Chapter 182: The first day in the Sky City, it's great

Next, the little friends took turns to teach the new Palu "chicken snake" a lesson, and the "cluck, cluck" sounds continued.

Lu Yuan found a cellar between some rocks and crawled in.

In the narrow square room, the long-lost sunlight penetrated through the crack of the door, making the dust sparkle.

As soon as he entered, he was slightly stunned.

A dried mummy lay peacefully on the bed, its head tilted and its eyes looking at him empty.

Lu Yuan swallowed, held his breath, and waited for several seconds.

“We found the museum’s treasure so quickly!”

I took a stick and poked it carefully, but the other party did not move or pretend to be dead.

After studying the mummy carefully again, he found that it actually looked very much like a human.

He is about 1.7 meters tall, with blue hair, smooth skin without hair, and slightly pointy ears, a bit like an elf in a fantasy novel.

She was dressed in rich silks and had gold bracelets on her wrists.

Even though she's just a mummy, she actually looks like a beautiful woman...

This creature looked so much like a human that Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel suspicious...

He saw another photo on the wall, which was a family portrait of the unknown civilization.

There are five people in total, and they are hazy and not very clear.

They were smiling at him.

There is a unique beauty of time.

"A race that looks similar to humans."

This mysterious phenomenon of convergent evolution can only be attributed to the fact that we all have a common ancestor.

Just as there are wolves on Earth, there are also wolves in Pangaea.

It is said that the common ancestor of mankind was an ancient ape-man named "Lucy" who lived about 3.2 million years ago - this is amazing.

Just like "Adam and Eve" in religious legends, human beings actually have a common ancestor.

"Looking like a human, isn't that good?" The old cat jumped in from the cellar entrance and said thoughtfully, "It fits your aesthetic concept, and maybe there is no reproductive isolation."

"Even if I'm hungry, I can't be so perverted..."

Lu Yuan said angrily: "This is a mummy that has been dead for ten thousand years. Are you crazy?"

…

This place seemed to be a small bedroom. After searching for a long time, I found no useful information except some bottles and jars.

Lu Yuan didn't want to move the mummy rashly. What if its skin was full of bugs? The scene would be terrifying just to think about it...

I could only walk to the surface, spent some time finding another room, and then went in.

It's quite fresh and dry here, and there are no living creatures.

Maybe it was a large hall used for worship? There were lighting tools installed on the ceiling, but there was no power source and it couldn't be lit.

The walls were carved with exquisite but blurry murals: on a certain magical day, graceful priests performed a mysterious dance.

They put palm branches on their chests and used beautiful hand drums to interpret their beliefs.

In a faraway place, where the earth meets the sky, there is a huge tree shining with brilliant light. White doves bring back graceful branches from there, allowing the city to rise from the ground and all things to gain happiness.

Lu Yuan thought of the [monster] that had escaped, which was the big tree on the mural. He didn't know what had happened that caused this powerful civilization to fall, and even the [monster] had escaped.

"Ms. Conch, do you have any memories of this place?"

The conch looked at the mural curiously.

A long time passed.

[I don’t know. I just don’t like this city instinctively.]

【But I have no memory of this. 】

She said gloomily: "But if you like it, it's okay. I will get used to it eventually. It's better than the desert outside."

"Do you... want to be resurrected?" Lu Yuan asked tentatively.

He has accumulated 5 fruits of life.

After eating the corpses of so many visions, the Tree of Life finally grew a little.

[I don't want to be resurrected...Isn't it good like this now? ]

[Also, Mr. Lu, my divine attributes are too high. The fruit of life you are currently cultivating may not be able to help me reshape my body.]

[I may not even be an intelligent life here...]

Miss Sazae was a little nervous because she didn't know her identity or origin.

She sighed and said quietly: [What if... I am a tank? ]

Lu Yuan almost had a nosebleed: "Who taught you these words?!"

[Mr. Turtle, it said it was a heavy tank.]

