Chapter 1,072 The Hanging River

A group of lively children surrounded the cat lady, chattering without any peace for a moment. What surprised us was that the surrounded cat lady didn't even look flustered at all. Not only was she able to deal with the children's random questions in an orderly manner, At critical moments, something that seems to be majestic can even burst out: the majesty of the teacher.

It seems that no matter how weak a character is, he can still perform unexpectedly in his own field. Look at Lin, the ten thousand year old boss, who is also full of majesty after becoming the Dragon God.

But then again, when the rabbi is with a group of children, he doesn't look like a teacher and students, but more like a senior sister leading the junior students to play. This is the poor cat girl. Determined by her height: She stands on tiptoes and is only a little over 1.4 meters. This is all because she is a cat and her ears grow on the top of her head. You have to include the length of her ears into her height... To be honest, Pandora He and Viska seem to be quite envious of the pair of cat ears. If nothing unexpected happens, transforming into a cat-eared girl may be the only hope for his two short winter melon sisters.

After sending the noisy children away, the rabbi ran back with a blushing face. He looked a little embarrassed. He went up and pinched the child's ears with a slight smile, and said happily: "Wow, can't you see you still have it?" Bravo!"

"Yeah!" Before Rabbi could react, his ears were pinched. He exclaimed softly like a kitten, then shrank his neck and protected his head with his hands, "Don't move your ears...it's so itchy."

"It's the same sensitive spot as Lan." Lin Xue touched my arm. "But Blue can bite people, but this cat is much less courageous."

The cat lady's ears were obviously very sensitive. After hearing this, she immediately emphasized to Lin Xue: "My name is Rabbi, and I am not a cat."

"She usually not only teaches the children here," Lilina explained, "she teaches the children in the morning and teaches the townspeople here to read and write in the afternoon. There are too many illiterates here now, and those who go out to preach are not literate. You know, In most cases, missionaries are supposed to represent the intelligentsia, but here the situation is just the opposite."

Lin Xue shrugged: "This gives me a sense of sight as a mountain village teacher. Huh? Is that... a half-dragon in front of me?"

"Where are they?" Shajina was the first to call. Lin Xue pointed and followed her instructions. Sure enough, we saw three people standing by the stone platform not far ahead, talking in a low voice. Two men and one woman, although they don't look like anything special. But the thick, scaly long tail behind them is obviously a unique feature of half-dragons. Sakina is a person who is as active as Qianqian. He immediately greeted from a distance: "Hey! This way!"

The three half-dragon townspeople glanced here strangely, and then all froze.

Sakina ran over quickly. She was very happy to meet her own kind here. However, in contrast to her elation, the three half-dragons who were chatting before suddenly looked at each other nervously. He took half a step back, showing a cautious and uneasy look.

"Ah. What's wrong? What's wrong with me?" Sakina looked at herself strangely. Everything was as usual. The only thing I felt awkward about was leaving the huge backpack in the town hall temporarily. After all, it was inconvenient to move around with such a big thing. But this didn't seem to be the key. The three people in front of her were obviously nervous because of other things. Just when she was confused, the only woman among the three strange half-dragons suddenly spoke cautiously: "Excuse me...are you Lady Sakina or Lady Sona?"

"Huh?" Not only Sakina, but also Sona, who was running over, was stunned for a moment, and they both exclaimed in unison.

"You just forgot about it by turning your face?" I patted Sakina on the shoulder and pointed at Lin, who was distracted. "Spokesperson of God, you two are now the prophets of all half-dragons in the world. Lin's revelation has been It has befallen every half-dragon."

Sakina said in a long voice: "Oh——" She looked like she was slow to respond. The three half-dragon townspeople next to her rubbed their hands nervously. One of them stretched out his hand and pointed at the backs of Sakina and Sona. The big shield he held: "We saw such a token in the hallucination. This is a sign that our bloodline is about to be revived... Oh my god, we thought it was an hallucination. We were talking about it just now."

Although Sakina and Sona were already known as the spokespersons of the Dragon God, they were not mentally prepared after all. At this time, they could only laugh twice, and then pointed to Lin, who was still distracted and did not come back: "This is the god of our clan."

