Cheng Xu (Ji): "Sister (referring to the screen screenshot), could you take a look at these guys with the surname 'Xi'? Do they need anything?"
Just as Xi Xi was pondering the pros and cons of merging servers, Cheng Xu suddenly showed up at her door with a list.
Xi Xi didn't have high expectations and browsed the list as usual. However, her eyes were immediately fixed on a name.
Xi Yiren... This name is exactly the same as my aunt's!
Xi Xi (Ping): "Do you have any specific information about this person? What about the other people in her team?" She couldn't help but seem a little anxious.
Cheng Xu (Ji): "Oh, her? I remember her."
Cheng Xu (Ji): "When I was trading instant noodles with her, I chatted with her for a few minutes."
Xi Xi (Ping): "What did you ask?"
Cheng Xu (Ji): "Hehe, what can I say? I just said a few polite words. I said that someone as visionary and generous as you should have been heard of in server 1002. You are too modest!"
Cheng Xu (Ji): "This lady, judging from the way she talks, seems to be quite old. But she can't stand flattery. It's hilarious; as soon as I said that, she immediately revealed everything about herself!"
Cheng Xu (Ji): "She said she was originally from the 1133rd generation, but after she contacted her husband and children, she was merged into this generation. She is not a native of this generation."
Cheng Xu (Ji): "Her husband is alright, his surname is Jia, but... he seems afraid of his wife, hesitant in business, I don't know if he really lacks assertiveness or..."
The uncle's surname also matches... it's definitely my aunt.
Xi Xi thought to herself with certainty that he was a shrewd but not shrewd, thoughtful but not entirely heartless, and a very complex elder.
By this calculation, my aunt has already left her maternal family's household registration and joined her own small family long ago.
Xi Xi sneered, finding it extremely ironic.
In the past, everyone fawned over her grandmother in order to get a house from the demolition, competing to be more filial. Now that her grandmother is worthless, she has given up on taking care of her and left easily.
Therefore, filial piety is merely a facade; coveting the demolished houses is the real intention.
Upon closer examination, server 1133 and server 777 are indeed far apart, and Xi Xi always felt that even if the servers were merged again, they might not be able to be combined together.
With her father's whereabouts unknown, she dared not speculate further and could only say to Cheng Xuyan, "You can skip the investigation of all the servers in between and go directly to server 1133 to find Xi Zhongcang for me while there are fewer people. Let's get this over with quickly."
Xi Xi paused for a moment before continuing.
Xi Xi (Ping): "...Please let me know whether they are alive or dead. I need to resolve this before midnight today, otherwise the search may become more difficult later."
After all, the game servers will be merged after midnight. Once the servers are merged, the number of players on each server will definitely increase, making it like finding a needle in a haystack.
Xi Xi (Ping): "If you still have unfinished dungeon quests, I advise you to complete them today and not leave them for tomorrow."
After all, merging servers carries significant risks, potentially impacting the progress of current dungeons, leading to uneven resource distribution and increased difficulty in acquiring high-level resources.
Cheng Xu only vaguely understood Xi Xi's meaning, but he could still sense the urgency in her words. He couldn't help but have a vague premonition. Only after asking her did he learn about the news of the server merge.
Shocked, Cheng Xu also felt that this matter was both reasonable and unexpected.
After all, the number of players in each server has decreased significantly since the beginning, and everyone guessed that the servers might be merged. However, he did not expect that the merge would take place at this crucial moment.
The current survival process in the tunnel has entered a critical stage, just as the supplies accumulated at the previous transit station are about to run out and there is no way to replenish them.
Moreover, the gap between rich and poor in different servers is becoming increasingly apparent. If they were to merge now, there would be too many monks and too little porridge, and the competition for various resources would only intensify.
The journey ahead is unlikely to be peaceful...
Cheng Xu (Ji): "Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible." Cheng Xu pondered to himself, then disappeared after saying this.
Xi Xi composed herself and walked back to the dining room. She saw that her mother had already ordered a lot of food, so she didn't want to spoil her fun.
Chu Zhiqin, oblivious to Xi Xi's thoughts, excitedly said, "Since you haven't come yet, I'll eat first! This Cantonese cuisine is truly authentic, better than many restaurants!"
The most important thing is—don't get extra survival points.
Chu Zhiqin felt she had hit the jackpot. She picked up a piece of red rice sausage, dipped it in the sauce, and put it in her mouth. The harmonious and delicious flavor of the crispy fried ingredients and fresh shrimp meat filled her mouth instantly.
"Wow, these shrimp are so fresh! You should try some!" Chu Zhiqin said to Xi Xi while chewing.
Xi Xi's expression shifted slightly. She glanced meaningfully at the mussels and clams on the table, then picked up her chopsticks.
Fresh mussels have plump, firm, and elastic flesh with a smooth and delicate texture.
With a gentle bite, the delicious juice bursts in your mouth, carrying a faint salty aroma of the sea and a hint of sweetness.
Xi Xi was born inland, and most of the mussels she ate growing up were dried mussels. She could only occasionally taste fresh mussels air-freighted during the harvest season. Even so, she rarely got to eat such fresh mussels.
She was startled. Looking at the plate of clams, they were fresh, plump, and juicy. Taking a small bite, she found the meat to be tender, smooth, and melt-in-your-mouth.
Even when strong seasonings such as minced garlic and chili are added during stir-frying, the original fresh taste cannot be masked.
