"Quetian!"As the stone sculpture reappeared, Lin Yang shouted with a hint of disbelief: "How could this stone sculpture appear here?" Yes, that's right. This time, the stone sculpture appeared in front of him. A huge, mottled toe suddenly appeared from the darkness and lay in front of him. This made Lin Yang confused for a moment. He didn't appear at Quetian's place? ! "Haha, team leader, I told you, this stone sculpture might not be following me." Seeing this, Que Tian laughed loudly, and taking advantage of the pressure that the stone sculpture brought to those transparent life forms, he ran towards Lin Yang. "This……" Looking at the huge mottled stone carved toes in front of him, Lin Yang was quite shocked.
How could this stone sculpture follow him? "Team Leader, what should we do next?" Que Tian came to Lin Yang. As the stone sculpture appeared, a large number of transparent life forms around it retreated far away again, obviously they were very afraid of the stone sculpture. Now there was nothing around them again. Just like last time, those transparent life forms stared at them from a distance. Lin Yang took a deep breath, suppressed his doubts, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "If this stone sculpture has been following us all the time, perhaps we can use it to escape from the encirclement of these life forms." Now is not the time to explore why the stone sculpture followed him. Lin Yang quickly began to think about how to use the stone sculpture to get out of the current predicament. Que Tian frowned and said, "Suppose the stone sculpture follows us all the time, but it stays still every time it appears and won't move with us. It's not realistic to use the ten minutes after it disappears every seven days to run away. We can't run too far when surrounded by transparent life forms." Lin Yang nodded. What Que Tian said is the biggest problem. If the stone sculpture can move with him, then the existence of the stone sculpture can completely ignore the transparent life forms running rampant in the unknown space. But stone sculptures cannot be moved! They also didn't have the strength to tie up the stone sculpture, tie it to themselves and move it with the stone sculpture. In this way, you can only enjoy seven days of safety when the stone sculpture appears, and run as far as you can in the ten minutes before the stone sculpture disappears. Try to use these ten minutes to get closer to the outer area. But there are only a dozen minutes every seven days to run, so even if you run until you die, you can't run far. So, it is actually very difficult to escape bit by bit using the stone carvings. suddenly-- "Quetian, I think we just fell into a misunderstanding."
Lin Yang looked at Que Tian with a flickering gaze, and continued to speak in the latter's puzzled expression: "When the stone sculpture appears, these unknown life forms and those new life forms will avoid it out of fear. After they avoid it, our communication equipment can be used. Maybe we can try to contact the Suzaku battleship again now." "Although there are several life forms in Suzaku, judging from the fact that Suzaku was able to successfully jump before, there are indeed not many life forms in Suzaku and they cannot affect Suzaku's jump." "In that case, if we calculate the time well and let Suzaku return, and accurately jump next to the stone sculpture when it appears, we should be able to be rescued." Que Tian was stunned at first, then he slapped his head and said, "Team Leader, I think this method is really feasible and successful!" Just now he was subconsciously thinking about how to use the stone sculpture to escape. Now after Lin Yang's reminder, Que Tian finally reacted. With their own strength, it is absolutely impossible for them to escape from this area. But if we can get the battleship back, then it will definitely be successful! As long as the time and distance of Suzaku's appearance are calculated, with the stone sculpture there, those life forms would not dare to approach the warship to attach themselves. Even the few living creatures inside the battleship can be brought out. When Zhuque comes close to the stone sculpture and opens the hatch directly, the few living beings inside the battleship will definitely flee frantically. "The only problem now is that our communication equipment has returned to normal, but I don't know what's happening over there. If the few life forms in Suzaku happen to block Suzaku's signal source, then it will be difficult to deal with." Lin Yang's eyes flashed. However, despite this concern, he immediately began trying to establish a communication link with Suzaku. "Now, let's just pray that the few life forms in Suzaku don't block the signal source." Que Tian also began to try to connect with Suzaku. However, after several days, all the messages they sent out fell on deaf ears and received no response from Suzaku. "Alas, it seems that our luck is not very good. Those life forms should have just blocked the signal source of Suzaku." Lin Yang couldn't help but sigh. "Maybe this is fate. Fate has always been like this, tortuous and not as we wish." Que Tian seemed indifferent. "You are quite open-minded." Lin Yang smiled. "What can I do if I can't let it go? It has come to this." Que Tian laughed at himself. "That's right." Lin Yang nodded. Then fell into silence. After a moment, Lin Yang spoke: "We haven't used up our life-support fluids yet. If we try to survive at the limit, we can hold out for another half a year, or even longer. I also have some life properties that can help you and me hold out for a while longer with the healing power. If everything goes well or our luck isn't too bad, we can probably wait for the alliance to rescue us." "Life-support liquid? Even dogs won't eat that stuff!" For some reason, Que Tian suddenly cursed in a low voice, as if he was very resistant to life-support liquid. Lin Yang couldn't help but look at him: "Have you ever survived on maintenance fluid before?" "Yeah." Que Tian nodded and didn't say much, but his expression became a little ugly. It was obvious that there was a past that he was not willing to talk about. "Okay." Lin Yang tactfully did not ask any more questions, but silently took out a small portion of life-sustaining liquid and swallowed it while pinching his nose.
