A wisp of gray gauze floated out from between Wang Ran's eyebrows. This wisp of gauze exuded a unique charm and protected Wang Ran's body in the chaotic airflow.
This is the divinity condensed by Wang Ran.
Wang Ran looked at the slightly distant world and fell into silence.
"I take that back."
He murmured.
These shoes are not just for show, at least not for him.
Even though he was standing in the vast ocean of the world, he felt as if he was stepping on something. As long as he exerted a little more strength, he would be able to "jump" up.
But this is already the world sea.
If you step hard in the world, you will come to the world sea. So what will happen if you step hard in the world sea
Wang Ran suddenly felt an impulse in his heart.
If he stepped hard in the World Sea, would he float far away in the World Sea, or would he go from the inside of the World Sea to the outside of the World Sea just like he went from the inside of the World Sea to the outside of the World Sea
Wang Ran was eager to verify this idea.
[Start real-time simulation]
[You step hard]
Wang Ran held his breath.
You Leaped Out of the World Ocean
"Have we really left the World Sea?!"
Wang Ran was surprised.
He just did a simulation with the idea of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that he would be really surprised. The Monkey King's Lotus Silk Cloud-Stepping Shoes actually helped him jump out of the World Sea!
What is outside the sea
During the last doomsday crisis, Wang Ran spent countless hours in the library of the Mordor believers, reading countless materials, but there was no information that mentioned anything outside the World Sea.
The few sentences he spoke were vague, and it seemed that even Morgan didn't know what was happening outside the world.
Oh, Great Sage! My Great Sage!
It has to be you!
At this time, the text continues to scroll down.
You lose your ability to perceive
[With the reminder of the "Savior Simulator", you realize that you need to use divinity to replace your original sensory organs]
Outside the sea, eyes and ears are useless.
[You burned the only trace of divinity]
[You got a ray of light]
Wang Ran perked up.
He currently only has a wisp of divinity, which means he can only take a glimpse of the scene outside the World Sea.
[You are shocked by everything you see]
[You discover that the World Ocean is just a small puddle on the verge of drying up. You notice that there are many similar puddles nearby. You see a "giant" drinking water not far away.]
[Divinity Burns Out]
You lose your sense of the outside world
[You have forgotten what you just saw and heard]
The Giant Has Noticed You
You are annihilated in His sight
[Simulation ends]
Wang Ran fell silent.
After a while, he muttered to himself with a dry mouth: "The World Ocean is just a small puddle, and it is a small puddle that is on the verge of drying up..."
He was mentally prepared. If there was another world outside the World Sea, the creatures living in that world would definitely be much stronger than those who could not leave the World Sea.
But he didn't expect the world sea to be so unbearable!
And it's dangerous.
Not only is the river itself on the verge of drying up, but there is also a giant drinking water nearby.
He suddenly felt a great sense of urgency.
The Earth is still in this World Sea. He can never allow the World Sea to dry up, and even less can he allow the giants outside the World Sea to drink the World Sea into their stomachs.
Wang Ran's eyes flashed with ferocity.
[Start real-time simulation]
[You activated "Time and Space Displacement"]
[You activated "The man with his own background music"]
You are out of the protection of divinity
[You dealt with it twice]
[You are in danger of death under the turbulence of the world sea]
[You activated the "Human Jinx"]
That giant is too dangerous.
Perhaps He would not drink up the world sea where Wang Ran was. After all, this world sea was almost drying up. But Wang Ran would not leave his fate in the hands of others in vain.
He wanted to kill the giant.
At least drive Him away.
[You designate the giant to be unlucky]
[You are facing life-threatening situations]
[The giant will immediately suffer bad luck]
[The giant was already seriously injured. When doom came, he could only wail in despair.]
Already seriously injured
Wang Ran suddenly realized something.
Both the "giant" and the "puddle" refer to him. So what is the "puddle" to the "giant"
Maybe just a tiny drop of water
The giant lay on the ground in a mess, licking a drop of water, and was obviously in a bad condition.
[Driven by bad luck, the giant exhaled his last breath, fell down helplessly, and entered the irreversible countdown to death]
[You kick lightly]
[You dragged your severely injured body back to the world just now]
[You are unconscious]
[Simulation ends]
Wang Ran thought for two seconds.
Although he didn't know why the giant was seriously injured, he knew that the giant would need a lot of energy to recover.
That's why the giant lay on the ground licking the water.
But the giant is so huge that one or two puddles of water would certainly not satisfy him. If he is not stopped, he will most likely lick up the world sea where he is.
He has to take action.
Wang Ran made up his mind.
Time and space replacement!
An indescribable strange feeling filled his heart, and in an instant, he felt that he had held a lot of power.
[The man with his own BGM] starts!
“I work hard to grow vegetables~”
"You secretly came to destroy ~"
"Let me discover~"
"Happy Farm is full of pests and diseases~"
A funny melody sounded deep in Wang Ran’s mind.
Ah this!
If there is no song in the world ocean, then let's play brainworms for him
The corner of Wang Ran's mouth twitched, but he didn't have time to dwell on it, because the giant was seriously injured now, but it might be different after he licked a few more gulps of water.
He gritted his teeth and retracted his divinity into his brows.
A terrifying energy storm hit him in the face. He managed to deal with it twice in a daze, and then was swept into it.
Grass! Grass! Grass!
