Chapter 260: Negative Yue
After separating from Shen Wanqiu, Liu Xiu took a small boat down the river and decided to explore the end of the Nutao River.
Lying on the boat, the blue sky and white clouds, the green mountains and green waters, the warm breeze is warm, not to mention how comfortable.
In this situation, Liu Xiu wanted to write a poem, but she couldn't hold back a word for a long time, so she had to give up.
Then he sneezed twice inexplicably......
"Something about me is about to happen or has happened, but it's not bad," he muttered, rubbing his nose.
The so-called autumn wind has not moved the cicada first, and the cultivation has reached Liu Xiu's level, some things about himself have their own sense in the dark, with his physique, it is impossible to get sick under normal circumstances, and something must have happened when he sneezes, although he doesn't know what it is, but Liu Xiu feels that it is not a bad thing, so he will not be entangled.
Of course, if Liu Xiu knew what his apprentice Li Changan had done, I am afraid that he would not be so calm, and it is estimated that he would go directly to Linjiang City to take Li Changan out and clean it up......
Although there are no others around, Liu Xiu still continues the next journey in a normal way, he thinks this is very interesting, and he can experience many things that cannot be experienced normally.
Liu Xiu spent the next half a month on a small boat, he didn't go ashore, when he was hungry, he got some fresh food from the Nutao River, and rested on the boat when he was sleepy.
Along the downstream, gradually, the Nutao River became wider and wider.
For half a month, Liu Xiu didn't know how far he had gone, and he also encountered a lot of boats on the river on the way, and he also saw different towns by the river.
The only thing worth mentioning is that on the eighth day of separation from Shen Wanqiu, Liu Xiu fell asleep on the boat, and the boat that followed the tide took him to almost accidentally enter the territory of Huxin Fort, one of the nine major forces in Jiannan Dao.
It was a huge lake located on the edge of the Nutao River, although Liu Xiu did not deliberately pay attention to the power of Huxin Fort, but he also knew that the lake where Huxin Fort was located was not less than a thousand miles long, and it could be called an inland freshwater sea.
In that huge lake, there are many islands of all sizes, and from a distance, the more central place is covered with clouds and mist even at noon, and ordinary people can easily get lost in it.
As the base camp of the nine major forces of Jiannan Dao, Huxin Fort, of course, it was heavily defended, and Liu Xiu, who was asleep, was stopped before he could really get close to other people's territory, and the other party didn't embarrass him, just let him leave.
Liu Xiu didn't have any interest in breaking into other people's territory, although he had the strength and confidence, but there was no need to trouble others for no reason, so he left so plainly.
After half a month, although Liu Xiu didn't know how far he had walked along the Nutao River, he was sure that he had definitely left the boundary of Jiannan Dao, because he found that the architectural style and people's living habits of the riverside towns he had seen in the past two days had changed a lot.
Although the days during this period of time were dull, with the change of the environment, Liu Xiu had a different kind of novel experience, seeing everything was fresh, of course, he just watched from a distance and did not participate in it.
Early this morning, as the morning sun rose, Liu Xiu woke up from his dream, and then he was entangled.
He dreamed last night, originally he rarely dreamed, but something indescribable happened in his dream last night, because the dream was too psychedelic, Liu Xiu couldn't remember who appeared in the dream, it seemed to be Xia Haitang, and it seemed to be Shen Wanqiu, and after thinking about it a little, he looked like Liu Qingqing, and finally he looked like Mo Ling......
"Tsk, the troubles of young people" In the morning breeze, he felt that his crotch was sticky, Liu Xiu was so entangled that he grabbed his hair, full of essence, this kind of thing was not under his control.
Fortunately, he took a change of clothes, observed that there was no one around, simply stripped naked and jumped into the water to take a shower, and then changed into clean and refreshing clothes.
He didn't throw away the 'dirty' clothes, in line with the principle of economy, he could still wear them after washing and drying, and then he squatted on the side of the boat to wash his clothes in the river water.
When washing clothes, Liu Xiu paused for a moment, thought of a situation he had seen on the Internet in his hometown, shook his head and smiled silently, and continued to wash clothes.
Anyway, he saw it on the Internet at the beginning, saying that in the summer, not many people go swimming in the water park, but some unmarried women found out that they were pregnant after they went back, and the key was that they didn't know who the child's father was......
"I don't know if what I saw at the beginning is true, I guess someone is spreading rumors, of course, it is really possible for such a bizarre thing to happen in that environment......"
recalled what he saw on the Internet at the beginning, Liu Xiu was happy, but at this time he had to face the reality.
Uncle, I'm going through adolescence again.
Because of the relationship between real age and experience, Liu Xiu, who cherishes himself very much, cannot solve it with his hands like many young people, so he can only reluctantly accept two or three troubles every month.
