Chapter 611 Relaxation and Lazy Life in the World Tree
However, before that, Xu Xin took Li Wenxi out of the World Tree.
He took her to the crystal room and injected her with genetic medicine.
"It hurts so much!" Li Wenxi exclaimed in pain, "Wow, why does it hurt so much!"
"'Immortal life' comes at a price. Well, now you are also a person who can 'immortal life'. The price is just a little pain in your arm." Xu Xin said with a smile.
"Alas... it's so easy to achieve 'immortality'." Li Wenxi pulled her arm out of the instrument, leaving a mark of a pinhole on her slender and white arm.
She touched the area where she was injected with the medicine: "It always feels... a bit unreal."
She stretched out her hand and touched her face: "Then, I won't get older now? This is really good. When I was in the World Tree just now, I still felt that time was passing so fast in the World Tree. There won’t be any problem...eh?”
She glanced at her hands, which were covered with dead facial skin that had fallen off.
Screams rang out from the Crystal Room and echoed in the deserted Crystal City.
……
"Gululu..." Li Wenxi exposed half of her head from the lake, blowing bubbles and sulking.
She was still blaming Xu Xin for not telling her earlier, which made her think for a moment that she was allergic to this genetic medicine and was going to turn into a monster.
"Hahaha..." Xu Xin was still smiling, "Hey, your reaction was completely what I expected."
"Okay! You did it on purpose!" Li Wenxi suddenly stood up from the lake and stared at Xu Xin.
She had no hair on her body at this time, her new skin was as smooth and white as gelatin, her chest suddenly showed its spring light, and her perfectly slender legs only exposed a small part of the water, looming, which made Xu Xin's eyes widen.
He and Li Wenxi hadn't seen each other for a while, nor had they been intimate. This wet look made him unable to bear it.
Li Wenxi also noticed something strange about Xu Xin, raised the corners of her mouth, and took two steps towards him slowly.
The further you go towards the lake, the deeper the water dives.
"The temperature of this lake is so comfortable, why don't you come down and take a bath." Li Wenxi's words revealed temptation.
Xu Xin took a deep breath and took a step forward. In the end, she did not move forward and said feebly: "Okay, okay, come out quickly. Stop making trouble. This is outside the World Tree."
"What's going on outside the World Tree? Why don't we finish it quickly!" Li Wenxi made no secret of it.
"No matter how fast you go, how fast can you go?" Xu Xin said angrily, "Don't think about it. When you go back and people ask, 'Why have you been out for so many days?', how will you answer? Tell them we are outside. Happy?”
"Ah this..." Li Wenxi blinked, "Are you that strong?"
"? Are you looking down on me?" Xu Xin's eyes twitched and she almost got into the water to prove it, but in the end she shook her head helplessly, "Okay, come out quickly, let's go back first."
"Oh oh oh, okay." Li Wenxi walked out of the water and got dressed.
"Go back quickly. I'll take you for an injection and a bath. It's already been twenty minutes." Xu Xin looked at her watch.
Inside, more than a day has passed!
Of course, because there is no 24-hour day and night cycle inside, and it is always daytime, the people inside the World Tree are not that sensitive to the passage of time.
"Ah! Let's go back quickly!"
The two hurried back to the World Tree.
"...Wow!" The moment he entered the World Tree, Li Wenxi opened his eyes and said in surprise, "Oh...is the layout here originally like this?"
The tree house that was originally located in the center of the entire reclaimed area in front has been completely relocated.
This area has completely become a farm and pasture.
And all the tree houses have now been moved to the other side of the vine ball elevator exit, becoming a dedicated... residential area?
"Is this... dividing functional areas?" Xu Xin understood.
"Sigh... I finally realized how exaggerated the flow of time is at a hundred times speed..." Li Wenxi looked at everything in front of her, her throat twitched, and she said with a smile, "Fortunately, we didn't do anything outside..."
< br>
They had only been out for twenty minutes, and earth-shaking changes had taken place inside.
"Aren't you afraid of being here?" Xu Xin looked at Li Wenxi and said.
……
"Hey? Are those Brother Xin and Wen Xi? Are they going out?"
"I don't know. Didn't Sister Wen Xi say she would take us to mine? It's been almost a day, no, it's been more than a day!"
