Fifteen minutes later, a section of the carriage set off from the station under the pull of an invisible gravitational force, accompanied by a whistle that came from nowhere.
"That's it?"
Huai Shi looked around at the scenery in the carriage in astonishment. "Where's the promised luxury? Where's the promised honorable experience? Where's the f * cking good memory? "
He rubbed his teeth and suddenly wanted to pull out a knife to sharpen it.
He wanted to cut someone.
If it weren't for the fact that there were no train personnel in this carriage at all!
It was completely different from the expected luxury train, honorable experience, and meticulous and considerate service. Not only was there only a section of the carriage, but there wasn't even the front of the carriage!
The interior of the carriage … It was like changing a freight train, right?
There was no air conditioning, no cushions, and even the windows were broken!
Fortunately, the chairs could be sat on, and there was no difference anyway. They were all small stools that cost five yuan in the market and were casually welded to the floor.
And they weren't even welded properly!
Even if they bought a standing ticket, this was too much!
How was this worth half a million yuan?
Someone had just said that people in the Modern Realm were all swindlers, but in the end, they encountered such rampant and malicious fraud at the border. They even dared to cheat the money of the Astronomy Society!
It wasn't easy for him to get some stolen goods!
This kind of goods couldn't even be considered average, yet they dared to limit the exemption!
Huai Shi was furious. She even had the urge to blow up the car …
After a long time, he suppressed his anger and let out a long sigh. There was no other way. Plans couldn't keep up with changes — at worst, he could just get off at the next station.
The key was to suck up to them first …
He slowly looked at the gray-clothed man sitting on the folding stool next to him. The prematurely aged, middle-aged worker hugged his briefcase and leaned against the rusty carriage. The carriage swayed with the sound of the hammering of the rails.
He looked extremely pitiful.
This was too much! How could this group of people treat their big brother like this!
Huai Shi sat directly opposite him. With a bang, he seemed to be startled. Just as he was at a loss, he saw the serious face of the young man in front of him suddenly squeeze out a flattering smile and reach his hand into his pocket.
"Take Guo Guo, Pow pow pow!"
A bottle of Happy Water, still cold, was taken out from the crack in his chest.
"Ah? Oh, thanks. "
The grey-clothed man was stunned for a long time, and then he was flattered. Before he could open the can, he saw Huai Shi take out the lunch box that Fang Shu had made for him before he left from his saddlebag. He opened it neatly, and a rich aroma spread out.
He stuffed it into the hands of the grey-robed man. "Daoguo, Ci Chicken Drumstick!"
"… Ah, okay."
Then, Huai Shi rummaged in his pocket and took out a cigarette from the metal box. He opened it respectfully and offered it with both hands. "Take Guo, smoke this. Hold on!"
"…"
A minute later, the gray-clothed man, who was holding a bottle of Coke in his left hand and a box in his right and had two cigarettes stuffed in his mouth, was dumbfounded to see Huai Shi take out another bag of salted peanuts that Fang Shu had lovingly made.
"Big Brother, Monk Cihua!"
When the man in gray struggled to take the peanuts, Huai Shi magically took out a violin that she had made in her free time from her pocket. She smiled warmly and said, "Don't worry, I don't know what you're doing.
"Big Brother, eat slowly, I'll accompany you …"
That's enough!
The gray-clothed man's expression twitched, and he helplessly grabbed Huai Shi's hand. "Big Brother, there's no need, there's really no need …"
"Big Brother, just call me Xiao Huai, don't be so distant!"
Huai Shi raised his hand and seriously stopped his big brother's behavior. "As the saying goes, rely on your parents at home, and rely on your brothers when you go out … You and I feel like old friends at first sight, I'm just trying to be humble, please don't refuse."
What a joke, Huai Shi was still preparing to massage Big Brother Big Brother's back and shoulders later!
It was not easy to meet such a golden thigh that was easy to hug, and it was so awesome that it could sit on the same level as Green Sun's BOSS. Would he still be human if he let it go?
You're my brother, I, Little Page of Huaihai Lu, will definitely make friends with you!
Looking at his increasingly enthusiastic expression, the gray-clothed man became distressed. "Even if you treat me like this, I can't do anything for you …"
Stopping Huai Shi who was about to speak, he sighed, "In fact, I'm just an ordinary retired person … I'm not as powerful as that lady said, please don't have any expectations for me.
Besides, even without me, with your identity, you can still stay there, right? "
With that said, he carefully put things like happy drinks and edamame on the briefcase on his knees, raised both hands, and patted the shoulders of the young man in front of him seriously with a solemn expression.
"You should at least be more confident, Huai Shi. Don't underestimate yourself."
Holding the young man's shoulders, he said seriously, "There's no need to rely on anyone, you're already a big shot."
"Ah?"
