Tourists banned from coveting married breeders
Chapter 144
Jian Chen stood up and seemed to be hesitating whether to wake up Ah Shao at this time, and if he woke up the big bug, whether to repeat what he said just now.
After all, parting is always difficult, not only for human beings, but also for the black beetles who have lost their youth for thousands of years.
Suddenly, the little robot that had been following behind him clung to Jian Chen's ear and reminded, "It's pretending to be asleep."
Jian Chen was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the big bug, and said, "But it didn't move, and its breathing was very steady."
"It's masking its grief," Bennett said.
Jian Chen's eyebrows froze, and his eyes fell on the big insect, his eyes were filled with sadness and sadness.
The little robot continued: "Maybe it's pretending to be asleep to avoid your leaving, because it knows that Mr. Jian Chen didn't leave without saying goodbye, and the longer you delay, the later the master will leave."
Bennet lowered his eyes, and said in a somewhat mechanical voice: "Of course, this kind of behavior is also called escapism, and wise and strong leaders generally don't do this."
Insect King: "..."
The big bug got up after a while.
At that moment, the man changed from the animal form of a big worm to a human form. The man was tall and handsome. Grim master.
"It wasn't you who left him."
The man's voice was deep and magnetic, with a hint of dullness and sorrow, and the ending paused: "Of course you can say sarcastic remarks."
Jian Chen was stunned in surprise.
His eyes fell on Ah Shao's face.
The originally spotless and handsome face now has a steady stream of tears dripping down, sliding down the chin, and dripping down the jaw.
Although he was crying, the man opened his eyes without hesitation, looking straight at his guardian who was about to leave.
The corners of his lips were slightly pursed, and the golden pupils were stained with light by the water mist, implying that the insect king was not as calm and calm as he seemed.
Jian Chen became helpless for a moment.
He didn't expect that his farewell would have such an impact on Ah Shao.
He thought that reunion with his own race would be an extremely exciting and long-awaited event for Ah Shao.
In contrast, it would be easier to separate from himself, after all, the insect king had been with him and Dundun for a long time.
Jian Chen stepped forward and hugged the insect king.
The young man patted Zai Zai's back with his palm and said, "It's just a temporary separation."
"A whistle."
"Stardust Zoo is also your home, if you miss me and Dundun, you can come back anytime."
"Even if you are the leader of the Zerg, you will always be my cub."
The man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and there were a little teardrops hanging on them, although he still had the same expression as before, dull and reticent.
But the man was silent for a while.
After a while, he nodded slowly.
Jian Chen started to pack his luggage.
It hugged the little panda in front of its body, looked at the black beetles all over the mountains and plains, and suddenly felt a little worried.
How to say goodbye to this group of bugs who have been waiting for me for so long?Sig, who has always been calm, can't hold back his tears. What kind of reaction will the group of little guys in front of him be?
A Shao said that if the humans and the group of black beetles leave without saying goodbye, it is likely that the little ones will wake up and think that Jian Chen just now is just their fantasy.The youth didn't really come back, but their absurd and beautiful dream.
Jian Chen: "..."
So sad.
In order to prevent this from happening, the young man decided to wake up the sleeping Zerg and bid farewell to the cubs.
Although the process was difficult, Jian Chen climbed up the dragon's back and waved to the cubs who were looking up at him under the eyes of the black beetles.
The black beetles stretched out their forearms, responding to Jian Chen.
As for Ah Shao, who was looking at the receding figure of the human from a distance, his golden eyes trembled, and its tentacles moved slightly, but he did not wave goodbye to the human.
As long as it doesn't say goodbye, they aren't really separated.
Jian Chen sat on the dragon's back.
The map has been completely put away, Jian Chen took out the plant detector, guided Rega forward, and groped for the direction of Mermaid Planet.
After all, there are different opinions on the location of the mermaids, and even the most standard and authoritative map of the whole interstellar is only for reference.
So the only thing Jian Chen can trust is the pointer in his hand.
Before leaving, the group was full of food and drink at Chong Xing, so one person, one dragon, one bear and one robot were full of energy and hope, and they were not tired of going on the journey at all.
Five days later.
Jian Chen woke up from a half-dream.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the scenery that flooded into his sight was a wild planet waiting to be developed. There was no life around him, only dry plains and rocks. It took Jian Chen a few seconds to realize where he was.
This was the fifth day they had failed to find Mermaid.
The pointer clearly pointed to the position of the mermaid planet, but when they finally arrived at the planet, the pointer suddenly changed its angle and pointed in a completely opposite direction.
After so much running around, Rhaegar and the little humans were gradually exhausted.
Although Dundun doesn't need to contribute, the bamboo stock is getting less and less, which makes the little panda's originally happy journey long and tiring.
Bennett followed closely behind, and they decided to land on the nearest planet as a temporary resting place.
Lei Jia lay beside Jian Chen, with his head resting on the young man's thigh, wagging his tail sleepily.
The little robot lowered its head.
He put his slender fingertips against one end of the probe's pointer, watching the restless pointer gradually stabilize, and when he let go of his finger, the probe's pointer continued to shake, erratic from side to side.
Finding the Mermaid this time seems to be more difficult than ever before.
Jian Chen couldn't even determine whether the mermaid star was as hard to find as it was said in the legend, or the dodder who didn't want to be caught by him was acting as a hindrance.
Or... the detector in his hand is broken?
Seeing that the date agreed with Ye Siting was approaching, Jian Chen could no longer calm down, and the four dodders were all put into the net bag, and the only ones left outside the interstellar space were Mermaid Planet and the small planet to be developed.
Not to mention how to convince the unknown phoenix and burn the dodder with flames, first of all, how to find all the dodders is an insurmountable problem.
When Jian Chen took the cubs to set off again, they followed the original direction and came to the planet pointed by the pointer for the second time.
And this time, it was exactly the same as any previous time.
As soon as they arrived outside the bright planet, the pointer immediately turned around as if playing tricks on them, pointing to the way they came from.
It was as if all the toil and running around were a joke.
Jian Chen frowned slightly.
This time, he decided to twist his thigh with his arm.
Without any warning, Jian Chen commanded Rega and said, "Zai Zai, land on this planet!"
Rhaegar: "?"
Bennett was also a little surprised.
After all pointers have donkey'd them too many times.
At one point even almost turned them into a black hole.
But humans may have different ideas at this moment.
Lei Jia didn't hesitate, and as soon as Jian Chen finished speaking, he spread his wings and quickly flew towards the land of this planet.
There is still a distance between the dome and the ground, and even a dragon flying extremely fast will take a while to land.
During this period, Jian Chen continued to observe the pointer of the plant detector.
Soon, the young man was surprised to find that after entering this planet, they fell extremely fast, and after flying to an incalculable position——
The evil needle that was originally pointing in the opposite direction suddenly slowly moved back to the angle of rotation, pointing to the planet again!
Jian Chen's eyes widened slightly.
There is such a strange phenomenon.
The detector, which has never made a mistake, turned the pointer in the opposite direction after approaching the destination, like a blindfold, hindering people's judgment.
And after the passengers finally made up their minds to enter the planet, the probe returned to normal not long after breaking through the periphery.
