22. Dongtian spring water
San Francisco Chinatown, the largest Chinatown in the western United States.
Coming here is like returning to China, a bustling medium-sized city.
Lena took him to a rather remote Chinese restaurant with only three shops.
"I've been here and it's delicious." Lena was ordering food when her phone rang suddenly, "Mom? ”
"Lena, where are you?"
"With Wei Wei'an." Lena said without blinking.
"Weird, she's looking for you."
"Oh, how is that possible, we're practicing surfing at the beach for next month's collegiate surfing competition."
"Okay, you've got through."
Lena rolled her eyes and hung up.
Chen Mo ordered the meal and looked back, "Your mother?" ”
"Hmm. I lied, saying I was with Vivien. ”
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Do you like Chinese food?" ”
"I don't like it, it's too greasy. I don't like to exercise much, and I tend to gain weight by eating greasy things. Occasionally, when you're hungry, you will try it. ”
"Well, that means you like the taste of Chinese food and resist it."
"Well, that's it."
After dinner, it was already dark. Chen Mo sent Lena home and returned to the mansion on the top of the mountain, where the gold bar was holding a peach and munching on it. Hearing the sound of the door opening, the gold bar was startled, and stood upright, quickly blocking the peach that he had stolen. The gold bar is too small, and this action is simply covering the ears and stealing the bell.
Chen Mo was in a good mood, touched the head of the gold bar, and glanced at the open refrigerator: "Remember to close the door when you take something in the refrigerator." ”
"Squeak." The gold bar nodded, slowly moved away, and continued to eat its peaches.
The little thing was so weird that Chen Mo was extremely suspicious that this golden chipmunk was inhabited by a human soul.
Chen Mo went back upstairs, took a shower, and was about to go to bed when the phone rang.
"Boss, have you slept?" The third child called and asked.
"Not yet. Can I help you? ”
"Are you free tomorrow? Come and give us a ride. My fourth child and I decided to buy a car, and it was impossible to move an inch without a car here. ”
"Free."
This night, Chen Mo slept very soundly, and he had a rare spring dream.
He dreamed of a blonde beauty with a golden sand. There were only two of them on the beach, and the two of them walked, and she showed a pair of slender and beautiful legs. Then, for some reason, the thunder stirred up the earth's fire, and hugged lingering on the beach, and when he was done, his hand was still extremely obscene on the secret golden curly hair. Suddenly, he saw the girl's face clearly, and Lena ......
Belch!
This dream is too evil. The dream gradually blurred, but the touch on the hand became clearer and clearer, but it was not curly, the hair was very silky and smooth.
"Squeak."
"Squeak ......"
In a daze, Chen Mo heard the call of gold bars.
Chen Mo opened his eyes suddenly, the sky was bright, and the gold bar was lying on the side of the pillow, squinting beautifully, enjoying his touch. That expression, I'm going to interject it......
"Ah,."
Chen Mo broke out in a cold sweat and fell asleep. Picked up the gold bar and threw it out at once. Thinking about last night's spring dream, Chen Mo shivered in disgust.
The little eyes of the gold bars were confused, and he jumped up from the ground, his eyes looked at Chen Mo motionlessly, and he didn't understand why he was still as gentle as water just now, and his face changed suddenly.
Chen Mo rubbed his cheeks and let out a long breath, and the pillar of optimus in the nest made him sigh.
o()o Alas, I've been single for too long and can't afford to hurt.
Chen Mo jumped out of bed, pedaled downstairs, ran to the back garden and planted himself in the pool.
After swimming twice in the pool, Chen Mo brought a bucket of water out of the cave space, and was about to water the small peach tree he transplanted, when the gold bars suddenly rushed out, and he fell into the bucket like crazy, opening his mouth wide and swallowing the water inside. When Chen Mo reacted and pulled it out of the bucket, the belly of the gold bar, which was originally bulging, was now more like it was inflated, and the drum was round.
"I'll ......," Chen Mo shouted.
The gold bar was held in Chen Mo's hand, with a look of enjoyment, his small eyes were full of happiness, and Chen Mo's eyes were facing each other, and they were also full of 'love'.
