Chapter 147 Milk Tea Shop and Breeding House
Shu Fu slowly got the car and hugged Liu Shuang, Han Lan and the others gently and said goodbye.
She also told Liu Shuang and Han Lan a time limit: one month later, she would be able to accommodate one more raft, and two months later, she would be able to accommodate two rafts.
Whether they finally decide to settle down in the waters or want to stay in the hotel for a while, they can contact her. After contacting her and agreeing on a location offshore, she will arrive in a short time.
It goes without saying how important such a commitment is.
Liu Shuang looked at the other person's serious eyes, feeling deeply moved. In so many encounters, she always thought that the other person was the one who needed help, but in fact, they were the ones who were helped.
The world was getting worse day by day, but she stood there, not feeling sorry for herself because of the temporary predicament, nor being arrogant because of her own strength. Even though she had just completed an extremely important and sensational event, her emotions were still calm as usual, which reminded her of the time she saw her outside the Louyun City Dam, she was also like this, quiet and taciturn.
At that time, she thought that her quietness came from anxiety, but now thinking about it again, she realized that the quietness came from her inner strength.
Liu Shuang wanted to say thank you, but before she could open her mouth, Shu Fu smiled and shook her head: "Sister Liu Shuang, I am also from Huaguo."
Soon there was only one car left on the deck. Cheng Yu and Awen were in the same car, which was also loaded with a batch of weapons and equipment. Awen checked the car while Cheng Yu went to move the weapons and equipment.
"Let me do it." Shu Fu said, putting the last batch of equipment on the deck back into the space, then walked to the car door and put it directly inside.
Cheng Yu walked over and closed the back door of the car, then turned around and looked at Shu Fu.
The two of them didn't communicate much during the journey, and she even sped up the trip so that everyone could arrive two hours earlier. But at this moment, she seemed to regret it a little.
"Thank you!" Cheng Yu said, as if he had predicted her reaction. "I know these two words are too light. You want to say that you are also from Hua country, but I still want to say it."
Shu Fu hummed.
"Also, I've already instructed that no one will tell anyone about the details of the raft today. Even if someone accidentally leaks it out, other people don't know your name, and the official doesn't know what you look like, so there's no way to locate you through the satellite system. Don't worry..." Even if she didn't care about these things, he didn't want her to bring him subsequent troubles because of her kindness in helping him.
Shu Fu hummed again.
"I'll contact you after everything here is over. I'm leaving...stay in a safe place and take care of yourself." He reached out his hand, gently pressed the top of her soft hair, and was about to turn around.
"Hey—" Shu Fu said, meeting his calm, dark eyes, and continued, "...don't die."
He looked at her quietly for a moment, suddenly walked towards her again, and hugged her tightly.
He still couldn't help it, he still couldn't help it, even though she only said four words.
Before today, although I was well aware of the difference between myself and the other party, it was just a difference, not such a huge gap like the one now.
Most of the people on the official side are ordinary psychics, but there are also psychics like Liu Shuang, Han Lan and Shu Fu who possess memory fragments of another world, but they are very rare and are officially called visitors from another world.
Because it happened to overlap with some of the content promoted by that organization, this matter and this name were only circulated within the official circle.
Shu Fu is not only a visitor from another world, but also very likely the most special one.
No one knows how long visitors from other worlds like them will stay in this world.
And he couldn't even be sure whether she really cared about him, or just regarded him as a senior like Liu Shuang or Han Lan... a brother-like existence.
He admitted that he had expectations, because of the earnest "Chengyu" and the special hug when they said goodbye last time, which made his expectations grow and spread uncontrollably during the time of separation, like a seed growing in his body, gradually turning into a towering tree.
But every time they meet again is like two intertwined lines. He has things he must do, and so does she. He can't be with her or protect her, so he can't even put these emotions and expectations in front of her.
What could he say? He had no right to say anything.
When he stood in front of her and looked at her, he always wanted to get close to her and hug her, but he was afraid of scaring her. He always had to spend a lot of effort to restrain and suppress the surging emotions in his heart, for fear that if he leaked a little, it would cause her trouble and then see her reject him...
He thought he could do as he did every time they parted, saying nothing, just a few goodbyes, a few words of advice, then restraining all his emotions, suppressing all his reluctance, and turning around and leaving.
However, when he saw her focused eyes on him, saw the concern for him in her eyes, and heard those four simple words, he was completely defeated.
He held her so tightly that she almost suffocated, but Shu Fu did not struggle this time. She stood there obediently and let him tighten his arms. She could feel that he seemed to be using this method to vent his longing for her and draw strength from her.
