Chapter 4 Telesthesia
MK’s voice was incomparably clear like the white snow on the mountains.
His tone and look were full of confidence, which appeared more attractive. He was a human-like figure who had his own halo, wasn’t he?
His eyes were the most fascinating eyes that Long Hao had ever seen.
Long Xi met his gaze and her heart could not help but tremble involuntarily.
His eyes had a kind of fatal appeal. If she looked into his eyes for three seconds, she would fall for his charm and would be unable to extricate herself from it. His eyes seemed to have a magical power that could see through people’s hearts so that Long Xi felt that she could not hide any thoughts in front of them.
“Why did you make the spacecraft into the shape of a coffin? Shouldn’t the spacecraft be like a UFO?” Long Xi asked curiously.
“Our planet ships are all designed in this shape. We call them Flying Coffins. The UFO in the shape of a flying saucer is probably a spaceship of other planets. Our spacecraft is like a coffin, which is related to our funeral custom. There are several satellites on our planet. Among them, Satellite No. 1 is the largest. It is called Star Tomb which is our final destination. The people of our planet will put themselves into Flying Coffins before they die, set up the automatic flight mode, and let Flying Coffins take their bodies to Star Tomb,” MK said.
“Star Tomb? It sounds very poetic! Your mech? The one in platinum color? Where is it?” Long Xi asked.
“Oh, my mech is called MK7. It is the seventh generation of the mech that I invented. It has a stealth function. In fact, it is standing behind me now, but you can’t see it with the naked eye,” MK said.
“Well, I am sorry, do you have food and water? My food has run out and I’ve been hungry for a few days. I am thirsty!” MK scratched his head and said awkwardly.
“Yes, here you are.” Long Xi took out a roujiamo and a can of cola from the bag. Fortunately, the cola was bottled in a can. If it had been a glass bottle, it would have been broken. She had always been helpful, even if this person was an alien.
Moreover, this alien was quite friendly to her, so she was not afraid now.
MK took the food, and the head of his mech had a rectangular place, revealing nice but pale lips.
He drank a bottle of cola in one breath and began to gulp the roujiamo.
“The food on your planet is delicious!” said MK, who had the last bite of meat and cola.
“Is your food not like this?” she asked.
“We often eat compressed nutrition tablets which are applied to different ages. It is enough to eat one tablet a day. The taste is really not good, but it is convenient and fast,” he said.
MK burped with satisfaction and said with a smile, “Sorry, I just pissed you off. So I will perform a magic trick, as a small reward for you.”
Long Xi said, “What’s the big deal of performing magic tricks? I can also do it.”
MK asked lazily, “Can you do a magic trick of making a butterfly?”
“Butterfly?” Long Xi subconsciously touched the butterfly-shaped birthmark on her face and said, “I can’t do this.”
“Do you not like this butterfly birthmark? In fact, I still feel it’s very special,” he said.
“Are you laughing at me?” She was even angrier. In fact, she did not think that this birthmark was ugly, but people often ridiculed her and said she was an ugly monster, so she really disliked this birthmark.
“No, I really think that it’s special. Come, I will show you my performance. Are you ready?” He said with a smile. His eyes seemed to condense all the stars in the sky, making Long Xi’s heart miss a beat.
He reached out one hand and touched her birthmark with his index finger. Long Xi felt that his hand was wet and smooth, like applying aloe vera cream to her.
Then he waved his hand and a bubble like a football appeared on his hand.
This bubble was not colorless, but champagne-colored and transparent.
The bubble floated toward Long Xi and it emitted the brilliance of the rainbow.
Usually, the bubbles were beautiful but fragile, but when the bubble landed on Long Xi’s hand, it did not break.
MK touched the bubble lightly with his finger. Then the bubble burst and a champagne-colored scarf appeared on Long Xi’s hand.
Long Xi was astonished. She could do magic tricks and knew a lot of tips about it. However, she did not know how MK turned the bubble into a scarf, even though she was so close to him.
MK waved the silk scarf and then it “changed” into a champagne-colored rose.
The champagne-colored rose was half-opened. As MK blew on it, the rose was in full bloom in a flash.
MK breathed on it again. Then its petals faded one by one.
Long Xi couldn’t help but sigh, “Do you want to express that flowers bloom and fade in a while and that life is fragile?”
MK nodded slightly. He seemed to be very happy that Long Xi understood the philosophy expressed by this little magic.
He touched Long Xi’s hair with his right hand and the black and blue striped bowknot which was tied to her hair appeared on his hand in an instant.
He put the bowknot on her hands and motioned her to close her hands.
Then he touched her hands and then signaled her to open it.
Long Xi opened her hands. A black butterfly with royal blue spotted marks flew out and landed on MK’s hand.
MK waved his hand and the butterfly disappeared. A butterfly-shaped purple-red spot appeared on his wrist, exactly the same as the birthmark on Long Xi’s face.
Then the spot gradually disappeared.
“It’s amazing!” Long Xi smiled and asked, “How did you do it?”
“Look at it.” MK took out a mirror from nowhere and let Long Xi have a look at her face.
The birthmark on Long Xi’s face actually disappeared!
Long Xi was so excited that she burst into tears. She couldn’t believe her eyes. “Do you have supernatural powers?”
“This is the proposal gift I gave you.” MK’s voice sounded a bit shy.
“Thank you. Thank you very much! Hey? Well? What did you say? A proposal gift?” Long Xi was stunned.
“Yes! I want to marry you,” MK said.
“Can you make it clear? Don’t surprise me.” She did not know why she blushed.
“Well, then to be blunt, on the third day I was trapped in the tunnel, I swore to my deceased parents that whoever saved me, if it was a man, I would become his sworn brother; if it was a woman, I would marry her. You saved me, so I want to marry you,” MK replied.
