Volume 3 Chapter 1 My Heart is Flying
Perhaps because of the journey, Ma Long, who was on the "Flying Henan People", woke up very early and quietly walked out of the VIP cabin and walked to the deck alone./very literary/
The weather was getting colder at the end of September. Although the flight altitude of the floating boat was only three or four hundred meters, a thin layer of frost formed on the deck overnight.
On the railing at the edge of the deck, several cold firebirds who were migrating by boat buried their heads under the bright red feathers and were sleeping loudly. Perhaps they noticed the sound of Ma Long opening the cabin door. A cold firebird who was responsible for standing guard turned his head and glanced at Ma Long, but after sighting it, it did not make any warning sound, but quickly tilted its head back to the slightly red east.
For the cold firebird, creatures walking on the aerobatics are basically threatening them, because these big birds with fiery red feathers are regarded as symbols of peace on the journey.
I don’t know why, it is difficult to cause ships to be destroyed and killed by floating ships with cold firebirds, except for attacks during war and attacks by thieves during peacetime.
Therefore, neither the crew nor the passengers on the floating ship are the enemies of the Cold Firebird. Their enemies are various carnivorous pets or domestic monsters that may exist on the ship.
“So cold…”
The cold air outside the cabin made Ma Long shiver, so after he shouted that it was cold, he began to follow the vivid memories of the Earth World in his destination and do the eighth set of radio gymnastics that had long been abolished.
At the beginning, when the eighth set of radio gymnastics was promoted, Ma Long was still a half-year-old high school student. Now... Now, if we count by age, Ma Long has returned to the age of a half-year-old high school student.
After doing a complete set of radio gymnastics, Ma Long, who originally felt a little cold, became hot, and a scattered red color on the distant horizon was about to burst out...
So Ma Long, who was sweating slightly on his forehead, walked to the side of the floating boat, and supported the side of the boat with both hands and looked towards the east where the red sun was about to leap out.
It is no different from the earth world. The sun in this other world also rises and sets in the east and west. Only at night, a total of six** and a different moon will show the difference between this world and the earth world.
In Ma Long's pupils, not only is the rising red sun that is hiding infinite vitality in the eastern sky, but also the endless forest and the winding and winding white stone paths connecting Linhai Prefecture and Annuo Prefecture.
Due to the long-term aging of flight machines, the Henan people, which kept making loud noises, had already flew out of Linhai Prefecture and entered the neighboring Annuo Prefecture.
"Are you waiting for the sunrise, Mr. Liszt?"
A sentence with respectful inquiry emerged from behind Ma Long.
"Good morning, Captain Craig."
Ma Long turned around and said with a smile. In fact, before turning around, he knew that the person talking was the captain of the flying Henan people.
Captain Craig is the most experienced civilian aerial ship captain in White Sands City.
"You are right, Mr. Captain, I'm waiting for the sunrise."
Ma Long continued, and when he spoke, Ma Long reached out and touched the little head of a cold firebird that had completely woken up because of the conversation between the two.
"Gu—"
The cold firebird screamed, then spread its wings with at least two meters spread, and slid out with both legs.
Perhaps driven by the first flight of this cold firebird, there was a continuous flapping sound on the floating ship railings on both sides of the position where Ma Long stood, and then more than twenty cold firebirds were added in the sky that were very slapped and spread their wings soaring.
"When Mr. Lister was so old, I also liked to stand on the side of the floating boat to watch the sunrise, but now I... can't bear to watch it again."
Captain Craig, wearing the old and old captain uniform and boat-shaped captain, took another step forward while speaking, but did not stand side by side with Malone, but stood slightly less than Malone.
"I can't bear to watch it? Why?"
Captain Craig's words aroused Malone's interest.
"When I was a child, my family lived in the south of the Hongshui River. Every morning when the sun rose, there were always floating boats carrying iron ore from the Feiwu Lake Mine Cave flying through the sky. So I dreamed that one day I would become the captain of a super-large floating boat, and then freely drive the floating boat like a cold firebird and fly around the world......"
Captain Craig did not hide anything about Malone's questioning, but said in a tone full of remembrance.
"Is this the real reason why you named this ship the flying Henan people?"
Ma Long nodded. He felt that he had finally figured out why this name was called "Flying Henan People". This made him want to ask if Captain Craig was the name of the time traveler - it turns out that this is Henan, Africa, and Henan!
"You guessed it right. Mr. Liszt. I called this ship this name for this reason!" Captain Craig nodded and replied in a obviously complacent tone. But soon his tone returned to a low voice: "It's a pity that although this ship is called Feixiang Henan People, the expensive maintenance costs of floating ships have never come true. The farthest place I have ever been to is only St. Veran, and I am unknowingly fifty years old..."
Captain Craig is a bit of a mixed-race human. Over fifty years old means he is already in his twilight age, so he becomes afraid of watching the sunrise, because this will make him feel that the red sun is still energetic, but he is already as dead as the setting sun.
Just as Malone was about to say something to comfort Captain Craig, Captain Craig changed his tone again and said, "Mr. Lister, I really thank you! Because of your employment, I not only have the opportunity to fly to the capital Finico, but also go around the road to many places I have never been before!"
So Ma Long smiled, and he said in a very relaxed tone: "Maybe one day, Captain Craig, you will hire you to take me around the world by boat."
"This, this is not a joke, right?"
Captain Craig, who was in his fifties, was obviously in excitement. He had only come to say something to Malone out of gratitude, but Malone was completely beyond his expectations for saying such words.
I, I actually have the chance to travel around the world with this flying Henan people?!
"Not a joke."
Malone, who turned sideways to look at Captain Craig, continued to answer calmly.
Just as Ma Long spoke sideways, a red sun poked his head out from the east horizon with an unstoppable momentum, hitting the first ray of warm sunshine after dawn on Ma Long's face.
"I have seen Feiwu Lake! I have seen Feiwu Lake!"
From the high mast on the floating ship, a loud shout from the lookout came from the lookout.
