Chapter 230: A Brief Peace
Sakurama, who had been sleeping all day, slowly opened her eyes, and it was completely dark, and there was a rare fire light around her.
The brain was blank, probably after sleeping for too long, and after about a few minutes, the memories of the day gradually returned to the brain, and there was a pain in the abdomen, and the body was weak, but the spirit was very full.
"Sister, do you want to eat?"
"That's the kind of thing again......" Sakurama glanced at the firelight not far away and asked softly, "What time is it?"
Yang Xiaokai took out his mobile phone and shook it in front of Sakura: "Eleven o'clock in the evening." ”
"Lighting a fire will attract monsters. ”
"It doesn't matter, Sister Saki said that because of the sun-level infestation, there are no creatures in this vicinity, and it will be at least three days before animals dare to set foot here. ”
Sakuruma silently looked at Yang Xiaokai's side face under the firelight, and endured it for a long time before holding back her tears.
"Kai, I just had a dream. ”
"What dream?" Yang Xiaokai leaned against the tree, holding Sakura's right hand all the time.
"I dreamed that none of this had happened, I dreamed that I had never been to Japan, I dreamed of myself decades later, and I thought it was in heaven, but it didn't seem like I was going to go there so early. Sakurama laughed self-deprecatingly.
"I won't let you go before me, there is only one person I Yang Xiaokai risked my life to protect, I won't let her die easily, even if it's a deal with the devil, I will pull that person back, because that's my job." ”
Sakurama was powerless to refute, so she had to respond with a smile.
"Sister, if you can go back, the salary this time may be a little higher than before, this kind of request shouldn't be too much, right?" Yang Xiaokai has always admired money, but those nihilistic things are useless here, in order to return to that world to realize his wishes, he must let himself and Sakuruma live.
"I'm hungry. ”
Yang Xiaokai reached for the fire and picked up the iron box on it with a twig, and in it was a roasted piece of sizzling meat, which looked much better than the snake meat in the morning.
"Guess what this is?"
"Don't guess, it's definitely not a good thing, ah~" Sakurama immediately opened her mouth, no matter what it was, she had to eat it, she felt that her physical strength was violently consumed, and if she didn't replenish her energy, she would only turn back and die.
"These things were desperately exchanged by Saki Sasa and Ibaraki, and thanks to them, the dietary problems of all of us were solved, and this meat was enough for us to eat for half a month. Yang Xiaokai tore off a piece of meat and put it in Sakura's mouth, she also chewed it with relish, with a look of enjoyment on her face, "How is it? It's delicious, right?"
"It's tough...... And it seems to have a bit of a burnt taste. ”
"Huh?" Yang Xiaokai found that the piece of meat in his hand had become a little charred because it had been baked for too long, "I thought you had slept for a day and should wake up soon, so I have been waiting for you, but I didn't expect it to be burnt." ”
"Is it a vigil today?"
"Well, I took over Mr. Jinuchi's class, this kind of safe place is not so easy to find, a rare opportunity, to experience a peaceful night. Yang Xiaokai grabbed a few pieces of firewood and threw them into the fire, and the flames rose again.
The two were silent for a while, and Sakuruma seemed to feel that the wound was not so painful, so she sat up with difficulty.
"Kai, the black knife at that time...... What is it?"
Yang Xiaokai's heart trembled, he thought that Sakuruma had passed out at that time, but he didn't expect her to still see that thing, and in desperation, he had to explain truthfully: "You saw it...... There's no way, Sister Saki said that it was Obsidian's weapon system, and God made it easier for us to survive in this world before it was set into Obsidian. ”
"Wouldn't that be great? If everybody had a weapon like that......"
"Not really. ”
"Kai?"
"It's nothing, it's just that when I tried to summon that knife again in the afternoon according to Saki Sasa-san's method, I couldn't use it, and I don't know if I can only use it once. Yang Xiaokai didn't tell Sakuruma about what happened in the power room, anyone can say this, but she can't.
"That's right. Sakurama took a deep breath, "But that's good." ”
"What?"
"I envy you to have your own obsidian. ”
"What is there to envy about such a thing. "Ever since obsidian grew out of their skin, everyone felt that something was wrong with their bodies, and gradually separated themselves from humans, and as long as obsidian was there, they couldn't turn back into their former humans.
"I want to help too, and if there's obsidian, maybe I can help everyone if I can just look at the map. ”
Yang Xiaokai looked at Sakurama incredulously, her kindness was beyond her imagination, and when people were afraid to face her current self because of their conceit, she was the only one who did not derive such thoughts.