Suddenly the surroundings became quiet, and she felt the eyes focused on her. Lin finally came out of her daze, looked at the three stunned half-dragons in front of her, smiled stupidly, and whispered: "Hello, I have something to do. ?"

"Ahem, the details will be discussed later." Sajina also knew what the dragon god she just met usually looked like, so she coughed twice to divert the attention of the three tribesmen, "There are other people nearby. A half-dragon?"

"Quite a few," the female half-dragon immediately replied. "There are more than a hundred tribesmen in the town. They were all exiled to mine together. Everyone should be on the stone field to the east of the mine now. The town needs to be rebuilt. There are a lot of stones, the half-dragons are very powerful, and there is a crow god..."

Halfway through, the other party suddenly stopped, with a trace of embarrassment and uneasiness flashing across her face. She looked at the faces of Sajina and Sona before hesitatingly said: "The half-dragons here believe in the Crow God... We …We didn’t know at the time…”

"Oh, worry about this," Sakina nodded clearly, "It's okay, the Dragon God doesn't mind." After saying that, she turned to Lin and said: "The half-dragons here have been baptized by the Crow God Sect. , doesn’t matter, right?”

Lin thought for a while, then squatted down to discuss with Medivh, the little crow who was digging a hole on the ground: "Now, let me discuss something with you. The half-dragons among your Crow God Cult followers must collectively believe in the Dragon God. It’s too troublesome to rebaptize them one by one. Why don’t you baptize these believers as part of the Dragon God Sect’s initiation ceremony in the future? In this way, the Dragon God Sect can save a lot of trouble.”

The little crow is busy digging the soil. She found two shiny stone beads and carefully put them into her pocket. Then she raised her head and nodded happily: "Gah! Yes!" Then she solemnly told Vanilla: "Half-dragons are baptized and are considered dragon gods at the same time. baptism."

We have long been accustomed to the unreliability of the gods, but the five half-dragons present, including Sakina and the others, as well as Vanilla and Rabbi, were completely unable to adapt to this setting. They were all stunned and their world view collapsed. appearance. Lilina added to the confusion with a heartless smile: "This is the legendary package service. When you join the Crow God Sect, you can register for Dragon God membership for free. At the same time, I have also added several new value-added items. Members of the Crow God Sect can You can get three months of the Life God Cult experience service every year, and believers who believe in both the Crow God and the Goddess of Life can enjoy a special discount that increases the prayer effect by 20%. Crow God believers can send cross-world spiritual communications to Life Goddess believers for free. Traffic fee... ahem, no mental loss, ah, Sajina and Sona. You can also add business to it. In the future, Dragon God believers can get three lottery opportunities every month by praying to the Crow God. After joining the religion Praying every day counts as active days. Active days can be accumulated into levels. High-level believers will have two more lottery opportunities every month. Crow God believers have a chance to receive the Dragon God's blessing, and Dragon God believers have a chance to receive the Crow God's blessing. By the way, we can also open inter-bank prayer services and off-site blessing services for the three sects of Dragon God, Crow God, and Goddess of Life..."

Sakina and Sona were completely stunned at this time. They held their mouths open for a long time before one word came out: "...Huh?"

I spent half a day there. Finally it dawned on me: "You are using God as a Chinese traitor!"

"You must maintain the necessary respect for God." Lilina straightened her face and said very seriously - and then she was slapped with a knife.

"Then... that. We are going to the stone field to meet other tribesmen." Sona pulled Sakina back half a step with a strange expression on her face. As if to keep a distance from a group of lunatics, after receiving Lin's nod, they led the three half-dragons and disappeared in a flash.

Next, my sister and I formed a coalition to educate Lilina, a guy who always talks about cheating.

We stayed in the "Holy City" for three days, waiting for the Hanging River to connect to the mother continent. The southern region is indeed a very boring place. The land is barren, vast and sparsely populated, and there is no landscape worthy of our interest, even if it has never been Qianqian, who was full of energy, also lost interest in this place after a day of wandering around: there are Gobi Desert everywhere, and within a straight line distance of thousands of kilometers, there are only stones and sand, as well as scattered and dilapidated villages. Or a town, neither of which can bring people a good mood. So we simply stayed in the town and watched how Lilina brought her new apprentices: Vanilla, Sakina, and Sona.

