"belch--"
"Hiccup—" The cranes flew in the sea of clouds. The silly little crane followed closely behind the cool crane, flying seriously and cutely. The other cranes sometimes followed along, sometimes playing around.
When Xiao Yu was writing novels about cultivating immortals, he often wondered: Don't immortal cultivators have a fear of heights? A flying sword is narrower than a skateboard, so won't it accidentally fall off?
Later, he decided that flying a sword wasn't so bad. After all, no matter how high the sword flew, at least he was in control. The true hero was riding a flying monster beast. Most flying monster beasts rode on clouds and mist. If they accidentally encountered a hostile monster beast, they could... ahem!
Now that he was reborn, it felt like a dream. Not only did he succeed in his cultivation by accident, but he also learned to fly with a sword from Zhou Yanzhi and actually rode a flying crane.
At the moment the crane soared into the sky, he felt like he was flying. The feeling of growing wings, soaring in the wind, and returning to the sky cannot be described in words.
"Very cool and exciting" is the most superficial, direct, and simple description. Scared? NONONO!
The cranes flew into the sea of clouds and played in the misty sea. He also had an urge to fly, roll, and jump in the sea of clouds...
It was as if the person who was afraid of heights was fake.
"If we fly this direction, can we get home?"
"Yes." Zhou Yanzhi held Xiao Yu and sat on the crane's back. The sea of clouds rolled and expanded around them. Occasionally, when the cranes were in the mood, they would fly to the front and dance among the towering mountains, which looked like enlarged cotton balls.
"Can we just go back?"
"Can..." Before Zhou Yanzhi finished speaking, Mr. Zhou's satellite phone rang. The reason was, of course, that someone had already complained to the country.
Zhou Yanzhi hung up the phone and looked at Xiao Yu with regret: "It's a slap in the face. It seems that this won't work."
"That's not allowed in the first place," Xiao Yu said angrily. "I saw it online before. If you don't go through customs, you're smuggling. I'm one of the ten good young people cultivated by our motherland. You can't lead me into crime."
"Well, okay, my good young man, your husband will never take you to break the law!" Zhou Yanzhi smiled. It's not like he hasn't sneaked across the border before, but those were all for special reasons.
If the crane ride back this time is used by some people with ulterior motives, not only will the Zhou family have to make some concessions in certain aspects, but if it is reported in international news, the whole of China will be in trouble.
"It seems that no matter how wealthy a person is, they must abide by the country's laws!" Zhou Yanzhi pretended to be regretful. "I originally wanted to take you back to China immediately and complete the formalities later. Unfortunately, someone exposed it. It seems that we need to wait for Su Lin for a few days before returning home."
Xiao Yu was puzzled: "Why is it a few days?"
"Because, maybe someone doesn't want us to return home so soon."
"Who?" Political enemy? Or spy?
"Insignificant people." Zhou Yanzhi was silent. After a while, he made a few phone calls.
Xiao Yu listened from the side. It seemed to be about the registration of cranes and the registration of all sentient animals in the country. He couldn't understand the details because Zhou Yanzhi spoke some of the words directly in riddles.
Under Zhou Yanzhi's command, the cranes arrived at a small archipelago in the Pacific Ocean. This small archipelago is close to the Asian plate. From the satellite map, it looks like the Diaoyutai Islands facing the Pacific Ocean.
The population here is sparse, so the environment is particularly clean and the air is particularly fresh.
It is said that this place is not officially under Zhou Yan's name, but he is the actual owner. There are not many buildings here, but there is an airport, which is usually used to transport wild seafood farmed here (seafood that is caught and kept first).
The cranes have found the right place.
For three consecutive days, workers brought large amounts of fresh deep-sea seafood to feed them every day. Xiao Yu estimated that when the time came to leave, he would be reluctant to leave.
On the second day of arriving on the island, Xiao Yu and Zhou Yanzhi signed a contract with Gao Lenghe and Xiaoshahe. Zhou Yanzhi modified the contract so that it was ostensibly a master-servant contract, but in reality it was similar to the current corporate employment system.
At least not as harsh as Gouche's.
At least now that the master is surprised, the contracted crane will not be surprised at the same time. At most, there will be some backlash due to the contract; but if it betrays, it will suffer the death penalty of the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
The two cranes were very satisfied with this.
Xiao Yu knew from the contract he had made with the little silly crane that they were a group of people with divine blood in ancient times, and could transform into humans by chance. Therefore, they had been living in seclusion in the mountains since ancient times.
Gao Lenghe and Xiaoshahe have been the pride of their tribe for nearly a thousand years. They are now several hundred years old and should be able to transform. But they haven't.
Later, the tribe sensed something and brought them to the human world, saying that as long as Zhou Yanzhi followed Xiao Yu, he could not only transform into a human in the future, but also become an immortal.
Betrayal? The little silly crane said that its master was quite kind. It didn't have to work hard to find spiritual food every day, it didn't have to do much work, and he always prepared a lot of delicious food for it. How could it possibly betray him?
Xiao Yu: ...
He didn’t know whether it could become an immortal, but Xiao Yu was sure that his contracted beast was a foodie.
"Hiccup, hiccup..." On the beach, a red-crowned crane flapped its wings and called happily. It found the 'little shrimps' that its owner loved to eat.
Recently, the cranes' main meal has been deep-sea prawns. The cranes no longer care about the weak little shrimps and small sea prawns that are carried to the shore by the tide.
Xiao Yu has been "free" recently. When he's not writing, he likes to pick up seafood on the beach. He doesn't mind the trouble of asking others to help him process it, and then fries it to make seafood fried rice.
