Chapter 146: Vortex
Such a situation made Qin Xiu a little confused for a while, and he couldn't figure out the situation.
He sat down on the edge of the river, lowered his head and began to think about it, recalling everything that had happened since he came to this space, but the more he thought about it, the more questions he had:
How big is this space?
Did the system simulate the entire sea or was it just a part of it, and he kept spinning around in this part?
Why did the island revert to what it was before he first came to the island?
Why does everything restore the lotus bowl but not disappear?
Why did he follow the eight ......
A series of questions popped up in Qin Xiu's mind, prompting his eyebrows to keep moving closer to the center.
"Chirp-" Qin Xiu sat and thought for a long time, the eight behind him didn't have such good patience, he couldn't sit still after sitting for a while, and jumped directly into the river in front of him
The river is not wide but only a few meters, and the depth is only a few meters high, and as soon as the body enters, the river is blocked, and the flowing water is cut off halfway, and the flowing water begins to fill up on one side and dry up on the other, forming a stark contrast.
Its tentacles are still partially exposed on the shore and have not entered the water
As soon as he entered the water, Ba began to make a fuss, making a splash of water and splashing Qin Xiu, who was thinking on the side.
Qin Xiu didn't react in the slightest, and the water on his habitually stiff body was dried with Yuan Li, but the others were still immersed in their own thoughts
Seeing that he didn't attract Qin Xiu's attention, Ba was so angry that he threw water on him, but Qin Xiu's reaction was only to subconsciously dry the water with Yuan Li, and didn't pay attention to Ba, still immersed in his own thoughts Zheng
This time Ba was unhappy, and deliberately danced his tentacles, setting off a burst of water splashes, and making a loud noise.
However, Qin Xiu still didn't give it a look, just said seriously, "Eight, don't make trouble." ”
After Qin Xiu, after finishing this sentence, he picked up a stone on the Lin and began to draw on the sand, and kept muttering: "This island should be here, find two adjacent stones on it, and then ...... to the south."
He didn't believe it and couldn't figure it out, Qin Xiu thought in his heart, his mind was constantly stiffening, and the things he encountered along the way were put together into a line.
Ba, who was said "don't make trouble" by Qin Xiu, pouted and called out, becoming a little embarrassed, but he was not making a fuss, blocked in the river, occasionally waved his tentacles, felt that the stones under the river were uncomfortable, and one by one the tentacles reached into the bottom of the water, rolled up the stones under his body one by one and threw them ashore.
Qin Xiu didn't care about Australia's actions, he just thought it was fun, so he didn't pay attention to it, and took care of himself on the sand on the shore.
As time passed, Qin Xiu drew the last island he landed on, that is, the island where he is now located, on the ground and marked it with annotations.
After finishing this, Qin Xiu squatted on the ground and straightened his upper body, stroked his chin, looked at the map he had drawn, and kept calculating various assumptions in his mind.
In the end, he discarded all other assumptions, leaving only one plausible hypothesis, and then bent down to draw the hypothetical line map in the open space next to him.
Again, the hypothetical map he drew was a spherical shape, with the island at his feet as a point, starting out, passing various islands, and then returning to a neighboring island.
It wasn't that he hadn't considered that it was the storm that sent them back to a neighboring island, but combined with the strange phenomenon of this island and the urine nature of the system, Qin Xiu still denied this conjecture.
If this space is spherical, then even if there is no wind and rain, the two of them will return to the starting point, and the reason why such a storm is made, he guesses, is to cover up!
"Then my two months have been in vain?" Qin Xiu muttered to himself, two months have returned to the starting point, what is this?!
Qin Xiu felt very helpless and depressed in his heart, rubbed a handful of his hair that had grown a lot and said, "Maybe that ship is just a tool used by the system to mislead him...... There must be another way back to land, it depends on how to find this way!"
Here, Qin Xiu was still thinking about how Gai would return to the land, how strange and wonderful, and over there, Ba was still throwing stones without stopping.
