Chapter 76 Chapter 76 Introducing a New Friend to You
In the face of Zhong Yuan's sudden surprise, Chang Ruijia managed to maintain her composure, saying that she suddenly remembered that she had some things to deal with, and then asked her, with whom she had just been chatting happily, to leave the floating object.
During the process, Zhong Yuan was not given any time to react. It was not until she walked back to her floating object like a puppet in a daze, and looked at the bed bridge that she had folded up, that she finally reacted.
What happened? Wasn't it just a normal "fishing" activity? Did Sister Chang remember something? Why did she suddenly react so strongly after hearing it?
Zhong Yuan, with his mind full of greetings, looked at her back in confusion. Chang Ruijia, who had already quickly moved away from the crowd, was complaining in her heart.
She said that before she went to bed, she always felt like she had forgotten something!
In fact, after introducing the situation of those monster fish in the strait, she wanted to simply say hello to Lu Baian and inform him of Xiao Yi's existence.
After all, she left it in the sea near the market. It would be bad if something happened because of her momentary negligence.
As a result, because Yu Jianyi changed the subject of the solution, Chang Ruijia's suppressed sleepiness suddenly came back.
I actually completely forgot about Xiao Ai and didn't think about her at all!
When Chang Ruijia thought of this, her hands, which were already extremely fast, almost left afterimages, and she was getting closer and closer to the place where the noisy sounds came from.
God bless, please don’t let Lu Baian and the others do anything stupid!
Although she believed that with Xiao Yi's speed and intelligence, he would not easily fall into the hands of the people in the market, but one must always be prepared for any eventuality.
What if Xiao Yi suddenly had a problem and accidentally lost the speed he was so proud of? What if Xiao Yi trusted others too much and sacrificed his life?
What's more, even though Xiao Yi has saved her life more than once and has shown wisdom beyond that of ordinary monster fish, it is still a member of the monster fish after all.
Rather than Xiao Yi being hurt at their hands, she was more afraid that Lu Baian and the others’ repeated probing would wear out Xiao Yi’s patience. What if he became aggressive?
The more she thought about it, the faster Chang Ruijia moved her hands, the faster she wanted to move them, and she wanted to fly straight to where they were gathered.
"Spare...the fish?"
Chang Ruijia rushed past the outermost protection without stopping, and was about to rush thousands of miles to prevent a tragedy from happening. However, through the noisy crowd, the words she was about to shout out suddenly changed in tone.
Wait! What are they holding in their hands?!
Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Baian glanced around the crowd and saw Chang Ruijia, whose face was filled with disbelief.
"Why are you here?" Lu Baian said cheerfully, but remembering what he had just said, he raised the thing in his hand with some surprise, "You... want it?"
The people around also looked at Chang Ruijia in confusion.
Was it a colorful, large bait tied to a rope? It was now wet in Lu Baian's hand, as if it had just been pulled up from the sea.
"What are you doing?" Chang Ruijia, who was under the spotlight, swallowed her saliva and finally realized that it seemed different from the brutal behavior she had imagined. "Didn't Zhong Yuan say that Yu Jianyi's research had some results? Are you here to cause trouble for the monster fish? This is..."
"Yes," Lu Baian said as a matter of course, lifting the colorful fish in his hand, which had more than doubled in weight after being soaked in water. "This is the little trick that Brother Yu came up with."
When he first discovered that it was an octopus, Yu Jianyi wondered how the world dealt with this kind of squid. But later, when he saw the dolphin playing with the squid, his mind suddenly opened up.
It is true that the legs of squids are generally not as flexible and long as those of octopuses, but that is already their normal limitation. Now we live in an ocean world without past and future. How can we compare them with those monsters whose body lengths often start from ten or eight meters?
What's more, later Chang Ruijia also sorted out his previous experience of killing the Tost giant squid and posted it in the group chat. He found that the best thing about these squids is speed, followed by their extraordinary tentacles.
In this case, wouldn't he be able to imitate the dolphin's actions to deal with it?
"So, you came up with this?" Chang Ruijia said with a puzzled look on her face, pointing at the colorful fish that had overturned the color palette.
"The light in the deep sea is pretty average," Lu Baian said, winking as if to keep a secret. "Brother Yu said that if we made the bait more colorful, it might attract its attention."
When they were observing the deep sea, only a few people in the group chat knew about the existence of GoPro. How could they say it directly in front of the crowd now? They still had to keep this secret for the time being.
Yes, this idea is powerful!
Chang Ruijia secretly gave a thumbs up to Yu Jianyi who was still staying in the protected area of the market. It was indeed an excellent idea for him to come up with such a solution.
"Hey, even though we can't see what's happening underwater, the entire surface of the ocean was turbulent after we threw that fish in," a nearby team member said proudly, squeezing over. "This method is definitely effective."
Lu Baian quietly raised his mobile phone behind the crowd, indicating to Chang Ruijia that he had actually dropped the GoPro to observe the situation when no one was looking. After all, it was impossible for him to place the bait completely blindly the first time he did it.
However, the scene of the bait playing with the fish under the sea is absolutely explosive.
