The Sabbath Chapter 196: The city of sky and sea
After going through a long tunnel, they finally saw the light, and at the end of the light was the transit point of their trip—the City of Philo!
The architectural style here is very different from what I have experienced before
The houses here are colorful! Next to the red house is a yellow house, and next to the yellow house may be a green house. Ronggui has never seen such a bold use of color on a house, and the whole city feels instantly lively!
These houses are still a little shimmering. Looking carefully, Ronggui discovered that the outer walls of the houses are not painted with ordinary paint, but a coating that looks like sand, sand of various colors, and occasionally There are shells embedded in it
Ronggui suddenly had a strange idea in his mind: Why do the houses here look so much like sandcastles?
It's the sandcastle where the kids built sandcastles by the sea.
Ronggui expressed his thoughts, he was joking, but Xiaomei nodded.
"Sand Castle? Well, it's a very appropriate way to say that the buildings here are indeed all built on the basis of sand."
"Huh?" Ronggui was surprised.
"It was originally developed as a port city, and 80% of its products are related to seafood. There is no industry or agriculture. Although the probability is not frequent, there is still the possibility of shipwreck, so here The building is adapted to local conditions, using the sand with the most abundant local storage, which is convenient and cheap to obtain materials, even if it is washed away in a shipwreck, it does not matter, and it can be quickly rebuilt after the disaster is over." Xiaomei explained for Ronggui.
"Hey? Hey? Hey!" There were more and more question marks in Ronggui's mind: "Is there a real sea in this port city?"
This is a tower. Ever since Ronggui knew about this, he imagined the place where he is now as a tower, er, a more vivid image might be a tree, with many branches under the root, and many hanging on it. Didou, that is, the cities they have experienced.
In general, this is a huge artificial building!
He can still understand that there are various passages here, but the sea is too—
Xiaomei nodded again.
Press a button on the console, and the metal plate on the roof of the big yellow car slowly moves away, revealing a sunroof, pointing to the position of the sunroof, Xiaomei motioned Ronggui to look up.
Ronggui raised his head obediently, and a beam of light hit the sky just at this moment, so that his vision was better, when he saw the sky clearly, Ronggui's eyes, Due to the lack of eyelids, Ronggui's eyes could no longer widen, so he opened his mouth wide.
"Oh my god" blankly, Ronggui was stunned.
The sky is like an ocean!
It simply violated the principle of gravity, the ocean that could only appear on the ground in his mind, actually appeared in the sky!
And the sea is still alive! Ronggui's eyesight is very good, he can even see the undulating waves on the sea! After a while, he even saw a picture of a huge fish jumping out of the sea!
Simply——
No, yes, think, discuss!
"Won't the sea, sea water fall down?" Ronggui immediately thought of a more realistic question.
"No, a special gravity system is used above, and all water surfaces are controlled within the specified gravity range, and no backflow will occur." Xiaomei said.
"Wow! Until now, I have the feeling that I am in the future!" Ronggui murmured, his eyes fixed on the dark ocean in the sky.
"The way of life in the underground city is indeed more retro, but the sky city is completely different. As the only way to go to the sky city, this place has already passed between the two." Xiaomei echoed him.
"Anyway, this is incredible." It was the first time that he realized that he was an "ancient man" from the past. Ronggui's eyes kept looking at the sky, and it seemed that he couldn't look away for a short time. .
Leave him to watch, Xiaomei is driving the rhubarb to line up to enter the city where they came out, strictly speaking, it is still outside the city. Like other cities, if you want to enter the city here, you need to verify your pass.
It is very difficult for people in the underground city to "go to the sky". The number of people who get the pass and want to pass through here to enter the sky city is actually not too many, but there is another identity here - it is a port city.
Since ancient times, no matter where the port city is, as long as it has something to do with "port", it must be a place where trade gathers.
A large number of goods from the sky city are often looted by buyers here, and the people of the sky city also need various minerals, food and various raw materials produced in the dungeon, and they generally do not go to the dungeon in person , as long as you wait here, there will naturally be countless merchants from the dungeon trying to come here with goods to find buyers.
This is the port city and trade city - Philo City!
It's the same today, there are so many cars coming here from various places in the dungeon! Rhubarb's stature was not enough to look at in front of those big trucks, and Rhubarb was parked in the convoy queuing up to enter the city, and Rhubarb was quickly submerged among the "strong men" companions.
Fortunately, the color of rhubarb is very eye-catching. In this kind of place, such small cars are rare, and those who drive this kind of car are basically those who have a pass to go to Sky City. Received a lot of envious eyes.
However, Xiaomei didn't care about it. After stopping the rhubarb, he also raised his head and began to share this unique sky with Ronggui.
