164. Give your heart
Strange to say, as soon as the originally lifelike beating heart left her body, it became an exquisite wood carving.
This wood carving is like a fruit, wrapped by leaves on the outside, and placed in Qiao Dui's palm, a small one, there is an urge that people can't help but want to coil it smooth.
Yes, that's right, it's walnuts.
"Is this a real heart or a false heart?"
Knowing Ah Xin's immortality and his extraordinary ability to bring the dead back to life, he couldn't help but make up some plots such as relying on this walnut to give up himself after Ah Xin died.
"You've seen it all, are you still doubting the truth?"
Ah Xin scoffed at Qiao Dui's question, paused, and then opened his mouth to explain.
"It's a technique I've learned before, which can extract my own memories and craft them into all sorts of contaminated transcendent objects."
"So which memory is this?"
Qiao Du didn't ask for technical details, thinking that Ah Xin might not tell him, so he was curious about the memories in this "walnut".
"It's not a memory worth mentioning, if I really want to say it, it's from when I saw some unspeakable monsters, the pollution level is very high, and it should be able to sell for a good price."
She said as if she was discussing the price of the pork she bought this morning.
"You're weird."
Qiao Du thanked him, and he immediately opened his chest and stuffed the "walnut" into his body.
"It's not going to suddenly turn into a heart again, is it?"
He also asked suspiciously.
"Don't worry."
Ah Xin smiled.
"I can't put it down, it's all in my chest."
Qiao Du touched the heavy chest and abdomen, and now there was not only flying fish meat in it, but also Ah Xin's heart, which was stuffed to the brim.
"Do you think we can get out?"
He asked again, looking back into the cabin.
"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll let you out, after all, I'm still waiting to die."
Ah Xin said very open-mindedly, and at the same time thought about it and continued to speak.
"It's just that this is not as simple as a simple exploration story, and that Sky Veil Behemoth may not be the biggest obstacle here."
"You see that, too?"
Qiao Du could vaguely realize that although the huge monster that destroyed their ship last time was powerful, it was not a real Heavenly Veil Beast, and there was a stronger existence hidden in this storm.
"The two young men thought that we were all dreams, but in fact, the boat we were on was indeed a dream that would disappear once we left the storm, so we had to fix the float boat placed there on the next floating island, so that we wouldn't crash after leaving the storm."
Ah Xin said lightly, although she didn't talk much, she actually saw everything very thoroughly.
"Moreover, the most dangerous thing should be the next part of the road, I feel that this danger is not only for encountering monsters, but also for the mind and spirit, so to speak, there will be very serious pollution waiting for us."
For the explorers who can come here, they should have experienced the physical danger of the Storm Veil more or less, and they will not be so easy to shipwreck, but in the face of some powerful pollution, ordinary humans have no place to fight back, and they have been eroded without knowing it.
It can be said that after they entered the Storm Veil, until here, it was a category that ordinary people could set foot in, and if they continued to move forward, only the Chosen One could bear it.
Following.
I don't know if it's Qiao Dui's illusion, the wind and rain seem to be a little lighter.
The float set sail again, and they sailed for about three days before arriving at a huge floating island.
At a cursory glance, this island is similar in size to Hongdao, and there are architectural ruins on it, I don't know if it's because the wind and rain here are slightly less, the ruins have not been weathered too badly, and you can vaguely peek into the architectural style, like some kind of temple or temple.
There was no space to moor floats underneath the island, only on the island, among the mountains, there were some small canyons that could be seen when you got closer, large enough to accommodate floatboats, and, between the canyons, among the ruins of buildings, there was a tattered, mossy ship docked.
After docking into the canyon, Noah jumped off the ship first, this ship has been around for a certain year, you can see that some of the ship's sides are damaged, and the cabin is also a mess, fortunately, the keel structure of the hull is intact, if you don't dislike the leakage, you don't even need to fill the leak.
After all, this is sailing in the wind, and there are no worries about entering the water.
The ruins of the buildings sheltered from the wind and rain, and the cabins were dry, free of insects, microorganisms, not even dust, just as they had been when it had been abandoned.
Noah took two steps inside, and suddenly, he felt a man sitting in the boat.
In the dim light, with only the occasional lightning reflecting off the walls of the ruins, a man sat in the corner, as if guarding the ship, blocking Noah's path.
He chuckled inwardly.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning fell, right in the middle of the island.
Under the light, Noah realized that it was a corpse.
The corpse was only slightly decomposed, and it looked like it had just died, and he had severe wounds in his abdomen, and even the internal organs could be seen in it.
"The ship here was left over from at least 20 years ago, and it is still in such good condition"
Noah sighed, leaning down to check on the body.
He found that the corpse was holding a cloud map in his hand.
Pinching the corner of the cloud map, Noah confirmed that the thing would not shatter with a single tear, and he tried to pull it out.
Just as the cloud map was about to be completely pulled out, Noah suddenly felt a force coming from the cloud map.
He subconsciously raised his eyes and found that the corpse was staring at him with its eyes open, and its body was still leaning forward, with a hideous face.
"You can't escape, you can't escape!"
In the corpse's throat, the air currents outlined hoarse words.
Noah panicked in his heart, and immediately kicked over, the corpse did not have human strength, and was directly kicked to the ground, and the cloud map in his hand was also taken by Noah.
"Wow, you're robbing a dead person!"
Later, when Qiao Duan saw this, she couldn't help but complain.
"How did he come back to life?"
Noah was shocked when he saw Twilight leaning over and crouching down in front of the dead man.
"Hello, I'm Qiao Dui, I'm embarrassed that my friend kicked you just now, I want to ask, do you know how to leave the storm?"
Qiao Du asked politely.
"You can't escape, you can't escape, the curse will always be there, forever!"
The corpse was like a repeater, repeating some riddle-like words, and then soon, his legs straightened, and the whole person lost his movement.
Seeing this, Qiao Twilight quickly stood up and hid behind Noah.
"I didn't touch him, he died on his own, you see."
He immediately threw the pot.