"I forgot that you don't like to be protected by others, but ah, it's better to stop here, sister, this world is beyond the scope of your cognition, and it's better to rely on the people around you a little at this time. ”
"Kai, don't talk to me in your mother's tone. ”
"Good, good. It's already twelve o'clock, so let's sleep until dawn, and it's safe around here anyway. Yang Xiaokai yawned, he had been taking care of Sakuruma in a coma, he was already exhausted, and he couldn't go tomorrow if he didn't rest well.
"Well, good night. ”
The next morning, the smoke from the embers of the fire slowly drifted into the woods, and when it met the sunlight, it disappeared, and people had not slept so soundly for a long time that they even forgot that they were still in another world.
People were hurrying to pack their bags and eat breakfast, and the route had been planned and could not be delayed any longer.
In order not to delay the march of the team, Sakuruma took the initiative to walk at the end, but in order to take care of her injuries, the team had to stop every hour to rest for a few minutes, although Hanajima objected, but couldn't bear the one-sided inclination of people's hearts, so she had to walk dumbly at the front of the line.
"Boss, we're going to delay a little bit more if we continue like this. Ranch had had enough of this stop-and-go method of wasting time, and asked with red eyes, "Do you think we should find a chance to kill her?"
"If you kill her, Yang Xiaokai won't stop, did you see that thing yesterday? He killed a monster that humans can't kill at all, this kid is not simple, don't make trouble, don't ruin my plan for a girl." Hanashima lit a cigarette with a lighter, sat on a stone and looked ahead, "There are so few cigarettes in this world, oh?
Seeing Lan Qi coming back, Fujiwara immediately couldn't wait to ask, "How is it, what did the boss say?"
Lanch shook his head and sighed, "The boss doesn't agree. ”
"Why?"
"Anyway, the boss doesn't agree, we can't do anything to them, bear with them for a while, the girl will be able to travel normally after her injuries are healed. Lanchi looked around Fujiwara, F wasn't here, he seemed to be getting more and more out of the group lately, "Hey, where did that guy F go again?"
"Cut, who knows, let him go, although he is from the same organization, but I am still looking forward to his name appearing in my mission. Fujiwara stomped his feet, straightened his clothes, and walked briskly forward, "Idiot, it's time to go." ”
"Hey, who's a nerd!"
The team in the rear, Samusa has been holding a palm-sized notebook since a few days ago, and no one has read the notebook, and even if they do, they may not be able to understand the content on it, only that she is indeed taking the first step in understanding the structure of the world, and no one among these forty people can do it except her.
"Smack. A pen with light ink was thrown from Sakisa's hand, this was already the sixth, and the notebook seemed to be written to the last few pages.
"Sakisa, stop for a moment, that kind of thing can't be figured out by guessing alone. "It's not the first time Hades has tried to stop her, and if it succeeds, the previous five pens won't be sacrificed.
"No, I've figured out the matter about obsidian, and the rest hasn't been confirmed yet. ”
"Sister Samusa, do you say anything about obsidian?" Yang Xiaokai immediately became interested when he heard obsidian, he was not interested in the structure of the other world or other things now, he just wanted to use the black sword again as soon as possible.
"Obsidian allows humans to do the impossible by changing our brain waves, which looks like superpowers, but humans must have a stage of adaptation, and at the beginning they will involuntarily use those natural abilities, but after repeated use, they will gradually be able to master them like limbs. Samusa said as she flipped through her notebook, but paused when she flipped to a page with a ring and a black sword.
"It's just that this kind of thing hasn't been figured out yet?" Yang Xiaokai asked.
Sakisa nodded, she left a lot of blank space at the back of the page, and it seemed that even she couldn't solve it.
"Obsidian's weapon is made of a special substance, but I don't know what the prerequisites for using the weapon are, and many conjectures are not valid, and I can only have a little clue when the obsidian weapon appears again next time. Saki Saki closed the notebook, she probably wrote down everything on it these days, including the operation of the world, the types of creatures and the laws of habitat, and the natural abilities that obsidian gave to humans, this notebook is simply a survival strategy in another world!
"Now, what do you say will happen in this world now?" Xia Cheng suddenly asked in his spare time.
"Why do you suddenly ask such a question?" Yang Xiaokai was puzzled.
"Come to think of it, we came with that hotel building, and it was impossible for a building to disappear all at once without attracting attention, right? I mean, if anyone knew that we were missing, would they be studying the way to find the world?"
No one answered this kind of question at all, with the technology of that world, it was too difficult to find a parallel space, and this kind of breakthrough in the dimension would probably not be discovered until hundreds of years or even longer.
