Yu
Chapter 575 Extravagance
Jiang Xiao stepped forward and rubbed Xia Yan's head, "Let's go, let's go, time for the train."
Xia Yan: "Okay."
After waiting in line for a while, the trio boarded a train, fastened their seat belts, and began their railway journey of nearly eight thousand meters.
As the train ventured deeper into the forest, Jiang Xiao and the others were truly dazzled.
Everywhere they looked, there were huge, fat mushrooms, some even growing to a height of 5 or 6 meters. This place had simply turned into a mushroom forest. Although they were motionless, like giant versions of mushrooms, the manual said that they were all genuine star beasts.
Anyway, Jiang Xiao didn't see them moving, so he simply treated them as plant scenery, especially those huge red-spotted mushrooms, which looked just like open umbrellas, particularly magical.
However, what really stunned Jiang Xiao was that in this mushroom forest, Jiang Xiao saw many glittering flowers, each of which was about the size of a fisherman's hat.
Since the roller coaster wasn't fast, a flower even floated up behind the train and into the roller coaster car.
This flower had no roots or stems, nor did it have a face or limbs; it wasn't anthropomorphic at all. It was just a blooming flower.
But it should have some awareness, like a hat, covering people's heads back and forth.
It had 7 or 8 petals, all of which were thick and radiated colorful light. Inside the nearly transparent petal skin was the constantly flowing star power.
When the roller coaster slowly came to a stop, everyone in the car took pictures of Jiang Xiao.
There was no way around it; this flower hat eventually landed on Jiang Xiao's baseball cap and stopped floating. The colorful, thick petals flickered slightly, and layers of star power flowed, spraying out starlight from the pistil.
Unable to withstand the popping of the flashes, Jiang Xiao hurriedly unfastened his seat belt and got out of the car.
And as Jiang Xiao walked, the petals sprayed starlight all the way, refreshing his heart and lungs...
Jiang Xiao had just reached the fence exit when he was stopped by a staff member, who gestured at the flower on his head.
Staff member: "%¥#@!@#¥!"
However, Jiang Xiao couldn't understand Japanese at all.
Seeing this, the staff member repeated it in English, "You can't leave. Sir, this is a unique creature of our scenic area, you have to put it down."
"No, I'll go wherever I want," Jiang Xiao responded, "I am a freely walking flower."
Staff member: "..."
Han Jiangxue, who had caught up from behind, directly took off the "flower hat" and handed it to the staff member.
As a result, the staff member didn't catch it. The thick petals lightly bounced and landed on Jiang Xiao's head again.
Jiang Xiao: "Uh..."
The staff member stepped forward, grasped the colorful petals with both hands, and pulled it down again.
Jiang Xiao: "Look, it likes me, our hearts resonate, it recognizes my point of view, we are both freely walking... hey, don't push, I can walk freely..."
Han Jiangxue pushed and shoved Jiang Xiao, the chatterbox, out of the fence exit.
Jiang Xiao was also amazed. The last time was during the National Competition when Miss Xiong Chumo's pet parrot also fluttered its wings and treated his head as a bird's nest.
Am I really that attractive?
Or is it my special Star Chart, my special type of star power at work?
"Ling~ Ling~"
"Yi~ Yi~"
The two Swaying Bells, which had been released again, actually shook their heads and danced. Their bodies floated up and down, and their round bodies even had a hint of rhythm?
What was even more hateful was that their dark, beady eyes stared at Jiang Xiao, and the direction in which the bells on their heads swayed was exactly the same, especially neat.
Are you two mocking me?
Jiang Xiao's hands were filled with the light of Blessing. He grabbed two thin ropes and pulled them down, pulling the two little guys down, and then reached out and touched them.
"Yi~"
"Yi~"
The two little guys squinted their eyes and made tiny sounds in their small mouths. Then, these two floating Swaying Bells actually "crashed"!
They fell directly from mid-air...
Were they dizzied by the milk?
Couldn't they even handle this little bit of Blessing?
I haven't even used any force, and you've already fallen?
Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan were taken aback, and they picked up the thin ropes, fearing that the two little guys would really fall to the ground.
Holding the Swaying Bells in her hands, Han Jiangxue glared at Jiang Xiao reproachfully. Xia Yan, on the other hand, couldn't help but kick him.
I dodge~
...
After walking across a wide wooden bridge, Jiang Xiao and the others heard the laughter and play of children.
The three of them quickened their pace and walked out of the forest, only to see a lake area below the hillside.
Floating on the lake were square, colorful ducks. Two or three tourists were sitting on the square backs. The backs of the square ducks even had railings added. These were genuine water duck boats...
Finally, the main star beasts of the amusement park had appeared.
Everything that followed was very simple; either spend money to sit on the square ducks and go down the river, or don't spend money and walk to the next scenic spot...
The trio, of course, boarded a duck boat. The square back of the colorful duck was very large, five meters long and three meters wide, with a hard texture, like wood, which made Jiang Xiao secretly exclaim. The Creator was truly amazing.
