“……”
Scarlett was shocked a lot, and it took a long time to react, "Honey, is this a special function?" ”
"No......" Li Donglai shook his head, and then nodded again, "In Western terms, special functions are also fine." But I am more inclined to Ning Guofu, the pinnacle of refining qi and transforming gods, and the condensation of the mind and gods, is when human beings step into the forbidden area. I may be the only one who has this ability, or there may be many more. It's not clear what to say, you just need to know that the person who goes to you is not an ordinary person. ”
Scarlett rolled her eyes and asked a question she was concerned about, "Am I the first to know?" You just said that. ”
Li Donglai smiled, "If you are willing to listen to this, then ...... That's right, you're the first to know! ”
……
Flying, the oldest dream of mankind.
Since ancient times, human beings have always believed that the sky is inviolable and sacred, and the dream of soaring into the sky has always existed in the hearts of human beings.
On Mount Olympus, where the Greek gods lived, the site of Christ was located in the kingdom of heaven, which also signified a certain kind of human worship of the heavens. For example, the famous Cupid, a little god with wings who spreads love everywhere. The most famous flyers in Western mythology are Tedarus and his son Icarus.
The father and son were imprisoned in the labyrinth by the prince of Crete, and Tedarus knew that he could not escape by land and water, so he made wings that could fly, and the father and son flew away from the sky, but the son was too happy to fly higher and higher, and because he was too close to the sun, his wings melted, and he fell into the sea and died.
In the myths and stories of the "One Thousand and One Nights" in India, there are also references to the "magic carpet" that can fly, and even in the history of China, there are many legends similar to flying saucers, and Egypt also circulates a picture of a flying man with wings, which also repeatedly shows our people's awe and desire for flight.
From a man-made aircraft with no manned people. Kites, bamboo dragonflies, sky lanterns, man-made aerial vehicles, gliders, hot air balloons, and modern flight history. This process has been too long, even for us who live in modern times. When we encounter things, we often say, "Oh my God! ”
But now in front of Scarlett is a "Oh my God! "The weirdest thing is that this guy is still pressed on himself.
It's no wonder that she made a fuss, but no one can be calm.
As Li Dong said, it is a forbidden area for humans.
"......" was speechless, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Do you want to try again?" Li Donglai said.
……
Cars drive at high speed on the streets of Los Angeles. In the driver's seat was Scarlett. Li Donglai opened the open top of the car, stood up from his seat, and opened his arms to greet the gentle evening breeze.
Street lights, street lights flashed one after another.
The street lights are lit from near and far, and gradually converge into a bright neon light road. On both sides are high-rise buildings with colorful neon lights. Bright window lamps illuminate thousands of homes.
Everyone has their own life, and the scenes of life seem to be playing in the city, with scenes of melodrama joys and sorrows, love, hatred, and hatred. Looking at such a scene of thousands of lights, sometimes you will feel like a speck of dust floating in the dark night, fluttering with the night wind, as if stored in transparent amber.
A golden river of vehicle lights, the windows of each house stretch out in all directions. Outline the bustling city.
"I always feel that it is too dangerous, we can find a safe place to test slowly?" Scarlett protested.
"It's okay, thanks to the movie, people will always think of ways to accept things like flying." Li Donglai disagreed, magic is a good explanation, and there have already been magicians who have done similar levitation performances.
"Of course, it can't last long, maybe every household in this neighborhood will have an extra telescope or mobile phone or something when they look out of their window!"
"Okay, so is that going to start? Be careful not to fly too high. "The car drove into the park. Scarlett took the DV and filmed it.
"Do you have to take a picture?" Li Donglai said, "This thing is not safe. ”
"Of course, you don't know how much of an impact this has on the average person. Even though I saw it with my own eyes, I still think you're doing magic. There has to be some evidence that my eyes are not deceiving me. ”
“…… All right. Try low-altitude levitation first. ”
Scarlett's camera shook for a while, and then she saw an unforgettable scene in her life.
The night breeze in the park seemed to suddenly converge, and strangely, they could not feel the slightest howling wind within the range of the car. Li Donglai, with his arms outstretched, suddenly hunted in his clothes. The endless "wind" gathered under his ribs, like a pair of wings, supporting his body, slowly detaching himself from the ground......
- He flew!
Scarlett's mouth opened in surprise, and she forgot about the camera, looking at the figure trying to maintain balance in the wind of the night sky.
"You, you, you're really flying?! OMG! ”
"Big baby, you said too much OMG today, can you calm down, we are the first pair of men and women to fly up. Want to be together? He reached out his hand below.
Scarlett couldn't close her mouth in surprise, but she still ran over excitedly.
"Hold my waist and don't move, okay?"