If it is not an experienced pirate or interstellar traveler, they will be played around like them in such a situation, and eventually exhausted, and at the same time the resources are exhausted, and they will be left in this space forever.
It seemed right to break in.
Jian Chen was a little apprehensive.
Maybe there really are mermaids here, of course, this is not Jian Chen's final interest, his only thought now is to follow the pointer that has returned to normal, and quickly find the dodder.
As Rega slowly approached the land, Jian Chen also began to pay attention to the panorama of the entire planet.
This is a planet made up of oceans.
But it is not an empty and boring blue sea. On the surface of the sea, there are countless small islands, but there is no contiguous large-scale territory or country. Obviously, if there is any civilization on this planet, it will be A history and monument made of water.
Since they didn't have any ships, Rhaegar slowly descended. It stared at a relatively large island, and it seemed that it planned to land there.
This planet is different from most of the planets they have passed through in the past.
The Orc Planet, Tomb Spirit Planet, and even the Insect Planet are all in darkness all year round, but the planet they landed on at this moment is bright and bright, like a grand day.
Jian Chen hadn't experienced this kind of atmosphere for a long time.
Although they were a little apprehensive, their hopes were slowly growing. After all, after too many days of bumping into walls, they finally saw the dawn for the first time.
The closer to the ground, the more stable the pointer in Jian Chen's hand, as if in the process of searching for Mermaid, the abnormality of the detector is an illusion.
In this way, Jian Chen felt that he had found the right place.
Rega's size is huge, but he is extremely flexible when flying. It quickly landed on the edge of the island, where the ecology is prosperous and green plants are all over the island. From a distance, it seems that there are still villages.
And this island was endless, terrifyingly large, not like what they saw when they were outside the planet, it only occupied a small corner of the ocean.
Jian Chen jumped off the back of the dragon, his eyes narrowed slightly by the sunlight, he took the little panda handed by Bennett, Dundun was also filled with the joy of the new landing, and hugged his little dad excitedly.
Jian Chen looked down at the pointer of a detector, pointing straight to the depths of the island.
For some reason, the location of the dodder is not underwater, the young man should be relieved, but now pointing to such an unknown area, Jian Chen is unconsciously a little nervous.
However, just as the group of them was about to set off, Jian Chen heard tons of voices from behind, following behind him like a shadow.
Jian Chen turned his head subconsciously, and saw the huge dragon raising its wings step by step like a bodyguard, looking quite majestic.
Jian Chen: "..."
Don't panic.
With such a black dragon following behind, any species would feel frightened and have the urge to run away when seeing such a scene.
cough.
It's not me who should panic.
With this thought in mind, the steps of human beings have become more confident.
This is a rather large island, and I am afraid that it will not be able to finish it on foot for nine days and nine nights.
So, Jian Chen climbed up the dragon's back with his arms in his arms, and Lei Jia flapped his wings and leaped out of the dense forest, causing a large number of leaves to fall.
Following the direction of the pointer, they crossed the island in the air, and even reached the end of the island. Rhaegar flapped his wings slowly and landed.
Jian Chen who jumped off the dragon's back: "..."
The pointer continued to point to the distant sea, and it seemed that on the side of the island, the direction it was pointing was not the center of the island, but the coast farther away than the island.
It seems that the process of searching for dodder will never end.
Jian Chen sighed lightly.
He decided to ask the inhabitants of the island.
You can't continue to search all the way in the dark.
Soon, they came to the nearby villages, or towns, and there was no sense of disobedience.
From the entrance of the town, Jian Chen looked at the area on the island that symbolizes the civilization of the planet. What was different from what he imagined was that it was not the kind of cannibal that he imagined, with naked clothes and holding a knife and fork. Reading Martian texts, the star people who are excitedly eating foreign tourists.
On the contrary, the people on the island are still dressed like ordinary humans.
Even very distinctive, beautiful and strange clothing, a style and appearance that Jian Chen has never seen before.
But visually it gives people an unusually comfortable and eye-catching effect.
Just don't know why.
Even though the townspeople dress differently from each other, their styles are close to similar.
For example, women on the islands have a slender and beautiful upper body, and they like to wear beautiful blouses that expose their collarbone.
On the other hand, the lower body was wearing a long tutu skirt, which almost covered all of the ankles and shoes, and even the edge of the skirt was too long, even if it dragged the ground, she didn't care.
Men are even more so.
Some men are even bare chested, but their lower body is neatly dressed. They are all trousers with wide trousers. Although it looks a bit unsuitable, it does not lack any aesthetic feeling. The style of the town has a special flavor.
Jian Chen, who was a little surprised, decided to go in and have a look.
He told Rhaegar to step back and play where the crowd couldn't see, otherwise such a shocking black dragon broke into the town, which would only cause uproar and endless panic.
He handed Dundun to Rhaegar, and decided to enter the town with Bennett.
Dundun watched as his father handed himself over to the dragon, leaving them alone.
In an instant, the small eyes in the dark circles were all rounded. It looked at the little dad in shock and bewilderment, stretched out its paws to dad, begging for a hug, and let out a useless howl.
But soon the dragon grabbed the back of the neck and left slowly.
Jian Chen waved at his own cub.
Bennett followed the young man and walked slowly into the town.
The town looks very lively, there are endless markets and stalls, and the age is generally young, and the appearance is quite high, but there are only a few elderly townspeople.
Jian Chen and the little robot followed the entrance and slowly stepped into the core of this strange island.
Only, when he appeared in the town.
Jian Chen suddenly sensed something was wrong.
Soon, he found that the townspeople stared at him the moment they saw him.
Their eyes fell on Jian Chen's face.
And Bennett beside him, as an equally rare bionic human, seemed to be ignored, and the townspeople turned a blind eye to the robot beside the little human.
It's a rather awkward and eerie scene.
Jian Chen can understand that as a foreigner, he suddenly broke into an unfamiliar town on another planet, and there is a completely different culture here. Even based on the fact that human beings are on the verge of extinction in the interstellar age, Jian Chen even feels that they are probably not a species at all. .
Just, are you that surprised?
Hasn't a foreigner like him ever come in before...?
Where Jian Chen can see, no matter what the town residents are doing, their movements seem to be frozen. No matter where Jian Chen goes, they are all baptized by such undisguised eyesight.
Jian Chen saw surprise and flicker in their eyes.
The young man swallowed lightly.
He stepped forward and walked towards the nearest resident, who was a fish vendor, and the stall was full of all kinds of fish.
Jian Chen tried his best to be calm, and said politely: "Hi, may I ask..."
The young man paused, and wanted to ask about Cuscuta first, but when the subject changed, the human whispered, "...why is everyone looking at me like this?"
The peddler was visibly taken aback.
Soon, his expression returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "Little gentleman, maybe you are a foreigner, and we don't often have guests on this planet, besides..."
He smiled: "You are still a human being."
"This species is very rare, isn't it common in the interstellar era? So everyone is surprised, you don't have to worry about it."
Jian Chen suddenly nodded.
When I turned my gaze around again, the gaze that had just landed on my face was gone, and the residents of the small town began to be busy again, returning to their daily life.
"But little brother, why are you here?"
The peddler asked with a smile while cutting the fish.
