Hal watched for a moment, but the man was incoherent and didn't say anything useful. It seemed like there were just a few words going back and forth.
The man was completely immersed in his own world. No matter what he said or moved in front of him, it was completely useless. Even when he was slapped and hit, he had no reaction at all, as if he had no consciousness at all.
It was obviously impossible to ask anything from him in such a state.
Turning his perspective, Chu Cheng realized that the young man was holding Hal's hand tightly, looking very scared.
Hal patted him on the shoulder. Although he didn't make a sound, he obviously conveyed the meaning of "don't be afraid". The young man raised his head and looked at him. Sure enough, he let out a soft breath, feeling a little relieved.
Hal led the boy to move forward. Chu Cheng thought about finding two more people to inquire about the "Stardust Land", but before he asked, he had already vaguely anticipated the result and didn't have high expectations.
Sure enough, when I found a few more people, they all had similar reactions. They either looked at them and giggled, or they talked nonsense and said something that was incomprehensible. In short, most of them were unconscious and no one even noticed.
There is someone in front of me, let alone answering questions.
This is strange. Could it be possible that all the people on this planet are crazy?
After discovering that the people in this place seemed to be almost the same, Chu Cheng did not waste any time to ask more questions, and directly operated the Green Lantern to take off again. He thought it would be better to fly to another place on the planet to find people. Such a big planet cannot be
There are only people living in such a small village, and it's impossible to say if someone could speak in another place.
Although the Lantern Ring has a speed limit in the atmosphere, as one of the veteran-level wall-mounted weapons in Zhenglian, the flying speed cannot be slowed down. The radius of the planet Xinglan is not as good as that of the Earth, and it does not take much effort to go around the world.
Not long after flying again, the two found a small village again. But when they went down and walked around, they found that the situation was not much different from what they had just been there. The aliens they encountered were either dumb or stupid, and none of them could speak.
of.
Thoughts flashed through Chu Cheng's mind, wondering if there was something wrong with the planet's environment that would lead to intellectual disability, or was it someone who did it intentionally?
When they took off again, what they saw was still a blue ocean. It looked like a beautiful and vibrant planet full of birds and flowers. But looking back now, they felt completely different from when they first came down. They felt that there was actually something hidden beneath the surface of vitality.
Dead air.
The people here seem to be alive, but in fact it is not clear whether they are dead or alive. The whole planet is eerie, like a ferocious beast that chooses people to eat.
"I don't like this place." The boy whispered, "Can we leave?"
"Just for a while, look elsewhere. If you still can't find it, leave." Chu Cheng reassured.
The young man was obviously scared, but he still nodded obediently and said nothing. He was wrapped up and huddled in the green bubble. It seemed that only this transparent cover could give him some sense of security.
He looked left and right in this cover, looking outside unconsciously. Suddenly he saw something, and he couldn't help but screamed: "Huh!?"
"how?"
Chu Cheng released the forward button, Hal stopped the car, and the green bubbles hovered in the air.
"There, there just now," the young man said vaguely, with confusion written on his face, "It seems! It looks like it!"
It turned out that when Green Lantern was taking off, the bubble they were riding in flew over a forest. He caught a glimpse and suddenly felt that the place looked familiar. It looked like the place where he and his grandfather grew up.
It was luck. They happened to land in a nearby village to investigate the situation, and they would be taking off again. Otherwise, if Green Lantern flew directly through the air at the speed of flying, it wouldn't matter how familiar he was with this environment.
Maybe you recognize it?
After hearing what he said, Chu Cheng felt that it might be the most important clue in this trip, so he changed his course and headed over there.
The young man led the way, and the further he walked, the more he found that everything here was extremely familiar. He had grown up in this place as long as he could remember, and until the day he parted with his grandfather, that was all he had in the world, so even though he had been away for some time,
It’s still a familiar road.
Green Lantern followed him and walked around the forest for a while, and soon a small house appeared in front of him.
Similar to the previous huts in villages and towns, they were also built with bare hands and were simple and rough. But when the boy saw it, he felt extremely friendly. It was undoubtedly his childhood residence. He shouted "Grandpa" and rushed in through the door.
But it is conceivable that his grandfather is not inside.
The furnishings in the house were very simple. There were a few pieces of furniture that Chu Cheng had never seen before, so he couldn't guess their use at the moment, but the texture was also very rough and old. There was a heavy layer of dust in the house, and there was no sign of anyone living there.
It may be true that since the child left, his grandfather has never come back.
Chu Cheng still doesn't know who his grandfather is, but if this child is a remnant, then his grandfather must be the same. There are probably many people looking for the old man, and he may not know which force has fallen into the hands of the old man.
Just like when he found this child, he was locked up in some forbidden place and never saw the light of day.
Or maybe the old man was more alert and hid in another place. But Chu Cheng thought that if this was the case, the other party would definitely have no reason to escape without taking the child with him, so the former was more likely.
The young man looked at the things in the room in a daze, realizing that everything was almost the same as when he left.
He walked to one side of the wall and put his hand on the wall. Chu Cheng saw several parallel scratches carved on the wall. He didn't understand what they meant for a moment. But then he watched the boy walk away.
When I got to those scratches, I straightened my back and leaned against the wall to compare, and I immediately understood.
This is measuring the child's height.
Presumably, the children would stand against the wall every once in a while to compare themselves, and every time they grew taller, they would scratch a mark on the wall. These scratches seemed to silently tell a story that time cannot wash away, about an old man and
An ordinary story about a child living together in this primitive old forest.
The young man's expression was dazed for a moment. Chu Cheng operated Hal to exit the room, but did not disturb him for the moment, but activated the green light perspective again.
Although the dust here does look like no one has been there for many years, and he thought that since the leader of the second Nakrafar Alliance picked up the boy from here, he must have searched for all the clues that should be searched. In the past so many years
It is even less likely to leave any valuable traces.
But after all, the naked eye may miss clues, and the light ring is much more reliable. So whether it is necessary or not, Chu Cheng has developed the habit of frequently switching viewing angles to scan.
Unexpectedly, this scan found nothing in this hut, but other unexpected things were noticed.
"Smart biological reaction detected." The light ring gave a prompt.
This is not surprising at first. To the southeast of this forest is the town they just visited. Although the residents there are stupid, they are also regarded as intelligent creatures by the Lantern Ring.
But the responses scanned this time came from the completely opposite direction from the villages and towns.
Chu Cheng still remembered that when he looked down from the air just now, the place seemed to be behind a dense forest. It was deserted and empty with no human eyes visible, and it seemed that there was only a cliff.