Shu Fu hugged his solid back, tiptoed and buried her cheek in his neck, and spoke in a buzzing voice: "That time... it was me."
"I know." Cheng Yu said in a hoarse voice, "Sorry, I didn't mean to avoid talking to you... In the future, you can try to trust me a little more."
"Let me try." She smiled, her tone becoming lighter.
The mission was imminent, so he didn't hold her for too long. After letting her go, he held her cheek with his big hand and tucked her messed up hair behind her ear. He looked at her face carefully again, then let go of her hand: "I'm leaving."
Just as he was about to turn around, Shu Fu suddenly spoke again: "By the way, there is something I haven't given you yet."
"What--" Cheng Yu turned around subconsciously, but his clothes in front of him were grabbed by her and he was pulled down by her. She stood on tiptoe again, came straight in front of him, tilted her head and touched his lips.
The kiss lasted for two seconds, not long, but not short either, long enough for her to feel the touch of his lips.
It was soft and dry, and because she didn't smoke or drink, her breath was surprisingly clean, which reminded her of the free wind in the sky and the lush green trees in the mountains.
That's a very refreshing feeling.
She let go and looked at the man who was stunned there with a smile: "Your ears are red..."
Cheng Yu: ...
"A farewell gift, don't you like it--" The tail of the words was restrained between his lips as they fell again.
It was the same kiss as before, just a simple touch of lips. The movements were not skillful and not deep, but it was heavier and closer than before. She could hear his pounding heartbeat and his heavy and disordered breathing.
After a while, he finally let go of her and held her in his arms again. His voice rang in her ears, his breath still disordered: "Do you know what this means?"
“Yes.”
"I'm not a person who will give up easily. I'm very persistent, sometimes even stubborn."
"Yeah, I think so too." She hugged his narrow waist and said with a smile, "And I don't think this is a disadvantage."
"...When I come back, I have something important to tell you."
"Well, I'll wait for you to come back."
No matter how reluctant you are, it all has to be put aside in the face of the survival of your country and humanity.
This is a soldier's responsibility and destiny.
Shu Fu stood on the deck, quietly watching the convoy go away, and sighed softly.
She planned to go to the hotel behind to say hello and prepare to return, but when she turned around, she saw Lu Zheng and Lu Ce had walked out of the hotel at some point and were standing on the deck. Lu Zheng was looking at her, while Lu Ce looked at her, then at his brother, and his head turned this and that like a rattle.
Shu Fu didn't feel embarrassed, she just smiled and said, "Oh, I was seen..."
"Sister Fufu!" Finally, it was Lu Ce who spoke up, "Is Captain Cheng your boyfriend?"
"Not yet." Shu Fu shook her head. She had a pure and fair face, but she spoke in a domineering and natural way. "He is - the man I like." After saying that, she waved her hand, indicating that she was ready to return. "Let's go back and tow your sister Fafa and sister Feifei's raft!"
"Yeah——" Lu Ce was still a teenager after all. When he heard that he had to tow two more rafts, he no longer cared about his brother's mood and rushed back to the raft happily holding Lan Lan in his arms.
The hotel will start checking in again soon. After the bathroom is unlocked, the hotel can hire a new employee. The new guests who came yesterday have not yet fully understood the hotel's facilities, so he needs to draft some more notices. And he should be able to help out in the plantation house...
There are so many things to do, he is so busy!
**
Six hours later.
On the return trip, there is naturally no need to use the accelerator card.
But because it was used for the outbound journey, the round trip to transport people and equipment only took ten hours, and the raft returned to the lake before it was completely dark.
On the high ground on the shore, the large force left here was unable to learn about the situation on Cheng Yu's side even with a satellite phone because the signal in the Sand City area was disconnected. It was not until they saw Shu Fu's raft reappear on the lake that they were sure that everything was going well.
Chen Fa and his friends had already experienced the underground river trip, so they were very confident about Shu Fu's trip. As long as the raft was on the water, it would be invincible!
They even took out poker cards to play cards because they had a good rest last night and had nothing to do while waiting. Zhang Tian was worried and in a low mood, so she didn't participate. Wu Shaoshan knew who she was worried about and knew that what happened before must have made her feel uncomfortable, so she didn't ask much and just accompanied her.
Several other people who did not participate, such as Xu Jiechu, Long Sheng, and Yue Dong, were chatting about what happened in Shacheng and Zhashui County.
They actually wanted to get some information from those team members, but unfortunately, the other party kept their mouths shut and did not reveal any news at all.