The Crow God Sect has laid the foundation. Although it is not even a prototype now, they already have their initial core believers. The stability of the power of the Crow God among these believers means that a religion has a foundation for development and growth. , with the help of Lilina, the Crow God Sect established the Crow God Sect with the Crow God as the ultimate worship idol, the Pope as the spiritual leader, and several high priests (also called archbishops, the ritual masters and religious affairs of the Crow God Sect). (Officials are unified) are the leadership of senior leaders, and further down there are bishops and priests at all levels, as well as missionaries and monks traveling around, pastors stationed in small settlements, etc. These are basically various religious They all have similar organizational structures, and at most they have different names. However, the Crow God Religion is still very different from the common religions on earth, that is...

It allows its believers to believe in as many gods as they want, even if you are baptized by seventeen or eight gods at a time, it is no problem, as long as you can be busy when praying before meals. In the same way, the Goddess of Life Sect and the Dragon God Sect also pursue the same policy.

Lilina has finally achieved her ambition in a grand way: to establish a cooperation network for inter-religious prayers and blessings from the gods among the three major religions. The next step is that she will probably encourage novice popes like Vanilla to open a membership points system among believers... ...I have to stop her quickly!

Speaking of Vanilla, the child has made great progress now. Although her character is still cautious, gentle and obedient, she is definitely much more mature than before. She is working hard to learn how to become a qualified religious leader. At least she can figure out what she needs to do. What. In fact, she can do many tasks very well without being taught by others: with the help of the Crow God. Helping others, protecting believers, and doing more good deeds are what she wants to do now. Even a sinister guy like Lilina can do it, let alone the kind-hearted Vanilla.

In fact, in the area affected by the Crow God Sect, vanilla has unexpected prestige and popularity. This kind and gentle little girl is very good at arousing the favor of others. She is always willing to help others, and she does it from the bottom of her heart every time. These things are exactly what a spiritual leader should do. Perhaps she will never be able to do so in terms of majesty and momentum. Become a superior, but she can make herself a spiritual guide that believers sincerely want to protect and support, in Lilina's words. This is also a successful pope, although not in the same way as hers.

And with vanilla. In the past two days, Sajina and Sona also started to get involved in religious matters. The two half-dragon girls seemed much clumsier. Firstly, they were complete novices. The only thing they had ever come into contact with before was using the names of some indigenous gods. Secondly, they really didn’t have much knowledge. . Although Vanilla is the same (or even worse, Vanilla is a local girl who came out of the ravine, and Sakina and I have at least been to many big cities), at least Vanilla has lived in our world for half a month. She had already developed strong receptive skills when she learned how to use the TV remote control, but Sakina and Sona did not have such experience. The two of them have not yet changed their minds from being explorers.

But I'm not in a hurry - Lin isn't in a hurry, so why should I be in a hurry? Anyway, everything is proceeding step by step, and the re-emergence of the half-dragon race is an unchangeable fact. There are now over a hundred half-dragons in the town. They were all exiled here as slave labor without any charges. The only reason is that half-dragons are strong and have strong vitality, so they were selected as breeding tools. These half-dragons have now become believers of the Dragon God. Lin personally blessed them for the first time - this meant that the first batch of hundreds of Dragon God believers in the Holy City would become the most powerful group of Dragon God sect in the future. Lin's power has begun to show up in these new believers. In addition to the strengthening of physical fitness, individual believers with strong understanding can already use the "divine power" gained from prayer, although it is just like adding flames to their fists and summoning. Small tricks such as a strong wind or instantly covering a large area of ​​scales on the body to protect oneself are also quite a surprise for half-dragons who have never been exposed to "magic". This means that only in terms of racial talents, they Already have the capital not to be looked down upon by other races. This is the setting of this world. All races will use arcane power as the standard for intellectual enlightenment (although the use of arcane power is indeed related to intellectual talent). If a race has no connection with arcana, it will be regarded as incomplete evolution. , half-dragons suffer from this kind of discrimination.

However, if a race wants to revive, it is not enough to simply gain individual strength. No matter how hard they fight, they will still be a wandering race with a ruined country and a ruined family. The power of the Dragon God only allows them to avoid being bullied when fighting, and does not use it. It's just being discriminated against. What can really determine the "civilization" level of a race should be culture, tradition, society, territory, customs... and other tangible or intangible elements. Only when these things flourish again can half-dragons declare that they have An independent race rather than a group of vagabonds.

