The line segment that finally answered Shi Jian's words made Shi Jian even more confused: "Look at yourself, what to see, where to look?" But he quickly thought again: "Could it be that there is already the ability to record information here?"

This question has been bothering him for nearly 20,000 years. The memory of their Shijian civilization is very primitive, and it is still the rope, and they pull a knot on it, and after a long time, there are many knots, and they can't remember anything clearly. He also came up with the idea of inventing a script to describe things. But what their eyes see are line segments, no matter how much the line segment changes, it is still a line segment, what can change?

Shi Jian looked curiously, the child who was talking, he sensed that this was a juvenile pentagon, and then he looked at the line segment on the side of the five sides with his eyes, pointing to the place: a slender green sign, covered with: '••,--', all of which are different digits of '•,-', or combinations of positions.

Seeing this, although Shi Jian didn't understand the meaning, he also thought that there must be some connection in it: "Little friend, can anyone tell me what is written on it?

As soon as I heard that there was something delicious, the few lines that were having a hot time all ran over. Shi Jian immediately took out the gifts and delicacies he had prepared and distributed them to these children, and at the same time knocked on their mouths: "Grandpa, that sign says 'Beigang Village'." ”

"Is this the name of your village?"

"That's right!" One of the children was holding a toy given by Shi Jian in his hand, eating snacks from other places in his mouth, and whimpering: "Your question is so strange!

"Then can you tell me what kind of people are these '••,--'?" Shi Jian asked politely.

"Will you give me something to eat?" replied the boy very well-behaved.

"Yes! Of course it will!" Shi Jian replied excitedly: "Not only you, but also other children, not only do they have delicious food, but also a lot of good toys?"

In order to facilitate the search for news, Shi Jian will always prepare a lot of things. This is also his experience over time.

"What',--!" said the child, "It's called the Morse code." If you want to learn to read, you have to memorize the 26-letter Morse code combination. Because every sentence we say, every word in it, its pronunciation is composed of initials and finals, and these initials and finals are composed of these 26 letters.

For example, if you and I have the word 'I', it is pronounced 'wo', where 'w' is the initial and 'o' is the final, and then you can know according to the Morse code: '·--' stands for 'w', and '- --' stands for 'o'. So when you see the Morse ciphers of '·--' and '- --', you know that this is the word 'I'.

This is one of the reasons why Li Tian has always been unaccustomed to staying in this world. In the three-dimensional world where he used to live, he could see the whole picture of the word 'I' at a glance, unlike here where he can only see a little line segment of a certain stroke of the word 'I'.

As a guy who has lived for more than 20,000 years, he naturally has his own set of shorthand methods. After more than an hour, Shi Jian not only firmly memorized the comparison table between the 26 letters and the Morse code, but also remembered many Morse code combinations that used words in daily life.

Before leaving, Shi Jian took out some small toys and gave them to these children, and then said, "Who knows that the city near you is the most prosperous?"

"Who doesn't know this!" the children chirped, "Of course it's 'Chungang'!"

"Do you know where to go?"

"Grandpa, you're so stupid!" The children don't speak alone, and they always talk nonsense: "Our village is 'Beigang Village', which means that we are a village north of 'Chungang City'!

In Shi Jian's twelve civilizations, giving directions to others is all directed to others by 'this side' and 'that side'. Where do you know what 'north' is?

The head of these children, after all, was a little older, and immediately sensed the embarrassment of time, and then thought that he didn't even know the most basic Morse code, and randomly thought of something: "Grandpa, you shouldn't be a resident of our here, but a resident of the Holy Civilization, right?"

Shi Jian, who originally wanted to hide his identity, never expected that because of his ignorance, he would be suspected by a child. However, he still thinks that he is the most holy civilization outside their territory. It seems that in the future, I must be careful in what I say and do here. Faced with the suspicion of the child's leader, Shi Jian felt that there was no need to hide anything from the child, what would they do?

