Chapter 38: The Change of Xijiang

1353 Words
Arriving at Xijiang Park, it seems that the sun here has become brighter. The surroundings are filled with colorful clouds, white mist is steaming, and it is peaceful. Sand gulls fly and swim. At the door, the two princes of the sea were still standing here, guarding this place like guards. When Chen Ye came over, the golden vertical pupils suddenly swept up and down like lasers. For a moment, they confirmed Chen Ye's identity and opened the way. "This copper coin is still cost-effective, at least you don't have to worry about water for a week." Chen Ye said to himself in his heart, and returned the same salute, and then followed the cobblestone path all the way to the river. Compared to yesterday...... On the contrary, the traffic in the park has been significantly improved. Several figures carried buckets, rolled up their trouser legs, ran barefoot to the river, and excitedly poured river water into their mouths. Among them, there are also some people who swim naked in the river, sometimes making refreshing cheers. Like the victims who survived the catastrophe on a deserted island, they finally got a safe place to get water, freely bathe, wash away the mud from their bodies, wash away their physical and mental fatigue and the bumpy experience. "This looks like a player!" Chen Ye muttered in his heart, who would run to the river to take a bath? Most of them are still retaining the habit of taking a bath every day before the arrival of "Strange Age", and they can't stand the sour smell of sweat, and they don't wash for a day, and they feel uncomfortable. At this moment, I got a safe water source and resource, as if I had come to heaven. There were dozens of people by the river, some fetching water by the river, and some swimming in the river. There was also a large group of young people, both men and women, sitting by the river soaking their feet or playing in the water. At a glance, several young and beautiful girls sat side by side, laughing and laughing, their slender white thighs swaying on the water. Chen Ye remembers that before he came, he seemed to be still on the forum of the bloody mobile phone and saw a player specially organizing a party by the river. As for what kind of party it is...... Then it is unknown. Glancing at it with the eyes of luck, Chen Ye found that the aura of luck on the heads of this group of players by the river was mostly white and gray, and some of them were black, even red and black intertwined. There are basically no purple and glass players. Watching them play wildly by the river, as if they have forgotten themselves and are enjoying themselves in fleeting pleasures...... Chen Ye shook his head, feeling that the reason why they showed these aura of luck was not without reason. Not only does character determine fate, but the brain also determines fate. He didn't like to join in the fun, seeing that the river was too noisy at the moment, and then went downstream along the trail shrouded in a faint gray mist halo. In the distance, several young men saw that Chen Ye's speed was extremely fast, and they took four steps, and immediately called out to several partners around them: "Look, that person is so fast!" "He is obviously on an ordinary journey, why does he seem to be running as fast as he is?" "Looking at his direction, it should be downstream......" "This is definitely not a player, but a native trick in "Strange Era", let's stay away, don't provoke this kind of evil star!" "How do you know that he is not a player, so you conclude that he is a native trick?" "If you are an ordinary player, you come to the Xijiang River to fetch water, where is there to go downstream?" "I just went downstream to take a look, the picture is simply terrifying, it's like hell, let's try to stay in Xijiang Park in the future!" "yes...... There is water and beautiful women, and it feels like coming home. And according to the information of the forum boss, Hai Wangzi is an orderly and neutral existence, and he will not encounter other strange attacks here, and he is very safe. ” "It is said that Hai Princezi is also recruiting new labor recently, and the reward is five copper coins a week." "Although the reward is not very high, it should be no problem to survive here." "Yes, if you can get this job, then you can finally settle down in the future." It didn't take long for this group of people to leave Chen Ye behind and continue to sink into the happiness of the river. When they discussed the landing of their work, they all showed expectant eyes and imagined a beautiful and peaceful future. Since the appearance of the bloody countdown incident, two schools of thought have emerged in Linjiang City. One is desperate pessimism, they live in the pain of the end all day long, feeling that there is no hope for the future, and no matter what they do in life, it is futile; The other is the optimism of living in the moment, they seize every happiness in the moment, don't think much about the rest, as long as they do what makes them happy, then do it without scruples. After appearing for a long time, the blood countdown has become a new trend and slogan, which has aroused the support of a large number of young people. Negative emotions such as pessimism, thinking, and criticism were even boycotted by the government for a while, so as to avoid intensifying the pessimism of the group and having a negative impact on society when the end came. On the Weird Forum, even if a random stranger posts a proposal to hold a riverside party, it will get the support of many players. The success rate of offline meetings is extremely high. These groups all feel that the more difficult the environment, the more they must keep themselves happy...... Even after the advent of "Strange Age", this is the case. ………… Along the path filled with gray mist, all the way to the lower reaches of the Xijiang River. In front of me, the majestic black mist gradually obscured the entire sky, and the magnificent embankment stood like a mountain directly in front of the view. The prince of the sea, who came and went, was sweating profusely, constantly carrying huge stones like busy worker bees to the embankment for construction. It's just that...... Chen Ye found that there seemed to be more Hai Princezi involved in this project. "Last time I came here, I didn't see so many Hai Prince Si." Chen Ye walked to the vicinity of the embankment and found that in addition to Hai Princezi, there were also several workers who looked no different from normal humans, also moving stones. Of course, their physique is far worse than that of Hai Prince Si, but they are stronger than ordinary people. It can be seen from their demeanor that these workers who look normal should be players. When Chen Ye was surfing on his mobile phone, he also focused on the content of Xijiang, and probably learned about Hai Zizi's recent recruitment of employees. He tapped his eyebrows lightly, opened the pupil of luck to check, and his brows couldn't help but furrow deeply. Compared with the young people who were partying in Xijiang Park, the black mist shrouded in the heads of the heirs of the sea here was even thicker, as if a dark cloud was about to collapse from mid-air! Among them, nearly one-third of the Hai Prince's heirs, in the center of the black mist, a bloody light filled out! Take a closer look...... The bloody light was faintly visible, as if it formed a strange eye, lurking in the center of the undercurrent, quietly watching everyone!
