Chapter Seventy-Two: Let's Go!
Some people say that if you spend a long time with someone, you will also get some habits of that person, even if you don't know it.
At this time, Taylor was sitting by the porthole of the Dixue VIP cabin, supporting his pretty chin with his thumb, covering his lips with his index finger, looking out of the window in a daze, the standard "Dixue thinking posture".
It's just that when Di Xue made this pose, it meant that he was thinking about something, and Taylor was just in a daze at this time.
Di Xue on the side looked at the book in his hand, and seemed to be reading it very seriously, but in fact, he didn't read much content at all in the more than half an hour after the meal.
Because the afterglow of the corner of his eyes always fell on her soft and delicate side face unconsciously, and some couldn't help but want to do something to that delicate face, such as pinching and kissing......
Lonely men and widows, living in the same room, it is not unheard of, but it was before, and now it is now, Di Xue is a normal man, and he has just made a breakthrough in his relationship with Taylor, and now in this kind of environment, to say that his mind is not a little charming, he himself does not believe it.
Taylor didn't feel anything, she was already used to being alone with Di Xue, Di Xue liked to read, and when he was reading, she was in a daze when she had nothing to do.
After getting along for a long time, they have already had a tacit understanding with each other, she is used to him reading quietly, and he is used to her being quietly in a daze.
I don't know if this tacit understanding is a good thing or a bad thing for Di Xue, but after all, Taylor's martial arts cultivation is there, and she has already felt that Di Xue doesn't seem to be as focused as he used to be when he reads books today, and he glances at her from time to time.
Taylor raised his head, looked at Di Xue and wondered, "What's wrong?"
"Ahem...... It's nothing. β
"Aren't the books good?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Because you're always looking at me. β
Di Xue was choked by Taylor's words, and she didn't know how to answer for a while, and even two pink balls appeared on her handsome cheeks.
Seeing this, Taylor was playful for a while, and he reached out and poked Di Xue's face, tilted his head and asked, "Why are you blushing?"
Di Xue looked at her with a strange face, and after a long time, she said, "Because ...... You are better than books. β
It is said that when he was young, he was also a generation of style/flow figures, although Di Xue had never been in love, but in some ways it seems that he also inherited his father's talent, and one sentence made Taylor, who originally asked Di Xue why he was blushing, also blushed.
Taylor lowered his head and said no more, but the atmosphere in the room was a little more ambiguous.
There was a hint of tenderness in Di Xue's eyes, and she reached out and touched Taylor's face dotingly.
Feeling the smooth delicate skin of her fingertips and the slightly hot temperature, Di Xue, who had bad intentions, was about to make further moves, but was abruptly interrupted by a sudden change.
"Boom ......"
There was a sudden loud bang outside the porthole! The airship shook violently with the skyrocketing firelight!
In the violent swaying, the contents of the cabin were scattered on the ground, and Dexue and Taylor clung to the handrail so that they were not thrown out, and the shaking lasted for half a minute before stopping.
The dark night suddenly brightened, and it was because the airship airbags were burning!
Di Xue saw the sky-high fire through the porthole, and a trace of essence flashed in her eyes.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
Uncle Xu, who was guarding the door, and the royal guards immediately rushed in, and Xu Bo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Di Xue and Taylor were intact.
But after a while, Uncle Xu became nervous again, because everyone present felt it...... The airship is descending.
Di Xue's expression was very calm, and she didn't feel panicked by the sudden accident, and glanced at Taylor and Xu Bo, Di Xue said in a deep voice: "Let's go, go to the cab and see what happened." β
As soon as he got up and took a step, there was another loud bang outside the porthole, but fortunately, Taylor was quick to hold Di Xue in time, so that he was not thrown away in the violent shaking that followed.
Captain Richard also rushed over after the second loud bang, and after seeing that everyone was fine, Captain Richard breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Highness, the airship may have been attacked, please Your Highness do not leave the VIP cabin, I will immediately let the personal guards gather outside the VIP cabin to protect Your Highness!"
"Nope. Di Xue undoubtedly denied Captain Richard's arrangement: "I, Taylor and Uncle Xu all went to the wheelhouse, if the airship was attacked, then the attacker must know where the VIP cabin was, and the wheelhouse must be one of the important targets of the attacker, it doesn't matter if the VIP cabin is abandoned, but the wheelhouse cannot be lost, so we all go to the wheelhouse and concentrate on guarding a little, Captain Richard, you gather all the guards outside the wheelhouse, and the staff in the airship except for the pilots are evacuated to the ordinary cabin first." β
Captain Richard approved of Di Xue's decision after a turn of thought, if the attacker took control of the wheelhouse, then it would be equivalent to mastering the control of the entire airship, and the consequences would ...... Unthinkable.
Captain Richard immediately led the order to leave, and Di Xue and Taylor also walked towards the cab under the protection of Xu Bo and the personal guards.
The distance between the VIP cabin and the wheelhouse where Di Xue was located was not far, but in this short distance of more than 20 meters, two loud noises were heard outside the airship one after another, and the fire on the airship airbag burned through the porthole on the side of the walkway, dyeing the night sky and the airship scarlet.
And Di Xue also felt that the speed of the airship descending was a little faster, and even the airship was already difficult to maintain balance and tilt.
