Otherworldly Architect

"Do you need help? I can also help put on the umbrella bag."

The girl hasn't come over yet.

I heard Xia Cheng say without turning his head: "You are too weak! Just watch!"

girl:"……"

On the contrary, Mingyan saw that she was a beautiful girl, so he smiled: "It's okay, I don't need help here."

In a blink of an eye, the aircraft has already driven above the predetermined location.

It was a man-made forest, but overall it was pure natural.

A dense sea of ​​trees extends from the front to the sky, and a river winds down in the middle, forming a small waterfall at the boundary of the terrain.

"Our task this time is limited to three days. Follow the leader through this forest belt, walk down the small river, find a way to climb down the waterfall, and continue along the river to reach the hut. Is everything ok?"

Several people responded sparsely.

The goal of survival in the wilderness was set early in the morning, and everyone was fully prepared.

Well, of course, the preparation of the rich second generation is done by their instructors.

Immediately, the aircraft hovered smoothly, and the hatch on one side opened.

The high-altitude wind rushed in immediately.

The instructor said loudly: "Get ready now, listen to the order to parachute! The instructor will follow you closely. The parachutes are all electromagnetically bound, 100% absolutely safe! Take a deep breath, don't be afraid!"

Several people lined up to start skydiving.

Xia Cheng was in front of Mingyan. He seemed to be very proficient, and he joked leisurely: "It's a pity that electromagnetic binding requires students and instructors. Otherwise, I can actually take you."

It's not enough to say it clearly, his face turned pale, and he said: "Be careful."

Xia Cheng laughed and said, "I'll wait for you to come down!"

After finishing speaking, he gestured with two fingers, faced Mingyan, and fell backwards into the air.

This gesture is still learned from Mingyan.

Mingyan stepped on the edge of the aircraft and didn't have time to look down.

The instructor behind him suddenly pushed.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-"

The unprepared Mingyan let out a scream! !

Skydiving in this era is very safe and worry-free. After reaching the specified height, the parachute will automatically open, and the direction of the fall can also be adjusted to ensure that it falls in the middle of the forest and will not be scattered with other people.

Mingyan felt his whole body tense suddenly in the air, and his shoulders were lifted.

This is the opening of the umbrella, and he began to slowly float down.

Only then did he open his eyes and saw the magnificent sea of ​​trees on the ground, and companions on both sides who also opened umbrellas.

Xia Cheng reached the ground and retracted the paracord.

When the instructor briefly checked him, he still felt annoyed, so he looked up at Mingyan.

Mingyan floated down with an expression of "I'm going to die, I'm going to die", and it hung in front of Xia Cheng's eyes.

Xia Cheng stepped forward quickly, helped him untie the umbrella rope, and said with a smile: "Look, it's not that scary."

Mingyan was a little unsteady on the ground, got out tremblingly, his face was pale with cold, and said: "It's obviously scary..."

His heart was still beating wildly.

Xia Cheng grabbed Mingyan's hands and found that he was shaking from the cold, so he naturally put his hands together and let out a sigh of relief.

Half a minute later, Mingyan's hands became warmer, his heartbeat resumed, and his face was tinged with blood.

Xia Cheng said, "Okay."

But he didn't let go of his hand, and walked aside with Mingyan, watching the rest of the members continue to land.

Mingyan's instructor came down, looked left and right, there was nothing wrong with him at all.

Then, I saw Xia Cheng's instructor standing in the corner, looking at Xia Cheng blankly.

Two transparent people.

Taking care of Mingyan's first time participating in club activities, the task this time is very simple.

Xia Cheng said: "In the past, we challenged high difficulty and went to snow fields and deserts. The most exciting time was walking on the plateau for seven consecutive days before finally finding the target location."

While talking, he picked the stem of a plant next to him and said with a smile: "This can keep the fire."

Break off one of the ends, and the inside is indeed hollow.

The two immediately found a dry open space and put down the materials along the way.

Xia Cheng instructed: "You can use the bow and rope method to drill wood to make fire, do you want to try it?"