In history, the Half-Dragon people also had a glorious civilization. Nowadays, the ruins of their former city-states can still be seen all over the world, as well as the remnants of art that were thrown into the yellow sand and no one cared about it. However, those things have been lost for many years, and today’s Half-Dragon The dragons have almost forgotten their own writing. Sakina can only write twelve half-dragon writings, and not a single half-dragon knows what utensils her race used to process food. The cultural rupture is shocking.

This morning, Sakina came to me and talked about these things with herself.

"I never thought before that my race has fallen to this level," the half-dragon girl sat on the steps in front of the town hall and couldn't help but sigh. The early morning sunlight shone down on her. A dazzling golden light reflected on the scales under her cheeks. In three days, a wild girl could not learn how to become mature and steady, but it was enough for her to learn many things that she had never thought of. At least this was my first Seeing Sakina for the first time, she sighed, "I don't even have my own writing. I don't know how many years the half-dragon civilization lasted. I don't even know when my country was destroyed. I don't even know what the name of my former motherland was." The name and history are all gone. So is the culture. In this way, even if we talk about rebuilding our homeland in the south, in the end we will just be a group of savages who are good at fighting and carve out the land to become kings. Can we really call it a revival?"

"So you came to me?" I glanced at the other person and tried to divert my attention away from her tail. Okay, I admit, foreign girls are cute. But the more important reason is that Sakina's tail reflects light in the sun, making it look golden!

"You are the king of the gods," Sakina said seriously, "even though it doesn't look like it."

You don’t need to say the second half of the sentence! Of course, the first half of the sentence has no meaning...

"Anyway, I heard that you rule many worlds. Countless mortal races and civilizations. Our world in your land should not be much bigger than a grain of sand. In this case. I think you should be a little bit ...How should I put it, it is a bit beyond my understanding of wisdom, the wisdom of gods, or a vision that us mortals can never understand. You should know more than me about the rise and fall of civilizations, the reproduction of races, etc., right? "

I thought about it, and finally I didn’t have the nerve to tell people that I scored 65 points in biology, history and politics combined - I have the wisdom of God Mao! Who says gods have to have otherworldly ways of thinking? Take out Dingdang and let her give me an extraordinary look!

"Don't remind me, I'm allergic to this word." I curled my lips, "Remember. This word is just your habitual name for a powerful creature that you can't understand. It does not mean that there is anything special about God: except for power. In addition to being powerful, we are also noisy when eating and sleeping. Sometimes we are slower than you. Some gods are more troublesome than the kids in the square. Just like you believe in the Dragon God now, but you have also seen that the gods you believe in The only advantage of the Dragon God is that she is very quick at work, and she is the first to wash the dishes after dinner. It is one thing for her to provide shelter to your entire family, but it is another thing to say how noble and great she is. You have to accept this assumption. Just make sure.”

Sakina lowered her head: "Well... I have actually accepted this fact. God, it is really different from what I imagined before, but they do have incredible powers... Well, actually I have wanted to say it for a long time. Now, can you stop playing with my tail?"

I was stunned, looked down, and quickly stopped: "Ahem, sorry, I didn't pay attention. Why is it so cold?"

Sakina pulled back her tail in embarrassment and hugged her arms, and finally spoke of her thoughts: "Actually, I have some plans... Oh, it was also Sona's plan. She was further ahead than I thought, but she was too We are introverted. We want to send out more than a hundred tribesmen in the town." At this point, she paused, and seeing that I had no intention of interrupting, she continued to explain: "Because there are many mines and strong labor is needed. Yes, there are a huge number of half-dragons in the south. Sona thinks that all the half-dragons that can be summoned should be gathered together first. Now our whole family has seen the divine revelation in the illusion, and we all vaguely know what happened. What's the matter? It's just that no one has contacted us. It's still a mess for the time being. If we send a group of people out to respond at this time, we will definitely gather a large number of manpower. In addition, the people sent out can also look for our former city-state, although hundreds of years have passed. , but those relics should still be found. We have selected the most knowledgeable tribesmen and want them to set out to restore the culture of the half-dragons, even if they find some historical fragments. In addition, some people still need to go to the north. To rescue the compatriots who are still regarded as inferior races there, what happened in Sentu will have limited influence after all. Far away from Sentu, the half-dragons must still be suffering. Finally, we need to find a suitable place to build a new home, maybe Near the Holy Capital, or maybe closer to the western coastline, no matter where you are, you have to start doing it, even if you build a shack in the wild, it is your home... Now, I'm done."

