It was approaching noon, the wind was calm and the clouds were calm.
Betty's clothes were soaked with water, and sweat dripped down her cheeks on the deck, making a large area wet. She struggled to hold her body up with both hands, and after a few seconds, her body sank again, and the cycle continued.
"Three hundred and twenty-two" the sound of gnashing teeth came out of her mouth, getting closer and closer to the target, injecting the last strength into her.
Betty's cruel training began since the day they went to sea. For more than ten days, Chen Ren has been driving the boat, sailing during the day and stopping on the sea of clouds at night. But she kept training to increase her physical fitness, but she did not
Practice any move.
"Three hundred and fifty" roared with all his might, ending the morning's training.
Hearing the muffled sound coming from the deck behind him, he knew that Betty was unwilling to move again. The speed of the brig gradually weakened until it came to a complete stop.
"After training, don't rest immediately, as this will hurt your body." He picked up Betty who was lying on the ground and urged her to start moving.
"Captain, who told you this strange knowledge? I'm going to give him a beating." Betty reluctantly complained, but she quickly got up. She believed that the captain would not harm her.
"I'm going to get something to eat, please take your time." After saying that, he turned around and entered the cabin.
It wasn't until the sweat evaporated and her heart became calm again that Betty returned to the bathroom. The tub was still steaming with steam. She picked up the blood juice specially prepared by the captain and poured the last bit into it.
The water was instantly dyed bright red. She took off her already soaked clothes and stepped into the bathtub. The coolness of the potion and the warm water vapor of the bathtub alternated back and forth on her skin. Her physical fatigue was greatly relieved, and her physical strength increased.
There has also been some recovery.
"It's so cool." That wheat-colored face was filled with relaxation and comfort. The most relaxing time of the day is now. The soreness in her muscles when she went to bed at night was simply unbearable. That was because the captain helped her relax her muscles.
The final effect.
Listening to the clanking sound of the captain cooking under the floor, her eyelids began to flutter up and down, and she fell into a deep sleep.
In the kitchen downstairs, Chen Ren is dealing with a fish at the moment. Although he caught it yesterday, it is already full of energy. The past ten days of continuous cooking have made him feel a little bored. His mind clearly remembers so many recipes from his previous life, but he cooks them.
I can't say the smell is strange, I can only say it has nothing to do with it.
"It seems that we need to find a cook, otherwise we may starve to death in the sea of clouds." He turned around and threw the cut fish bones into a casserole to make soup. The fresh fish meat was cut into thin slices and was eaten after a while.
Other meals were also carried out in an orderly manner. When they were all finished, he was sweating profusely. He opened the refrigerator and took out fresh fruits and vegetables.
You ask why there is a refrigerator? The technology in Yunhai is very strange. War technology is advanced, but life technology is extremely rare. We can only rely on shells produced by unknown islands in the alliance to fill the gaps. The ice shells in the refrigerator and the photos of hunters
Bedu is included in this list.
"It's time for Betty to eat." He put the food on the table, raised his head and called to the bathroom on the second floor.
Only a vague reply came from the bathroom.
In the afternoon, after a period of rest, the ketch started sailing again, and Betty also began to continue training.
A small gray-blue cloud beast soared in the sky. The bird's eyes scanned around to find the target. The sight locked on a medium-sized adventure ship, and it swooped down and brought up a burst of air.
A bird chirped, the briquettes' feathers exploded, and their eyes were full of vigilance.
Chen Ren raised his head and glanced at the swooping cloud beast, then stretched out his hand to comfort the briquettes.
"Don't be afraid, messenger man."
At the same time, he motioned to Betty to continue exercising and he would handle it here.
A stream of air coming down from the sky hit the deck and scattered in all directions. The messenger gull flapped its wings and landed on the deck, stirring up a breeze. Its wingspan was four meters long and it was huge. It had a delicate cloth bag on its chest, a yellow-gray bird.
The beak was gently pulled, and a letter was taken out.
Chen Ren opened the envelope with skillful hands. He looked at it carefully and shook his head at the messenger. The cloud beast rose into the sky and disappeared from the sky.
Dusk goes and morning comes, and Qiji passes by.
A strange-looking island appeared in front of us. The land of the island was far above the sea level, and it was surrounded by rocky cliffs. The middle of the island was divided into two halves by a straight gap, and could only be connected by a trestle that was more than ten kilometers long. This island was also
Hence the name.
The sailboat sailed into the gap in the middle, with towering rocks on both sides. Looking up at the sky, only a blue ribbon appeared in the sky. An inexplicable and depressing feeling had been surrounding him since he entered the canyon.
The ten-kilometer-wide seaway forms a natural port for this island. There are constant traffic of merchant ships around it and it is extremely crowded. The prosperity on the seaway is no worse than that of Red Maple.
The two followed the instructions and docked the sailboat at a pier with few boats. As soon as they got off the boat, they were jumped by the conductor's salute.
"Welcome." The conductor beat his chest with his right hand and looked serious. You can see a bit of military temperament from his movements.
And all this comes from the silver badge on Chen Ren's chest.
Nodding slightly, she pulled Betty directly towards the high cliff, where according to the guide's introduction, she could quickly enter the city.
There is a corridor leading up and down the cliff, a metal cage is parked at the foot of the cliff, and a rope made of an unknown material extends upward.
"What should I do if the cage falls?" Betty exclaimed when she saw this simple device, with worry on her face.
"Madam, don't worry, it has been running smoothly for more than a hundred years, and there won't be any danger." The conductor immediately began to explain, showing no signs of impatience throughout the process.
The three of them entered the cage. As the door closed, the car began to rise steadily. Betty held Chen Ren's arm tightly to prevent the car from falling suddenly. The conductor stood on the outermost side and introduced the gap.
"According to the stories passed down orally in our country, this cliff was cut out by someone with a knife. At that time, our king was fatuous..."
As the car rose, the conductor's introductions came to his ears from time to time. Chen Ren quickly grasped the key points. He seemed to have found the source of the extremely thin but always lingering sense of oppression.
The fuel was ignited, and a subtle halo appeared in his eyes, surrounding them.
He saw it, saw the power of the sword that split the island, and the domineering power of an ant under the sword.
The sun was obscured by dark clouds, silver snakes danced wildly, and the torrential rain could not stop the roar of thunder from ringing in the sky.
A flash of light suddenly appeared in the sea of clouds and soared into the sky. The sky lost its color, and the thunder lost its sound. Only the sword energy became the only one in this world. The sword energy fully unfolded in the air, and its lower end went straight into the top of the sea of clouds and cut through the dark clouds to crush them.
The pressing posture crossed the island and disappeared into the distance.
A trajectory was cut out of the sea of clouds, and until the sword light disappeared, the sea water on both sides hit the cut gap, and the waves rolled. In the middle of the island, exposed rocks on both sides of the gap appeared, and there was no convex plane like
Mirror. The heavy rain was cut down and gradually dissipated.
When his vision regained, Chen Ren felt a stinging pain in the corners of his eyes, and two streaks of blood snaked down.
