Second, no fine clothes, just the rags she was wearing.
Third, no gourmet food, just the instant noodles, puffed rice, and biscuits in Xi Ben’s hands.
Worst of all… there was no water; she’d either be bored to death eating instant noodles or dried to death eating biscuits, or parched eating puffed rice.
With the harsh living conditions, plus the uncertainty of her brother’s life or death…
She was on the brink of collapse.
“Hey, are you okay?” Xi Ben patted her pale face, raising his eyebrows. “Don’t think too much. Since we’ve ended up here, just accept it.”
“Accepting it… just thinking about it makes me feel nauseous.” She said faintly.
With his arm around her shoulder, Xi Ben pointed forward. “We should look to the future, towards the bright days ahead.”
“The future…” She watched his hand move, her gaze distant.
“Yes, tomorrow is waiting for us! Maybe there’ll be another earthquake…” She suddenly widened her eyes, her small hands incessantly patting his, her little mouth continuously whispering, “Yi… Yi Yang…”
“Don’t interrupt me, I haven’t finished speaking!” Suo Ben impatiently patted her head. “Then maybe because of this earthquake, we’ll end up back at the mountain where you live, so why… why do you keep patting me?”
She stretched out her trembling finger, pointing at the spot where he had just indicated. “Yi Yang… Yi Yang…”
Following her direction, Suo Ben saw a… monster?
Yes, a monster.
Yi Yang country is to the west of the north of the Suo, its people all have long beards, black bodies with hair, are bat-like, laugh when they see humans; they are right-handed.
To Suo Ben, the monster in front of him indeed looked somewhat human-like. He stared blankly at the “human-like” figure that was swaying and walking in the distance.
“Look! Still looking? Run away now!” Xu Xian’en didn’t have such patience, knowing well what it was and what it could do.
She could now confirm that she had truly fallen into the world described in the legends of mountains and seas! Initially, upon seeing Da Yun Mountain, she had a slight doubt, but now, with this creature’s appearance, it just proved that her guess was not wrong!
How *** lucky, the odds of winning a lottery are not even this high.