【Maybe I am also a turtle? 】

Grandpa Turtle heard their conversation and exhaled heavily through his nose: "Is the tank not good? Is the turtle not good?"

[What if I am a bug?] She gave up on herself.

"If you're a bug, people will vote you out."

The old cat also stretched out his furry paws: "You may be the Rat King."

[Too evil... I actually had expectations for you scumbags, I'm so stupid.] She was in a bad mood and sulked there, [I'm just a bug! I'm the rat king!]

Lu Yuan had to give a piece of shiny gold and a sky-blue sapphire he had picked up to appease this little garbage man who loved picking up trash.

"Ahem, my friends, let's use this room as a temporary base. Everyone, please rest here first. Tell me if you need anything."

"I'll go out and look around to find a more suitable room for everyone. I'll be able to fully respect your privacy then."

He took the evil and crazy wolf for a stroll around the area.

The old wolf seemed very excited, and his big tail was shaking like an electric fan.

It was actually here and smelled the scent of its own kind, and its heart, which had been depressed for a long time, began to stir.

"There are wolves here too?!" Lu Yuan pinched his nose in disgust.

To be honest, this oasis is actually not small. The upper and lower floors together cover almost 2,000 square kilometers.

It is about the size of a county-level city.

It's not surprising that wolves live here.

"Then go ahead, don't die, bring back some new Palu." Lu Yuan patted its butt.

The guy crossed his legs, peed, made a mark here, and disappeared into the ruins.

It is a smart, battle-hardened old creature, so Lu Yuan is actually not worried about anything.

He was alone and groping.

Soon, he found something familiar... the carvings on the wall! But these things were so worn out that even with Lu Yuan's current carving attainments, he couldn't see clearly what they were.

"It might be the glyph of 'Solidity'... the most basic thing."

Then he found a red gem that sparkled in the sun.

[An artificial crystal stone, the idealistic energy in it can assist in cultivating extraordinary fire, but it is now damaged. (Low-quality artificial wonder)]

"This thing seems to be quite awesome..."

An extraordinary and magical object that can penetrate into the people and be used for spiritual practice is a subtle proof of the power and wealth of that civilization.

It feels great, there are treasures and garbage everywhere!

His "explorer's eyes" were beating and flashing like a vicious dog smelling fresh liver.

There were countless gold, silver, and metal debris.

Even though most of the things exposed on the surface are incomplete, a city still has many buildings, and the materials stored inside are considered to be "worth picking up."

In three hours, I found a scrapped bookcase with more than 20 books on it. The papers were stuck together. I wonder if it is possible to repair it...

I picked up a pair of shoes, made of a rope woven from some branches and straw.

He discovered 14 insects such as sewer centipedes and sewer snails, as well as creatures such as antelopes, armadillos, pheasants, and birds. Lu Yuan quite liked seeing these wild animals, as it meant that there was a relatively stable ecosystem here and people could live here for a long time.

He picked up a longbow with the bowstring completely broken - this weapon perfectly matched Lu Yuan's imagination of an "elf".

I picked up an object that looked like a bra... um... gold?

Picked up... a dozen ceramic containers.

I also found several mummies. Can they be considered treasures? After searching several rooms, Lu Yuan took a deep breath.

"There's nothing to pick up in civilian houses."

"If you're going to pick something up, you're going to pick up some big ones!"

As it grew darker, Lu Yuan felt a little tired and returned to his room.

He gave the books to Miss Conch, took out a blanket and lay down on it to rest.

It’s nice to have a place that’s sheltered from the wind and rain.

A feeling of exhaustion arose in my heart.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Human happiness is indeed created by comparison.

At this moment, no big goals have been accomplished.

Just lying there comfortably, hugging a fluffy blanket, I actually felt a genuine sense of happiness.

"It's a great first day in the Sky City."

[I can understand the words above...] said the conch in a clear voice.

"Well, go ahead."

[This is actually a whole novel called I Pick Up Trash in Pangu Continent. It seems very interesting.]

