Chapter 218: Water without a source

I am still standing here with Him, overlooking the blue sky, looking at the three thousand living beings in the floating world, but they are just a few.

Chu Tianhe can be considered a native of Jiutian Land, although his parents both belong to the northern continent. But it doesn't matter, more than three hundred years have made him forget their faces almost completely. He has traveled to various countries and frequently

Traveling on the sea route and seeing all the worldly sights, I finally felt tired.

He suddenly wanted to see the place where he once lived with his mother, so he went back. This place had changed a lot, and the entire village had been moved because the sea level in this area had risen.

.I heard that this island is "alive". He didn't understand the meaning of this sentence in the past, but now

You can vaguely feel that it is breathing slowly, and the sea surface rises and falls accordingly, but it is not so obvious. He moved once when he was very young, and he has no memory. He heard from his mother that he moved there when he was ten years old.

Once, he left the island to make a living. He came back several times, and probably moved there... He couldn't remember.

But he was very concerned about the place where his mother died, because two years before her death, she and a few scattered fishermen moved back to the beach where Chu Tianhe lived when he was fifteen. Standing on the beach, he felt

Speaking of which, it should be where the dilapidated little bed was. They used a unique seaside

Planting wood to build a house is not easy to get damp, but bedding is always prone to mold. Now, when the sea water comes in, the edge just touches the toe of his shoe. The rocks on the shore are covered with many barnacles, which are densely packed.

In the past, it was all a bare place, and no one would let go of the free delicious food.

Time always flies by.

He walked along the shore, advancing slowly on the gravel beach, occasionally picking up some colorful shells, like a child. The difference was that he would throw them back into the sea after holding them for a while, as if they were floating in the water——

Although this doesn't work on the sea. There is nothing worth remembering about him, except...

He was stunned there.

This quiet place that changed his taste when he was fifteen years old has now been submerged by the incoming sea water. The terrain in the past was different from the present, and it could even be said to be very different, and Chu Tianhe swore that he would never remember it wrong... Although

Three hundred years have passed.

But from this year onwards, he was unable to leave Jiutian Kingdom.

Was this the name Jiutian Kingdom used to be?

Some things in his memory have become blurred or rewritten. Moreover, people around him are experiencing the same thing without realizing it. Human beings are easily affected by the people around them, fragile and unstable creatures. The so-called three

People become tigers. If there are too many people who deny your opinion, you will become uncertain yourself.

From that day on, even ordinary words have gradually become distorted and deformed. Some people can understand it, while others can't. The same goes for currency. The gold and silver that were originally used here have disappeared without realizing it, leaving only the unique local minerals.

If it were others, it might be difficult to detect these changes subtly. But Chu Tianhe lived too long and lived too soberly. Strictly speaking, he is a very egoistic person, and this kind of ego can make people happy under extremely rare circumstances.

Stay awake and be sure of what you know about yourself. The pier was abandoned overnight, and only fishing boats that could not cross the sea were drifting on the beach. If asked in detail, they could not explain the reason. It seemed that everything was a coincidence.

Exceptional, just right.

So he found the God of Incense - the false god who had given him the incense to restore his soul.

"You are still alive." At that time, the Gandharva seemed a little surprised.

"You got what you wanted and got into your current position."

"You are still alone."

"Rather than this, please tell me how to get out of here."

"You can't leave."

The Gandharva didn't tell him much, he just scrawled about the barrier, which was a bit perfunctory. But judging from his attitude, it seemed that there was some wonderful big plan in progress. He seemed to be proud of it, but he was not. I don’t want to say too much to Chu Tianhe. Chu Tianhe is not a talkative person, but he can’t act according to his own will and is a little irritable.

"Since we are all going to be trapped here, shall I give you a job?"

Finally, the God of Fragrance said this.

After the conversation ended, Chu Tianhe left Xiangyuan. Over the years, he had long become a happy-go-lucky person. Even if his freedom was deprived of his freedom in disguise, his unhappiness was only temporary. He has since gained an identity - -Messenger of the gods. This is a boring job. The reason why the incense god entrusted it to him is also a little vague. It seems to be related to some kind of prophecy of the incense burner. It is a good thing to stay here. He will be in the future I saw the figure of Chu Tianhe in the mirage, and the God of Fragrance said so.

After that, life was ordinary for the next two or three years. He traveled all over this small Nine Heavens Kingdom, meeting all kinds of people. The so-called gods were not special, but he felt that they had some human characteristics. This was vividly shown in them. He showed no respect for those people. Most of the time, he only talked to the acting humans, which was fine. In these years, he had walked through all places except the place where the python god lived. Countless times, he didn't even know where Mahulaka was.

