Chapter 140: Repertoire: Approaching the Ocean
Wan Yi found a good place to fish, took advantage of the afternoon sun, lay down, and went to the theater.
Familiar set, but it's not Rhett who is here today, but Ben Human.
"Oh? Coming so early today? The benevolent man smiled.
"You're here today, and I've seen you more often lately." Wan Yidao.
"After all, after you escaped, your complexion has improved, and with the addition of Red, this place has become much more lively, and there is more interest." This is how the benevolent man explains.
Wan Yi came directly to the script stage, picked up Luo Xi's script and opened it, and then came to sit down beside Liangdao.
"I've been paying a lot of attention to Roshi's script lately."
Wan Yi nodded: "The sea monster is coming, although it has been determined that there are many similarities, but it is still impossible to determine whether Luo Xi is in the sea monster boundary." ”
This is what Wan Yi has always wanted to be sure.
This result cannot be said to be unimportant to Wan.
Because if it is determined that Roshi is in this line, then some other speculations will also have a result.
For example, if people in the play exist in a certain corner of the world, in a certain boundary......
The stage changes and the repertoire resumes.
……
As soon as he came up, it was Roshi who opened his eyes in his sleep.
He rubbed his eyes a little confused, then went to the bucket in the corner of the room, took some water and splashed it on his face to sober himself up.
After doing this, he glanced out the window, it was dark. Roshi shook his head, sat down in the room at the improvised wooden table he had built from the materials he had gathered from the village craftsmen, and began to write.
I thought it would be another scene that was quickly skipped, but I didn't expect that there was a monologue by Roshi in the theater.
"I woke up early again, and my restless sleep filled every cold night. Although it is not yet dawn, based on my experience of coming to this village and the world for more than two years, it will be a cloudy day today. ”
"The world rarely sees sunlight, and the air is inseparable from the disgusting smell of the sea, damp and disgusting. Luckily, I'm used to it, and I'm comfortable with it, but I still hate it. I don't know how I used to feel about the ocean, but there is no doubt that I would definitely answer one word now: disgust. ”
"My dream, it was strange, neither the mountain nor Mahad could tell. They said it was supposed to be a call from the blood that flowed in my body, the ocean, and I needed to resist it. However, I know that's far from all. ”
"I saw more in my dreams. Towering buildings, concrete buildings, steel beasts speeding on the roads, islands floating in the air...... Many, many, those have nothing to do with the ocean, more like from myself, it's incomprehensible. ”
"I sometimes feel like I'm a different version of myself, they're doing a lot of different things, they're going through different experiences. Occasionally, I can empathize with them. It was a terrible feeling, and it woke me up all at once. ”
"Lately, the sounds from the ocean have become stronger, and the broken images have become more and more, and I feel that something is approaching. It's going to be a disaster, or it's an opportunity. ”
Roshi's pen paused for a moment, then left one last stroke: "The opportunity to find your true self." ”
When he was done, he sorted out the somewhat scattered pamphlets in front of him, sorted them out, and put them under the pillow of the bed.
Then he went to the table, and pulled the big anchor out from the foot of the table.
Carefully carrying the anchor so as not to break the contents of the house, he went out the door.
There is basically no accurate time here, and the sky is cloudy, so the sense of time will be seriously blurred.
More than two years later, Roshi feels like he's living a more and more muddy life.
No one in the village seems to have gotten up yet.
He scoffed.
Although he didn't know why, he felt that people in this kind of village should have gotten up very early, an inexplicable impression from one of his broken dreams.
But most of the time Roshi is the first to get up here.
Other than that, it's Grandpa Mahad.
Seeing that there was no one, Roch hurriedly touched the nearby coast.
I'm afraid of being seen and then being directly asked to work.
"Good morning, nasty sea." Coming to the beach, he shouted at the black sea.
The only thing that responds to it is the consistent sound of the tide.
A good day starts with checking the traps on the coast.
Most of these traps were made by Mahad, and there were only four people in the entire village who really dared to hunt those strange fish alone.
Roshi, Mountain, Mahad, and a stunned young man that Roshi didn't want to mention.
Mahad was a foreigner, but he came to the village when the sea monster came ashore and saved the village by killing all the sea monsters that came ashore, so everyone respected him very much.
Shan was one of the children who was rescued by Mahad when Mahad first came, and he has been studying with Mahad and has now grown up and become a pillar of the village.
Everyone felt that Mahad was getting old and that one day he would take over the duties of Mr. Mahad and become the new protector of the village.
And Luo Xi, in the past two years, it is estimated that the reputation of the villagers will be good.
The protector is almost enough, and the people in the village are so simple and real.
The people in the village didn't know where Mahad came from, but he poked around, only to find out that Mahad was covered in blood when he came to the village, and that he had several corpses in the same uniform as him.
In the end, the bodies were buried by him on a mountain far from the sea.
Rohi guessed that Mahad was probably once part of some organized force, and that the corpses were his teammates.
As for why people survived and didn't go back to work, there are many ways to do this, and Luo Xi didn't think about it.