Jian Chen thought for a while, he didn't come to look for the mermaid because of the fame, but just a light yellow plant that is not very conspicuous, so it doesn't hurt to say it.
Although he is still being offered a reward, since Ye Siting has given him time, Jian Chen knows that the man will not miss the appointment.
But at the same time, after the time limit expires, he will not give himself any room for grace.
Jian Chen sighed a little in his heart, and said politely: "I'm here to look for a plant named Cuscuta. I have a detector, which shows that it is on this planet, but I'm not sure where it is, so I want to compare it with the island here. Let's find out."
"Do you know, please?"
The peddler repeated: "Cuscuta..."
"I've never heard of it." The peddler scratched his head, "Listen to the name, it's not a common plant in our place."
Jian Chen's hope was in vain.
It seems that they still have to rely on themselves, but they don't know where the probe will eventually point.
...It can't really be under the surface of the sea, can it?
Human beings who cannot swim shed bitter tears.
"but."
The man seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and said: "Why don't you ask the oldest fisherman here? He has lived for thousands of years, not only has he seen the most types of fish, but he is also familiar with all kinds of plants on this planet. "
"Perhaps it also includes the one you mentioned."
Jian Chen's eyes moved, as if he had found hope: "Thank you, how can I find him?"
The peddler glanced at the time, then at his own fish, and seemed to sigh: "Hey, I'll take you directly...Anyway, I'm sure I won't be able to sell any of them today."
When Jian Chen heard about it, his eyes fell on the huge fish stall.
The human lowered his head, took out a gold coin from his backpack, and handed it to the peddler: "This, how much can you buy?"
At Dulongxing, when the group of imperial businessmen were packing their treasures, they dropped a few gold coins in the corner. Before Jian Chen and Lei Jia left the Dragon’s Lair, they felt a little pity, so they sorted out the gold coins and put them at the bottom of the backpack. , so as to be a entanglement on the road.
Didn't expect it to come in handy today.
The moment he handed it to the vendor, the man's eyes widened in that instant.
He took the gold coin and was so surprised that he was speechless.
"Enough, enough to buy them all!"
The peddler instantly let go of the handle of his cart and handed it to Jian Chen: "You push this, and the cart is also given to you."
Jian Chen: "..."
He waved his hand, he was not interested in small fish, he just thanked the peddler for telling him this, and if he bought so many fish, how would he go on his way?
If it is used as rations for his own big black dragon, Lei Jia prefers to eat meat instead of fish.
The young man said, "No, just thank you for telling me and guiding me."
Hawker: "..."
What a little angel! ?
But before leaving, the man filled Jian Chen with a big bag full of fish.
Completely different from the ancient earth, the fish have been cut into strips and small pieces suitable for the entrance, neatly arranged in a pocket, like exquisite works of art.
And the meat is fresh and tender, it looks like the fish that was salvaged and killed that day.
Jian Chen was too embarrassed to refuse again, so he thanked her.
He took the bag with a heavy palm.
Guided by the hawker, they left the town and headed towards the shore of the island.
As the oldest fisherman, he is stationed on the edge of the island almost all the year round.
A small boat and several fishing nets constituted the old man's life.
When the peddler brought Jian Chen to the shore, the elderly fisherman was cleaning his wooden boat on the shore.
In the interstellar era, Jian Chen has seen countless high-tech ships that have sailed in the sea. They do not need to be manipulated, and they are made of special materials. Even if they hit a reef, they will never sink. It was the first time we met after coming to this era.
There was something inexplicably kind.
The fisherman glanced at them, although his eyes stayed on Jian Chen's face, but only for two seconds, he withdrew his eyes and continued his skillful movements.
Jian Chen and the fisherman looked at each other unexpectedly, so they took advantage of the situation and said, "Hello, I want to find..."
"Mermaid?" asked the fisherman.
The man seemed to have guessed what the human in front of him wanted to say: "Little guy, there are no mermaids on this planet, you came to the wrong place."
If you come to the wrong place, you must pay the price.
And the price,
It is that you can never leave this planet again.
...This is the second half of the sentence that the fisherman did not say.
Although Jian Chen didn't come here for the mermaid, he also received the message from the old man's words. He thought silently, so there is no mermaid on this planet.
It seems that few people have seen this ancient and mysterious creature.
"Abbe! No, this human is looking for a plant called Cuscuta, do you know what it is?"
The old man didn't raise his head. He was also dressed in the same style as the residents on the island. He was topless and wore old trousers. His voice was a bit vicissitudes, but he was full of air: "Is that the light yellow, dense mass?"
Jian Chen's eyes brightened: "Yes."
Looks like you are asking the right person!
"Do you know where it is?"
"I know." The fisherman washed the rag in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "It's not on this island. I have to cross the sea and go to a small island the size of a palm. There is a plant there."
The old man lowered his eyes and said lightly: "But the terrain here is complicated, you can't find it."
Jian Chen & Hawker: "..."
The atmosphere was at a deadlock for a while.
The young peddler rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Abbe, this is my friend who also helped me take care of the business. Can you find a way to give him a ride? I'll buy you a drink afterwards."
Fisherman: "What wine?"
Vendor: "The one you often go to."
Fisherman: "What wine?"
Hawker: "..."
Vendor: "The most expensive bottle you have been reluctant to drink."
Fisherman: "Okay, let's get on the boat."
Jian Chen: "..." I have never seen a fisherman who is so easy to compromise.
Jian Chen tugged at the corner of the peddler's clothes, and said in a low voice, "I'll pay you for the drink."
The peddler was stunned, shook his head quickly, and said with a smile: "No, to be honest, your gold coins are enough for this old man to drink for half his life."
Jian Chen blinked and nodded.
Jian Chen raised his foot and stepped onto the trembling wooden boat. Although it looked unreliable, when Jian Chen sat on it, he felt that the bottom plate was extremely firm. After all, the owner of the boat is a fisherman for thousands of years. The old driver should Reliable.
Thinking of this, Jian Chen felt a little relieved.
But just as Bennett followed closely and was about to step on the wooden boat, he was stopped by the fisherman: "You can't."
"This boat can only carry one person at a time."
Hearing this news, the little robot with a gradually gloomy face: "..."
Bennett: "I won't let him go to sea with you alone."
The fisherman frowned, and said resolutely: "Either no one will go, or he is the only one. I only care about the bottle of wine. You choose."
Bennett: "If you let me go to sea with you, I'll buy you that tavern."
Fisherman: "..."
The old man swallowed silently.
After a few seconds, the fisherman still shook his head: "Even if you say that, the boat can only accommodate one person, and you can't go unless you can fly."
Bennett raised his eyebrows and remained silent.
Jian Chen whispered: "Actually, he will."
For the first time, the fisherman looked up at the bionic man in surprise.
He coughed heavily, and said helplessly, "You haven't been to this sea, have you? After two hours, the whole planet will be plunged into darkness, and the sky will be dark blue without stars and light, and even a ray of light won't penetrate."
"Not only that, but there will also be fog rising from the sea. In fact, this little guy and I are sitting on a boat, and we can barely see each other clearly."
"You will definitely get lost if you keep up, or even get lost, which will cause trouble for me. It is useless other than that."
……
night?
But isn't it still a sunny day with the sun shining brightly?