Sakina looked at me with expectant eyes, and I was slightly surprised: "Then what?"

"Then?" The half-dragon girl was also stunned, "What's your opinion? I went to ask Lord Dragon God, and she said that you are the leader of the team now, and she wanted me to come to you for advice." That guy Lin... It should be said that he really deserves to be Dingdang's subordinate, there is one thing that is wrong!

"I have no objection. Your plan is very good," I said seriously. "Look, can't you do a good job? Just go ahead and do it. If you need help, just tell me and I will decisively help Lily." Throw Na over there and work as a coolie for you."

Sakina's eyes lit up: "Is it really possible? But now the town is under construction at a critical moment. More than a hundred half-dragons are a very important labor force here, and they are also Crow God believers..." It turns out that this That's where she hesitated.

"Go ahead, a hundred laborers, or the first step of racial rejuvenation, who do you think is more important?" I laughed, "Just go and tell Vanilla, she will arrange other people, now the town The population has expanded two or three times. Half of the new people have completed the baptism of the Crow God, so there is no shortage of people."

Sakina nodded happily, stood up and was about to leave, but before that I thought of one thing and quickly stopped her: "Wait! One thing: you and Sona, please don't follow us. We still have to go to the Sky Tower.”

"Of course, I will remember it." Sakina said with a happy smile on her face. "The Hanging River will open in a few hours. I'm going to make arrangements with Sona now. Then get ready to go - after all, we are still explorers!"

"Ajun is indeed a good man, and he treats everyone well." Dingdang suddenly came out of my breast pocket, turned over and looked up at this side, his little face still looked confused as if he had just woken up. It seems that he heard the conversation between Sakina and I. The little guy also pretended to be emotional, and I looked at the sun above my head. Touching the little one's head with his finger: "It's not easy, you have reversed the jet lag!" Dingdang smiled stupidly: "Of course. Dingdang is awesome! Taking a nap is very comfortable~~"

Me: "..." Damn, what she just finished was a nap! This little guy is jet lagged!

The shortcut to the Sky Tower is the Xuankong River, and the teleportation point of the Xuankong River is not far from here - a straight-line distance of more than two hundred kilometers. Anyway, it was quite close to us, so there was no need to set off early. We left time for the half-dragons. Sakina and Sona spent several hours arranging their plan. They summoned all the people of the same clan in the town, a total of one hundred and five people (Xiaoxue mentioned something casually, she read it from a history book After reading the legend about the 105 pioneers of the half-dragons, it seems that their action was indeed successful. It's a pity that Xiaoxue, the child, forgets the book very quickly, so she only remembers the records about the half-dragons. (limited to that title only), divided into three groups, went to the southern hinterland to gather the tribesmen, separately searched for the half-dragon ruins, and headed to the north. Each half-dragon had an unprecedented look of determination on their faces. They knew that they were about to step out. It is not only a long journey, but also the first step in the rejuvenation of their entire race. They have a heavy responsibility on their shoulders and are not willing to delay for a moment. At the same time, even Lilina, who practices for these half-dragons, is very serious.

Although the supplies in the town were also very tight, Vanilla still ordered people to prepare the best supplies they could find for these forerunners who were about to embark on the journey. Even though it was only a few pieces of clothing and one or two newly made self-defense weapons, it was not enough. These half-dragons have been quite touched: in their entire lives since they can remember, they have never had the experience of being cared for and supported by so many people, let alone the moment of embarking on a journey full of hope like this. With the dual blessings of the Dragon God and the Crow God, they embarked on the journey with confidence. Some of them may be able to lead their tribes back soon, while some may take more than ten years or even decades to find their past. The half-dragon empire is in ruins, but no matter what kind of mission it is, they have readily accepted it.

This was the first time they acted for themselves.

"It's time for us to set off." After seeing off the half-dragons, my sister looked at the sky and said.