None of the traps were triggered, there was no sign of a sea monster coming ashore, and everything was normal.
This is the normal case.
The bigger role of the trap is actually a warning, just like when Roshi first came, soon after the trap was triggered, the villagers came.
Sea monsters are not idle to run ashore, except periodically when the tide is particularly fierce, their ferocity will also be stimulated, and then form a "wave" to wash ashore.
That's when Roshi is busier.
On weekdays, if you don't take the initiative to look for it, it's still a bit difficult to see the sea monster.
Of course, the flow of blood into the sea is another matter.
After making sure that there was nothing wrong on the shore, he walked along the reef, stepping into the water with his boots on his feet, and the ocean in front of him, but he did not stop, but continued to move on.
The icy waters gave him a sense of comfort in his mother's arms, as if he should have lived in the sea rather than on land.
But he quickly recovered from this constant feeling.
Mother, the word was just as foreign to him.
There is even an indescribable resistance in the shattered dream.
Without thinking about it, he dived into the water and wandered in the shallow water.
Although he didn't paddle deliberately, and even his clothes and equipment were quite heavy, he could easily float in the sea and swim quickly in all directions.
This was discovered when he accidentally fell into the sea while fighting against the siege of multiple sea monsters in a wave.
On that occasion, Roshi showed an amazing talent in fighting in the sea.
However, when he stained the sea with the blood of the sea monster and walked ashore, he noticed that the eyes of Mahad and the mountain were a little complicated.
Even when he asked, they avoided answering.
They just let him wander less in the water.
He obeyed, but every few days, he would still take advantage of this ability to clean up the sea monsters roaming along the coast and reduce the pressure on the next wave.
He still has no sense of belonging to the village, but Shan is a good friend, and Mahad is a respectful teacher.
Mahad is getting older, and his form can be said to be a precipitous decline compared to two years ago.
Relieving the pressure of the wave might allow the eccentric old man to live a few more years.
A few of the most common quadruped monsters swam past their eyes, their cloudy eyeballs glancing at Roshi, and then swimming side by side with him.
This is also a feature of Roshi's discovery.
If he is in the sea and does not make any offensive moves, most of the sea monsters will not be aggressive towards him.
Taking this opportunity, he also went to observe the nearby sea monsters and record some ecology, which was regarded as leisure entertainment.
Unfortunately, this calm is quickly broken.
He waved the anchor casually.
There was still no resistance underwater, and he even felt smoother, and the impression in his mind told him that it was counterintuitive, but there was another feeling that told him not to care, because there must be more outrageous things in the world.
The blade of the anchor crown easily severed several four-legged monsters.
The sea monsters in the sea are tenacious, and the injuries are fatal on land, but in the water, they will be active for at least three hours, the result of Roshi's observation and estimate.
He swung the anchor again, unloading the fish monster into eight pieces.
The flesh was still wriggling, but there was no longer a threat.
The blood of the sea monster spreads.
Roshi guessed that the spread of their blood through the sea should send some kind of message to the sea monsters around them, presumably similar to a warning.
That's why every time he kills the first sea monster, the subsequent nearby sea monsters will judge it as an enemy.
The time limit for this information varies depending on the type of sea monster.
He reached out and stroked the blood spreading in the sea, and goosebumps appeared on his body, but they quickly faded away.
He can also receive the information in it to some extent.
But it's far slower than a normal sea monster, and you don't feel it at all when you're farther away.
I don't know when I could feel it, and Roshi can't remember it exactly.
Perhaps he is transforming into a monster resembling a sea monster.
But whatever, the cry of the ocean was far less confusing than the shattered dreams.
He continued to swim, but there was something strange.
"The sea monster is a little small, because I didn't get up from bed last time, so I shouldn't have been cleaning it up for about a week, and the sea monster here hasn't grown back yet?" Those things have always struck him as almost endless.
After swimming a few laps along the coast and making sure that there was nothing else to gain, he went back.
Carrying the anchor ashore, the sea breeze made him feel a little cool.
The body that has regained its heaviness is also slightly uncomfortable.
When he looked, he saw a figure standing on the shore.
It was a well-developed young man with bronzed skin, a muscular posture, and sharp muscles, but he looked at Roshi with a deep hostility in his eyes.
"Tulrot, good morning." Roshi said hello.
"You're in the sea again."
Hearing the other party's tone, Luo Xi had long been used to it, and didn't look at him again: "I'm hunting, not playing." ”
"Who knows, we don't know what you're doing in the sea." The young man named Tulo snorted.
"Do you want to send this to you?" Roshi directly took out a fish head.
Toure was startled, but quickly calmed down: "Is that all?" A sea monster makes you complacent, you stranger is not qualified to be the hunter of the village! ”
"I didn't want to do it at first, you go to Mahad and Shan to lose your temper." Roshi boredly retrieved the fish's head, then swept past him towards the village.
As the sky got brighter, it gradually began to gain popularity.
Roshi knew that the easiest part of the day was done, and then some dirty work was done.
