DEEP DIVESTAKING INVENTORY: GLOW LICHEN
背包盘点：发光地衣

We lichen it!
我们喜欢它!


Below the surface, it’s dark. Darker still if you forget to bring your torches. But sometimes you’ll see a little softening in that darkness – just enough to allow you to identify which monstrosity is slowly shambling your way. Where does this dim light come from? It comes from glow lichen, which is our item of the week!
黑暗笼罩了地表下的空间。如果你忘记随身携带你的火把，这里会变得更加黑暗。但有时，你会在这一片黑暗中寻得一丝柔弱的光亮 —— 这份亮度足以让你辨认出正在缓慢地靠近你的怪物是什么。那么这微弱的光来自哪里呢？它来自我们的本周物品发光地衣！

Glow lichen is a relatively new addition to Minecraft’s floral cornucopia. It was added in the first part of the Caves & Cliffs Update, which was released in June 2021, as part of a broader reworking of the game’s cave systems.
发光地衣是 Mincraft 中丰富的植物大家庭中一个较新的成员。它是游戏洞穴系统重做的一部分，在2021年6月发布的洞穴与山崖更新的第一部分更新中被加入。



You’ll find glow lichen generating naturally inside caves, on stone, andesite, diorite, granite, calcite, tuff, deepslate, and dripstone blocks that are exposed to air or water. It’s easy to break, but if you want to collect some then you’ll need a pair of shears to gently scissor it off the wall.
发光地衣，自然生成于洞穴内部暴露于空气或水中的石头、安山岩、闪长岩、花岗岩、方解石、凝灰岩、深板岩和滴水石块表面，你可以在那里发现它们。发光地衣很容易被破坏，但如果你想要采集一些发光地衣，那么你需要用一把剪刀轻轻地把它们从墙上剪下来。

If you want to farm the stuff, then you’ll need some bonemeal – when you use the bonemeal on the lichen, it’ll spread to one random adjacent block. The bonemeal dramatically accelerates the plant’s growth – under normal conditions, you won’t ever see bonemeal grow.
如果你想种植发光地衣，你会需要一些骨粉 —— 当你对发光地衣使用骨粉时，它会随机蔓延到一个相邻方块上。骨粉促进了植物生长 —— 可是在一般情况下，你永远不会看到骨粉自我增生的情景。

What can you do with it? Well, it gives off light – about the same amount as a redstone torch, an enchanting table, or a couple of candles. Use it to give a subtle underlighting to a modernist house design, or as a nightlight for when you need to grab a midnight snack. You can also compost it.
你能用它做什么呢？嗯 , 它能提供照明——亮度与红石火把、附魔台或者几支蜡烛大致相同。你可以用它在现代风格房屋的设计中作为微妙的灯光点缀，也可以充当在你吃夜宵时的一个小夜灯。当然你也可以把他们丢进堆肥桶里。



In the real world, a few types of insects and fungi can give off light – a phenomenon known as “bioluminescence”. Scientists have identified several reasons why this behavior might have evolved – from attraction and defense to communication and mimicry. In the case of fungi, it might be to attract insects which then spread spores.
现实世界里有几种昆虫和真菌会发光 —— 这一现象被成为“生物发光”。科学家们已经确定了一些它们会进化出来这种行为的原因 —— 从吸引与防御到交流与拟态。对于真菌来说，这个行为可能是为了吸引昆虫来传播孢子。

Glowy objects is also the theme of the latest seasonal adventure in Minecraft Dungeons – Luminous Night! In it, players explore the Tower at night, which is now covered with mysterious murals with glowing signs on them. Whether or not these signs are bioluminescent, we don’t know, but if you’re ever given the chance to inspect them yourself, do let us know!
会发光的物体也同样是《我的世界：地下城》最新赛季的主题夜光！现在，一些神秘的拥有着发光印记的壁画覆盖在高塔上，玩家们会在夜色中探索高塔。我们不知道这些发光印记是否出自生物发光之手，如果你有机会亲自去见证壁画发光之谜的话，请务必告诉我们你的见闻！

While there are plenty of bioluminescent insects and fungi, there are no known real-world bioluminescent lichens, making Minecraft’s example rather special. Best grab your shears, head down to your nearest cave, and gather as much as you can carry. Good luck!
据目前所知，尽管现实世界中有着拥有发光能力的昆虫和真菌，但仍未发现过会发光的地衣，所以在Minecraft中的地衣无比独特。你最好拿起你的剪刀前往最近的洞穴，然后把采集到的地衣塞满你的所有口袋。祝好运！