In fact, this trouble is not a trouble, as long as Liu Xiu finds a woman to live with, but he doesn't have such thoughts at the moment, it's not that he wants to be an ascetic, it's just that when he is still growing his body, it's not good to break his body too early, wait until this body is really an adult.
I have to go through it two or three times a month, and I don't know when it's a head, but when I think of it, Liu Xiu's head is a few laps bigger......
After washing the clothes and drying them on the boat, Liu Xiu lay down on the boat leisurely, and then his thoughts began to spread.
"When I was on earth, I was busy with my career and entertainment, and I didn't have the time and energy to think about starting a family, and now I'm relaxed, although it's still early, but I can consider it, forming a family, the future is full of children and grandchildren, this is a complete life, and I don't know what kind of girl can form a family with me in the future, she can not be too beautiful, but not too ugly, gentle and virtuous, but not too weak, it is best to have a little character, after all, if you are too weak, In the future, the fun of noisy and noisy between the two is gone, and you have to be diligent and thrifty, don't be the kind of lazy to do, it's a headache to think about, and don't be the kind of demon who helps my brother, otherwise I don't know how many moths to make trouble for me, although I have a little ability, I can't toss enough......"
Everyone has a variety of visions for their future, and Liu Xiu is no exception, although forming a family is still a bit far away for Liu Xiu, but this does not prevent him from thinking about it in advance, just to pass the time of boredom.
Regarding his future wife, Liu Xiu, who thought of this, also flashed the figures of several girls in his mind, but they were all just fleeting, and who could say clearly about the future.
When Mo Ling's figure flashed in his head, Liu Xiu only felt a pain in his brain, and he had no ideas, if he didn't solve Mo Ling's problem, it would be absolutely nonsense to want to start a family and live a stable life in the future.
Looking at his heart, to be honest, Liu Xiu doesn't mind taking Mo Ling as a friend, the kind of knife in both ribs, but he has never thought about the problem of combining with Mo Ling to form a family, no matter how beautiful and gentle Mo Ling is, Liu Xiu is not too much, and he has no special habits, just because Mo Ling is not a real human being, he broke off the idea of starting a family with her......
"I'm thinking about some nonsense, is it really boring? It's just a normal adolescent horse race, and I've thought about it so much, huh...... Could it be that they were affected by those two sneezes? ”
Shaking his head, Liu Xiu put aside his thoughts and didn't think about that, no one can say anything about the future, and it's useless to think about it now.
Line after line, the Nutao River seems to never end.
Time slipped away quietly, and unconsciously, after Liu Xiu and Shen Wanqiu separated, they had been floating on the Nutao River for two months, during this time he didn't have to take the initiative to join in the fun, he wanted to go to the end of the Nutao River, the days were boring and boring, but he could also endure loneliness.
From the departure to the present, a few months have passed, and it has been late autumn and close to winter, but Liu Xiu, who doesn't know where he is, found that the temperature has not decreased, not only has it not decreased, but it has become hotter and hotter, and even the vegetation on both sides of the Nutao River has quietly changed its appearance.
"This is coming to the tropics," stood and penetrated Liu Xiu and looked around.
How big is the world? Liu Xiu didn't know, and he didn't have a clear concept, even if he read so many books, he didn't have an exact description of the world.
But one thing is certain, this world is round, and it is also a planet, Liu Xiu once flew to the sky to see it, and there is an arc in the sky in the distance.
Touching his chin, Liu Xiu's mind moved, and he suddenly wanted to go on a trip around the world.
However, he quickly dispelled this idea, this world is too big, a trip around the world is not good time to calculate in years, and there are too many dangers, although he has some ability, but his current strength does not allow him to take such a trip, it is not suitable for now, it can only be said later.
When he was thinking about this, Liu Xiu's front suddenly opened up, and a vast and boundless sea suddenly appeared in his sight.
At the end of the Nutao River, after more than two months in him, he didn't know that he had finally arrived after walking tens of thousands of miles by boat!
"The resumption of hundreds of rivers finally reaches the sea, and the world is infinitely blue, which is worth the trip......"
Standing at the bow of the boat, blowing the oncoming sea breeze and smelling the salty smell in the air, Liu Xiu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
The mighty Angry River enters the sea, and in the distance, the endless sea rises above the horizon and forms a slight arc until the end of the line of sight.
In this situation, in the face of the vast ocean, Liu Xiu only felt that he was extremely small.
"When manpower is poor, and heaven and earth are endless, in the face of heaven and earth, we should have a sense of awe for a long time......"
Muttering to himself, he has come to the end of the Nutao River, and Liu Xiu, who has achieved his goal, actually has a feeling of emptiness in his heart, he still has a hope before, but now he doesn't know what to do.
