Chapter 124: A Lake of Sand in the Desert

For the world of the dead, it is very strange to use the word 'half a day' as a unit of time, when the previous heroes went on an expedition to the world of the dead, they spent more than forty hours in the world of death, but during this period did not experience a sunrise and sunset, so everyone temporarily judged that the world of the dead is in the eternal night, and the sky hangs in the beautiful and bewitching posture of the three moon ladies. Therefore, as the native inhabitants www.biquge.info of the world of the dead, the undead should theoretically not use the day as a unit of time, although it may be a message transmitted by the outside world or inadvertently mentioned by the gods in the oracle, but a unit of time that is detached from reality cannot be widely used. So when Mr. Ghost finally said that there was still half a day to arrive, the members of the adventure group all felt a strange sense of disobedience, but thinking of the experience of the past half a day after entering the world of the dead, thinking that this world had surprised and helpless everyone more than once, including Pannis, everyone consciously closed their mouths, and everyone believed that as long as they observed, these questions would eventually find answers.

As it turned out, the idea was correct, because after a few more hours of progress, the answer was found. The answer is simple and obvious, that is, in this world, there is also the concept of heaven, but it is no longer the chariot of Huronte, the lord of the sun, that represents the beginning and end of the day, but the dancing posture of the ladies of the moon. The first to notice the problem was Eva, the mechanical girl with the most accurate judgment, and under intentional observation, the blonde girl was very keen to notice that the position of the moon in the sky was moving slowly, and not forever hanging in the sky as Pannis's previous description. However, Eva did not immediately say this discovery, but continued to observe for a period of time, and finally told everyone her conclusion, the third lady of the moon is following her fixed trajectory, from west to east across the sky, which means that the day in the mouth of the undead is likely to be calculated by the rise of the moon and the setting of the moon, as for after the moon sets, what the night will look like in the traditional sense, it can only be judged by the eyes, but according to Pannis, the night after the moon falls, should be the real darkness, the darkness without stars and moons。

Perhaps Pannis's guess was right, because as the three moons were more and more inclined and the light in the environment became weaker, the desert began to darken. However, the undead did not seem to be in a hurry at all, because at the end of the line of sight, a flickering glimmer of light could already be seen, and it was judged by experience that it was caused by the lake on the ground, reflecting the moonlight from an oblique angle, that is, the rest stop was already in sight.

"Hahaha, it's finally here. Sure enough, Mr. Ghost, who was accompanying him, let out a cheerful laugh, habitually flew into the sky, drew various shapes in the air, and said happily: "I'm tired and tired, I've been busy for a day, and I can finally have a good rest, hahaha, I'm so happy." ”

"Well, do you undead feel tired too?" asked Pannis, seemingly casually, "I thought you didn't have the physical strength of the concept." ”

"Physical strength? We don't really have that concept. Mr. Ghost did not suspect what Pannisy was spying on in this question, and replied very frankly: "But our spirits will also be tired, when we are mentally tired, we will feel uncomfortable doing anything, for us, this is the feeling of tiredness, probably different from you creatures, I remember seeing a few guys who have more memories of when they were alive, and they have said the difference." ”

"No wonder. Pannis nodded thoughtfully, thinking of the undead's skillful eating actions before, and said in a low voice: "Presumably this is the reason for eating, if you don't eat, although it won't affect your life, you will have a sense of hunger?"

"Haha, that's right, creatures are smart. Mr. Ghost floated back in front of Pannis, saying, "The experience of hunger is so unbearable that we don't want to suffer from hunger after trying to eat once." ”

"Yes, that's right. The two little ones immediately agreed: "It feels very comfortable to be full, who wants to be hungry." And the food cooked by Brother Pannis's brother and the two maid sisters was so delicious, wow, suddenly a little hungry again. ”

"Then there's a question I've been trying to figure out, where does your food come from, I've never heard of sand and bones in the recipes of the undead. Pannis glared at the two fools who were making trouble, just asked his own question, suddenly looked at the scene in front of him blankly, opened his mouth wide for a long time and couldn't close it, and said with a wry smile after a long time: "No need to answer, I think I already know the answer." ”

In the dim light, Pannis finally saw the scene around the Lake of Sand in the distance. On the vast desert, a huge lake with more than ten square kilometers lies quietly in the center of the desert, and in the dark water, the reflection of the three moons flashes with crystal light. The shore of the lake is composed of thick sandy beaches, and there are giant trees growing sparsely on the beach, but if you look closely, those towering black shadows are not actually giant trees, but giant mushrooms, the highest of these mushrooms is more than ten meters, and the thick umbrella handle makes them really look like big trees.

"It reminds me of the Crying Cave. Vivien, who had applied the Eagle Eye Technique, could keep up with Pennis's eyesight, and looked directly at these strange mushrooms with him, and said dumbfoundedly, "Although these mushrooms are too ordinary, they are not as distinctive as those shining mushrooms in the Weeping Cave, but they are very similar in height. ”

Indeed, these mushrooms are too ordinary, the gray skin, and will not erupt spores, there is nothing special except for the height, and even the height is not special, because if you get closer, you can also see that there are many mushrooms of the same species near them that are several meters or even less than half a meter high, indicating that not every plant of them can grow to a height of more than ten meters. But the problem is that these seemingly featureless mushrooms have the biggest characteristics......

"Lina. Pannis rubbed his eyebrows, and asked in a tired voice: "You also perceive whether this world is really full of the power of death." ”

"Well, it's true. The priest of Denya was extremely sensitive to the energy of death, and immediately replied in the affirmative: "The energy of death is so strong that it makes people want to vomit." ”

"Whew, that's not like I'm misperceived. Pannis smiled bitterly and said, "But when will there be living creatures in the land of the dead? ”