He asked Mingyan to sit in front, and then taught him how to use the tools.

The bow rope method is a bit like sawing wood with a rope. It seemed interesting, so Mingyan tried it.

After sawing for a long time, some smoke came out, but the sparks disappeared.

Mingyan's hands were numb, and he had no choice but to give up.

Xia Cheng, who was sitting behind him, quickly took over his unfinished business, and actually sparked sparks within a few minutes.

Put in the sawdust, then hold it in the palm of your hand and blow it gently.

The fire that symbolizes civilization has become.

Xia Cheng's handsome face was illuminated by the fire, and stars seemed to be shining in his eyes.

"Just waiting for you to rub it warm. Hehe, the tinder is mine~" he said.

Mingyan was startled: "You're just sitting back and enjoying the benefits! At least I should be counted as a shareholder, right?"

Xia Cheng reluctantly said: "Well, for the sake of your good looks."

After lighting the improvised torch, he put the kindling back into the container and stuck it in his belt.

This movement is skillful, and it looks like a very experienced person.

Mingyan stared at his back waist, wondering why he hadn't noticed before, this man still has a thin and narrow waist.

Following the light and heat of the torches, they were not disturbed by snakes or insects when they walked through the trees.

Two instructors, Gu Jing, followed silently, each carrying a medical kit, which basically eliminated the possibility of accidents.

The rest of the people followed behind them, walking in the same direction, but they haven't touched the top yet.

Survival in the wilderness is only interesting if there are few people.

The seasoned Xia Cheng quickly found the water's edge.

Then he commanded Mingyan, and the two of them tied up a crude raft and pushed it to the water's edge.

"Are you afraid of the cold?" Xia Cheng asked.

Mingyan hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay."

Xia Cheng dragged his coat and wrapped Ming Yan in it without any explanation.

Mingyan was about to speak when he stopped him.

"Hurry up and hug the raft!" Xia Cheng said.

The raft was small, just enough for two people to hug one side, and it was washed down by the current immediately.

The two instructors were awesome, each with a medical kit on their backs, chasing after them.

But at this time, Mingyan didn't notice outsiders at all.

All his strength was used to keep his muzzle afloat.

The river water in March is still frighteningly cold, as if it wants to take away every inch of heat from the body.

At last the raft was in front of the waterfall and got stuck on the protruding rocks.

Xia Cheng grabbed Mingyan with one hand and lifted him out of the stream.

You can't usually see how strong he is.

Mingyan tremblingly followed behind him, walked for a while, and sat down on a windshield under a boulder.

The importance of keeping the tinder was also quickly reflected.

At this time, Xia Cheng took out the container and quickly re-lit a bonfire.

He rubbed Mingyan's cold fingers and said, "Why are you so cold? Take off all your clothes."

Ming Yan was speechless, so he took off his jacket and trousers, leaving only a pair of shorts, leaning against the side to warm himself by the fire.

"Socks!" Xia Cheng motioned.

Mingyan's fingers are not too cold from the cold, and he also finds it hard to bend over.

Xia Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he walked over and raised Ming Yan's leg, stretched out his hand to brush it twice, and took off Ming Yan's socks.

The campfire made a lively "crackling" sound, and the warm red fire light illuminated the rocks and bushes on both sides.

Mingyan warmed up a bit, and said, "I... I have a fish in my trouser pocket."

Xia Cheng touched it, and it was true, exclaimed: "You are lucky!"

Mingyan smiled.

People who have come out of the last days, of course, feel very nervous about every ounce of food around them.

At that time, when Lan Xing was still in the ice and snow, it was everyone's instinct to bring out all moving things from the water.

Xia Cheng recovered quickly, and with his upper body naked, he ran to the river to fish.

That fit body really doesn't look like a pampered young master.

Although his fishing skills are a little rusty, his movements are smooth and natural, with well-defined muscle lines on his arms.

Mingyan originally wanted to go up to help, but after looking at it, he suddenly had a strong inspiration.

