Chapter 139: Two Survives?
Mutated into a fish-man's life, although he has forgotten the names of 'Iron Bull' and Yuan Xiujie, he instinctively remembers that these two can be driven by him.
It's fitting that these two can go deeper into the ocean floor.
in the water.
Looking at the appearance of the fish man, 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' glanced at each other, and both showed strange expressions.
They have a thousand words to say.
However, due to the limitations of human bodies, they cannot speak underwater as they lived, so they can only swallow the doubts in their hearts back into their stomachs.
The two of them looked at the dark, empty and deep seabed, hesitated for a moment, and then sank deeper together.
…
"Huh?"
At the same time.
Fish-Man Village.
Elder Catfish looked at Cheng Sheng, who was sitting on the ground, and suddenly sighed, and said strangely: "After this person has reached a position of more than 5,000 meters. Still diving? ”
"It's more than 5,000 meters?" "It is said that after diving to a depth of 5,000 meters, indescribable fear will arise in the hearts of deep divers. This fear is irresistible and will prevent divers from continuing to dive. ”
He wondered, "So, how did this man overcome the fear in his heart and continue to dive?" ”
"Unclear"
Elder Catfish stared at Cheng Xing, and the more he looked at it, the more strange he felt.
He reached out and dipped the water stains on his living clothes, put it to his mouth and tasted it, then frowned and said, "In the sea, the salt content of the sea water will be different at different depths. ”
"The deeper the depth, the higher the salt content, and the water temperature gradually drops to freezing or even below freezing." Elder Catfish revealed the suspicion on Cheng Sheng's body: "However, the water stains on this person's body are."
"But how?" The fishman Huabei hurriedly asked.
Elder Catfish said, "It is not difficult to see from the water stains on this person's body: he should still be at a depth of about five thousand meters. ”
"But the problem is that the aura he exudes is obviously the intensity of diving to a depth of six thousand meters, or even seven thousand meters."
Hearing what the Great Elder said, the fish people around him were a little confused for a while.
The fish-man Huabei even asked: "I am at a depth of five thousand meters, but the intensity of the breath is only six or seven thousand meters, how can this be explained?" ”
"He's in this situation"
Elder Catfish thought for a moment and said, "It's like, when you are diving deeply, your body has been at a depth of five thousand meters, but your consciousness has dived to six or seven thousand meters. ”
"But the problem is that human consciousness and body are inseparable."
Elder Catfish said, "Legend has it that a monk who has broken through the deep diving period and reached a higher realm can separate his consciousness from his body. ”
"The separated consciousness is called 'divine consciousness.'"
"And this monk called Chengsheng is obviously not able to reach that realm, let alone distinguish divine consciousness."
"So how the hell did he do it, stripping consciousness out of his body?"
"Is it that you have cultivated some kind of special exercise?"
…
I don't know how long it has been.
Deep under the sea.
6 km.
Seven kilometers.
Chengsheng shared the vision of 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie', and dived to a depth of nearly two thousand meters or so in one breath.
Since he was still at a depth of 5,000 meters, the fear he felt during the deep dive did not affect him much.
He continued to direct 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' to dive.
8 km.
Nine thousand meters.
…
Inside the Fish-Man Village.
As the intensity of the aura emanating from Chengsheng continued to rise, the fish people around him were all forced to instinctively retreat behind them.
They can clearly feel that the aura of survival can arouse the fear hidden in people's hearts.
Survival seems to be in contact with some incredible being.
Among the fishmen, only Elder Catfish could barely resist this terrifying aura without being forced to retreat.
But like the other fish-men, at this moment, he also had an incredulous look in his eyes: "How is this possible! ”
"This is called Chengsheng, and it has actually dived to a depth of nine thousand meters!"
"If he continues, he will dive to the bottom of the sea for 10,000 meters, the legendary super abyss layer!"
"Super Abyssal Layer?" The fishman Huabei was stunned when he heard this.
Not only Hua Bei, but also the other fishmen also showed a confused look after hearing the words 'Super Abyss Layer'.
Elder Catfish explained, "The monks on the Xuanwu Star have all their power from the two indescribable creatures of 'Woo' and 'Buddha'. ”
"The practice of monks is actually a process of constantly accepting the pollution of 'woo' and 'Buddha' and adapting to the pollution."
