Chapter 38 The Timer of the Era

"Oh, I don't want you to get up. I didn't sleep last night because my legs still had cramps." Tian Lei hurriedly turned around and greeted her. While helping the woman into the room, he turned his head and greeted Nan Jingcheng: "Brother Cheng, Xiaomeng, come in quickly. .”

Meng Fuyou raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked Nan Jingcheng, "Pregnant?"

As the two walked in, Nan Jingcheng explained to her: "She is called Shengqing, and she is the one in our guild who has been in the corridor for the longest time. She has lived in it for more than four years. Later, she fell in love with Tian Lei, and the two decided to Married, anyway, as long as the economy is sufficient in the corridor, there is no big difference from the real world outside, and they don't have any relatives outside, so they decided to stay and live together in the corridor."

"Can babies be born in the rest area of ​​the corridor?" Meng Fuyou was a little surprised.

Nan Jingcheng nodded: "Yes, there is a precedent."

After exchanging pleasantries with the couple, Tian Lei went to cook lunch for Sheng Qing, while Nan Jingcheng and Meng Fuyou each ordered takeaway.

"Everything else is fine, but the rules of eating are a bit too inhumane. It's difficult for relatives and friends to have a meal together." I have to place an order and pay for it, otherwise I won’t be able to eat it.”

After lunch, it was almost time for Meng Fuyou. When the taxi arrived, Nan Jingcheng put her luggage in the trunk, thought for a while, and leaned on the window and said to her, "Do you need me to go with you? Do you want me to go with you?" A girl is afraid of not being safe."

Meng Fuyou: "Don't worry, I can do it, thank you."

Nan Jingcheng: "Okay, call me if you have anything to do. I've sent you the location here. I'll stay here for five days. If you're done and ready to come back, come back here to find me. We Let's go back to Hanshui together."

Meng Fuyou nodded: "Okay."

After the car drove away, Nan Jingcheng returned to the small building, went up the stairs, and entered a small reception room on the second floor.

Inside is a tall man, wearing a somewhat retro Chinese tunic suit, with a cropped head, standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, teasing the starling bird in the cage.

"Brother Duan." Nan Jingcheng called him, the man turned around, and said with a smile: "Ah Cheng is here, in fact, there is no need to be so anxious, the plane will come early in the morning, let's get up early ? Sit down."

This man is Duan Yirong, another founder of the Daybreak Guild and another member who reached the seventh floor.

"I specially called you here this time, mainly to tell you one thing." After the two sat down, Duan Yirong said straight to the point: "I don't know if you have noticed the big bell tower on the top floor of the castle in each round. The clock is actually an epoch timer."

"Timer?" Nan Jingcheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"This is what I heard from my seniors when I was in the last guild." Duan Yirong looked a little sad, with a slight worry shrouded in his brows, "The time left before is still long, and it is also because I have never experienced it myself. But, so I haven't taken it seriously, but recently, seeing Ah Qing's belly getting bigger day by day, this matter keeps popping into my mind repeatedly, and I still want to tell you."

"When I first came in, I was in the Luhai Guild, which has been disbanded now, but at that time there was a senior in the guild who survived from the ninth floor and knew a lot of things. He once said that the rest area in the corridor is actually not static. , every once in a while, the survival index environment will be randomly selected and replaced. From one to twelve o'clock on the clock dial, it represents twelve levels. The smaller the number, the lower the survival rate, and the larger the number, the greater the survival rate, for example The environmental world we are in now has a survival index of twelve, safety, prosperity, and no war or famine.”

Nan Jingcheng quickly understood, "You mean, the era of twelve o'clock may be coming to an end soon?"

"There are 32 days left." Duan Yirong sighed and continued: "The big clock tower is the timer of the times. The hour hand represents the survival index, and the minute hand is counting down. Each grid represents 30 days, that is to say Each era lasts at most sixty months, which is five years, and only exists for at least one month. When the time of an era ends, the clock tower will randomly turn the pointer again to determine the survival index and duration of the next new era."

The house was very quiet, the starling bird flapped its wings, tilted its head and repeated the words of its master: "New era, new era."

"The senior said that we are very lucky. This twelve o'clock era lasted the longest time in history, a full five years." Duan Yirong unconsciously turned the jade wrench on his thumb, almost talking to himself: "Actually, I have thought about persuading Ah Qing and Leizi to have children later, at least wait until the era resets and the situation becomes clearer. If by any chance, the era when the survival rate is very low is drawn... But Ah Qing's physical condition has been constantly changing. Not very good, this child is a complete surprise, if you miss him, maybe you will never have him again, so I have been holding back and haven't been able to say this."

"This is the end of the matter, there is nothing to do about it." Nan Jingcheng patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Duan, don't be too anxious, the era is just reset, since it is random, everything is still unknown .”

Duan Yirong sighed again, "It's fine if it's just a slight decline in the quality of life. What I'm afraid of is getting a very low survival index... I hope our luck will be better."

Nan Jingcheng: "Even in an era when the survival index is lower, with so many of us, keeping a child should not be a big problem, don't worry."

At night, the wind blew up, Nan Jingcheng lay on the bed, staring at the half-haired moon behind the clouds for a while, it seemed that it was going to rain.

Both he and Meng Fuyou had long-term residence permits in Hanshui City, and they could sleep in an empty room, and there was no need to pay again.

The man glanced at the phone. There was no message or call. He turned off the screen and closed his eyes.

Tian Lei and Sheng Qing didn't know anything about Meng Fuyou, they only knew that she went to Jiuzhaigou for fun, and Nan Jingcheng was waiting for her here.