"God, I'm sure I'm not a fan of Superman, and it's not a picture from the movie. But I can fly now! Scarlett's face was full of excitement, "If it hadn't been for pushing you today, I wouldn't have been the first person to know this secret, would I?" Maybe it's Emma, maybe it's Yuna, but it won't be me. ”
Li Donglai pinched her plump buttocks and said with a smile: "You are looking for unhappiness for yourself, I will treat everyone equally." And that's the way it is, you're the first to know. ”
Scarlett immediately became happy, then let out an exclamation, feeling a sudden lightness under her feet, and the two of them flew off the ground.
Li Donglai's eyes became deep, and the "mind and spirit" gathered the flowing wind and held them up.
This is not the first time Li Donglai has experimented, and whoever discovers that he has such an ability can't suppress his curiosity not to use it. At the beginning, I could only use Shen Nian to control the water cup and the like, and I still had nosebleeds. But as he gradually practiced and adapted, he found that his nosebleeds were less. He has gradually been able to control this magical "divine thought".
He had been practicing secretly until his last Halloween night hack.
It's hard work for a person to cry and keep this secret, he has never shown it, and he feels very frightened.
He has a perfect career and life, and he doesn't want this sudden ability. I don't know what kind of changes I will bring to myself by using this ability frequently.
Until...... After the first flight.
He doesn't want to be Superman and save the world. This is the territory of the Americans, and it is not his turn to punish the evil and eliminate the evil. Even in China, he had no intention of doing so. He's a big guy and he's rich. There is no need to fight in all directions.
The process of flying for the first time can only be described as miserable.
He just barely managed to float himself.
Float high in the night sky and look down on the world below.
The city and the earth seem to have shrunk into your eyes, high-rise buildings, roads and bridges, cars like small boxes and people bustling on the streets. It's like a delicate dream.
It's like a patient with a fear of heights standing on the top of a hundred-story building and looking down, but there is still a void under his feet...... That kind of overlook is definitely different from the overlook that appears on the TV screen.
"God, God......"
Scarlett hugged her tightly and prayed, not daring to let go at all. Although she declares that she is not a fan of Superman. And she herself is an actor, but she also longed for the scene where Superman took his girlfriend to fly. But it turns out that the movies are all deceptive. All she had left was to be afraid, afraid of heights.
"Can you go down, I think that's enough."
Li Donglai smiled: "You didn't open your eyes at all, you are completely wasting this opportunity." Big baby, open your eyes and see, the world under your feet, how spectacular! ”
The city is huge, and if you are in it, you really feel like you are in a steel forest and you can't see the edge at a glance.
But fly in the sky. Naturally, the horizon is much broader.
In the bustling city on the edge of the sea, the light condenses in the center and radiates in all directions, until the edge of the city does the light diminish layer by layer. The most spectacular thing is the highway, and the car lights have become the brightest light display. It is connected into a line, and then multiple lines are intertwined and converged. The whole city is built into a large web of lights, and cars crawl slowly on the web. The people of the city also live in this big net.
This is a completely different world, different from taking an airplane looking down on the earth, different from watching movies and television from the higher cosmic space shining on the earth. This sense of magnificence is related to flying by oneself and stepping on the void to overlook life.
Sometimes I feel that people are so small in this world, but how great it is to build such a huge gathering place. The existence of human beings is really small compared to that vast land, but it is also such human beings who have left their traces in almost every part of the earth.
"I think I'm in love with it!"
Scarlett muttered, and at some point, she finally broke through herself and opened her eyes, but she still didn't dare to let go of her hand. I was stunned to look at the beautiful scenery under my feet, and I was a little dazed.
Li Donglai nodded sympathetically, "Standing in the air and looking at the busyness under your feet, it seems to be far away from the world." At this moment, you can throw away a qiē and fly with the wind...... It's fascinating. ”
It's just floating in the sky, and the higher it gets, the cooler it gets. Scarlett's body shook suddenly.
"Is it cold, then let's go down."
Li Dong looked around and suddenly found a good place to go.
The "Library Building", which is about 313 meters tall, is the tallest building in Los Angeles and was renamed the "Bank of America Building" in 2003. The sky doesn't seem to be noticeable, but once you land, you can see that the top floor of the building is wider than a football field.
Dozens of high-powered spotlights shoot straight beams of light into the city's night sky. Finally stepping on the ground again, Scarlett was still a little stunned, curiously walked in front of the huge spotlight, and walked around in front of the light. The heat dispelled the cold, Los Angeles was so familiar to her, but what happened tonight was so fresh.
"Hey, big baby, don't dangle on the sidelines. Maybe a helicopter will come and check it soon! ”
"Hehe......" Scarlett jumped away, but her face was still a little dazed, and she didn't know what was going on in her mind, "Thank you." ”
"What?"
"It was the most beautiful night!" (To be continued)
