Chapter 1009: The Sea and the Earth

"Oh......," said Leo, "sprouted just after the Resuscitation Festival?" ”

"Isn't it warmer at sea?" I said, "Spring on the prairie has to wait." ”

Leo said, "Don't you see, there is no fallen leaves in the broad-leaved forest over there!" ”

When I looked at it, it was really ......

The broad-leaved trees on the southern side of the island have not yet lost their leaves.

"Actually, they don't lose their leaves until after the beginning of spring, but they grow within a month." Leo said.

I sighed a little: "I've been on the heterotopic plane lately, and I haven't felt much winter, but it snowed a little yesterday, but I didn't expect spring to come so soon." ”

"Okay, spring, summer, autumn and winter were originally just changes caused by the rotation of the planet, what kind of poetry and painting, spring planting, summer cultivation, autumn harvest and winter storage, are all perceptual cognition," Leo said, "If you want to write poetry, hurry up, I see that there is a small island on the other side of the shore, it is better to observe it in the past." ”

"Let's go," I said, "and it's a waste of time to sigh with you here." ”

After a morning of observation, I can see that the life of the tidewalkers is between farmers, fishermen, pirates and merchants, after all, they are elves, all the land that can be planted on the island has been planted, and the surrounding area has become a fishing ground, but they have not entered the swamp, they still have small boats, dealing with fishing boats and merchant ships on the human side, adhering to the principle of grabbing if you can, doing business if you can't grab, and running away if the disparity in strength is too great.

Life is really so difficult for displaced people.

Still, I didn't find their hard cards, and I was a little disappointed.

Just when Leo and I were about to give up, Leo suddenly shouted: "Lift your shoes and find your shoes!" So it's that simple! ”

I was a little stunned: "What's the situation?" ”

Leo said angrily and with a smile: "We searched for a long time, but we didn't realize that there was something wrong with their ship?" ”

I looked at the seemingly humble boats of the Tidewalkers, but they had inherited the artistic beauty of the elven handicrafts, and said, "I don't see ......."

Leo laughed: "You are used to seeing modern ships on the earth, of course you don't think there is any problem, think about it again, the water element plane ......"

I remembered the seasickness on that sailboat, and I was a little embarrassed, but I thought about it and said, "These boats, slimmer, more streamlined?" ”

"It's just scratching the surface!" Leo said, "It's all about speed! ”

"Speed?" I looked at the boats rowed by the tide walkers, the big ones could accommodate dozens of people, and the small ones were simple canoes, and I really didn't see the difference, so I had to say, "It's very ordinary......

"By the way, last time it was a Tyrannosaurus rex blast, so you didn't feel it!" Leo could only reveal the answer, "Their speed is indeed much faster, and besides, there is one thing you didn't notice!" ”

"Let's get straight to the point." I had to admit that I wasn't observant.

"Sail!" "Their sails work really well with airflow, and they actually have a tin sheet in the planks!" ”

"You're saying that their shipbuilding skills surpass those of humans and elves?" I was stunned.

"Of course!" Leo said, "And what did you just see?" There's a guy working on propellers! Even a rudimentary manual propeller is a huge breakthrough! ”

I said, "I see, the pressures of life have prompted them to speed up the pace of invention and improvement." ”

Leo said: "It's a pity that there are fewer of them, and the guys on land are not enterprising, so the navigation of your world has not developed. ”

"Okay," I said, "mission accomplished, what are you going to do?" ”

Leo said: "There is no need to arrange, just stare slowly, anyway, there is no need to build ships in the inland for the time being, and the existing theories and technologies on the earth alone are enough." ”

"Did you run for nothing?" I say.

"It's just a distraction." Leo said, "Are you going back?" ”

I said, "Well, go underwater and see, didn't Maderudin say that the land is like a big mushroom." ”

"You don't have a phobia of the deep sea, do you?" Leo asked.

I said, "Even if there were, it would have been cured in the soul space a long time ago." ”

"So, take a look?" Leo said.

I had nothing to say when a thug plunged into the sea.

Of course, I used the water escape, and I didn't make any splashes.

After diving less than a hundred meters from the mouth of the swamp, the light in the water was already dark to the point of pitch black, and I turned on the elemental vision, but I still couldn't see too far, and the telekinetic sense was also compressed greatly.

After more than 200 meters, I reached the bottom of the sea, and then, I followed the rock formation of the seabed for dozens of kilometers to the south, and the rocks on the bottom of the sea also descended along a relatively gentle slope to a depth of more than 600 meters, and then I reached an endless cliff.

