Chapter 9: The Crater
"Stop fighting. Wu Ling walked in.
Wu Ling said to Hua Zixuan and Gasol: "I watched the kung fu of the two of you outside the door, you have brute strength, and your actual combat performance is very poor. ”
"Poor combat?" Gasol was not satisfied, "I'm a professional fighter, will I be poor in combat?"
Wu Ling sneered, "The Battle Servant Race is different from the boxing match, the boxing match wears boxing gloves, while the War Servant Race does not wear it, and the Battle Servant Race almost every game will kill people, so in the two competitions, the mentality of the contestants is different."
Boxing matches should focus on the number of times you hit each other, while the battle servant match is different, as long as both sides are still standing, the game will never end, no matter how badly the opponent abuses you, as long as you beat the opponent to death with one last blow, you win. ”
Hua Zixuan: "Dad, do you mean that in the Battle Servant Competition, you should pay attention to efficiency and pursue knocking down the opponent with the fewest moves?"
Wu Ling: "Yes, this is also the essence of traditional martial arts. In the battle between you and Wu Wei just now, most of the moves were redundant and would only be a waste of strength. ”
Gasol: "Dad, what's wrong with wasting your energy, anyway, I have the strength, if I don't move bricks today." ”
"I don't have the time to fight with you. Wu Ling turned around and walked outside the courtyard, "You all come with me!"
Wu Ling was in front, and Hua Zixuan, Gasol, and Wu Wei followed behind.
After leaving the city gate, he ran more than ten kilometers, rested for a while, and started running again.
Gasol panted and asked, "Daddy, don't tell me...... The next day's training is about to start again, and we haven't rested yet!"
Wu Wei glanced at Gasol disdainfully, "What, no?"
Gasol straightened his back, "Who said that!"
After running for a few more kilometers, I have already left the farmland area and reached the desert area.
At night, the oxygen-producing bacteria are like fireflies, emitting a little green fluorescence, like a green starry sky, which forms a waving with the black starry sky overhead.
Gasol walked to the ground and straightened his waist, "Hey, Zixuan, you lie down too, I feel like I'm floating in the sky now, it's cool!"
"Floating in the sky," Wu Wei pursed, "......Shh You're running too fast, and your brain is starved of oxygen, right?"
Hua Zixuan also lay down, there was not a trace of clouds in the sky above Mars, and the atmosphere was thin, so its starry sky was particularly bright and clear. When I turned my head and looked around me, I saw a green "starry sky", and I really felt like I was floating in space.
Under him were oxygen-generating bacteria and desert, soft, and Hua Zixuan only felt that the fatigue of the day had been reduced a lot.
Gasol: "Dad, thank you for taking us to such a nice place. ”
Wu Ling: "Hurry up, it's not here yet!"
The two of them got up and looked at each other, "What better place?"
The two of them were so excited that they forgot about their tiredness, and followed behind Wu Ling.
The front began to be cratered, and when viewed by the moonlight, it was a crater, and the crater was the most important thing on Mars.
Wu Ling: "This is a crater belt, there are hundreds of thousands of large and small craters, the larger ones are more than ten kilometers in diameter, and the smaller ones are a few meters or dozens of meters. ”
Wu Ling was in front, and the three of them followed.
On the edge of some craters with a diameter of several meters, there is a large stone with simple characters carved on the stone.
Hua Zixuan asked Wu Wei, "Sister Wei, what's going on with this stone tablet?"
Wu Wei: "These small craters are natural graves, and after a person dies, they are thrown directly into it, and then filled with soil, saving the effort of digging pits." As for those stone tablets, some people who are about to die, when they see the pit they like, they make a mark in advance, which is equivalent to building a grave on the earth. ”
Wu Wei pointed around and showed Hua Zixuan and the others, "You see those bulges one by one, they are actually the heads of the graves." ”
Hua Zixuan and Gasol were stunned, "Isn't this a mass grave?"