The energy storm was like countless sharp knives, easily cutting off a layer of Wang Ran's flesh.
Wang Ran was in so much pain that he was incoherent.
Although he had resolved three doomsday crises, he had never experienced any decent battles in reality, and his ability to endure pain was almost zero. He could not bear the pain that was comparable to lingchi.
His body kept switching between white bones and bloody flesh.
The self-healing ability of [Salamander Constitution] is equal to the speed at which his body is damaged, but he can feel that his energy is being consumed rapidly.
If this continues, he will surely die.
Wang Ran clenched his teeth.
[Human jinx], start!
Having done this, he kicked lightly.
In a trance, he felt the light and shadows shaking in front of his eyes, and then he fell heavily to the ground, unconscious.
"Old man! Come quickly!"
"Someone fell into our haystack!"
…
Chi'an County was the fief of Chi'an Jun.
In the early years when Chi Anjun was still alive, the officials and people of Chi An County got along well with each other and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Later, Chi Anjun was sentenced to death by imperial decree.
The atmosphere in Chi'an County became worse and worse. Today, more than a decade later, the officials of Chi'an County are corrupt, bandits are rampant in the vicinity, and it has become a decadent place. Officials with a little bit of ideals are unwilling to come here.
"Old man Chai, it's time to pay the taxes for the next ten years."
On this day, the tax collector came to a small courtyard.
While other places collect taxes for the current year, Chi'an County collects taxes for the next ten years. To be precise, it is not the next ten years, but the taxes from the next ten years to the next ten years.
Because the first ten years were taken away by the previous county magistrate.
Old Man Chai walked out of the courtyard unsteadily, leaning on a cane.
"well… "
"My Lords, can you please delay the payment of taxes?"
"There's a patient in my house."
"He has been in a coma for quite some time. All the money has been used to buy medicine for him. I really can't get it out for the time being."
The officials' attitude was extremely arrogant.
"Don't play dumb with me!"
"Everyone knows that your Chai family was the servant of the traitor Chi Anjun. Other families can pay, but you can't?"
Old Man Chai bowed his head and said, "My two lords..."
"Shut up! Take the money!"
The official pushed Old Man Chai hard.
Old Man Chai's thin body hit the wall like a straw hitting a pile of bricks, bounced lightly, and then let out a cry of pain.
The official said disdainfully: "Go get the money, or you'll go to jail!"
Old Man Chai turned around with a gloomy look in his eyes.
He walked into the house, holding on to the wall, and after a while came out carrying a heavy purse.
He handed the purse to the official in silence.
The official opened the money bag and counted it carefully.
"That's the right number!"
"That's a lot!"
"Your taxes have been paid!"
The official nodded with satisfaction.
Old Man Chai turned around and was about to leave.
"Stop!" the official called him, "Where are ours?"
Old Man Chai was stunned.
The official said confidently: "We two came here in the hot sun to collect your taxes, why don't you give us a little reward?"
Reward
Old Man Chai was very angry.
But he had no choice but to take out two small strings of copper coins from his pocket.
"This is a gift to you two officials."
He swallowed his anger and said.
"Haha! That's more like it!"
The officials took the money and left without much delay, because they still had to collect taxes from other families. Many families had strong male adults, so collecting taxes was very troublesome.
Old Man Chai closed the door, turned around and walked back to the room.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As soon as he sat down, the door was knocked again.
Old Man Chai walked out with a nervous look on his face to open the door, wondering who was knocking on his door this time.
"Who is it?"
he asked through the door.
"Black Wind Mansion, accept this year's offerings!"
Old Man Chai’s face fell.
He opened the door and saw two people covered with black veils.
He said cautiously, "Master of the Black Wind House, can we delay this year's tribute? The government just collected ten years of taxes, and the tax collector just left. My family is really out of money."
The Black Wind Mansion is the largest bandit gang in the vicinity.
"Damn it, we're late!"
"Are these officials full of fat? They have been collecting taxes for ten years, aren't they afraid of a rebellion by the people?"
The robber's tone was filled with anger.
Old man Chai didn't dare to say a word.
"In that case, I'll give you sixty days."
The older bandit said, "We will come back to collect this year's tribute in sixty days. If you can't pay it by then, don't blame us in the Black Wind Mansion for being ruthless!"
Old Man Chai nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
The older robber asked again, "Where did the tax collector go?"
Old Man Chai pointed them in the direction.
"Let's go and kill the tax collectors!"
"good!"
The two robbers left with murderous intent.
Old Man Chai closed the door and sighed.
These days, officials are more cruel than robbers.
The robbers only collected one year's tribute at a time, and if they couldn't collect enough, they gave them 60 days to raise the money. They were actually more merciful than the officials.
Old Man Chai turned around slowly.
But this time, before he even entered the house, the door was knocked again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Old Man Chai asked fearfully, "Who is it?"
"Open the door! Collect taxes!"
“Ten years of taxes!”
Old Man Chai was confused.
Why are there another group of tax collectors here? Didn’t he just pay the tax
"Sir! I just paid my taxes!"
he shouted through the door.
"Maybe someone went to the wrong place and ran to our territory."
"We don't care about that."
“You have to pay us the taxes!”
"Or else go to jail!"
"Choose for yourself!"
Pay taxes for another ten years
Old man Chai only felt his eyes go dark and his thin body was shaking.
