003: Noah's Ark [Adam's Story]
γAdam's Storyγ
Eighteen years old, the last day of the 2022 college entrance examination.
wrote his name on the answer sheet: Chen Zhenbin.
After writing all the multiple-choice, multiple-choice, and true/false questions, give up all the fill-in-the-blanks and major questions, and get up and hand in the paper.
Be the first person to walk out of the exam room, and then work for the summer vacation to save money to buy a mobile phone, and take the mobile phone to the junior college to live a good life.
It couldn't be more perfect, Chen Zhenbin, who left the examination room, walked out of the teaching building and ran towards the gate excitedly, but suddenly covered his ears.
It was a metallic noise, very unpleasant, and it seemed to be coming from behind him.
Turning his head to see that Chen Zhenbin didn't see anything, rubbed his eyes and walked out of the school gate.
Under the watchful eyes of the students' parents, a reporter from a local TV station took the microphone and asked, "You're the first candidate, right?" Is this year's question difficult? β
Chen Zhenbin shouted with a wicked smile: "The topic is simple, it can't stop me from going to work!" β
In the midst of the ridicule, Chen Zhenbin sped up his pace and went home before his parents went home, so that he could touch the computer for two hours!
The tinnitus in the next corner appeared behind him again, and Chen Zhenbin quickly turned his head and touched something at this time.
Behind him, who obviously didn't have anything, he was pushed out by his elbow with a reverberating ripple.
Translucent ripples flutter back and forth, as if there is a layer of fabric in front of them.
Chen Zhenbin reached out and grabbed it and wanted to lift it, but he could obviously feel that it was a cloak.
In the next second, the translucent cloak stretched out a glowing metal long stick, and the moment it touched Chen Zhenbin, the current spread throughout his body.
After the electric shock, I felt a strong feeling of dizziness, as if I had a dream for a long time, and I couldn't wake up from it.
In a daze, the aperture seemed to be constantly sweeping up and down on his body.
The metallic noise also sounded rhythmically, sounding like a conversation.
Chen Zhenbin, who opened his eyes slightly and came to his senses, saw two gray-headed aliens, with no hair on their bodies, their bodies full of wrinkles, and their huge deep black pupils were completely unfocused.
Behind the two aliens is a thick stack of books, these books Chen Zhenbin knows, the collection of books in the school's Shaw Library, each book has a green label in the lower right corner, with a magnetic is used to return books.
Aliens in front of you? That's what these aliens came to Earth for? Stealing books and knowledge about the Earth?
And Chen Zhenbin himself is now on an alien spaceship.
The butterfly-shaped UFO spacecraft is very spacious, and it is surrounded by translucent projection equipment, so you can clearly see the situation outside.
At this time, it was extremely dark outside, and Chen Zhenbin subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, wanting to see if he could see the earth.
It stands to reason that the aliens will take themselves on the spaceship and will be far away from the earth.
But at this time, no matter which angle he could see, he could only see darkness, and Chen Zhenbin was a little desperate.
Already out of the solar system? So where is the destination? Where do you go from here?
The sound of metal approached, and Chen Zhenbin turned his head again, finding that two aliens were staring at him at this time.
There was only about five centimeters between the faces, and Chen Zhenbin screamed, desperate and scared!
The metallic noise came from the alien's mouth, and in the next second, Chen Zhenbin saw clearly that the long stick was a sharp and glowing spear, which was once again pierced on his body.
Only then did I understand that the sound of metal is the language of aliens!
For a long time, he woke up, struggled, screamed, and corona, and kept repeating until Chen Zhenbin accepted his fate.
Chen Zhenbin, who woke up again, had a dry mouth and stopped shouting.
And the aliens never attacked Chen Zhenbin again this time, and Chen Zhenbin had a trace of luck.
Could this be some kind of entertainment trick show, the camera is hidden around. Now he's just filming tricks, and he's already a star on the big screen? So as long as it takes a little while, there will be a host who will come out and ask if he has been scared and if the aliens are realistic.
But he didn't wait for anything, only waited for the alien to stand in front of Chen Zhenbin with a thick Bible, and turned one of the pages to Chen Zhenbin.
A metallic voice came out, and a harsh and awkward language came from the device around his waist: "What is written on it?" β
"Water, I want water! I won't say anything without water! Chen Zhenbin shouted hard.
A jar of solid green gel was stuffed into Chen Zhenbin's mouth, and Chen Zhenbin chewed hard to feel the juice oozing from the gel. It's a bit fishy, but it's water.
