Chapter 127 Raft
Not long after Shu Fu hung up the phone, Lu Zheng called and the first thing he asked was: "Did the barrier disappear?"
Shu Fu: ...
This was probably because she seldom sent messages to Lu Zheng about family matters. When she sent messages to Chen Fa and Lu Zheng, they mostly described their own situations. Messages like today's would be noticeable to anyone with a little sensitivity.
"It should be." Shu Fu didn't say anything definite. After all, the map panel said "Global Water Map", and Xizhou Province did not belong to the water area, and would not belong to it in the future.
"Where are you in Xizhou Province? If there are still some restrictions, we can come to you at any time." Lu Zheng paused, and then said, "Except Chen Fa and her grandmother."
"What happened between Chen Fa and grandma?" She had just sent the message to Chen Fa and thought that the other party would not reply so quickly.
"They went to Kangsu County. It seems something happened to their friend."
"Friend?" Shu Fu thought for a while. Ever since she met Chen Fa in Hexi Town, she had never heard her mention any friends she kept in touch with. She thought of something and asked, "Do you know the last name of that friend?"
"She's surname is Wu, her given name is Tian Wu. Before she left, she told me that she would be gone for about ten days. If you send me a message during this time, she may not be able to reply in time while she's on the road. If you find me, I'll tell you about this."
Shu Fu knew who it was, it was Wu Shaoshan!
After graduation, the two of them continued to rent together and had a good relationship. If their families had not had to move to different cities, they might not have been separated before the transfer.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Zheng asked again: "Where are you?"
"I'm about to leave the waters of the Northern Plateau. However, I probably won't live on land in the future..." Before she finished her words, she heard Lu Ce's voice on the other end of the phone. His voice was as miserable as a cat whose tail was stepped on.
"What do you mean, Sister Fu Fu? Are you going to abandon me and my brother? Have you found new friends and don't want to be with us anymore?"
Shu Fu: ...
Hey, can you please listen to what I'm saying...
More than ten minutes later, Lu Ce's jubilant voice rang out from the other end of the phone. His excitement was no less than Yao Ruoyun's: "Let's pack now - hahaha, actually there's nothing to pack, our things are all in the backpack! Then where do we meet? Cham County is a bit far from the water, so we have to find a way to go to Gongmang County first, which is closer to the water! But if we go to Gongmang County, we will pass through Kangsu County first! Then we can bring Sister Chen Fa and the others along! Hahaha, I'm so happy, what should I do, I can't wait to fly over here... I want to go on an adventure at sea, I'm the king of the ocean!"
Shu Fu stopped the other party from talking nonsense with just one sentence: "What about Xu Tingfeng and the others?" The Xu Tingfeng brothers who had accompanied them all the way to escape death, the big guy and the braided guy, as well as Yue Dong and Jiang Dai.
If only the Lu Zheng brothers and Chen Fa and the others left the land, the entire team would be disbanded.
Lu Ce immediately stopped talking. Although he didn't like Xu Jiechu, he liked the other five people very much.
Everyone has been through life and death together, and they have long been better than family to each other. During the previous blizzard and low temperatures, they also supported and helped each other to get through it. No matter how much Lu Ce wanted to tow the raft and live a bright and free life from now on, he couldn't say that he would abandon the others.
There were six people. Even if they could all fit into his eldest brother's hut, there was no room for so many people to squeeze into such a small hut.
Lu Ce's voice became sad again, but this time it was sad but firm: "Then, my brother and I won't go for the time being. Let Sister Chen Fa go first, and we, we will stay..."
Shu Fu heard Lu Zheng laugh from the other side. He praised Lu Ce for a few words, and then slowly said to Shu Fu: "Did you mention something about the nesting doll upgrade just now? The hotel?"
"I know what you're thinking. I've thought about that, too, but we can't be sure yet since we haven't started towing the raft."
"It's okay. If you're not sure, we can come here and try it ourselves to confirm it. I'll explain the situation to Xu Tingfeng and the others. You just need to wait for us in the waters closest to Gongmang County. I'll do other things."
Before Lu Zheng hung up the phone, he said something similar to Yao Ruoyun, "I'm very happy to be your first person to tow a raft."
After Lu Zheng finished speaking, he hung up the phone, leaving Shu Fu scratching her head on the other end of the line.
I don't think her friends would fight after they meet each other...
**
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the raft stopped at the destination waters.
The Drifting Island House has been restored to its original small shape. When she woke up today, she found that the weather in this deep water area was surprisingly good. Although it was raining outside, there was no thunderstorm, no hail, and no huge waves on the water.
So she changed the house shape back and turned off the shield.
In such waters, an S-class villa without a protective cover is too eye-catching, and a raft cabin is more suitable.
At this moment, she wrapped a long coat over her home clothes, walked out of the back door of the Drifting Island House in slippers, and walked up the stairs to the second-floor terrace with an umbrella.
It wasn't too cold outside, the temperature was around 18 to 20 degrees. She opened the balcony door, opened the umbrella again, leaned against the front fence, and took a deep breath.
The sea breeze blew, and the air around me was filled with the breath of the ocean, free, open, and boundless. Although the rain was not heavy, because the land disappeared, there were few birds flying in the sky, but on the seashore where the waves were surging, fish could be seen jumping out of the water from time to time.
Before dark yesterday, she had taken the raft down a long dive, mainly to try how deep the raft could dive after reaching level 5. As a result, probably because the raft had left the Northland Plateau and entered deep waters during the dive, she saw some fish species she had never seen before after diving 20 to 30 meters.
It's not entirely true to say that she has never seen them before, because some of the fish actually looked familiar, but they were seven or eight times larger than she remembered, and their mouths, fins, and tails had all changed to varying degrees, as if a new season of spring had occurred and some changes had taken place.
They became bigger and stronger, and seemed to have started to grow wildly because the planet was missing its biggest natural enemy - humans.
Shu Fu quickly and slowly identified some of the fish, such as a school of crucian carp more than one meter long, and catfish and black carp as big as pufferfish... She looked for a while and found that she seemed to have gigantic fear.
This giant freshwater fish is not as colorful as marine fish, but maintains its original dark gray color. One or two of them are okay, but when the surrounding waters are full of such fish, it is easy to give people goose bumps.
After that, the raft continued to dive, and the light around it dimmed, but she saw a larger shadow swaying in the deep water. The raft finally stopped diving at -300 on the water map. At this time, the water around the underwater bedroom had become pitch black, which was a darker darkness than the middle of the night.
In such an environment, even though she knew she was absolutely safe in the house on the drifting island, she still felt panic in her heart, and then quickly let the raft float back to the surface.
On the terrace, the raindrops hit the umbrella in her hand, making a tiny sound. The slight vibration of the rain hitting the umbrella surface was transmitted to her palm through the umbrella handle.
She tucked the umbrella handle under her arm, summoned the map panel from her bracelet, and used it to steer the raft toward the vast expanse of water to the east.
The raft was not moving fast, only about thirty per hour, but as it was moving, the sea breeze would occasionally carry some slanting raindrops onto her clothes. Shu Fu did not hide, but just stood quietly and straight in front of the fence, enjoying everything in this vast world.
There are no invisible barriers, nor are there visible but unreachable bodies of water. She can freely reach every place within her sight.
There was no moment more clearly than this one that made her feel the meaning of the words "free drifting in global waters".
She was completely free!
