Doomsday Totem

Chapter 628 Mirror Sea
Playing back the whole incident, it is probably that Tie Slag, who is about to go to the end of the world, entrusts Tie Ling to Feng Yun, and Feng Yun keeps his promise and raises Tie Ling.

So, what Feng Yun did was to keep his promise, or to care for Tie Ling from the bottom of his heart, or a combination of both?
Also, who is more responsible for this friendship?

From the point of view of people from the Far East, they are more inclined. Feng Yun not only kept his promise, but also brought up Tie Ling because of his own feelings.Both Tie Slag and Tie Ling owed Feng Yun a kindness.

From the point of view of westerners, they are more willing to analyze their feelings from a rational point of view, either because Feng Yun kept his promise, or because Feng Yun cared from his heart.From the beginning to the end, only one party owes favors, not both parties.

The difference between the two lies in the emotional tendency or the rational tendency.

In the deep-sea fisherman's point of view, "promise from the deep sea" is the major premise of everything.Feng Yun kept his promise to Tie Slag, regardless of whether he knew he liked Tie Ling or not, he would bring him up. This is an agreement between a man and a man.To put it another way, if Feng Yun would take the initiative to ask for Tie Ling to be raised out of his own sympathy or love, that is the bond between the adoptive father and the adopted daughter, and has nothing to do with Tie Slag.Deep-sea fishermen dislike ambiguous human relationships the most, and prefer simple, direct and clear ones.

People from the Far East are just the opposite. Because of the problem of "face", they don't like to put their feelings on the table for analysis, which leads to unclear who is the first responsible person.

The main reason for this difference is that people from the Far East have a "large range of moral flexibility".Unlike people in other regions, they like to write the already clear moral standards into the law as much as possible.

Right is right, wrong is wrong.

Because of the large range of flexibility, the moral standards of Far Easterners are extremely complicated.Often the same thing, there will be a variety of ways of understanding, and the conclusions drawn are completely different.Just like a very popular saying in the Far East: "The public says the public is right, and the woman says the woman is right."

Also because of similar problems, a large number of "green tea whores" appeared in the Far East.They openly take advantage of the admiration of their suitors, enjoy their services for free, accept their gifts, but do not give anything in return, and take it for granted.In addition to green tea whores, there are also "Internet trolls". Their moral standards are very different from the mainstream of society, but they are widely supported.

But among the people from the west, the central region, and the people from the northern wilderness, the moral standard has a unique attribute, and there is nothing to dispute.

But then again, the way people from the Far East get along based on diverse moral standards also has its own advantages.

On the one hand, people from the Far East are very inclusive, no matter where people come to live in the Far East, they can make friends.No matter what kind of moral idea, there is always someone who agrees with it.Those who have made mistakes also have the opportunity to be accepted again.

On the other hand, on the premise that both parties are conscious, getting along will be more comfortable than people from other regions.It's just that when one party is not conscious or both parties are not conscious, getting along will become very bad, because there is the possibility of shirking each other's responsibilities.

For example, Feng Yun was sick in bed, and Tie Slag didn't come to visit, so he reasoned that the person being raised was Tie Ling, and Tie Ling should come.And Tie Ling didn't come to visit, reasoning that Feng Yun was only entrusted by Tie Slag.Because of this, there is a saying in the Far East: "It is difficult for an honest official to break up housework."

Between thoughts, a large stretch of ships appeared on the sea level ahead.They are docked together, connecting each other's decks with chain bridges.From a distance, large and small ships crossed vertically, like a rusty steel jungle.

The towering masts are towering ancient trees, the criss-crossing iron chains are spider webs, or the beards of banyan trees, and the cabins of different sizes are bushes.People walking on decks and rope bridges are busy ants.

About half an hour later, after cumbersome notifications and procedures, the fleet docked at the pier, and Iron Slag and others boarded the legendary isolated island.

At first glance, the most impressive thing is the rust, which is almost everywhere.Red cross signs are hung everywhere on the pier, with various medical advertisements written, "Tetanus prevention, only one silver coin is needed", "Bauhinia Pharmaceutical Company's tetanus vaccine is absolutely genuine", "Authentic Longcheng official vaccine, cheap For sale", "Ancestral Tetanus Vaccine, No Deception".

This wharf is formed by more than ten [-]-ton ships in a semi-arc. Passing through the front bridge deck and walking on the rickety chain bridge, you can see the hull of the opposite ship, with various advertisements graffitied with colorful paint. slogan.

Those in the service industry, "Anchor Bar, a haven for prodigal sons on the sea." "Black Ship Bar, has good stuff!" "Skull Island Bar, has everything you need." "Treasure Island Hotel, luxury on the sea." Big hotel, three thousand girls accompany you to swim in the sea." "Cruise tickets for sale, communication number..."

In the leasing industry, "Luxury yacht rental, built-in five-star decoration, plus two beautiful crew members." "Cheap yacht, rented by the day." "Speedboat rental."