"Ahem, by the way, is there something that has you coming here in such a hurry?" Facing the team members around him who couldn't wait for him to throw down the bait again to play around, Lu Baian coughed uncomfortably and said to Chang Ruijia who was already very close.
"Well, there is something," Chang Ruijia nodded. This was not something that could be delayed any longer, especially when she felt that Xiao Yi's strange energy was getting closer and closer.
Xiao Ai's curiosity cannot be underestimated. If you come to find her and see that strange thing under the sea, I don't know which side can take advantage of you.
"Ah~" After hearing Chang Ruijia's words, the surrounding team members made a mournful sound.
Most of them knew Chang Ruijia's identity. Now that the two market organizers got together, they must have something serious to discuss, so their wish to play for a while longer would be shattered.
But they are also sensible. Business is more important in the current situation.
"Stop it, what are you doing?" Lu Baian rolled his eyes at the group of people making fun of him. "This bait is for you. You stay here and continue your experiments."
"But let me make this clear first," Lu Baian said seriously, looking at the crowd that could no longer contain their excitement. "You must proceed with caution. If anything unexpected happens, immediately abandon the bait that's been dropped at an unknown distance underwater and quickly return to the protected area of the market. Got it?"
"Yes, sir!"
As cheers erupted, the group of people who had been huddled close to Lu Baian's floating object quickly and clearly abandoned him and ran directly to the other side of the sea where they had not been disturbed to "play".
"A bunch of heartless people." Lu Baian smiled and shook his head.
Originally, Lu Baian was thinking that Chang Ruijia wanted to discuss something with her, but before she could get close, she saw her making a gesture and paddling further outside.
Is it such a secret? Seeing her actions, although Lu Baian was still full of questions, he still followed her obediently without saying a word.
Normally, Rui Jia couldn't sell him out, so there was no need for her to hesitate and follow him to see what was going on.
Chang Ruijia estimated the distance between herself and the people coming and going in the market, and waited until she reached a place that would not cause a disturbance and was secluded enough before she slowly stopped.
Seeing Lu Baian following closely, Chang Ruijia hesitated for a moment, "Where's the newly developed bed board? Come to my floating object, I want to tell you something."
Oh? Lu Baian's face was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chang Ruijia to bring up this matter. While packing his things, he said, "It seems you have met Zhong Yuan? You know all about these things."
"You left her in the settlement area to guard the project, isn't it because you wanted to explain the situation to me first? You act as if you were so surprised." Chang Ruijia rolled her eyes and pulled Lu Baian, who was moving politely as if to maintain some necessary demeanor, to sit down on the bed.
"What's the matter?" After a few words of teasing, Lu Baian couldn't help but frowned at Chang Ruijia, who was still in a dilemma. "What happened? Tell me, we can find a solution for you together."
"Wait a minute, I'll introduce you to a new friend." Chang Ruijia stretched out her hand and scooped up the water on the sea twice, and finally made up her mind.
"New friend?" Lu Baian's eyes kept looking around. Why didn't he see anyone special around him? Could it be a contact number added on his phone?
Seeing Chang Ruijia's hand stirring in the sea, he pulled her sleeve and pulled her hand up with a look of disapproval. "Although those giant squids under the sea don't easily appear in shallow waters, no one can predict whether there will be any accidents. It's better not to let your guard down."
She looked at Lu Baian in confusion as he naturally took out a towel to wipe the water off her hands. Chang Ruijia was full of doubts, but she had to continue listening to him chattering beside her.
"Let's not talk about far-flung things. Last time when we put down the GoPro, didn't we see a dolphin underwater? What if it smelled your hand and chased after you?"
Isn't this just right? Chang Ruijia retorted in her heart, pulling back her hand uncomfortably, "This is what I came to talk to you about. Let me tell you, that sea..."
"Wait!" Lu Baian hadn't yet pulled his thoughts back from her stiff hand. Just as he was about to listen carefully to what she was going to say, he suddenly frowned and interrupted, "I feel a sense of danger. Don't say anything. Be careful!"
Lu Baian's whole body suddenly became alert, his eyes fixed on the sudden ripples on the sea, and his hand unconsciously drew out the knife behind his back.
He had just said that in addition to the Tost Giant Squid, there might be other terrible things appearing under the sea. Unexpectedly, good things would not work and bad things would come. This danger actually appeared next to them.
Lu Baian's mind was turning in a thousand turns as he looked around. He had no idea what Chang Ruijia wanted to say by choosing this place. The market, the crowd, and the people outside were all a certain distance away from here. Now, even if he wanted to call for help, there would be no easy way.
What should I do?
Before Lu Baian could think of a way to protect him and her, Chang Ruijia, who was protected behind him, suddenly had a bright idea.
"Xiao Yi, stop making trouble and come out!"
What? Lu Baian looked at Chang Ruijia's bright smile in confusion. What do you mean by "little huh"? "Little huh"? "Little huh"? "Little huh"?
Why does he feel like he is reading a heavenly book when he looks at this situation now? Has he entered another dimension?
"Let me introduce you," Chang Ruijia touched the smooth big head that came close to her hand, looked at Lu Baian with a smile and said, "This is the new friend I want to tell you about, Xiaoyi."