"Then, different areas on the planet have different levels of pollution."
"In some areas, the pollution is so serious that even if it is just touching a star, it will bring great changes to the human body."
"Like the depths of the sea"
"In the depths of the sea, there is the heir of 'Woo', who is also the father of our deep divers, Dagon."
Elder Catfish finally said, "It is precisely because of this that when the monk transforms into a clan of deep divers, he needs to dive into the deep sea in order to obtain the power of the father god Dagon."
The fish-man Huabei realized: "So, the father of our deep diver clan, Dagon, is hidden in the 'super abyss layer' at a depth of 10,000 meters at the bottom of the sea?" ”
"Hmm."
Elder Catfish nodded and said, "But this is just a guess by the deep diving monks. After all, no one has the ability to dive to a depth of less than 10,000 meters. ”
"What about this man?" Hua Bei looked at Cheng Huo and said, "Does he have any hope of diving below 10,000 meters?" ”
"It's hard to say." Elder Catfish was also a little unsure.
…
Deep under the sea.
As 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' dived deeper and deeper, the sense of fear that inexplicably appeared in the bottom of Cheng's heart began to become stronger and stronger.
Moreover, after reaching a depth of more than 9,000 meters, it is no longer just the emotion of 'fear'.
Madness, chaos, pain
Countless negative emotions were mixed together and poured out of his heart like a tidal wave.
You can't dive any further.
At this time, there was an additional realization in Chenghuo's heart: he seemed to have attracted the attention of a certain being in the deep sea.
When he faced that existence, he only felt that he was like an ant being targeted by humans, and life and death were all in the thought of the other party.
Ants can't understand what humans are thinking.
It's like living at this moment, and I can't understand what the existence in the depths of the ocean is thinking.
That being, whether it will be pinched to death casually, or will it be curious and secretly observing the life, and the survival is unknown.
But in short, this feeling of being pinched in the hands of others makes it very uncomfortable to survive.
Out of fear of the unknown, he decisively gave up the desire to continue exploring deeper
At this moment, the 'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie', who were more than 9,000 meters in the sea area, also immediately returned to Chengsheng's side.
The two of them looked at Chengsheng, still with strange expressions.
Chengsheng knew that 'Tie Niu' and 'Yuan Xiujie' were just imaginary existences, so he didn't talk nonsense with the two.
He looked up straight up.
In the next second, I felt that the surrounding scene was rapidly distorting and changing.
When Cheng Huo came back to his senses and opened his eyes, he found that he had returned to a clearing in Fish-Man Village.
Around him, there were also a group of fish people, including Elder Catfish, and Fishman Huabei.
"You're awake!"
Seeing Cheng Huo open his eyes, Elder Catfish smiled.
This was the first time he had spoken in front of Cheng Sheng: "Welcome to our Deep Diver family!" Now you can be considered a real deep diver! ”
"Am I a deep diver?" Chengsheng was stunned when he heard this, and recalled what the fishman Huabei had said to him before.
After forgetting who he is and abandoning his past, a monk can completely transform into a fish-man.
When a monk transforms into a fishman, he can see the sea and has the desire to dive to the bottom of the sea, and only a monk who dives to the bottom of the sea can be regarded as a true 'deep diver'.
In order to adapt to the underwater environment, the body of the deep diver will be evolved, they will gain night vision, the ability to survive without relying on breathing, and the physique will be greatly strengthened.
This series of quantitative changes will eventually cause qualitative changes, and then make the body of a deep diver reach the strength of a deep diving monk.
It's like living at this moment.
in the village.
Cheng Huo got up and looked around, and finally locked his gaze on the Elder Fishman, and frowned, "You can actually speak?" ”
Elder Catfish smiled, "I didn't speak before, just to avoid arousing the jealousy of you outsiders, so as to prevent you from leaving the village early. ”
"This"
Survive for a while.
I have to say.
A fishman with unfathomable strength and the ability to devour and spit out all kinds of treasures is indeed very fearful.
Thinking of this, Cheng Sheng no longer bothered about the fact that the Elder Fishman deliberately concealed it, and only looked at Zhong Ran instead.
At this moment, Zhong Ran is still in a state of deep diving.
