Chapter 6: Snacks
Cang Hai weighed the little mermaid on his body, and after confirming that the other party was holding on tightly, he ran and told Xiao Yu about his next plan: "Let's go along the coast first, the air currents above the coast exchange frequently, it is very likely to breed Out of space cracks."
Xiao Yu listened carefully, and suddenly remembered his time travel, is there a possibility that he also strayed into a crack in space.
No, it should be called a space-time rift. He crossed time and space without realizing it, and broke into this dangerous planet.
Fortunately, he is still alive and has met a companion who is willing to accompany him to survive together.
"Do you think there will be space cracks in the deep sea?" Xiao Yu raised this point, giving Cang Hai another way of thinking.
Cang Hai gave Xiao Yu an affirmative answer: "The deep sea water pressure is huge, and the possibility of creating space cracks due to excessive water pressure cannot be ruled out. I'm afraid I can't verify whether there are any."
Xiao Yu immediately understood the meaning of Cang Hai. After all, Cang Hai is a human being and cannot stay in the sea like him.
He sighed in disappointment: "It's my imagination."
Cang Hai could hear the loneliness in the little mermaid's tone, and he was not good at comforting, and he began to recall how his subordinates comforted the children at home.
"Here." Cang Hai's voice attracted Xiao Yu's attention.
He looked at the object held by Cang Hai's fingertips, it was round and the surface was gaudy rainbow colors.
Xiao Yu took the small ball without knowing why: "What is this?"
Cang Hai: "Jelly beans."
Of course he knew it was jelly beans, but he just couldn't figure out why Cang Hai suddenly gave him this.
Cang Hai didn't hear the sound of Xiao Yu's chewing for a long time, thinking that he didn't like candy, the gap between his eyebrows became deeper and deeper: "There are no other snacks, let's make do with it."
He always carries jelly beans with him, because this kind of thing that emits sweetness at any time is the favorite of many strange beasts. It can attract these strange beasts and help him complete the hunt.
It turned out to be a snack for him.
Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing, it was the elder brother's wish anyway, of course he would not be ignorant, and opened his mouth to put the jelly beans into his mouth.
The sweet taste filled his mouth, Xiao Yu smacked the sweetness in his mouth, and felt that being fed as a child was not bad for the first time.
For the next part of the journey, Xiao Yu devoted himself to showing Cang Hai the way, and luckily they did not encounter any strange beasts again.
At this moment, Cang Hai stopped.
Xiao Yu looked around and found no trace of the strange beast, but he didn't dare to neglect in the slightest.
Since Cang Hai stopped, it must mean that there is danger around him, and he had to prepare in advance.
Then I heard Cang Hai whispering to him: "Come down."
Xiao Yu climbed down from Cang Hai's back obediently, guarded beside Cang Hai vigilantly, his back was as straight as a green pine: "Is there another enemy attack?"
Cang Hai shook his head and laughed: "You are too nervous, don't be afraid, even if there is an enemy attack, I can handle it."
Xiao Yu watched Cang Hai take out the cooking tools: "Is the meal ready?"
"Hmm." Cang Hai took out the previously stored hidden-winged mantis meat, and the long sword in his hand flew, and the sliced meat formed a perfect arc in the air, and fell into the pot precisely.
Xiao Yu couldn't take his eyes off it, he was really curious how Cang Hai made such a down-to-earth movement of sliced meat so gracefully, and it was under the condition that he couldn't see anything.
"There's nothing to be lazy about." Cang Hai threatened as if he knew Xiao Yu was looking at him.
Xiao Yu quickly picked up the water energy converter to fill the water, and even cleaned the knives, forks and chopsticks.
After a while, there was a burst of aroma in the pot, and the curling smoke rose up.
Xiao Yu held his chin in his hands, salivating from his mouth, staring at the pot eagerly, wishing he could reach in and stuff the meat into his mouth to satisfy his greed.
Cang Hai took a spoonful of broth to taste the heat.
As the soup entered his throat, the man's Adam's apple rolled up and down, which was indescribably sexy.
Xiao Yu stared dumbfounded, followed by swallowing his saliva.
He must be crazy, to think that Cang Hai is more intoxicating than the fragrant broth in front of him.
"It's ready to eat."
What Xiao Yu was waiting for was Cang Hai's words, and he immediately put a piece of meat into his mouth.
The sliced meat just out of the pan was very hot, Xiao Yu was so hot that he gasped, but he was not willing to spit out the meat in his mouth.
It was precisely this heat that raised the freshness of the meat slices to a higher level. Xiao Yu only felt that the meat slices were hot and his mouth felt warm, and even his body warmed up.
As the meat slices were squeezed out by the teeth and flowed into the stomach, Xiao Yu could almost feel every pore of his being opened, and the strong aroma unique to the mantis meat slices flowed to the limbs and bones with the blood, and finally merged into two words : comfortable.
Cang Hai was also very satisfied. The hidden-winged mantis was worthy of being a high-level beast. The meat was not only tender and delicious, but also contained a huge amount of energy.
These energies are dispensable to him, but to the little mermaid, they are rare supplements.
Cang Hai frowned slightly, he suddenly realized that he seemed to pay too much attention to the little mermaid.
In order to fill the stomach of the little mermaid, he wasted his precious self-help time on eating. If it was only him, it would not be a problem not to eat for a day.
Thinking of this, Cang Hai shook his hand holding the chopsticks, and the piece of meat almost fell off.
Fortunately, he applied force in time and put it in his mouth before the piece of meat was pinched off.
After having a full meal, Xiao Yu lay down on his back, the taste of mantis meat slices was really good, until now his mouth still lingers with the endless smell of meat.