The peddler next to him hurriedly explained to one person and one machine. From the man's mouth, Jian Chen and the others learned that the night of this planet lasts for 26 hours, and the day is extremely short.
Like a flash in the pan, only a short two hours.
And they just happened to land on this planet during these two hours.
Bennett obviously didn't have any information about this planet, but he couldn't follow Jian Chen to the palm-sized island, which made the little robot worried and annoyed.
Jian Chen comforted Zai Zai: "Nothing will happen, he is obviously an old driver."
Bennett: "..."
Jian Chen: "Even if something happens, you are all on this island. We reset the emergency contact a few days ago. Have you forgotten?"
Bennett looked down at his own optical brain, a little stupefied, although he frowned slightly, he still hesitated and nodded.
Just like that, Jian Chen got on the wooden boat.
He waved to Bennett on the shore, and Bennett and the peddler responded to the humans at the same time.
Seeing the anxious bionic man with tears in his eyes, the fisherman said helplessly, "...As for what? I'll be back in an hour at most."
The small wooden boat became farther and farther away from the shore, gradually becoming a small point.
And the sky is not as bright as when they came just now.
The originally cloudless clear sky seemed to be covered with a layer of smog, and the sky was a little dark, but it was not a sign before the rain, but a real, natural transition from day to night.
It seems that the fisherman did not lie to him.
The sea surface, which was originally light blue, also became darker and darker as the sky darkened, and it became more and more colorful.
Jian Chen chatted with the old man occasionally, although the fisherman was a taciturn person, he would still answer Jian Chen's questions one by one, such as why his pointer kept shifting, why the fisherman thought he was looking for a mermaid just now, because Has there been a steady stream of tourists coming here since then?
After understanding, it was discovered that the reason why this planet cannot be located by the pointer is because it has a special magnetic field, which can block all identification from the outside.
And when people really find this place and land bravely, they have already passed through the outermost magnetic field, and the pointer will return to normal.
As for the mermaid, the fisherman did not disclose more.
While paddling the oars, the old man said, "I don't know either. I have been a fisherman for almost 1000 years, and I have never encountered any mermaids as you mentioned."
Jane understands.
The fisherman in front of him didn't seem to want to chat more about this topic. The young man wondered if it was because the fisherman had already answered too many questions about mermaids, so he was instinctively bored and helpless.
So the young man stopped asking.
Instead, I stared at the sea level and scenery in the distance, looked at the sparkling water patterns drawn by the oars, and felt a little inexplicably comfortable as the pleasant and cool wind brushed against my ears.
However, Jian Chen soon discovered that the sky had gradually and completely darkened.
What the fisherman said just now is true. The stars in the sky are sparse, and not much light penetrates into the planet, which makes the sky dark and the water surface dark.
Only the island is shining with beautiful light, and the water lines drawn by the oars, and there is a layer of faint starlight on the surface, floating continuously.
And the boat seemed to have been carefully decorated by the fisherman. The outer surface of the cabin seemed to be painted with a special substance, which could emit a faint light even in the middle of the night.
Not only is the appearance dreamy and beautiful, but it can also faintly illuminate the direction within three meters and guide the direction of short distances.
Jian Chen felt as if he had come to a dreamy fairy tale country.
All kinds of wonderful scenery seem to be seen only in the fairy tale books they read when they were young.
But it is more real than fairy tales, the visual, auditory, tactile sensation of fingers brushing the soft water surface, the subtle sound, and the contrast of visual effects, this is probably a scene that Jian Chen will never forget in his life.
Although it was because of force majeure that he came to this planet, Jian Chen suddenly felt that when everything was settled, he might be able to take Justin and Dundun to this beautiful planet that makes people take their breath away for a vacation. .
After all, after traveling to the interstellar era, the three of them rarely had such moments.
The last real reunion was at the gate of the zoo.
Ye Siting truly changed back to human form freely. While the two were loving each other, the little panda crawled out of the villa and ran between the two of them.
That was the memory that Jian Chen couldn't help but raise his mouth every time he recalled it.
The sky had completely darkened, and after driving for so long, the mist that the old fisherman said earlier was almost easy to get lost, has not appeared for a long time.
The rising fog is very light, just like the faint lingering fog floating in the hot spring pool. Apart from adding artistic conception, it will not hinder the progress of the road and visual judgment.
A little doubt arose in Jian Chen's heart.
But he thought, maybe the fog was not at its thickest yet.
The old man's physical strength and energy seemed to be more abundant than he imagined. Even after rowing for such a long time, he did not feel tired.
If you look carefully, there is not even a little sweat on the fisherman's forehead. Even though he is old, he is no less energetic than the young man.
Time passed for a long time, Jian Chen turned on his temporary optical brain, and sent a message to Bennett:
[Don't worry, the sea level here is very stable. 】
The little robot quickly replied: [Is it dark around here?Will it hit a reef? 】
Jian Chen couldn't help laughing: [Although it's dark, the boat is bright, so we can see the road clearly. 】
Bennett: [Didn't it say there would be fog? 】
Jian Chen: [The fog here is not too thick, it should not be there yet. 】
There seemed to be silence for a long time.
A few minutes later, Bennett asked: [Is it there yet? 】
Jian Chen: [Not yet, I passed an island, but it was not as big as a palm. 】
Bennett: [But it's been an hour and a half. 】
【Didn't you say you'll be back in an hour? 】
Jian Chen paused, and he also remembered that not long ago, when the fisherman took him away from the shore, he casually said that the distance was not far, and he would be back in an hour at most.
But it's been so long now, isn't it here?
A little doubt rose in Jian Chen's heart, so he asked, "Auntie, haven't we arrived yet?"
While rowing the boat, the fisherman answered the young man's question even though he was a taciturn old man, saying, "Hurry up, hurry up."
Jian Chen pursed her lips and asked softly, "Bennet said, it's already more than one o'clock, didn't you say you'd be back in an hour at most?"
Jian Chen was really afraid that the old man would get lost in the dark, so he said in a small voice: "...Do you need me to use the detector to navigate?"
Fisherman: "..."
Time passed slowly.
Soon, they couldn't even see the huge island they had left from the first place, and the lights that almost lit up the entire planet on it.
Jian Chen propped his chin, looking at the water surface a little bored.
The hull drifts away.
This kind of wonderful journey that has never been experienced makes human beings even feel temporarily separated from the world.
Soon, Jian Chen even felt the slow passage of time. He estimated the time when Bennett sent him a message just now, and it was about two hours since they left the shore.
Bennett and his chat box stayed on the interface just now, and the little robot didn't send any more messages.
He seriously suspected that the old fisherman was drawing big cakes for him.
Could it be because of the bottle of wine, in fact, the old man himself can't remember where the dodder is, and now he is just testing left and right?
Jian Chen sighed imperceptibly.
It felt like I was on a pirate ship.
However, just as Jian Chen was in a daze, he suddenly heard the fisherman's voice.
"Late at night."
"They're coming out."
The old man muttered to himself.
"what?"
Jian Chen was stunned, as if he didn't hear the fisherman's words clearly.
But he heard the second half of the sentence in a trance, but obviously, the human being failed to understand what the old man was saying, so he sat up straight.