Several tentacles quickly rolled up the stones and threw the stones, leaving only a trail of afterimages, and after a while, the stones under its body were thrown to the shore by it, although the stones under the body were gone, but the eight were playing energetically, and the body kept moving forward, constantly throwing stones and throwing stones, and after a while, a piece of stone under the water was emptied.
"Chirp !!" Hachi moved forward as it tossed, until it emptied a pile of stones again, looked at the strange patterns under the water, and the deep black whirlpool, it paused, stopped the movement of its hand, and its whole body seemed to be about to explode, and its tentacles waved wildly, and suddenly jumped up from the water.
There was a splash of water, and the splashed water fell back into the river like rain, and some of it landed on the shore.
Eight jumped out of the water, six tentacles bent and folded upwards to make the shape of coconut shells, and the remaining two "tentacles" ran towards Qin Xiu like humans walking.
Ao's strange appearance attracted Qin Xiu's attention, he looked at Ba who was hiding behind him with some confusion, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Eight didn't go back, just stretched out a tentacle and pointed to the river.
Qin Xiu followed its tentacles and looked at the river, the first thing he saw was the colorful stones piled up on the riverbank, looking at these as if they had just been fished out of the water, they were still dripping with water droplets, reflecting the light in the sunlight.
Then he stood up and looked into the river, where the true appearance of the water was revealed, and there was no silt at the bottom, but a smooth pile of stones, as if they had been made by hand.
Among them, there is a black whirlpool at the edge of the cleared underwater clearing, and the edge of the whirlpool has strange lines, and if you look closely, the whirlpool seems to be rotating clockwise, and it seems to be turning counterclockwise, and when you blink and look again, it seems to be not moving at all.
"This is ......" Qin Xiu got up and walked in with a solemn face, looking at this whirlpool, the expression on his face became very serious, and he said slowly, "This is ...... What is it? Could it be a clue back to the mainland?
All kinds of possible speculations appeared in Qin Xiu's mind, but he couldn't figure out what it was, and he looked at the place where this vortex existed, it seemed to be the place where he had found the earthy yellow stone last time.
Thinking of the earthy yellow stones, Qin Xiu took out the three stones from the space, one earthy yellow, one purple, and one green, the shapes of the three stones were very irregular, just looking very ordinary, if you ignore the color, it looks like stones that can be seen everywhere on the side of the road.
However, when he took out the three stones, the strange runes on the edge of the whirlpool in the river began to glow, and then the three stones in his hand also emitted purple light, yellow light, and green light respectively, one, two, three, one after another flew from Qin Xiu's hand into the air, dripping and turning.
The whirlpool beneath the river began to spin clockwise, and the colorful stones that had not been completely cleared from the whirlpool were turned aside, revealing a complete circle of whirlpools
Then a burst of suction came out of the whirlpool, and the water in the river, the stones that were set aside were all sucked into the whirlpool, the speed was very fast, just a blink of an eye, there was not a drop of water left in the long river, not a single stone was left, even the stones on the bank were sucked into the whirlpool and disappeared, only the three stones in mid-air were still dripping and turning, exuding a faint halo.
And in the next second, the black whirlpool has changed, the whirlpool slowly detached from the surface, erected in mid-air, the oval whirlpool, slowly turning, on the top of the whirlpool appeared three empty grooves, the three stones that dripping and rotating in mid-air turned into three rays of light when the three empty grooves appeared, rushed into the three empty grooves, and embedded in them.
After the three stones were inlaid on it, a powerful suction force suddenly erupted in the whirlpool, and the huge suction force rolled up a hurricane, and the surrounding trees and shrubs were torn off by this hurricane and sucked into the whirlpool, and Qin Xiu was in the strong suction, his robe was blown to a rattle, but his feet were firmly fixed in place with Yuan force, no matter how strong the suction was, he could not suck him in.
