In this world, there was a lot of nonsense that was correct.
For example, tree roots grew from trees. If there were tree roots, there would be a tree.
Lin Sanjiu straightened her back and looked into the distance. There were only a few dilapidated buildings and weeds in the boundless wilderness.
If the "white radishes" that covered a few hundred kilometers were tree roots, then —
"Where are the trees?"
Just as this question surfaced in Lin Sanjiu's mind, Gong Daoyi, who was thousands of kilometers away, asked the same question softly. There was a rare look of confusion on his slightly effeminate face, which made him look like a child.
Hearing this question, the figure standing not far from him slowly turned around.
The building that Gong Daoyi was in had lost half of its height over the years, and half of its walls had collapsed. Right now, only the space that the two of them were standing on could still be considered a complete room.
The moonlight that shone through the window illuminated her gentle and calm eyes. Although she looked like she was only in her thirties, the muscles under the corners of her eyes would still bend with her every frown and smile, forming a few shallow wrinkles.
When the thin wrinkles formed on her red lips, it gave her a strange charm.
"It's right here." The unfamiliar woman pointed at the ground beneath her feet and said with a smile.
After interacting with this woman for a while, Gong Daoyi had a basic understanding of her personality. When he encountered such an ambiguous answer, no matter how hard he tried to get to the bottom of it, she would not say a word.
After a pause, he decided to change the topic.
"I didn't expect you to have such an identity …" Gong Daoyi's tone softened as he uttered the second half of his sentence through his beautifully shaped lips. "Should I call you … Nuwa?"
In the darkness of the night, Nuwa nodded and said to him with an approving smile, "This is my true self. I didn't expect to meet someone who shares the same ideals as me in this world … From a certain perspective, you can be considered my junior, right? "
Gong Daoyi furrowed his brows slightly under the cover of his fringe. Rather than saying he was disgusted, it was more like he was confused.
"No … I want to. I'm not exactly like you. "His words sounded soft and vague, but they were pleasant to the ear. "I'm an optimist."
He rejected it so quickly, but Nuwa was not angry. She only smiled indulgently and looked into Gong Daoyi's eyes. It was as if she was looking at a child who was still trying to find his way. The two of them stood there quietly for a while. Suddenly, she took out a piece of paper and handed it to him.
"Didn't you want this? Here you go." The piece of paper in her hand was very thick, and the inlaid dark patterns flickered with a faint light. The large "VISA" word on the paper was particularly eye-catching. It was a visa. "She's an important target for me to observe. You can't mess around when you're there."
"Of course not." Gong Daoyi reached out to take it and looked down at it. He saw "Agricultural Farm" written on the destination column. He couldn't help but tilt his head and ask, "The visa you gave her was also for this destination?"
"Yes, I only have two visas for this destination."
Gong Dao nodded to express his gratitude and kept the visa. He couldn't help but sigh. "You can forcefully awaken the ability of a Consular Officer. It's really unimaginable. "
Nuwa smiled faintly and didn't explain. She just turned her gaze to the land in the distance. After looking for a while, her eyes suddenly trembled. She was a little surprised. "It's spreading so fast!"
"What?"
"Just now, the growth rate of the tree roots has doubled. It seems that another growth node has been crossed. Soon, the land on this planet will be covered with tree roots … I have to go. " Nuwa's voice sounded a little moved. "In the future, less than one out of ten posthumans will survive … The road of humans. As expected, the road is getting narrower. "
Gong Daoyi opened his mouth to say something, but he heard that her last word sounded a little erratic. He turned around and saw that Nuwa had already disappeared. Even he didn't know when or how she left.
He tucked his hair in front of his forehead with one hand. He combed his hair to the back of his head and stared at the ground below the small building. There was no trace of the tree roots spreading.
However, he didn't have the slightest intention to check. Gong Daoyi sighed softly and sat down cross-legged at the edge of the fault. He played with the visa that he had just received.
"An agricultural farm … What kind of world would it be like?"
Green Melon mumbled to himself as he looked at the visa in his hand. He didn't know who he was asking. Since he and Qian Zhengguan didn't dare to go down to the ground, they were basically useless. Lin Sanjiu had no choice but to dig in the direction she had pointed out.
"Sister Lin, if we can't get a visa this time, you should use this one. Since it's called a farm, there should be plenty of food … "Green Melon sighed when he thought of this," What happened to Boss and the rest … "
Lin Sanjiu didn't know if she didn't hear him or if she couldn't be bothered to reply. Her figure was getting lower and lower, which meant that the hole she dug was getting deeper and deeper.
"Hey, which world are you from? Haven't you read Jin Yong before?" Qian Zhengguan, who was sitting on the other shoulder of the robot doll, suddenly leaned over and asked. He seemed to be still brooding over this matter.
However, to his surprise, Green Melon replied with a "Huh?", "I've read it before! The one who wrote knight novels a few hundred years ago … He had a book called "Swan Sword". It was really well written … "
Qian Zhengguan's jaw dropped.
It wasn't surprising that a parallel dimension could evolve into a world that was ever-changing. This wasn't what surprised him. Qian Zhengguan suddenly turned his head and shouted at Lin Sanjiu with his injured throat, "Sister Lin! Sister Lin! "
"This guy has heard of Jin Yong! The person I tried to swap positions with just now definitely isn't him. Continue digging from the same spot. There must be someone else who has never heard of Jin Yong! " Qian Zhengguan was so excited that he even swapped positions with Green Melon a few times to prove his words. The latter was in a daze when he suddenly realized that he was swapping from his left shoulder to his right shoulder. He was so shocked that he almost fell.
When Qian Zhengguan's words entered her ears, Lin Sanjiu felt her body filled with energy. She replied loudly and increased her speed near the spot where she found Green Melon. Sure enough, after a while, another thick root with a humanoid figure emerged from the ground.
This time, it was Bai Xiaoke who fell out of the root.
Bai Xiaoke had a petite figure. She always complained that she didn't look imposing, but this time, she saved her life. The tall and muscular escort curled up into a ball and hugged her tightly in his arms. He protected her well. He also covered her head with his large hands so that no tentacles could get in.
When she fell to the ground, she only fainted for a short while due to the lack of oxygen. Lin Sanjiu quickly woke her up. On the other hand, the gigolo had no clothes to protect him. His skin was torn and tattered, so he had no choice but to be kept back.
"Xiaojiu …"
As there was no more space on the robot doll, Green Melon helped Bai Xiaoke put on the [Cloud Mimic Raincoat] and flew her up into the sky like a kite. Lin Sanjiu panted as she continued to dig. At the same time, she heard Bai Xiaoke sobbing above her.
"You're so kind. You never gave up on us … We will definitely be found …"
As more and more people were found, Lin Sanjiu gradually felt less anxious. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and even had the time to lift her head and smile, "Don't cry. Your tears are dripping on me. If you feel better, why don't you tell me what happened inside? "
Lin Sanjiu heard an "Okay" from the dark cloud above her head.
Based on Green Melon's and Qian Zhengguan's descriptions, Bai Xiaoke's description was added to the list. Lin Sanjiu asked them a few questions and realized that all of them mentioned the same sentence in unison, "It seems like we're going downwards."
"Downwards?
What's down there? " (To be continued.)
PS:
"Since there is no thank you list, does it mean that I'm working too hard?
I've written too many words in one day. I'm about to throw up … You guys don't know how many times I almost wrote Gong Daoyi as Jin Daoyi … "
