004: Animal Crossing
While Chen Zhenbin is becoming more and more familiar with the road, the difficulty is gradually increasing, and there is no guarantee that lions, tigers and even elephants will appear one day.
But even lions and tigers are not afraid, these animals seem to have been taken away from their wild nature, they will not attack themselves, and even regard themselves as their masters, and they can eat green gel to satisfy their hunger.
The green gel is also given more and more every time, and of course, Chen Zhenbin has also learned to prevent problems before they happen, such as reserving and expanding the raft in advance before the new animals arrive next month.
Chen Zhenbin even looked forward to the lion and tiger, but in the seventh month, Chen Zhenbin waited for a woman.
"Wake up, how are you sleeping here? Why are your clothes so torn? Cosplay Robinson? The woman's voice woke Chen Zhenbin up.
Chen Zhenbin looked at the woman in front of him and looked at the woman in front of him: "My name is Chen Zhenbin, what is your name?" ”
Chen Zhenbin looked at the woman in front of him, not his favorite type.
The facial features are very ordinary, and even a little fat, one meter six hundred and sixteen?
I haven't seen a human being for seven months, and no matter what the other party looks like, Chen Zhenbin is worth celebrating.
"My name is Zheng Libaijia." The woman said her name.
"Four words? Japanese? Chen Zhenbin asked.
"No, no, no, my father's surname is Zheng, my mother's surname is Li, they gave me this name." Zheng Libaijia explained.
Chen Zhenbin nodded his head and excitedly began to tell what had happened.
Chen Zhenbin said that there are aliens, and he and she were brought here by aliens. But only halfway through the words, Zheng Li Baijia obviously didn't believe it.
"You're crazy, aren't you? What do you say there are aliens? Although the current situation is also difficult to explain, I remember going to summer camp with my teachers and classmates yesterday, and then I woke up to find that I was here and you slept next to me. Zheng Li Baijia said what happened before he came here.
Chen Zhenbin didn't explain, he was busy with his own affairs, waiting for the water level to rise again, and pulled Zheng Libaijia onto the big raft he made
Because of the foresight that reserved space on the ship, it was not a problem for Zheng Li Baijia to get on board.
Chen Zhenbin did not explain until the water level rose, and the downpour was combined with strong winds.
The gray-skinned aliens outside the window in the distance confirmed what Chen Zhenbin said.
Zheng Libaijia was stupid, Chen Zhenbin made it clear that no matter how comforting he was, it was useless, only when he saw it himself, and then got used to it was the most important thing.
Chen Zhenbin began to tell the audience the story of Noah's Ark that he had made up.
Until the water level dropped, Zheng Libaijia cried and blushed.
"I want Dad, I want Mom, I want to go home!" Zheng Li Baijia cried and screamed, pounding the ground.
Chen Zhenbin threw a piece of green gel to the other party and said, "Eat, if you don't want to die, help, we need to build a big ship that can hold all the animals." ”
A week, two weeks.
This one named Zheng Li Baijia is really useless. This is Chen Zhenbin's first evaluation of him, and the identities of both parties are clear after asking each other.
Before coming here, Chen Zhenbin was only a high school student in Huaihua, while Zheng Libaijia was two years older than him, a Chinese exchange student in France, who originally returned to China after summer camp but had no chance.
Chen Zhenbin concealed the fact that he did not know English and recited the Bible, saying that it was to prevent aliens from reading the true history of the earth.
Zheng Li Baijia didn't believe it and couldn't do it, after all, it was a fact that he was locked up here.
Zheng Libaijia couldn't help in building Noah's Ark, and it took two weeks to learn to weave vines into hemp rope.
However, Zheng Libaijia's education is true, hearing that the other party studied art in France, Chen Zhenbin handed over the design drawings of the future Noah's Ark to Zheng Libaijia for production.
Even if it has increased to two people now, it is obvious that the time required to build the ark is far from enough, probably because one is a burden.
Chen Zhenbin found himself needing to calculate the loss of the hull for each new animal, as well as for each doomsday loss.
By chance, Zheng Libaijia asked: "The two of us are tired and tired, don't animals have to do things?" Is this fair? What if the elephant really comes in the future? Is it appropriate to work for a few tons? ”
"Elephants are not as useless as you say, isn't there an elephant show in Thailand? You can also carry heavy loads! Weight! Chen Zhenbin muttered and reacted to something!
"What's wrong with you?" Zheng Li Baijia looked at Chen Zhenbin.
"Noah's Ark, at least a ship the size of an entire island, right? We can only pick up vines and use simple stone axes to cut trees to make the hull of the ship, but in the future, we will definitely have to use a large number of trees to make the hull, and we will not be able to push it at all. So you can look at the animals that are now given to us! Chen Zhenbin asked.