Xia Cheng managed to fork two fish, thinking that it should be enough for two people's dinner.

When he ran back quickly, he saw Mingyan holding freshly burnt charcoal in one hand, scribbling on the rock with his butt pouted.

"What are you drawing?" he asked.

Mingyan said without raising his head: "Inspiration! I want to make a two-player cooperative adventure game! The theme is survival in the apocalypse!"

Xia Cheng: "..."

Well, Chief Designer Ming is still Chief Designer Ming.

"In ancient times, you were the philosopher who shouted 'Don't step on my circle' before he died..."

Xia Cheng muttered, skewered the fish, and put it next to the campfire for barbecue.

Mingyan finally finished writing, put on dry and warm clothes, and sat back beside the campfire.

That peaceful demeanor, as if having warmth is the happiest thing in the world.

It looks good at first glance.

Xia Cheng watched and laughed for some reason.

I was about to say something, but I was interrupted by an outsider.

An instructor came over, holding something in his hand, and said, "We roasted some nuts, and these are for you."

Xia Cheng said: "No need..."

Said plainly: "Thank you!"

There was a two second pause.

Clearly said: "Okay, no need."

Xia Cheng smiled, took all the nuts, turned his head and said, "Hiss, they are still hot, come here quickly."

Mingyan stretched out his hand, and immediately two hot fruits fell into his palm, with a tempting fragrance coming out of it.

"Thank you." Ming Yan said.

Xia Cheng shamelessly said: "You're welcome, call brother quickly."

Mingyan immediately lowered his head to peel the nuts, trying to cover his mouth with the fragrant pulp.

Instructor: "..." No, I gave the nuts!Does it have anything to do with him? !

At this time, another instructor turned out from behind and nodded his shoulder expressionlessly.

The two sighed in unison, and disappeared into the background panel silently.

Early the next morning, Xia Cheng woke Mingyan up from the campfire.

The sun is rising vigorously, like a vibrant poached egg.

Mingyan's stomach growled, and Xia Cheng smiled and stuffed him with two more fruits.

The two walked down the stream and soon came to the small waterfall.

The canine-toothed rocks cut the water flow into several streams. Although it prevents the possibility of people going down the river, it also provides a shortcut to slowly climb down.

"I'll go down first, you go directly to the place I climbed, it's stronger." Xia Cheng said.

He didn't say no, Xia Cheng is indeed more experienced.

The stream water is still cold, and it has a great impact.

Mingyan moved down slowly, and when he got to the bottom one, Xia Cheng at the bottom grabbed his waist and hugged him directly.

"Stop, it's so itchy!" Ming Yan yelled.

Xia Cheng had a smirk on his face, and continued to scratch him until he couldn't stop laughing, then let him go.

Prepared this time, they only wet their coats.

A little trimming on the shore, it is said that after basking in the sun, I feel warm again.

The next river bank was relatively irregular, so the two walked hand in hand for a while.

From a distance, they saw the silhouette of a windmill ahead—human civilization was just around the corner.

As long as you walk to the target location, this time the "wilderness survival" operation will be successfully concluded.

Mingyan was still sighing, but Xia Cheng's face suddenly came closer.

Mingyan was taken aback: "What's wrong?"

Xia Cheng said: "No, no, this event is not complete yet. You haven't experienced real survival..."

Mingyan: "Really?"

Xia Cheng smiled, took out a pack of leaves from his pocket, and opened it layer by layer, revealing the roasted protein inside——

Grilled bug meal.

"People who have never eaten insects are not qualified to say that they have survived in the wilderness." Xia Cheng said with a smirk.

Clearly stated: "..."

At this time, seeing Mingyan expressionless, he took a handful of dried worms from inside and put them in his mouth to chew.

Now it was Xia Cheng's turn to be dumbfounded.

After chewing carefully, Mingyan commented: "It should be dug out from the bottom of the stone. It is rich in minerals and tastes good."

Then he clapped his hands, took the bag of grilled bugs by the way, and said, "Let's go, this bag will be a snack."

