Doomsday Wonderland

Two hundred and ninety: How to buy steamed buns in the fourth world

Lin Sanjiu admitted that he had seen quite a bit of the world. The desolate and deserted extreme-temperature hell, the Garden of Eden full of otherworldly technology, the deathly quiet Kisaragi Station...

But there has never been a world where she could feel like a country bumpkin.

When she teleported here, it was night in the Red Nautilus World.

In the dark red sky, two huge full moons, like ice flakes, overlapped each other. The moon is so close to the ground that people even doubt that they can clearly see the pits on their surface - walking under the huge full moon suspended in the sky almost gives you the thrilling illusion of floating in the universe.

The gleaming light cast from the two full moons was cut into several pieces by one after another, huge mountain-like black shadows on the horizon. Lin Sanjiu stared at those dark figures, squinting her eyes and thinking for a long time, not knowing what they were.

Human buildings are obviously not so huge. Even when viewed from such a distance, the size ratio between them and human cities is almost out of balance - compared with a tall building next to it, they look like hills. with grass seedlings.

... Such a shocking contrast is like the mountain of gods thrown down from the sky by Zeus, rolling into a long stretch, standing steadily on the horizon, shining with a faint red light in the moonlight.

Lin Sanjiu looked around, as if she wanted to find some clues around her; however, after scanning around, she was immediately lost and almost forgot about the huge black figure in the distance.

The place where she landed was in the alley between two buildings. Through the gap between the buildings, she could see the distance. Not sure if this was lucky, Lin Sanjiu looked up. Only then did she realize that the two buildings around her towered into the sky, and the roofs of the buildings had even disappeared into the night clouds. She didn't know how many floors there were; and after walking a few steps along the alley, she found where she was. , as far as the eye can see is a steel jungle high and low, the small gap that can be seen just now is actually unique.

Viaducts divided into twenty floors, high-rise buildings so densely packed that it was almost impossible for people to pass, thick smoke coming from unknown chimneys, and two giant moons above the head divided into several pieces by various wires. Along with the alleyway where sewage still accumulates underfoot. It forms this strange scene like a technological wasteland.

Listening to the faint sounds of cars and people, Lin Sanjiu felt a long-lost sense of novelty in her heart, as if she couldn't get enough. As if in a dream, I slowly walked out along the alley.

The two bone wings were still stuck in the darkness behind her, and one of her toes had already stepped into the busy world.

A sharp warning "beep" suddenly pierced the air, accompanied by waves of exclamations and complaints. A metal aircraft made a thrilling sudden stop in the air, and then it did not hit the high-rise building next to Lin Sanjiu; it swayed back and forth for a while, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort. The aircraft finally stopped in the air.

Lin Sanjiu's surprised gaze rested on the aircraft for a few seconds, and then he looked past it and into this other world.

A sign with the words "Stay in the hotel for as little as 35 Xiaojing a night". It was so dirty that it was almost impossible to see its true colors. It was hanging crookedly on the door opening of the ground floor of a building. There were many different words written on it - in addition to English and Japanese, Lin Sanjiu could still recognize it. The remaining ones were so weird that she had never seen them before.

Looking around, there are shops and vendors written in various languages ​​and providing various services. Crowded streets filled with sewage; "high price exchange for special items", "half price query for paid information", "weapon tempering and ability training", "free identification of special items", "doomsday survival workshop", etc. The signs are so crowded that there is almost no room for them, and the advertisements painted on the building are covered one after another.

Although she was dragging a nearly 2-meter-high bone wing behind her, she was surprisingly inconspicuous - because the people here were dressed so strangely; compared with the fellow villagers, the Lou brothers and sisters were really dressed up. Very conservative.

