Dow and Carbon-Based Monkey Breeding Guidelines

Chapter 812

Zhou Yu did hear the sound of water.

In the rhythmic clang of the train, a small but coherent noise was mixed in at some point.It was the rushing sound of stirred shallow water.That sound didn't come from the side, but seemed to come from the bottom of the foot.

Zhou Yu rushed to the window.Because of his eagerness to forget himself, he actually forgot his foot injury, staggered and fell two steps, and only managed to hold onto the window sill of the train in time.After opening the window, the sound of the rushing water became more and more clear.

He poked his head out in the gust of wind, looking at the track below him.The night was very dark, making it difficult to discern the road below, but the silvery-white waves sparkling under the moonlight had undoubtedly submerged what should have been the train tracks.

"I suggest you close the window." Li Li said from behind, "The process of entering Hanoi is very fast. If we don't prepare early, we will have to swim in the car."

At first, Zhou Yu didn't particularly understand what she meant.During the short period of time when he was puzzled, the carriage vibrated violently, which was like the bumps caused by the collision at the junction when the train suddenly changed its direction.

The ground began to slope, and the train was sprinting down the ramp to the bottom.The magnitude of the drop was so great that Zhou Yu felt like he was on a roller coaster.

In contrast, the water level of the shallow mountain stream that overflows the track is rising at an alarming rate.First the wheels running at high speed, then the body and the window sill.Before the water flooded through the window opening, Zhou Yu had to close the glass sash, and instead looked around the car, looking for something that could fill the gap in the window.

Li Li was still by the bed, looking at him with interest.

"I really don't know what you're looking for, sir."

"Lifebuoy. People with disabled legs can't swim well."

Because he was flustered and confused, Zhou Yu answered almost without thinking.Li Li turned his head and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Mr. Zhou Yu, the way you speak now reminds me of your girlfriend. I didn't realize that the body will have such an obvious impact on the character. However, I don't think it is worth looking for a lifebuoy now. I guarantee that the interior of the car is absolutely dry. of."

"Are you kidding? Let alone the windows, the train doors alone cannot be completely waterproof..."

Zhou Yu turned his head in response.He could see that the water had completely covered the top of the window.However, not a single drop of water seeped through the old windows with gaps at least two millimeters wide.The entire carriage was like a strange submarine, which continued to dive safely and soundly under the unknown depth of water.

When Zhou Yu was staring at this scene in a daze, Li Li said again: "Actually, if you fail to close the window in time, the water here will not enter the car. That phenomenon is very ornamental, like The outside of the car is against a wall. Even so, I recommend keeping the windows closed, because if you put your hand out of the window, you will be sucked into the river in a split second, never to return. On my second boarding I've tried putting things out of the window on this route, and they've disappeared without a trace, living or dead, and all locating or recovery devices will fail when they come in contact with the river."

"This really looks like what Styx should look like."

"If I had said it, it's more like a river of time. When a train enters the river, time stops for everything on board. I mean like this old gentleman, terminating everything that can be seen or seen. Unseen changes."

"But the two of us weren't suspended."

"We are special." Li Li said, "If it weren't for this, we would be on a journey of no return tonight."

Zhou Yu looked at her and repeated: "Special?"

"It may be pretentious to say so, but I think it is true. We have privileges in this city, sir."

Li Li pondered for a while, and then continued: "Maybe now is the right time, I think you should also have the right to know about this matter. Mr. Zhou Yu, I, and Ms. Zhou Yu before you appeared, the two of us and Hong The managers of the forest area are the same, they are all 'lords'. Before being occupied by the soil eaters, Ms. Zhou Yu's management area was the area west of Xinyue Road. I think you have more or less noticed this."

As Li Li said, after hearing her words, Zhou Yu didn't feel too surprised.This is simply a matter of course.Since Zhou Yu has such a close relationship with Li Li in the recording, she can be sure that she understands Li Li as a "lord". The most reasonable explanation for the two being able to contact and cooperate with each other is that they have the same identity and role.

"In other words, as long as the lord is not affected by the phenomenon here?"

"It's not certain. While we won't be pausing for a train to enter the river, sticking your hand out the window is still unpredictable. I wouldn't advise you to take any risky actions."

Following her suggestion, Zhou Yu didn't open the window again, but just stood by the window to observe the scene outside.At this time, the train seemed to have penetrated into a mountain tunnel, and the outside was pure darkness.Only when Zhou Yu looked up, he could find the shimmering water surface rippling gently.

There seems to be no floating algae and impurities in the clear water, even fish have never seen it.At first, the water surface like the aurora canopy was only a little higher than the roof of the car, but after a few minutes, it has completely reached an unattainable level.

The train continues to dive deep. The feeling of "being in the water" has become very weak, more like walking through a night sky where the stars have dissolved.

At this time, the old man who was riding with them remained motionless, maintaining the original smiling face.If an uninformed person looked at it, he would definitely regard him as a lifelike wax figure.

When looking back at this scene, Zhou Yu had a strange thought.He actually felt that the old man's appearance at the moment possessed a certain sense of beauty.So what is going on?The appearance of the elderly cannot be described as "beautiful".He has all the characteristics of an old man abandoned by time, with wrinkles caused by loose skin, dark skin decorated with age spots and thick calluses.

However, when he stopped all changes and precisely wrote down the emotions and states of human beings at a certain static moment, he suddenly seemed to become some kind of artwork.If the living person is used as the benchmark, the old body is really nothing to appreciate, but once it is positioned as a statue, it seems that the beauty and ugliness of the subject is irrelevant. Just because of the perfect and lifelike "imitation", the obstinate wood and stone have an intuitive feeling of beauty.In this way, the source of the aesthetic feeling is like the act of "imitation" itself.

While staring at the old man, Zhou Yu's thoughts drifted endlessly like this.After an unknown amount of time, the inclined train changed its orientation and began to feel like it was going uphill.

"We're almost there." Li Li said.

Like the starry sky, the surface of the water is falling little by little.When the water level dropped below the window sill, Zhou Yu opened the window and stretched out his head to look at the scene outside.

A wide river ran across the rear of the train.Under the moonlight, the river was rushing forward, not knowing where it was going.The fact that the track runs straight out of Hanoi is enough to make any underwater tunnel engineer dumbfounded.

He turned his head to look ahead of the train.

The lights of the mountain depression that were far away before were now in the direction directly in front of the two of them.The city behind the River of Time actually looks somewhat familiar.

A female voice with an extremely mechanical sense came from the radio.Until then, Zhou Yu suddenly remembered that he had never seen the staff on this train.Even when the train departs, the synthetic voices that come from the radio are all stiff and obvious.It's not like the announcement in the train, but like the automatic announcement of the subway.

The mechanical voice repeatedly announced to the inside of the car:

"The terminal, Cage City, is approaching. All passengers, please get ready to get off."
