Chapter 41: The Well of the Heavens (I)

So the sky was killed, and the dragon and snake rose to land.

The sun changed its color in the drifting rock debris, and the dead grass roots remained on the blue-gray edge of the rocks, looking up at the bright sky for a long time.

"But why are you doing this?" Chao Lao asked excitedly, "Don't you know that this is our base, our home?" This is no other place! ”

Among the rebellious people in the Shizhong, the one who stood in the leading position only replied:

"I remember you and the people in the stone who are older than you said that our home is here, here in the stone, simple and quiet, within reach. The hanging garden belongs to the original people here. But then, I was only thinking about one thing, do we really not deserve a share of the glorious paradise in heaven? Now, I see an opportunity to arrive. ”

Speaking of which, Chao Lao still doesn't understand the changes in the current situation.

When this group of people was on the front line, they were probably in contact with the remnants of the Alien Dragon Dynasty, and they were turned against them in groups. He asked:

"Which Elder Dragon, which pair of rebels, made a promise to you? What was promised that you would kill the Speaker in the same way that you would destroy our home? Do you know? The Celestial Defeat has already agreed with us that it will help us get a place in the Hanging Garden. ”

The leader of the rebellious Stone People only said:

"No one betrays their home, we only reject barrenness."

"Are we going to attack them?"

Withered pine asked the old man.

"There's no point in that."

Chao Lao said coldly that the stones at his feet were shaking violently.

"Do you want to fight them back into the rock formations of the Stone Man?"

The withered pine suddenly understood.

He waved his hand at the old man and motioned for the people behind him to retreat with him. It was only a waste of time to stay here any longer, and one of the people in the stone had already made a choice on their behalf.

Even if the shaking of the earth could not completely take their lives, it could have caused them to sink into the earth and not to leave, or to make their precious things disappear forever. They need to get out of this land as soon as possible. As for the National Assembly, the elders couldn't figure out how to explain it.

The canopy of heaven filled with earth was silent, and the scarce sunlight passed through the cracks in the stones, and fell on the black hair of the young man over there, and on the silver-white hair of the old man here.

For a short time, the sunlight was blocked by the sky and land, and the shadows of the well melted into the dust raised from the sky. All those who are still in the well complex can hear the primitive and miserable mountains, and a rumbling sound is everywhere. The heavens and the earth shook, and everything was shaking, which was a calm change in the world, but it caused the people on the earth to flee in all directions, and in a trance, on the verge of destruction, to witness the difference between heaven and earth.

At the base of the world, you should maintain an unchanging stillness in the dynamics. But why, at this dawn, do you dance wildly?

At that time, the carrier and the pinion machine were gliding through the air, and they were fortunate and amazed to witness the moment when the earth suddenly gave birth.

Originally, he had just wanted to move from one island to another, so that he could observe the confrontation between the groups of people standing on the surface of the land in more detail, so that he could determine if this would be an opportunity to save the young man. But he was still in mid-air, and a flock of birds suddenly blocked his way, and one pounced on his head.

Hit the metal wings, and the feathers drifted diagonally into the sky.

"Bird, what did the wind tell you?"

Zai Yan is aware of the problem.

At the same time, his suspension rope also vibrated in the air, taking on a strange wavy shape.

He turned his head sharply and looked back at the ground, only to see that the stones on the mother layer were rolling and trembling spontaneously.

Then the rocks cracked and turned towards the sky, and a huge chasm that spread from the distant world horizontally crossed the depths of the world, brutally tearing the humanoid rock layer that had existed for centuries in half.

This is the struggle before birth, like a child in the womb of Mother Earth, rolling, changing, and moving his body, slowly, slowly, until the promise of heaven and earth, and then a glance of amazement, and then constantly vibrating and spinning with the air, and the wind rises, freeing itself from the shackles of the Mother Earth's shell, as if it has sought its wings, and slowly rises along the well of the earth.