His sight also involuntarily drifted to the deep and quiet sea.
"Sorry little sir."
fisherman hold
After all, parting is always difficult, not only for human beings, but also for the black beetles who have lost their youth for thousands of years.
Suddenly, the little robot that had been following behind him clung to Jian Chen's ear and reminded, "It's pretending to be asleep."
Jian Chen was stunned for a moment, then looked back at the big bug, and said, "But it didn't move, and its breathing was very steady."
"It's masking its grief," Bennett said.
Jian Chen's eyebrows froze, and his eyes fell on the big insect, his eyes were filled with sadness and sadness.
The little robot continued: "Maybe it's pretending to be asleep to avoid your leaving, because it knows that Mr. Jian Chen didn't leave without saying goodbye, and the longer you delay, the later the master will leave."
Bennet lowered his eyes, and said in a somewhat mechanical voice: "Of course, this kind of behavior is also called escapism, and wise and strong leaders generally don't do this."
Insect King: "..."
The big bug got up after a while.
At that moment, the man changed from the animal form of a big worm to a human form. The man was tall and handsome. Grim master.
"It wasn't you who left him."
The man's voice was deep and magnetic, with a hint of dullness and sorrow, and the ending paused: "Of course you can say sarcastic remarks."
Jian Chen was stunned in surprise.
His eyes fell on Ah Shao's face.
The originally spotless and handsome face now has a steady stream of tears dripping down, sliding down the chin, and dripping down the jaw.
Although he was crying, the man opened his eyes without hesitation, looking straight at his guardian who was about to leave.
The corners of his lips were slightly pursed, and the golden pupils were stained with light by the water mist, implying that the insect king was not as calm and calm as he seemed.
Jian Chen became helpless for a moment.
He didn't expect that his farewell would have such an impact on Ah Shao.
He thought that reunion with his own race would be an extremely exciting and long-awaited event for Ah Shao.
In contrast, it would be easier to separate from himself, after all, the insect king had been with him and Dundun for a long time.
Jian Chen stepped forward and hugged the insect king.
The young man patted Zai Zai's back with his palm and said, "It's just a temporary separation."
"A whistle."
"Stardust Zoo is also your home, if you miss me and Dundun, you can come back anytime."
"Even if you are the leader of the Zerg, you will always be my cub."
The man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and there were a little teardrops hanging on them, although he still had the same expression as before, dull and reticent.
But the man was silent for a while.
After a while, he nodded slowly.
Jian Chen started to pack his luggage.
It hugged the little panda in front of its body, looked at the black beetles all over the mountains and plains, and suddenly felt a little worried.
How to say goodbye to this group of bugs who have been waiting for me for so long?Sig, who has always been calm, can't hold back his tears. What kind of reaction will the group of little guys in front of him be?
A Shao said that if the humans and the group of black beetles leave without saying goodbye, it is likely that the little ones will wake up and think that Jian Chen just now is just their fantasy.The youth didn't really come back, but their absurd and beautiful dream.
Jian Chen: "..."
So sad.
In order to prevent this from happening, the young man decided to wake up the sleeping Zerg and bid farewell to the cubs.
Although the process was difficult, Jian Chen climbed up the dragon's back and waved to the cubs who were looking up at him under the eyes of the black beetles.
The black beetles stretched out their forearms, responding to Jian Chen.
As for Ah Shao, who was looking at the receding figure of the human from a distance, his golden eyes trembled, and its tentacles moved slightly, but he did not wave goodbye to the human.
As long as it doesn't say goodbye, they aren't really separated.
Jian Chen sat on the dragon's back.
The map has been completely put away, Jian Chen took out the plant detector, guided Rega forward, and groped for the direction of Mermaid Planet.
After all, there are different opinions on the location of the mermaids, and even the most standard and authoritative map of the whole interstellar is only for reference.
So the only thing Jian Chen can trust is the pointer in his hand.
Before leaving, the group was full of food and drink at Chong Xing, so one person, one dragon, one bear and one robot were full of energy and hope, and they were not tired of going on the journey at all.
Five days later.
Jian Chen woke up from a half-dream.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the scenery that flooded into his sight was a wild planet waiting to be developed. There was no life around him, only dry plains and rocks. It took Jian Chen a few seconds to realize where he was.
This was the fifth day they had failed to find Mermaid.
The pointer clearly pointed to the position of the mermaid planet, but when they finally arrived at the planet, the pointer suddenly changed its angle and pointed in a completely opposite direction.
After so much running around, Rhaegar and the little humans were gradually exhausted.
Although Dundun doesn't need to contribute, the bamboo stock is getting less and less, which makes the little panda's originally happy journey long and tiring.
Bennett followed closely behind, and they decided to land on the nearest planet as a temporary resting place.
Lei Jia lay beside Jian Chen, with his head resting on the young man's thigh, wagging his tail sleepily.
The little robot lowered its head.
He put his slender fingertips against one end of the probe's pointer, watching the restless pointer gradually stabilize, and when he let go of his finger, the probe's pointer continued to shake, erratic from side to side.
Finding the Mermaid this time seems to be more difficult than ever before.
Jian Chen couldn't even determine whether the mermaid star was as hard to find as it was said in the legend, or the dodder who didn't want to be caught by him was acting as a hindrance.
Or... the detector in his hand is broken?
Seeing that the date agreed with Ye Siting was approaching, Jian Chen could no longer calm down, and the four dodders were all put into the net bag, and the only ones left outside the interstellar space were Mermaid Planet and the small planet to be developed.
Not to mention how to convince the unknown phoenix and burn the dodder with flames, first of all, how to find all the dodders is an insurmountable problem.
When Jian Chen took the cubs to set off again, they followed the original direction and came to the planet pointed by the pointer for the second time.
And this time, it was exactly the same as any previous time.
As soon as they arrived outside the bright planet, the pointer immediately turned around as if playing tricks on them, pointing to the way they came from.
It was as if all the toil and running around were a joke.
Jian Chen frowned slightly.
This time, he decided to twist his thigh with his arm.
Without any warning, Jian Chen commanded Rega and said, "Zai Zai, land on this planet!"
Rhaegar: "?"
Bennett was also a little surprised.
After all pointers have donkey'd them too many times.
At one point even almost turned them into a black hole.
But humans may have different ideas at this moment.
Lei Jia didn't hesitate, and as soon as Jian Chen finished speaking, he spread his wings and quickly flew towards the land of this planet.
There is still a distance between the dome and the ground, and even a dragon flying extremely fast will take a while to land.
During this period, Jian Chen continued to observe the pointer of the plant detector.
Soon, the young man was surprised to find that after entering this planet, they fell extremely fast, and after flying to an incalculable position——
The evil needle that was originally pointing in the opposite direction suddenly slowly moved back to the angle of rotation, pointing to the planet again!
Jian Chen's eyes widened slightly.
There is such a strange phenomenon.
The detector, which has never made a mistake, turned the pointer in the opposite direction after approaching the destination, like a blindfold, hindering people's judgment.
And after the passengers finally made up their minds to enter the planet, the probe returned to normal not long after breaking through the periphery.
If it is not an experienced pirate or interstellar traveler, they will be played around like them in such a situation, and eventually exhausted, and at the same time the resources are exhausted, and they will be left in this space forever.
