Chapter 17: The Test (Part 1)
In a bizarre dream, in a bizarre color space, in front of a bizarre staircase. Doudou sat upright on the ground, his little head down, struggling to think about how to exercise his ears.
Its two long ears stretched back and forth above its head. Beanie is a wise creature. It came up with a solution. Handstand!
I saw that it began to practice handstand with its ears. The process is difficult: its ears are very soft after all, and it is not enough to bear the weight of the whole body. At first, it bent its head and tried to use its ears to support the ground while lifting its limbs off the ground, but before it could lift its hind limbs off the ground, the ears could not support it. In addition, the ears that have used too much strength are hot and sore.
However, Doudou did not compromise with difficulties, it was already close to the first step, so it must find a way to climb it, it had a faint feeling that if it could step on these ten steps, something would happen on it, something magical about itself.
Since you can't use your ears to support your body off the ground now, take your time. Doudou began to do this: it lowered its small head, its ears supported the ground, tensed its body, and lifted its hands off the ground, supporting its body only with its feet and ears. At ground level, it resembles a small bow, and its body bends in a huge arc.
Time passed minute by minute, as if a long time had passed. During this time, Doudou endured pain and numbness again and again, and at this time it was lying on the ground resting, and just a moment ago, it obviously felt that its ears could not support it, and it fell to the ground unexpectedly.
In this way, Doudou rested for a while, and immediately got up again to exercise his ears. Gradually, the pain in the ears was replaced by a numbness. Doudou had a feeling that the strength of his ears was strengthening and becoming more powerful. Because it can hold on for a longer period of time.
Once again, the ear limit arrived, and after resting, Doudou was ready to start a new and further exercise, leaving his limbs off the ground, leaving only his ears and one foot. It chose to leave its left foot first.
If you look at Doudou's figure, you will feel very funny and strange. It touches the ground with only its right foot and two ears, its hands held flat in the air, trying to keep its balance, while its small left leg lifts up and shakes. It's a weird pose.
Several times, Doudou fell to the ground because of the imbalance of his left foot, but the hard work paid off, and after failing many times, when time passed and I don't know how much, Doudou maintained this strange standing posture smoothly for a long time. It worked. Sitting on the rough tunnel floor, Doudou gasped for breath, exhausted just now. It needs to take a break, and then challenge the last hurdle is also the most difficult one. Limbs off the ground, only with two ears to support the ground upside down! All around is a colorful brilliance, but it Doudou has no intention of appreciating, its gaze is very firm, must achieve a handstand, must exercise the ears to have strength. Only then, according to the way it thinks, can it step on the first red staircase as it wishes.
After a few moments, it got back on its feet and moved on to the hardest final part of the workout. Doudou's ears are no longer the original ears in its senses, although they are numb, but they can feel that the ears are full of great strength and strength. It assumed its original eerie position, with only its right foot on the ground.
In this balance, it suddenly lifted its right foot, but this was not easy to do, because of the sudden imbalance, it failed. These thoughts are very simple, but for Doudou, it is still difficult to practice.
In the end, it was clever enough to take a compromise. It came to the crimson first staircase, and slowly, it stood upside down, its ears supporting the ground, but its two small feet were touching the wall of the staircase. Just as we humans do a wallstand, the clever Doudou has taken this approach, convinced that as long as it persists, it has a good chance of success.
When it is upside down, the sight is also upside down, which is a major discovery of it, and it used to focus on posture and movement, but now it is quietly upside down, and Doudou has the opportunity to be pleasantly surprised to discover this. It is amazing to see that the top surface of the tunnel and the ground are reversed, and the original flat ground has replaced the top of the tunnel, and the top has become the current ground.
Because the top of the tunnel is not flat, but there are many long rocks hanging upside down, Doudou saw that the ground is now like a lot of long conical rocks growing on the ground, like a thick "big bamboo shoot", Doudou knows that there is a kind of bamboo shoot in the ink bamboo forest. And the stone statues of animals on both sides of the tunnel are also upside down, I don't know if it's an illusion, although they are upside down, but Doudou sees that they are actually still standing, still so majestic and terrifying.
Doudou is very naughty, in the process of handstanding, he occasionally quickly leaves one of his feet off the wall, and then quickly steps back, this feeling is very tense and exciting. But this is also the cleverness of Doudou, in the process, it unconsciously grasps part of the knack of balance, and finds part of the feeling of maintaining balance.