"Alas, everything is good in this World Tree, but the length of day and night is a bit inexplicable. It is really too long."
"Hey, what a shortcoming, I just love the light!"
"After that, if there are more than ten days of constant nights, don't cry!"
"Why are you crying? I love the night too! As long as there is no danger here, I love everything here!"
"Yes, yes, you love everything... Huh? Brother Xin and the others went straight to Wen Xi's tree house?"
"Why do you feel a little urgent? Did the two of them discover something outside and do they want to study it urgently?"
"I have been out for more than a day, and I must have learned a lot!"
……
Li Wenxi lay in Xu Xin's arms, very satisfied.
Xu Xin also felt refreshed and felt that the fatigue accumulated during this period was gone.
Back in the World Tree, with the blessing of a hundred times the speed of time, nothing is very urgent.
In short, please satisfy yourself first.
"Haha, they are building homes and we are doing this kind of thing here."
Xu Xin smiled and pinched Li Wenxi's cheek.
After the improvement of the genetic medicine and the sweating just now, the hand feels smoother than before.
"Well... don't say this, I'm going to feel guilty." Li Wenxi buried her head, "I just remembered that I haven't gone out to mine yet..."
"It hasn't been long, hasn't it?" Xu Xin looked at the ceiling, stretching and relaxing, "For you, it's only been more than an hour."
"But we were out for twenty minutes." Li Wenxi said in a low voice, "For them, it was almost two days."
"Almost two days...for Yggdrasil, it's nothing." Xu Xin looked out the window, "It's just...two days."
In this hundred-fold rapid flow of time, his entire thinking... became much lazier.
Every minute that passes, not a second passes outside. Every hour that passes, not a minute passes outside.
This thought hit his head all the time.
No one would be lazy!
Even if a group of stone statues comes to attack the next day... so what?
As long as you live in this World Tree, that will only happen after a hundred days or three months.
The time is simply ridiculous.
It is in sharp contrast to the previous feeling of being limited to a few hours for an activity, time is life, and racing against time.
If he lives outside, he has always been in a very tight state. When he comes to the world tree, this tight string is completely loosened in an instant.
Not only him, but also other explorers, especially those who had already experienced the happy life for half a month before him.
The most obvious one is Wen Guixin.
Wen Guixin, who had always been very impatient, now likes to lie by the window and watch the scenery doing nothing. When discussing, she talks much less than before.
So does everyone else actually.
Everyone is basically no longer as tense as before.
That is to say, after Ji Chaoyang made his prediction for the next day, everyone was anxious for a while, and then it was proved to be the second day from the outside world, and they immediately returned to that subtle laxity.
In fact, this is also normal.
Now that they have a lot of time, they can completely let them be undisciplined.
Speaking of which, Xu Ying is the most motivated among everyone now.
After all, her current situation is not optimistic.
However, Xu Xin felt that the previous plan might be delayed a few days.
Take this opportunity to relax before continuing.
Anyway, it doesn’t waste much time from the outside world.
Hmm... No, you can relax, but...
At least we have to find Lou Feier and the others first.
Just like at a dinner party, I always feel a little uncomfortable if my chopsticks are moved before everyone has arrived.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Xin sat up from the bed, patted her face to wake up, "Now it's really time to get down to business!"
"Well...we need to bring Fei'er and the others back, right." Li Wenxi also sat up, "Didn't you contact them outside just now?"
"Of course I contacted you, just when you jumped into the lake and started rubbing yourself like crazy." Xu Xin smiled, but a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, "However, the other party did not get through."
While outside, he tried to send voice messages to Lou Fei'er, Shi Wanyun, and Jin Yue.
But no reply was received.
This made him slightly uneasy, which was one of the reasons why he was able to resist the huge temptation just now in the lake outside.
restless. Can't waste precious time outside.
But in World Tree, this anxiety is diluted a hundred times.
"Ah?" Li Wenxi's expression suddenly changed and she became worried, "Then let's go find them quickly! How can we still have time to do this..."
"It's nothing..." Xu Xin pursed her lips, "It's only been a few dozen seconds outside."
"That...that's...it seems so." Li Wenxi was stunned for a moment, and then sighed, "A hundred times the time is really the biggest problem!"
"But now it's really time to get down to business."
The two got up, got dressed, and came down from the tree house.
