293. Double Room

The aboriginal people of Pohnpei Island are Micronesians. Like other aboriginal people on many Pacific islands, these people have dark brown skin, curly hair, and tall and straight bodies. Their ancestors lived for four thousand years.

In the past, people from Southeast Asia and other places immigrated to these islands, forming a unique cultural atmosphere.

In a restaurant on the island, Lu Jian was enjoying local specialty tuna dishes.

Tuna itself is plump and can be eaten raw, or it can be grilled or boiled to make soup. The way of eating on the island is relatively primitive, which is to grill it and eat it with bay leaves. If you are in doubt, grill it. Just grill it.

That's it.

However, even after being grilled, the fatty tuna meat still had a much higher oil content than ordinary fish. Lu Jian stopped after eating two large pieces because it was too greasy.

"Woof!"

At his feet, the corgi was circling around Lu Jian. Originally, pets were not allowed into the restaurant, but Lu Jian gave too many and there were no other customers in the store, so the boss acquiesced in allowing the dog to enter.

in the store.

Lu Jian put a piece of tuna belly on a dinner plate and put it on the ground.

The Corgi came to the dinner plate with its short tail wagging, looked at the food on the plate, and then at Lu Jian.

"Eat."

Lu Jian spoke.

At this time, Corgi finally lowered his head and started to devour the food.

"Quite well-behaved."

Feng Yu commented like this.

The way she eats tuna is very elegant. Although Lu Jian knows that it is too outrageous to apply such adjectives to Feng Yu, Feng Yu's eating movements and posture can only be described as elegant.

Maybe when Lu Tan saw how Feng Yu disposed of the pieces of meat on the plane, he would also associate it with elegance.

"The hound can take us through time, does that mean it can take us directly back to a time when the accident on the Stars had not happened?"

Lu Tan looked at Corgi enjoying his meal and had a sudden thought.

"Hounds are inherently sensitive to those who travel through time. It's a beautiful thought to be a monster that hunts these people. You still want it to take you through time."

Feng Yu put down his knife and fork.

"If you want to travel through time, besides using the power of silence, there is another way, but trust me, you won't want to try it."

"What can I do?"

Lu Tan was curious.

"In a foreign land that you don't know about, there is a race that makes a living by stealing other people's time. Once caught by those creatures, your time will be stolen for as short as a few seconds or as long as

One to three years, at the same time, you will be transported to a random time in the past, this is how to travel through time."

Feng Yu explained seriously.

"The knowledge doesn't seem to cause pollution?"

Lu Tan listened to Feng Yu's story, but he didn't feel any changes in himself.

"The pollution level of this knowledge is slightly lower than the pollution you have endured. You can face the Pleiades star cluster and still survive. This level of knowledge can no longer corrode you."

Feng Yu replied.

"Then is there any similar knowledge? I have a lot of time, so I can listen slowly."

Lu Tan said immediately.

Anyway, I won't be polluted by this, and if I don't listen, I won't listen.

"..."

Feng Yu was speechless.

Lu Jian's behavior of gathering wool wherever he goes is really rare.

"Let's not mention these things. If we can have a hunting dog, our next actions will be much easier."

Feng Yu decided to ignore Lu Tan's taking advantage.

"By the way, what are we going to do next?"

Lu Tiao only knew that he wanted to come to Pohnpei Island, but the Stars had sunk long ago, and all the tourists and crew members had left here. Do they still need to dive underwater to explore the wreckage of the Stars?

He himself has the ability to breathe underwater and can dive for as long as he wants, but is it necessary to come here to confirm this kind of thing?

And what Feng Yu said at the beginning was that he wanted to show Lu Tan the deeper secrets of the foreign land. What was this?

"Two nights later, there should be some changes on this island."

Feng Yu replied.

Flights run every three days. If you want to arrive at Pohnpei Island on time in the evening two days later, it is indeed the closest.

Lu Tan and Feng Yu had lunch and got a double room in the only hotel on the island.

"So, why a double bed room?"

Lu Tan walked into the room and looked at Feng Yu with some confusion, feeling that something was wrong with the way the hotel owner looked at him just now.

"In order to deal with possible problems, it is best for the two of us to work together, one person in one room. If we encounter danger at night, we will not be able to take care of it."

Feng Yu replied, putting down his luggage at the same time.

"If you feel shy, you can tell me in advance and I will avoid it."

"?"

Lu Tan felt that this sentence should be spoken by himself.

The two rested for a while in the hotel and went out to look for food in the evening. After dinner, it was completely dark. Stars that could not be seen in big cities were now dotted on the dark sky. Lu Tiao looked around and found nothing familiar.

Stars, he looked towards the center of the island.

There, thousands of artificial islands constitute the huge ruins of Nanmadol. The huge and heavy masonry now reveals a dark green color under the starlight. According to science, it is because these stones contain fluorite.

Ingredients, the king in the past wanted to create a netherworld kingdom for himself, so he used such a stone.

However, such ruins look particularly strange at night.

Those buildings that were either collapsed or damaged emitted a dim light in the forest, like cities of the dead. In fact, most of these remaining buildings were mausoleums, where the corpses of the once arrogant kings were stored after their death.

It's just that during the war, this was the front line of the Pacific battlefield. The flames of war swept through the entire island after the plunderers. Even the tombs of the once supreme power were inevitably destroyed.

Lu Tran and Feng Yu spent the next two days inspecting the ruins on Pohnpei Island. These ruins did not have the power of the curse as in the legend. Although it is still unclear how these buildings were built,

Compared with the wonders carved by the might of foreign lands, this kind of construction that can only be completed by relying on the accumulation of human time can only be regarded as ordinary.

Of course, although the two of them slept in the same room, nothing happened that was often popular in movies.

Rather, Lu Tan was very suspicious. If he was really unlucky enough to see Feng Yu's welfare scene, I'm afraid it would be a scene full of eyeballs, tentacles, and indescribable horror.

He didn't know whether it was a benefit or not, but it was really a blessing.

As for the hound, Lu Jian named it "Laika" to commemorate the puppy who had made important contributions to mankind. It was very well-behaved and didn't need to be walked every day, nor did it seem to need to poop.

But every night, it would turn into black mist for a period of time and disappear, only to come back more than half an hour later, looking like it was full of food and wine.

He didn't know what he had eaten, but he hoped it wouldn't get upset.

Two days later, to Lu Tiao's surprise, the originally calm and sunny Pohnpei Island suddenly turned gloomy.

When I came to the front desk, the news was playing on the TV with signal interference.

The typhoon is coming.
