C165 (1/2)
At this moment, the old Daoist and An Gui beside me also jolted and woke up.
I looked at the old Daoist and said, ”I just had a dream …”
The old Daoist then said, ”What in the world are we dreaming about? We've returned from that side. Sigh, we've finally escaped this calamity …”
I wiped off the cold sweat on my forehead and chuckled dryly. I thought that it was just a dream …
In that case, we really almost roasted the suckling pig just now.
At this time, An Gui began to laugh out loud. ”In my opinion, if we don't die from a great disaster, we will definitely have a blessing after all!” If we go out for a walk, maybe we'll meet some lucky people, haha! ”
I shot a glance at An Gui and said, ”Aren't you afraid that I'll tell this to Huang Yuting? Besides, it's raining right now, so I don't want to be a drowned chicken. ”
At this time, An Gui chuckled a few times and said, ”I was just joking around to liven up the atmosphere. Don't take it seriously. You mustn't tell this to Yuting. Otherwise, we won't even have friends.”
At this moment, the rain outside the small house suddenly stopped. A ray of yellow sunlight shone down from the sky.
The people enjoying the view all closed their umbrellas, enjoying the warmth after the cold rain.
The old Daoist then said, ”Since the rain has stopped, let's go for a walk.”
Thus, the three of us walked out of the small room and continued to wander around the Linden Garden.
After the rain, the air was very fresh, and the people who took shelter from the rain came out, and the garden became very crowded again. For a moment the scene became a marketplace again, and the three of us were swept away in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, someone from the crowd suddenly shouted, ”Look, the rainbow in the sky!”
Everyone immediately looked up at the sky. I looked up and indeed, there was a rainbow hanging under the white clouds in the east. The rainbow looked exceptionally beautiful under the white clouds.
Many people took out their cameras to take pictures, while those without cameras took out their phones. As a result, the scene changed from a viewing to a photo shoot. The rainbow also enjoyed a star-like treatment, just lacking the contrast of a flash.
We fled from the crowd and came to a small shop, where we each bought a bottle of green tea to quench our thirst.
All three of us had green tea in our hands and were walking along the road, ready to go somewhere else.
Along the way, they also met many classmates. However, because they weren't too familiar with each other, they all greeted each other courteously, so they didn't say much.
The class monitor first sent a message to them. The message was that everyone was free to move about. They would gather at five in the afternoon.
I looked at the time on my cell phone. It was 3.11 in the afternoon, still some time away from the rendezvous.
So the three of us wandered around, going through all the attractions, paddling in the pond, and picking a few lotus leaves.
Strangely, since it was winter, the lotus leaves should have already withered. However, in this pond, there were quite a few tender green lotus leaves that had just sprouted out.
Actually, I already thought it was strange. In this winter, the willow trees in the garden are still green and full of vitality.
However, thinking about it, the weather in the south was warmer, coupled with the recent warming of the climate, the current winter would be no different from summer as long as there was a sun. It was not impossible for the plants to grow better.
An Gui and I broke out in a cold sweat from the narrow escape to our deaths. We were currently playing with our lives on the line to make up for the losses we suffered earlier.
The old Taoist did not play much, he followed us instead of talking about enjoying the scenery. We did not know what he was thinking, and now that we have escaped the black crow formation and returned to the real world, we have nothing to worry about.
Just as I was about to ask the old Daoist why he is still in a state of delirium, the old Daoist suddenly said, ”That's not right!”
”What's wrong?”
”This place is not the real world …”
When I heard that, I was stunned for a moment.
However, in a flash, I burst into laughter. What kind of international joke was this, the tourists couldn't be faking it, right? Even if it's a fake, how can those classmates of ours who we met explain it? They all greeted me, so how can it be fake? Also, how can I explain the message from the class monitor that I received from my phone? The things I have on me, I can't possibly be faking it, right?
Thinking this way, I chuckled and said sarcastically, ”Old Taoist, are you crazy? Look, these tourists are all enjoying the scenery, how could it not be the real world? ”
The old Daoist then lightly said, ”It's winter right now, don't you think that the flowers and trees here are too lush? ”Willows, grass, lotus leaves, and …” At this moment, the old Daoist pointed into the distance. ”The peach tree has already blossomed.”
I looked in the direction pointed by the old Daoist and my heart immediately skipped a beat. Damn, that peach tree really blossomed! The entire peach tree was filled with blooming pink flowers.
The current scene, coupled with the drizzling rain from before, was clearly the scene of early spring!
It was only the beginning of November, and winter had just begun. How could it be spring now?!
That is to say, everything here is really fake? Moreover, this was not an ordinary fake, it could be fake and could be real! Those students who greeted me, I actually couldn't tell that they were faking anything!
It's over. This time, we really just got out of the Dragon Pool and entered the Tiger's Cave! After walking out of the black crow formation with much difficulty, he had now entered into a world more fake than the real world. It was just that the weather was a little too reversed.
An Gui and I began to panic again.
Suddenly, a man in work clothes appeared in front of them. He walked to the peach tree, bent down, and pulled it up.
The peach tree had no roots, only the trunk …
Eyebrows... That peach tree is fake …
