Chapter 168 The desire to go to [Fairyland] had reached its peak.
Soon, the air bus became the focus of attention in Qianfeng Town.
With nothing else to do, the locals gathered around it, forming a huge circle of onlookers.
Everyone looked at the enormous thing in front of them with curiosity. They hadn’t realized how big it was when they looked up at it before, but now that they saw it up close, they were even more shocked!
Although they didn't understand the meaning of the word "bus" they heard, they knew it was a vehicle, and a mysterious one at that, specifically designed for travel to the fairyland.
When the townspeople heard that the bus could carry more than fifty people, they were all shocked!
After all, in their knowledge, there were only oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages, and they had never seen a vehicle that could carry so many people at once.
It's hard to imagine how something so enormous could be moved...
"Can this giant vehicle really fly?"
A voice timidly raised a question.
If you didn't witness it fall from the sky with your own eyes, who would believe that this enormous rectangular object could actually ascend to the heavens?
"Perhaps so. Although it's not very clear from the air, I saw it fall to the ground and land here. This is the most fitting thing in this area..." someone responded.
“I have good eyesight, I can see it clearly, that’s the car flying in the sky, no doubt about it!” another person said confidently.
……
"How can the paintings on this carriage be so lifelike, even moving? Am I seeing things?"
An elderly man in a grey-white robe with a flowing white beard suddenly exclaimed in surprise from the crowd.
His loud voice instantly drowned out the surrounding noise and made him stand out.
The old man's eyes, though filled with wrinkles, gleamed with an unusual light as he stared intently at the seemingly alive animation on the car's body, his gaze unwavering.
"This is truly a miracle! Only a painting master reborn could create such a vibrant painting!"
I have been painting for over sixty years, yet I never dared to imagine that I could create a moving painting! Compared to this, I am truly ashamed of my own inadequacy; I am like rotten wood that cannot be carved!
At this moment, someone in the crowd recognized the elderly man in his seventies and excitedly shouted.
"Look, isn't that Mr. Lu Weihuai, who is famous for his portrait paintings?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and saw an elderly man with white hair but a vigorous spirit standing in front of the car, staring intently at the painting on the car, his eyes filled with awe.
The old man was oblivious to the admiration and comments of others, completely absorbed in the intense visual impact of the animation.
"Do you all know how one can meet this master who created this divine painting? I sincerely wish to learn a thing or two from him... It's simply a miracle! What a genius!"
The old man was filled with shock, muttering questions, whether he was asking someone or talking to himself, it was unclear.
"This must be a gift from an immortal. I've heard that this carriage is a gateway to the fairyland. Perhaps only a god could master such a transformative technique..."
Someone guessed from the side.
"Mr. Lu, why don't you go up and ask? It seems like the car door in front is already open?" someone suggested.
Meanwhile, inside the air bus.
As Bai Mengran watched the crowd grow larger and larger, and with the [Thousand-Mile Voice Transmission] already deployed and the momentum building nearly complete, she couldn't resist the urge to go down and say a few words.
Unexpectedly, the AI driver in the car got up from the driver's seat and got out of the car before she could.
Oh, I almost forgot, the driver also doubles as a waiter. He can not only drive but also pick up customers, making him a true multi-talented smart employee!
Now that someone was doing it for her, Bai Mengran sat down again with peace of mind, and naturally lay down wherever she could find a place to lie down.
"Sister Bai, how about I go down and help attract some customers?"
Kong Nishang saw that the vehicle had been parked for a while, but no one had gotten on. People were gathered below discussing the matter, but no one was getting on to find out what was going on. She was getting a little anxious.
As the unofficial ambassador for "Fairyland", Kong Nishang has quite a way of talking about Fairyland to everyone she meets, so she was getting anxious watching this!
"It's alright, Yiyi. Let's just stay in the car and observe what happens. Let the professionals handle the professional matters."
Bai Mengran gently patted Kong Nishang's hand to comfort her.
"But wasn't it the coachman who got off? Could it be that he..."
Before Kong Nishang could finish speaking, she suddenly realized that someone who could stay and work under Sister Bai was no ordinary person, and it was quite reasonable for them to be able to juggle multiple roles and be so efficient...
Sure enough, after the driver and attendant got out, they quickly took control of the situation and began to answer the people's questions.
"Please listen to me, everyone. This vehicle is called the 'Sky Bus,' and it comes from the 'Fairyland' of Peach Blossom Town."
We made a special trip to Qianfeng Town to pick up our distinguished guests who wish to visit the "Fairyland".
Please be aware that Wonderland currently operates a variety of businesses, including convenience stores, milk tea shops, eateries, fast food restaurants, braised food shops, bakeries, fruit shops, barbecue stalls, and daily necessities stores, and will soon launch a home delivery service for existing customers.
In short, the food in this fairyland is delicious and you're guaranteed a worthwhile trip that you'll want to return to!
And today, for the first trial ride, the ticket price is halved, only five coins for a one-way trip! For just ten coins, you can enjoy a round-trip service, and we'll take you back to where you started!
Don't miss this special offer! The fare will increase in stages later, eventually reaching ten coins per trip!
As soon as he finished speaking, the people of Qianfeng Town erupted in excitement.
"These restaurant names sound completely unfamiliar, but for some reason, I can sense that they are all places of delicious food..."
"I understood two of them. I know about the eateries and the braised food stalls, but the other shops have piqued my curiosity. I really want to go and see them for myself!"
"Such a luxurious carriage only costs five coins! I definitely want to experience it. Anyone else want to come along?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I want to go see it too, since there's a ticket discount today!"
……
"Young man, may I ask you, who is the master who drew the animation for this car body?"
The veteran painter Lu Weihuai still harbors a deep concern about this question, yearning to understand why painting can present a dynamic effect.
"Sir, this is a masterpiece of [Wonderland]."
It utilizes the persistence of vision characteristic of the human eye, playing a series of static images with subtle changes in content rapidly in succession at a certain frame rate, thus creating the visual illusion that objects in the image are moving.
The driver patiently explained to Lu Weihuai based on the system information.
At the same time, he began organizing the eager passengers to queue up and buy tickets.
Lu Weihuai was shocked after hearing this. Although he could not fully understand it, he had obviously accepted the principle of this animation and kept repeating the animation theory he had just heard.
"I, an old man, also want to go and see this magical place. Perhaps I can find more creative inspiration..." Lu Weihuai murmured to himself.
A long queue had already formed at the entrance of the air shuttle bus. Many excited residents of Qianfeng Town were eager to explore the wonders of this "fairyland" and were craning their necks in anticipation...
