Looking at how Ye Shang raises his son now, forget it, she's too poor to raise such a delicate little boy.
Sigh, maybe it's because she's getting old, and it hurts her deeply.
A moment later, Chen Zui rode over on a giant lion, and He Shengyou transformed into human form and sat down beside him.
He didn't usually need to patrol much during the day, so he had plenty of time to play with Chen Zui.
"Sister, when will we get ashore?" Chen Zui asked, sitting on the other side of her chair.
He's been on the boat these past few days and hasn't gone ashore; he always feels uneasy about being on land.
"The day after tomorrow," Ye Shang said.
Chen Zui then nodded, "Can I come ashore with you then?"
"We can only wander around nearby. The surrounding countries are all small countries. We'll go ashore together when we reach a larger country," Ye Shang explained. There's basically no need to stay in the small countries; we just need to go up and see if anyone is there.
If they truly exist, as long as they don't intend to kill, she won't cause trouble and will naturally leave.
Her plan was to travel around the nearby countries, but she would leave Eastern Europe for the time being. Those countries were all developed countries, and their reaction speed was no worse than that of the United States. On the contrary, their survival rate might even be higher.
Once they return home, their task will be to strengthen defenses, weapons, training of superhumans, and stockpiling of munitions.
Chen, being the most sensible, replied, "Okay, I'll listen to my sister."
Meng Qiulan hadn't met Chen Zui before, and asked, "Is this your younger brother?"
They don't look alike. Could it be that one looks like the mother and the other like the father?
Ye Shang simply responded with a "Mm".
After receiving the answer, Meng Qiulan smiled and then took out a tortoise shell and a few copper coins. "It seems boring, little friend. Let's play a game."
Chen Zui had a strange expression on his face. He wasn't very good at hiding his facial expressions, but he smiled and said, "Okay."
Those who knew the reason watched Meng Qiulan silently without saying a word.
Meng Qiulan didn't understand what kind of looks they were giving her, and only said, "Do you want to play? It's free. Before the apocalypse, this would have cost at least hundreds of thousands per session."
You can judge a lot by observing the attitude of wealthy people. If you can rip them off, you can rip them off as much as possible. If they are shrewd and difficult to rip off, you can basically figure out their attitude.
She placed the copper coins on the tortoise shell with a serious air, then took out three thin incense sticks from the small incense box she always carried, and after praying devoutly, she asked Chen Zui, "What do you want to know?"
Chen thought for a moment and said, "Let's just say it's fate."
Meng Qiulan raised an eyebrow. Is the beginning really this difficult? Fate, it seems, is a bit hard to predict. The main thing is that a person's fortune is constantly changing, and it's not a one-way street. Perhaps one day it will take a turn for the worse.
However, she still smiled and asked about Chen Zui's birthday, writing the date on a talisman with cinnabar ink, placing it inside the tortoise shell, and shaking it. As if remembering something, she said, "It might not be that detailed."
Chen Zui smiled and said, "Okay."
In fact, he had already foreseen the outcome when Meng Qiulan started shaking, and he knew what she was going to say next.
Predicting events more than twenty seconds in advance would have been an incredibly powerful ability even before the apocalypse, and it remains incredibly powerful now.
Sure enough, Meng Qiulan shook out the copper coins, and the talisman had already turned to ashes and fallen onto the table along with the copper coins. She ran her fingertips over the fallen copper coins one by one until she saw one of them. After looking at the size of all the copper coins, she looked up in astonishment: "Your fate has changed?"
Chen Zui nodded calmly, "Not bad."
He is now subconsciously learning Ye Shang's way of doing things, including facial expressions, posture, and so on.
He exuded a sense of Xiao Ye, a quality he himself hadn't even realized.
Meng Qiulan fell silent. Although the divination only revealed a little—that the child had lost both parents at a young age and had even lost his only relative not long ago—she saw a powerful destiny line connecting him, pulling him directly from a broken fate back onto the right track and even surpassing his previous destiny.
After a moment's thought, she replied, "Your destiny has returned to the right track and is even stronger. You have a long road ahead of you."
Chen Zui had already seen these words beforehand, but upon hearing them spoken aloud, he still expressed his gratitude in agreement: "Thank you, I will try my best."
His current identity is the younger brother of the only supreme expert in the Fifth Base. He absolutely cannot hold anyone back. Chen Zui clenched his small fists on his knees.
Seeing that he was stiff and straight, Ye Shang reached out and patted his little head: "The future of Chengda is still a long way off, no rush."
Forcing growth is unacceptable. As long as she is there, Chen Zui will still receive the best resources, which is undeniable.
Seeing this, Meng Qiulan understood everything. She instantly felt envious of the child. His fate was about to fall apart, but he encountered an extremely powerful person who pulled him back on the right track. This was simply incredible luck!
He Shengyou, who was standing to the side, couldn't see any of this. He excitedly leaned over and said, "Master, can you tell my fortune too? Let's see if I have any good luck?"
Meng Qiulan glanced at him, then looked away, unsure. She glanced at him again and said, "You're a bit strange."
She couldn't quite put her finger on what was strange, so she asked, "When was your birthday?"
He Shengyou replied, "June 13th."
“Okay, I’ll take a look.” Meng Qiulan, as before, first bowed to the lit incense, then wrote the date on the talisman, folded it up, and put it into the tortoise shell, shaking it.
A moment later, she poured out the copper coins and talisman paper from the tortoise shell. The talisman paper had turned to ashes and scattered on the copper coins, which she carefully brushed away one by one.
After reading the divination, she pondered for a moment. "It seems your life has been saved." She asked somewhat uncertainly, "You almost died before?"
He Shengyou's eyes widened instantly, shining brightly, and he said with admiration, "Master, it really is!"
Meng Qiulan thought for a moment and continued, "Your fate is also somewhat like it was pulled back from another place to the present."
Why are these two people's divination results so similar? If He Shengyou hadn't been starry-eyed, she would have suspected that the coins were expired, since both divinations came back the same.
He Shengyou said with certainty, "Yes, that's right. I almost became a zombie before, and it was a little girl who kept me in my mutated animal state and saved me."
He transformed into a giant lion and couldn't walk or eat in human form for a whole year.
Meng Qiulan suddenly realized, "No wonder." She continued, "Then it won't matter. Now that you've passed the biggest hurdle, you won't encounter any major crises, but minor dangers will still keep coming. Just remember to be on guard."