They waited for a whole day, during which there were lightning, thunder and heavy rain.
After leaving the hotel raft, they found that the weather outside was very hot, but there was water everywhere, wet, like being in a stuffy big bathroom. Because there were many reptiles outside, they had to wear long pants and rain boots, and even wrap themselves up with long sleeves.
As a result, I felt stuffy and hot all over, and had no appetite for lunch. I just ate two bites of biscuits to get by.
They watched the sky gradually darken, thinking that they would have to eat dinner here, but in a blink of an eye, they found that Shu Fu's raft had reappeared on the lake. At this moment, the joy that surged from their hearts made them clearly realize that they missed the raft and the hotel.
They had been living this kind of life for the past two years and had suffered a lot along the way, but after being on the raft for more than a month, they could no longer imagine life without the raft!
Shu Fu got off the raft with an umbrella and asked all his friends to go to the hotel to check in again. He then found Qi Kai and asked them about their future plans.
"Let's stick to the plan and find a way to take a detour to Sand City." The other party did not say that Shu Fu should send more people in.
After all, the most important thing before was not how many team members were sent in, but how many military vehicles and weapons and equipment were sent in. Now they only have one large transport vehicle and one material vehicle, both of which have large capacity to carry people.
The reason I continued to stay here was to take care of the team members before Shu Fu came back.
It just so happened that the rain had lightened up and the thunderstorm had stopped for a while, so they planned to set off immediately. It would be even better if they could meet up with other teams on the way. Shu Fu knew that they had a mission to accomplish and could not stay any longer, so he said goodbye to them directly.
In the hotel, everyone did not go back to their rooms after checking in, because they were still on a lake in the inland of Xizhou Province. If they wanted to go back to the water, they had to complete the 100 kilometers of land travel first.
Shu Fu was unlocking the "Attached Raft Holiday Card" in front of the function screen in the house.
This card is a seven-day card. After it is released, the usage time will be suspended. You can continue to use it next time or use it on a different raft. But she found that the time deducted each time was not calculated in hours, but in days.
In other words, she equipped this card yesterday afternoon, and now it is nightfall of the second day, which means that two days will be deducted for this use, and there are currently 5 days of usage time left on the card.
She didn't mind taking one or two days, but today's trip was particularly important and she had to go.
After a moment, she changed the raft back into a villa shape and released two cars from the rear deck.
They currently have three cars in total. Originally there were twelve people, four in each car. Now there are six more people, so if they squeeze together they can still fit all three cars.
As for the car that Chen Fa originally rented, the rear windshield was completely shattered, the body of the car was full of bullet holes, and the tires were blown out. It was impossible to drive it anymore, so it could only be left with Shu Fu for the time being to see when there was a chance to repair it.
However, the chance of this is not very high. After all, they are all gathered together now and will probably stay in the water for a long time later.
Taking advantage of this temporary lull in the thunderstorm, everyone drove off.
The return journey was relatively smooth because the damaged sections of the road were all close to the inland sand city. They were heading outward, but the roads were slippery and muddy due to the rain, and it was dark, so it still took them nearly two hours to get back to the shore where they had landed before.
Shu Fu released the raft again, and after everyone got off, she said that most people had been outside for the whole day, so she asked everyone to go back to clean up, rest and adjust. An hour later, they had a dinner together on her rear deck, this time they had hot pot.
After Shu Fu finished speaking, she turned to look at Chen Fa and gave her a look.
The latter understood, and after the hotpot dinner, he towed her raft.
"Long live!" This is Luze cheering.
"Senior, I love you, senior yyds!" Yao Ruoyun giggled, rushed over to hug Shu Fu, and then took her parents back to their home.
"Hot pot?" Zhang Tian looked at Wu Shaoshan in surprise. From last night till today, they had been eating a batch of food supplies that she had bought temporarily after being discharged from the hospital in Zhashui County. Most of them were dry food and convenience foods such as bread and biscuits.
Wu Shaoshan is not a psychic and does not have space in her backpack. When she left Kangsu County, she had almost nothing except the money she had saved that she secretly brought back home after Chen Fa rescued her, a backpack of luggage, and some gold hidden by her parents.
Zhang Tian was better off than her because she suddenly became a superpower during her hospitalization.
Wu Shaoshan only found out about this matter later.
After they all escaped from Zhashui County and lived in a clean and safe hotel building, Zhang Tian told her privately that her backpack seemed to be different from Chen Fa's, with only ten compartments, three of which contained things: a raft, a water purifier, and a fishing rod.