The change of gravity causes the rocks inside and outside the crevices to break and lift continuously. Rock chips and dust, following the sound of the wind, flew into the air earlier than that small piece of the world in a short time, like a pioneer guiding the way.

Zai easily dodged the large rocks, but he couldn't avoid the smoke and dust flying from the sky. The creation of each new land is accompanied by the destruction of some kind of rotational order at the bottom of the past, and the dust is the explorer of the new order, sensing the lines of gravity and exhausting all possible paths.

The canopy could only make its way to the ground with difficulty.

At that time, the large fragments that swept around him were all humanoids.

Stretch out your hands, bend over, face the sky, bow your head, or hold another stone, or one less stone of your own, everything that is due, everything.

Thousands of humanoids hugging the stone, like people about to indulge in the boundless blue sea, dance with the waves between heaven and earth.

This land is a layer of rock made up of human-shaped rocks and humanoid stones. The weak point of the humanoid stone lies precisely in the interconnected parts of different humanoids. Now, when the crack is cracked, the force of gravity is completely released, and the human form that has maintained its original form in the majority of the numbers, it flies up with the new land, and then follows the wind in the sky, and the traction between the land and the land, taking a graceful arc, like dancing in circles around the fire.

From a distance, it looks like a line of soldiers from the side, and looks like a school of fish swimming in the sea.

The gear man is out of place in the middle, and he is like a stranger in the downtown area, swimming against the current.

Zai had heard from the legends of the Qiongqiu people that the land of Qiongqiu was originally a part of the earth's surface, but it was the first time he had witnessed the formation of a new land on the surface, as if he had seen tower-shaped clouds rising from the water in the past.

More and more changes make the gears of the cripple turn faster.

"But it really should be like this......"

The lion suddenly realized

Assuming that the land will take off at any time, it is not possible, or not necessary, to construct buildings on the surface of the unstable Qiongqiu subterranean. Any structure can be torn apart by the vibration of land take-off at any time, and even if it is forcibly built, its existence is bound to be short-lived.

The Ke Underground Well complex has been around for a long time.

If it can be stabilized on the earth, and its earth will not shake and fly, then there must be some kind of local stability phenomenon, or the possibility of making the local stability possible, so that the Black Elder Dragon instructed and the Alien Dragon Dynasty cast it here.

Wait until the wrath of strife burns, no matter which side it is...... If you are ruthless enough, the first thing to open the knife is definitely this local stability that is 'not in line with the nature of Qiongqiu'.

Because it does not conform to the nature of Qiongqiu, it is broken when touched.

I don't know how they did it, maybe it was like in the story, some kind of magical suppression-like strange thing was removed, or maybe it was a natural opening of a certain energy channel in the earth.

"The only question is, if so, how did the rock formations accumulate in the past? Shouldn't the concept of rock formations not exist? Instead, it should be exposed directly to the deepest part of the earth......"

But Zai Yan only wanted to go so far.

He didn't care about that, and he just knew that his opportunity was within reach.

It took only a short time for the lion to descend to the surface. At that time, the surface of the earth was still shaking in the "original sense".

Although the gravity of the lower part of the sky island has been increasing and shifting inward with the continuous separation of the land and the earth mother, it is still showing the original downward trend.

Therefore, there is no man in the stone running to the bottom. The people in the underground buildings are running to the top.

The carrier easily relied on a suspension cable, along a pit attached to the lower part of the land.

He tossed the vibrone at frequencies, but the vibrium didn't respond at any frequency, only a few chaotic swings. Knowing that the situation was critical, Zai Yan was ruthless, so he used his original weapon to fight, and began to dig straight in the complex.

"It has to be in time."

Although there is less and less hope in his heart.

As Zai Yan had guessed, at that time, all the original buildings in the depths of the earth had collapsed.

One rock after another fell to the ground, and the crystal tubes, which had been standing in the air, were crushed into powder of glass or metal. The former utensils were buried in the gaps of the crevices, and gradually they were pulled by some kind of inward void force, and began to squeeze each other.