Feeling almost, Doudou bravely stepped his feet off the wall at the same time and carefully, and now it only relied on two ears to "stand" on the ground. Staggering and suddenly losing his balance, Doudou cleverly landed on all fours before he was about to fall to the ground, stabilizing his body. Try again! Doudou's eyes are determined, and his heart is a little excited, because it is on the way to success.
After trying again and again, more than 10 times in a row, at a certain moment, Doudou "stood up" with his powerful ears! This is not the short-lived "standing" of the past, but a long-lasting standing, a long "standing". After maintaining this kind of "standing" for ten minutes, Doudou fell down without strength, which is the limit of Doudou today.
After a short rest, after getting ready, Doudou confidently walked to the crimson steps, and took a deep breath, this time Doudou was going to jump to the top of the steps in one go.
Standing in front of the steps, Doudou saw the little gray beast inside the mirror-like wall giving him an encouraging look, and he straightened his ears and jumped up.
Because of the limitations of this place, it can only jump to a height of five centimeters, and with its straight body and erect ears, the body with straight legs is fifteen centimeters, and the long ears are ten centimeters. Taken together, it is exactly thirty centimeters, which is the height of the steps.
The tips of the ears reached the edge of the steps, but it was not enough! Doudou stretched his body by two centimeters as hard as he could. The two centimeters came at the right time, the ears were attached to the two centimeters on the edge of the steps, and Doudou slammed his force, and it was the ears that were exerting force, and he flew up with his body.
Beanie climbed to the top of the first step. It didn't have time to make a smug smile on its little face, and the moment it stepped on the first step, the crimson step suddenly became brighter, and the dazzling red light enveloped Doudou's body, and also spread around all the steps. As if at this moment, only red is the king of all colors, it spreads wantonly, covering the other nine steps, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and white and other colors are submerged in red and disappear, the steps of the entire platform are red, and the dazzling red light is happily shaking and jumping.
Doudou only felt a red in front of him, and it was surrounded by this powerful red, and at the same time, a scorching heat wave hit it, and there was a huge amount of heat in this red light. Streams of geothermal gas rushed into its thin body, drilling frantically along countless meridians and blood vessels in its body, wreaking havoc on Doudou's body. After a while, Doudou's body was dyed a large area of red, and the gray hair on his body also changed color, and now the tips of the hairs were shining with dazzling red.
Bursts of burning heat swirled and shook in his body, and Doudou felt a heart-wrenching pain, which was somewhat similar to the boss's situation. Doudou empathized with the torture of the boss at this moment, it turned out that the boss was so painful before. Doudou gritted his little teeth and struggled to endure the heat. It struggled to open its red, already burned, eyes, and under the bright white light from the eyes, it tried to find the location of the second staircase.
However, the light in its eyes seemed to be very powerful in the face of this powerful red light, and when it tried to illuminate the front, it was met with great resistance, and the light could not penetrate the red light in the sky. At the same time, Doudou is distressed to find that it has also found its way down this staircase, and the way is obscured.
The scorching temperature is getting stronger and stronger, burning Doudou's ** limbs, roasting its five internal organs, and drying its heart. Its mind was like a dry well, and the water in it was sucked away by the scorching red light, leaving only the bottom of the parched well. However, the endless red rays continued to pour into its body, with the scorching heat and the scythe of death. This heat will kill Doudou! Because of the scorching heat, the body seems to let out a painful wail, and send out a low cry for help. Just as Doudou dragged its tired red eyes and prepared to fall unconscious, it was already dying from the scorching heat, and suddenly, a bit of ice blue stood out at its heart.
The ice blue slowly spread to the location of Doudou's heart with a life-saving coldness, turning the entire heart into crystal blue, and then the ice blue continued to expand, spreading to Doudou's head and neck, until it covered half of Doudou's small body.
But this is at its limit, Ice Blue no longer has the extra strength to continue to spread, expelling the heat from the body, it is struggling to maintain the balance at this time, it seems that the slightest discomfort, it will be forced back by the scorching red light.
The power of the red light is incomparable to the ice blue, the balance is broken, the ice blue is constantly retreating, the red light is advancing violently, and in the blink of an eye, the ice blue only has a small piece of the heart left, maintaining the small life that Doudou is in danger.