"Two rats, two dogs, a sheep, a horse, and two monkeys?" Zheng Libaijia looked at the animals in the fence in the distance, which Chen Zhenbin used to fence it off, so that it could be brought immediately when the tide was high. Otherwise, if you get lost and drown, you will have to get flesh out of yourself.
Chen Zhenbin nodded: "They are very obedient, but we never know how to use them." You think that rats can make holes, sheep and horses can ride and transport, and monkeys can help weave hemp rope at least at the same level as you, right? ”
"You say I'm not as good as a monkey!" Zheng Li Baijia shouted excitedly.
Chen Zhenbin shook his head: "That's not what I mean, I continue to work as a coolie shipbuilder." You don't have to do the hemp rope, you can try to see if you can command the animals now. Let the monkeys weave twine, let the other animals go out to find materials, and so on. ”
Zheng Libaijia also suddenly realized after hearing this: "Then it's not the two of us who build ships, but everyone together." ”
"Everyone?" Chen Zhenbin heard the word and looked at the animals in captivity.
"yes, treat them as people, as friends, have you ever played with them? Animal Crossing? We have animals, we have forests, come together, Noah's Ark will have! Zheng Li Baijia said excitedly, of course, Zheng Li Baijia also concealed the fact that only the protagonist in the game Animal Crossing is a burden, and other animals are cumbersome.
Chen Zhenbin nodded his head, and instantly became confident: "I want to cooperate well, Noah's Ark is really a matter of time, from a completely impossible to a possibility!" ”
……
No one could have imagined that they would survive five years.
Chen Zhenbin has no tools to shave, and has completely become Robinson.
And Zheng Li Baijia also got a devil figure from a 1.6 meter chubby dun, but he didn't have cosmetics and didn't bother to wash his face, so he looked a lot better because he was thin, but he was only average in the ranks of beauties.
Zheng Li Baijia's clothes are also broken, wearing a grass skirt, with Zheng Li Baijia's design, the clothes are more suitable for wearing. The two of them are like savages, but because they only have each other, there is no dislike.
Because of the warming of feelings, a symbolic wedding was also held, and animals were invited as guests, and even began to be ashamed.
But I don't know why, I can't have children.
Unable to have children, Chen Zhenbin and Zheng Libaijia probably understand, first of all, Zheng Libaijia does not have menstruation, and secondly, it stands to reason that rabbits and mice are big children. A litter of dozens of them is not a problem, but the past five years have also been infertility.
Chen Zhenbin also found a problem, that is, the problem of longevity.
There was a cicada two years ago, and it was almost crushed to death by Zheng Li Baijia as soon as it came out.
It stands to reason that cicadas have a very short lifespan, but of course they should live for a long, long time during the larval stage. It can't survive a summer after becoming a cicada, assuming that one summer is the limit. But two more years have passed, and there is no sign of death.
So the truth is that when everyone's fertility is deprived, everyone's life expectancy has increased by leaps and bounds, and even Chen Zhenbin has a feeling that his appearance has been sealed, because Zheng Li Baijia often says that Chen Zhenbin looks like he saw it on the first day, and only his hair and beard have changed.
It is not known whether it will be immortal, but it is also painful to obtain eternal life at this time. After all, you can only live in this world, and the whole island has been turned upside down in more than a year.
And early this morning, the seventh month of the fifth year came the elephant.
All the animals before were like beginner's tutorials compared to elephants.
When the real four-ton elephant came, the big boat made by Chen Zhenbin was like a toy boat in front of the elephant.
It's over! There is still time before the high tide, but how to deal with the elephants has become a problem.
Helplessly, Chen Zhenbin thought of a temporary solution, that is, to use wood that can float on the surface of the water to drill holes, close with wooden plugs to increase buoyancy, and tie the limbs of the elephant, not to let it enter the big ship first, but to float on the sea, relying on the nose to pull the hull of the ship first over the end of the world.
Stay up for a while to upgrade the big ship until you can get the elephants in.
There was no problem with the plan, but it was clearly very difficult to implement.
Dead trees that rot quickly, and rats can easily hollow out the inside.
The high tide also came, and the hemp rope that had been prepared for the reinforcement of the big ship was used entirely to tie up the elephants.
Fortunately, the elephant cooperated very well, but when the water submerged the land and submerged the elephant's knees, the three driftwood were also fixed to the elephant.
The elephant seemed to sense something, pressing the driftwood tightly under itself and grasping the hull with its nose.
The water began to rise wildly, and Zheng Li Baijia even knelt down and began to pray to God.
