Chapter 388: The ...... I Vaguely Seem to See
The natural moat and the earth are faulted, and the steep cliff wall divides the two worlds.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arashi, this world is small, it does seem to be small in the whole universe, but it is vast, and the world is incredibly vast for the creatures that inhabit its surface, and yet, fate always seems to guide the destined encounter.
Lanxing, macro continent, heavenly desolate ancient land, near rock faults.
"That's really ...... Irrefutable evidence. ”
Beton looked up at the Dire lying above the Shadow Tree with an indescribably subtle feeling. Is this the consequence of thinking too much? The shadow tree, which he thought was very suspicious, didn't have any problems after the Dire scurried all the way to the treetops, but the vine that he thought was relatively safe at first was instead a dangerous disguised hunter like the green vine snake, and he could only sigh that he was thinking too much......
The Shadow Tree has a flat trunk, only a few centimeters thick, and a flat model of a tree is not as easy to climb as a normal tree, but it is nothing to Bayton. The palms and soles of the moon's hands and feet have an adsorption structure similar to that of geckos, and they can even climb on smooth metal surfaces, coupled with strong muscle strength, it is no problem to climb this kind of rock wall with borrowing points, but the real trouble is actually Feiyuan...... She couldn't levitate herself like a real Xinyu person would, not even by using a signal to simulate an electric current, because that level of magnetic interference would make the already precarious visceral situation even worse.
"So, I can only trouble you......" Fei Qi looked up at Belton who had climbed to the top a little helplessly, and grabbed his arm stretched out, the muscle strength of the Moon Prayer Man was still very strong, and Fei Yu itself did not have much weight, so Beiton was stunned to rely on his arm strength to forcibly pull her up, and in this way, he approached the top of the rock wall by climbing and pulling a section. As for the Dire, you say? The little creature was no better than Bayton in his ability to climb, and almost swooped up and disappeared at the top of the rock face.
There is nothing unusual about the fluff on the surface of the shadow tree, as if it is really just ordinary fluff, and their presence greatly strengthens the friction on the side of the trunk and makes it easier to climb.
And just like that, after a few minutes of hard work, Betton was already sweating. A large part of the Hong Continent is in the tropics, and the temperature here is much higher than that of the Yuan Continent, and the animal skin clothes on his body have long been put into the package...... This may sound ironic, obviously he was still planning the problem of keeping out the cold after arriving in the Northern Yuan Continent, but now he is tormented by the scorching heat. Fei Yu didn't have such obvious signs of sweating as him, but the fact that there was almost no sweat on the surface of her body indicated that her body was abnormal, and there was no evaporation and heat dissipation, which caused her body temperature to rise rapidly.
This also caused Peton to be severely dizzy while he was only gasping for breath with some difficulty...... If it weren't for the fact that the consciousness of the signal was not affected by those nerve signals, maybe she would have fainted by this time, but she still managed to hold on.
Anyway, she didn't expect this body to live a long life, so it was better to use it more now, she thought so herself.
However, fate did not make them completely hopeless, as the rock wall seemed to raise the other half of the earth, forming a vast fault with no end in sight, and as they climbed along the highest shadow tree to the top of the cliff, they heard a sound in their ears.
It was the sound of the river flowing, so crisp and pleasant at this moment.
"Here and below...... It's two different worlds entirely. When Betton saw the view from the top of the rock face, he couldn't help but sigh.
The world below is a vast wasteland with sparse forests, where most of the people who live there are large animals that are good at running, such as the horned deer, and water is an extremely rare treasure. However, above the rock fault that seemed to run through the entire desolate land, they could clearly see the river flowing and the rainforest flourishing...... A boundary line seems to divide two completely different worlds, and the rivers do not have any route down the rock face, they crisscross each other, forming a complex water system and a thriving ecology here.
Of course, this is what a tropical rainforest should look like, and if it is said to be a natural wilderness, it should not be considered a natural wilderness, right? After all, this is no longer a barren land, but who knows what's going on, even in the future era when civilization has footprints in almost every inch of Lanxing, people's definition of the Heavenly Desolation is only a part of the macro continent. As for which area of the Macro Continent is the so-called Heavenly Desolate Ancient Land, there has been no clear demarcation line on this issue. Some people think that the desolation should refer to the barren area, some people think that the desolation should refer to the scope of Henghuan's activities, and some people think that only the small coastline where the shipwrecked first landed is the real desolate ancient land...... In short, there are different opinions and no conclusions, anyway, it is impossible for the original name holder to stand up and explain his original intention, right?