"Is it over?" Under the tree house, Qi Xuefei looked at the two people with a smile.
"Xue...Sister Xue Fei?" Li Wenxi was dumbfounded, "When did you come?"
"Twenty minutes ago?" Qi Xuefei said with a hint of ridicule in her tone.
"Uh..." Li Wenxi's face suddenly turned red, "Then why don't you just call us."
"Well...next time, remember to close the window." Qi Xuefei answered the question.
"...Ah!" Li Wenxi turned around suddenly and looked up, only to see a gap in the window, "Ah this...ah!!"
She squatted down and covered her face.
Xu Xin also blushed.
This is really...
"Ugh... I'm too shameless to be a human being..."
"Okay, you two, everyone is waiting for you. If you have anything to discuss, come quickly." Qi Xuefei couldn't help laughing, then reminded them, and then turned and walked back.
Sister Xue Fei's concept of time, as well as everyone's concept of time, has been greatly changed by this hundred-fold time flow rate.
Xu Xin looked at Qi Xuefei's back and sighed secretly.
If this was placed outside, how could she wait down there for twenty minutes.
How could the others have been waiting for the two of them?
"Woooo... It's over, they are all waiting for us..." Li Wenxi said with tears in her eyes, "I don't want to go there, you can go for me."
"What are you talking about?" Xu Xin pulled her up and walked over there.
The two quickly reached the tree house over there and were pulled up.
Everyone has gathered again.
Everyone looked at the two of them with slightly ambiguous expressions.
"It's understandable." Xu Ying walked closer to the two of them and laughed softly, "My sister-in-law just improved her genes, which really makes people... ah!"
Xu Xin gave her a slap on the head: "Shut up!"
"Yingying!" Li Wenxi pulled Xu Ying's mouth back and forth.
"Don't...don't mess with me! I didn't go out with you on purpose! You still have to thank me!"
"What did you say!"
"Okay, okay, although we have a lot of time, we can't be so lazy." Ji Chaoyang clapped his hands, then looked at Xu Xin, "Have you contacted Lou Fei'er and the other three when you went out this time?"
Xu Xin slowly shook his head: "No, I haven't contacted them. If it's District 188, I can still use my map to detect their location, but they are in District 1. So, I plan to..."
He looked at Xu Ying, whose face was deformed by Li Wenxi: "Take Yingying with you and go to District 1 to have a look."
"Me?" Xu Ying grabbed Li Wenxi's hand with one hand, "Well, okay, with my teleportation ability, I can avoid risks and safety at any time in such a far place, and I can quickly bring them back when I find them. .”
Ji Chaoyang nodded: "Then I'll leave this matter to you. Everyone, now that Xu Xin and Li Wenxi are back, there is one thing for which everyone's opinions need to be solicited, especially the opinions of Xu Xin and Li Wenxi."
"Huh? What's going on?" Li Wenxi was startled and pointed at herself, "Especially me? I don't know much about World Tree. You have all been living here for half a month. It's up to you to decide these things. I I can’t make any comments.”
"No, now among us, only you, Xu Xin and Xu Ying have a relatively intuitive experience of this matter." Ji Chaoyang said.
Wen Guixin looked at Ji Chaoyang: "You want to talk about this thing that takes a hundred times longer, right?"
Ah...
Xu Xin and Li Wenxi looked at each other.
Indeed, the two of them had a deep experience of the difference in the flow of time between inside and outside.
Ji Chaoyang nodded: "That's it. We should consider now whether we should tell other survivors that time flows a hundred times faster."
"Ah? Haven't we told the other survivors yet?" Li Wenxi said in surprise.
"No, never. I only told a few people." Ji Chaoyang said, "Because this matter may cause everyone's dissatisfaction."
"Why is this... ah." Li Wenxi suddenly understood, "Time flows too fast. Compared with people in the outside world, it is equivalent to accelerating aging."
She was a little worried about this before.
"That's it." Zhao Xiaochuan spread his hands, "Isn't it said in the fairy tale, one day in the sky and one year on the earth. We are one day outside and one hundred days inside. The outside world has become the sky."
...That's true of Ali.
For those of them who have been injected with genetic medicine, the rapid flow of time inside is nothing.
But for ordinary people like them...
Doesn’t it just accelerate aging? (End of chapter)
