It was around the sixtieth day she came to this world, when she first arrived at the lake bed. At the time, she didn’t have any good cutting tools and was fighting the vines with her claws, when with unsteady footing, she fell on the ground and rolled down the slope into the lake.
Previously she didn’t dare test out whether she could actually swim. Water was always collected at the edge of the lake. Sinking into the water, she found out she could actually breathe underwater and rejoiced, then took the opportunity to explore the place she had never set foot in.
Usually when Yi Longlong retrieved water, the water temperature was at a very normal temperature, but as the distance from the lake surface increased, she could feel the temperature of the lake dramatically drop. Incidentally, this chilliness did not affect her at all. Although the surface of her body came into contact with the icy liquid, mysteriously she felt as if she was wrapped by warm waters. No matter what sort of troubles or sorrows, at this cool lake bed, it was all transformed into peace and warmth.
Putting aside her thoughts, Yi Longlong continued swimming down. As she got closer to the bed, the water quality became more thick, as if it had been greatly compressed. All sizes of water pieces surrounded her body.
Water piece was what Yi Longlong named it. She didn’t know what the material was made of. It was a type of see through plastic that gave off a faint blue glow. It had a texture similar to the jellies and puddings from her previous life, but like plasticine, it could be pinched into all kinds of shapes.