To be precise, it's like the edge of a mushroom's canopy.

I followed the edge of the "umbrella cover", dived to the "umbrella", and swam north for more than 20 kilometers before I encountered the vertical stone wall again.

Along the stone wall, I dived thirteen kilometers in one go.

Compared to lava, the sea feels the other extreme—cold and dark.

Of course, there was a little light in the darkness, from the creatures that lived at the bottom of the sea.

Leo was about to sigh, and I followed suit: "Mariana Trench!" ”

Leo said, "Do you remember? ”

I said, "Of course I remember the highest mountain on earth, the deepest trench, but if you want to say second or third, I really don't remember." ”

"Interesting...... "The whole land is a big mushroom, no wonder there is only such a continent, but we don't know the topography and situation of the seabed, and if there are similar small mushrooms sinking under the surface, it means that if the sea level drops, there will be new land on the surface." ”

"That's a catastrophe of natural disaster." I say.

"I really want to start the plot of the ocean part now, but forget about it," Leo said, "It's not good to have a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, let's get the plane done first." ”

"This is going back?" I say.

"So you're going?" Leo said, "Let's light the battle between the Kraken and the Merfolk before we go." ”

I thought about it for a while, the matter of the farm, Santas, and the Otherworld, including my own cultivation, had not made significant progress, and it was not appropriate to go and provoke two sea gods who were different from the gods in the sky, so I gave up the idea of exploring the bottom of the sea.

This time, I went straight into the stone wall, opened the earth escape, and returned to the island of the Tidewalker.

On this trip, I didn't encounter Krakens or merfolk, probably because they didn't have a gathering point nearby, but I saw a group of fish-man slaves grazing less than a hundred kilometers from the Tidewalker Island.

I've seen too many orcs grazing on the grassland, but I've seen it for the first time in the sea.

The fish-people are quite agile in the water, and may even surpass the leopard people on the grassland at critical moments, and they are not as clumsy as in the swamp, and their grazing methods are not like those on the grassland - when the fish-people let go of their hands and feet to swim, they are like the leaders of cattle, sheep and horses, and take the fish to places with abundant water and grass, and in the whole process, they are not herders, but guides, and the fish are not their livestock, but their subordinates......

This peculiar scene made me stop and watch for a while, but no matter how novel it was, I also knew that this was just a production method formed by the marine race in a long history, a summary of experience, and the lack of scientific theoretical support could only be regarded as their cultural characteristics.

Thinking so, I didn't discuss it with Leo, after all, if he spoke, it would be a long argument.

Finally, while a tidewalker shipwright who studied shipbuilding was sleeping, I pinched a small boat with iron sheets, let it float on the surface of the barrel beside him, and quietly left.

"There's a joke ......on Earth," Leo said, "that someone invented a time machine, traveled back in time, quietly put a copy of gravity on Newton's desk, put a diagram of a steam engine next to Watt, and quietly delivered a manuscript of the theory of relativity to Einstein." ”

"That's the paradox of time and space that is also infinitely looping, they took the original manuscript and inspired the original author, so who is the author of the original manuscript?" I was a little relieved, "At least we're not a space-time paradox, and if this boatman isn't in his right mind, or if his ideas are opposed by his peers, do we need to re-inflame them?" ”

"Send the Buddha to the West!" Leo said, "Let Jixiang take the time to look at it, I don't believe that this can't be invented!" ”

"You don't call it a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, you call it casting a net everywhere." I laughed.

"It's not all for our cause...... Leo said, "by the way, you should take a look under the swamp, right?" ”

"Okay!" I was in a good mood and dived headlong under the swamp.

The last explosion almost destroyed the underground waterways leading to the inland from the estuary, but those waterways were not all blocked, only the larger ones were blocked, and small passages still existed, but it was unlikely that the marine race would want to enter it in a big way.

Diving all the way down the swamp, I can see that the rock formations deep underground in this area are not particularly tight, just like there are slender and fluffy cracks under the mushroom umbrella cover, no wonder the sea water is easy to pour back hundreds of years ago, forming a swamp.

After figuring out the shape of the underground rock formations in the swamp, Leo also felt that the information he had collected this time was enough to analyze for a while, so he prepared to go back.

I didn't go through Santas and went straight back to the farm.

Although I used a scroll, at least it didn't give Santas insiders any suspicion of my activities in the swamp.

Back at the farm, Nishipiyu said, "The glitter fish has been delivered." ”