Jiutian Kingdom is like a huge lighthouse, but it is dark and silent. But it exists like this. People inside can't get out, but people from outside come in a steady stream - and then there is no news. The strangers Chu Tianhe has seen There were many, both good and bad, and he didn't care. One day, a thirty-five-year-old young man visited the God of Fragrance and set foot on the road to Wu Kingdom with him.

Surprisingly, they got lost.

This is something that has never happened before. Chu Tianhe has walked through the huge dense forest of Jiutian Kingdom countless times, and he knows all the drinkable water and edible food here. He also knows the way to identify the direction and time. There was no mistaking it. But what was unexpected was that he and the young man traveling with him got lost inexplicably.

"You won't lie to me, will you?" The young man complained just two days later.

"I don't need to lie to you." Chu Tianhe was not angry, "The money you have can't be used in Jiutian Kingdom, and besides, I don't have anything to covet from you. You and I don't have anything in Wu Kingdom." Conflict of interest.”

The young man stopped talking, but he was still full of doubts.

But no matter what, they couldn't get out of this strange forest sea. The environment felt strange to Chu Tianhe, and the resources were surprisingly few. Although the number of dangerous things had also been greatly reduced, the food was definitely not enough for the two of them. They With a limited supply of water and dry food, I wandered in the forest for ten days, and the dry food was all eaten on the fourth day. The rest of the edible things I could find were even more pitiful. For so many days, the sky was even more crowded. Not a drop of rain fell.

As time went by, hunger and hopelessness pushed the two to the edge of collapse little by little.

The young man was complaining, but why didn't Chu Tianhe feel irritable? Conveying the message was secondary. Even if he was immortal, if he was stabbed, or if he died of thirst and starvation slowly like now, he would die sooner or later.

Although he has lived for so long, he has not only made enough money, he has even made a fortune

Although it was not in the sense of wealth, it was extremely frustrating to just die. The young man from the northern continent was full of complaints, and both of them were clearly hungry.

I don't know where he got the strength to keep chattering.

Unfortunately, this guy was not lucky. He ignored the advice and provoked a beast that he shouldn't have provoked. His foot was bitten and he walked with a limp. Two days later, on the twelfth day, his

The wound still hasn't improved at all, and there are even weird maggots crawling in the flesh.

"You can only cut them off." Chu Tianhe said simply. "It will be difficult to find them after they turn into pupae. If you wait longer, the adults will completely burrow into your skin. Now they are just moving around the wound."

"No!" the young man shouted, "impossible! You want me to bleed to death and then take away my gold!"

Chu Tianhe realized that his mind had begun to become confused. Because the young man actually knew very well that gold was of no use here, and no matter how much he complained before, he would not be as emotional and wasteful of energy as he is now. This kind of

Big bugs

It probably secretly lays eggs in the wound at night. It will only use its anesthetic to make people lose the sense of pain and will not cause insanity. Maybe there is another reason for what makes him crazy, but Chu Tianhe knows that he is "slow"

type, and did not feel this change.

But, I really want him to shut up.

They had both been dehydrated for too long, and their throats were unbearably thirsty. These days, the two of them were always spinning in the same direction, and the plants that stored water had been emptied out for a long time. But the sky did not rain, which made Chu Tian

He Shang is a burning pain in the throat of a human body.

At night, the young man woke up suddenly. He used to get up every now and then to urinate, even though they didn't add much new fluid during the day. Chu Tianhe would be woken up occasionally, and sometimes not. But now he's awake - of course

, he didn’t want to be responsible for the food and daily life of this thirty-year-old man like a nanny taking care of his children, and pretended not to see him every time.

But today, he heard a rustling sound.

The young man turned his back and quietly chewed something there. Chu Tianhe felt nervous, thinking that something was broken, because he knew that many people would bite their own fingers after losing their minds in the forest.

Moreover, he also saw those withered bones in the forest, and many people's finger bones had cracks from being bitten by teeth.

He patted the young man on the shoulder, and the man turned around in panic.

There were still remnants of dry food hanging from the corners of his mouth.

"..."

"What a ruthless and unjust person. I didn't abandon you when you were injured. Is this how you repay kindness with revenge? So every night in the past, you were also..."

The young man was embarrassed and frightened. Chu Tianhe stood up and took out the sheath of the short knife he carried with him. His face was expressionless and he did not even feel angry, but this did not mean that he would let him go.

"Wait! I, I just, I still have, listen to me, I'm not - I, I'll give you all my money, and... No, no, stop, help! Come here!

!save--"

Blood is also a source of fresh water.
