Chapter 183: , (II) The Alien Girl Says: '
Liu Guozong
The alien girl said to the city boy, 'Please close your eyes and follow me. Under no circumstances open your eyes to look at the world.'
The city boy, hearing the alien girl's words, was utterly puzzled and asked, 'Why?'
'Please don't ask me why; I just want you to close your eyes and follow me. Then you will understand,' the alien girl said.
At this point the city boy had no choice: anyway, things are as they are, life or death is up to you!
'Okay!' the city boy said,
Thus, the alien girl took the city boy's hand and walked forward, forward……
No one knew how much time had passed.
The alien girl said to the city boy, 'You can open your eyes now.'
When the city boy opened his eyes, what he saw was no longer verdant mountains and clear waters, with lush trees and red flowers; all he saw was an endless expanse, and there was not a trace of earthly scenery left.
'Where have I arrived?' the city boy said.
'You have already arrived at my home on the moon,' said the alien girl.
'Ah! I've reached the moon? Is this a dream?' the boy exclaimed in astonishment.
'This is not a dream; this is reality,' the alien girl said.
'You weren't just taking me into your cave dwelling a moment ago? How did we suddenly get to the moon?'
'Yes, just now I said I was taking you into my cave dwelling. But the green mountains you saw were not real mountains; they were my spacecraft,' the alien girl said.
'Not a mountain? It's your spacecraft? Is this mythology?' the boy exclaimed even more astonished.
'It's not mythology, it's reality. The reality is that you have come to the moon; here you must obey me in everything. Do not take a single wrong step, or else you will fall into the vast void of space, plunge into an abyss of ten thousand fathoms, leaving no trace.' The alien girl warned the city boy.
Hearing the alien girl's words, the city boy was frightened dumbstruck.
'However, you need not worry excessively; as long as you obey honestly, living here with me is safer and more reliable than living on Earth. Here you need not fear collisions with other planets; the air is fully purified and formulated according to bodily needs, with no pollution whatsoever. Only the food is special—not the grains, vegetables, and fruits that earthlings eat, but stone.'
'Stone? How can stone be eaten?' the city boy curiously interrupted the alien girl.
'Yes, it's stone. But the stone I speak of is not the stone you have on Earth,'
'What kind of stone is it then?' the city boy asked,
'I mean stone that has been specially processed, what you earthlings call an elixir of immortality. Eating such stone can make one live forever.'
'Eating stone can make one live forever? What kind of stone is this?' the city boy became even more astonished.
The alien girl said: '………'