Terrible nature is mercilessly gazing at the end of life.

A little earlier, the earth shook for the fifth time, and it continued. The central operating room then crumbled. The cracks in the ceiling continued to widen, and then sprinkled the space below with debris of everything.

The tremors paralyzed the senses of the young man.

And the boiled egg has changed its original knowledge, and it seems to be hesitating to stay or leave.

"Aren't you leaving?"

Gu Chuan said to it:

"Or do you want to die here? What kind of death is it to be stoned? ”

Mr. Dandans didn't speak, but wandered around, as if looking for something. It rummaged through the cabinets, seeping its own liquid into the lockholes, and finally found a box with something familiar to it.

It was an object that the young man had brought with him, and it had been searched and taken away by the Black Elder Dragon and stored in a box

The paint on the ceiling turned into a sky full of debris. The rock formation behind it then fell, and a whole figure smashed into its edge, breaking its body into several pieces. It didn't realize it, piled all these things next to the crystal coffin, and then fumbled with the transistor for a long time, and finally opened the side panel of the crystal coffin.

But then, another great tremor came. Time is too late, and the earth has stretched out its butcher's knife. The continuous cracking sound overhead was a ballad of death beckoning, and the crystals in the remaining chambers completely collapsed, turning into flying debris in the sky, and then the sky sank, and the earth went up, and the whole space suddenly compressed. The structure that used to support everything no longer exists. The fracture of the main column led to the closure of the strata.

At that moment, the young man's eyes were quick, and with the last bit of his strength, he scooped Mr. Dan into the crystal coffin.

Then the terrible rock formations slammed diagonally to the ground, the whole plate pressed against a corner of the crystal coffin, and the rock formations that flew up to the land filled every nook and cranny they could reach, leaving no place for the living. The hardness of the crystal coffin specially made by the elder dragon was also irresistible, and it was severely deformed, and the side panels shattered, and the glass slag that flew out pierced the young man's hand.

But fortunately, a simple triangular area was formed, barely protecting Gu Chuan and the boiled eggs.

It's just that the world is closed in darkness, and the sunlight, moonlight, or artificial lights are all gone.

It seems to have returned to the last moment of the Netherworld, or was that moment that he never got rid of?

"You don't have to."

Mr. Balls shouted.

"Sorry...... This time it didn't make you die easily. ”

The young man smiled a little.

Mr. Dandan was stunned and ignored this person again. They all saw that all the hard-boiled eggs had been crushed under the stones. The young man didn't feel pity, but Mr. Dandan, with a sigh, muttered. After muttering for a long time, it shouted out angrily:

"Anyone?"

The sound echoed through the small triangle, but the only sound in their ears was the vibration of the stones, and the terrible sound of insects crawling in the gaps in the middle of nowhere.

It screamed for a long time, and the only result was that the triangle collapsed again, and the rock almost crushed the top of the crystal coffin, and also approached the young man's brain. The stone chips fluttering in the shaking were like ashes burned by candlelight.

At that time, the young man didn't say anything, he didn't feel the pressure from the outside world, and he only didn't want to open his eyes. His mind was gloomy. This is the state in which he has been vulnerable since he came into this world. At the same time, the perception of the outside world or the sensation of pain disappears in the experience of near death, as if one's body no longer belongs to oneself, floating on a cold road like snowflakes without roots.

It is surrounded by solid rock, and the rock is still squeezing inward. He felt rock slag coming in his mouth at some point, and he wanted to spit it out, but he couldn't, only a little saliva came out of his mouth.

Saliva flowed to the hard-boiled egg, and the hard-boiled egg stopped screaming and raised its head worriedly.

In the squeezing of the rock formation, the glowing stone was shattered, and a small piece of glowing stone fell to this side, bringing a cruel glow to the dark world. Through this glimmer of light, Mr. Dandan saw that the young man's face had a black glow, a terrifying steel blue.