The corners of her clothes were constantly dripping with seawater, and her whole person was still exuding a powerful aura from time to time, which was unique to a monk in the deep diving period.
"This fishman" saw Chengsheng staring at Zhong Ran, and the expression of the 'Iron Bull' on the side became even more strange: "Could this fishman be Zhong Ran?" ”
Cheng Sheng glanced at the 'Iron Bull' and did not speak.
The latter continued: "Chengsheng, are you alright? Do you remember who I am? ”
Chengsheng's face was confused.
'Iron Bull' said, "Then do you remember who you are?" ”
"Who am I?"
Chengsheng fell into contemplation again.
in the village.
Seeing that Chengsheng seemed to be muttering to himself, saying the three words 'who am I', the catfish elder on the side said: "After the monk becomes a deep diver, although he will gain great strength because of deep diving, he will also forget most of the memories in his life. ”
"This is the curse of our Fish-Man Village."
"Or rather, it's the price you have to pay before you can gain power."
Elder Catfish explained why: "We deep divers are a race born to serve the supreme great being, 'Woohoo'. ”
"The Deep Divers are descended from the Fish-Man's father, Dagon, the son of Woo."
"And Dagon is hiding in the deep sea."
"That's why monks need to dive into the deep sea when they become deep divers."
"God the Father?" Cheng Huo said thoughtfully: "So the fear I felt when I dived was actually from the Father God? ”
"Not bad!"
Elder Catfish said, "Father Dagon has not only given us the power of the Deep Diver race, but also given us the trait of immortality. ”
"However, the brain capacity of intelligent life is limited."
"So in order to live longer, in order not to let the memories generated by the long years burst our brains, we deep divers will forget some of the memories of the past almost every once in a while."
"Therefore, to forget the past is the price of eternal life!"
plausible
Hearing what Elder Catfish said, Cheng Huo showed a look of sudden realization and was silent.
"Broken, broken, broken!"
Just when Chengsheng was silent, the 'Tie Niu' and 'Yuan Xiujie' on the side found that the two of them were disappearing little by little.
The two of them were born out of living memories.
At this moment, they have accepted the premise that 'memories will be forgotten', so they naturally have no reason to exist.
'Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' are two consciousnesses that are independent of survival.
Even if it is an independent consciousness, it must not want to die.
At that moment, 'Iron Bull' hurriedly said: "Have you forgotten to survive?" The two of us grew up in Shenshu Village since we were children, and you used to call me Brother Tie Niu often, as well as the village chief and Aunt Wang, the people in Shenshu Village, have you forgotten? ”
'Yuan Xiujie' was not to be outdone: "Have you forgotten your identity as a traverser?" ”
"You should remember the fried noodles I sold at a stall in Ruyun City, right? Does the taste of fried noodles remind you of the fried rice, stir-fried vegetables and barbecue you ate in the night market before you crossed over? ”
"Have you really forgotten about that world of drunken money?"
"I" looked thoughtful: "I seem to remember a little." ”
"It's just that I have a doubt in my mind right now."
Cheng Sheng looked at 'Tie Niu' and 'Yuan Xiujie', and frowned: "Which of you two is telling the truth?" ”
"Am I from the Sacred Tree Village, or am I a time-traveler from Earth?"
"This."' Iron Bull' and 'Yuan Xiujie' glanced at each other.
The two said in unison: "Of course I'm real!" ”
"You're all real?" Chengsheng was stunned when he heard this.
Fish-Man Village.
At the moment when Chengsheng was stunned, there was an inexplicable extra person next to him, another 'Chengsheng' who looked exactly like him.
This is not the body of a fish-man, but the body of a human.
This living being is not only visible, but also exudes from time to time a powerful aura that is unique to monks in the deep diving period.
From this breath, it can be seen that this life is not generated by an illusion, nor is it summoned by some secret method.
This is a living person.
"What's going on?"
Seeing that there was another life out of thin air beside him, Elder Catfish immediately retreated backwards like an electric shock, and his movements were so swift that it was in stark contrast to his fat and bloated body.
"Two survived??" The fish-man Huabei looked at the other person and was completely dumbfounded.
Except for the fish-man flower shell, the rest of the fish-people also showed a frightened expression.
For a while, all the eyes of the fishmen were focused on the living body of a human being.