Xia Cheng couldn't turn the corner, and said, "You... this... have you eaten it before?"

The interstellar people have basically never eaten such a simple meal!

After all, the Rising Sun Alliance spans so many star provinces, sits on thousands of star systems, and needs to develop other worlds. The supplies are so abundant that they can't run out.

It's normal for interstellar people to never eat bugs. They can eat whatever they want, and it's all cheap as hell.

Mingyan is different.

At the end of the Blue Star, the most tenacious insects in life could survive to the last few days...

Many humans survive on the protein provided by these insects.

Being able to eat something is already a gift from heaven, who would pick and choose?

"Chicken flavor, crunchy and crispy." Mingyan commented, twisted another one and ate it.

Xia Cheng looked at him, and said after a while: "It seems that I still don't know you well enough."

Probably because they had already seen their destination, they walked the last part of the journey with ease.

Xia Cheng even had time to pick the freshly bloomed flowers on the road next to him.

These poor little flowers finally formed a few flower buds in March, but Xia Cheng broke them off cruelly and made them into a wreath.

His craftsmanship is really not that good, and he wanted to force Mingyan to wear it.

Mingyan had a bunch of small flowers on his head, and after thinking about it, he suddenly became happy: "Well, wearing a wreath on your head can increase your San value, there's nothing wrong with it!"

Xia Cheng: "?"

The chief designer of Ming Dynasty started to design again.

Xia Cheng suddenly felt that he was very transparent.

The two instructors were about to cry.

They feel that they are not transparent anymore, almost a vacuum.

The kind that can neither be seen nor touched.

Xia Cheng and Mingyan were the first to reach their destination.

The people in the back traveled around the mountains and rivers all the way, and brought a few girls with them, so they walked a little slower.In the early morning of the third day, we reached the target location.

At this time, both Xia Cheng and Ming Yan had washed up, and had a good night's sleep on the bed.

The two of them sat in the dining room with breakfast in their well-dressed clothes, and watched other people walk into the hall in a hurry.

"Pfft." Mingyan suddenly laughed.

Xia Cheng looked at him and said seriously: "Boss Ming, sometimes I think you're a little dark-bellied."

Mingyan: "Huh?"

Xia Cheng leaned closer and whispered, "You have a little devil living in your heart, I can see it. You like to make your players cry..."

"Cough!" Mingyan said with a serious expression, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm a decent person!"

Really, he thinks this is obviously the commonality of all human beings - he just likes to play some "touching" games, which is normal!

At this time, the club manager stood by, watching the two big men leaning together and whispering.

What are you talking about?

He thought, to be so secretive and cautious, he must be talking about state affairs!

Maybe it's talking about the tax issue of the sixth star province?

When I think about it this way, I feel awe-inspiring and stand upright.

By the way, two beautiful girls who wanted to come and accompany were stopped outside.

"What are you doing! They are talking about something important over there!" the manager said seriously, "You are not allowed to disturb me!"

Ming said that the two had their blood pressure measured after breakfast, and after confirming their health, they came out of the club.

Xia Cheng's driver had been waiting by the car for a long time, but this time he changed to a low-key domestic car.

Xia Cheng said: "Shall I take you home?"

"No." Ming Yan said, "Go back to my adoptive parents' house today to get something."

"..." Xia Cheng hesitated for a moment, "Oh, okay."

I don't know why, maybe it's an obvious illusion.

Xia Cheng seemed to shrink his neck subconsciously when he heard the word "parents" clearly stated.

It's just two plain-headed people, Xia Cheng doesn't seem to be able to get in touch with them, why is he a little scared?

Mingyan blinked his eyes.

Xia Cheng said: "Just, just say hello for me. Next time I will prepare a gift and visit them!"

Ming Yan was overjoyed, and said: "If you want to be a guest, you can come here casually, why are you so polite?"

"No, no, no..." Xia Cheng said, "I'm afraid my uncle will beat me... Cough, anyway, let's talk about it next time."

Mingyan: "?"

Mingyan was full of confusion, and waved goodbye to Xia Cheng.