It was a big test, and the two of them were more nervous than ever.
If the elephant drowned, take four tons of meat from two people as compensation? This is simply a fantasy, Chen Zhenbin and Zheng Li Baijia, the small body of less than 300 catties can't bear it at all.
Chen Zhenbin did not enter the inside of the houseboat, but stood on the bow of the boat and kept an eye on the elephant's every move.
When the water reached the appointed height, the wind was strong and the rain was pouring down, and the elephant was leaning against the driftwood but half of his body was under the water, only his nose was firmly grasping the bow of the boat, and the boat rose and fell.
Fortunately, I have a nose that allows me to breathe air and not suffocate to death.
Chen Zhenbin was also afraid that the elephant would be physically exhausted, so he dragged the elephant's trunk to death.
The elephant is very uncomfortable, and Chen Zhenbin is also very uncomfortable.
The boat almost capsized several times, and it was crumbling on the sea.
Through the glass, the aliens were cheering, excitedly raising their hands to show that they had seen a wonderful scene and felt that it was worth the money.
The elephant was physically exhausted and let go of the trunk, and Chen Zhenbin was also dragged into the water because he was holding the trunk.
Chen Zhenbin, who couldn't swim, held his breath and watched himself being lifted up by the trunk of an elephant.
Elephants saving themselves?
Chen Zhenbin was thrown onto the back of the elephant, and Chen Zhenbin looked at the elephant floating on the surface of the water in amazement.
It turns out that elephants can swim! The vines they bind make it difficult for the elephants to maintain their swimming position.
Chen Zhenbin hurriedly untied the rattan on the elephant's back, and the three driftwood broke away from the elephant.
"Are you alright?" Zheng Li Baijia shouted.
Chen Zhenbin raised his hand with difficulty and gave a thumbs up.
Zheng Libaijia stood on the boat and recalled Chen Zhenbin's words on weekdays.
After the tide receded, the elephant fell to the ground, but Chen Zhenbin collapsed and died.
Zheng Libaijia walked to Chen Zhenbin and asked Chen Zhenbin if there was any problem.
Chen Zhenbin, who had been slow for a long time, got up and drove the elephant into the sea.
The elephant is submerged in the sea, but it floats above the surface of the sea, showing one nose to breathe, and it looks comfortable.
Chen Zhenbin realized that elephants can swim! It's not tossing on its own, it's also very fond of swimming.
When the elephant came, I thought it would be the biggest trouble, but I didn't expect that the elephant didn't need help at all in the face of the apocalypse.
Not just a good swimmer, but also a good helper.
With elephants, trees can even be uprooted.
With the help of elephants, the speed of building a large boat has become faster.
Zheng Li Baijia also learned to mash trees with elephants to make pulp books, and fire-roasted wooden sticks to make simple written records for carbon.
And with this as a picture book, he began to conceive simple furniture and the main design of Noah's Ark.
When you're not working, building furniture makes the quality of life better.
……
Thirty years later, both elephants came.
In his spare time, Zheng Libaijia began to register the identities of the animals, which was a redundant step in Chen Zhenbin's opinion, but Zheng Libaijia could use it to pass the time, so let her be.
But according to Zheng Libaijia's record analysis, a theory was drawn.
It is uncertain what creatures will come in the future, but it is certain that the appearance of new creatures will be postponed continuously.
The life of the earth is limited, and Zheng Li Baijia will also speculate on many questions, such as what will happen after the animals on the earth are finished?
Chen Zhenbin just felt that this was moaning without illness, but Zheng Li Baijia would always create panic.
For example, today, Chen Zhenbin found that Zheng Li Baijia had a gloomy face for three or four days.
"What's wrong? What do you think of again? Chen Zhenbin asked.
"You're just going to think I'm insane, tired, have you ever thought about suicide?" Zheng Li Baijia asked rhetorically.
Noah's Ark has been completed for the most part, there is no difficulty, it can be completed in a few years, Chen Zhenbin's mind is now on the Ark, but he also knows one thing.
Zheng Li Baijia has lost weight, although it is much lighter than himself. But if she really commits suicide, she will also be cut off from the other party's weight according to the punishment, then she will die.
"What is wrong with thinking, wanting to commit suicide?" Chen Zhenbin tried to speak, wanting to bring back Zheng Libaijia's thoughts.
"When I first came, I wanted to live, and then I worked hard to get to this point. I've been getting more and more thoughts lately that I don't want to get on the boat at the last minute, and I don't know what's wrong with me, despair, despair of all kinds! Zheng Li Baijia did not hide his thoughts and said them.
Zheng Li Baijia was thinking about these when he was fine? Chen Zhenbin's heart was also messed up.