Qin Xiu had a feeling that this song whirlpool was the opportunity for him to return to the land, and he wanted to enter this song whirlpool, but Ba was obviously very unwilling, and firmly rooted his eight tentacles into the ground, dead or alive just not to enter the whirlpool, looking at Qin Xiu's eyes full of grievances.
This made Qin Xiu entangled, should he leave Eight here with Eight or bring it into the whirlpool together?
The sunset is gradually setting, which means that this night is coming, at the entrance of the delicious restaurant, a large group of people gathered, if Qin Xiu is here, he can see that most of these faces are known to him, and they are basically customers who usually come to the restaurant to eat.
At this time, this group of people who usually come to eat happily are all looking at the closed door of the store with sad faces, and it is accurate to look at the four big words "temporarily closed" hanging on the door.
"Why hasn't the door been opened yet, what is Boss Qin doing?"
"That's it, it's two! I haven't eaten any food in the store. ”
"I didn't eat the food made by Boss Qin, and my wife and I suffered a whole circle. ”
"Me too, the flesh on my face is gone!Boss Qin won't be out of business from now on, right?????"
"Don't scare me, since I ate the food made by Boss Qin, I always feel that it is not delicious when I eat the food made by others, if I can't eat Boss Qin's food after it closes, how can I live!"
"That's right, don't talk nonsense!"
"Don't crow's mouth!"
The group of people gathered at the door were talking to each other, looking at the closed door of the store with a bitter face.
Ai Ziyu in the crowd was even more wrinkled, his eyes were a little shallow and black, he looked at the door of the store without saying a word, touched his flat belly, the corners of his mouth were deflated, and he was about to cry when he looked at it!
As an extremely picky eater, as a person with extreme requirements for food, especially after eating the food cooked by Qin Xiu, pickiness has reached a certain level, and he really feels so painful if he doesn't eat the food that satisfies him!
"Boss Qin, can you leave your most loyal diner behind......" Ai Ziyu said coyly, with a hint of resentment in her voice.
Ai Zimo, who was following on the side, sighed in his heart, looking at Ai Ziyu's appearance, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
And at the corner of the alley, a blue figure looked at the closed door, and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly with a veil, but a trace of loss flashed in his exposed eyes, and he muttered softly: "Although we have only known each other for nearly two months, we can be regarded as friends, don't you say goodbye without saying goodbye......"
With this, she looked at the closed door again, turned around and walked into the alley, and at the moment he turned around, Ai Zimo, who was following Ai Ziyu, turned his head to look at the place where he was standing just now, saw the shadow of her leaving, and secretly prayed: I hope, Boss Qin, you will come back soon......
And at the corner of the alley on the other side of the store, a red figure came quietly, without attracting any attention, the person who came was wearing red soft armor, his indifferent face was a little pale, and his lips were a little chapped, these signs of weakness appeared on Mu Hualan's body but it would not give people a delicate feeling at all, her eyes were still very sharp, her back was straight, her standing posture was meticulous, and her momentum was compelling.
She was followed by the lazy night breeze, standing lazily, leaning against the wall as if she had no bones, wearing the uniform of the guards, the long sword was across the back of her neck, and her hands were loosely resting on both ends of the sword, looking at Mu Hualan and couldn't help but ask: "General, my subordinates don't understand." ”
Mu Hualan glanced at him lightly and didn't reply, but Ye Feng seemed to be really puzzled, and then asked, "Why did you make such a request to His Majesty the Emperor......?
"Night wind. Ye Feng's words were interrupted by Mu Hualan before he finished, "This is the best way to make a decision, and I trust Boss Qin's character." ”
Nightwind was silent, a hint of guilt and chagrin flashing in his eyes.
"Alright, let's go back. Mu Hualan saw the look in his eyes, sighed in her heart but didn't have anything, turned around and left first, even though the aura on her body was very chaotic, but her steps were still very firm, just like she gave Rao a feeling.
