Chapter 247 What's the difference between this and courting death?!

In the Great Flame Kingdom, the people everywhere were also filled with astonishment; they had never seen anything like it before.

In their view, it was a game that looked like a suicide mission.

[Commoner Wang Ma: Oh my god! That ship is flying! Flying! My legs went weak just watching it, and the First Princess is even laughing up there! Such courage, truly inherited from Lord Ye!]

[Commoner Sun Fang: What is this thing?! This isn't a boat! Boats float on water, this thing swings in the air! Why would those little kids want to play with this? Aren't they scared?!]

[Commoner Zhao Qiang: Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! That boat was swinging so high, almost parallel to the ground, and then it suddenly plummeted down... How terrifying would that be!?]

[Commoner: Good heavens! How can there be toys that throw people into the air?! This... how is this any different from suicide?!]

……

When Duoduo got off the pirate ship, her legs felt a little weak.

The moment her shoe sole touched the ground, her knees bent uncontrollably, and she sank down as if she had stepped on a non-existent step.

Aunt Li, who was behind her, quickly caught her. Then Aunt Li squatted down, supporting her back with one hand and putting the other hand under her legs, intending to pick her up.

Duoduo pulled her hand away from Aunt Li's shoulder and shook it vigorously, clearly indicating her refusal.

Helpless, Aunt Li had no choice but to give up hugging her and instead support her.

With one hand supporting Aunt Li's arm and the other gripping the metal railing beside her, Duoduo managed to take several steps before finally regaining her balance.

I can walk slowly on my own now, but my knees still tremble a little when I walk.

But he still kept putting on a brave face.

The first thing Duoduo did after she stood firm was to straighten her back and, with her nostrils pointing towards the sky, announce:

"I told you I wasn't afraid! Not afraid at all!"

She bit down hard on "not afraid at all," each word sounding like it was being squeezed out from between her teeth.

Xiao Douzi didn't expose her, but just smiled and tugged at her hand.

Her own legs were actually a little weak.

My knees felt like two boiled noodles, bending slightly with every step.

But more than anything, it's a feeling of exhilarating pleasure!

It's like suddenly opening the window in a room that's been stuffy for a long time.

The cold December wind rushed in, instantly replacing all the stuffy, gray air in the room.

My heart was still pounding, each beat making my eardrums ring.

Thump, thump, thump—the rhythm was at least twice as fast as usual, as if a lively rabbit was kicking her chest.

Little Douzi seemed to hear the sound of his blood rushing, deep in his ears.

It was a low, continuous, and slight rumble, like the sound of ocean waves, spreading outwards from the inside of the eardrums, veiling all external sounds with a layer of sonic veil.

Her blood seemed to be flowing faster than usual, rushing from the top of her head to the bottom of her feet with a surging force, then back up to her cheeks, making her feel warm all over.

The warmth brought out two rosy patches on her fair cheeks.

"Godfather." Little Douzi suddenly looked up at Lin Ye, his ahoge (cowlick) bobbing on his head.

Her breathing hadn't completely calmed down yet; her chest was still rising and falling, and the white breath she exhaled was in puffs, denser and larger than usual.

The light in his eyes was even more intense than when he first entered the park, gushing out from the depths of his pupils, impossible to stop.

"This is fun!"

"Hmm," Lin Ye bent down, reaching out to gently tuck the stray hairs that had been ruffled by the wind behind her ear before continuing to speak.

"What else would you like to play?"

"Let's keep going and see what we encounter next," Little Pocket chuckled, a hint of smugness in her voice as she announced their decision.

"I've already agreed with Duoduo that we can play with whichever one we see!"

She took Lin Ye's hand, which was hanging by his side, turned around and took Duo Duo's hand, and walked outside.

Duoduo has fully recovered.

His legs were no longer weak, and his knees were no longer trembling. He was now telling Aunt Li about his heroic performance on the pirate ship.

After leaving the pirate ship area, the group walked along a pebbly path.

The cobblestone path was paved with pebbles, each stone polished smooth and round, embedded in the gray-white cement seams, varying in size and shape.

When you step on it, you can feel the uneven texture under your feet, and you can feel the irregular undulations even through the thick sole of the snow boots.

A small patch of not-so-tall cedars grew on both sides of the path, their branches hanging low.

The pine needles are grayish-green, covered with a thin layer of winter frost, and shimmer with fine, silvery-white light in the morning sun.

The wind carried a crisp, refreshing scent as it passed through the pine forest, carrying with it the slightly bitter undertone unique to pine resin—it was quite intriguing.

Little Douzi couldn't help but take a couple more breaths.

After passing through that small pine forest, the view suddenly opened up—

A gigantic carousel stands before you.

The carousel has two levels, and from a distance it looks like a rotating two-tiered cake.

At the very top is a huge, colorful canopy, with red and gold stripes spreading outwards from the central spire.

A string of crystal chandeliers hung down from the edge of the canopy, but the lights were not turned on, even though it was broad daylight.

But each of those crystal chandeliers is adorned with a hundred or so faceted crystals, which refract tiny iridescent spots of light under the sunlight.

Sunlight dappled the ground, the carousel, and the upturned faces of the children waiting in line.

The crystal beads swayed gently in the cold wind, causing the spots of light to shift from time to time.

In the center is a towering golden pillar, adorned with reliefs of vines and flowers.

The relief sculpture spirals from the base of the pillar to the top.

Each leaf of the vine is carved with the direction of its veins, and each petal of the flower curls with different arcs, with extremely fine gold lines drawn along the edges, making it clear and lifelike.

The painted wooden horse, carrying its passengers, slowly turns to the sound of music.

The tinkling melody is simple and cheerful, looping around and around.

The wooden horses were arranged in neat rows, rising and falling, each horse in a different posture.

Some of them had their forelegs raised high, and their saddles were adorned with red tassels.

Some horses lowered their heads and charged forward, their manes etched into lines that flowed backward.

Some of them tilted their heads, as if whispering to the rocking horse next to them.

……

The horses are painted with various colorful patterns, such as blue scrolls, red flowers, and golden stars, which overlap and spread across their bodies.

Adhering firmly to the general strategy of playing whatever they saw, the two girls exchanged a glance and immediately decided to play this game.