Inside the wheelhouse, the captain of the airship was already flushed and sweating profusely...... He knew that his airship was carrying a great man right now, and if something happened to that person on his airship, even if he could escape here, there would probably be no good end.
When Di Xue walked into the wheelhouse, the captain's legs trembled, and he knelt down directly.
Di Xue looked at the captain and frowned and said, "Captain, do you know what the loud noise was just now, and why did the airbag burn?"
The captain trembled and said, "Huh...... Tell you, there was an explosion on the airbag and it's leaking, we ...... is falling downward. β
Several of the staff members in charge of driving the airship in the huge cab were also panicked, if it weren't for the guards guarding the door, I'm afraid these staff would have escaped long ago.
Di Xue looked at the chaotic scene in front of her and the kneeling captain, frowned and shouted, "Be quiet! Don't panic!"
His shout was accompanied by a hint of mental coercion with magic, and the staff in the cab immediately calmed down a little and hurriedly returned to their respective jobs.
Di Xue said in a deep voice: "Captain, you get up first, is there a way to let the airship slow down its falling speed?" Just a short moment, Di Xue already felt that the airship was falling faster and faster, and the airship airbag had been blown up, if the airbag was allowed to leak, then this airship would only have one crash.
The captain hurriedly stood up and said anxiously: "Hurry up and open the alchemy magic array and rush into the suspended gas for the spare airbag!"
The staff fiddled with the magic path instrument in front of him, and said with sweat: "Report to the captain, the alchemy magic array has malfunctioned......
Captain: "Then activate the anti-gravity magic array!"
Staff: "Report to captain, the anti-gravity magic array is malfunctioning......"
Captain: "The Wind System Slowly Descends Magic Array......"
Staff: "Report to the captain, the wind system slowing down magic array is out of order......"
The captain couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth: "Then you sue me sΓΉ/what didn't break down?!"
Staff: "Report to the captain, the magic temperature control system is working well ^_^!"
Everyone: "......"
The poor captain didn't take a breath and fainted.
Di Xue looked at the fainting captain and felt that his eyes were dark, he sighed helplessly, turned his head to a staff member and said, "Is the airship equipped with a parachute?"
With the combustion of the airbag, the leakage of suspended helium in the airbag is getting worse and worse, and the speed of the airship descent is getting faster and faster, and it seems that the only way to give up the airship parachute jump is to give up.
The staff member who was asked said, "Yes...... Yes, the airship's warehouse is equipped with three hundred parachutes. β
Just as Di Xue breathed a sigh of relief, Captain Richard suddenly rushed into the cab, carrying a dozen umbrella bags in his hands.
Captain Richard's face was a little scorched, and the cloak behind him was also scorched in several places, and he said anxiously: "Your Highness, the airship warehouse is on fire, and the parachutes are burned, this is the last to be rescued, Your Highness, parachute away!"
With a red eye, Captain Richard stuffed a parachute bag into Di Xue's arms.
Inside the cab, the royal guards looked as usual, as if they didn't care about the fact that there were only a dozen parachutes left.
But the faces of those staff members were all white, and they all stared at the parachute in Captain Richard's hand with desperate eyes, they knew that they were just some ordinary civilians, and the remaining dozen or so parachutes were probably not their turn......
Di Xue looked at the parachute in her hand and the desperate eyes of those staff, stunned in place, hesitated in her heart, and a trace of unbearability flashed on her face.
Because of his status, he is qualified to escape, but these staff members ......
Captain Richard anxiously urged Di Xue, but Di Xue's steps were a little hesitant, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Xu Bo, who was standing on the side, squinted at the look on Di Xue's face, he knew Di Xue very well, he knew what Di Xue was hesitating about, Xu Bo suddenly stepped forward and said to everyone: "Hurry up when you look for something." β
Everyone was wondering about Uncle Xu's words, only to see Uncle Xu suddenly pull out the long sword on his waist and wave it, and the dark fighting spirit rushed out, smashing the alchemy glass on the side of the cab!
Then Uncle Xu picked up Di Xue and threw Di Xue out......
Di Xue is a magician, and he didn't have time to react before Xu Bo's martial arts master's speed, so he grabbed a parachute and was thrown out of the airship by Xu Bo.
The cold wind from high above the boat poured into the wheelhouse, and everyone looked at Xu Bo messily in the wind.
Under the action of high-altitude wind pressure, the breach that was split by Xu Bo produced a strong suction, and Xu Bo, Taylor and Richard were not affected, and the guards were also well-trained and martial arts people, and they quickly found the grip point and were not sucked away.
But the staff were different, and after holding on for a while, they screamed and were sucked out of the airship.
But Xu Bo didn't even look at the staff who were swept away by the wind, he didn't grab anything at all, but his feet seemed to be rooted on the floor and didn't move.
I saw him snatch a parachute bag from Captain Richard's hand, throw it into Taylor's arms, and say to Taylor: "Go and protect Your Highness." β
Then Uncle Xu smiled at Taylor, and Taylor was also thrown out by Uncle Xu......
(Anyway, when I wrote the airship yesterday, I suddenly found a small bug in the setting of the previous magic flying saucer, in Chapter 15, it has been modified, and I'm embarrassed to say what a bug...... For this setting, I checked Du Niang in the middle of the night, and my eyes were dark, and I still didn't understand it>
