154. Is it real that the Valley of the Wind exists
"There is indeed a floating island here, but the last time I visited, the stones on the island had been destroyed by the storm and were almost shattered, and after all these years, it may have completely sunk, so you had better take this route, although it will take an extra day, but the floating island in this direction is larger and stronger."
Noah's father said.
Qiao Du had already woken up the resting people, after all, this situation was a bit rare.
The current Noah's father not only does not have the illusory fog shadow as before, but also seems to be a real person, and he can also talk to Qiao Dui, even if Noah wakes up, he still exists.
"Dad?"
Noah asks that because his memory of his father is blurred, the image of his father only appears in his mother's dreams.
"I'm just a dead man, don't let that stop you."
Noah's father said.
"In the depths of the world, where memories, reality and dreams are intertwined, you may encounter some incredible things, see some creatures that you have never seen before, it is not only a spectacle, but also a danger."
"What will we encounter?"
Enya asked curiously, she looked at Noah's father, who was still a little phanthropic at the end of his fingers or something, but the rest of the body was already solid.
"Flocks of storm birds, they weave through the storm, bringing strong winds and torrential rains, flocks, pray that they don't collide head-on, even the strongest floats can't escape from the rapids."
"Snapping turtles, they don't have any malice in themselves, and even if they are brave, they can hide under it to avoid the rain, but because of its size, it won't notice the boats around it for a long time, so be careful of being smashed by it."
"Atmospheric spiders, these little bugs will hide in the storm and attach themselves to your ship, you will have a hard time seeing them, but they will slow down your float without realizing it, and you will not know until it is too late when the real storm comes."
"Snakes, these creatures are made of storms, they are huge, and they usually live by devouring thunder and lightning in thunderclouds, and it's best to turn the bow of the ship immediately when you encounter them, because that usually means that the strongest thunderstorm is coming."
"And that guy, of course, its existence has always been thought to be a legend, but it does, and in the place where the storm is at its strongest, I have only seen its shadow in the clouds, but it is enough to collapse the world."
Hearing Noah's father's story, Enya frowned slightly.
"What's that guy?"
The ignorant girl asked.
"What else could it be, the Celestial Veil Behemoth, it is the master of this storm, all you see is its dreams, don't try to wake it up, trust me."
Noah's father said with a slightly trembling voice.
"Interesting, the Sky Veil Behemoth is real?"
Ah Xin on the side yawned and asked.
At her feet, the cat seemed to come to life, and kept circling her legs, full of vigilance and curiosity about everything.
"The storm here, the floating island, the dream, are all a dream of the heavenly curtain beast, human beings just strayed into its dream, if it wakes up one day, not only the storm will dissipate, but even those floating islands will disappear."
Noah's father said in a deep voice.
Qiao Du frowned slightly.
You know, one of the optional goals of his mission is to get the storm to dissipate.
Originally, he thought that this was completely impossible to do, but now after hearing Noah's father's words, he found that he seemed to have found a way to complete the task.
If you can find the Sky Veil Behemoth in the storm and find a way to wake it up, then you will naturally be able to dissipate the storm and you will be able to break out of the thunderstorm and complete the task.
Kill more than one stone.
However, if what Noah's father said is true, it means that the rainbow island, the sacred tree, and the village will disappear with the awakening of the heavenly curtain beast, and the people who live there will suffer a catastrophe.
As a healthy, sunny and positive young man, it is naturally impossible for Qiao Duan to be so unscrupulous in order to achieve his goal.
Anyway, letting the storm dissipate is only an optional task, and it doesn't matter if you don't complete it.
"The closer you get to the storm, the more real the dream will become, until it is not far from reality, be careful not to be captured by the dream."
Noah's father admonished.
He pointed out a few routes to Noah, which bypassed the areas where the storm was strongest and some places where beasts and dangers could occur, and there were floating islands to rest on.
Of course, these lines did not lead to the end of the storm, because even Noah's father failed to successfully cross the storm, and his experience could only go so far.
"Mom, she's always missed you."
Finally, Noah said.
"I miss her too."
Noah's father sighed.
"Rest assured, at least in the midst of this storm, I can keep an eye on you."
With the first rays of light, he quickly vanished.
Dreams always come to an end.
Noah stepped out of the deck, they had already brushed the storm, and the black curtain ahead was getting closer.
The voyage continued uneventfully for another three days.
On the third day, Qiao Du saw that it was already very lively.
On the deck, Na Xin's kitten was already familiar with this place, and was pacing back and forth, like a tiger patrolling his territory.
Beyond the side of the ship, the illusory and real floating boat came and went, and it could be seen that there were crew members dressed in various era clothes on it, and they seemed to notice this and waved at Qiao Dui.
This means that even during the day, the dream continues.
Slightly higher in the airspace, colorful birds soar in the wind, and they fly in flocks to form a dense flock of birds and fly ahead.
At this time, you can see the storm that blocks the world.
Deep black clouds form an impregnable wall, which is endless upwards and downwards into a sea of clouds, with no end in sight to the left or right.
Ahead, there was only a thick black cloud where nothing could be seen, and even the sound of the storm was obscured.
This feeling is like death.
The clouds were surging at a very high speed, and even at a certain distance from the real clouds, you could feel the majestic momentum, and the colorful birds burrowed into the black clouds without any sound.
"Pack your things and we're ready to go."
Noah said.
They emptied the boat they had been dragging with supplies and untied the ropes that held it to it.
The boat was carried by the wind, and slowly headed towards the curtain of the world, and soon sank into it.
There was no sound, just like the moment of death, silent and irreversible.
"I would like to say that no matter what the outcome is, I'm glad to meet you."
Noah finally spoke, and they emptied the deck, and everyone got into the cabin, locking the hatch so that only a few small windows could peek out.
The float slowly approached the gloomy clouds.
In the end, without any regret or hesitation, the whole ship plunged headlong into it.
The world is shrouded in darkness.