Gasol: "Daddy, let's not do anything about stealing dead people's things!"
Wu Ling: "Do you think I will take you to rob the tomb? I am not as lacking in virtue as you think." He walked slowly ahead, looking for it as he went.
After looking for a while, Wu Ling said, "It's time for my future home." ”
It is a small crater, and the stone tablet next to it is engraved with the word Wu Ling, which is the tomb he prepared for himself.
Wu Ling jumped into the crater, and said to the three people outside the pit: "Come in and lie down and watch, it's very comfortable." ”
The three of them hesitated, which tendon was wrong with this old man?
Wu Ling: "Come on, you're welcome, come on!"
Gasol waved his hand, "Aha, we're not welcome, it's just that this is your old man's future bachelor apartment, so we won't go in and bother." ”
Hua Zixuan: "That's right, Dad, it's so late, let's go home and sleep, we have to get up early tomorrow." Daddy, people, it's inevitable that you'll die, you want to open a little. ”
Wu Ling was a little angry, "I order you to come down!" Wu Wei ......
Wu Wei, who was behind Hua Zixuan and Gasol, pushed hard, pushed the two of them down the crater, and jumped down himself.
The crater, or Wu Ling's grave, is still quite spacious, and there is still room for the four people to lie down.
Gasol: "Hehe, Dad, your future home is not small, and you can find a two-room wife to live in." ”
Wu Ling: "Shut up!"
Wu Ling: "Lie flat and try to touch the sand underneath you. Close your eyes and experience. ”
Hua Zixuan did as Wu Ling said. I only feel warm underneath, which is not normal. After a while, I felt that warm current trickling into my body.
"It's so comfortable!" Gasol said unconsciously.
Hua Zixuan only felt that the fatigue of the day was draining. He had eaten a bowl of potato chips this afternoon, and was hungry now, but now his hunger suddenly disappeared.
When Hua Zixuan opened his eyes again, it was already dawn, he was called up by Wu Wei, and the night passed unknowingly?
Wu Wei woke up Hua Zixuan and went to call Gasol again.
Gasol rubbed his sleepy eyes, "Daddy is such a good person, he brought us to such a good place, and he is comfortable." ”
Hua Zixuan only felt that yesterday's fatigue was swept away, and he was full of fighting spirit.
Wu Ling was already waiting outside the pit, and said to Hua Zixuan and Gasol: "Hurry up, it's too late to go, and the salt bricks won't be your turn to move." ”
Hua Zixuan climbed out of the pit and seemed to be resurrected with full blood, and so did Gasol.
Although I didn't eat breakfast, I didn't feel hungry and was full of fighting spirit.
On the way, Hua Zixuan asked, "Dad, do all the craters here have this kind of miracle effect?"
Wu Ling shook her head, "No, it's only mine." ”
Wu Wei: "Dad, how did you find this pit?"
Wu Ling: "That's ...... so"
A year ago, Wu Ling suddenly coughed up blood and showed signs of chest tightness, he knew that this was a symptom of lung cancer, he knew that his life was short, and in despair, he also thought of finding a place to live after his death.
One night, he came to this crater belt, and he wanted to find a pit where he could lie down and watch the earth comfortably, and make it his future home.
Wu Ling saw the pit of the right size and went in to lie down, facing the earth, lying on his arm.
He tried a few pits, but he was not satisfied, which is also related to his mood, looking for a pit to bury after his death, his mood will definitely not be better.
He tried, and it was in one of the pits, and he felt comfortable, warm and relaxed when he lay down.
He spent the night there, and when he woke up the next day, he felt that the tightness in his chest had been reduced and his strength had increased a lot, and he knew that he had found a good place.
So he found a big stone, carved his name on it, and stood beside the crater, and it belonged to him.
Because the crater here is sufficient, the Martians have agreed that once the crater is marked, the rest of the people can no longer touch the crater.
