Three days later.
Morning.
Zhang Xiaoman was packing his luggage at home and talking on the phone.
"Sixth Master, I'm leaving today, yes, that's right, to go to the sea to play. I'm the only one, my mother won't go. Don't worry, I have brought Dahei back, and I promise to keep you black and fat. By the way, Mr. Liu, how have you been over there these two days?"
Pei Laoliu's energetic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Haha, I feel very comfortable here. You don't know, the monastic conference has been delayed for some reasons. It seems to be half a month away. It won’t be held until later, so I won’t go back at all. I’ll just spend some time in Binglong Province and treat it as a tourist. Anyway, the food and accommodation will be provided, and it’s rare for me, Mr. Liu, to be happy.”
"Ah? Why is it so late?"
Liu Ye explained: "I heard that the biggest sponsor this time has something to do, so the conference has to be postponed. By the way, Dahei would like to trouble you to take care of me for a while. I'll ask Liu Ye later. You are eating the old goose!"
As soon as he mentioned eating old goose again, Zhang Xiaoman quickly refused. After saying two more words of farewell, he ended the call with the other party's sigh of "You don't understand goose."
After having dinner with Su Fu and the others last night, Zhang Xiaoman received a call back from Xiao Shun the next day. On the other end of the phone, the other party was very happy to say that the original destination of those friends this time was also with Zhang Xiaoman. Xiao Man coincided with this, so there was no need to change the route of the downwind ship this time. In a few days, he would be able to board the ship directly from Bailanyu City.
Zhang Xiaoman was naturally very happy about this. After thanking the other party again, he also used the past few days to prepare at home.
Although his mother Pei Lingsu expressed some concerns about his trip, she did not say anything to stop him in the end.
First of all, Zhang Xiaoman set off with other professional teams, so there was no danger along the way.
Secondly, my mother also knows that her son has a super escape tool - a hearthstone, so even if he is unlucky and encounters a shipwreck, he can return to the city at any time without risking his life.
As for the place to return to the city in Hearthstone, Zhang Xiaoman has been conducting experiments and explorations recently. He tried sleeping in other places, such as in an anti-gravity car, Pei Laoliu's house, a hotel...
But in the end, his return location was still set on the sofa. Zhang Xiaoman now also has some guesses about the mechanism of his return to the city. The location it transmits should not be "the place where he last slept", but the location of his "home" in his subconscious.
Zhang Xiaoman also had great expectations for this operation. After all, he had only seen things like ocean voyages on TV before, and had never even thought about his own experience.
But now, with such a group of adventure enthusiasts introduced by Xiao Shun and the professional team behind them, Zhang Xiaoman is looking forward to this trip and is even more confident.
However, in the past three days, except for packing some things needed to prepare for this trip, he did not waste the rest of his time. After checking the abnormal information location provided by Li Xiang, Zhang Xiaoman went to several places he had marked before to explore one by one, hoping to find one or two monsters and earn another wave of points.
The main reason why he did this was to reserve more points in case he encountered any unexpected situations on the road. It's a pity that after some careful exploration, Zhang Xiaoman could not find any traces of monsters in those places.
Although residents in one of them said that they had indeed heard strange laughter coming from a nearby factory, after he went in and searched for several hours, he still found nothing unusual.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't know if he was just unlucky and didn't meet her, or if the people here were spreading rumors and exaggerating.
In short, just when he took the time to go to the toilet and went back to look for it for a while, he saw government vehicles arriving one after another. Several policemen also inquired about the situation with the surrounding residents, and then entered one after another. In the factory, this forced him to stop thinking about going over and taking another look.
It is worth mentioning that on the second day, Zhang Xiaoman accompanied Lin Sisi to the pet hospital and picked up the big golden retriever named Tutu.
Although the little girl can't see, her senses are very sensitive. When she followed Zhang Xiaoman along the way, he almost forgot that this girl was actually a blind girl.
Zhang Xiaoman also thought about whether he could buy a basket of steamed buns to try to treat Lin Sisi's eyes, but considering that he was going to sea soon, he needed to save some points just in case. Therefore, this idea was temporarily shelved by him, and he would wait until he came back to make any plans.
As for the lottery, it's still the same pitiful three-kneeling, all useless gray garbage.
Zhang Xiaoman feels that his probability of drawing gray in recent times seems to be very high. He doesn't know if it is because he has been unlucky recently, or if this is actually the normal operation of the system, and he was just lucky before.
After packing his luggage, Zhang Xiaoman opened his phone and looked at a chat group inside, which contained the time and destination of his departure.
"Bailanyu City Xingang Pier, departing at 1 pm..." After Zhang Xiaoman confirmed the information, he couldn't help but look at the avatars of other members in the group.
This chat group is an adventure exchange group for Xiao Shun and his friends. In addition to chatting and kicking, other activities are also organized here.
There were very few people in the group, and together with Zhang Xiaoman, there were only 10 people in total. They were all second-generation rich people who often played together. It was considered a private circle between them.
As the leader of the group, Xiao Shun added Zhang Xiaoman to the group, but did not reveal his identity as a transcendent. He only said that he was a close friend of Su Changqing and he was also an adventure enthusiast, and he hoped to work together in the future.
Several people in the group are very enthusiastic and like to chat. Although Zhang Xiaoman has been diving for a long time, he also reads every message in it. I feel that this group of guys is similar to his colleagues, and they often fight. The fights are fierce, but also very interesting.
"Clothes, power banks, compasses, binoculars, medicine, ropes... well, that's pretty much it. The diving equipment will be provided on the ship. I'll see what else I need to bring..."
Zhang Xiaoman clicked on the items in the suitcase and then looked at the two things on the other table.
"The blood of the unicorn, the hearth stone... It seems that I can only bring these two of the combat items I have. I'm afraid I can't bring the others for the time being..."
Zhang Xiaoman is also very depressed about this. So far, whether it is a sword or a water gun, he cannot pass the security check. But fortunately, he already has the skill of "Sand Soldier Appear", so for the time being, he can't use these two things. Dependence is not high either.
As for the cloak, Zhang Xiaoman has been wearing it for the past few days. At the same time, he has used the Nostalgia Hearthstone to increase his energy value to the saturated 50 points. It can be said that he is fully prepared for this voyage.
"Okay, everything is ready, get ready to go!" Zhang Xiaoman touched the Jinbao dog's head, turned around and went out.