"Who is that? I'll leave this place to you and Vanilla." Lilina turned to look at the cat girl in the crowd behind her, and Vanilla who was standing next to the cat girl and waving to the little crow on our side. The former's ears immediately perked up and he shouted in the loudest voice he could: "My name is Rabbi! I don't call him that!"

Suddenly the surrounding area was filled with joy. The cat was really concerned about his name not being remembered. Next, a large group of us started teleportation and arrived at the entrance of a valley hundreds of kilometers away.

Due to the short teleportation distance, Sakina and Sona did not spit out this time. They just bumped into each other in a daze. Now they are busy untangling their tails, while we are looking around curiously.

This is a barren land, surrounded by gravel and yellow sand that is most common in the south. Even if there are plants, they are the kind of dry yellow and thorny Gobi shrubs that grow tenaciously in the cracks of the rocks. Ahead of us, the terrain on either side rose sharply, forming ridges. Between the ridges is a valley that extends downward at an almost sixty-degree angle. The entrance to the valley is only about a hundred meters wide, and all the way down there are huge rock suspension platforms with a drop of more than ten meters. The terrain can be called dangerous—— No wonder few people choose to enter the Hanging River from here. Since there are other safe entrances, of course no one would choose to take such a dangerous route. We also chose this place because we were in a hurry: a lost world sometimes has more than one entrance, and They may not all appear on the home continent at the same time. Just like the Hanging River, in addition to the valley in front of us now, the entrance to the Hanging River will also appear near the western coastline in half a month, but we don't have time to wait until then.

"It's such a heavy fog." Looking into the valley, Qian Qian immediately muttered.

The valley was filled with a substantial thick fog, but it was all concentrated dozens of meters below us, forming a clear dividing line between the thick fog and the air above. It looks particularly strange, and that's why. It is impossible to tell with the naked eye just how deep this valley is. The bottom of the boulder platform looks like a surging sea. The sound of turbulent water came from beneath the thick fog, indicating that the so-called "hanging river" was already connected to the world: just beneath the fog.

"This is one of the most dangerous entrances to the lost world," Sakina said, pointing to the sea of ​​fog under the giant rock platform. "The bottom of these rocks is even steeper than it looks here. There are more than ten meters of distance that can't be seen in the thick fog. Five Fingers, if you are not a very familiar senior explorer, a novice will most likely slip and fall if you go down from here. In fact, not many people will come here, as you can see. There is not even a station here. "

"Tch, let's go." Bingtis waved his hand impatiently. Then he summoned a holy light under his feet, and the thick fog was immediately opened by this holy light to create a passage more than ten meters wide, forming a glorious ramp in front of us. At the end of the ramp was the faintly visible river bank. When Little Bubble and Medivh saw it, they jumped up with joy and slid down the path of Holy Light like a slide...and slid down...

"How can the Holy Light be used like this?!" I exclaimed, dumbfounded as I watched Qian Qian pull Saezi, followed closely by the God Clan gangsters, Lin Xue and other cheering guys jumping onto the Holy Light Ramp. , slipped out one by one, while Bingtis smiled enigmatically: "Of course the normal Holy Light can't, but I have never been normal!" Me: "..."

"Ahem, what I mean is that as a technical geek, it is natural to add some small functions to the things you often use." Bingtis scratched his hair awkwardly and explained.

The Xuankong River is a river hanging in the sky. Each lost world has a name that is straightforward and easy to understand. Just hearing the three words "Xuankong River", we can easily imagine what kind of scenery it is here, but when the Xuankong River really When it appears in front of our eyes, we can't help but marvel: the magical and boundless world never lacks wonders.

The Hanging River is a wide river that stretches across the infinite sky, stretching for hundreds of kilometers. At its widest point, the other side of the river cannot even be seen with the naked eye. The rushing river water rushes out from a thin layer of clouds and mist, and finally reaches hundreds of kilometers. Dissipating into the clouds, this miraculous river has broken banks - yes, the banks of the Hanging River are not complete. Less than a third of it has land on both sides. In most places, The water of the Xuankong River flows directly above the clouds, as if invisible river channels are restraining these endless turbulences. These broken river banks float high in the sky together with the Xuankong River, under the influence of some unknown force Maintaining stability, the brave pioneers found a stable foothold on these small pieces of land floating in the air, and left behind small camps - there were humans stationed on both sides of the Hanging River.