In addition, each of the seven grids can only hold one item, and the same quantity can be stacked. That is to say, for example, if a pack of instant noodles is placed in one grid, it can only be stacked to 10 packs of instant noodles.
If it is a large package of multiple-pack instant noodles, then each compartment can only hold one bag. All in all, there is space, but it is indeed small and can't hold much.
Later, they were going to meet up with Zheng Feifei in Zhashui County. She went back to her rented house to pack her things. She packed some clothes and daily necessities into a large travel bag, but she couldn't fit them into the compartment of her backpack. It was not until she split the things in the travel bag and put them into several backpacks that she put them into her space.
Fortunately, she didn't have much food and supplies at home at the time, so she packed up and took them away.
Although she thought about living on the water with Chen Fa and the others, she still had many worries. After all, food and water were limited. What would she do when they ran out of food?
So now when I first heard Shu Fu talking about having hot pot at a dinner party, I was stunned. Hot pot? Where did the hot pot ingredients come from? Where did the pot and the base come from?
Seeing this, Yao Ruoyun immediately came over and said, "Don't worry. Usually when Senior Sister says this, she will prepare all the ingredients for the dinner. Senior Sister is omnipotent. Don't worry. Just come over in a while!"
Zhang Tian was still a little worried, and couldn't help but look back as she pulled Wu Shaoshan towards the hotel.
On the deck over there, Shu Fu was pulling Zheng Feifei and seemed to be talking about something. What were they talking about?
**
[Towing position 3: Chen Fa's raft (bond value: 100). [Starting shared function: Option 1 (protective shield); Option 2: (not yet selected); Option 3: (not yet selected)] [Special: None]]
[Towing location 4: Zheng Feifei's raft (bond value: 96). [Starting shared function: Select 1 (protective shield); Select 2: (not yet selected); Select 3: (not yet selected)] [Special: None]]
This was the first time that Shu Fu had hung up two rafts at once. By this point, all the gold cards had been used up, and he was back to the time before liberation.
Position three was behind Yao Ruoyun's raft, almost parallel to her, and position four was behind Lu Zheng's raft, also parallel to her.
Because the raft needed to be towed, the Drifting Island House was still moored on the river bank where they had landed before. However, Chen Fa, grandmother, Zheng Feifei and Zheng's mother were not only the raft owners and their families, but also hotel guests. With these dual identities, when towing their raft, they did not need to temporarily close the protective shield like the others had done before.
Chen Fa was not unfamiliar with her raft, as she had used it countless times.
But this was the first time that Zheng Feifei had the opportunity to launch her own raft on the water. Her raft was completely pristine, with nothing inside or outside, and it was as clean as the initial model house in the game.
But even so, Zheng's mother was extremely surprised and relieved.
Although staying in a hotel is also very good, and it is even more modern and comfortable than the current raft cabins, the traditional mentality of the Chinese people is that they always hope to have a home of their own.
No matter how ordinary, small, or simple this home is, it is your own little nest.
"Don't worry, Aunt Zheng, it won't be so shabby soon!" Shu Fu smiled and asked them to wait for a moment, then returned to the Drifting Island House.
[Towing position 3: Chen Fa's raft (bond value: 100).]
[Special: Upgraded Set (Milk Tea Shop)] (Note: When the raft is untethered, the upgraded set will automatically fall off and disappear, and the upgraded level will be reset to zero)]
[Towing position 4: Zheng Feifei's raft (bond value: 96).]
[Special: Upgraded Set (Farming House)] (Note: When the raft is untethered, the upgraded set will automatically fall off and disappear, and the upgraded level will be reset to zero)]
Shu Fu was not surprised that Chen Fa chose the "milk tea shop". As for Zheng Feifei, she finally chose the former between the "feeding house" and the "convenience store".
In fact, Zheng Feifei likes the "convenience store" very much, but because the raft construction is still in its infancy, since she has joined, she is a member here. Compared with her personal preferences, she pays more attention to the development of the entire raft.
Now that the number of people living on the raft has increased, if we want better construction and development, output is the most basic and also the most important thing.
“Growing houses” already exist, but a person cannot eat only vegetables and fruits, meat foods must also be kept up.
Since she was blessed by Shufu's raft, she naturally wanted to give back. As for raising animals, she and her mother could learn together if they didn't know how, or they could ask for help. In short, she had already experienced the most difficult things, and these things were nothing.
A moment later, the two rafts that were originally blocked by Yao Ruoyun and Lu Zheng's rafts changed at the same time.
