Dream Guide

Situ's words completely shattered the illusion that static time and space did not exist. The atomic clock of his consciousness only ticked for one second, which meant that only one second of time on earth had passed, but half a day had passed for them. This means that the time here is 40,000 times different from that outside. If you stay outside for one day, it will take almost a hundred years here.

If it takes ten days for the Ramla space node where Hurakan is located to pass through this tunnel, that is, from the perspective of the earth, they will not leave this static space after ten days, then for them, a thousand years have passed. .

"Oh, will I turn into a mummy bird? Well, in a thousand years, will my fur fall out? Or will I turn into a fossil?" Crow tilted his head and thought.

Alice buried her head in Mrs. Larry's arms and cried, "We are all going to die here!"

Mrs. Larry comforted her: "There is nothing to be afraid of. At least it feels like our lives are no different. Just treat this place as an isolated island on the earth and think of Robinson Crusoe."

Alice said: "But Robinson only stayed on the island for twenty-eight years and was finally saved, and we..."

"Yes, so we should hold on for at least twenty-eight years, shouldn't we?" Mrs. Larry said.

Madam's words made everyone seem to see hope again. Yes, it’s not the last moment yet, who says there is no hope for the future?

"Hey, madam, you're right. Our lives are no different. We still have...dried fish!" The crow flew up on the green wood, croaking and flying to the food that had been prepared but not yet eaten.

Meowing loudly, he expressed his agreement.

Everyone has been hungry for a long time, but because too many unpleasant things have happened just now, including the destruction of the Itsa people, the deaths of Anderson and Boris, and the troubles of static time and space, people have lost their appetite. Now, as soon as the crow reminds me, my physiological needs are awakened, and my stomach growls.

Under the starry sky with four suns, they didn't know whether it was lunch or dinner. Time was the least important thing here. No matter how they raced against time, the time outside this dark glass house was almost the same as it was here. Will not flow.

With Anderson gone, the job of fishing was left to Ivan and Petrou. Situ and Qingmu went to the shore to cut wood, make tools, and keep it as firewood. Three women were responsible for picking wild fruits and drying and preserving food. The coal boss and Heng Ran cooperated with each other, and sometimes they were able to catch mice, snakes, and some unnamed small animals from the nearby woods.

They finally lived like Robinson Crusoe, except that the savages here had long since died and would not suddenly light bonfires on the beach and leave cannibalistic embers. The only disturbing thing is the hundreds of mummies on the ship. The air here is humid. If not disposed of in time, the corpses will become moldy or even rot for a second time, and the entire ship will become smelly.

"Go and carry them out." Situ said.

"Oh, this isn't a very pleasant job," Pettru complained.

Situ said: "If you don't do it now, you will be even more uncomfortable in a few days."

"Can it be thrown into the water?" Pettru asked.

Mrs. Larry said: "No, the water will float when it soaks. You don't want to see hundreds of corpses floating on the water in a few days. It's best to dig a hole on the shore and bury them."

"Hundreds of people!" said Petru.

Aoki also felt that it was unrealistic to dig a large pit for hundreds of people, not to mention that there were thousands of people in the Ulacan tribe who had not yet been buried.

Alice said: "Cremate it!"

Everyone thinks this is best, just like on earth, people must be cremated after death. They discussed for a while and then assigned the task: Ivan and Petru went down to find out if there were any tools that could transport the body, such as a trolley or something. After finding it, they would transport the body to the deck first, while Madam and Alice stayed behind. On the deck, Su Huilan and Du Wa were responsible for rowing the raft over. Two small boats could not transport hundreds of people, and they did not want to use their own boats to transport corpses. Qingmu and Situ went to the shore to find a suitable place for cremation, and prepared dry firewood for burning there.

Qingmu and Situ also chose the place where the Sanchi tribe once camped. It was the closest to the beach and would not be too tiring to move. Moreover, the savages had already piled up a lot of firewood when they set up camp. They moved the dry firewood to a place suitable for burning and would not cause forest fires. They first used large branches to raise the bottom layer, and then put thin dead branches and fallen leaves on top, so that it could be fully burned.

This job is not easy. The two men worked for a long time, and by the time they were done, the first batch of corpses on the bamboo rafts had already arrived. The woman looked at the raft while the men carried the bodies ashore and piled them on the prepared pile of dry firewood. After several trips back and forth, all the corpses on the big ship were transported.

In the ship before, except for the eerie feeling when I got off the cabin, there was nothing else. After all, the bodies were distributed in different cabins. Now more than three hundred mummies are stacked together, which looks shocking.

People stood in front of the pile of corpses and prayed, waiting for the fire to be lit.

Situ suddenly asked: "Ivan, are you sure everyone is here? I don't seem to see Ronald Cohen!"

Ivan looked at Petru and said, "Petrew moved the bodies of Halsey and Ronald."

But Petru shook his head: "Oh no, no, no, I only moved the lieutenant colonel's body. I didn't see Ronald Cohen. I thought you moved it."

Ivan said: "I didn't move."

"But there is indeed no one inside." Petru said very firmly.

The atmosphere suddenly became weird.

"Let's go back and look for it."

Petru and Ivan went back on the raft. People waited for a long time, but they didn't come back. Aoki felt something was wrong, so he said, "Let's go back and take a look."

The four women stayed to look after the pile of corpses, and he and Situ returned to the ship together. They entered the bridge and went down to the bilge. After emptying the bodies, the air in the cabin seemed much better, but they found nothing, not even Ivan and Petlu.

They checked most of the cabins and corners, and shouted again in every cabin, but there was no movement. When they returned to the deck, they found that Su Huilan and Du Wa had also arrived.

"What happened? Why didn't you come out for so long?" Su Huilan asked.

Aoki said: "Petru and Ivan are missing."

"Missed?" Su Huilan felt very strange, "Have you found everything?"

Situ said: "It is impossible for the two of us to find such a big ship, but if they are in the ship and we make such a big noise, they should give us some response."

"Could they have come out already?" She didn't know what happened to Ivan, but she knew Petru well. It would not be easy to make this guy disappear silently.

"It's possible, but where could they go?"

Qingmu suddenly remembered that when Su Huilan and Dua came over, only Mrs. Larry and Alice were left on the shore. He felt something was wrong and said, "Why are you here?"

Su Huilan said: "We women are left there to guard a lot of dead people. How dare you ask?"

Situ glanced toward the shore worriedly, "Originally, with you and Dua here, we had nothing to worry about, but now only Madam and Alice are left..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw a sudden light of fire on the shore.
