Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Gray Sea
Because they have just mastered superpowers, Wei Liang and Ding Ding are in a good mood, this feeling is like taking a train for the first time, entering the steel dragon, watching the surrounding scenery speed; Or take a plane for the first time, be at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and see the thick clouds sitting at your feet.
The moment of wonder and wonder was intoxicating.
They tirelessly use their superpowers until they are exhausted, which is both an exploration and an exercise. After a long time, the novelty wore off, and they lay side by side on the grass, staring at the gray sky.
"Is it going to rain soon?" Tintin asked again, the thick clouds always disturbed her, because there was no room here, and if it really rained, wouldn't it be drenched in soup?
"As I said, those clouds are just decorations, and if it were going to rain, it would have already fallen, don't worry."
"Okay." Tintin asked, "It's getting dark, isn't it?" ā
"Who knows, maybe there is no day or night here at all."
"I'm a little sleepy anyway."
"You want to sleep?"
"It's a pity there are no beds."
"It's not like sleeping on the grass all the time." Wei Liang had an idea: "Maybe we can ask Ta Ling for help." ā
"Will Tarling help us?" In Tintin's impression, Taling is so mechanical and indifferent, and he is decisive in killing, and asking such a guy to help is nothing more than wishful thinking.
"As long as there are scarlet coins, it's easy to say." Wei Liang raised his head and said in a low voice, "Ta Ling, I need your help. ā
Tintin thinks he's stupid, can he come out like this? They are not our little housekeepers.
There was a brief silence, and an indifferent voice sounded: "What's the matter?" ā
"I need a place to live."
"One hundred Crimson Coins."
"Yes."
A small wooden house rises from the ground, simple and unpretentious, with a hint of antiquity.
Ding Ding was dumbfounded and said, "It really happened?" ā
"It's not as difficult as you think."
"Wei Liang, you are so powerful! How could Taling be so obedient? ā
"Don't be too afraid of it, maybe it's just a program. If we break the rules, it will be erased without mercy. But as long as it's within the rules, some things are negotiable, as long as you have enough Crimson Coins. ā
"Is Taling just a program?"
"I guess." Wei Liang smiled and said, "Let's come and see our hut." ā
The two pushed the door open and walked in. The wooden house looks small from the outside, but the space inside is huge, and it has all kinds of facilities, and in the words of the inside, it is called Sumeru mustard space.
Tintin lay on the soft queen bed, cheering, and in this lifeless place, there is nothing more uplifting than a warm home.
The two of them slept in it, and when they woke up, they didn't know what time it was, and when they opened the window, the sky was still so gray. In this unchanging place, it is easy to lose the sense of time, as if living in a basement, often unable to distinguish between day and night. But for them, time is no longer important, they don't need to go to work anyway, and there is nothing to do.
"Why don't we go out for a walk." Ding Ding Ti yƬ.
Wei Liang smiled: "You're not afraid of rain?" ā
"It's not fun to stay in the house. I've wanted to go to the savannah for a long time, but I haven't had the chance, and now I've got my wish. ā
"It's a pity that this is a barren grassland, there is no green, and there is no life."
"Do you think there is an end to this grassland?"
"Who knows."
"Let's try it, keep walking in one direction and come back when it's dark."
"But it's never dark here."
Ding Ding smiled: "Then we will never come back." ā
The two washed up, ate a little food, and started the journey.
Because of the strengthening, their overall physique has been greatly improved, and they are probably not weaker than professional athletes, and they are not tired after walking for a long time.
The scenery of the journey is very monotonous, only the endless dead grass, some places the grass is very low, and in some places the grass is very high, like reeds.
Wei Liang smiled: "What will be the consequences if you light a fire here?" ā
Ding Ding shrunk his neck and said, "We will both become roast suckling pigs." She was afraid that Wei Liang would do this, and admonished: "Don't do stupid things." ā
"Don't worry, my lighter has long been thrown away."
After walking for about five or six hours, they finally came to the end of the grassland.
Tintin looked ahead, his face full of shock.
Wei Liang was also amazed.
It is a gray sea, boundless and vast. It was so calm, smooth as a mirror, without a trace of waves, like an old man sleeping peacefully.
"Would you like to go for a swim?"
"What if the water is poisonous?" Ding Ding rattle generally shook his head and said cautiously: "Even if there is no poison, what if there is a sea monster in it?" For example, the octopus, a shark the size of a mountain, swallows us in one bite, and we are scared to think about it. ā
Wei Liang couldn't help but laugh, took a step forward, and his feet sank into the water.
Tintin was very worried and tugged at his sleeve: "Let's go back." ā
"Don't be afraid."
Ding Ding swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "How do you feel?" ā
"It's cool." Wei Liang stepped back and said, "You touch it." ā
Ding Ding was a little hesitant at first, but with Wei Liang's encouragement, he finally stretched out his hand, touched the dragonfly with water, and exclaimed, "It's really cold!" It's like ice water. ā
Wei Liang couldn't help but laugh and said, "You obviously didn't touch it." ā
Ding Ding's face was a little red, and he said, "Stop playing, it's not early, let's go back quickly." ā
"Okay."
The scenery here is the same, and there are no signings, it is easy to get lost, but the two of them are not worried about this problem, once they have a house, its coordinates will automatically appear in the field of vision, and Wei Liang only needs to follow the instructions.
After a long, long time, they finally returned home.
Time goes by, day after day, life is monotonous, nothing more than chatting, walking, eating, sleeping.
Ding Ding said: "Actually, it's quite boring. ā
Wei Liang said: "Calculate the time, the new game is about to start." ā
Ding Ding sighed, "I still prefer this boring life to death games." ā
"Be calm, what should come will always come, we can't hide."
Ding Ding stared at Wei Liang and asked a little sadly: "If I die one day, will you be sad?" ā
"Don't think about it."
"I'm not thinking about it, it's a very real problem. We almost died in the last game, and there will definitely be an even bigger crisis in the future. ā
Wei Liang rubbed her head, smiled and said, "You won't die, neither of us will die." We will make it to the pinnacle of the Crimson Tower alive. ā