It seemed right to break in.
Jian Chen was a little apprehensive.
Maybe there really are mermaids here, of course, this is not Jian Chen's final interest, his only thought now is to follow the pointer that has returned to normal, and quickly find the dodder.
As Rega slowly approached the land, Jian Chen also began to pay attention to the panorama of the entire planet.
This is a planet made up of oceans.
But it is not an empty and boring blue sea. On the surface of the sea, there are countless small islands, but there is no contiguous large-scale territory or country. Obviously, if there is any civilization on this planet, it will be A history and monument made of water.
Since they didn't have any ships, Rhaegar slowly descended. It stared at a relatively large island, and it seemed that it planned to land there.
This planet is different from most of the planets they have passed through in the past.
The Orc Planet, Tomb Spirit Planet, and even the Insect Planet are all in darkness all year round, but the planet they landed on at this moment is bright and bright, like a grand day.
Jian Chen hadn't experienced this kind of atmosphere for a long time.
Although they were a little apprehensive, their hopes were slowly growing. After all, after too many days of bumping into walls, they finally saw the dawn for the first time.
The closer to the ground, the more stable the pointer in Jian Chen's hand, as if in the process of searching for Mermaid, the abnormality of the detector is an illusion.
In this way, Jian Chen felt that he had found the right place.
Rega's size is huge, but he is extremely flexible when flying. It quickly landed on the edge of the island, where the ecology is prosperous and green plants are all over the island. From a distance, it seems that there are still villages.
And this island was endless, terrifyingly large, not like what they saw when they were outside the planet, it only occupied a small corner of the ocean.
Jian Chen jumped off the back of the dragon, his eyes narrowed slightly by the sunlight, he took the little panda handed by Bennett, Dundun was also filled with the joy of the new landing, and hugged his little dad excitedly.
Jian Chen looked down at the pointer of a detector, pointing straight to the depths of the island.
For some reason, the location of the dodder is not underwater, the young man should be relieved, but now pointing to such an unknown area, Jian Chen is unconsciously a little nervous.
However, just as the group of them was about to set off, Jian Chen heard tons of voices from behind, following behind him like a shadow.
Jian Chen turned his head subconsciously, and saw the huge dragon raising its wings step by step like a bodyguard, looking quite majestic.
Jian Chen: "..."
Don't panic.
With such a black dragon following behind, any species would feel frightened and have the urge to run away when seeing such a scene.
cough.
It's not me who should panic.
With this thought in mind, the steps of human beings have become more confident.
This is a rather large island, and I am afraid that it will not be able to finish it on foot for nine days and nine nights.
So, Jian Chen climbed up the dragon's back with his arms in his arms, and Lei Jia flapped his wings and leaped out of the dense forest, causing a large number of leaves to fall.
Following the direction of the pointer, they crossed the island in the air, and even reached the end of the island. Rhaegar flapped his wings slowly and landed.
Jian Chen who jumped off the dragon's back: "..."
The pointer continued to point to the distant sea, and it seemed that on the side of the island, the direction it was pointing was not the center of the island, but the coast farther away than the island.
It seems that the process of searching for dodder will never end.
Jian Chen sighed lightly.
He decided to ask the inhabitants of the island.
You can't continue to search all the way in the dark.
Soon, they came to the nearby villages, or towns, and there was no sense of disobedience.
From the entrance of the town, Jian Chen looked at the area on the island that symbolizes the civilization of the planet. What was different from what he imagined was that it was not the kind of cannibal that he imagined, with naked clothes and holding a knife and fork. Reading Martian texts, the star people who are excitedly eating foreign tourists.
On the contrary, the people on the island are still dressed like ordinary humans.
Even very distinctive, beautiful and strange clothing, a style and appearance that Jian Chen has never seen before.
But visually it gives people an unusually comfortable and eye-catching effect.
Just don't know why.
Even though the townspeople dress differently from each other, their styles are close to similar.
For example, women on the islands have a slender and beautiful upper body, and they like to wear beautiful blouses that expose their collarbone.
On the other hand, the lower body was wearing a long tutu skirt, which almost covered all of the ankles and shoes, and even the edge of the skirt was too long, even if it dragged the ground, she didn't care.
Men are even more so.
Some men are even bare chested, but their lower body is neatly dressed. They are all trousers with wide trousers. Although it looks a bit unsuitable, it does not lack any aesthetic feeling. The style of the town has a special flavor.
Jian Chen, who was a little surprised, decided to go in and have a look.
He told Rhaegar to step back and play where the crowd couldn't see, otherwise such a shocking black dragon broke into the town, which would only cause uproar and endless panic.
He handed Dundun to Rhaegar, and decided to enter the town with Bennett.
Dundun watched as his father handed himself over to the dragon, leaving them alone.
In an instant, the small eyes in the dark circles were all rounded. It looked at the little dad in shock and bewilderment, stretched out its paws to dad, begging for a hug, and let out a useless howl.
But soon the dragon grabbed the back of the neck and left slowly.
Jian Chen waved at his own cub.
Bennett followed the young man and walked slowly into the town.
The town looks very lively, there are endless markets and stalls, and the age is generally young, and the appearance is quite high, but there are only a few elderly townspeople.
Jian Chen and the little robot followed the entrance and slowly stepped into the core of this strange island.
Only, when he appeared in the town.
Jian Chen suddenly sensed something was wrong.
Soon, he found that the townspeople stared at him the moment they saw him.
Their eyes fell on Jian Chen's face.
And Bennett beside him, as an equally rare bionic human, seemed to be ignored, and the townspeople turned a blind eye to the robot beside the little human.
It's a rather awkward and eerie scene.
Jian Chen can understand that as a foreigner, he suddenly broke into an unfamiliar town on another planet, and there is a completely different culture here. Even based on the fact that human beings are on the verge of extinction in the interstellar age, Jian Chen even feels that they are probably not a species at all. .
Just, are you that surprised?
Hasn't a foreigner like him ever come in before...?
Where Jian Chen can see, no matter what the town residents are doing, their movements seem to be frozen. No matter where Jian Chen goes, they are all baptized by such undisguised eyesight.
Jian Chen saw surprise and flicker in their eyes.
The young man swallowed lightly.
He stepped forward and walked towards the nearest resident, who was a fish vendor, and the stall was full of all kinds of fish.
Jian Chen tried his best to be calm, and said politely: "Hi, may I ask..."
The young man paused, and wanted to ask about Cuscuta first, but when the subject changed, the human whispered, "...why is everyone looking at me like this?"
The peddler was visibly taken aback.
Soon, his expression returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "Little gentleman, maybe you are a foreigner, and we don't often have guests on this planet, besides..."
He smiled: "You are still a human being."
"This species is very rare, isn't it common in the interstellar era? So everyone is surprised, you don't have to worry about it."
Jian Chen suddenly nodded.
When I turned my gaze around again, the gaze that had just landed on my face was gone, and the residents of the small town began to be busy again, returning to their daily life.
"But little brother, why are you here?"
The peddler asked with a smile while cutting the fish.
Jian Chen thought for a while, he didn't come to look for the mermaid because of the fame, but just a light yellow plant that is not very conspicuous, so it doesn't hurt to say it.