"From the other side of the mountain, tens of thousands of miles away is the sea, and this direction is also the sea, but what about the other directions? Is the same true? But what is on the other side of the sea? And what? ”
The river is flowing, the boat is walking, and before you know it, Liu Xiu has entered the sea by boat, the waves are choppy, and the boat under his feet is also up and down, as if it will be swallowed by the waves at any time.
It's not that Liu Xiu has never seen the sea, but he has never seen such a big sea, there are too many horizons in the distance, it's like a big mountain!
Silent in the vastness of the sea for a moment, Liu Xiu suddenly looked up at the sky, and his mind was calm, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes at this time.
He was lucky enough to see the legendary mirage.
However, it was not this rare natural phenomenon that surprised him, but the image presented in the mirage.
In the picture, there is an island located in the middle of the vast sea, and the island is not very large, estimated to be only twenty miles wide, and the highest point is no more than a kilometer.
The forest on the island is verdant, flowing springs and waterfalls, there are cranes with wings spread for more than ten meters to take off in groups, beautiful pavilions and pavilions are hidden in the forest mountains on the island, the island is obviously inhabited, it is like the abode of immortals.
These did not make Liu Xiu's eyes widen in surprise, what surprised him was that in many places on the island, there were actually floating mountains in the void, were those floating mountains natural or man-made?
What surprised Liu Xiu the most was the island itself, it was not stationary, but moving in the sea, and if you looked closely, the island was actually carried by a huge old turtle!
Seeing the whole picture clearly, Liu Xiu couldn't help but gasp, the island exposed to the water was already so big, and how big was the old turtle carrying the island? It's a pity that the old turtle is hidden in the sea and can't see it really.
The mirage came abruptly, but it gradually dissipated after a few minutes, and Liu Xiu was a little unsatisfied.
"The scene presented by the mirage is real, and the refraction of light transmits the distant picture to ......"
His mind flickered, Liu Xiu had an urge to enter the vast ocean to find that island, he wanted to observe it up close, after all, it was too amazing for a terrifying old turtle to carry an island.
However, this is just an idea, Liu Xiu quickly restrained the impulse in his heart, the vast ocean is boundless, where to find it? Seeing the old turtle carrying the island, God knows how many terrifying crises there are in the boundless sea, and rushing to go is probably no different from looking for death!
Glancing at the sea in front of him with some aus, Liu Xiu's heart moved, and he controlled the boat under his feet to go to the shore, and then he would go to find the moving island when he had time and ability in the future.
Coming to the shore and stepping on the soft sand, Liu Xiu beckoned a coconut from a distance and drank coconut water, thinking about what to do next.
"I saw it at the end of the Nutao River, it can be regarded as letting go of a matter of heart, so much time has passed, it is time to return, and it will take time to go back, and then it will be just right to cat's winter, and the task given to Li Changan at that time should also have a result, I don't know what his situation is now......"
Although he had decided to return, Liu Xiu was not in a hurry to leave, but enjoyed the sunny beach, which is a pity, but the bikini was missing......
On the way back, Liu Xiu didn't plan to take the waterway, and drifted on the Nutao River for a few months, although he could endure loneliness, it was enough.
Since he decided to take the land route, Liu Xiu had to inquire what kind of boundary this was to plan the route, so his telekinesis radiated out and began to look for people, but although Liu Xiu's telekinesis could now radiate ten kilometers away, he didn't see half a figure for a while.
He was not in a hurry, and walked along the beach, looking for people while admiring the tropical scenery along the way.
After almost half an hour like this, at noon, I finally found someone, and there was more than one, 'seeing' those people, Liu Xiu was slightly stunned and hurried over.
"Sunshine Beach bikini, it's a good job......" Liu Xiu couldn't help muttering in his heart when he passed.
What he saw were several girls, all of whom were not very old, the oldest was no more than twenty years old, they were very little dressed, just a strip of cloth wrapped around their chests, and only a pair of small shorts on their lower bodies, no different from bikinis, and several girls were dressed the same, except for the clothes...... If it was also clothing, they still had a small pocket tied around their waists, but according to Liu Xiu's observation, those small pockets were empty, and they didn't know what they were for.
The girls were all in good shape, their skin was bronzed, not rough at all, but extremely delicate, like satin.
Seeing them, Liu Xiu couldn't help but think of a profession that few people knew about, pearl divers.
Pearl divers generally live by the sea, they need to dive to the bottom of the sea to collect pearls, the danger is very high, the mortality rate is very high, is a real life to earn money.
And this kind of profession is almost all unmarried girls are doing, there is a saying that married women and men are not pure, doing this kind of profession will anger the sea and bring bad luck, pearl divers because they work in the sea all year round, so they are in good shape, and the skin is delicate, after all, people who like to swim are not too bad in shape and skin.