When Jiang Xiao had just touched the Swaying Bells, his Inner Vision Star Chart had given information about these weak creatures. They had no star techniques at all... Jiang Xiao would certainly not absorb them as star pets.
And this duck, and the flower from before, although they were also Bronze-rank, they were not particularly weak star beasts, so the option to absorb them as star pets didn't pop up.
For example, the White Ghoul group, although they were also Bronze-rank, they had a certain amount of strength. Jiang Xiao couldn't directly absorb them as star pets.
Jiang Xiao stood up and carefully studied its square head, which was also a rectangular parallelepiped. A small part of it was embedded in the square body, and the long head stuck out. There was an eye on each side. Could this thing only see to the sides?
How could it see forward?
Jiang Xiao placed one hand on its square head and looked towards the distance of the lake in the direction that a group of square ducks was swimming.
Under his palm, the square duck's square head suddenly turned half a circle, startling Jiang Xiao.
The dull, square eyes looked at the three people on its back, and then it turned its head back again.
"Hey? There are fish," Xia Yan suddenly said.
Jiang Xiao leaned down and looked, only to see shadows floating in the clear lake water.
Slowly, a group of silvery-white fish suddenly leaped out of the water, drawing a perfect arc. Near the apex, they suddenly became like pufferfish, their bellies suddenly enlarged and inflated, and two star power wings appeared on both sides of their round bellies, fluttering and floating forward in the air...
No, they weren't floating forward, they were looking for targets!
The square ducks on the lake were surrounded by floating silver round-ball fish.
This seemed to be one of the must-do activities.
Poof...
The round-ball fish sprayed a cloud of water droplets into the air. As the water droplets sprayed out, the round bodies deflated and fell back into the water again.
Han Jiangxue hurriedly protected the Swaying Bells in her arms. God testified that she almost used a wild wind to blow all these fish away...
Screams, laughter, accompanied by the sound of water droplets spraying and splashing, swirled in the clear and transparent garden lake.
The square ducks traveled very smoothly on the water and slowly approached the shore.
Jiang Xiao knocked on the square duck's head and jumped down, and then he, like everyone else, was stopped by a group of pigs.
A group of cute, big-nosed piglets, with a circle of... cotton around their necks?
Come to think of it, do they have necks?
...
At more than eight o'clock in the evening, Jiang Xiao and the others walked out of the last piece of mountain forest, under the farewell of a group of floating "lanterns." After the staff checked and confirmed that the Swaying Bells were correct, they finally walked out of this star beast amusement park.
Xia Yan bought a bag of star beast accessories, keychains, and small toys, but it could be seen that her favorite was still the Swaying Bells.
Jiang Xiao also saw the faint smile on Han Jiangxue's face. Regardless of how this star pet amusement park trip affected Jiang Xiao's state, Han Jiangxue should have relaxed quite a bit both physically and mentally.
Hard training, tight schedules, tense emotions... maybe she really needed this kind of relaxation.
Maybe tonight, Jiang Xiao would be dragged to watch competition videos and work overtime to study his opponents, but for Jiang Xiao, this trip was worth it if it had this effect on Han Jiangxue!
In fact, such a dreamlike journey had a great impact on Jiang Xiao as well. Just as he came out of the Star Beast Amusement Park, Jiang Xiao even felt that this world was a little unreal.
Under the same sky, people's lives were completely different.
On the way back, Jiang Xiao, sitting in the back seat of the bus, silently looked at his phone. On the screen was a photo taken by Goode.
It was in the last forest of the amusement park, under the night sky where small lantern star beasts floated and flickered...
The trio took off their masks. Jiang Xiao was in the middle, smiling happily and making a V-sign. Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan were on the left and right, each holding a Swaying Bell in their hands, their smiles so sweet.
Ling~ Ling~ A Swaying Bell floated past Jiang Xiao's eyes.
Beside him, Han Jiangxue leaned over, wordlessly, and gently rested her head on Jiang Xiao's shoulder.
Xia Yan sat in the back row, resting against the car window, and the thin string tied to her wrist gradually tightened.
Her Swaying Bell chased after Han Jiangxue's Swaying Bell, drifting in the car. The two little guys' heads were touching the car's ceiling, occasionally making soft bell sounds, chasing and playing...
Jiang Xiao shifted his gaze from the phone, turned his head, and gently took off her baseball cap, and then saw Han Jiangxue's sleeping face, and also saw her cascading black hair.
An idea popped into Jiang Xiao's mind: How can I make her stop worrying, so that she can always fall asleep peacefully like this?
Their fighting goals, the path they had taken, seemed to make all of this a luxury.
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips. After a long time, he lowered his head slightly and gently kissed her black hair.
In her sleep, Han Jiangxue seemed a little dissatisfied, frowning slightly and gently nudging his cheek.
Jiang Xiao turned his head and looked out of the window at the brightly lit streets. The flashing neon lights shone on his face, blended into his eyes, and reflected a flickering color.
