The power of life comes from music, music is the source of the world
"Although star sand does not have the special value of rare minerals, such as energy or special physical properties. But for the star sand sky worm, star sand is a real treasure.
Because, Xingsha can sing? "
The singing stone is a strange thing that only appears in fairy tales, which naturally aroused Chu Yu's curiosity.
But before Chu Yu could ask, Chen Xiaoming had already introduced, "Although we humans cannot hear the sound of the universe due to our different evolutionary methods. But in fact, the universe is very lively.
Every planet, creature, and phenomenon in the universe is actually singing a song, their own song. This song is like a mark of history, maybe it's just a short rhythm, maybe it's a magnificent symphony, but we can't hear this song.
The same is true for planets. No matter what kind of planet they are, whether they have the birth of life or not, they are all singing their own songs. until they die.
However, although the stars are dead, their songs have not disappeared, but remain in the star sand.
The planet may disappear or become silent, but the star sand continues to travel in the infinite star realm, carrying the last memory of the stars, and continues to sing songs belonging to the stars.
Star sand records the songs of stars, and is the only thing that can prove that a dead star once existed.
Of course, these things generally cannot be cracked. Except for special beings like the Star Sand Celestial Insect, which are born with the ability to receive the music radiation waves of the stars, there are almost no things that can hear the song of the universe. Otherwise, the universe would not have the name of silence and vastness. No.
In short, although star sand is useless to most races, and not many races even know about the existence of star sand, for the star sand sky worm, it is the foundation of life.
When the star sand worm reaches adulthood, out of instinct, it will search for star sand. They need the music of star sand to keep their lives alive, thereby activating the body's absorption function, absorbing the energy of the universe, and maintaining body functions. of health.
Because when the body¡¯s energy is almost exhausted, the star sand sky worm will start to go through the coming of age ceremony. Therefore, there is not much time for them to maintain life after their coming-of-age ceremony, that is, there is little time left for the Star Sand Celestial Insects to find suitable Star Sand.
If they cannot find a suitable star sand within this limited time, they will die because their body energy is exhausted.
And if they can find a suitable star sand, this star sand will accompany them throughout their lives. "
Chu Yu nodded, seeming to understand, "Where will they go after finding the star sand?"
This kind of strange life in the universe is indeed interesting. It has many secrets. Out of curiosity, Chen Xiaoming has already learned a lot about the Star Sand Celestial Insect through [Xingwen], so Chu Yu¡¯s question will naturally not be difficult for him.
Without thinking much, Chen Xiaoming replied, "That's the most interesting part.
As a kind of cosmic life, the star sand worm is different from terrestrial life like us. It does not have a regular life cycle. The star sand worm is like a moving stone and does not have the metabolism of creatures like us. .
The life of the star sand sky worm is very long. As long as its absorption function is maintained and it can obtain enough energy, its life can be maintained forever.
However, although the star sand can give the star sand sky worm a life of almost thousands, tens of thousands, or even infinite years. However, the existence of Star Sand also limits the freedom of the Star Sand Celestial Insect.
The weight of the star sand is too heavy compared to the star sand sky worm.
With such a heavy stone hanging on the body, it is often difficult for Xingsha to even fly, let alone fly freely. It can be said to be a miracle that the star sand sky worm can still fly instead of turning into a bird like an ostrich that can only run.
Therefore, too heavy star sand makes it difficult for adult star sand worms to carry out long interstellar travels.
the reason is simple. Although there seems to be no gravity in the universe, the heavy weight of the star sand has no effect. But there is one problem that cannot be avoided. Star sand is not cosmic dust and always drifts everywhere.
For example, if the star sand worm is found on a planet, then the star sand worm may never have the chance to leave the planet, because it will not be able to leave the atmosphere with the star sand. Unless someone deliberately takes it off the planet.
But if this is the case, then the star sand sky worm will probably not be able to live for too long, because the star sand sky worm's life comes from energy, and the prerequisite for the normal operation of the energy absorber is to maintain a sense of rhythmand musicality. But no matter how good the music is, you will get bored if you keep listening to it every day.
Normally, when the Xingsha Tianying becomes bored with Xingsha¡¯s music, its energy absorber will reduce its working efficiency, and then it needs to travel around and receive a lot of new music to maintain its activity.
However, when this star sand sky worm cannot leave the planet, it naturally cannot find new music, and the result can be imagined. "
Chu Yu put her head in front of the little insect and stared at it carefully with her big red eyes.
The little insect was not afraid of the creatures, but fell into her hand, "What about this Star Sand Sky Crystal Insect?"
Chen Xiaoming shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Haha, I think you have already guessed it.
¡°Perhaps hearing Liuli¡¯s singing, this wandering immature star sand sky worm came to our Night Butterfly, where it found a star sand.
But just now, it completed its coming-of-age ceremony in front of me.
So if we don¡¯t throw it into space, this will be its home from now on. Because the butterfly still has spontaneous gravity, and it probably doesn't want to leave. "
"Really!" Chu Yu seemed very happy, but quickly asked, "Why do we have star sand here?"
"Do you like Xingsha Tianying Chong?" Chen Xiaoming did not answer, but asked instead.
"Of course." Chu Yu put her hand in front of her eyes, and the more she looked at it, the more she thought the singing insect was cute. "It is already my crew member, and I will definitely protect it!"
"Since you like it." Chen Xiaoming looked at the happy Chu Yu and then at the starry sky above his head. He hesitated and pressed a few times on the wrist wheel. "This is for you."
"What?" Chu Yu turned to look at Chen Xiaoming, "Isn't this an earring?"
"It's not an earring, its name is the Star CD Ring." Chen Xiaoming held a silver earring in his hand. The earring was hollow and looked very delicate.