Licking his upper and lower teeth, Xiao Yu got up and obediently took on the job of cleaning the pots and pans, and then returned the cleaned utensils to Cang Hai so that he could put them into the interspatial ring one by one.
After such a long time, Xiao Yu still feels miraculous when he sees the space ring: "What is the principle of this?"
He was just asking casually, not expecting to get an answer, but Cang Hai actually answered him: "The world we live in belongs to the three-dimensional space, and above the three-dimensional space there are four-dimensional space, five-dimensional space and other high-dimensional spaces. Human beings only Can see the picture below the three-dimensional space, those high-dimensional spaces are actually the extension of the three-dimensional space, and objects can be transferred from the low-dimensional space to the high-dimensional space through high-dimensional transmission technology.”
Xiao Yu was confused, he knew the three-dimensional space, which is commonly known as the three-dimensional.
As for the high-dimensional space that Cang Hai mentioned, it is too far away for him, and he is not a scientist, so it is understandable that he does not understand high-dimensional space.
Cang Hai continued: "The space ring is a high-dimensional space transmission medium. Its interior is extended out of the high-dimensional space. Putting real objects into it is to complete the transmission from the three-dimensional to the high-dimensional. Put the objects from Taking it out of the space ring means that the high-dimensional to three-dimensional transport has been completed. Do you understand?"
Xiao Yu shook his head dully: "I don't understand."
Cang Hai also knew that this knowledge was too difficult and obscure for the little mermaid who grew up in the desolate star, so he stopped explaining: "It's time for us to set off."
Xiao Yu climbed up Cang Hai's back sullenly, he thought that Cang Hai thought he was too stupid, so he was unwilling to continue explaining the principle of the space ring to him.
However, the knowledge of high-dimensional space is indeed obscure and difficult to understand. Even the scientific research leaders of his era dare not say that they have thoroughly studied high-dimensional space.
"Want to hear it?" Cang Hai asked suddenly, making Xiao Yu dumbfounded.
It took him a while to understand Cang Hai's meaning, and immediately nodded his head like garlic: "I think!"
So while Cang Hai was on his way, he briefly explained the knowledge of high-dimensional space to Xiao Yu. Of course, Cang Hai has never explained theoretical knowledge, so don't expect him to be able to explain it in detail.
Although Cang Hai is not a qualified teacher, fortunately Xiao Yu is a motivated student.
When encountering something he doesn't understand, he will take the initiative to bring it up so that Cang Hai can explain it to him.
If you really can't understand it, just write it down secretly and save it for later.
Between questions and answers, the boring journey became interesting.
"This is for you to eat."
The teaching has come to an end, no matter how strict the teacher is, he still needs to leave a little time for the students to digest it slowly.
When Xiao Yu was thinking hard, Cang Hai handed him a bunch of meat strips.
Xiao Yu was used to picking up the things Cang Hai handed him, only to find that it was meat strips when he got it, he took a bite and was immediately captured by the unique mellow aroma of the meat strips.
"Thank you, it's delicious." But he was a little surprised, "It doesn't seem to taste the same as the air-dried meat I ate in the morning."
Cang Hai nodded slightly: "It's made from the meat of the hidden-winged mantis, as long as you like it, I still have it."
The little mermaid didn't seem to like the jelly beans that he gave to the little mermaid earlier, so he thought about where to get some more snacks.
The resources of Desolate Star are limited, and everything needs to be obtained locally.
So he simply cut the meat of the hidden winged mantis into thin strips, put it in the air dryer to dry, and made the meat strips with unique flavor.
The strips are chewy and easy to store. It just so happens that Xiao Yu likes it, so he can make more in the future, and give it to the little mermaid as a snack on the road.
Xiao Yu never thought that Cang Hai would prepare snacks specially for him, the taste of meat strips is of course much better than the sweet colorful jelly beans, he did not hesitate to praise Cang Hai.
Cang Hai didn't answer, the corners of his mouth raised up almost imperceptibly, obviously enjoying Xiao Yu's compliment.
The sky was getting dark, and after a day's driving, even though he was as strong as Cang Hai, he felt a little tired.
He found a safe place to put Xiao Yu down and had a simple dinner.
Xiao Yu was lying on Cang Hai's bed, looking up at the starry sky.
The night sky of Huangxing is different from that on the earth. From his perspective, he can see a bright Milky Way running across the sky. Bright stars flicker around the Milky Way. From time to time, trailing meteors will pass by and crash into the vast Milky Way and disappear. trace.
I went to bed too early yesterday and missed the beautiful night view, so I can enjoy it tonight.
Cang Hai could tell that the little mermaid was still awake: "Why don't you sleep? There is still a long way to go tomorrow."
Xiao Yuxin said that Cang Hai was carrying him anyway, he only had to guide the way along the way, and he didn't feel tired at all.
On the face, he was very honest: "I'm looking at the stars."
Knowing that Cang Hai couldn't see it, he described what he saw to Cang Hai as much as possible.
Cang Hai didn't interrupt, and didn't know how much he listened to.
Xiao Yu wasn't quite used to this kind of unilateral output, so he closed his mouth as he spoke, thinking that Cang Hai didn't like to hear it.
Unexpectedly, Cang Hai suddenly said to him: "The Milky Way you see is the meteorite belt outside the barren star. As for the meteor, it is just a meteorite that crashed into the meteorite belt."
Xiao Yu: "..."
"However," Cang Hai changed the subject, "the possibility of a foreign meteorite colliding with the meteorite belt is one in a billion. We can witness such a small possibility, which is a miracle in itself. No matter how you calculate it, get out of here alive It's much more likely than that."
Listening to this, how come it seems to be comforting him?
Before closing his eyes, Xiao Yu could not figure this out.