The awkward voice sounded again: "What is written on it?" β
It was an original Bible in English, and Chen Zhenbin, who had never scored 20 points in English, felt hopeless for the first time.
But luckily, there's an illustration on it.
It is known that this is a Bible, and the illustration is a big ship in the sea, so this must be Noah's Ark, right?
Regret reading less, regret reading less.
Chen Zhenbin had no idea what every sentence of the English book in front of him meant, but he had heard many Bible stories.
The aliens in front of you shouldn't understand, right? So why can't it be fooled? Isn't it just the English Bible?
Chen Zhenbin talked eloquently: "In ancient times, human beings angered God, and God wanted to punish human beings, and God found Noah......"
"Who!" The sound came from the equipment on the alien's waist, and the alien's godless eyes combined with the wrinkled gray face made Chen Zhenbin extremely depressed.
Chen Zhenbin was stunned for a moment, frightened.
The aliens put the Bible on Chen Zhenbin's face: "Who! Who is God and who is God? β
"Who? God is God, the God who created all things, who made Adam and Eve, who made all mankind. Chen Zhenbin reacted that there was indeed knowledge that he knew was completely unknown and unfamiliar in their eyes.
The voice from the device in the waist came again: "So this God, that is to say God found Adam?" β
Do you really want to explain the Bible inside and out? Do you need it? It's too wrong to say more, it's better to adapt it directly!
Yes, yes, God found Adam and asked him to build a big ship to avoid the end of the world, and others did not believe that there was an end of the world. But Adam took Eve with him, and every animal on the earth and put them on the boat, and then the Flood came. Stormy seas, drowning the earth! Only Adam and Eve on Noah's Ark and the animals survived, gone! Chen Zhenbin explained.
"That's all I wrote? So what are you Noah? You just mentioned, why Noah's Ark! β
Chen Zhenbin gasped: "Noah, through the fake word, through the promise big, adjective, means big!" Noah's Ark also means this, and it is explained to be a very big ship, the one in the picture! β
"That's Noah's Ark in the picture?" The two aliens asked again.
Chen Zhenbin nodded like pounding garlic, whether it was or not, he could only admit it now.
The aliens were talking to each other, and the sound of metal grinding came out of their mouths, which was extremely unpleasant.
Then the glowing spear was raised again to aim at Chen Zhenbin, who roared angrily: "Why do you want to call me!" I'm not wrong, that's what the book is about! β
Have you been caught lying yourself? But no matter whether he found out or not, he had to hold on to the end, Chen Zhenbin still insisted on it, and was shocked and comatose again.
Chen Zhenbin, who woke up again, roared angrily: "Grass and mud horses! What Lao Tzu said is true! β
Chen Zhenbin woke up again, with the sea in front of him and the forest behind him. Recognize that you are on a desert island, and there is a mountain in the center of the desert island.
Did the aliens put themselves back on Earth? As soon as he had such a thought, the next second the ugly voice sounded again: "From now on, you are Adam!" Shipbuilding, the end of the flood! β
If, if this voice is a normal human voice, Chen Zhenbin will forget it, but as soon as he hears it, he understands that it is an alien voice.
So I didn't go back at all, and it didn't feel right!
The waves crashed against the shore all around, and the tide rose about one step at a time.
It's about 20 meters away from your location, and about 50 meters from the forest.
Therefore, he needs to build the so-called Noah's Ark before the entire island is completely submerged.
This?
The miracles that you say in your own mouth, and the results need to be realized by yourself?
How could it be made? Anyway, as long as you have a small boat that can accommodate yourself, right?
Helpless, Chen Zhenbin began to pick up branches and rattans, and he couldn't build a ship at all. But Chen Zhenbin knows that if he really doesn't do it at all, he will only be drowned.
So he had to know something, and found a dead tree, tying the vines to the stout dead tree, hoping to increase its buoyancy.
Before I knew it, half an hour had passed, and the rising tide had washed to my feet.
Chen Zhenbin's small wooden boat is completed, but it is actually a rotten wooden stake of the same size as himself, which is wrapped around many trees and vines to increase buoyancy.
With the lapping waves, Chen Zhenbin climbed into his small boat.
The boat drifted to the sea with the tide, and Chen Zhenbin looked at his humble boat and roared excitedly: "It's done!" My life is up to me! β
The water began to spread upwards frantically, and the waves began to become more and more violent.
