Chapter 51 High Altitude Adventures

If someone asked Zheng Qing how he felt at an altitude of 10,000 meters.

Zheng Qing would answer, "It's hot and cold."

Bloating is because the air pressure at high altitude is extremely low, and the air pressure inside the human body is very high. The two are in conflict, causing the whole person to feel like being inflated.

Zheng Qing had no experience of pregnancy, but at this moment, with the violent bulging feeling in his abdominal cavity, he felt that he was about to give birth. There were also throbbing pains in his ears, as if something was going to squeeze through his eardrums and come out in the next second.

As for the coldness, it is because the surface radiation heat received at high altitude is less. This geographical knowledge is known to Zheng Qing Junior High School.

Therefore, when the magical afterbirth that originally covered his body was shattered, Zheng Qing first felt that his whole body had 'swelled' several times, and then his exposed wrists, neck, and cheeks seemed to have been soaked in a bucket of dry ice, and his hair was stinging with coldness. numb. So when the vines in front of him dragged him down, the wizard was worried that he would be like a frozen piece of meat, torn into pieces by the violent pulling force.

"Ge...kaka..."

The young wizard tried to recite two more binding spells to wrap himself up a little warmer. But the huge pressure difference and extremely low temperature made him feel like his nose was about to explode. His teeth were chattering from the cold, and he could hardly recite a complete spell.

After a moment of stalemate - it could be only a few seconds, or it could be more than ten seconds, in short it is a period of time that is actually very short, but feels to Zheng Qing to be very long - the young wizards wrapped in a string of vine balls, Pulled by gravity, he plunged into the black-gray rolling sea of ​​clouds.

Soaked.

This was Zheng Qing's first impression of Yunhai.

In a daze, he was even a little unsure whether he was in the sky or really fell into the sea.

Huge water balls mixed with hailstones hit the vine ball that suddenly broke in one after another, making a dull crackling sound. The moist air penetrated through the gaps between the vines, giving Zheng Qing a feeling of suffocation as if he had fallen into the water. , he had to work hard to lower his breathing rate to ensure that he would not be 'drowned' by the water coming from all directions.

In addition to water, there is also wind.

The power that can make the boundless sea of ​​clouds roll is too huge for Zheng Qing and others. The strong wind seemed to turn into a giant's hand, carrying the string of vine balls that looked particularly small in the sea of ​​clouds, and throwing them around at will. Losing the control of the flying spell, Zheng Qing felt that he had completely lost his sense of direction and was spinning in the air like a top.

For a moment, he felt like he was not falling, but flying upwards.

Of course, everything - whether it is cold, pain, water vapor, strong wind, or disorienting confusion - all these discomforts, after the lightning appears, immediately retreat to a corner where boys can hardly detect it. inside.

A blue-white electric arc appeared silently outside the vine ball, and Zheng Qing almost immediately smelled the burnt smell of the vines.

When observing above the sea of ​​clouds, he always used the word "slender" to describe the lightning he saw. But when he really went deep into the sea of ​​clouds and faced those lightnings, he realized that the slender lightnings looked so thick and scary from a distance.

Blue-white arcs of several meters, more than ten meters, or even tens of meters long were pulled into various strange postures in the strong wind and 'heavy rain'. Zheng Qing bet that he saw several white horses chasing and playing in those lightning bolts. pony.

"It's over!!"

"Ouch! Ouch!!"

Fatty Xin's screams and Li Meng's excited screams could be heard in his ears. Looking down through the gaps between the vines, Zheng Qing could vaguely see a giant dragon condensed with lightning. It was spreading its teeth and claws, coming from the depths of the sea of ​​clouds. Jump out and rush straight towards their bunch of 'little fruits'.

Zheng Qing's face turned pale and he subconsciously grabbed the Dharma book hanging on his waist.

But the rapid fall and violent rotation made it difficult for him to maintain balance. The half-wet Dharma book slipped through the fingertips of the young public-funded student several times, then spun and fell behind him again.

Zheng Qing felt that his ears were hurting more and more.

The dragon is getting closer.

The young public-funded student hanging at the end could vaguely see its open mouth, the rows of huge overturned fangs, and the manes of different lengths on the dragon's back that were surrounded by jumping lightning.

But he couldn't hear the howl of the electric dragon.

The boy touched his cold earlobe and was suddenly stunned for a moment. He subconsciously raised his hand and formed a magic formula in front of his eyes. Immediately, a stream of light cyan light burst out from his left ear, swelled in the wind, and in an instant turned into a green snake with different-colored eyes as thick as an arm. The left eye was as dark blue as water, and the right eye was as red as jade. Both eyes opened and closed. , the stars are overflowing.

Green Snake seems to like the environment in the sea of ​​clouds very much.

It raised its head, neighed silently, and its eyes were full of joy. The electric dragon that was charging towards the vine ball seemed to have seen some terrible monster. It screamed and stopped with all its strength before it had time to dodge. Then the whole dragon suddenly exploded into thousands of lightnings that stretched for several kilometers and fled in all directions.

The green snake tilted its head and squinted at the fleeing lightning. The snake's tail behind it swayed slightly and suddenly stretched out, turning into a huge shadow that was unknown how long and towering like a mountain. It gathered, circled, and closed on the spot. Then he captured the thousands of lightnings that looked like chrysanthemums blooming, and only a few escaped.

The tip of the snake's tail was manipulated as flexibly as an elephant's trunk, and in an instant, it squeezed the electric light into a small ball and stuffed it into its mouth.

belch.

It sighed contentedly and sprayed out a ball of golden rays of light. The rays of light were like a big hand, easily smoothing the boundless waves that rolled up after the dragon disappeared.

For a time, the sea of ​​clouds where the vine ball was located was cleared, thunder and lightning broke out, hail broke out, and even the raging winds lost their energy and became gentle and shy.

Zheng Qing stared at this scene blankly, feeling that the blue scales on its body seemed to become more shiny and smooth.

Just like that, the small string of five vine balls fell downwards without any hindrance.

…

…

When the young wizards of the Exoneration Hunting Team were lining up in a long snake formation to cross the clouds.

Very far above them, in the plane where these young wizards had stayed, Mr. Hilda Don Alfonso, the practical lecturer of Astronomy Class 08-1, pulled the rope net hanging from the ceiling and closed the belly of the cabin. After the big doors, he once again struggled to get through the small door at the end of the cabin and came to the cab.

There was a pink rabbit sitting on the seat in the cockpit, moving around in a hurry, making Hilda's eyes jump.

"Do you need my help?" the wizard said decisively, looking very enthusiastic: "You know, I have been a practical class teacher for a long time, and I am best at these alchemy gadgets..."

"No!"

The two long ears on the rabbit's head swayed at a wide angle. For the nth time, he clearly rejected the teaching assistant's kindness and replied quickly: "Thank you... but this is my job."

Hilda folded her arms, leaned against the door, looked at the front window of the cockpit melancholy, and sighed silently.

Outside the front window, there was no blue sky and white clouds, but an endless expanse of billowing colors.