Although it was just a guess, Liu Xiu estimated that those girls were pearl divers, and the pocket around her waist should be used to hold pearls, but it was obvious that they were not harvested now, after all, collecting pearls often depends on luck.
When he saw a few girls, Liu Xiu also found a small fishing village not far away, after all, he had to ask for directions, although a few girls were wearing less, but seeing that the people in the fishing village looked strange, Liu Xiu didn't shy away from anything, and walked over directly.
The fact is that Liu Xiu's guess is right, those girls are pearl divers, poor people who earn money with their lives, they have been busy for a long time without harvesting, and they all look a little depressed, and their faces are not full of youthful and energetic smiles.
Liu Xiu's appearance surprised several girls, after all, the fishing village they live in is relatively remote, and there are few strangers who usually come.
In the face of Liu Xiu, a stranger, they were secretly looking, especially after finding that Liu Xiu was walking straight towards them, they whispered.
Hearing their whispers, the corners of Liu Xiu's mouth twitched a little, because he couldn't understand what the other party said.
In fact, if you think about it, I don't know how far away it is from Jiannan Road, and I don't know how much stubble the dialect has changed, so it's strange to be able to understand it.
But with the mentality of just in case, Liu Xiu still asked: "A few girls, can you understand me?" I want to ask what kind of boundary this is."
It was obvious that the chicken and the duck had spoken, and several girls couldn't understand what Liu Xiu was saying, with a confused expression.
One of the eldest girls stood up, with vigilance in her eyes, gesturing at Liu Xiubi, and saying things that he couldn't understand.
Even guessing, Liu Xiu probably understood what she meant, to the effect that Liu Xiu should go to the village, where there might be someone who could communicate with him normally, so he smiled and nodded.
The other party also knew that Liu Xiu understood what she meant, and then led the way to the fishing village in front.
A few girls walked in front, turning around from time to time to look at Liu Xiu curiously, whispering, and sometimes making some laughs, some of them blushed, and they didn't know what they were communicating.
It was estimated that he was talking about himself, but Liu Xiu didn't care about it, and went with them.
Soon several people came to the entrance of the village, and the girl who communicated with Liu Xiu motioned for him to wait here, and then they entered the village.
While waiting, Liu Xiu found that there were many people gathered in the open space of the village, and a table at the front was placed with a lot of things, almost all of them were eating, and those who gathered together were kneeling in the direction of the sea and chanting words.
Seeing this scene, Liu Xiu guessed that their behavior was related to the mirage they had seen before.
After about an hour like this, the girl who had communicated with Liu Xiu before came over with a few people, the middle was an old man with an old face, and the others were young and strong, looking at Liu Xiu with some vigilance.
"Outsiders from afar, we were sacrificing the sea before, I'm sorry to keep you waiting" When it was close, the old man in it immediately bowed to Liu Xiu.
He spoke the common language of this world, but Liu Xiu understood, so he returned the courtesy: "It's okay, but I didn't bother you, right?" ”
"Where and where, they don't know the rules, this son is a guest from afar, I neglect you, please come into the village and let us do our best to be a landlord" The old man saw that Liu Xiu was polite and courteous, and immediately invited with a smile.
This is also hospitable, Liu Xiu said secretly in his heart, but said on his lips: "I won't bother you, old man, I just want to inquire what kind of boundary this place is, how far it is from Jiannan Road, how to get there, if the old man knows, please let me know, I will leave soon."
"That's ......" The old man nodded, then thought for a moment but looked at Liu Xiu and shook his head and said: "This son, forgive me, I haven't heard of what Jiannan Dao you are talking about, so I can't answer it for you."
Eh, this is embarrassing, after thinking about it, Liu Xiu asked again: "Then is there anyone else in your village who has heard of Jiannan Dao?" ”
"No one knows, the villagers have only been to the town at the farthest, and I don't know about the outside, I also went to the big city for a while when I was young, so I can speak the lingua franca, but I don't know what Jiannan Road is" The old man said helplessly.
Liu Xiu was also helpless in this regard, so he had to say: "In this case, then I will think of a way myself, so I won't bother you."
Seeing that Liu Xiu was leaving, the old man immediately spoke: "This son, seeing that the sky is about to get dark, why don't you rest in our village for one night?" I can't help you really don't want to go, so let's do it, you stay with us for one night, it just so happens that someone from our village will go to the town tomorrow, and then you will go to the town together, and you should be able to know the answer you want when you get to the town."
Looking at the sky, it was indeed not early, and after a little groaning, Liu Xiu nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I will trouble you."
"Hehe, don't bother, don't bother, childe, please"
……
