So, after getting the consent of the sailboat owner, the proud and proud pelican got a small living space on the boat.
It's not much. In the 5 square meters on the edge of the deck, no open defecation or any damage is allowed.
Zhang Ming originally wanted to give it a funny name - "Bird Mama".
As a result, the pelican roared loudly when he heard the name "Bird Mama", looking so arrogant that it was unreasonable, so he had no choice but to give up.
Just call it Pelican.
The relationship between the Pelican and all the crew members is not good. It bullies others and is severely insecure and cannot trust other people.
Just like suffering from mania, when there is any disturbance, they will flap their wings and try to escape - this is normal. If the animals living in the Sea of Demon Gods are not vigilant enough, they would have been wiped out long ago.
It didn't dare to provoke Zhang Ming, and the Shimama on the mast looked like something so weird that it couldn't be understood...
The only ones it can provoke are little white turtles.
The pelican also knows that it cannot eat the small white turtle, but it can provoke it with its long beak, just like playing with a rubber ball.
As a result, the feud between the two sides gradually deepened, and they battled wits and courage every day.
Xiaobai couldn't beat the pelican, but he showed great scheming. Once, he even put pepper water on himself, putting himself in danger and deliberately seduced the pelican to eat him.
The final result was that the big pelican roared "Quack", was really stung, and rushed into the sea like a madman!
Zhang Ming was silly and happy every day, as if he were watching a large-scale palace battle drama. He clapped his hands happily: "You are smart, Xiaobai. You know you can't beat me, but you can use tricks!"
The pelican's swimming ability is naturally quite outstanding. Its feathers are fluffy and soft, allowing it to float on the water like a duck.
"Before you met us, you always rested like this when you were tired from flying. It's not impossible to float on the water, but there is no room for error when encountering danger."
The Pelicans insulted "quack", and then the long neck twisted, and the huge mouth was at the sea water. Not to mention ecstasy.
It proudly stated that its life was not very good recently and it was unwilling to board the ship.
Zhang Ming spread his hands and shook his head indifferently: "As the only landing point in a radius of who knows how many kilometers, you are so arrogant that you can keep swimming in the water without getting on the boat."
"Gah!"
The proud pelican screamed fiercely and really swam away.
Of course, at night, it shamelessly returns.
Suddenly, Zhang Ming sensed something and looked in another direction.
【Your letter! 】
coming!
A gift for this year!
Feeling happy, I jumped into the water with a plop and picked up the drift bottle floating on the sea.
The exchange meeting once every 14 months was not easy, and he was looking forward to it.
The bottle is filled with letters.
The first letter was written by Lu Tuyu and his sister: "This is from the strongest brother-in-law in mankind! Please accept this year's dog food!"
"Damn, you're so proud of me, right... Sooner or later, I'm going to go back and blow your ass off." Lao Zhang cursed, but his face was filled with a happy smile, and he couldn't wait to open the letter.
Lu Tuyu described his happy life after marriage.
"As an ordinary soldier, my wife and I have been apart more often than not, but our ordinary and simple life makes me content."
"In this era, everyone's life is generally not very good. Being able to marry a wife, have children, and live happily like now, there is nothing to be picky about."
"By the way, brother-in-law, I have good news for you. You have officially been promoted to uncle!"
Ah, uncle?
"Your sister gave birth to a 6-pound baby girl. Mother and daughter are safe."
Ah, niece?
"What a tiny human cub. Her head is only as big as my fist, and her skin is as pink and tender as a roasted suckling pig."
"Except for eating, sleeping, and eating, drinking, and defecating, I know nothing else throughout my life."
"My past self would never understand why giving birth to offspring is a spiritual practice in life..."
"Now I understand, because she is the epitome of my childhood, my life has been fixed, there is not much change."
"Her life has just begun, and she has a future that may be full of hope or quite ordinary. I need to take on the responsibilities of a father. The whole process is difficult but full of a sense of accomplishment."
"She is such a funny little person. When I wrote this letter, she was crying again, wanting to drink milk, or being sleepy! Why are there such weak creatures in the world? Why is she always crying? !”
Lu Tuyu began to describe in the letter how he played with his daughter and how he loved his wife. He made Lao Zhang burst into tears and felt disgusted and a little envious.
The feeling of suddenly becoming an uncle is really... strange.
During the 14-month gap, anything can happen.
In the blink of an eye, I have an extra family member!
"Damn it, you gave birth to a daughter, how could I beat her? Why didn't you give birth to a son!" Zhang Ming cursed.
Lu Tuyu wrote in the letter: "I have to say that the overall fertility rate of the entire society is now very low. Today's young people have enjoyed the prosperity of the old era. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. In contrast, From today's poverty, raising future generations will bring about a greater consumption downgrade."
"Diapers and formula are too expensive, and now we have to use diapers again."
"As a result, many people simply stop having children. The marriage rate is not bad, but the fertility rate is too low."
"I can't criticize their choice. After all, whether to have children or not is a kind of personal freedom. But I think DINK in this era is not a good choice.
"My life is pretty good now, but it will only get worse in the future, getting worse year by year."
"However, the next generation will grow up in poverty. They have not experienced the prosperity of the old era, and the fertility rate may recover a little. There is no way that human beings will perish because of infertility. The waves of the times are one after another. In the past, Everything will be wiped out.”
"My wife asked me to say hello to you! She said she is too lazy to write to you. She has nothing to say. You won't die anyway, just like a little strong guy."
"I wish my brother-in-law good health! Lu Tuyu left a message."