In memory, he has entered Sky City through countless cities. The settings of these port cities are similar, and the sky is the ocean without exception. It stands to reason that he should not have any novelty about this ocean.
However, when he really raised his head and looked at the sea with Ronggui, he realized that perhaps he had never raised his head to take a good look at the sea and sky above his head before.
"Xiaomei! Look, there is a group of dolphins there! So there are dolphins here too!" As soon as Ronggui found out, he enthusiastically shared his discovery with Xiaomei. Point out that place to Xiaomei.
"Ah! Is that a whale? I haven't seen a real whale yet! But is there such a big whale?!" Ronggui made another discovery.
"My God! Xiaomei! Am I right? There is someone there! It's a person!" This discovery is really incredible, Ronggui actually saw a person in the sea water in the sky!
"Well, the people here live by the sea, so they naturally go fishing at sea. They have a special channel to enter the sea of sky. What you see should be fishermen." Looking at Ronggui's various discoveries It was the first time for Xiaomei to observe the ocean above her head so carefully.
It's strange to say that when you don't look at it, you just treat it as if it doesn't exist. Once you look at it, Xiaomei also observed a lot of scenery that Ronggui hadn't had time to see: "Look there is a fog over there, the sea area there should be It's raining."
"Wow, is the rain on the sea like this? It's so dreamy!" There was fog on one side and a calm sea on the other. After a while, Ronggui even saw something like lightning in the fog Sparks, that scene was really shocking!
The two of you just shared your discoveries with each other, and took a group photo from time to time. The long wait was not annoying at all. It was their turn to enter the city.
The passports of the two passed the inspection smoothly. The inspector handed them a chip and said to them with a smile: "Welcome to Philo City, I hope you enjoy your stay here before heading to Sky City. There is a city map and various matters needing attention on this chip, I hope you can spend a little time browsing it later."
"Goodbye!"
A snow-white seabird with huge wings flies past their car window, the invisible gear lever in front of Rhubarb is removed, and they can enter the city!
Xiaomei immediately turned on the chip, and the map of Philo City instantly appeared in Rhubarb's memory, and he sorted and displayed the contents of the chip on the screen in front of Ronggui and Xiaomei.
"We have to do the quarantine registration first." After quickly browsing the contents of the chip, Xiaomei came to her conclusion.
"Well! Listen to you" For any decision made by Xiaomei, Ronggui always agrees with both hands and feet!
Xiaomei showed a faint smile and drove Dahuang towards the quarantine station.
There are also crowds of people here: all incoming goods need to be inspected here! So do all of you! One can imagine how many people are here.
However, as residents of Xiaomei and Ronggui who are going to live in Sky City, the floor of the quarantine station they go to is different from others.
There are very few people queuing here.
Nowadays, the quarantine method is very developed. Xiaomei was given a drop of blood, and Ronggui was only asked to enter a glass room for a minute.
The results won't come out until a day later, and they're going to stare at rhubarb for quarantine next.
It's okay for Da Huang, Da Hei and Xiao Hei are fine, but Xiao Huang is a bit troublesome.
As a species that is not on the existing quarantine list, the appearance of Xiao Huang surprised the staff of the quarantine station!
The director of the quarantine station actually showed up! A group of experts carefully studied Xiao Huang for three hours, collecting fur and blood, and finally gave Xiao Huang a name of "rare species"!
"Well, according to the law, all new species discovered must be registered in the register for data entry, and the names of the discoverer and the owner should be written, but as for the name of the new species, the few of us have already figured it out I found a very suitable name, can you see if it can be used?" The director of the quarantine station said coyly for a long time, and the co-author wanted Ronggui and the others to use their own name.
"The names you gave are" Rong Gui tilted his head.
"The ancestor of the red-tailed golden feather walks in the ground!"
"" Ronggui's mouth suddenly opened.
Isn't this Xiao Huang just a chicken? Xiao Huang with red tail did have a bunch of red hair growing on his **** recently, he looked a bit like a mixed-feathered chicken, and the one with golden feather was obviously yellow hair! These are okay to say, with the adjective ancestor
Sounds very domineering, is it true? !
It's so domineering that it doesn't look like a chicken!
Although he was taken aback for a while, under the watchful eyes of the prison staff, Ronggui finally agreed to their suggestion.
Thus, they inexplicably became the caretakers of the only rare bird in existence.
However, after such a commotion, Ronggui was finally able to confirm one thing.
"Xiao Huang, Xiao Huang, experts say that you might be the only chick in existence, and you seem destined to be a bachelor." Ronggui stretched out his hand and gently patted Xiao Huang's head.
Xiao Huang just rubbed against him, and then continued to run to the place where the food was put, eat and eat!