"Squeak. '
He had always felt that the most essential part of the Cave Heaven World was the Cave Spring Water. However, he did not know what was so special about these springs. The gold bar was full of belly and swollen, but he was not uncomfortable to look at him, but enjoyed it very much.
Chen Mo was in no mood to water the tree, and when he put the gold bar on the ground, he saw that its belly had disappeared little by little.
"This ......"
In just a minute, most of the belly, which had risen like a ball, was gone, and he had the strength to get up from the ground and stare at the bucket with a longing expression.
Chen Mo followed the eyes of the gold bar, and stared at the bucket without blinking.
"It's weird, I filled a bucket full of water. It had only been a few minutes, and the depth of a finger was missing from the bucket. Observing this, Chen Mo looked back at the gold bar again, and the belly of the little thing had returned to normal.
"Squeak." It stared at the bucket, its four little paws moving involuntarily, and then a leap fell into the bucket and drank its belly into a bulge.
This was repeated repeatedly, almost an hour, and the gold bar drank the water five times, and the more he drank, the more energetic he became. And in just an hour, except for the water drunk by the gold bars, the water in the bucket has dried up and evaporated.
"What's going on? If it is normal water, even if it is put in a pot for an hour, it may not be able to boil dry. Chen Mo was puzzled and watered the peach tree and the old vine.
Back in the house, Chen Mo had a vague feeling in his heart. The Dongtian spring water should be the source of life in this small world, it is not an ordinary spring, it should be formed by the liquefaction of a gas, because the water here cannot quench thirst.
Chen Mo had already drunk the water in it, but he didn't particularly care about it, and his feelings were not clear.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo fetched another bucket of water and came out. The gold bars seemed to smell the smell and ran into the house, and stood on the ground with their little legs and their eyes motionless.
Chen Mo poured a bowl for it, and he no longer hesitated, and drank it vigorously.
It's cool and cool, with a hint of grass. But when it reaches the belly, this coolness immediately turns into a cold flame that spreads in the stomach.
It's like a flame. The spring water releases a lot of energy that passes through the capillaries of the stomach and into the limbs. In an instant, Chen Mo felt as if the cells in his body had come to life, and his entire body conveyed a state of excitement, like a thirsty desert traveler seeing an oasis spring. But he wasn't thirsty.
Chen Mo's eyes lit up, and he could clearly feel the cold breath stirring in his body, this breath should be a kind of energy. After a long time, the scattered energy was absorbed by the cells of the body, and Chen Mo filled his belly again.
This time, the perception was clearer, the Dongtian Spring Water vaporized into energy in the body, and the body cells frantically devoured this energy. He even 'saw' the cells devour the energy and then divide into new cells, which are more energetic and contain more powerful energy.
Cells are being replaced, and the original cells are engulfed or excreted from the body by new cells. In Western medicine, this is metabolism, the exchange of matter and energy between the body and the external environment, and the process of self-renewal of matter and energy in living organisms.
Although Chen Mo has no culture, he also knows that Xie Chen's metabolism does not mean that the faster the better.
The metabolism time of normal human skin is four to six months, the metabolism time of liver cells is more than one year, the metabolism time of muscle is two to three years, the metabolism time of tibia is three to five years, and the metabolism time of bones is more than seven years. That's where the phrase 'seven years ago, seven years later, you are no longer the same you'.
But with the help of life energy, the cells that are reborn are more energetic and store more energy. Chen Mo faintly felt that his body had undergone an essential change, which was a transformation of the life level, and he was evolving to a higher level of life.
The process is addictive and obsessive.
Drinking water, waiting for it to be absorbed by the body, and so on, Chen Mo didn't know that he had drunk most buckets of water. Until all the cells in the body are renewed, they no longer send strong longing messages to the brain.
When he woke up, Chen Mo smelled a foul smell around him, and then he noticed a layer of black oil stains on his skin, and his stomach was also swollen. He hurriedly put down the bucket in his hand and looked at the gold bar next to him, which also turned black.
Chen Mo picked up the gold bar that was about to on the floor and almost ran to the bathroom.