The hard-boiled egg felt terrifying.

"Wake up!"

The young man only felt tired.

The expedition of the young man has gone a long way, and now, the intolerable horror is like an invisible tombcloth that has been wrapped tightly around the rest of one's life. Gu Chuan heard this shout and woke up in a trance. He thought he had to say something, or else this closed eye might be really closed. He let out a short, suffocating moan, and then gently touched Mr. Dandan's heart in Psychic Language.

"Are you okay?"

Mr. Dandan, who had been facing the young man's face, replied hurriedly,

"I'm fine! You're already bad! ”

"Stop screaming, I don't think anyone will come, right?"

What he thinks is what he says.

"Then you're wrong!" Mr. Dandan became excited, and he chirped and said, "Zaiyu and Hatsuyun will come to save you, and it is not certain whether they will save me." Just wait, wait a little longer, and they'll come. ”

"What if you can't wait......

In the netherworld, the young man felt that great progress was being made at every moment. And now, he feels that his life is being lost in a terrible battle.

Mr. Balls began to mumble:

"Nothing like that?"

The young man could not hear clearly, and he had never read the hearts of his companions. Relying on his own understanding, he said as a matter of course:

"You don't want to be saved. One more collapse, and we're going to die here. ”

It was surprised, and said in a daze:

"That's true......"

It had declared to the group that it would die, but it was a species that could be reincarnated, in other words, in the end, it was still immortal.

"Isn't that good? You're finally not going to have to be stopped by us, and you've found some kind of way to die......? ”

Mr. Dandan shuddered, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Because it feels like it really should be.

The young man went on to ask:

"If you are crushed to death by a stone here, what will you be reborn in your next life?"

Gu Chuan thought to himself at that time, if the Black Elder Dragon had read Dandan's reincarnation memory, or read his previous life memory, maybe he would convert to the Silver Elder Dragon's spiritual flesh theory on the spot. The imagination made him feel happy, and his face was a little better.

Mr. Dandan said sullenly:

"I don't know...... This should be considered an okay way to die. Then I think there should still be a species with wisdom and strength, and maybe it will become a person like you!"

"Where will it be? Will these places be so far away that they will never be reached? ”

"I don't know...... I used to feel like I was reincarnated in a different world...... Only later did I realize that I might just be walking around in a different part of the world. If I had been in Qiongqiu, I would never have imagined that there would be a netherworld and a great wilderness under the same sky, just as a man who lives in the mountains would never have imagined the boundless sea. I will say that they are all different worlds, and they must not reach each other, and there can never be any communication......"

Young people are even happier:

"If you haven't been there before, you think you can't get there. The world of human cognition is expanded because of people. ”

"Yes, yes!"

The hard-boiled egg replied loudly with a shudder.

This is in the crevice of the world's narrowest rock formation. The young man's mind was light and ethereal, quietly thinking of the infinite universe, flying through infinite time and space. He said:

"What will you do after you are reincarnated?"

Mr. Dandan froze again. Many of the questions that had previously been easy to answer were now some kind of brutal torture to it.

It says:

"I don't know."

From a very early age, it has been a stable creature, though it will always get involved in the dilemmas of different adventures. But whether it's adventure or smooth memory, it's rare. Regardless of whether reincarnation is true or not, for it with its bizarre "perception of reincarnation", most of the time it is just a passing passer. The time of the past is nothing but the key to the time of the future, and if it does not want it, it can go at any time and will go.

Only a few times will it be remembered clearly.

As it stumbled, the rock continued to squeeze inward, and the crystal coffin made a further twisting sound. With a crack, the crystal pierced into the young man's ears and arms, making a terrible faint sound. Gu Chuan didn't make a sound, he seemed to see the darkness of eternity in the silence.

Hot blood spilled from the other side of his body to this side, flowing past the side of the boiled egg.

The egg felt terror.

The hot blood that had been peculiar was now terrifyingly cold.

