Chapter 24 Your friend has left the team
Wei Huo glanced at Aunt Li and found that she bowed to the end of the road very respectfully, then retreated.
Wei Huo continued to walk forward. After reaching the end, Wei Huo first saw nine pillars, one in the middle was the highest, and the other pillars were distributed around the pillar, forming a building similar to a clock.
Then Wei Huo suddenly saw an extremely huge white stone man. The stone man was almost seventy or eighty meters high. Half of its body was embedded in the mountains, and green moss covered half of its body.
When Wei Huo came in, he saw it looking up at the sky motionlessly. If Wei had not received the system prompt, he would have thought it was a huge statue.
Through the system prompt, Wei Huo clearly saw the identity of this giant.
Mountain Giant, Epic, No Gender, 398 years old.
"Two hundred years ago, the sun should have reached its highest position, but now, it has just risen. Is it 'we are fast'? Or is it 'slow'?" The mountain giant murmured, speaking the language of their mountain tribe.
Wei Huo curled the corners of his mouth slightly: "What you mean is that it is not that the time of day has become longer, but that our nerve reflexes and movement speed have become faster, so we feel that the day has been extended?"
It's like a person who can reach the speed of light, then everything around him is still to him.
The mountain giant lowered his head and bent his mouth slightly: "It's very interesting, an epic among humans. At first, I really didn't know what those statues protected by golden light were. I didn't expect that they suddenly came alive a few days ago and called themselves humans. I'm really curious about you, why are you so special?"
Wei Huo touched his chin: "This is why you protect them? Are you observing humans, trying to understand humans? If you understand, what would you do?"
The mountain giant said: "I can't do anything, well... as long as it doesn't threaten my safety. I am a pacifist. I think all living things in the world are equal, humans, plants, and stones are equal, and I hope to live in harmony with each other."
Wei Huo nodded. There is such an epic living here, and coupled with the natural barrier of rose bushes, this place is really a paradise!
The mountain giant raised his head and looked at the sky: "More than a hundred years ago, a group of humans riding a horse suddenly appeared. Each of them was epic. They moved mountains and reclaimed seas, transformed mountains and rivers, and captured epic creatures. More than a hundred years ago, there was a particularly irritable tyrannosaurus nearby, but it was captured. Otherwise, it would not be my turn to become epic."
Wei Huo knew who the tyrannosaurus was.
So no matter whether you are a human or a beast, you can't be too arrogant...
Wei Huo talked with the mountain giant for a long time. They were not very different in age and had something to talk about. The mountain giant had their own opinions and thoughts on many things. Although some of these thoughts and opinions were very immature, they had a new inspiration for Wei Huo.
During the conversation, Wei Huo was thinking that I had never thought about these questions, but was answering them based on the knowledge I learned at the beginning.
For example, the mountain giant has his own view of time: "One day has eight hours and one night has eight hours. Look at the pillar I erected on the ground in front. I call it the 'sun pillar', which is used to record time. Look, now the shadow has reached the longest pillar, which means that the first hour has passed."
Wei Huo knew that the so-called "day pillar" and "hour" were all translated by a translation machine. It cannot be said accurately enough, but it is enough to explain what the mountain giant wants to express.
Wei Huoze did not have such considerations or inventions. He just said: "From our human time, we are currently 48 hours a day, 60 minutes a day, and 60 seconds a minute."
The Mountain Giant was curious: "How long is a second?"
Wei Huo blinked slowly, snapped his fingers, and took two steps.
The mountain giant nodded: "I understand, you humans have a very fast time. Is it because you have a short life span?"
Wei Huo thought for a while and said, "No, we left too quickly."
The mountain giant nodded: "Time has not become longer or shorter, it's just that different creatures walk fast or slower. It takes four hours to think about a problem. Sometimes I spend a whole day observing the sun. I think the sun is a mythical creature. It cares for the earth like a mother. Maybe the earth is its child."
The Mountain Giant probably failed to catch a partner who could communicate with him for a long time. He said a lot to Wei Huo, told a lot of things, and kept telling his own stories. The key is that it speaks very slowly, very similar to the dialogue of some domestic TV series. The TV series will end with a few words you say to me.
Wei Huo came back after communicating with the mountain giant for seven or eight hours. At this moment, the sun was in the middle position. The mountain giant said that it needed to pay attention to the sun and think about the stone life at this moment, but before Wei Huo left, it also said: "Everything has its own way, we cannot interfere; everything has its end, we cannot stop it."
Wei Huo did not understand why the mountain giant said this. Maybe it had seen too many deaths. Wei Huo was the same. He also witnessed the demise of many things. Perhaps one day, he would witness his own demise. As the mountain giant said, everything would have an end.
When Wei Huo returned to the Rose Manor, Xiao Bin and the others had already started their meal for the second time. Wei Huo walked to the door and said, "It's time for us to leave!"
Xiao Bin immediately stood up, Mo Guyun hesitated for a moment and stood up, but Lu Ren, Long Tao and Liu Ying did not move.
Wei Huo frowned slightly, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. Everyone looked at Wei Huo with some fear, especially Lu Ren and Long Tao.
Mo Guyun walked over and said, "Little Sister Liu Ying is not in good health and is not suitable for following us for a long journey. Aunt Li talked to me for a long time, otherwise let her stay here!"
Wei Huo nodded: "I won't force anyone, I can stay whatever I want!"
Wei Huo looked at Xiao Bin: "Do you want to stay?"
Xiao Bin shook his head with great determination: "No, I want to follow Brother Wei and continue moving forward."
Wei Huo looked at Lu Ren and Long Tao again. The two of them stood up, a little at a loss. Under the eyes of Wei Huo, they did not dare to look up, but they still said timidly: "I'm sorry, Brother Wei, we want to stay. Traveling outside is too dangerous. With our strength, it's just a burden to you. We will follow you next time!"
