Journey of a Thousand Miles

Unexpectedly, the little Charmander, which had lost its dragon scales, looked up to the sky and let out a mournful wail, and the fireball in its mouth was surging like never before. As its head frantically twisted from side to side, flames spewed out continuously and spread all over the ground.

Charmander's blood volume is still far away from the critical point of red blood, but it is obvious that it has gone berserk.

That's right, a piece of body fell off, and it hurt so badly that anyone would have to beat their chest and stamp their feet, right?

It is Wugui who suffers, he has not withdrawn from the area where Charmander is suffering, and every move of Charmander may involve him.But seeing the little charmander's tail swaying violently from side to side, a gust of wind swept everywhere it passed, and its wings flapped vigorously blindly, it may no longer have blame in its eyes, but this kind of boss who doesn't care Level indiscriminate attacks are even more troublesome-the opponent cannot predict without purpose, and can only rely on real reaction power.He didn't forget to put the dragon scales in the package, and he had to barely block some unavoidable shock waves with his giant sword. He watched his health drop step by step as the little charmander vented his anger.

puff--!While Wu Jiu was moving, he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his back. He understood instantly, and without struggling, he left the ground with both feet, and flew backwards. The skill - Grab!

"Withdraw!" After Wujiu drew an arc and landed, Qianli accepted the move and hung the piercing bow on his back. He got what he wanted, and whoever is still desperately fighting those three bosses, let's go !

No blame and no downfall, he poked forward with both hands holding the sword, the skill - sprint!

charge cut!

Bravely fight the three armies!

Jump and slash!

Using several movement skills in a row, Wu Jiu finally got out of the range of the little charmander's melee attack, but this is not over yet, the road ahead is long, and they still have to escape the dragon flame air attack of the three fire dragons all the way!

Isle of Drakeray, Isle of Dragonfire.After seeing this scene, you will find that the name has no water at all.

Wu Jiu quickly chased after Qian Li not far behind, the two of them were still tens of meters away from the edge of the battlefield, they usually arrived in a short run, but now it was the road of life and death.

20 meters left!

10 meters--

5 meters--

3 meters...2 meters...1 meters!

boom--!

Both of them took off at the last moment, the two figures were like a fish leaping over a dragon's gate, showing two smooth lines with a slight curvature, they landed almost at the same time, rolled forward a few times, the flames exploded behind them, and the skin could still feel the Scorching temperatures and expanding air currents.

The two of them probably didn't expect that one day they would experience this classic scene in the film and television drama together in the game.

When all the dust settled and the lair returned to calm, the two leaned against the rocks, feeling the undecided shock.

"Damn it...it's not easy to make money." Qianli sighed.

"Nothing is easy." Wu Jiu said, and took out the red dragon scale that they had worked so hard for from the package, and Qianli also hurriedly moved his head to look at it curiously.

This thing is really not small, wider than a normal person's chest, oval in shape, named Red Dragon Scale, but it is not red, but like its original owner, the whole body is a deep dark black.Qianli reached out and tried to lift it, "I'll go, it's quite heavy."

Wu Jiu then clicked on the attribute panel of Red Dragon Scale, and when he saw the detailed description, Qianli let out another "Yo".

Orange color.The orange color that makes people think about it and dream about it.

The two looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes.They preconceived that this would be a quest item, but they didn't expect it to be an extremely precious orange material.

They have analyzed before that there are only two ways to obtain orange product materials. One is wild map boss rewards, and the other is arena point exchange, which is extremely rare. This reward task has opened a new door for them, providing them with another a possibility.In this vast magical continent, you never know how many unknowns are waiting for you.

"Emma, ​​it's not bad." Qianli touched his chin, "Why don't we take it for ourselves."

"Is [-] gold or an orange product important?" Wu Jiu asked.

"Well... money is important. However," Qianli changed the subject, "we can try again—"

Wu Jiu was taken aback, he understood the implication, just to see if the red dragon scales could be a renewable resource, if they could master this method to generate infinite orange materials, they would make a lot of money.

However, with them, especially Qianli's state... come again?

Wu Jiu's expression didn't change much, but with his hesitation, Qianli already guessed what he was thinking, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, I'm not so crazy, it's the next time if I try."

"...No," Wu Jiu said calmly, "Countless lessons have taught me that you can't underestimate the extent of your perversion."

"What do you say?"

"As for."

Wu Jiu said, put the red dragon scales back into the package, stood up, looked at the sky, it was still as black as ink, and the moon was still hanging silently, peaceful and serene.In the distance, some stars flicker faintly, where the sea and sky meet, the waves undulate slightly, and the sound of the waves seems to be absent.

