The weather indicator behind Giovanni unknowingly turned into a triangle, flickering on and off like fireflies.The triangle became clearer and clearer, and finally stood motionless on the iron-blue sky field.The triangle mark is like a newly forged steel plate, standing neatly in the sky field. At this moment, a strange cry came from nowhere: "The Yinhe Railway Station has arrived, the Yinhe Railway Station!" The eyes suddenly became bright, as if the light of hundreds of millions of firefly squids turned into fossils at the same time and sank into the entire sky .Another example is that a gem dealer hides gems in order to increase the price of gems, but someone knocks them to the ground, just like a goddess scattering flowers.Giovanni only felt that his eyes were full of jewels, and he kept rubbing his eyes with his hands.

When he woke up, he found that he was already sitting on the rattling little train just now, and the wheels kept moving forward.That's right, I was really sitting in the carriage of the night light rail line with rows of small yellow light bulbs on, looking out the window.The seats wrapped in blue velvet in the carriage were almost empty.On the gray wall opposite, a brass wall lamp carved into the shape of two peony flowers was lit. On the seat immediately in front of Giovanni sat a tall boy, his coat was dripping wet, looking out of the window to admire the view along the road.No matter how he looked at it, Giovanni felt that the child's shoulders were very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.He couldn't help but want to ask what happened.When he wanted to poke his head out from here, the child suddenly withdrew his head and looked at him.

It was none other than Corbenera.Giovanni wanted to ask: Corbenera, so you were here a long time ago! But Corbenera spoke first: "They chased for a long time, but they still didn't catch this train. Zanelli ran the fastest, but he was still a step late." Giovanni thought to himself: We both agreed to come out together.But he said, "Do you want to wait for them?" Corbeneira replied: "No. Zanelli has gone home, his father has taken him." Speaking of this, Corbenera's face turned pale for some reason, as if she was suffering from something.Giovanni also seemed to have forgotten something somewhere, and remained silent with a strange mood.After a while, Corbenella looked out the window, changed his expression, and said with great interest:

"Oops, I forgot to bring the water bottle. I also forgot the picture book. But it doesn't matter, the swan station is coming. I am fascinated by the swan, no matter where she flies, I can see it." At this time, Corbeneira took out a map that looked like a disc, and kept turning it to check it.There is really a railway line on it along the left bank of the white Tianhe River, leading to the south.That map is really wonderful, with a dark night-like surface, stations, triangles, springs and forests, sprinkled with colorful light beams. Giovanni seemed to have seen this map somewhere.

"Where did you buy this map? Is it obsidian?" Giovanni asked. "I asked for it on the platform of Yinhe Station, didn't you ask for one?" "Ah, the station I passed just now is Yinhe Railway Station? This is where we are now, right?" Giovanni asked, pointing to the north marked "Swan Station". "Yes. Look, the light on this river bank is the silver light of a moonlit night, right?" Giovanni looked there, and saw a piece of miscanthus in the silver sky on the white and bright bank of the Milky Way, swaying with the wind, setting off a cloud. sheet of waves.

"That's not moonlight. It looks like a vast expanse of glass because of the radiance of the Milky Way." Giovanni said ecstatically, stomping on the floor, sticking his head out of the window, blowing the high-pitched "star cable" whistle, and desperately Want to raise the tone.Giovanni wanted to take a closer look at the Tianhe water.At first, he felt that it was hazy there, as if there was nothing there.But later, when he looked at it with his heart, he seemed to feel that the clear river water was more crystal clear than glass and more transparent than hydrogen gas.Sometimes it may be an accidental illusion of the naked eye, and you can even see a trace of purple ripples in the Tianhe River, like thousands of rainbows, rolling and torrenting.There are phosphorescent triangular marks all over the field, towering dazzlingly above the clouds.The triangle mark is far smaller and near larger.

The triangular marks in the distance are striking orange and yellow; the nearby ones emit silvery white light, and feel a little hazy.There are triangles, squares, lightning bolts and chains, all of which are varied and glowing in the wilderness.Giovanni's heart was pounding, and he shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up.At the same time, the colorful triangular marks on the entire field sighed and breathed almost simultaneously, shaking and trembling one after another. "I have really come to the field in the sky." Giovanni sighed. "Strange, why doesn't this train use coal?" Giovanni stretched out his left hand and asked forward.

"Alcohol or electricity?" Corbenera said. From somewhere in the distance, there was a humming sound like a cello, as if answering this question: "The trains here don't use steam or electricity. They move because of course they should. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang bang, that's because you've been used to the sound of trains. .” "I seem to have heard this sound many times." "I've heard it in the woods and by the river." Bang bang bang bang, that beautiful little train is moving forward bravely in the water of the Tianhe River, in the silver light of the triangle point, following the waves of miscanthus in the sky.

"Ah, the gentian flowers are blooming, and it's already late autumn." Corbenera pointed out the window and sighed. Among the low zoysias on both sides of the railway track, clusters of purple gentian flowers like moonstone carvings are blooming, graceful and graceful. "I'll jump down, pick one of it, and then come up again," said Giovanni enthusiastically. "It's already too late, it's too late!" Before Corbenela could finish her sentence, another colorful gentian flower also flashed playfully. Afterwards, pieces of gentian corollas with yellow stamens surged forward and back like raindrops, and then passed away before the eyes.

The ranks of the triangular marks are sometimes surrounded by smoke, sometimes dazzling, and finally revealing a shining light...
