Chapter 214 The Silly Duck Has Its Own Good Fortune

Is it all digested? So fast?!

Xi Xi looked at the mirror willow waving its branches in the mirror with some surprise.

"It's possible that the fish monster is too weak compared to Mirror Willow!" Chu Zhiqin was worried because she thought Aura or Little White Duck had an upset stomach. Now that she had found the culprit, she was finally relieved and said while cleaning up the dishes.

Xi Xi wiped the mirror, slightly speechless: "Big brother, next time, could you please tell me before you finish digesting the last bite... Your burp was like a biological weapon, I just couldn't take it..."

Whether the willow in the mirror truly understood or not, Xi Xi helplessly put the Willow Mirror back into her pouch. She glanced at the remaining mackerel dumplings, and the memory of the nauseating smell made her dizzy and completely lose her appetite.

The little white duck flew over, quacked twice tentatively, and then, without any hesitation, opened its mouth and ate all the remaining dumplings.

Xi Xi patted the little white duck's head with a slight sense of relief. Sure enough, the silly duck had its own kind of luck. She praised it loudly and sincerely, ignoring Aura's slightly disdainful look.

Xi Xi gracefully sat back in the comfortable driver's seat, skillfully operating the control panel with both hands, and decisively canceled the constant speed automatic driving mode.

As she pressed the accelerator, the car shot off like an arrow, the engine emitting a deep and powerful roar.

It was midday, and the sun high in the sky was casting an intense glare. A few waterbirds occasionally skimmed across the shimmering sea, and everything was peaceful.

However, before long, the sunlight weakened, and thick clouds took its place. The sky seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, gradually becoming dim and lifeless.

The once dazzling steel and concrete structure of the cross-sea bridge is now shrouded in a hazy mist, appearing mysterious and distant.

The mist rose slowly from the sea and gradually spread, blending the bridge into the surrounding sea and sky, making it difficult to distinguish where the sea ended and the bridge began.

In the thick white mist, the outline of the road ahead became blurred, with extremely low visibility, appearing and disappearing intermittently, making it difficult to see clearly.

Xi Xi frowned and was forced to slow down her driving speed.

Water droplets occasionally condensed on the windshield, blurring her vision. She turned on the wipers to wipe away the water droplets, but the fog remained.

It was a perfectly natural weather phenomenon, but with only Xi Xi's car on the road at that moment, it inevitably seemed somewhat eerie and lonely.

She carefully maneuvered the steering wheel, her eyes fixed on the road ahead, afraid of missing any road signs or unexpected situations.

The surrounding world became unusually quiet, with only the sounds of vehicle engines and the faint sound of distant waves mingling together.

The sea breeze, carrying a hint of coolness and moisture, slipped in through the half-open car window, brushing against my face and bringing with it a slightly salty, fishy smell.

“Let’s just turn on autopilot. In this awful weather, we can’t go fast no matter what!” Chu Zhiqin said to Xi Xi as she walked down from the terrace with a worried look on her face. “It’s starting to drizzle. I’ve opened up the entire roof of the terrace and lowered the supports as much as possible. Anyway, it will provide some shade.”

Xi Xi nodded upon hearing this, then loosened her grip on the steering wheel, stood up with a sigh of relief, and tapped her stiff back.

She glanced at the increasingly thick fog outside the window and sighed helplessly, "Plans can't keep up with changes, so today's itinerary won't meet expectations..."

"How about this, let's go to sleep now, catch up on some sleep, and drive later tonight." Xi Xi pondered for a moment, then looked at her mother, "The sky is so gloomy, it looks like it's going to turn from light rain to heavy rain. Maybe after a heavy rain, the fog will clear up tonight."

The air inside the car felt slightly stuffy. After closing the windows, Chu Zhiqin turned on the air purifier and looked out the window with some concern.

This fog is incredibly thick; will it really clear up by tonight...?

Sure enough, when Xi Xi woke up again, the sound of raindrops was still ringing in her ears, showing no sign of stopping.

The entire second floor of the RV was shrouded in darkness, with only the skylight leading to the terrace serving as the sole source of light in the darkness.

The raindrops relentlessly pounded against the glass, making a pattering sound that was incredibly annoying.

Feeling slightly sleepy and tired, Xi Xi slowly sat up in bed. She reached out and casually pulled back the curtains in front of her bed.

Suddenly, a blinding light shone through the car window, causing her to squint instinctively. After her eyes adjusted to the sudden glare, she looked up and stared intently.

The sight before her astonished her! The bridge surface in front of her was covered with countless crystals.

The crystals grew like trees in a forest, intertwined and clustered together.

Under the streetlights in the dark night, the light refracts into a dazzling white hue, with streaks of light reflecting off each other, transforming the originally deserted bridge surface into a bizarre and wonderful world.

Even more unexpectedly, the RV, which was originally set to autonomous driving mode, suddenly stopped quietly at some point.

With a sense of foreboding, Xi Xi looked down from the second-floor window of the car and, sure enough, these obstructing crystals had blocked the car in the middle of the road.

Xi Xi's face froze instantly, and an ominous premonition welled up in her heart. She didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately ran to the large bed at the back of the car, lifted the bed curtain, and woke up her mother.

With sleepy eyes, Chu Zhiqin followed Xi Xi's finger and saw that the crystals covered the gaps in the car window, even making a "tearing" squeezing sound.

Xi's mother felt a pang of anxiety and immediately came to her senses.

Xi Xi took out her temperature-regulating cloak, put on her shoes and got out of the car to check without saying a word. She found that the crystals were white and did not look like any special crystals, but rather like ordinary sea salt!

The surrounding fog was still thick, and the salty, fishy smell filled her respiratory tract. Xi Xi suddenly stood up, covered her mouth and nose, and quickly returned to the car.

With a serious expression, she checked all the doors and windows, then quickly fastened her seatbelt, stepped on the clutch, shifted gears, and suddenly rammed into the crystal in front of her.
