"Every time I go out, it's a lot of trouble, I don't really want to go out at all. The handsome young man Tatamu complained to Lu Tao, but it made Lu Tao even more confused.

Lu Tao glanced at the slender strip of cloth that Tatam had put away, and finally asked, "Why do you want to wrap yourself up?"

Tatam was stunned for a moment, and his voice suddenly became excited again: "Sure enough, the legend is right, the people who come from outside are different from the people here here, and they are not afraid of the sun above their heads at all!"

On the perimeter of this tower, there are hardly any windows, only a few gaps slightly larger than fists, which are spread all around the tower, not so much windows as ventilation holes. The sunset that turned the grassland into gold could not shine through such a small gap, and could only let a faint afterglow illuminate the space in the tower by a tenth.

Now even that layer of afterglow has disappeared, the sun has finally completely set below the horizon, and just as Lu Tao opened his mouth to ask a question, the space inside the tower suddenly darkened.

"Finally it got dark and I felt much more comfortable. Ta Tamu took out a piece of things from his backpack, they were now on the second floor of this tower, before the sun completely set just now, Lu Tao looked at the things on the second floor in a blink of an eye. Different from the first floor at the bottom of the tower, there are more things in the second floor, tables and chairs, and two beds, although the bed is covered with hay, but if Du Tao is not mistaken, these hay and the soft grass outside are the same species, and it should not be a torture to lie on it at night to sleep.

Tatam placed his belongings on the table next to him, then unknowingly pulled out a bottle from his backpack that contained something, uncorked it, and dripped two drops of liquid onto the thing on the table.

The next moment, orange light bloomed from the things placed on the table, making the entire space on the second floor of the tower look warm.

Tata confiscated the bottle in his hand: "Didn't you just ask me why I wrapped those strips of cloth around my body? Because the sun outside can hurt our bodies and make our skin start to fester, so when we go out, we all have to wrap a layer of these strips of cloth to protect against those rays." Only the light emitted by this moss can not harm our skin, and it is also one of the plants that our underground people rely on for survival. ”

"Moss?"

"That's right, it's moss, you can touch it with your hands, it's very comfortable. Tatam reached out and touched the blanket-like plant on the table, with a look of enjoyment.

Lu Tao stretched out his hand and carefully approached the orange light that was escaping, and a warm feeling followed these rays all over the place

With Lu Tao's palm, there is no tyrannical feeling of the noon sun, there is more gentle and watery lightness, contact with those fluffy mosses, plus a little warm touch, it is indeed very comfortable.

Then Lu Tao had a new question: "Underground people?

"Yes, we do live underground. Tatam seemed reluctant to talk about these things, but waved his hand: "These things will be known tomorrow, anyway, I will definitely bring you back to our village, and finally meet a person from outside, the village chief will be very happy, and Nana, Nana will also be very, very happy." ”

Well, who is Nana? Do all the people underground live in the village? And what is the situation like underground?

Lu Tao felt that his problems were like a surging river, endless, and after thinking about it, he still gave up the idea of continuing to ask questions, and he would naturally know about these things tomorrow.

Leaving the topic aside, Tatam threw the backpack behind him on one of the beds and asked, "Lu Tao, you must be hungry, I can give you half of my own food, but you have to tell me about the outside in exchange, how about it?"

Lu Tao frowned, it wasn't that he didn't want to tell the young man in front of him about the outside things, he only had one question, which outside thing did he tell this young man? Is it the Great Qin Empire outside? Or is Lu Tao really from the local land of Kyushu?

......

When the morning sun of the next day made the second floor of the tower transparent again, Lu Tao was woken up by the tower tree.

When he opened his eyes in a daze, Tatam had reverted to the same form he had had seen yesterday, wrapped in a thin strip of white cloth wrapped around it in the shape of a mummy.

"It's time for us to go, and while the sun is not very strong in the morning, we can still travel a little more, we can't make it at noon, and if we leave early, maybe we will reach our village in the evening." ”

Tatam's voice was wrapped behind the strip of cloth, looking a little dull, Lu Tao nodded and sat up from the soft bed.

Yesterday he spent a lot of time telling Tatam about the things outside, and in the end Lu Tao still chose something he was familiar with, and told Tatam about the life of the land of Kyushu, those cars, planes and ships, will Tatam's three views be impacted, otherwise he doesn't know, at least when Tatam listened to him tell about these things, his expression was serious and sacred, and a pair of eyes looked at Lu Tao brightly, so that Lu Tao didn't dare to look at him.

It's just that the food exchanged for these stories makes Lu Tao not know what to start with

Where to start, those dried all kinds of proteins, but the shape is a strange-shaped insect, bitten in the mouth by Tatam, making a "click" sound, those dry skin, so that Tatam eats but intoxicated, it seems to be a supreme delicacy. Lu Tao took the dried insects in his hand, feeling the goosebump-inducing smoothness on the skin, but finally didn't muster up enough courage to put them in his mouth, even though the dried insects might be really delicious.

Lu Tao finally picked out a thing that looked like jerky from these things, and they told him that it was a worm called "sickle worm", which was made of dried meat after the meat on the leg was dried.

In the end, Lu Tao just ate some rice balls that looked like they were made of plants, most of them were grassy, which was enough for Lu Tao to relieve his hunger a little, of course, after a night's sleep, Lu Tao woke up and felt even hungrier.

After cleaning up a little, Lu Tao followed Tatam and walked out.

"When the sun goes down, something terrible will appear, and when we are outside, we have to hide in higher places. ”

This is what Tatam explained to Lu Tao yesterday, but Lu Tao patronized Tatam last night to tell Tatam a story or listen to Tatam say something, and he didn't notice whether there was something terrible outside at all.

At least he slept soundly all night, and he didn't hear any strange sounds, nor did he see any strange phenomena, although Tatam had instructed him not to go down to the first floor anyway, Lu Tao still slept until the next morning, and he didn't even feel Tatam's movement of wrapping cloth strips.

Out of this tower, there is still a grassland as far as the eye can see, and there is soft grass at your feet, in fact, such a long walk is very tiring.

Tatam chose a direction and carried a small bag that he regarded as a treasure: "Let's go, there is no danger on the grassland during the day, but you must follow me, maybe there will be hollowed out under your feet, and those are impossible to prevent." Also, when you are on the road, try not to talk too much, as that will consume excess energy. ”

Lu Tao was a little puzzled, what extra physical strength would it take to say a word, when he walked on the grassland yesterday, he naturally wouldn't talk to himself, so he asked: "How much physical energy does it take to speak?"

"Don't you notice that it's so quiet because of the grass, and they absorb the energy of all the creatures that make sounds, so let's go. ”

Saying that, Tatamu didn't wait for Lu Tao to say anything more, and began to walk forward, Lu Tao hurriedly followed, he was becoming more and more curious about this world. 2k reading web
