Qi Lin grabbed her arm hard, still with that deep fear on his face, his arm waved wildly, and looked up again to signal her to take a closer look at the thing on it.

She found that there was one person missing, and exclaimed silently: "Hey, where is Zhuge Yun? ”
