Every Day Is One Step Closer to Reality

Chapter 445: Legend of the Dragon

Reef beach.

After talking with Xiao Xin, Feng Yi had made a decision in his heart, but he did not tell Santos immediately.

Watching Santos and others studying marine iguanas, Feng Yi stood for a while, and then noticed a little girl who had been sitting there not far away with a drawing board and drawing.

The rescued little girl did as Santos said, just quietly staying not far away to draw.

Feng Yi observed her emotional information, and now she was still calm, so he divided a plate of snacks brought by Xiao Bing and took it over.

"Santos said your name is Rosa? Do you want some cookies?" Feng Yi walked over, pursed his lips and said nothing.

The little girl looked up at Feng Yi, pursed her lips and said nothing. She continued to hold the drawing board and drew carefully one stroke at a time.

She did not have too strong rejection emotions, perhaps because she knew that Feng Yi knew Santos and others.

Although she did not speak, Feng Yi judged from her emotional information that the child wanted to eat snacks, but she had experienced the kidnapping incident and was very wary of everything.

Feng Yi did not force it. He did not know how to get along with children and planned to leave. As for the small cookies on the plate, let Santos deliver them.

His eyes swept over her painting.

She seemed to be quite curious about the marine iguana. She painted the marine iguana on the reef, but due to her age and painting skills, the creature in the painting looked like a developing tadpole.

Feng Yi stood up and praised before leaving: "Oh, you are painting 'little monsters'? They look very imposing." There was a sense of stupidity in the ferociousness.

The little girl who was praised paused with her brush, looked up at Feng Yi again, and said in English with an accent: "I painted a dragon!"

Feng Yi: "...Oh, a dragon...I mean, it's a great painting!"

You are very creative to paint a dragon on a marine iguana.

After praising, he planned to leave.

This child has a rejection emotion, so it's better for him to leave.

The little girl moved her lips, lowered her eyes, tightened her brush, looked at the drawing board, and whispered: "Dragons really existed!"

Feng Yi, who was about to leave, sat back down after hearing this.

"Tell me more about it?"

Feng Yi's eyes were full of curiosity.

"Are there any stories about dragons in your village or family? Are you willing to share them with me?"

The little girl looked up at Feng Yi again, but this time was different from before. There was a little more light in her eyes.

"Do you believe in the existence of dragons?" she asked.

Feng Yi thought for a moment and replied: "I haven't seen one, but I believe there are some legendary creatures in the world."

The little girl stared at Feng Yi. She felt that Feng Yi really wanted to hear her story about dragons, not the perfunctory jokes or polite tolerance of adults.

This made her feel recognized and found an ally.

She was willing to share the story of dragons with this person.

The emotional information that was obviously rejected just now disappeared in an instant. "Dragons live in the sea. Sometimes they come ashore, but they prefer to stay in the sea. My ancestors always saw dragons in the sea!"

When talking about dragons, the little girl's tone was more powerful, not the timid whisper just now.

"Have your ancestors seen dragons? Do they look like the ones in your paintings?" Feng Yi asked.

The little girl looked at the group of black and gray marine iguanas on the reef in front with a slightly disdainful look.

"I don't know. I haven't seen them either. The dragons in the movies are like this."

The little girl took a paintbrush and added a pair of fish-like fins to the image she had just drawn based on the lizard.

Seeing this, Feng Yi knew that this child was still deeply influenced by movies and TV, and tended to like the appearance of a large lizard with wings.

"Didn't you say that your ancestors had seen dragons?" Feng Yi asked.

The little girl gave Feng Yi a look that said "you are so stupid".

"Dragons are powerful and mysterious, and they won't let humans see their full appearance easily! My ancestors only saw the tail of a dragon when they went out to sea to fish, and were saved by a dragon in a storm at sea. They can easily push a large ship!"

Speaking of topics of interest, the child seemed to have forgotten about being kidnapped, and his voice was ups and downs, causing Santos and others on the reef to look over here again and again.

"Dragons are terrible and strong! However, animals and plants like to live with them very much."

"Because, where they are, there is no disaster that cannot be overcome! They can call the wind and rain!"