It has been more than ten days, and now I have to replenish some nutrients and water that my body needs. As soon as the life-sustaining liquid entered the mouth, an indescribable taste spread in the mouth, making people feel nauseous. "vomit……" Lin Yang subconsciously wanted to vomit, but still forced himself to swallow it. Then, my stomach started to churn... The nauseous feeling made Lin Yang want to vomit so much that he couldn't help but tremble a few times before he could barely hold it in. unpalatable! It tastes terrible! But the effect is really great. Although I didn't feel full, the feeling of physical weakness caused by lack of nutrition and not eating for many days was cleared away in an instant. "No wonder I felt so nauseous after eating it. The effect is too strong. It dissolves in an instant. If it took effect slowly, it probably wouldn't be so uncomfortable." Lin Yang exhaled and muttered. "Haha, this thing is for quickly replenishing nutrition and physical strength during war. Of course, its effect is rapid." Que Tian laughed as he watched from the side. "You don't want to eat?" Lin Yang looked at him. "I... will hold on a little longer." Que Tian shook his head. "Okay, but I still advise you not to wait until you can't hold on any longer before using it. Don't forget, there are still more than ten minutes of time after the stone sculpture disappears. You have to fight those life forms. If you run out of energy in the middle of the battle, you won't have a chance to eat even if you want to." Although Lin Yang didn't know why Que Tian was so resistant to the life-sustaining fluid, he still reminded him. Que Tian's eyes flashed slightly and he nodded silently. Then he took out a bottle of life-sustaining liquid and stared at it for a long time, as if he was making some mental preparations. Seeing that the stone sculpture was about to disappear, he gritted his teeth and put the life-sustaining liquid into his mouth. But his reaction was much smaller than Lin Yang's. After eating, his expression just changed slightly, and then everything was back to normal. This made Lin Yang mutter to himself. Que Tian must have taken this life-sustaining liquid many times to be able to remain so indifferent. But it is obvious that Que Tian can almost ignore the physical discomfort caused by the maintenance fluid. But psychologically, Que Tian obviously had a big trauma about this thing. Before eating, you need to do a lot of mental preparation. "Is it because the training in the Taixuan Ancient Dynasty was too harsh? Can they only survive on maintenance fluids?" Lin Yang guessed secretly, but he didn't dare to ask more questions. "Quetian, this is for you." Lin Yang suddenly took out a bag of compressed biscuits and handed it to Quetian. This was given to him by Que Tian before. He was given two bags at the time, but he had only eaten one bag before.
There is only one bag left. Que Tian was startled: "Team Leader, you didn't eat?" "I've eaten one bag, and this is the only one left. Now I have to focus on maintenance liquid. I won't eat this anymore. I can't get used to it." Lin Yang explained. "Oh, okay." Que Tian took the compressed biscuit, took out a small piece, put it in his mouth and took a small bite. His expression looked much better then. "Did you always eat a small piece of biscuit to relieve the pain after using the maintenance solution?" Lin Yang suddenly said. "It's a... habit." Que Tian didn't say much. "Get ready for battle." Lin Yang didn't ask any more questions. Soon, seven days passed. The stone sculpture disappeared. After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, the stone sculpture reappeared. …… Two months later. "Alas, it's been more than two months, and we've basically been standing still." After another battle, Lin Yang sat cross-legged on the giant toes of the stone sculpture to regulate his breathing, and couldn't help but complain. For more than two months, he and Que Tian used the ten minutes or so each time to move, but they could only move a few steps. Every time the stone sculpture disappeared, those transparent life forms would swarm in in an instant. More than two months have passed, and they still haven't received a reply from Suzaku. I don’t know whether rescue will come in half a year. Lin Yang was beginning to lose hope. Que Tian was even calmer: "If you can live, live. If you can't live, die." "Quetian, your mental state is a bit too advanced..." Lin Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Everyone will die, sooner or later, but dying in this situation is meaningless," said Que Tian. Lin Yang shook his head helplessly. Que Tian didn't have the drive to survive in this desperate situation. But he didn't want to die like this. After a moment of silence, Lin Yang raised his head and looked at the chest of the stone sculpture. He asked in a serious tone, "Quetian, what do you think will happen if we remove the word 'Zhen'?" "Huh? What do you want to do?" Que Tian was stunned. "Didn't you speculate before that the word 'Zhen' might have a certain suppressive effect on this stone sculpture? If we remove the word 'Zhen', the eyes of the stone sculpture might open completely. At that time, some unimaginable things might happen. Maybe we can get a glimmer of hope." Lin Yang's eyes were dim. After so much time had passed, the stone sculpture's eyes still hadn't fully opened.
