Chapter 66: The Fortune Teller (1)
Bing patted Han Yu on the shoulder: "Let me introduce you, the illusionist on the other side is the illusionist." He relied on him to protect the base's perimeter, and he used his ability to distort light to transform the place into another scene, so that outsiders could not easily detect it, and the Empire would not easily detect it. And Kenmoto was one of the first few people we created. ”
"Didn't the Empire ever discover here?" Han Yu said his question, such a huge gathering place of creatures, the divergent infrared is not ordinary. With the Empire's satellite surveillance, it is impossible to go undetected unless other large populations above it are blocked.
Just like when the starry sky didn't converge, just one creature on the large side was noticed by the Empire. Now, even though hallucinations were interfering, he didn't believe the Empire had never explored this place.
"I've explored, but we've fooled me every time. Below the mountain range there was ore with a high specific heat capacity, and the heat emitted by the ore obscured our presence, so after a few explorations, they gave up. And each time, the investigators were guided by hallucinations and could not enter at all. ”
As an underground passage opened, Hanyu followed the three of them into it. There is no dampness and cold away from the ground as expected, but there is a hint of warmth, and the air is relatively dry. When you touch the wall with your hand, you can feel the temperature relatively suitable.
And a red thread on the wall wears countless bells.
"Our base is located in the vein, and the heat absorbed by the vein is conducted through the ore into the cavity of the mountain wall. And our food and light sources are converted through heat energy, so our life is not too hard. At the very least, food and clothing are worry-free, and the cold and heat are not disturbed. It's much better than the compatriots who died in battle, and it's much better than the puppet-in-arms comrades who have lost themselves. Bing said with emotion.
"Perhaps!" Hanyu said a little perfunctorily, he couldn't help but worry. It is not in vain to be born in sorrow and die in peace, a stable life is always a drain on people's hearts, and perhaps the former alliance of the Anomalous still has the determination to fight the Empire. But five years of worry-free life is enough to wear out too much fighting spirit, and how many people at the bottom still remember the bloodshed at the beginning?
Seeing Han Yu's worried look, Jian opened his mouth and said: "It's going to be fine, the original experience is vivid, and it won't become normal because of five years of happy time." ”
"That'll be fine." Although he had a sword to explain, Hanyu still planned to see it himself.
When the ice carried the cold jade through the two walls, the space in front of him suddenly opened up. There is farmland in it, rice is grown, and there are houses, although it is relatively dilapidated. The women who do laundry on the side of the road are patched, but they are relatively clean. Seven or eight-year-old boys on the side of the road were chasing and fighting, and there were no old people in sight, and there were young people everywhere.
After a little thought, Han Yu knew that there would not be too many old, weak, sick and disabled people who survived the disaster of the Zerg. Although they are not objects to be abandoned, no one can escape with them in the face of a powerful swarm.
There may be one or two survivors, but the herd after that will also bring destruction.
At this time, Han Yu couldn't help but look at the two people, Ice and Fire. Their clothes are brightly colored and look out of place here. Xu is Hanyu's gaze draws attention, and Bing explains that their clothes are from the original Shattered City. In fact, every household has new clothes, but most people don't know how long the days of hiding will last. Put away everything that can be put away, and put down what you can wear first.
Han Yu shook his head: "I can't say whether it's good or bad, if I don't think about it in the future, this kind of person can't live." It's not a matter of thinking about the future all the time. ”
"It's hard to grasp this degree, just as we always insist on what we shouldn't insist on and give up what we shouldn't give up." Bing touched the head of the child next to him and motioned for him to hurry up and tell the soothsayer that a guest had arrived.
"Indeed, the future is unknown. Who knows what to hold on to and what to give up. The road ahead is uncertain, and who knows if we should surrender? Or revolt? ”
The four of them glanced at each other and immediately laughed. They all understand that the other party is a mortal fighter and will not surrender to the Taixu Empire. Without fighting to the last moment, who knows whether to give up or hold on to what is persistent.
A ten-year-old child, with several children, rushed towards Bing: "Uncle Bing, Brother Huo." Did you bring anything back this time? The boy remembered the meat they had brought a few months ago, a delicacy he hadn't eaten in a long time.
A sad face suddenly appeared on Bing's face, while a smile appeared on Fire's face.
Bing squatted down so that he was at the same height as him, and pinched his face with both hands: "Little baby, how many times have I told you." It's Brother Bing, Uncle Fire. Why can't you always remember? If you're like that, I won't bring you anything to eat next time. ”
The child stood on tiptoe, came to Bing's ear and whispered, "Uncle Fire asked me to do this, and he said to call once, bring us meat to eat." ”
With Hanyu's body and the sword's ears, they all heard the child's whispering and showed a knowing smile. Although Ice and Fire are the guardians of the Alliance of Strangers, they are also children in a sense, and the innocence in their hearts has never been forgotten.
But perhaps this innocence will only stay within the Alliance of Strangers, and the outside world will only see the ruthlessness of ice and fire.
The fire on the side didn't know that the child had betrayed him, and was still happy about the child's name.
Bing whispered in the child's ear: "Then you will call me Uncle Bing in front of your Uncle Huo, and call me Brother Bing in private, okay?" ”
"Will Uncle Fire come back with food?" The child said worriedly.
"It's okay, he will, and I'll sneak it for you. Like ice cream, fruit. Ice continues to tempt the child.
"Okay, pull the hook." The child holds out the little thumb of his right hand.
Bing also hooked it with the little finger of his right hand: "The hook is not allowed to change for a hundred years." Okay, let's go play. ”
"What did you say?" Curious, Fire asked him to eavesdrop, but he couldn't. But I asked head-on, and it was still fine.
"It's a secret between men." Bing squinted his eyes and swore an oath.
Fire grabbed Ice by the neck and pulled him towards the depths of the Alliance.
"Don't mind, that's what they are. Duty for a lifetime, no regrets. And how many people in the world can find a confidant? "Jian knows that people from the outside world sometimes hold hands with each other at will, and they will also be talked about by the three aunts and six women.
The people of the base have experienced the rebellion of the swarm and the betrayal of humanity, and have become tolerant. Although I don't know how Hanyu Hanyu is, it's better to make it clear.
"There are many kinds of love! Family, love, friendship, confidants, and like-minded people, although not all of them have been experienced, should be respected. ”
The person in front of him noticed that Hanyu and the sword had not followed, so they stopped, waved at Hanyu and shouted, "Come along, we will take you to the soothsayer." ”
