Chapter 352 Lan Ximeng and Wei Huaiyu 4
After enjoying a sumptuous seafood dinner that could be called a "gout set meal" at the hotel, Lan Ximeng and Wei Huaiyu held hands and strolled leisurely on the street, slowly walking towards an underground entrance.
At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on them, outlining a warm and romantic silhouette.
At the entrance, the guard stopped them politely with a professional smile and said, "Sorry, we don't provide service here at night."
Wei Huaiyu let go of Lan Ximeng's hand and said softly, "I'll go take care of it. You wait here for me."
Wei Huaiyu walked quickly to the staff, leaned over slightly, and talked to them in a low voice. The staff members' originally serious expressions relaxed instantly, and they made way one after another. Then the entrance door slowly opened.
Wei Huaiyu turned around and waved at Lan Ximeng with a confident smile on his face, indicating that she could come over.
The two walked side by side in the dim underwater passage, which was made of a special transparent material. Looking out through the pipe, the underwater world looked like a dreamy fluorescent kingdom. All kinds of luminous marine creatures flashed charming light in the darkness, like a dream.
Lan Ximeng's eyes were full of novelty and surprise. She couldn't help but move closer to Wei Huaiyu and asked softly, "What did you tell them?"
Wei Huaiyu deliberately answered seriously: "Of course I just use my status to pressure them."
Lan Ximeng pretended to be angry, raised her head, stared into Wei Huaiyu's eyes, pretended to be surprised, and said: "Wow, I didn't expect you to be such a major general who abuses your power to oppress others!" Her exaggerated expression and tone made her look like a little girl who was making a fool of herself.
Seeing Lan Ximeng's cute and pretentious look, Wei Huaiyu couldn't help but burst out laughing. He stretched out his hand and gently scratched Lan Ximeng's nose, and said lovingly: "Okay, okay, I'm just teasing you. I bought the privilege ticket, so they agreed to let us in."
Lan Ximeng curled her lips and said with pretended disdain: "Tsk, I thought it was some amazing method, but it turns out it still relies on financial resources."
The two chatted and laughed, and before they knew it they had arrived at the underwater entrance on the seabed. Wei Huaiyu stopped and looked at Lan Ximeng with concern, and said, "This place is far from the sea surface, the water pressure will be a bit high, you may feel uncomfortable."
As he spoke, he took out two capsules from his pocket and gently put one on Lan Ximeng's body.
Lan Ximeng patted the capsule on her body to make it stick tighter, and then said confidently: "I was able to move freely on the seabed four years ago. This little pressure is nothing to me."
Wei Huaiyu looked at her proud expression, reached out and touched Lan Ximeng's head, smiled and praised: "Great!"
The two played around for a while, then jumped into the water one after another. As soon as they entered the water, Wei Huaiyu skillfully took Lan Ximeng's hand, with a mysterious smile on his face, and said: "Come on, I'll take you to see the most famous underwater world of this ocean star. I guarantee it will open your eyes."
After a while, the two came to an underwater ruin. In the ruined buildings, countless marine creatures swam freely. Corals of various colors grow in every corner of the ruins, and from time to time a group of small fish with fluorescent lights swim by, scaring the seaweed into hiding.
Even though we were at the bottom of the ocean, some of the city lights shone through. The rays of light make the ruins look like an eternal fairyland.
"So beautiful!" Lan Ximeng had only seen the scenery near the underwater laboratory in the past four years. This was the first time she saw such a mysterious and beautiful world.
"It looks great, right?" Wei Huaiyu held Lan Ximeng in his arms, and the bubbles in their capsules merged together, allowing them to touch each other even on the seabed.
"Why are there such ruins here? They look like they were built by humans." Lan Ximeng asked curiously.
Wei Huaiyu also raised his head, looking at the magnificent underwater ruins, and slowly explained to Lan Ximeng: "This was not an ocean before, but a continuous iceberg. At the beginning, human technology could not change the weather of the planet, so they could only live on the icebergs."
"Later, as technology matured, this place was transformed into the most suitable environment for humans. It changed from an ice star to the ocean star it is today, and after being developed by countless star leaders, it became what it is today. The ruins in front of us are the buildings left over from when it was still an ice star." Wei Huaiyu was extremely glad that he had done his homework in advance, otherwise it would be so embarrassing to know nothing about anything.
"I see." Lan Ximeng nodded. Although she had known about it before, sometimes she still had to show it off to others. She raised the corners of her mouth and continued to nestle in Wei Huaiyu's arms, looking at the human remains in front of her.
After visiting the wonderful underwater world, Lan Ximeng's eyes were still shining with excitement. She looked up at Wei Huaiyu with curiosity, "Is there any treasure hidden here?"
"Yes." Wei Huaiyu nodded affirmatively, and then explained, "The reason why they don't open it to the public at night is to quietly place some small items inside. Look, the staff are here." He stretched out his finger and gestured to the back.
I saw a group of staff members holding several boxes and swimming towards this side nimbly. Their figures were looming in the sea where light and shadow intertwined.
Several staff members swam to Lan Ximeng and Wei Huaiyu, nodded to them politely, and then dispersed and went their separate ways. They carefully hid the "prizes" in the boxes in various corners of the seabed.
Lan Ximeng couldn't suppress her curiosity, so she quickly followed one of the staff members and took a closer look. Most of the items in the box were exquisite handicrafts, as well as various gems, stones and shell products. Under the refraction of the sea water, these objects sparkle with an attractive luster and exude a unique charm.
Seeing this, Wei Huaiyu swam to Lan Ximeng and whispered in her ear: "I heard that there is a gem worth 10,000 federal coins hidden in it. Are you interested in looking for it?"
The staff member who was hiding something not far away: ...
Lan Ximeng's eyes lit up and she responded enthusiastically, "Okay! But now we've all seen them hiding things, so it's not as novel as it used to be. Let's come back another day!" In fact, she didn't really care about the value of the gems themselves. What really attracted her was the excitement and fun of the treasure hunt.
After Lan Ximeng and Wei Huaiyu left, several staff members exchanged glances again and reached a consensus. They decided to hide the most expensive gem they had prepared in the past few days in a most secret place so that it would not be easily found by the couple.
After two hours of fun under the sea, Lan Ximeng and Wei Huaiyu returned to the hotel. Lan Ximeng walked into the bathroom and took a nice hot bath, sweeping away all her fatigue. She was wearing a soft bathrobe, her hair was still slightly wet, and she walked out lightly in the mist.
However, the scene before her made her slightly stunned. Wei Huaiyu was sitting on the bed in the hotel, staring at her with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.