Lin Yang also felt that it might be related to the word "town". “What if it kills us the first time it opens its eyes?” Que Tian asked back, “Those life forms are so afraid of this stone sculpture, this stone sculpture must be even more terrifying. Once it opens its eyes, I’m afraid it will kill us with just one glance.” Lin Yang was immediately amused: "You have never been afraid of death, have you? Why are you afraid of being killed by the stone sculpture now?" "That's different. I just look at it more open-mindedly. If there is really no other way, then we can only wait for death. But isn't it the end of the road now? The life-sustaining liquid is enough to last for several months." Que Tian shook his head and said. "Uh...so, you can die, but you don't want to die early." Lin Yang looked strange. "That's about right. There are still a few months left. Maybe there will be a turning point." Que Tian said lightly. He didn't have a strong desire to survive, but he didn't want to end his life before all hope was lost. "You are really weird." Lin Yang muttered, and then said: "It's not easy for us to remove the word 'Zhen'. Although it is a little mottled, it will probably take several months to erase it. Maybe even several months is not enough." Then he made a suggestion: "We can do it slowly now. If there is a turning point in the middle, we can stop. If not, we can just erase the word 'Zhen'. We are all going to die in the end anyway, so there is no difference between dying at the hands of a stone sculpture and dying at the hands of a transparent life form." "And if the stone sculpture finally opens its eyes, and we are lucky enough not to be killed, then we might be able to survive by taking advantage of the chaos. Sometimes, creating chaos in the situation can also be a new hope." Hearing this, Que Tian was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "That makes sense." "So, let's do it?" Lin Yang drove the aircraft directly towards the chest of the stone sculpture. Que Tian followed closely behind. Six days later. "I give up. Just flying from the feet to the chest, at the speed of the aircraft, would take more than six days. This means we only have less than a day to erase the word 'Zhen' each time. What I said just now is still conservative. Let alone a few months, I'm afraid that even a few years may not be enough." Looking at the huge word "Zhen" on the chest of the stone sculpture, Lin Yang smiled bitterly. In terms of maximum flying speed alone, his and Que Tian's aircraft are no slower than warships. It's just that the jump cannot be made. But it takes more than six days to get from toes to chest, which is too time-consuming. Moreover, this is because the stone sculpture continues to sink, otherwise six days would not be enough to fly from the feet to the chest. Yes. The stone sculpture is sinking. Although each time it appears, the stone sculpture is still and does not move with the person. But the stone sculpture will continue to sink. I don’t know if it’s because of the unknown space or something else.
In short, every time the stone sculpture reappears, it will remain motionless and sink. It felt like a giant standing on the ground, and because the ground could not support the giant's weight or strength, the giant kept sinking. That's what stone carving is like. And the sinking speed is not slow. That's why it can fly from the feet to the chest in six days. Otherwise, given the size of the stone sculpture, it would be impossible to cross such a long distance in just a few days. Que Tian sighed: "There is no other choice now, let's do it first." Lin Yang nodded. Come here. How do you know it won’t work if you don’t try? Soon, nearly a day passed. The stone sculpture disappeared on time. Those transparent bodies also appeared again. "These life forms are really amazing. We have been ascending these past few days. Although they dare not approach the stone sculpture, they are following us at the farthest distance. They are really pestering us." Seeing this, Lin Yang sighed. These life forms are really as troublesome as maggots. Soon, the stone sculpture reappeared. What appeared was the toes. "Can't this stone sculpture just turn its chest towards us? It always shows its feet, and we have to go to the chest." Lin Yang was a little too tired to complain. No matter how high they fly and what position they are in, the stone sculpture's toes appear every time. Even though they are now at the chest position of the stone sculpture last time, they will be at the toes position again after the stone sculpture disappears and reappears. "The unknown space is also very strange. I don't know how high or deep it is. It seems as if it is endless from top to bottom." Que Tian also said. As they climbed up to the chest of the stone sculpture again, the two of them resumed their work as decorators. Rub the word "Zhen" hard. …… Another month has passed. Lin Yang and Que Tian have now become somewhat accustomed to the current situation.
The stone sculpture appeared, flew to the chest, and rubbed the word "Zhen". so cycle. I'm almost a mechanic. It's another day when the stone sculpture disappears. Lin Yang and Que Tian had already calculated the time and were ready to fly directly to the chest area as soon as the stone sculpture appeared. But he was stunned the moment the stone sculpture reappeared. because…… "This time, the stone sculpture's toes didn't come out first?" - Thanks to Brother Gu Ling Fenghuang for the 10,000-coin reward. Xiao Hu is flattered and very grateful. I wish you great fortune and luck! I bow to you! (End of this chapter)
