Chapter 279: Night Talk with the Household God
"nice."
Xie Yuchuan spoke slowly and in a low voice.
Looking at the sea from the sky, the word "beautiful" alone cannot fully express what I feel.
He had no idea how many mountains and valleys he had climbed in the northwest of Daliang, but the scenery he had seen had never been as beautiful as the one he was seeing at this moment.
The sky is high and the sea is vast, it turns out to be so shocking.
He was reluctant to look away and cherished this rare opportunity even more.
Two emotions kept spreading in Tu Huan's heart, like two intertwined waves, one gentle and the other fast.
The bright moon quietly peeked out from behind the dark clouds, and the moonlight sprinkled on the calm sea, as if it was coated with a layer of light.
Looking down from a high vantage point, one can occasionally see a ship sailing far away on the sea, like a small boat lying quietly on the book.
"Is that... a sea vessel?"
Tu Huan nodded. Looking down from this height, the huge ship looked like a miniature toy. Fortunately, he had a good vision.
There was disbelief in the low breathing.
Tu Huan shifted her posture slightly, propping up her chin. She remembered that Xie Yuchuan spent most of his time in Beijing and the northwest. "Last time we flew during the day, I wanted to ask you, have you ever been to the beach in Daliang?"
"When I was young, I went to Dongzhou Prefecture with my family to worship our ancestors in Huaiyang, Jiangnan. However, I was young and playful at that time, and I didn't know how far the sky and the sea were. I only felt that the coast was fine sand and there were marine animals everywhere. It was a beautiful place."
Xie Yuchuan recalled his childhood memories of the sea he had seen in his childhood. It turned out to be so vast and calm when viewed from the sky, which was completely different.
Hearing him talk about his childhood, Tu Huan's mind suddenly flashed with the cute appearance of a young child. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on her lips, and the sudden surge of joy was instantly transmitted to Xie Yuchuan's heart.
A warm feeling rose in my heart, and I felt very comfortable.
In the darkness, the corners of the man's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
Tu Huan asked, "Is Xie's hometown, Huaiyang, close to the sea?"
"Not far." Xie Yuchuan said.
Perhaps it was because they were talking about the past, their carefree childhood, which always had a big filter. Xie Yuchuan felt that the family god seemed to be quite interested at the moment, so he picked out a few interesting childhood stories at the seaside and told them to Tu Huan.
It was rare to hear Xie Yuchuan talk about things in detail, so Tu Huan listened carefully. He told her three or four past events in a row. She soon discovered that Xie Yuchuan's tone when talking about the past was concise and to the point. He talked about when, where, and how many people were having a fuss, what consequences it caused, how many people were punished in the end, what he learned, and how much fun he had.
The young and lively little face in her mind seemed to come alive before her eyes.
As Xie Yuchuan spoke softly, she couldn't help but retrieve the small version of "Xie Yuchuan" from the system backpack, which she had asked the system to take in the Second Madam's dream.
Xie Yuchuan didn't know that she already "knew" what he was like in his childhood.
"Is Dongzhou Prefecture far from the capital?"
"The journey will take from one to two months."
Tu Huan nodded, calculating in her mind that Haicheng is actually not that far from Kyoto now.
"Pirates continue to plague the coastal counties of Dongzhou Prefecture, causing widespread distress to the people. With the imperial court opening the fishing season, the coastal defense officials there also want to eradicate the pirate threat. However, the complex web of interests at sea keeps them from always meeting their expectations. The Xie family of Huaiyang also has relatives serving in the Dongzhou coastal defense, and being an official there is not easy."
When talking about local affairs, Xie Yuchuan's thoughts easily wandered to the details of protecting the people and defending against the enemy. Tu Huan didn't quite understand some of what he said, but Xie Yuchuan's voice was pleasant to the ear, and before she knew it, she had been listening to him talk about the customs and practices of Dongzhou Prefecture for a long time.
Tu Huan was a little surprised: "So you're not just someone who's devoted to studying warfare."
"Does the family god think I'm talking too much tonight?" Xie Yuchuan was a little uneasy.
"No, what you said is very interesting. It makes me want to go to Dongzhou Prefecture someday." Tu Huan smiled.
Xie Yuchuan was infected by the smile. He hesitated for a moment and said softly, "If there is a chance in the future, I would like to guide the family god and travel east together."
"Hurrah!"
Speaking of the coast, Tu Huan suddenly asked him, "What kind of seafood do you like to eat?"
When she returned to H City, she could go to the fresh food market to check out the fresh produce! Since the Xie family had been exiled north, she had only thought about feeding them food that was easy to carry and filling, but had forgotten about this type of improved seasonal seafood.
Xie Yuchuan, having benefited from the blessing of his family god and having the good fortune to ride a flying boat straight into the sky to observe the sky, understood in his heart that what seemed to him like a long journey might be seen by the family god as just a short journey across a few mountains and seas.
But even so, he didn't want to make the family god worry because of his own preferences.
The kindness was as vast as the sea, and he hadn't even had time to repay her, so how could he trouble her again?
"I have a simple diet and don't have too many preferences." Xie Yuchuan said conservatively.
Tu Huan stared at the ship that was going further and further away on the sea, and said casually: "I'll get you a few more kinds of seafood to try later." When it came to seafood, she herself was immediately tempted.
The two of them started from the same boat at sea and talked all the way to the fishermen in Dongzhou, Daliang, who were going to the sea. As Tu Huan listened, she felt that Xie Yuchuan's "gaze" was always following the departing ship.
His eyes flashed, and he temporarily blocked Xie Yuchuan's consciousness and asked the system: "Can you help me zoom in on that ship?"
The system popped up and replied: [Host, the holographic glasses you purchased have a zoom function on the upper left side.]
Tu Huan was taken aback for a moment and exclaimed in surprise, "Tongzi, you've become so successful that you didn't even take the opportunity to steal my points and energy!"
【Progress is a kind of spiritual happiness! 】
I don’t know where on the Chinese internet this inspirational quote came from. Tu Huan is always happy when she can get something done without spending any money.
She put on the smart glasses and turned on the normal function. A circle of focal length parameters appeared in front of the transparent lenses. It quickly automatically focused and the center was aligned with the "ship" in the distance that was about to disappear into a dot.
After capturing the target, a number of numbers flew across the front of the lens, quickly drawing Tu Huanhe (Xie Yuchuan)'s attention to the ship flying the national flag.
A huge cargo ship suddenly appeared in front of the two people.
As expected, he sensed Xie Yuchuan's emotions that suddenly soared in that second.
In the series of operations just now, except for communicating with the system, Tu Huan did not avoid Xie Yuchuan in other aspects.
So much so that when Xie Yuchuan suddenly saw the characters flashing, spinning and disappearing rapidly in front of his eyes, he almost forgot to breathe.
Since he became a god, he has experienced so many strange things that he feels he has developed the ability to remain calm in the face of emergencies.
However, in the blink of an eye just now, he was shocked and held his breath. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief until the countless incomprehensible characters in front of him disappeared.
The next second, before his eyes, there was an extremely huge ship!
Huh——
This time, even Tu Huan seemed to hear his uncontrollable inhalation.
“This, this…”
How can this ship be so big? ! ! !