Qianli also stood up and yawned loudly, "I feel like I can sleep in seconds when I lie down now, I'm really old."

But no, when I was still in Lengtouqing, staying up all night, let alone staying up three nights was not a problem, but now I fell into depression after the usual bedtime, time is hard to control.

"Say old in front of me, how embarrassing do you make me feel." Wu Jiu said indifferently.

"Hey," Qianli smiled noncommittally, "Let's go, let's go back to the pier."

"There are wild areas around here," Wu Jiu said, "Go back to the nearest town by boat first, and then teleport back to the guild base."

The night was finally passed safely, and the two of them spent a lot of trouble in the middle of the night before they finally arrived at a small fishing boat. People plus fisherman, the Sanding people squeezed together and they still looked cramped, Wu Jiu and Qian Li didn't dare to lean on the edge, the fishing boat was too small, a slight loss of balance might capsize the boat.But both of them were exhausted, not only thousands of miles away, but because Drake Lei Island is fire-type, even the ground is warm, not to mention the fire dragon's attack, which is just in opposition to the ice-type Wugui, and the three fire-dragon brothers After a fierce battle, Wu Jiu's fatigue value also skyrocketed, basically not much better than Qianli.The two squatted face to face on the boat, discussed with big eyes and small eyes, and finally discussed a more comfortable posture - leaning back to back, providing each other with a place to exert strength.As the so-called effects of force are mutual, pay tribute to the great physics.

"I said," Qianli yawned again and again, "we should be considered Somei."

"Soumei?" Wu Jiu was confused.

"Then what, soul mate."

"...Pfft." Wu Jiu couldn't help laughing, Qianli was talking about soulmate.

"Isn't it? We've traveled to the world, crossed the sea, climbed the ice field and climbed the volcano together. It's time for us to achieve something."

"Have you achieved the achievement of 'Zhu Gu Sheng'?"

Two nerds who play games all year round are destined to have no time to fall in love.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha—"

Thousands of miles of hearty laughter rippling in the vast world.

Maybe Qianli is right.Wugui thought to himself.They are spending their best youth in this magical country, getting along day and night, fighting side by side, each other is clearly close at hand, but in fact, is far away.

Wugui suddenly remembered a sci-fi movie I watched not long ago.Although the plot is rather ridiculous, the connotation it expresses is worthy of further study-human beings have been breaking all kinds of constraints in the process of development-the constraints of the body, the constraints of space, and the constraints of time.In the ancient past, human beings may not be able to get out of the region where they were born in their entire lives. The distance from America to Asia is a universe. What about today?Man has landed on the moon.Throughout history, tuberculosis, leprosy, smallpox, and the bubonic plague were once terminal illnesses that symbolized death. What about now?

High technology itself is a myth.Today, people-to-people communication can reach each other directly across thousands of miles of rivers and mountains at any time.Words, pictures, sounds... Even, you appeared in front of me alive.

Wu Jiu felt more than once that he should be grateful to this era.This beautiful era has made so many impossibles possible.

Thinking deeper, will space travel and time travel really be possible one day? ——Not only in the game, but also in reality.

The solitary boat was floating on the vast ocean, and Drakeray Island gradually faded out of sight. For a long time, there was nothing but the sky and the sea as far as the eye could see.The fisherman didn't say a word, and the two quickly fell silent. The only sound left in the whole world was the paddle of the oars in the water.

Qianli closed his eyes and rested his mind. Suddenly, Wu Jiu's voice sounded low and deep.

"Thousands of miles."

"Ok?"

"Look."

Qianli opened his eyes slowly, a ray of light sprinkled on his face, the two turned their heads together and looked in the same direction.

The darkness was broken, the silence was broken, the long night came to an end, and a new day began.

"The sun is out." Wu Jiu said.

"what."

"I suddenly remembered..."

"what?"

"a book."

"Ok?"

"The Sun Also Rises."

"...what is it?"

"The translation is "The Sun Also Rises."

"Oh, what did you say?"

"It doesn't matter what you say... Although I like the author of this book, Hemingway, I don't feel very deeply about this article. I just think... the title of the book is very suitable for the occasion."

"The sun always rises..." Qianli repeated, "Hemingway, I know, "The Old Man and the Sea."

"Huh?" Wugui paused, "Have you seen it?"

"Haven't seen it. Have you seen it?"

"Of course. My favorite work. Because of this novel, I am particularly yearning for the sea."

"Really? I thought it was because of "One Piece" hahahahaha—"

Wugui also smiled, "'Is there any reason to prevent a man from going to sea?'"
