Chapter 151 151. The legend of the giant beast in the sky

Late at night, the rain became heavier and heavier.

Jiangcheng is occasionally affected by typhoons, and Qiao Mu just passed the edge of a typhoon before entering this game of God's Chosen One.

Most of his knowledge of such giant storms was limited to online jokes about migrant workers eager to take a typhoon vacation.

Normally, the eye of a typhoon is characterized by low pressure, calm weather, and no clouds, let alone rainfall.

There was also a movie that showed the temperature at the center of a typhoon being so low that in extreme cases water could even drop into ice. As for whether it was true or not, Qiao Mu had no way of knowing.

Therefore, he was also surprised as to why there was such heavy rainfall in Hongdao.

Anyway, it's not Qiao Mu's fault.

Looking out the window, Qiao Mu saw that most of the rain hit the barrier formed by the sacred tree and formed a small stream, falling into the endless sea of ​​clouds. Deep lightning jumped between the clouds covering the island. He had never seen it before. Not being so close to the thundercloud, it felt like if I just stretched out my hand, my fingertips would be able to touch the dancing lightning.

As a result, there is only a slight drizzle on the island, which falls on the crops in the yard, but nourishes everything.

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by roaring thunder. The rain blurred the barrier of the sacred tree and blocked the view. However, Qiao Mu felt that behind the lightning and thunder, there seemed to be something huge and slowly swimming. .

[It is the master of the storm, don’t try to reason with this guy, it will just strike you to death with a thunderbolt! 】

The bright red words dripped little by little along the path of the rain.

"Did you see it?"

Qiao Mu pointed at the huge shadow and asked.

"What?"

Noah was packing his things. Hearing this, he followed Qiao Mu's fingers and looked out the window, but he only saw the same heavy rain. Even if the lightning illuminated it, there were only deep dark clouds covering it.

"Do you know the legend of the giant beast?"

At the other end of the room, Captain Isaac yawned and spoke softly.

"The giant beast of the sky?"

Ah Xin asked with interest, she might have seen something between the storm, and glanced out the window from time to time.

"I've heard of the king of the sea of ​​clouds, the master of the storm, the ancient beast that existed where this world was born, but that's just a legend, right?"

Enya said that she had read many books about the sea of ​​clouds and adventures in her library. Some were out-of-print exploration manuscripts, some were anecdotes from the streets of Ishii, and official investigation reports. She used to long for the sea of ​​clouds. But now, when she was really in it, she understood the danger here.

"It is said that the place where this world was born was only endless wind. At that time, there was no sky, earth, island, water flow, and even life had not yet appeared. Later, under the care of the Moonlight Goddess, the wind gave birth to wisdom, and the original life was born. Life, that is the giant beast of the sky."

Captain Isaac said as he recalled.

"The number of Heavenly Curtain Behemoths has reached a certain level, and fighting is inevitable. It is said that the sea of ​​clouds under our feet and these floating islands were formed after the fall of different Heavenly Curtain Behemoths."

"This should just be some scholars' speculation about the reasons for the formation of this world. There is no actual evidence."

Enya retorted that it was not that she was ungrateful, but she just felt that it would be too irresponsible to attribute everything to the Moon Goddess.

"Of course, because so far, no one has actually witnessed the legendary giant beast of the sky. The largest creature currently known to mankind is the rainbow whale. The largest whale is larger than the government's battleship, but even the smallest one is The giant sky-curtain beast is far larger than the Rainbow Whale."

Captain Isaac said faintly, and a thunder exploded in the sky, illuminating the room.

"People build towns around the floating islands around the maelstrom, but over the years, we have only explored a small part of the sea of ​​clouds. At the end of the skyline, no one knows whether there is a giant sky-curtain beast sleeping, like This storm has never been recorded by any scholars and explorers in the past, and we still don’t know where it is. Maybe there really is a giant sky beast here. "

Different from the world Qiao Mu lives in, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind has many restrictions on its exploration of the world, and it is even impossible to glimpse the whole world. Although there are ships, guns, and a civilization that is close to modern times, humans have no understanding of this world. Little is known.

"Maybe this storm was created by the giant Sky Curtain Beast, and this is just its lair."

Captain Isaac laughed to himself.

Suddenly, a mushroom grew out of his hand.

This is very strange. Although Qiao Mu has heard that in some places, mushrooms can grow on the wood as soon as it rains, but this is the first time he has seen them grow so quickly.

On Captain Isaac's hand, mushrooms quickly grew all over the wall. They were colorful, with red umbrellas and white poles, making people lie down just by looking at them.

"This is?"

Enya tried to reach out and touch the mushrooms, but found that these mushrooms did not have entities, but were like clouds, with only an illusory touch.

"This is also a dream."

Noah explained calmly.

"I said during the day that people's dreams are connected together. Even when they are awake, they can see other people's dreams. This situation is even more obvious during heavy rainy nights."

Qiao Mu heard something moving outside the window. He looked around and saw a group of people in costumes singing and dancing. They walked towards the sky step by step and lined up in mid-air, playing a cheerful and simple melody.

Some men and women wearing ancient and gorgeous costumes were dancing in the rain, and strange animals were jumping around. Modernity and wildness seemed to blend together at this moment.

There seemed to be movement from the next room. Noah stood up and opened the door slightly.

His mother was sleeping soundly in bed, but there were two translucent figures sitting at the table. The two figures were illusory and ethereal, and they were obviously younger.

".This is my father."

Noah said in a deep voice. When he saw the two figures, a man and a woman, talking at the table, he closed the door silently.

"My father died when I was very young because he wanted to explore the storm. Since then, he has often appeared in my mother's dreams. At least the two of them can meet in dreams, which is good."

Under the protection of the sacred tree and in the drizzle, a city of memories rises from the ground.

Those buildings of the past and the people who passed away are reborn in the dreamland constructed by memories. The great-grandfather plays with the granddaughter he has never seen before. The old man who has become a grandfather cries in the shadow of his young parents. Everyone knows that heavy rain will After that, everything will be washed away, but everyone is immersed in this momentary dream.

Captain Isaac saw a man in military uniform standing outside the door. He had thick eyebrows and a resolute expression.

Enya saw the gentle parents she had never seen before hugging her as a child.

Qiao Mu looked at Ah Xin.

He found an illusory cat walking around the girl's feet.