In the end, a great thinker lamented that perhaps the real desolation and nightmare of the eternal world only exist in people's dreams. Once the rational mind tries to uncover the truth, the original fantastic ancient legend will completely disappear......
But those strife had not yet come, and at this moment, in the upper reaches of the long river of time, at a moment that future scholars could not even look up to, the Moon Prayer Man named Beton and Fei Yuan set foot on this miraculous land. This feeling is like the star continent that has long disappeared in the past, even though it has long been submerged by the endless sea in the movement of continental plates, the miracle that comes from it has never disappeared.
After all, the ancestors of the Xin Yu people are Mystery Xin, and the Star Continent is the original home of the species named Mystery Xin, and this will never change.
"If I can go back alive, I must record these stories, and maybe in the future, this moment of ours will be immortalized in the annals ......of history," Beyton muttered as he looked at the glare of the sun in the sky.
"Have you figured out what title to use?" Fei asked with a chuckle.
"The title of the book...... Let's call it Survival in the Wilderness! In order to prevent Fei Yu from making any more terrible suggestions, Bayton decisively made a decision with a name that suddenly came to mind, "Maybe it can be adapted into a screenplay." ”
"Are you really sure it's not called an anomalous creature?" Fei Yu muttered a little regretfully, but did not insist on anything, but stumbled to the edge of the water in front of him, lowered his body and stretched his arms into the crystal clear river...... The cold breath from the river seemed to take away the heat in her body, and the silver-white hair with a pale blue also fell into the river with her movements, floating on the surface of the river.
Feeling that the body temperature of his body was so high that something was about to happen, Fei Yi didn't have any scruples about anything, and after relieving a little, he simply stood in the river. Although the river was almost waist-deep, the current was very gentle, so there was no danger at all, but Beyton was a little embarrassed to see her do so.
"You don't seem to have any clothes to change, is that really fine......" Betton silently debunked this cruel reality, that's right, although there are still replacement clothes in the package that Betton prepared himself, but Fei Yu has been dressed like this since they met, which means that she hasn't changed any clothes for at least ten days...... And now she is completely immersed in the river with all her clothes on.
I haven't changed my clothes and gained weight for more than ten days, is this really okay?
"Well, don't worry~" Fei Yi stuffed the slender discharger into his mouth again, and stood in the river water comfortably and squinted, "The clothes are not absorbent materials, so it should be regarded as washing clothes by the way." ”
That tone of course left Bayton speechless, there was always a feeling that there were so many places to complain that I didn't know where to start. He struggled silently for a while, but in the end he still couldn't do such a thing as taking a bath in the river with the girl, so let's wait until Fei Yi finished soaking...... Thinking so, he stood at the top of the rock wall and turned to look in the direction he had just come. There was an unobstructed view of the sparse woods and wasteland below, where they had set foot before, but Beyton was stunned for a moment, then looked at the location of one of the trees, but found nothing out of the ordinary.
I always feel that I seemed to see the figure shaking at that moment, is it an illusion caused by fatigue? He stared at the area with some disbelief, but he couldn't see the details clearly because of the distance, and the records of Heng Xun came to his mind again and again at this moment, were the nightmares that made the people who came here in the past so frightened, and even risked death to escape, real? He still didn't know anything about it, but at least sometimes he preferred to believe it rather than what it didn't.
He continued to look down at the ground below, trying to find any suspicious signs in it, but the moment the figure shook seemed to be really just his own hallucination, for he didn't notice anything wrong for several minutes, until an exclamation of surprise from behind him interrupted his observation, and he heard the sound of splashing water.
Betton quickly interrupted his observation, climbed down the raised rock to look over the river, and then what he saw stunned him...... Standing in the middle of the river, Fei Yu looked in amazement at the big creature that was going down the river, it looked like a large quadruped similar to a tortoise, but the tortoise was more than two meters long, and there were many strange holes in the carapace of its back.
"It's amazing, isn't it, this big guy just floated down the current." Fei Yuan chuckled, she touched the big one's head, it didn't seem to resist her touch, there was no fear or resentment, Dire was watching curiously, but not very happy to approach the river, "Looks like maybe we will have good luck next." ”
Macro turtles, this large creature endemic to the macro continent is even named after the continent, they have a gentle personality and great strength, and even some macro turtles will be domesticated to do some heavy physical work in the future.