"Around its nest, the air makes everything stronger."

"Even the most ferocious sea monsters dare not make noise there!"

Feng Yi: "..."

He rubbed his face uncomfortably. It sounded more and more like something that his fellow tribesmen might have done.

The little girl continued: "The dragon has piles of treasures and the largest pearls in the world, but even the most powerful warrior cannot steal a gold coin from its lair!" Feng Yi became more curious: "How do you know?" The little girl: "My ancestors said it! The warrior went to the dragon's lair on an isolated island and was thrown out. There were claw marks on his indestructible armor!" Feng Yi nodded. He agreed with her statement. The strength of the armor in ancient times was indeed not as good as a claw. The little girl was satisfied and continued to share the story passed down by her ancestors. "Then one day, the dragon left its lair and never came back. Those vicious sea monsters also disappeared. Some people said they were taken away by the dragon, and some said they were destroyed by humans." "Sea monster?" Feng Yi asked, "What does it look like?"

The little girl said without confidence: "Like, like a lizard?"

Feng Yi pointed to the reef beach, "You mean, like them?"

The only lizard that has such a close connection with the ocean is the marine iguana.

She really didn't want to admit it.

"They should be their relatives! For example, Godzilla!" the little girl said firmly.

Anyway, they are definitely not those lazy clowns on the rocks!

Feng Yi was thoughtful.

Thinking of the little python he kept in the zoo, Feng Yi thought that maybe one of his tribesmen had actually raised lizards in a similar way. If he was a little more reckless, maybe there really was one or several giant sea monsters in the sea. .

When he thought of this, Feng Yi became very worried. That little python shouldn't be too exaggerated, right?

"Were the dragons your ancestors saw very big?" Feng Yi asked.

"Of course! Otherwise, why would it be called a giant dragon?" the little girl said with certainty.

Although she has never seen it, in the stories passed down, such a strong dragon can suppress the sea monster, and it must be huge, right?

Feng Yi thought to himself: I know your ancestors have filters, but you can't close your eyes and brag. According to the energy resources provided by this planet, the "dragons" your ancestors can see are already stunted individuals.

The "giant" is nowhere to be found!

The resources simply cannot support that energy level!

However, if you see it without telling it, it’s better not to shatter children’s fantasies.

Moreover, no matter what you say, the tribesmen in ancient times were at least a little better developed than they are now.

Thinking of this, Feng Yi couldn't help but rub his face.

Resources are getting tighter.

One generation is worse than the other.

What to do!

"well!"

Feng Yi sighed.

Seeing the little girl looking over, Feng Yi said, "It's a pity that I can't see her now."

Upon hearing this, the little girl instantly empathized and sighed.

There was a moment of silence.

The little girl said: "But I believe they must exist somewhere in the world. It's just that we didn't find it!"

After saying that, he looked at Feng Yi again, hoping to get Feng Yi's approval.

Feng Yi also nodded affirmatively: "Yes! It exists!"

Ah, from a certain perspective, you have already seen it, little friend, but it is not as powerful as you imagined.

Feng Yi said: "Perhaps, the 'dragon' doesn't look like what you imagined."

"Maybe." The little girl looked at the sea in the distance, "In the stories handed down, the only thing in common is that the dragon has a very strong tail, which can break through the rough waves and break hard rocks! "

After telling the story, the little girl also finished her painting.

She took out the drawing paper and handed it to Feng Yi.

Feng Yi was surprised: "Given it to me?"

The little girl nodded.

It is rare to meet someone who is willing to listen to her stories about dragons and believe in the existence of dragons.

If the descendants of those who witnessed it don't believe in the "dragon", forget those stories. So, who will remember them?

Perhaps, at that time, the "dragon" really left.

Being remembered is also a kind of living.

She hopes that more people in this world know that they once existed.

Grandma said that faith can create miracles.

One more person, one more belief.

Feng Yi smiled and took it with both hands: "Thank you! I like it very much!"

"Oh, I have a collection. In it are paintings that I have collected from various places in the world, about dragons, giant snakes and other legendary deeds."

Feng Yi said, raised the painting in his hand and asked, "Can I also put this painting into my collection?"