Although he is still being offered a reward, since Ye Siting has given him time, Jian Chen knows that the man will not miss the appointment.
But at the same time, after the time limit expires, he will not give himself any room for grace.
Jian Chen sighed a little in his heart, and said politely: "I'm here to look for a plant named Cuscuta. I have a detector, which shows that it is on this planet, but I'm not sure where it is, so I want to compare it with the island here. Let's find out."
"Do you know, please?"
The peddler repeated: "Cuscuta..."
"I've never heard of it." The peddler scratched his head, "Listen to the name, it's not a common plant in our place."
Jian Chen's hope was in vain.
It seems that they still have to rely on themselves, but they don't know where the probe will eventually point.
...It can't really be under the surface of the sea, can it?
Human beings who cannot swim shed bitter tears.
"but."
The man seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and said: "Why don't you ask the oldest fisherman here? He has lived for thousands of years, not only has he seen the most types of fish, but he is also familiar with all kinds of plants on this planet. "
"Perhaps it also includes the one you mentioned."
Jian Chen's eyes moved, as if he had found hope: "Thank you, how can I find him?"
The peddler glanced at the time, then at his own fish, and seemed to sigh: "Hey, I'll take you directly...Anyway, I'm sure I won't be able to sell any of them today."
When Jian Chen heard about it, his eyes fell on the huge fish stall.
The human lowered his head, took out a gold coin from his backpack, and handed it to the peddler: "This, how much can you buy?"
At Dulongxing, when the group of imperial businessmen were packing their treasures, they dropped a few gold coins in the corner. Before Jian Chen and Lei Jia left the Dragon’s Lair, they felt a little pity, so they sorted out the gold coins and put them at the bottom of the backpack. , so as to be a entanglement on the road.
Didn't expect it to come in handy today.
The moment he handed it to the vendor, the man's eyes widened in that instant.
He took the gold coin and was so surprised that he was speechless.
"Enough, enough to buy them all!"
The peddler instantly let go of the handle of his cart and handed it to Jian Chen: "You push this, and the cart is also given to you."
Jian Chen: "..."
He waved his hand, he was not interested in small fish, he just thanked the peddler for telling him this, and if he bought so many fish, how would he go on his way?
If it is used as rations for his own big black dragon, Lei Jia prefers to eat meat instead of fish.
The young man said, "No, just thank you for telling me and guiding me."
Hawker: "..."
What a little angel! ?
But before leaving, the man filled Jian Chen with a big bag full of fish.
Completely different from the ancient earth, the fish have been cut into strips and small pieces suitable for the entrance, neatly arranged in a pocket, like exquisite works of art.
And the meat is fresh and tender, it looks like the fish that was salvaged and killed that day.
Jian Chen was too embarrassed to refuse again, so he thanked her.
He took the bag with a heavy palm.
Guided by the hawker, they left the town and headed towards the shore of the island.
As the oldest fisherman, he is stationed on the edge of the island almost all the year round.
A small boat and several fishing nets constituted the old man's life.
When the peddler brought Jian Chen to the shore, the elderly fisherman was cleaning his wooden boat on the shore.
In the interstellar era, Jian Chen has seen countless high-tech ships that have sailed in the sea. They do not need to be manipulated, and they are made of special materials. Even if they hit a reef, they will never sink. It was the first time we met after coming to this era.
There was something inexplicably kind.
The fisherman glanced at them, although his eyes stayed on Jian Chen's face, but only for two seconds, he withdrew his eyes and continued his skillful movements.
Jian Chen and the fisherman looked at each other unexpectedly, so they took advantage of the situation and said, "Hello, I want to find..."
"Mermaid?" asked the fisherman.
The man seemed to have guessed what the human in front of him wanted to say: "Little guy, there are no mermaids on this planet, you came to the wrong place."
If you come to the wrong place, you must pay the price.
And the price,
It is that you can never leave this planet again.
...This is the second half of the sentence that the fisherman did not say.
Although Jian Chen didn't come here for the mermaid, he also received the message from the old man's words. He thought silently, so there is no mermaid on this planet.
It seems that few people have seen this ancient and mysterious creature.
"Abbe! No, this human is looking for a plant called Cuscuta, do you know what it is?"
The old man didn't raise his head. He was also dressed in the same style as the residents on the island. He was topless and wore old trousers. His voice was a bit vicissitudes, but he was full of air: "Is that the light yellow, dense mass?"
Jian Chen's eyes brightened: "Yes."
Looks like you are asking the right person!
"Do you know where it is?"
"I know." The fisherman washed the rag in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "It's not on this island. I have to cross the sea and go to a small island the size of a palm. There is a plant there."
The old man lowered his eyes and said lightly: "But the terrain here is complicated, you can't find it."
Jian Chen & Hawker: "..."
The atmosphere was at a deadlock for a while.
The young peddler rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Abbe, this is my friend who also helped me take care of the business. Can you find a way to give him a ride? I'll buy you a drink afterwards."
Fisherman: "What wine?"
Vendor: "The one you often go to."
Fisherman: "What wine?"
Hawker: "..."
Vendor: "The most expensive bottle you have been reluctant to drink."
Fisherman: "Okay, let's get on the boat."
Jian Chen: "..." I have never seen a fisherman who is so easy to compromise.
Jian Chen tugged at the corner of the peddler's clothes, and said in a low voice, "I'll pay you for the drink."
The peddler was stunned, shook his head quickly, and said with a smile: "No, to be honest, your gold coins are enough for this old man to drink for half his life."
Jian Chen blinked and nodded.
Jian Chen raised his foot and stepped onto the trembling wooden boat. Although it looked unreliable, when Jian Chen sat on it, he felt that the bottom plate was extremely firm. After all, the owner of the boat is a fisherman for thousands of years. The old driver should Reliable.
Thinking of this, Jian Chen felt a little relieved.
But just as Bennett followed closely and was about to step on the wooden boat, he was stopped by the fisherman: "You can't."
"This boat can only carry one person at a time."
Hearing this news, the little robot with a gradually gloomy face: "..."
Bennett: "I won't let him go to sea with you alone."
The fisherman frowned, and said resolutely: "Either no one will go, or he is the only one. I only care about the bottle of wine. You choose."
Bennett: "If you let me go to sea with you, I'll buy you that tavern."
Fisherman: "..."
The old man swallowed silently.
After a few seconds, the fisherman still shook his head: "Even if you say that, the boat can only accommodate one person, and you can't go unless you can fly."
Bennett raised his eyebrows and remained silent.
Jian Chen whispered: "Actually, he will."
For the first time, the fisherman looked up at the bionic man in surprise.
He coughed heavily, and said helplessly, "You haven't been to this sea, have you? After two hours, the whole planet will be plunged into darkness, and the sky will be dark blue without stars and light, and even a ray of light won't penetrate."
"Not only that, but there will also be fog rising from the sea. In fact, this little guy and I are sitting on a boat, and we can barely see each other clearly."
"You will definitely get lost if you keep up, or even get lost, which will cause trouble for me. It is useless other than that."
……
night?
But isn't it still a sunny day with the sun shining brightly?