"You must be here for the first time, and before you came, you didn't inquire about our affairs here, right? I'll introduce you to our situation here for free!" Shi Jian, who originally thought it was a bad thing, never expected that this kid would take the initiative to introduce their affairs here: "We're 'Motianchuan Civilization' that welcomes any peaceful civilization to come to us for sightseeing." ”

At this time, Shi Jian knew that this was a civilization established by the name of 'Ferris River'. Although he wanted to ask these children what kind of civilization was here, he didn't dare to ask for fear that they would resist outsiders. It's good now, people took the initiative to say it.

"The Morse Code we just talked about was created by a person named 'Morse', this person has never been seen by anyone, and it is not in our Morse civilization now. These are handed over to us by our 'Civilization Ancestor Li Tian', and we are the descendants of our 'Humanistic Ancestor Shu Yuchuan'. These three people have played a huge role in the rise of our place, so we call it 'Ferris River Civilization' here!" The child was full of pride as he spoke.

Listening to the child's words, Shi Jian coughed a few times in embarrassment, and thought, "It turns out that there are three people!

"Just now you asked us where is the nearest and most prosperous city here? It is directly south of our Beigang Village, and the lord of the city there is our clansman Shu·····"

"Slow little brother, what is the 'south' you are talking about?" Shi Jian is really not interested in who they are here, he is not here to make friends, but to investigate the reason why the world has become longer, so he doesn't want to have any unpleasant things with the forces here for the time being.

"Look, that's the direction to the south. As he spoke, the child's body moved, Shi Jian looked at the direction the line was pointing, and couldn't help but suddenly realize it, and said softly: "It turns out that the south side means 'over there' to eat!"

Although his words were very light, they still made the boy hear: "Then can you also tell me what the north side means?"

Shi Jian still thought that he didn't know that there was still the meaning of 'this side'? He explained with a smile: "The north side means 'this side'! This is actually a noun, and the civilizations of our two families are different!"

"Really?" the child's face smiled evilly, "Then grandpa can explain to me: What does 'east' mean, what does 'west' mean, and what does 'southeast, northeast, southwest, northwest' mean?"

Now, Shi Jian knows that he is clever but he has been mistaken by cleverness! A person who can solve a problem that he can't solve in 20,000 years, how can he be a superficial person when thinking about problems?

Shi Jian completely put away this time, his strong and arrogant heart, and sincerely humbly asked for advice: "Little brother, can you tell me about the south, north, east, and west you are talking about here, is it over there?"

"How should I explain it to you? You should listen and follow me as you do!" The child explained to Shi Jian and said: "First of all, you first perceive the magnetic field lines in the magnetic waves in the world's magnetic field, and then, naturally open your own magnetic field and carefully perceive the direction of the magnetic field lines that make up the world's magnetic field.

We, Li Tian Ancestor, called the magnetic field lines of the world, the side of our magnetic field, within ourselves, as the 'positive pole'. The outside of our body is called 'north' or 'north', and the side that exits our magnetic field is called 'negative', 'south', and then the east and west directions are determined according to the south and north directions, and finally, the southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest directions are determined from east, west, south, and north. ”

Hearing this, Shi Jian couldn't help but give a thumbs up: in his eleven civilizations allied with him, if someone asked for directions, they would say 'this way' or 'that side', and twist their bodies and point to others.

Because the world's magnetic field law is stable, people have determined the eight directions of the world through the direction of the magnetic field lines of the magnetic field, and named them after Yu, which greatly facilitates the rhythm of daily life.

With a lot of thoughts, he looked forward to the prosperity of Chungang City, and his body moved quickly. As it was close to dusk, he finally came to the outside of Chungang City.

Although it was already dusk, Shi Jian still saw the lines swaying back and forth in front of him, and only then did he know that these were the flow of people entering and leaving the city.

"Please show your ID!" When Shi Jian followed the flow of people and walked to the gate of the city, he was stopped by the guards of Chungang City.

"ID card?" The guard's words stopped Shi Jian again, and he thought to himself, puzzled: "What kind of trick is this that named Li Tian is doing again?"

Sensing Shi Jian's appearance, the guards knew what was going on: "If you are not a resident of our Motianchuan civilization, please go to the household registration management office at the main gate over there, register for the record, and go through the procedures for entering the city." ”
