Qi Tian looked outside the frosted glass in the bathroom and could hear Carlos turning over and over on the bed through the sound of water.
After wetting her hair and applying shampoo, Qi Tian raised her head and combed her hair into a back style with her fingers. Qi Tian's short hair made her accustomed to washing her hair like this.
When she raised her head, the water from the nozzle left her forehead and flowed down the back of her head. Her face was still dry and she could open her eyes.
Qi Tian looked at the headlights above his head, stared for a while and then silently spoke, saying: So you went back a long time ago...
…
Hua Shuo knelt down and stared blankly ahead and at her feet, then looked back at Hua Ling who was looking into the distance: "This was the coastline before, right?"
Hua Ling yawned and wondered: "Look what I'm doing, I don't have a world map on my face."
Hua Ling and Hua Shuo stood on the former coastline of North America. Hua Shuo, as a water demon, knew the coastline quite well. But after so long, the coastline had been pushed far into the deep sea. He didn't expect it at all.
Hua Ling stood in the yellow sand with his arms folded, and there was a green cactus at his feet. He turned his head and looked at Hua Shuo beside him, and smiled: "People in the past always said they were worried about global warming and the glaciers melting on the sea level.
Move it, pour it now, and bake it directly."
Hua Shuo waved his hand and a drop of water appeared on his palm: "The air humidity is okay. Logically speaking, this place shouldn't be a desert."
"Where are we now?"
"North America should be where Canada and the United States border, with the Pacific Ocean in front."
"Then should we look west to see where the sea is, or should we look east to see if there are any cities?"
"Zero's choice?"
"...I choose to see the sea."
Hua Shuo and Hua Ling looked westward at the same time. Where the Pacific Ocean used to be, there was no water source in sight. They could only vaguely see the yellow sand under their feet and the desert plants in front of them.
"I don't know how long it will take to walk... Is there any transportation?" Hua Shuo looked around blankly.
While Hua Shuo was looking left and right, he was suddenly picked up by Hua Ling from the side with both hands. Hua Ling stretched out his wings from behind and they flew up.
"Hey, wait, wait! Ling'er, aren't you tired from doing this!"
"It's okay, you're quite light."
Hua Ling flew very high. He wanted to see the water in front of him in the sky, but it wasn't until they flew for half an hour that they saw the Pacific Ocean, which was supposed to be huge.
Where the water source has dried up, there are many corpses of marine life, and there are various terrains exposed because there is no water source to cover up.
At present, seawater coverage is not much, maybe only about 40%.
Hua Ling gradually flew lower until the soles of her feet were less than one meter away from the sea. Hua Shuo looked around in Hua Ling's arms in surprise: "This is the first time I have seen the sea like this. When I was still a human, I didn't dare to think about this situation.
"
"It's good. I have never been to the sea when I was a human being." Hua Ling looked at the water below her feet that was still terrifyingly black due to the depth of the water, and her heart suddenly felt as if she had been stabbed by a thorn.
Hua Shuo noticed that Hua Ling was frowning and reached out to touch Hua Ling's eyebrows: "Ling'er looks unhappy. Is he thinking about drowning when he was a child?"
"How could it be? How long ago it happened, and now I..."
"It's not like I won't be afraid if I can't die."
"..."
"My aunt told my mother that you don't like bathing since you drowned. Is that the case?"
"..."
Hua Ling didn't speak, and looked at Hua Shuo indifferently, and suddenly let go of her arms. Hua Shuo fell vertically into the sea with a surprised expression, and Hua Ling turned into a crow and flew away.
After Hua Shuo fell into the water, she took to the water like a fish, turning into a killer whale and leaning out of the water to look at Hua Ling in the sky.
There was once a woman who told Hua Ling that he had many things on his mind and that he could not be beaten, scolded or talked about.
Hua Shuo complained: "I don't need to say that, my mouth is really..."
Seeing that Hua Ling had no intention of coming back, Hua Shuo sighed and entered the water. Suddenly, she heard a cry dozens of meters below the sea level, which seemed to be the sound of a dolphin.
Hua Shuo continued to swim forward, and heard the cry again, but the tone became serious, and then he said: "That monster over there!"
Hua Shuo was stunned, was she calling herself?
Suddenly, Hua Shuo's side was hit by a rushing figure. Both Hua Shuo and it were startled. When the two monsters looked at each other, they seemed to be saying: Who are you?
Hua Shuo turned into half human and half fish in the water. After getting close to the dolphins, she asked: "Now...are most animals monsters?"
The dolphin also turned into half human and half fish: "Only monsters have the courage to come near the sea level at this time. Are you new here? You don't even know this."
"I have been in heaven before, and I came down to earth only after my spiritual energy recovered. I really don't know much about these things." Hua Shuo explained calmly.
The dolphin was surprised when he heard the word "heaven": "You came down from the sky? You are a god! How old are you?"
"Maybe... more than three hundred?"
"That's amazing. Our eldest is only over a hundred years old! Come with me, they will be surprised to see you."
The dolphin excitedly took Hua Shuo and wanted to go to the deep sea without saying a few words. After Hua Shuo broke away from his hand, she wondered: "You and I don't even know each other's names, so you believe me so much?"
The dolphin began to introduce himself: "My name is Alan, Alan Eli, what about you?"
"Hua Shuo, my surname is Hua Shuo."
"Hua Shuo? What a strange name. Is it the same name you had three hundred years ago?"
"That's right..." Although to be precise it was tens of thousands of years ago.
Yalan swam in front, Hua Shuo followed behind, and they swam all the way to the deep sea.
The light on the sea cannot penetrate into the water, and it becomes darker as it goes deeper. Suddenly, Hua Shuo sees a bright light in front of it. The light illuminates its surroundings. There, Hua Shuo sees an underwater city with many nearby cities.
Rock reefs and submarine volcanoes.
Looking along the way, Yalan's words that "only monsters will be close to the sea level at this time" were confirmed, because no animals were seen dozens of meters below the sea level, and it was so clean that it seemed a bit intrusive.
Until we entered the deep sea, the fish suddenly became more numerous. The closer we got to the bottom of the sea, the more fish there were. Groups of marine creatures were swaying their tails in the sea.
"Why are there no animals near sea level? What happened?"
"The elders said that it happened more than 20 years ago. I actually don't know much about it. You can ask the elders after you enter the city."
"That's it. By the way, how old are you?"
"Exactly twenty."
"Quite young."
After the two demons swam into the city, some mermaids who were wandering around saw Yalan. They swam over happily and asked him what he had been doing just now.
"I went to the sea level to get some fresh air, and I found a new guy. He's amazing." Yalan took Hua Shuo's wrist and introduced them to them, "His name is Hua Shuo, and he's over three hundred years old."
Hua Shuo greeted them awkwardly.
"More than three hundred years old? I'll go..."
"Wait a minute, don't talk about this now, Alan, Elder Eli is looking for you, you go quickly."
Alan was puzzled: "Looking for me? What's wrong? Did something happen?" This chapter has been completed!