The peddler next to him hurriedly explained to one person and one machine. From the man's mouth, Jian Chen and the others learned that the night of this planet lasts for 26 hours, and the day is extremely short.
Like a flash in the pan, only a short two hours.
And they just happened to land on this planet during these two hours.
Bennett obviously didn't have any information about this planet, but he couldn't follow Jian Chen to the palm-sized island, which made the little robot worried and annoyed.
Jian Chen comforted Zai Zai: "Nothing will happen, he is obviously an old driver."
Bennett: "..."
Jian Chen: "Even if something happens, you are all on this island. We reset the emergency contact a few days ago. Have you forgotten?"
Bennett looked down at his own optical brain, a little stupefied, although he frowned slightly, he still hesitated and nodded.
Just like that, Jian Chen got on the wooden boat.
He waved to Bennett on the shore, and Bennett and the peddler responded to the humans at the same time.
Seeing the anxious bionic man with tears in his eyes, the fisherman said helplessly, "...As for what? I'll be back in an hour at most."
The small wooden boat became farther and farther away from the shore, gradually becoming a small point.
And the sky is not as bright as when they came just now.
The originally cloudless clear sky seemed to be covered with a layer of smog, and the sky was a little dark, but it was not a sign before the rain, but a real, natural transition from day to night.
It seems that the fisherman did not lie to him.
The sea surface, which was originally light blue, also became darker and darker as the sky darkened, and it became more and more colorful.
Jian Chen chatted with the old man occasionally, although the fisherman was a taciturn person, he would still answer Jian Chen's questions one by one, such as why his pointer kept shifting, why the fisherman thought he was looking for a mermaid just now, because Has there been a steady stream of tourists coming here since then?
After understanding, it was discovered that the reason why this planet cannot be located by the pointer is because it has a special magnetic field, which can block all identification from the outside.
And when people really find this place and land bravely, they have already passed through the outermost magnetic field, and the pointer will return to normal.
As for the mermaid, the fisherman did not disclose more.
While paddling the oars, the old man said, "I don't know either. I have been a fisherman for almost 1000 years, and I have never encountered any mermaids as you mentioned."
Jane understands.
The fisherman in front of him didn't seem to want to chat more about this topic. The young man wondered if it was because the fisherman had already answered too many questions about mermaids, so he was instinctively bored and helpless.
So the young man stopped asking.
Instead, I stared at the sea level and scenery in the distance, looked at the sparkling water patterns drawn by the oars, and felt a little inexplicably comfortable as the pleasant and cool wind brushed against my ears.
However, Jian Chen soon discovered that the sky had gradually and completely darkened.
What the fisherman said just now is true. The stars in the sky are sparse, and not much light penetrates into the planet, which makes the sky dark and the water surface dark.
Only the island is shining with beautiful light, and the water lines drawn by the oars, and there is a layer of faint starlight on the surface, floating continuously.
And the boat seemed to have been carefully decorated by the fisherman. The outer surface of the cabin seemed to be painted with a special substance, which could emit a faint light even in the middle of the night.
Not only is the appearance dreamy and beautiful, but it can also faintly illuminate the direction within three meters and guide the direction of short distances.
Jian Chen felt as if he had come to a dreamy fairy tale country.
All kinds of wonderful scenery seem to be seen only in the fairy tale books they read when they were young.
But it is more real than fairy tales, the visual, auditory, tactile sensation of fingers brushing the soft water surface, the subtle sound, and the contrast of visual effects, this is probably a scene that Jian Chen will never forget in his life.
Although it was because of force majeure that he came to this planet, Jian Chen suddenly felt that when everything was settled, he might be able to take Justin and Dundun to this beautiful planet that makes people take their breath away for a vacation. .
After all, after traveling to the interstellar era, the three of them rarely had such moments.
The last real reunion was at the gate of the zoo.
Ye Siting truly changed back to human form freely. While the two were loving each other, the little panda crawled out of the villa and ran between the two of them.
That was the memory that Jian Chen couldn't help but raise his mouth every time he recalled it.
The sky had completely darkened, and after driving for so long, the mist that the old fisherman said earlier was almost easy to get lost, has not appeared for a long time.
The rising fog is very light, just like the faint lingering fog floating in the hot spring pool. Apart from adding artistic conception, it will not hinder the progress of the road and visual judgment.
A little doubt arose in Jian Chen's heart.
But he thought, maybe the fog was not at its thickest yet.
The old man's physical strength and energy seemed to be more abundant than he imagined. Even after rowing for such a long time, he did not feel tired.
If you look carefully, there is not even a little sweat on the fisherman's forehead. Even though he is old, he is no less energetic than the young man.
Time passed for a long time, Jian Chen turned on his temporary optical brain, and sent a message to Bennett:
[Don't worry, the sea level here is very stable. 】
The little robot quickly replied: [Is it dark around here?Will it hit a reef? 】
Jian Chen couldn't help laughing: [Although it's dark, the boat is bright, so we can see the road clearly. 】
Bennett: [Didn't it say there would be fog? 】
Jian Chen: [The fog here is not too thick, it should not be there yet. 】
There seemed to be silence for a long time.
A few minutes later, Bennett asked: [Is it there yet? 】
Jian Chen: [Not yet, I passed an island, but it was not as big as a palm. 】
Bennett: [But it's been an hour and a half. 】
【Didn't you say you'll be back in an hour? 】
Jian Chen paused, and he also remembered that not long ago, when the fisherman took him away from the shore, he casually said that the distance was not far, and he would be back in an hour at most.
But it's been so long now, isn't it here?
A little doubt rose in Jian Chen's heart, so he asked, "Auntie, haven't we arrived yet?"
While rowing the boat, the fisherman answered the young man's question even though he was a taciturn old man, saying, "Hurry up, hurry up."
Jian Chen pursed her lips and asked softly, "Bennet said, it's already more than one o'clock, didn't you say you'd be back in an hour at most?"
Jian Chen was really afraid that the old man would get lost in the dark, so he said in a small voice: "...Do you need me to use the detector to navigate?"
Fisherman: "..."
Time passed slowly.
Soon, they couldn't even see the huge island they had left from the first place, and the lights that almost lit up the entire planet on it.
Jian Chen propped his chin, looking at the water surface a little bored.
The hull drifts away.
This kind of wonderful journey that has never been experienced makes human beings even feel temporarily separated from the world.
Soon, Jian Chen even felt the slow passage of time. He estimated the time when Bennett sent him a message just now, and it was about two hours since they left the shore.
Bennett and his chat box stayed on the interface just now, and the little robot didn't send any more messages.
He seriously suspected that the old fisherman was drawing big cakes for him.
Could it be because of the bottle of wine, in fact, the old man himself can't remember where the dodder is, and now he is just testing left and right?
Jian Chen sighed imperceptibly.
It felt like I was on a pirate ship.
However, just as Jian Chen was in a daze, he suddenly heard the fisherman's voice.
"Late at night."
"They're coming out."
The old man muttered to himself.
"what?"
Jian Chen was stunned, as if he didn't hear the fisherman's words clearly.
But he heard the second half of the sentence in a trance, but obviously, the human being failed to understand what the old man was saying, so he sat up straight.
His sight also involuntarily drifted to the deep and quiet sea.
"Sorry little sir."
