"It's such a pity. I've never seen anything like this before. Is there really nothing we can do about it?" Kraft touched the shriveled money bag, feeling a little unwillingly.
The Wood family was not financially strapped, but it was not easy to get pocket money from his grandfather. Young Kraft developed the awareness of making a profit early on.
"Then you go ahead and I'll watch how you chop it down." Ryan crossed his arms and looked at the pillar helplessly, "There was a king who drew a sword from the stone and established our Kingdom of North.
Today, Kraft wields his sword to break rocks. If you become rich in the future, don’t forget your dear cousin.”
"Thank you. If I can really cut it off, I can consider making you the next Baron Wood." Craft gave up the unrealistic idea of taking the pillar back and turned around to leave. Ryan quickly followed him.
He patted his shoulder from behind.
"We can't take it away, and neither can others. Even if we leave it here, it doesn't matter. We can let them dig it slowly first, and then invite Grandpa and Teacher Anderson to come together next year to see the whole picture."
…………
According to the usual weather patterns in the Kingdom of North, the heavy snow will not last long. After staying indoors for a while, the snowflakes outside the window have shrunk to the shape of tiny salt grains, the wind is very light, and the low mountains in the distance are undulating.
So with a little taste of Jiangnan hills, if you hold a cup of hot tea now, you will have the artistic conception of enjoying the snow.
Ryan was so bored that he made a mini snowman out of the snow on the windowsill, and now he was trying to insert the broken ice skates into it as hands.
"I must bring backgammon next time I come to a place like this. I don't know how they survive the winter at home." Ryan finished his snowman. The snow on the windowsill had been used up, and he didn't go out to roll for the time being.
The idea of a big snowman.
Including today, they have been stranded here for four days. Regardless of whether they can take their things back, it is good news to leave this boring place.
"Yes, yes." Kraft responded unconsciously. This part of his soul was completely unable to adapt to this life without mobile phones. Once he was free, he would seem at a loss. "We will set off tomorrow morning. Remember to wake up early.
I."
"I really hope something can happen, no matter what it is, this is too boring." Ryan hit him, pushed down the crooked snowman, got up and went back to his room.
But Kraft was still staring out the window, seemingly motionless, but actually missing his mobile phone. The native part of his soul did not have any advantage in fighting boredom, but instead became a little restless because he learned about the prosperity and excitement of another world.
.On the other hand, as a visitor from another world, while missing my mobile phone, I also enjoy the tranquility and natural scenery now.
He watched as the originally dim sky gradually turned dark, and the spruce forest at the other end of the wheat field changed from a group of large Christmas trees into a continuous black shadow, extending all the way to the cascading low mountains in the distance.
This reminded Kraft of the days he spent at his grandmother's house when he was a child, mostly during the Chinese New Year. The fields covered with thin snow spread from the village to the hills in the distance. The difference was that at that time, you could often see the lights in the distance.
, there are also sporadic fireworks blooming in places far or near.
Although he couldn't see it, he knew that farther away were the huge dams and waterworks in the mountains. The water supply for places within sight and out of reach was sucked up by this huge thing.
The mighty power driven by thunder and steel runs day and night, dispelling the confusion and fear of facing the majestic world from ancient times to the present. When you turn on the faucet, you can feel the power of mankind everywhere from the distant mountains to before your eyes.
And here, in this place where time seems to have gone back hundreds of thousands of years, small villages and few wheat fields around them are all areas controlled by humans. In less than ten minutes, you can step from human territory to pure
Primitive place.
It was the domain of spruce trees and all kinds of unknown things, and where the cold mists wandered, wolves and other unknown beasts of fur and scales prowled, watching them in the vast eternal darkness that surrounded man's little creation.
, no different than surveying a herd of deer.
Modern people often like to laugh at the superstition and foolishness of the ancients, but they don't know how thrilling the power of nature and the unknown can be in such darkness. Even the evil ghosts in plasma horror movies are insignificant in such a sense of oppression.
From stories of wolves attacking humans to rumors of a remote village disappearing overnight, the more chilling content is often discovered by travelers passing by long after the incident, and the victims have long since become indistinguishable.
Matter was swallowed up by this dark and barbaric world - and more unknown stories were swallowed together with the discoverers, continuing to disguise themselves with the blank spaces on the map.
At this time, mankind's most advanced weapon, the sword on his waist, was as ridiculous and powerless as a toothpick. Even in the most arrogant legends, no mortal dared to challenge the mountains.
Kraft, that part of the other world, once felt that the land under his feet was so small that in just a few hundred years, humans felt crowded, and all the magnificent or weird legends could not hide under the miracle of science and technology.
Only in the starry sky are there still puzzles waiting to be developed.
But now, he is a little unsure. Something unexplainable happened to him. Two unrelated souls - if they are souls, they can be mixed together. No matter what
A phenomenon that cannot be explained here or here will only be regarded as the ravings of a madman.
Does this mean that this world actually secretly hides another side of it? That is a more magnificent and chaotic realm, a part that human beings are proud of and have not yet touched by technology.
It was this kind of mystery that opened a corner in front of Kraft. This corner alone completely changed his life in an unimaginable way and cast sharp doubts on the worldview he had established in his short life.
It is like a small dark cloud that once floated over the heads of the physics community in the 20th century, like a flaw in the perfect celestial sphere, shattering everything that was unbreakable in the past. A new set of theories is needed to make up for this fatal flaw that is not safe for the whole.
.
But now he was standing in front of a crudely made wooden window, and darkness rushed in, swallowing everything in sight. His limited talents were not worth mentioning in front of such an ignorant and terrifying darkness, even if there was something beyond this world.
, professional knowledge without beginning and end, and dragon-slaying skills that are out of date here. This is undoubtedly a kind of torture.
Kraft could feel an unknown desire surging deep in his body. It might have been breeding in this corner of his soul as early as last night. It ignored a person's character and desires and spread silently until everything was silent.
When you notice one of its vines, you will understand that it exists in your body, and its huge root system goes deep into the depths of your consciousness.
In silence, Kraft stared out the window at the dark world where he could not find his sight. His hearing became more acute after losing his vision. He noticed that there seemed to be a subtle sound that broke his contemplation.