Huai Shi was confused, he didn't know why this big brother had such a high opinion of him.
Didn't they say that people would be punished if they walked in the sky?
"In short, there's still a little time before we reach the station."
The gray-clothed man used the briefcase to pick up the food that Huai Shi stuffed over, and a warm smile appeared on his pale face. "There's too much food, I can't finish it alone. Can we eat together?"
Such a sincere invitation was far better than any ulterior motives to approach and curry favor.
Huai Shi was stunned for a long time, then he nodded with a bitter smile.
"Okay!"
.
.
Just as the two people were eating peanuts and chicken drumsticks in the corner of the carriage, Huai Shi felt the whole carriage suddenly shake.
It seemed to rise into the air.
When he poked his head out of the window, he felt the wind blowing in his face, and the gray ocean slowly approaching above his head.
Two rails that extended continuously under the carriage curled up and headed towards the sea in the sky, leading the carriage to fly into the sky and gallop between the dark sky and the sea.
Behind them, the lights of the stone city had been left far behind.
Huai Shi shook his head, spat out two peanut shells in the wind, and stared ahead with wide eyes.
The carriage was galloping forward.
Flying.
Straight toward the ocean.
It was as if it was going to break through the surface of the sea and rush into the sea. Instead of slowing down, it accelerated and became faster and faster.
The hurricane was blowing in his face, and it was as if someone was pulling Huai Shi's hair from behind.
It was so fast that he couldn't react in time.
By the time Huai Shi retracted his head back into the carriage, his hair was already as messy as a beggar's, and it took him a long time to manage it.
What the hell is going on?
As if knowing what Huai Shi was thinking, Crow said without looking back, "It's just an undercurrent, don't make a fuss, silly boy."
Then explain it in advance, Sister!
"Aren't I just getting ready?"
Crow turned around and sighed helplessly. "Don't write what you want to say on your face, okay? You're making me feel like I can read your mind. It's embarrassing."
Hurry up and explain it then!
"Okay, the Ancient Tourism Company that operates The Star on behalf of The Ancient Tourism Company is a shareholding of Wangu Investment, and as everyone knows, the Wangu Group is a puppet of the Continuation Court … So, it's considered a big deal for the time being.
However, the 61% shares of 'Ancient Tourism' were not exchanged with money by Wangu Investment, but a navigation permit. "
Crow paused for a moment. "The permit was issued by the terrifying existence of this Endless Ocean 40 years ago — the [Ruler] Leviathan, who was above the [Crowned Bearer] …
Huai Shi sighed helplessly. "Permit."
"Yes, yes, permit."
Crow coughed awkwardly, and continued, "Any vehicle that holds the imprint of the permit can travel freely on this sea with the help of the currents of the Endless Ocean, regardless of depth and distance. In just a few hours, it can reach any place covered by the 17 currents.
17 currents, that is to say, there are a total of 17 navigation permits, which are held by 17 large pedigrees, enterprises, or powerhouses. Well, it doesn't matter if you call them the 17 Martial Seas, these 17 forces have completely monopolized the shipping and communication of the entire Endless Ocean.
Well, that's all for Sister Crow's border general knowledge lesson for today. Is there anything you don't understand? "
"Apart from knowing that with the permit, one can perform an ocean jump, I don't understand anything else." Huai Shi said indifferently, "Also, did you throw out a bunch of new settings without warning again?"
"Please call this a step-by-step process, okay? I can't throw an eight-million-word 'Hell Survival Guide' at your face the first time we meet, right? "
"…"
Just as Huai Shi was about to roll her eyes, she felt her body tremble.
The scenery outside the window had been replaced by an endless grayish-blue color.
It was the sea.
The carriage had been smashed into the sea under the guidance of the rails, breaking through layers of seawater and sailing into the depths of the darkness.
In the dead silence, only the low roar of the undercurrent in the distance could be heard.
The undercurrent jump had begun.
No one in the carriage spoke.
Everyone felt a heavy chill in their hearts.
Only Huai Shi didn't feel the strange atmosphere around him at all. He was already standing in front of the window, looking up and looking outside.
He could only see a dancing grayish-blue, gradually dimming, and in an instant, it was covered by darkness.
He couldn't see anything, but he could feel that the train was madly galloping, as if it was pulled by an invisible rope, getting faster and faster.
There were already people in the carriage who couldn't stand still and rolled on the ground.
The gray-robed man's movements were fast, as if he was protecting some treasure, he grabbed the peanuts in the food box and bag, opened his mouth wide, and bit the chicken leg flying in the air, then raised his two legs and clamped the briefcase.
He was in a difficult situation.
But he successfully defended the dignity of food!
Huai Shi turned his head and was about to help, but the corner of his eyes glimpsed the endless darkness outside the window — the darkness seemed to squirm.