There are also freight industry, "Small freight ships, billed by the hour." "Bridge ships, platform ships for rent." "Ocean freight, your choice."

In the Mirror Sea, investment companies extract fuel oil, which is then shipped around the world by ship.They can cooperate with large fuel oil companies, such as HH Company, or directly cooperate with oil-consuming units, such as power plants, refineries and so on.

After walking across the chain bridge, a group of children gathered around and sold Jinghai specialties to Tie Slag and others.Mainly some cheap fish bones, ornaments and handicrafts made of conch shells.Really good products, such as deep blue pearls, mirror sea sawtooth shark teeth, etc., can only be seen in the store.

Iron Floating Island has a strong commercial atmosphere.On the one hand, this is a transfer station for fuel cargo; on the other hand, Mirror Sea is a purely human plane with very few troops.

The Eltas cannot survive here, nor can they exploit the oil fields in the sea.There is no way for bees and ants to inhabit and forage here.Except for some dangerous sea creatures, it is basically safe.

Although it is a high-level plane, the mirror sea is much safer than the bottomless abyss.Most marine creatures are very gentle in character. For example, the deep-sea blue whale, despite its huge size, looks like an island, but it is not very aggressive. When it encounters an iron floating island, it will actively avoid it.Another example is the equally huge Shidao sea turtle, which moves slowly. Once it is bombarded by human torpedoes, it immediately turns around and flees.

Since humans entered the Mirror Sea, they have only encountered three major crises.The first time was the "Wrath of the Sea God". The specific reason for it was unknown, it was a huge wave hundreds of meters high, pushing it flat.The iron floating island was washed away on the spot, and nearly a million people were buried in the sea; the other time was "sea crucian carp migration", countless sea crucian carp passed through the iron floating island, which lasted three months, and it was difficult for ships to move, which caused serious damage to shipping. Destructive impact; the last time it happened 50 years ago, a giant moray eel thousands of meters long and over 30 meters in diameter hit the iron floating island, and lightning shot into the sky.Tens of thousands of crew and passengers were instantly burned to ashes by the high-voltage current.

On the whole, Mirror Sea is the freest and safest place in the Yincheng world.

The first is freedom. Except for the gate of Niord and the isolated island within a radius of [-] nautical miles, the entire Mirror Sea is classified as a low-security area. The world convention is invalid. As long as the fist is hard enough, you can do whatever you want.The second is safety. Although the Mirror Sea is free, ships must be resupplied on isolated islands or pass through the gate of Niord.Once caught, there is almost nowhere to escape.So everyone is very conscious and try not to do illegal things.As for those notorious pirates, they will never come in.Although the sea of ​​mirrors is vast and boundless, the opening is very narrow, and entering is like throwing yourself into a trap.

Iron Slag's first stop when he arrived at Jinghai was naturally the bar.In the world of Silver City, bars are a combination of catering, rest, and intelligence collection. Whenever you go to a strange place, it is right to go to the bar.Iron Slag is now the head of the legion, so naturally he won't go to that kind of small bar where he hangs out at the bottom.Although the price there is cheap, there are many surprises. Even if you have enough strength, you will find it troublesome.After walking through several chain bridges, they followed the road signs along the way to the Iron Anchor Bar.

Looking up, this is a huge cruise ship with colorful flags fluttering above it. Some men and women wearing beach pants and beach skirts are leaning on the railings drinking drinks, basking in the sun and blowing the sea breeze, like a leisurely and comfortable seaside scenery painting.

On the building-like deck, there are many waiters in red vests, cooks in aprons, and chefs in white hats.

According to the welcoming waiter, the predecessor of the Iron Anchor Bar was the large expedition ship Iron Anchor. After entering the scrapping period, it sailed into an isolated island and was converted into the current bar.It has a total length of 700 meters and a width of 40 meters, with a total of fifteen decks.

Afterwards, Tie Ling rented out half a deck for those who disembarked to eat and rest.They had to stay here for a few days, apply to the Iron Floating Island Oil Industry Committee for a mining license, and purchase the officially discovered oil fields in Yincheng, and then organize personnel to build oil drilling platforms for mining.

In the last war on the Aurora Plane, Eva returned nearly 800 million combat points, because the 2000-ton Star Diamond only needed more than [-] million points.For the rest, the iron slag was replaced with two Jinghai fuel oil fields and one black oil field exploitation rights document, as well as a bottomless abyss fortress construction rights document.

Because the mirror sea is sunny all day long, there is no difference between day and night.After arriving at the bar, everyone ordered a sumptuous dinner according to the time of Silver City World.

The table is full of fish from the Mirror Sea, including sea urchin sashimi the size of a basketball, charcoal-grilled eel half a foot thick, scallops like banana leaves, crabs the size of a washbasin, and lobsters half the height of a person...

It has to be said that the seafood in Jinghai is several times larger than that in Yincheng World.Quinn and Lilith ate happily and their mouths were full of oil.
