Chapter 30 Waiting
"We must move forward, or here, waiting until decay and death."
Until here, Lu Lie and Li Yuan had a huge difference in the direction of the road ahead for the first time. This difference is irreconcilable and unacceptable.
The two were silent. In this small thatched hut where the only sound could be heard, Lu Lie heard the north wind blowing outside the house. The sound was so sad that it seemed as if the whole world was crying.
"If there is a difference between the two, there is only one last choice." Lu Lie stood at the window of the small thatched hut and looked at the blue and desolate scenery in the distance, "That is, you stay here and I will continue to move forward."
"Is there any difference between who stays here and who continues to move forward?" Li Yuan was amused and crying, "The death of any of us will trigger the last retracement mechanism. One death is equivalent to the death of two people."
He said, "It's better to do this, Lu Lie. You take a step back, I'll take two steps back. We'll wait here for ten days, just ten days. If nothing happens in this small thatched hut within ten days, then we will embark on the road to keep going. What do you think?"
Lu Lie thought about it. No matter from which perspective, this is already the best solution.
However, he decided to bargain: "No, ten days are too long, up to five days."
Unexpectedly, Li Yuan immediately agreed: "Okay, I agreed, I will only have five days. After staying here for five days, if there is still no change, then we will continue to move forward."
Lu Lie was a little stunned: This guy had thought of staying for five days from the beginning, but considering that he might not agree, he deliberately quoted for ten days just to bargain for himself.
Therefore, these five most important days for Lu Lie's life, the biggest turning point of the whole book, the five days full of hope and despair, and the five days when everything finally fell into the ground were decided in this kind of playful situation.
...
On the first day of the small thatched hut.
Although it was agreed to be waiting, this did not prevent Li Yuan from running out and looking for something around the nearby area. Every once in a while, he brought back some strange creatures he had caught from nearby, such as blue monkeys whose head had lost their heads, but the wound on his neck had healed, and a blue snail with a skull. After bringing these strange creatures back, Li Yuan didn't talk nonsense and directly used the only table in the small thatched hut as an operating table. He didn't know what to do on it, and his flesh and blood were flying all day long.
However, Lu Lie simply found a place where no one disturbed him and lay down, slept with his eyes closed, and kept his energy well.
Soon, in Huangquan Middle School, the day was spent like this.
No stars all night.
In his dream, Lu Lie returned to the past. At that time, he was just a lowly wanderer, but he was the freest person in this world, and he was the uncrowned king in his own world.
The next day in the small thatched hut came soon. When Lu Lie woke up from his dream and opened his eyes, he did not see Li Yuan's voice. And on the wooden table was a blue monkey. Rather than saying that this was a blue monkey... it was better to say that the originally empty existence on the monkey's neck was artificially sewn on the head of a parrot.
Parrot monkey?
The parrot monkey saw Lu Lie at first sight, and scratched his neck with his monkey's claws, and then the parrot opened his mouth: "Good morning, young man."
"What's this?" Lu Lie was shocked by Xiao Xiao, "This is probably something that Li Yuan made."
"Li Yuan? That guy, I'm very grateful to him." The parrot monkey turned his parrot's head, "We have lived in this world for so many years. It is the first time that we have created something like intelligence. Also, it is really an interesting perspective to look at this world with human thinking."
"I'm going, so magical?" Lu Lie found that he underestimated Li Yuan's hands-on ability again and developed human intelligence for this weird Huangquan creature? Or did it take only one day? God knows what exactly is in this guy's head and how did he do it.
But just listening to the sound and not looking at the weird guy's appearance, it feels like an ordinary person is talking to him.
Lu Lie suddenly felt that Li Yuan might be working hard to open the door to a new world.
He asked carefully: "Well... that, brother parrot. You should still remember how you lived here before you opened your wisdom?"
The parrot monkey turned his head again and looked at Lu Lie with a contempt look. It was hard to imagine that the bird-head could make such a vivid human expression: "Are you a fool? You said it is 'we', not 'me'. Even at the age of three, you can see that 'we' is a combination of a parrot and a monkey?"
Lu Lie was completely speechless: "Okay, okay, brother Parrot Monkey, it was because I was wrong in wording, I was wrong."
Seeing that this guy's attitude of admitting his mistakes was pretty good, the combination of the parrot and the monkey nodded with satisfaction, as if he accepted the other party's apology: "Where did we talk about just now? Is it our memory of life in this area? We can tell you this way, we can't remember what happened too long, but we should still remember what happened recently before opening our minds."
"Tell me, boy, what are you asking?"
Lu Lie thought for a while: "What is the most dangerous creature in the area nearby?"
"The most dangerous creature." The parrot monkey stood up from the table and pointed proudly at himself, "You can ask such a stupid question? Of course, the two of us are the two of us? Look at the strong pectoral muscles and the powerful deltoid muscles. You can tell you irresponsibly that our parrot monkey is not only the most dangerous creature nearby, but also the deadliest hunter in the entire Yellow Spring Kingdom. As long as we are targeting, no one can escape alive."
Lu Lie rolled his eyes and said, "What a mess, this monkey is not a funny person created by Li Yuan simply because of boredom."
Thinking that having is better than not, he asked patiently: "Do you still remember what this world was formed? And what was the reason why you were originally born in this world?"
"Gret giggle giggle..." The parrot monkey danced excitedly, "Good question. You asked us this question because we were asking the right person."
