Chapter 240: Paradise Village

This is a village hidden in the fog, the buildings of the village are all pointed and low wooden houses, and around the wooden houses, there are mushrooms the size of wooden houses, and the colorful mushrooms and wooden houses form an extremely harmonious beauty.

This time, everyone knows that this is not a mirage. Because a peculiar smell of food is wafting out of the smoke of every household and burrowing into everyone's nose. Mouth-watering.

Knocking lightly on the door of the first wooden house, an old man with a pointed hat, only seventy or eighty centimeters tall, but his beard hung down to the ground, opened the door.

Looking at the 'giants' outside, a little fear flashed on the old man's face. He asked hesitantly, "...... you guys What do you want to do? ”

"Hello old man, we are shipwrecked at sea, we came here by accident, and we have no ill will towards you." Meng Nan said with a smile.

The old man looked at the four uninvited guests suspiciously. The beautiful and refined beauty of the flowing wind and snow and Yin Ruoqing, coupled with Zhong Zhengyushu's lofty bearing, and the kindness on Meng Nan's face, really made people feel good at first sight.

So after a short hesitation, the old man dodged away and let the four of them into the house.

Through talking with the old man, everyone finally understood that this place was actually called the village of 'Paradise'.

The inhabitants of this area are also descendants of those who sought the Promised Land. Their ancestors were sailing across the ocean in wooden boats in search of paradise, but the ship was wrecked on the way, and a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, pulling them into the cave.

These people also passed through the passage and came here. They found the environment to be nice and settled here. Later, it was reproduced from generation to generation, and it became the current Paradise Village.

However, the population of the village is not too large, there are only a dozen households in total. Hundreds of people only. And this number is decreasing.

It has never been affected by earthquakes and tsunamis. But there is no sunlight, and fungi are their food. And their stature is also shorter and shorter from generation to generation. That's a consequence of inbreeding.

"Have none of you ever come out of the cave to find the outside world?" Meng Nan asked curiously.

The old man sighed: "None of the people who went out came back. Later, everyone faded this thought. ”

The people here are very similar to the people in the Peach Blossom Fountain that Meng Nan once read, and they don't know that the outside world has become upside down, but they are just slowly spending the rest of their lives in their own paradise.

The people here are probably a little timid because they have never been in contact with outsiders, but they are very simple.

The old man brought food and water for several people. The villagers also came to see these 'giants' outside, and a few people who hadn't had a good meal for a long time were gobbled up by the onlookers.

The food here is only mushrooms, but the taste is extremely delicious, and after Meng Nan has eaten and drunk his heart's content, his eyes fell on the forest in front of the village.

According to common sense, there is no sunlight on the bottom of the sea. It is not surprising that the mushrooms grow these trees. But it's a little unscientific.

According to the old man, the existence of these trees can be traced back to the time when they did not arrive here, and in this case, they can only sigh that nature is not strange.

However, Meng Nan was interested in these trees, but only because. These trees are the raw materials for shipbuilding. If you want to return to the Federation, you have to rely on them.

Next, the people settled down in this paradise village. Every day, the four of them were deliberating on how to get out of here by boat.

Mennan used to work in the shipyards of the Sona Empire. When it comes to shipbuilding, he has completely become a connoisseur. But the problem to overcome is that there is nothing but wood here. For example, ship nails!

What's more, even if the ship is built, there will be a series of problems behind it.

Like how to get the boat through that long passage. Also, how to get this boat from under the water to the surface...... These problems need to be solved with careful consideration.

According to the old man, the people in their village also wanted to go out on an expedition, but no one thought of using a boat, because it was simply unrealistic.

When they first went out, they used the stems of mushrooms to dig out an inner cabin, and then people got into it, and they were transported out of the passage and thrown into the sea.

During the expedition, the mushroom boat can be used as both a means of transportation and an edible one, killing two birds with one stone.

"So they died at sea!" Meng Nan sighed in his heart. The mushroom boat is a whimsical idea, which can be eaten and used, but those people did not think that how such a fragile thing as a mushroom could withstand the stormy seas of the sea!

However, this idea can be used for reference......

In the next few days, Meng Nan had been pondering, repeatedly figuring out how to make a means of transportation, and one by one he rejected the plans, and finally, he beckoned Zhong Zhengyushu and began to make a means of transportation for everyone to leave.

Meng Nan and Zhong Zhengyushu are two people, cutting down trees every day, and they are busy in a mess. Yin Ruoqing and Liufeng Xue were not idle, and the two, with the help of the old man, cut the mushrooms into pieces as reserve food.

And those villagers are curious and strong onlookers every day. Finally, a strange-looking thing appeared in the clearing outside the village.

This thing is huge, and this is the most intuitive impression to give people.

It's rough, it's a big deal.

Because there were no nails, the ship was actually built with thick wooden planks tied together from the bark of a tree to form a sturdy rope.

From the point of view of appearance, the most intuitive metaphor is that this thing seems to be a bunch of chopsticks tied together, but the chopsticks are not so irregular.

But in any case, the shape of this thing has nothing to do with the shape of the ship.

Meng Nan borrowed the idea of a submarine. After all, the environment here is special, and ordinary ships cannot rise from the bottom of the sea to the sea.

So this vehicle is made fully enclosed. At the same time, the front is light and the rear is heavy, which is convenient to use buoyancy to rise.

Although the exterior is very rough, the inside is still relatively spacious. In order to be able to adapt to long-distance voyages, Meng Nan put a lot of thought into this, and made this cottage submarine extremely huge, and spread thick mushrooms in the wide space inside.

One is that it can play the role of a protective cushion cushion, and the other is that it can be used as food.

At the same time, the residents here gave Meng Nan a kind of mushroom glue, the liquid secreted by the mushroom stem, although the viscosity is not large, but the waterproof performance is excellent, Meng Nan used it to paint every corner of the cottage submarine, for the sake of insurance, he simply waited for the mushroom glue to dry, and then applied two layers on it.

A few days later, the four of them put wheels on the cottage submarine, said goodbye to the villagers, pushed it, and returned to the passage...... (To be continued......)
