"Oops, I've run out of water. I have to go out again," Sui Yi, the parrot, said anxiously.
"I just packed some, do you want mine?" Chen Yuanyuan took out the bottle of spiritual spring water and handed it to Sui Yi, the parrot.
Sui Yi, the parrot, took a sniff and confirmed that it was spiritual spring water. Then he pushed open the lid of the coffin, bit into the bottle and poured the water into the coffin.
Only then did Chen Yuanyuan see the face of the person in the coffin clearly, and her heart clenched involuntarily.
At first glance, he looked somewhat similar to himself.
"She" Shen Yichen gasped in surprise.
"It's very similar, right?" Sui Yi, the parrot, sighed, looked at his master's body, and then gently closed the ice coffin again.
Shen Yichen and Chen Yuanyuan were silent, and Sui Yi was playing with the plastic bottle by himself.
"This bottle is really convenient. Isn't this thing very expensive?" Parrot Sui Yi has tried to use other objects to fill water, but most of them are gold or bronze vessels, which are too heavy after filling with water. .
"You can take it and use it. I'll just set up a water pipe for you when I come over next time." Chen Yuanyuan said.
Chen Yuanyuan also didn't expect that this parrot had persisted in fetching water every day for two thousand years, just for the hope of its owner's resurrection.
"Water pipe? What is a water pipe? Wait, will you come over again?" Parrot Sui Yi asked.
"If it wasn't so troublesome, I'd also like to come here again." Chen Yuanyuan thought of the two of them working in shifts to sail the boat day and night. If it wasn't necessary, she didn't want to come here again.
At this time, the sunlight reflected by the skylight gradually turned yellow, and it seemed that the sun would set soon.
"We're almost leaving." Shen Yichen looked at Chen Yuanyuan and said.
Although they knew there was no danger, after all, abilities could not be used here, and the two of them were already exhausted, so it was safer to return to the shore.
"If you don't want to stay for a while, I'll show you a place tomorrow. It was left behind by the owner after his death, but I don't know what it is." Parrot Sui Yi said.
"Are you talking about that slate?" Shen Yichen asked.
"Have you been there already?" Sui Yi, the parrot, asked in surprise.
"Well, don't worry, we will come over next time, but it's too time-consuming and it may take a while." Chen Yuanyuan could tell that Sui Yi hadn't seen a human being for a long time, and the loneliness of thousands of years gave him countless things to think about. explain.
"It's okay, I have a way." Sui Yi, the parrot, thought for a while, then found a whistle in a box and gave it to Chen Yuanyuan.
Chen Yuanyuan played with the whistle in her hand. It was made of black ink jade and was engraved with totems similar to those on a stone slab. It looked like an old object.
Sui Yi said that every time her master was on the other side, she would use a whistle to ask Yu Jiang to pick her up, but she could only go 50 meters away from the other side and could not dock.
"You also know the other side?" Shen Yichen thought Sui Yi had always been here.
"I know, but we can't get through. There are restrictions over there." Parrot Sui Yi said.
Shen Yichen remembered that just now he couldn't use his power at about 50 meters away from the shore. It seemed that there were certain restrictions.
"Thank you then. We'll come back another day." Chen Yuanyuan looked at it and saw that it was getting late and three days had passed. It was time to go back to the Guangdong base first.
After saying goodbye to Sui Yi, the parrot, the two of them walked back to the shore with Bye bye leading the way. After getting on the speedboat again, they waved goodbye to Bye Bye, the parrot.
"Bye! Bye!" said the parrot.
After the two started the speedboat, the boat had not moved a few meters away. When they looked back, they saw that the island was in the distance again, and the two returned to a position sixty meters away from the shore.
"We're here now?" Chen Yuanyuan asked in surprise.
"Well, it's quite convenient to come back." Shen Yichen said.
After Chen Yuanyuan came back, she immediately took a look at the water in the water tank. One-third of the water that was originally nearly full was suddenly reduced, which made Chen Yuanyuan feel heartbroken.
This one-third must be saved for at least a few months.
"Let's go back to the cave to rest tonight." Chen Yuanyuan looked at Lu Ke with heartache and said.
"Okay, please be more economical." Shen Yichen thought that the previous owner of this space had been here for a long time, and there should be a way to solve the time limit. He should study it slowly when he has the opportunity.
"Well, I have to go see the slate with Sui Yi next time. I don't know how long we will have to stay." Chen Yuanyuan sighed.
After the two returned to the cave to freshen up and rest for the night, it was already daytime when they woke up the next day.
"Should we rush now? Or should we wait until dark?" Shen Yichen asked, looking at the sunlight at the entrance of the cave.
"Let's go out and take a look first." Chen Yuanyuan said.
The weather recently has been similar to previous summer temperatures, approaching 40 degrees at noon.
Although it can't be said to be cool, it is considered normal weather for people who have experienced a period of intense heat.
"The dense fog has dispersed a lot, let's go." Chen Yuanyuan looked at the scenery down the mountain and could already vaguely see the outline of the Hecheng base.
"Go back to the Guangdong base directly?" Shen Yichen asked.
"Okay." Chen Yuanyuan said.
After returning to the cave and taking back the light steel villa, Chen Yuanyuan took back several water storage barrels filled with water.
The two walked for a while, returned to the road, got in the RV and went down the mountain.
"This mountain road looks even scarier when the fog clears." Chen Yuanyuan glanced at the cliff by the window and did not dare to look down any further.
"It will be easier to drive an off-road vehicle next time." Shen Yichen said with a smile.
"You didn't tell me earlier, your phone rang." Chen Yuanyuan saw the satellite phone Shen Yichen put aside ringing.
"You can pick it up for me and just put it on speakerphone." Shen Yichen said.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at the caller ID, and there were only three words "payment person", but she didn't know who it was.
"Oh, deputy base director, you know who gives us bonuses," Shen Yichen said after taking a look.
After Chen Yuanyuan connected the phone, an angry male voice came.
"My Brother Chen! My Uncle Chen! Your call finally got through!" Upon hearing Shen Yichen's voice, the deputy base director almost cried holding the phone.
"Didn't you say you were going to have a holiday?" Shen Yichen said calmly.
"Have you left the earth? Why don't you turn on your phone?" the deputy base director said angrily.
"Oh, it's true that I'm not on the earth." Shen Yichen glanced at Chen Yuanyuan. Being in space does not count within the scope of the earth.
"Are you kidding? Something big has happened. Are you near the Hecheng base now?" the deputy base director asked.
"I'm here, go ahead." Shen Yichen glanced at Chen Yuanyuan and saw her nodding before responding.
For Shen Yichen, this is not a job, but a responsibility, but Chen Yuanyuan is more important than responsibility.
"An unknown virus broke out across the city and the country, and some people were infected, like zombies."
Shen Yichen and Chen Yuanyuan looked at each other: white lung disease!