The little girl's face turned red, and she clenched her fingers in shyness: "Collect it in the collection?! Am I that good at painting?!"

Feng Yi: "...of course!"

The little girl pursed her lips and nodded, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

He was obviously very happy to hear that his paintings were valued by the other party and put into a collection. The emotional message was positive excitement.

Before leaving, Feng Yi handed her a business card of the collection: "If you have the opportunity, you can go to Yangcheng in China. I invite you to visit my collection."

At this time, Santos also came over.

"Hey, it looks like you guys had a great time chatting."

"Yes, I also got a very special little gift." Feng Yi said with a smile.

Walking aside with Santos, Feng Yi waited for Santos' next words.

Santos just glanced at the painting. Like Feng Yi, he thought it was a child's painting of a marine iguana and didn't look at it again.

"The test results are out. They fell off the ship and are the same batch of marine iguanas we seized. The results are here and we will leave soon."

Santos is busy with affairs. He just came here today to check on the situation and solve it on the spot if possible.

Now it seems that the solution is okay.

Santos looked at Feng Yi: "So, what do you think about my suggestion?"

Feng Yi said: "Listen to your suggestion and let them stay for the time being."

Santos: "You're a good man."

Feng Yi: "You can praise me in another way."

Santos: "Your professionalism is admirable."

Feng Yi: "Forget it, when will you leave?"

Santos: "Don't be so ruthless. We can keep in touch. Your communication station has been set up very well. Gray will contact the person in charge here again after a while to learn about the situation."

Feng Yi: "Send a text message. If it's not something very important, don't use voice communication. This employee on my island has some social phobia and may be a little lacking in voice expression."

Santos: "Understood. Then use a text message."

After talking to Feng Yi about the marine iguana, Santos was indeed as busy as he said, and soon took people away by plane.

On the plane leaving the island.

Santos said to Gray: "In a few days, you can contact the person in charge here to see if you can have some deeper friendly exchanges and experience exchanges."

Gray understood. Oh, go and ask questions.

"Didn't you say that the employee has social phobia?" Gray asked.

"There are many kinds of social phobia. Some social phobias, whether in real life or on the virtual network, are silent and unwilling to communicate with others.

"And some social phobias, as long as they are not facing people, or as long as they are on the Internet, they can chat with a keyboard and can make another Mariana Trench with their mouth cannons on the keyboard!

"The young man guarding the island doesn't communicate much with others, but I see he talks a lot with Feng Yi. Maybe he's the type who can talk about the Mariana Trench?"

Gray also agreed with him, but...

"Santos, what else are you thinking?"

"I'm just here to solve the problem." Santos said.

"No, from what I know about you, you must have other ideas."

"A win-win situation, what do you think?"

"Your attitude towards Feng Yi is different. Although this expert is indeed very famous and rich recently, this is not like your usual style. Too... friendly."

"Well, do you still remember his identity as a shareholder of the Ancestral Factory? The universal antidote of the Ancestral Factory is really easy to use."

When it comes to this, Gray also understands.

The universal antidote of the Ancestral Factory saved the life of an employee of their special dispatch team.

Under the premise of not violating principles, it is indeed possible to be more friendly.

Gray decided to contact the socially anxious island guard on the island more often.

On Feng Yi's island.

After Santos and his group left, the island returned to peace.

Xiao Ren did not appear in front of those people. He thought that at this stage, it was better not to contact the people of the special investigation team of the Joint Security Bureau. No matter whether they looked friendly or cold, their eyesight and intuition were very strong.

In order to avoid affecting the subsequent work, they temporarily avoided it.

Things here have been dealt with, and they are going back.

Before leaving the island, Feng Yi stood not far from the reef beach, looking at the lizards that crawled from the sea to the rocks.

If, in the story told by the little girl, the monster brought by the "dragon" is really a marine iguana, the difference is too big.

The monster in the story: Roar - super fierce!

The little monster now: Lie down, change your posture and continue to lie down.

The update time in the next few days will not be very stable, it may be from 8 am to 24 pm.

Trying to adjust the update rhythm.

My mentality is inflated, and I want to try what the rhythm of double updates is.

I hope it will succeed!
