The Empire's First Fleet is defeated, and the calm, beautiful, undefeated First Commander Shen Que is severely injured, becoming a frail invalid.
Even more shocking news arrives:
Th...
After Xiao Shen said this.
Shen Que was stunned first.
That's... something he would say.
However, the next second, he saw Tuanzi Pei's little face full of grievance and confusion.
His eyes widened in disbelief, his eye sockets turned red, and his lips began to tremble.
Tears seemed to fill up my eyes in an instant, and then fell one after another.
"You..." Pei Ji wiped his face with his small hands, "You are too much!!"
"I never said I hate you. I just said I hate this place, I hate sweet things... Those little cakes are not tasty at all... I don't even want worms anymore, but I came to eat cake with you guys. What else do you want from me, wooooa ...
He cried.
When Pei Ji burst into tears, the sunlight outside the house suddenly became extremely scorching.
Chen Que watched in horror as the bakery began to deform, the walls began to peel, softening and melting bit by bit like paint...
Pei Ji was still crying sadly, but the others seemed to be still.
Suddenly, Shen Que found that he could control his body.
He quickly jumped off the stool and ran towards Pei Ji.
"Admiral!"
He hugged Pei Ji, but soon found that he had no strength to pull Pei Ji out of Pei Li's hands.
Shen Que could only stand on tiptoe to hold Pei Ji's face.
"Stop crying! This place is going to collapse, come with me!"
At this time, the roof had collapsed due to melting, and rubble fell from above and began to burn in the air.
The plants on the windowsills wilted, and the air was filled with the smell of burning charcoal.
Shen Que was suddenly stunned.
That's the smell of Pei Ji's pheromones...
"General!" He helped little Pei Ji wipe his tears. "Look at me, look at me... You are in the Sea of Life. This place is fake, but I am real! I'm here to take you back!"
But Pei Ji remained indifferent. He seemed to be caught in some emotional whirlpool and had no way to escape.
The melting began to affect those inside the house.
Sparks flew out from the end of Pei Ji's hair and dissipated like fragments.
Just then, the door of the bakery was slammed open.
A tall and thin young man rushed in.
He was wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and light boots, and had a sketchpad tucked under his arm.
Shen Lu? !
Surprise flashed in Shen Que's eyes.
He suddenly realized that Chen Lu had been missing from this scene.
The first time Shen Lu saw Shen Que, he stretched out his hand, "Xiao Que, catch me!"
Shen Que didn't respond to him immediately.
As if knowing what he was hesitating about, Shen Lu spoke faster than ever before: "He will be fine! I promise you! Catch me quickly! Otherwise you will die!"
Shen Que hesitated for two seconds, and finally let go of Pei Ji and grabbed Shen Lu's hand.
Before being pulled out, he looked back at Pei Ji again.
The little girl curled up slightly and raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
But the more I tried to wipe my tears, the harder they flowed.
He was like a child without comfort, scorching under the scorching sun, and he and the bakery were on the verge of collapse.
…
Shen Que was pulled out of the water by Shen Lu, and the water flowed off him.
He took deep breaths of fresh air, his chest heaving violently.
The feeling of suffocation slowly faded away.
Shen Que looked at the man in front of him.
Chen Lu looked much older than he did in the previous scene. He was still wearing a white shirt and black pants. His mental state seemed to be better than the last time he came to the Sea of Life. At least he didn't look so tired at first glance.
"Are you okay?" Shen Lu asked with concern.
Shen Que coughed twice and held Shen Lu's arm with his backhand, "What happened? Where is Pei Ji?"
"Don't be nervous, he... is fine now." Shen Lu patted Shen Que's shoulder, "Just take it easy, I'll tell you slowly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Que felt something furry moving beside him. He looked down and saw it was a kitten.
There was one more than before, rubbing against his palm.
Chen Que picked up the two and kissed them one by one.
The kitten squinted its eyes and meowed in enjoyment. The coquettish sound made his violently beating heart slowly calm down.
Only then did he have the mind to look at the scenery around him.
This is a lake as clear as a mirror.
The hideous vines and the abyss where he had fallen before were gone, leaving only a shallow layer of water.
There are many golden grasses growing in the water, some of which are even blooming.
Some roots emerged from the water, intertwined together, like small islands on the water.
There are still some tree trunks as far as the eye can see.
Shen Que looked up along the tree trunk, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
I saw countless golden branches intertwined in the air, stretching for thousands of miles, sometimes sparse, sometimes dense, weaving into a huge canopy, covering the top of the head, like a new sky.
Flocks of golden birds flew under the treetops, occasionally resting on branches, or falling into the water and turning into swimming fish.
The trunks of the trees in the shallows all stretched towards the sky, supporting this golden canopy, while all the branches stretched towards a tree in the distance that was beyond imagination.
That is the center of the lake, the intersection of all branches and leaves.
Shen Que couldn't estimate the distance between him and the huge tree.
All you can see is that the closer you get to it, the more lush the branches and leaves become, and the more active the living things become.
"Your little friend helped me clean up the bugs and repaired the damage." Shen Lu pointed to the top of his head.
Shen Que looked where he pointed, and beyond the intertwined branches, he could vaguely see some twisted holes.
Those holes were filled with layers of leaves, and some branches were even growing continuously, making the new sky more solid and dense.
