Chapter 176 Sea Cruise
"I had a nightmare. I dreamt about your future. Is that true?"
Tang Yueqing's voice seemed calm, yet revealed a suppressed sadness.
In fact, he had dreamed this dream repeatedly a long time ago, but he still had hope until the black hole appeared and doomsday remarks appeared on the Internet.
All this happened so suddenly, the world changed drastically overnight.
Yu Qing held the phone in her hand for a moment before answering his question: "It's true. I'm the only one who can do this. Everything has already been predetermined."
The other end of the phone fell silent. After an unknown amount of time, Tang Yueqing sighed and said, "Have you already figured this out?"
"Yes."
"...Okay, I respect your choice."
Tang Yueqing hung up the phone. There was no one else in the dressing room at this moment.
As early as when Yu Qing came back, he had a dream, which was about himself.
Perhaps it was because of his previous life that he never told these things to anyone, not even Tang Heyan and Yu Huilian.
In an imperial country, he was a high priest respected by the world.
At that time, Xuanmen Taoism was still very prosperous in the world. Unlike today's society, there were very few powerful people among the Xuanmen people.
Perhaps it was the merits left by the high priest in his previous life that enabled him to inherit a small part of the ability to predict the future in this life, and occasionally predict future scenes in his dreams.
In fact, when Tang Yueqing dreamed of the future, she already knew the ending.
Because he had tried to change the ending, the future cannot be changed, but it will cause a butterfly effect, and the ending may become worse, so he cut his losses in time and never tried to change the future again.
But this time he still wanted to try to change it. From Yu Qing's words, he knew that nothing could be changed and his sister had made up her mind.
…
…
In the coastal areas, all the residents living nearby have moved away. There are several fishing boats parked on the beach, and the sea water rushes onto the beach, leaving behind a slight whistling sound.
The wind blew, making a rustling sound on her clothes. The girl stood facing the sea, holding a brush in her hand.
The breath of living people attracted the creatures in the sea, and mysterious creatures crawled out from the sea one after another, including mermaids and sirens transformed from fish.
The talisman paper that fell from the sky emitted golden light and formed a giant net that covered all the sirens. A cruise ship was quietly sailing from the sea not far away.
“Wuwuwu——”
The sound of the cruise ship's whistle came from far away, and the hull gradually approached the shore. A woman was standing at the entrance of the ship. She was wearing work clothes and had a smile on her face.
As if she hadn't noticed the siren struggling in pain on the beach, she looked at the girl below with a smile and said slowly, "Miss, are you a passenger on the cruise ship?"
Yu Qing's expression remained unchanged, remaining indifferent. Upon hearing this, the corners of her mouth curled up: "Yes, you forgot to pick me up and drove away. That's not good."
The woman chuckled softly twice, an apologetic expression on her face. "I'm so sorry, sir. It was our mistake. Please board the cruise ship first. We'll upgrade your room to a higher level as compensation. Is that okay with you?"
Yu Qing didn't embarrass her and nodded: "Okay."
The cruise ship is luxuriously decorated and has three floors. The bottom floor is the staff dormitory and luggage storage area, and the first floor is the kitchen and restaurant for ordinary guests.
The second floor is the room for ordinary guests. At this time, the room is full of people, and there is an empty room, which was originally intended for guests who boarded the ship midway.
However, as compensation, the original room was upgraded to the third floor, which was where guests of status lived, and the decoration was better than that on the second floor.
In addition, there is an independent restaurant on the third floor. Guests on the third floor do not need to pay to eat here. Guests on the second floor need to obtain consent from guests on the third floor if they want to come up, and they also need to pay the corresponding fees to dine in the restaurant on the third floor.
The woman sent Yu Qing to the room and left. There was a window in her room. The curtains were drawn and she could see the rolling sea water outside.
There is a small balcony next to the floor-to-ceiling window. Open the glass door and go out, holding the railing, you can vaguely see the second-floor deck where some guests are standing, taking pictures or chatting.
The breeze blew across the sea, bringing with it a faint salty smell.
Yu Qing stood on the small balcony for a while, then went back to the room to wash up and prepare for bed. He had hardly stopped in the past few days. Although he was physically tired, he was also mentally exhausted.
In the kitchen on the other side, the sound of frying pans could be heard. It was almost dinner time, and the chefs were busy preparing the food before the guests came downstairs.
At this time, at the back kitchen door, a woman leaned against the table with her back, holding a cigarette between two fingers. She put it in her mouth and took a puff. After blowing out the smoke ring, she said lightly: "I just received a guest and upgraded her room to the third floor."
The male waiter standing opposite her smoking raised an eyebrow. He looked very young and of a good appearance. He smiled and said, "What do you think?"
"What can I think?" the woman stubbed out her cigarette and tossed it into the trash can. "We'll just take it one step at a time. This isn't the first time this has happened, and I don't know if it'll repeat itself again."
The waiter's smile faded slightly, and a serious look appeared between his brows: "Tell me, have the people on the island discovered that we have awakened?"
The woman shook her head: "No, if we had found out, we would still be standing here. You're dreaming."
"That's true, but why is there only one room available this time?"
"I don't know either, but there's still a room on the third floor. There should be five people this time. The three people without a room to stay in might not end up well."
After saying that, the woman untied her hair and tied it up again, straightened her clothes, and took out a small mirror to touch up her makeup.
The male waiter snorted coldly, his tone somewhat intriguing: "The cruise ship will dock again in three hours. The coastal residents have all moved away. If we can't accommodate enough people, we will suffer."
The woman, wearing lipstick, glanced at him and said, "Why are you panicking? Even if we move away, we'll find other ways to lure them over until the place is full."
"That's true."
"Okay, I won't tell you anymore."
"Where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going to work. Don't you see what time it is?" The woman glared at him unhappily, put away her makeup mirror and walked out.
The male waiter sighed and got himself ready to go out to work. He had to maintain the best manners when facing the customers and not make any mistakes.
They are already used to it.
…
…
Three hours passed quickly.
There were now two men and two women standing on the deserted beach.