【Would you like me to read it to you? 】

"No, you check first to see if there is any other useful information. I have something else to do..." Lu Yuan made the Tree of Life spit out another small vine with a scarlet eyeball on it.

That was the eyeball given to him by "Tador" from Rize, and he had been nourishing it with the Tree of Life.

It comes with the ability of telepathy.

"Hey~ Tador! Tador, can you hear me?" Lu Yuan grinned and called out excitedly.

About half an hour later, the other party finally responded extremely slowly, along with some incomprehensible and strange syllables.

Lu Yuan slapped his head and realized that the time ratio between the safe zone and Pangu Continent was different, and communication became difficult again.

So he drew out the syllables: "We—have—arrived—at—our—destination!"

It can be considered as a report of safety.

After a long while, Tadaud's slow response came through telepathy: "Four!"

What four? "Wake up~!"

Lu Yuan pondered for a while before he suddenly realized.

Four comrades who had fought side by side woke up from their comas. (Comrades who fought against the [monsters].) Yes, he had been gone for three years, and he had been in the safe zone for... a full 10 days.

Four more comrades woke up, and he was still very happy and blessed them sincerely.

The other party added: "Cooperation... solidity... carving... writing!"

This sentence may mean that humans and the Rize people have strengthened cooperation, and some of the simplest glyphs have been reproduced? Then he said: "Difficult!"

When talking about this topic, Lu Yuanke has a lot to say. He can not only reproduce carvings, but also create his own! For example, the most common and simple carving of "solidity" is engraved on the wall and on the shield. The shape and material have to be slightly changed to adapt to different substrates.

Humans, the people of Rize, may only follow the formula step by step.

And after an epiphany, Old Lu was able to respond to situations on his own.

This is the difference between entering the house and just looking over the threshold.

"Conch, have you learned the Glyph of Solidity? You've been caught up by humans."

The clever conch with 33.9 points of God snorted.

She is a slow learner.

Glyphs are too difficult.

"A thousand years ahead of mankind!" Lu Yuan was proud of himself.

It was obvious that he was unable to convey such a difficult language. He had originally wanted to give some instructions, but now he could only say: "I - can - do it, too!"

The other party said: "Come on... gas!"

“The desert is huge.”

“It’s a lot of garbage.”

“But it’s great!”

The two chatted idly for half the night.

It feels good to chat with my comrades, and it's very fulfilling... and this information will obviously be passed on to the human rear.

Chatting across time zones is always a bit ineffective.

Lu Yuan felt like he had returned to the 2G era, downloading damn Blu-ray movies with a network speed of just a few KB.

After the call.

He was really sleepy, so he said goodbye, lay down on the blanket and closed his eyes.

I had a very deep sleep after a long time.

…

Tick, tick.

Cold water drops dripped from the ceiling onto Lu Yuan's face.

The night is deep and dark, and it seems like the darkness before dawn.

Lu Yuan shook his head, still feeling like he was still sleepy and groggy.

He muttered something and moved the blanket.

The people of Dadong Country always have a special obsession. No matter how high the temperature is or how strong they are, they always have to find something to cover their stomachs.

The blanket seemed a little small.

In the spacious room, there was only him and the brown carpet.

There was a faint moonlight coming from outside the window, with a hint of dull red.

Outside the door.

A figure stood there.

In the moonlight, the black shadow appeared somewhat slanted and long.

"Who?" Lu Yuan asked vigilantly.

There was silence all around, and the shadows kept getting longer.

Almost fell on him.

Just when Lu Yuan was about to get up, he heard another pleasant bell sound.

"Ding-ling, ding-ling!"

This seems to be the most moving sound in the world. Just by hearing it, even the soul feels clear.

That figure turned out to be a beautiful girl.

She came bounding in from the door.

[Sir, sir, why are you still sleeping here! ]

[Don't you know that the Ascension Ceremony is about to begin? ]

This girl is really pretty.

She has an oval face, delicate and beautiful features, fair skin, and a round face that looks quite sweet. She is wearing a green silk dress, which has a unique exotic style.