By the time Chen Zhenbin reacted, the vines began to fall off, and the dead branches began to sink slowly after being invaded by the water.
In less than a minute, Chen Zhenbin was floating in the sea with the only half-dead tree in his arms.
I didn't know how many mouthfuls of water I choked, but the sea water was not salty, it was clear fresh water, and Chen Zhenbin, who choked a few sips, began to replenish water.
Heavy rain even began to pour around, and I floated on the surface of the sea with rotting wood.
I can't swim!
Now Chen Zhenbin is suffering from the apocalypse.
It's just that he doesn't have Noah's Ark, and he is a landlubber who is about to drown.
When Chen Zhenbin was about to drown, he found that he was floating and could see the outside.
It turns out that the island where he is located is nothing more than an exhibition hall, and the gray-skinned aliens have been watching their every move.
The water level began to slowly drop, and finally returned to the original island, and the end of the world is over?
Chen Zhenbin was lying on the sand and dying, and the ugly voice came again: "Tell the story of Noah's Ark again." β
Chen Zhenbin didn't intend to pay attention to it at all, but the sound of crackling electricity sounded, and a glowing metal rod was aimed at him in mid-air.
Chen Zhenbin reluctantly got up and said, "I am Adam, and Eve and I have received orders from God...... bla bla blaβ¦β¦ Survive the flood. β
After Chen Zhenbin finished speaking, a box with a parachute floated down from the sky.
Chen Zhenbin walked over and took a look, and it was the unpalatable green gel from before, which was obviously food.
"Welcome, Adam in Collection No. 666. The end will continue from time to time, and we will send gifts. You'll need bigger boats to keep yourself from drowning. The ugly voice explained.
Chen Zhenbin collapsed! This means that it will be an endless cycle, and there will be an end to the future!
The forest behind him is being rebuilt, and the trees here are growing fast, and it seems that they can grow back no matter how they are destroyed.
Sleepy, tired!
Chen Zhenbin closed his eyes.
β¦β¦
A month later.
Chen Zhenbin is not sure if it is really a month, but every day Chen Zhenbin will use a tree bark with an irregular stone axe to register the time, and the registered time is also registered according to the rising and setting of the sun given by the aliens.
Chen Zhenbin grew a beard, and his hands and feet moved very quickly under the sharpening, and he could easily use the stone axe tools he made to hollow out a big tree, and the person sat in it and took out two oars. Find a huge palm fronds woven into a dense cross-knit net to use as an umbrella to easily escape the end of the world.
On the post-apocalyptic sea, he stands on the ship and begins to explain the story of Adam's construction of Noah's Ark made up by himself.
Then these alien spectators were seen, waving their hands goodbye, and the water descended back to the island.
Chen Zhenbin also slowly understood and got used to it, these gray-skinned aliens outside the window above their heads should be tourists, and this seems to be the museum of living creatures they have collected from various planets.
Chen Zhenbin is only the 666th item in the collection, and other invisible glass rooms should also be on display of other planets and creatures being imprisoned.
Although the green gel is unpalatable, it is expensive because it is very full.
Since you don't recycle food, you can even store these gels for emergencies.
I thought that this was everything, but for one day more than the first month, Chen Zhenbin woke up again and felt that something was licking him.
Chen Zhenbin reacted that he was a pug! Helplessly, this time the wooden boat has to accommodate one more licking dog.
The ugly voice also explained: "This is our gift, bring the gift on the boat, and we will add the gift one after another." If an animal does not make it to the boat, the same amount of meat will be removed from you as punishment. β
Finally, even the punishment was thought of.
Of course, this punishment means that each less dog will have to chop off at least one of its legs as compensation.
It's only going to get harder in the future!
The second month! The second pug has also arrived, and it has enough for a male and a female!
Chen Zhenbin understood something, if he couldn't rely on the materials on the island to build the real Noah's Ark, then one day, he would be buried with the drowned animals.
Helplessly, the learning began.
Half a year has passed, and enough attempts have made Chen Zhenbin proficient in making rafts.
His clothes had long since been torn, and he learned to make simple clothes out of leaves and vines, and to disassemble his previous clothes to make something like a pocket and pin it around his waist to store polished stone tools and flints.
Now on a raft, in addition to himself, there are two dogs, a sheep and two monkeys.
It is still far from building Noah's Ark by himself, but Chen Zhenbin is confident that he will complete it while slowly increasing the number of animals.