When eating at noon the next day, he kindly looked at Nan Jingcheng's expressionless face, and joked: "Brother Cheng, why didn't you go with Xiaomeng? Wouldn't it be a pity to wait?"

Tian Lei put the cut fruit in front of Chengqing, "Didn't Brother Duan ask Brother Cheng for something?"

"I didn't expect Xiaomeng to be such an iconic girl. When she came in with Brother Cheng, she really matched well." Shengqing ignored her husband who was careless in some aspects, and ate an apple. Meaningfully said: "Brother Cheng, do you have something on your mind?"

"It's nothing, just thinking about something, don't worry about me." Nan Jingcheng returned to his senses, and smiled lightly.

"The feeling of waiting for someone is the worst." Sheng Qing clicked his tongue and covered his mouth with a chuckle.

Tian Lei still didn't understand, looked at his daughter-in-law, "What are you talking about?"

Time passed day by day, until the evening of the fifth day, Meng Fuyou didn't come back, nor did any news come from her.

There is nothing wrong with what you said kindly, the time waiting for someone is really difficult.

Nan Jingcheng glanced at his phone, hesitating whether to send a message to ask about the situation, even if Meng Fuyou found that person and decided not to come back, he should know for sure.

Nan Jingcheng still feels very sorry for this teammate who was found with great difficulty.

The sky was getting darker, and the lights of various small shops on the main street were brightly lit up. Nan Jingcheng was about to go back to his house, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure slowly walking over from the other side of the street.

Meng Fuyou's overall state was obviously a bit depressed, completely different from the full expectation when he went there, probably because this trip was not smooth.

When she slowly came to her, Nan Jingcheng went down the stairs, stood in front of her, and asked softly: "What's wrong, it's so ruined, can't you find it?"

Meng Fuyou pursed her lips, not wanting to speak very much.

Nan Jingcheng asked her again: "Have you eaten?"

Meng Fuyou shook her head.

The man sent the box in her hand into the house before coming out, "Come on, let's eat something first."

The food in Tiandu has very local characteristics. The taste made by NPCs is almost the same as that in the real world. Nan Jingcheng took Meng Fuyou to a small street shop nearby, which is a cold pot skewers.

After serving the table, the aroma was overflowing. Meng Fuyou didn't feel very hungry at first, but now she smelled the aroma of the food and realized that her stomach was growling. The more she ate, the more appetizing she became.

She buried her head in eating the meat and ordered another bottle of ice soda.

"I saw the photo that day, and thought the one in Jiuzhaigou was the firefly grass." Meng Fuyou threw the bamboo stick into the bucket and said slowly: "It looks like a small lantern, and it smells faintly, which always attracts people. The fireflies get in, so from the outside it looks like the grass is glowing. But there are no fireflies in there at all, and the grass doesn't smell good."

Nan Jingcheng never thought that Meng Fuyou would take the initiative to tell him this. He was a little surprised. Through the previous relationship, it is not difficult to see that Meng Fuyou's mouth is actually very tight. If she didn't want to say it, no one would be able to ask.

"But in fact, even if you really find the firefly grass, it's not very useful. It can only prove that it is a place that you may have been to." Meng Fuyou took a big mouthful of ice soda and breathed a long comfortable sigh of relief, "We still have to Find a way to get that card."

In just a short while, she seemed to have regained her form.

After filling their stomachs, the two walked back side by side. When they passed the entrance of the inner block, Nan Jingcheng stopped in his tracks. After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and seemed to be calling for a taxi.

"Huh? Aren't you going back?" Meng Fuyou gave him a strange look.

"Anyway, there's nothing to do when I go back, so I'll take you to a place." Nan Jingcheng played tricks and didn't tell her the exact location.

The taxi drove all the way, and the interlaced light and shadow projected through the glass window on Meng Fuyou's delicate face, which was so beautiful that it was unreal. Her phone vibrated, and when she opened it, she found that someone in the Lixiao group was circled by her.

[188 Lion Man: @南景成@孟茶悠, what's going on with you two!Abandon me and go out to play? ?What about teammate friendship, teammate love? 】

[Crow: @188狮子男, it's been four or five days, and you just connected to the Internet in your village? 】

[Shishi: @蒙茶悠, isn’t Jiuzhaigou particularly beautiful? ! 】

[Difficult but: @188狮子男@诗诗@鹤雨@唐海斌, why didn’t the four of you come together, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, how lively it is~]

[Shishi: Wow, Sister Qing has appeared, so rare, Sister Qing, have you been spying on the screen all this time! 】

[Difficulty: No, after having a baby, I rarely play with my phone. Leizi is too strict. 】

Looking at the news in the group, Meng Fuyou smiled, circled Zhuo Shishi, and answered very beautifully, circled Lu Mingyan again, and sent out a bunny tongue out emoji.

It was about eight o'clock when they arrived at their destination.

"Tiantai Mountain Scenic Area?" Meng Fuyou looked at the big stone pillar landmark in front and turned to ask him.

"This is a very famous valley of fireflies. I've been here once before, and it's especially beautiful at night." Nan Jingcheng opened the strategy map to identify the location, and said, "Come on, go in and have a look."

There are almost no bright lights in the scenic area, and the forest maintains the most original ecological state. The road Nan Jingcheng chose has fewer NPC tourists and is relatively secluded. Walking along the small wooden stairs, under the dim light, you can walk slowly. Slowly, you can see the green fireflies all over the mountains and plains, some are hidden among the grass leaves, and some are flying slowly, more dazzling than the starry sky.