Of course, because we chose a very unpopular entrance, our landing point was not close to the human settlement area. It was a small piece of broken river bank, with a width of only about ten meters and a length of no more than a hundred meters. If we only look at the visual effect, Here is a long strip of land next to the river, and it is also floating in the sky: it is strangely unreliable.

However, this allows us to better understand how magnificent the Hanging River is, a scenic spot known as a "wonder" in many lost worlds. The floating river meanders above the clouds, with empty sky on both sides. If there were an endless river bank here, it would dilute the visual impact of the Hanging River.

"Wow - oh!" Just like every time she came to an incredible place, Qian Qian immediately ran to the bank of the surging river and cheered loudly towards the other side. Behind her, several small people stood They lined up in a row and followed the same example, cheers came and went, and in the middle there was a loud "Gah!" from a certain stupid crow. Pandora was the only one among the many little girls who did not join in such embarrassing things. She watched her sister also follow suit. There was no expression on her dull face, but she was probably already preparing for the next supersonic hand knife.

"Look, the clouds are under our feet!" Lin Xue grabbed my arm and pulled me to run towards the edge of this small piece of broken river bank. She pointed down and shouted happily. I looked down and saw the white clouds. It was rolling and surging hundreds of meters below, like ocean waves. It is indeed a quite magnificent scenery. Someone who is afraid of heights would have been receiving oxygen by this time.

"The Hanging River is floating in the sky, so what's under the clouds below?" I looked at the rolling clouds under my feet and couldn't help but become curious. Sona happened to be standing next to me. She was stunned when she heard this and said uncertainly: " It seems that some scholars have studied this. It is said that there is another suspended river below the clouds, and the same is above - the space here is constantly circulating."

I looked up at the sky and saw another sea of ​​clouds. Continuous clouds covered the sky and under the hanging river, as if sandwiching the space I was in. The clouds, The hanging river and clouds made people feel like sandwich biscuits... I used my mental energy to sense the structure of the surrounding space, and found that I had quickly reached the boundary of this space.

"The 'height' is only thirty-six kilometers," Sandora reached out and gestured. "This space is closed, with a height of thirty-six kilometers. If you jump from the river bank, if you can 'fall' all the way down, Then it will fall back from the other end of the space soon."

"'Closed'? Is this God's way of explaining 'space circulation'?" Sona looked at us curiously.

My expression was very serious: "No, this is science." Even though the world itself is already quite unscientific...

"Where is the teleportation point to the Sky Tower?" Although she was also interested in the wonders in front of her, Sandora still focused on business. She looked around, except that not far away was the projection of the valley when we came in. Outside, I didn’t notice the phenomenon of opening the space door, so I asked curiously.

"Upstream of the river," Sona pointed in a direction, "The Sky Tower is almost open at this time. We can take a boat there, and there will probably be a boat passing by here in a while."

"Boat?" I was surprised. "There will be a boat here?"

"Since it's a river, why can't there be boats?" Sona asked curiously, "And the riverbanks here are broken. Except for the upper reaches of the river bank and the islands in the middle reaches, which are relatively large, other places are segmented. They are stationed on the Hanging River. If people nearby want to go out, they have to take a boat, right?" After finishing her words, Sakina came over and added a few words: "The lower reaches of the Xuankong River are the main producing areas of red algae and elemental water crystals, but there is only a small river bank there as a The red algae and elemental water crystals collected from the port and station are transported by ship to the large camp upstream every day for storage. The ship is also responsible for patrolling the banks of the Hanging River to see if any unlucky guys are trapped. On the nearby isolated island, there may be explorers who have taken a different approach - like us, appearing next to this unpopular entrance. Today is the day when the Xuankong River opens here, and the cargo ship will definitely stop here."

In fact, for us, the faster way to travel would be to summon 700 billion, or teleport directly there, but Qianqian immediately became interested when he heard that there was a ship from another world to take. I thought about it, anyway. The matter is not urgent, so we can just wait and see--and the scenery here is not bad, so just treat it as a sight.

What Sakina and Sona said was indeed true. Not long after we waited here, a low and melodious whistle came from the lower reaches of the river - the cargo ship hanging on the river was coming.

(What happened? I don’t know anything...) (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