It muttered:

"Joan Hill is such a bad place. If only I hadn't come! It's good that you didn't come! ”

The young man spoke in amazement:

"But where are we going if we don't come?"

"Go, go......"

This made Mr. Dandan stunned again.

It can be said to go to the Great Wilderness, because the Great Wilderness is a place where they can survive normally, and they also have a little friendship with the Gear People. He can also stay in the Netherworld, where the fire still has unsolved mysteries, or he can find a little life. But none of this compares to the Sunset River they have abandoned.

It was the most beautiful world when the sun was still there. Hatsukumo may be the heir to Sunset City, and the young man has mixed up to the point of getting ahead.

The farther it thought about it, the more it remembered that during the fire, it had asked Hatsuun why he had left Sunset City. Chu Yun said to it that the Great Wilderness was vicissitudes and barren, and the Netherworld was cold and cruel. Originally, she didn't know, but now, she knew.

Then the girl began to hum a poem in a whisper, and then said something more.

What is that passage?

It's a little hard to remember.

As it thought, it called out to the young man to speak to him more, but it heard no response.

Gu Chuan's face had no expression, no fear, no expectation, and no struggle. His consciousness was sinking in the gloom, and he was gradually unable to hear the outside world.

It gently hit him with its head, so that the injured young man could move a little. He said:

"Do you want me to eat you?"

These words made the boiled egg tremble.

Indeed, it appeared in this guism for a long time. Because of a deep understanding, you will know that the only possible requirement for boiled eggs at this time is a higher "good death".

If it weren't for such a good death, it would have to suffer from captivity here, and it would be difficult to die. Being crushed to death or starved to death is just an ordinary way to die.

- But, but......

Stone chips sprinkled on its head, and its body trembled slightly, barely able to hold on. The world is dark, and darkness is the mother of death. Death's gaze was staring at the two men standing on the edge of eternity.

In its mind, countless indescribable thoughts kept wandering, telling it to keep thinking about what it wanted. Its face was pale, but it laughed heartlessly, and said with a playful smile as before:

"You guessed it!"

Then, in the same tone as they had met at the beginning, it said:

"Good Samaritan, please...... On your deathbed, before you starve to death, eat me. Otherwise, I'll have to suffer a lot here! ”

The young man's confused answer was the same as always:

"I don't eat talking stuff."

Then the silent young man did not say anything or moan at all. The universe in the infinite mind is all pitch black. The roar of life was gone, the eyes no longer reflected any of the outside world, and he was becoming something heavy and stiff.

Mr. Dandan's face was unusually calm, and it shook its body gently, leaning solemnly against the young man's parched mouth, touching his teeth. It stuck a sharp stone with the liquid and leaned it against its head.

"I don't know when, I feel like I've had a dream, friend."

It stared at the world in the darkness for a long time, as if remembering a time in the past.

No one asked it, but it replied to itself:

"In this dream, I traveled with you through Qiongqiu, came to your homeland, ascended to the blue sky, descended to the Yellow Spring, and witnessed the whole truth of the world."

It let out a crisp and innocent laugh that echoed through the dark underground. After a few moments, it smashed the stone into its soft shell. It shook without a sound, struggling to hit the young man's lips. The liquid of some kind of creature from a distant time gurgled into the mouth of eternal death.

"So, only this time, only this time, I don't know what's going on, I want to live."

It was only then that it finally remembered what Chu Yun had said.

"I think it's because of this that I suddenly discovered my love for the world. Whether it's the sunset, whether it's the wilderness or the netherworld...... The reason why man stands in the world and why man is human, the moonlight reflected by small gears, the sunset where the clouds wander in the sky, the thousand-year-old wood that has been cut down to make a ship, or the figure swaying in a water glass, the optical precision design...... Now it seems to me that Shanshan is cute. ”

Everything is beautiful, everything is the best.

At that time, the Dead or Alive was bathed in the sunshine of the fire, and the bubble-like jellyfish shone in the sky with brilliant rainbow colors.