A black shadow the size of a cat flashed past from the other end of the street. Immediately afterwards, a woman wrapped in a tight-fitting snow-white fish skin chased after her, seeming to be shouting "Wait for me." "Xiaobao"; four or five stories above Lin Sanjiu's head, a window suddenly opened, revealing an old Taoist priest with a refreshing Taoist spirit and a white face. The aunt, who was wearing many small rolls, was shouting curses in Shanghainese through the window.

Lin Sanjiu walked slowly on the street like a countryman who had just entered the city, a little at a loss.

"Girl, would you like some steamed buns?" A gentle-looking woman wearing a red cheongsam greeted her with a smile, "Our red nautilus steamed buns are the most famous snack!"

She looked like she had just arrived, and even a steamed bun seller could spot it - Lin Sanjiu suddenly remembered Lou Ye's words, and couldn't help but become a little curious, and glanced at the steaming glass in front of her with interest. The box was so hazy that she couldn't see it clearly, so she asked, "What kind of buns are there?"

"There are so many varieties!" the woman said with a smile, seemingly not surprised at all by the bone wings behind her: "What color do you want? I have mysterious purple, elegant gray, romantic pink, classic black, and fresh ones here. Green and yellow, one small crystal, how many are there?"

Lin Sanjiu was stunned for two seconds.

"Here, let's have some yellow porn, and fresh green." She stuttered a bit - she didn't know how to ask her doubts at all.

"Okay!" The cheongsam woman took out a piece of brown paper from somewhere, wrapped two white, tender, hot snow dumplings, and handed them to Lin Sanjiu. She found the two smallest red crystals and handed them over. She took them and looked at them carefully. She really didn't know where the "yellow" was, and she was a little hesitant and didn't dare to eat it. She just held it with both hands and tentatively Asked: "...Have you been setting up a stall here?"

"As long as I return to Red Nautilus, I will come here to run a stall." The cheongsam woman was very enthusiastic. "I just came back this time, and I am still 14 months old. Girls can come here often if they want to eat!"

"Ah, oh, okay..." Lin Sanjiu showed his unmistakable expression as he entered the Twelve Realms for the first time, "Excuse me, how should I go to Sigela Square?"

That was the meeting place she had arranged with the Lou brothers and sisters.

"Oh, that's far away." Although the cheongsam woman's enthusiasm remained the same, her desire to leave the stall was subtly expressed: "Why don't you buy a map and take a look!"

Lin Sanjiu responded with a bit of embarrassment and continued walking forward with the bun in hand, looking around as he walked. Occasionally she turned around and found that another local resident who looked like just bought a few buns from Hong Qipao and ate them as if nothing had happened. Then she carefully brought the still warm "Fresh Green" to her mouth. .

Just like when early spring arrives and the forest trees sprout, the refreshing breath of new leaves suddenly hits the nose. Lin Sanjiu doesn't know what the ingredients of this bun are, but she has never experienced this kind of smell. It has a special fragrance that lingers; although it is as fresh as grass and trees, the aftertaste is sweet, and there is a faint bitterness when chewing. When mixed together, it turns out to be a very wonderful taste.

After finishing the buns in three strokes, Lin Sanjiu thought about it reluctantly for a while.

It is indeed the most famous snack in the world of red nautilus - she glanced at the remaining "yellow pieces" in her hand, and her curiosity suddenly became much stronger than before; just when she was hesitating whether to eat it now , happened to see a small shop selling maps not far away, and hurriedly walked a few steps forward and stopped.

There are at least a dozen kinds of maps of the Red Nautilus world. Lin Sanjiu didn't know which one to buy. After thinking about it for a long time, he spent eight small crystals to get a map of the whole world and a copy of hers. Map of the cyber area where it is located.

Opening the two maps for comparison, Lin Sanjiu stood on the street and studied them. It took her more than ten minutes before she put down the map a little stupidly.

Who said the red nautilus is small?

——It is nearly 10,000 kilometers from the Cyber ​​Zone to the location of Xigela Square. In other words, Lin Sanjiu must cross half of the planet. (To be continued)
