Isn't This Too High?

"Eh?"

After waking up, Li Teng sat up and was going to get off the bed when he suddenly retracted his legs, looked around, and yelled out loud.

"What's going on!?"

Li Teng looked around in horror, carefully moved his body to the bedside, and glanced under the bed.

He remembered falling asleep at home, in his bedroom, on his bed last night. However, when he woke up in the morning, he found that the bed he was lying on was on the edge of a cliff!

No, not the edge of a cliff…

After looking around in the other three directions, Li Teng was terrified to discover that his bed was placed on top of a stone pillar!

The stone pillar's length and width coincided with the length and width of his bed, and the height of the stone pillar seemed to be more than 1,000 meters from the ground!

"I'm dreaming! I have to be dreaming!" Li Teng retreated to the center of the bed, sat hugging himself, and kept consoling himself.

After closing his eyes for a long while, Li Teng opened his eyes again, hoping very much that after opening his eyes, he'd be back in his familiar bedroom.

Unfortunately, that was not the case.

He was still on top of a stone pillar at a height of more than 1,000 meters!

"Wake up! Wake up!" Li Teng reached out and patted himself on the face, trying to wake himself up from this 'nightmare'.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain, and doing so only made himself soberer and soberer.

"I've been kidnapped! I have to ask for help! My cell phone…" Li Teng felt around underneath his pillow and bedding.

In general, he always used his cell phone at night until its battery ran out, so he had the habit of putting his phone on the desk next to him for charging before going to bed.

Thus, it was impossible for him to find his cell phone in his bed.

Li Teng, indignant, carefully crawled to the bedside and took a closer look under the wooden bed.

Beneath the wooden bed was a sleek top surface of the stone pillar, the cell phone was also not there.

"Who did it?

"Who brought me here?

"Do you know it's illegal for you to do this?

"Hurry up and let me down!"

Li Teng screamed loudly at the sky.

There was no response.

Li Teng, slightly calmer, lay face-down on the bed, stretched his head beyond the edge of the bed, and observed carefully, wanting to find out where he was now.

At a height of more than 1,000 meters, it was difficult to clearly see the scene below with the naked eye.

Fortunately, Li Teng's eyesight was good. After folding his hands into a monocular and looking carefully for a long time, he could pretty much make out what seemed to be a small town beneath the stone pillar, with crisscrossing roads and some buildings. There was also a mountain next to the town, as well as a big lake next to the mountain.

Is there such a small town in the world?

A small town with a stone pillar piercing into the sky in the middle of it?

It was a pity that he had no phone. Otherwise, he could search online where this was.

"Help! Anyone!" Li Teng called for help loudly toward the bottom of the pillar once again.

There was no response—only the sound of wind in his ears.

Li Teng, desperate, lay back onto the bed.

Although lying on his own bed, Li Teng's heart at the moment was not at all restful.

This was the height of more than 1,000 meters!

With one careless turn, he could fall off the edge of the bed and break into 1,000 pieces!

Li Teng tried his best to keep himself right in the center of the bed, in case he accidentally fell off the edge of the bed.

He lay on the bed, looking at the sky as he had nothing to do.

Soon, Li Teng discovered a pressing problem he had to face.

His stomach was beginning to grunt.

Every morning, he ate breakfast around seven. Now it should be almost eight already. But he still hadn't eaten breakfast, and the hunger was inevitable.

The problem was, where was he to get breakfast from under such circumstances?

Wouldn't he starve to death here if there was no food?

Not only starving, but there was also the problem of water.

It was said that a person could survive for more than ten days without food, but without drinking water, one couldn't even last three days.

Li Teng felt increasingly panicked.

"Who is pulling this damn prank at me?

"End it quickly! Stop playing!

"Help!

"Help me!"

Li Teng folded his hands into a bell shape and called out for help downward a few more times at the edge of the bed. When he still received no response, he had to give up temporarily and lay back in the middle of the bed.

Calling for help reaped no results but consumed his strength in vain. It would even increase the loss of water in his body, which was even less conducive to his survival on top of the stone pillar.

Right now, the best choice was to lie completely still and extend the time of his survival as long as possible, until he got found and rescued.

Would there be rescue?

While lying in the middle of the bed, Li Teng let his imagination run wild, and his mind slowly clouded.

At one point, he suddenly realized that it would really be too dangerous for him to just fall asleep like this.

What if he rolled off the bed after falling asleep?

After sleeping in a bed for so many years, he had never had the experience of rolling out of bed before, so it shouldn't be that easy to roll out, right?

However, this is the height of more than 1,000 meters!

I've never slept at a place so high before!

It was just like when a person stood on the edge of their own bed—whatever dangerous actions they did, they wouldn't feel scared because even if they fell off, nothing would happen. Thus, it was very difficult for him to fall down.

Nevertheless, if a person stood by a cliff without fences, and still fancily looked for their own death like this, the consequence might be very different.

The main point was… the psychological feeling when standing beside the bed was different.

Just as he was having random thoughts, a faint rumbling sound came from the sky in the distance.

Li Teng looked across the sky and found that it was a plane!

It seemed to be a passenger airliner, flying in his direction from the distance!

Li Teng hurried to stand up on his bed and waved his hands hard at the approaching airliner.

Unfortunately, the passenger airliner flew at too high a height, and it didn't pause at all when flying over Li Teng's head. It couldn't possibly see Li Teng underneath who was as tiny as an insect standing on the tip of a needle.

"Having a passenger airliner pass by at least shows that this is not a deserted place, maybe other aircrafts will appear. I have to strive to survive, rescue will definitely come one day!"

Li Teng lay on the bed and bore his time until it was noon. Aside from passenger airliners that occasionally passed by from high up in the sky, Li Teng did not get to see any other aircrafts.

The noon sun was pretty scalding. Although it wasn't very hot at such a height, it still made Li Teng's throat dry. He wanted very much to have a cup of sweet, icy drink in front of him at this time.

He would surely grab this drink and drink it in one go.

Unfortunately, he had none.

He was not only thirsty but also hungry.

There was no way to settle it at all at such a high altitude!

Li Teng, hungry and thirsty, under the light of the noon sun, fell asleep without knowing.

He slept for an unknown amount of time.

When he woke up, Li Teng realized that he was back in his own bedroom!

"God! This nightmare is finally over!"

Li Teng was overjoyed.

"Thirsty."

He hurried to reach over to the table beside him, grabbed the water glass, and poured the cold water inside into his stomach.

It still didn't quite quench his thirst.

There were iced beer and drinks in the fridge.

He still needed to find some food to eat.

Li Teng stumbled out of bed and staggered out of the bedroom. He was about to go to the fridge to find food and drinks. When he saw the bathroom next to him, he felt that he had better release himself first.

When he stumbled into the toilet, unzipped his pants, and started releasing his water into the toilet, Li Teng suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Where's the toilet bowl?

Why did it turn into a high cliff in front of him?

Li Teng subconsciously leaned over and looked down, but his body staggered and fell down a cliff thousands of meters high!

"AHHH!"

With a scream, Li Teng finally really woke up.

He realized that he hadn't woken up earlier, as he was still lying in his own bed. And this bed was still at the top of a stone pillar thousands of meters high in the sky!

The scene when he returned to his bedroom just now was him dreaming!

"Gosh! No!" Li Teng yelled in despair.
