Chapter 262 et seq
Cheng Ziming sat on the jade boat, looking around, as if he was a child who had just gotten a fresh toy, curious and excited. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The jade boat is similar in size to an ordinary small fishing boat, with a black acanopy in the middle of the boat to shelter from the wind and rain, and the bow and stern of the boat are slightly raised, which has a kind of curvilinear beauty against the wind and waves. There were no sails and no oars on the jade boat. It's just that inside the canopy there is a table with nine grooves in a circle, each of which is about the size of a fist.
Cheng Ziming calculated a little, and knew that this must be the power system of the jade boat, and these nine grooves must be the location of the spirit stone. However, the quality of this jade boat is extraordinary, and it is spit out from the mouth of the quicksand toad, and the ordinary spirit stone must not be able to carry it. It is likely that it will need a spirit bead, or at least a top-grade spirit stone or something, to make this jade boat fly.
It's also a waste. Cheng Ziming thought secretly in his heart.
Fortunately, he just wanted a place to rest, and he didn't really want the jade boat to drive. If it doesn't move, the jade boat won't consume spirit stones.
Qi Feiyun kept watching Cheng Ziming tinkering with the jade boat with cold eyes, and after a while, he finally couldn't help it, and said with a long sigh: "Cheng Daoyou, to be serious, do you really plan to settle down here, wait until the sky is wasted and the land is old, and wait until the mountain range falls down and becomes flat?"
"Wait a minute. Cheng Ziming went under the canopy again and looked at it, then he emerged from the jade boat and said, "Pray Daoist, don't be anxious, this trial task is not in a hurry." ”
After speaking, he also sighed and said, "There is no way, we can only wait here now." The annotations on the map and the poems on the stele are all very clear. Follow the witch's prompt, this is the place to get the crab paste. As long as we wait here, we will definitely get the crab paste. ”
"But ......" Qi Feiyun crossed his arms around his chest and said in a disdainful tone: "You believe in the witch like this? The map she gave will not be fake? The stone tablet she stands here will not deliberately lead us to be fooled? She herself admits that the magic lamp is a sacred relic of the demon race, and the aliens of the demon clan have very strange personalities, and their actions are often confusing. If you want me to say, the witch's words are the most untrustworthy. ”
Wen Coral looked at Qi Feiyun hesitantly and asked, "Brother Qi, in your opinion, if you don't wait here, where are you going to find crab paste?"
Qi Feiyun said without hesitation: "Let's go to Crab City first to find out the news, where the population is concentrated, and it is a seaside city, I heard that there is also the largest seafood market in the desert area, maybe the fishermen there know where the stone crabs are fished." When we know the location of the stone crabs, we can prepare to go to sea. When the time comes, Cheng Daoyou's jade boat can just be used. ”
"This ......" Wen Sango's eyes rolled, her eyes were full of hesitation, obviously, she didn't know who to listen to.
Wen Pearl grabbed Wen Sango's arm and said coquettishly: "Sister, didn't our group say that it would be headed by Brother Cheng." Since I've listened to him all the way, I'll listen to him this time. Think so much about what to do!"
"Alas. Wen Shan sighed, glanced at Qi Feiyun apologetically, nodded and said, "In this case, our sisters still obey Brother Cheng's arrangement. ”
Qi Feiyun shook his head, but finally didn't speak.
So, a group of four people settled on the beach. Several people usually chat with the sea breeze on the beach, and sleep in the jade boat at night. When he was thirsty and hungry, he ate a spiritual fruit from the quicksand toad, and although the days were boring, they were also very leisurely.
Three months passed in a flash. The vision of heaven and earth mentioned in the verse does not even see a shadow.
Qi Feiyun gradually got impatient to wait, and his favorite thing to do every day was to walk all the way to the back of the reef with the spirit sword in his hand, the closest position to the sea, standing on the reef facing the waves, and smashing the waves that were crashing towards him with the spirit sword. In this way, he dissolves his inner boredom and uneasiness.
But how can the anxiety of being trapped in endless waiting be easily resolved by practicing swords?
Finally one day, Qi Feiyun couldn't hold back anymore, and he calmly said to Cheng Ziming: "Cheng Daoyou, you must be wrong this time." It's been three months, and I've been drawing a vertical bar on the reef every day, and now I've carved nearly 200 vertical paths, not to mention crabs, not even a single seabird. This beach is simply a dead land, and there is no life. You've been deceived by a witch. ”
Cheng Ziming was still full of confidence, he didn't seem to be worried at all, he just comforted Qi Feiyun and said, "Wait a little longer." Just wait. ”
Qi Feiyun's eyes were calm, and he shook his head and said, "I obeyed your arrangement because I felt that you were lucky and lucky. But now it seems that the good luck of Daoyou seems to have run out. Now I trust my instincts even more, the witch is simply playing with us. The direction she gave us was true and false, or half-true. The destination referred to on the map is indeed related to the search for crab paste. But the map leads us to the beach so that we can find Crab City and then go out to sea in search of the stone crabs. It's not about waiting here. And that stone tablet is used by witches to confuse us, and it is completely untrustworthy. ”
"Have you forgotten? Cheng Ziming suddenly said: "Regard the promise as the reality of the world, just like there are flowers in the garden, books on the pear blossom table, oil lamps on the floor, pure white camels on the screen, and time is passing silently." If you believe me, please take what I say as the truth of this world.
Naturally, you can also choose not to trust. But if you don't believe my promise, how can you judge the truth of this world? You can never know if there are really flowers in the garden? Is there really a book on the pear flower table? Is the wick burning slowly in the oil lamp on the floor? Embroidered on the screen, but the pure white camel symbolizes auspiciousness?
This is a passage spoken by the little girl in the dormitory of the wishing deity. What she was talking about was the prompting of the wishing gods. In this world of lights, nothing is impossible. As long as what the witch says, it is true. As long as it is a witch's promise, it will definitely be fulfilled. Just as we see in the dormitory of the wishing deity: there are flowers in the garden, books on the pear wood table, oil lamps on the floor, and camels embroidered on the screens. At that time, time was also flowing quietly.
The words of the witch are the reality of this world, and the most unquestionable absolute existence of this world.
She can extinguish the stars, she can silence the world, she can freeze the entire universe, she can make everything fall into a static silence, and she can even stop the passage of time.
What else in the world of lights could she not do?
I believe that with the power of the witch, it is much easier to flatten the mountains, dry up the waterfall, overturn the water, and bring the heavens and the earth together. ”