Then, Mingyan also refused to send him to the club.

There are luxury cars all over the place, and he felt that driving into the ordinary neighborhood of his adoptive parents might not cause a sensation.

In the end, he just found a shared electric wheel, rode on it again, and walked home leisurely.

In fact, he went back this time to get his personal credit card.

Although he has moved out and lives next to the studio, the delivery address is still at home; after the bank gold card is completed, because he clearly stated that he is not at home, he first mailed it to his adoptive parents.

On the way back, Mingyan felt comfortable physically and mentally.

He realized that he was really stretched too tight in the past two years, and he never took a vacation.

He has not yet fully integrated into the interstellar era, and his mentality is still full of anxiety and pressure, which is not good.

This entertainment made his tense body and mind relax, and he even started to listen to and appreciate the music on the roadside...

—Hey, wait, this music sound?

Across the wall, flamboyant and unrestrained singing came wantonly.

[You buried all the recordings in the backyard,

I'll dig them out again when you're not watching. 】

It's rock music.

Filled with passionate and unrestrained feelings, with domineering and straightforward accusations, and unyielding belief?

As soon as you hear it, your pores will open, and you can't help but move to the beat.

Mingyan was suddenly interested.

He controlled the small electric wheel and drove towards the direction of the singing.

The girl who sang the song seemed to be full of resentment, and every line of the lyrics was sonorous and powerful, as if it wanted to pierce into the veins of every listener.

That's right, it's the feeling of rock and roll.

【You are not listening, you will not understand

you're not listening, you won't understand

...]

A howl that is more frantic than a fanatic may be a complete vent.

But it's good music.

Because it reminded Mingyan of the days when he was struggling to survive in the dark...the hysterical days.

All art that can arouse the feelings of human beings is good art.

Mingyan turned the corner of the street, and suddenly heard someone shouting and cursing in the house next door.

"Smelly girl! Sing and sing all day! What are you singing! It's so noisy!"

Mingyan glanced at it, then continued to follow the sound of the music.

He saw an abandoned garage, and at the moment there was a young girl screaming at the top of her lungs.

Mmm, punk girl.

He was wearing a tattered denim hole suit, with two thin braids on his head, and metal pendants all over his body.

She turned her face, and sure enough, her face was covered with a lot of make-up, and she also wore nose rings and lip rings.

"Uncle! What are you looking at!" the punk girl said bluntly.

Mingyan twitched the corner of his mouth: "Uncle?"

His attire is a bit downcast, and the new stubble has not been shaved properly.

After all, I just came out of the Wilderness Survival Club... Being busy in the world is a kind of fun, and it is also a means used by the nobles to pretend to be aggressive.

But it's not enough to be considered an uncle, right? !

Mingyan was not polite to her, so he sat down on the bench with half a box of pizza next to him, and said casually, "Your singing is pretty good."

The punk girl grinned, showing a wicked smile, and said, "Uncle, do you know music too?"

"I don't understand music, but I have ears." Ming Yan said.

He fumbled in his pocket, took out a piece of paper, and quickly wrote two sentences, saying: "Your song is very powerful, but the lyrics are not enough. Try this sentence."

The punk girl took the paper and looked at the letter suspiciously.

Suddenly, she trembled, and a red light of excitement appeared on her face.

The music machine quickly played the drums again with the unimpeded flow of electricity and the girl's movements.

[You buried all the recordings in the backyard,

I'll dig them out again when you're not looking.

You can also bury my body in the backyard,

I'll dig myself out when you don't care about me anymore! 】

The punk girl paused for a while, panting, and laughed excitedly: "Hehe, not bad!"

Mingyan's eyes brightened, and he said, "Your composition is very good. Are you interested in coming to our studio to make music?"

"..." The girl looked Mingyan from head to toe again, "Uncle, have you had enough to eat? I will pay you 200 yuan for these two lines of lyrics. Go and buy something to eat."

Clearly stated: "..."

Don't look at his downcast appearance, he is actually a hidden billionaire, okay?