On the back of the letter was a color photo of the family, Zhang Ming's parents, sister, Lu Tuyu, and a newborn baby girl, who was crying in front of the camera.
There is another person who was photoshopped, that is, Lao Zhang himself. He used a photo from college, and he looks like a young guy who is quite immature.
Zhang Ming pondered over the photo for a few minutes. Suddenly he couldn't catch his breath and coughed twice.
"There's sand in my eyes."
He wiped his eyes and copied the letter and photos into the "Memory Library" to treasure them forever.
These are his precious memories... It's great that some of his relatives are still paying attention to him.
It's great to have an extra child in the family.
"What gift should I give to my niece..." After having this idea, Zhang Ming kept thinking.
There are a lot of good things stored in his big shell, from decorations to ores to some rare and rare items.
However, it is not appropriate to give supernatural items to newborn children.
Various supernatural factors still have many unknown principles for the growth and development of the human body. Most experts believe that children should not be overly exposed to supernatural phenomena before they are minors. In case of distortion, the gain will outweigh the gain.
"Let's give some gold as a gift. Although it is cheap, the gift is light but the affection is heavy." Zhang Ming planned to make a gold pendant himself and send it back.
Thinking of the child wearing the necklace he made himself, a kind grandfather smile appeared on his face.
"Make a little turtle pendant, just suitable for children."
The next letter was written by Lao Wang, a dense series of small characters.
"Hello, Brother Zhang. I'm glad to receive your letter! Has your sailboat been completed recently and has it set off?"
"Recent breakthroughs in the supernatural have been sent via radio. I wonder if you have received a new generation of human breathing techniques? Do you have different opinions? You can tell me through letters."
"Since the broadcast is relayed by Gaia's consciousness, we are not sure how long it can be relayed for you. If there is no broadcast in the future, our communication will undoubtedly be more troublesome."
"The recent work has been very hard and there are a lot of troubles. Looking around the world, I am currently the only one who has reached the dual limits of [physical] and [perception]. There are already 23 people who have reached the [physical] limit. But no one has ever broken through it. Any level. We have to admit that the innate gap between individuals still exists, and it is even more difficult to break through human limits."
"But Brother Zhang, don't worry. Society is still running stably. It would be good to provide a practice method for all people. In the end, more talents will come forward."
"But the progress of human breathing alone is still a little slow. Especially in the spiritual field, it always feels like a snail crawling. The combat power of individual soldiers has never been improved, and it is very difficult to investigate abnormal phenomena."
"Recently, the whole world is not at peace. The gradual formation of Pangea has led to more frequent wars."
"And in some marginal areas, living dead-like existences have appeared. These living dead are like zombies, muddleheaded, but imitating human behavior, and there are even signs of large-scale spread."
"We sent some people to try to investigate what these strange disasters were, but all the investigators we sent disappeared."
"In addition, in the same fringe area, an infectious disease with extremely high contagiousness, long incubation period, and extremely high mortality rate has emerged. I have accepted the task and went to the area to investigate whether there is a special source of infection. You may not know the seriousness of this matter , my superiors once revealed to me that if the disease spreads unchecked, we will not rule out using strategic-grade nuclear weapons to wipe out everything in this area."
Zhang Ming was stunned for a moment. It was really hard for him to imagine these supernatural accidents.
Wang Fumin said: "Over the years, I have carried out many missions. Sometimes I am really exhausted physically and mentally. One day I fly to the east, and the next I fly to the west."
"Disasters often occur in remote areas, and these disasters tend to spread."
"If no one solves it, sooner or later it will affect us."
"Unless we use hydrogen bombs to blow up all the surrounding areas into no-man's land, we won't have to worry about them. Obviously, this approach is unrealistic."
"I have always had an idea. Since there are no more seven continents and four oceans after the formation of Pangea, why not think of a way to unify it? It would be great if there was only one human government in the world and all the power was concentrated at one point! Concentrate the power, How many big things can be done without the endless wrangling like now!"
"Of course, my idea may be just a castle in the air, and even a little naive. The outside world is too poor, and even if we want to help, we can't afford it."
"The forces are divided and everyone has his own agenda. If you want those people to give up their power, the only solution is war and death."
"Currently, we do not have enough determination and will to launch a unification war, so we are caught in the current dilemma."
"If there's a fire, you have to go around putting out the fire. If you can't save it, you'll die. If you die, it will lead to a weird situation where the disaster will spread..."
Zhang Ming sighed. He could understand the troubles encountered by the people on earth, and he also understood Lao Wang's troubles.
Daxia is not the only big country in the world. It cannot take care of its own territory. How can He De rescue others?
What's more, if you want to truly unify Pangea, several major powers must reach a political consensus and solve the problem through peaceful unification. Otherwise, a bunch of hydrogen bombs aiming at each other will not be easy.
This matter is obviously still too difficult...
There is nothing he, Lao Zhang, can do. Unless he has cultivated to the level of "Xuanwu" and destroys the world at every turn, there is only the slightest possibility...
Lao Wang finally wrote in the letter: "After so many complaints, let me tell you one more interesting thing. Youth, youth is back!"
"RNG team finally fucking won the championship!!"
"A total of 8 teams participated in the competition, and RNG won the championship in a crushing manner. I witnessed the scene when they won the championship! After fulfilling the fans' wishes, RNG announced that it would disband on the spot!"
"Oh, my youth came back for a moment, and then passed away quietly. I am already an old man, and Lu Tuyu has given birth to a child. I really want to go back to the Internet cafe and spend the whole day doing it."
"I just want to be an ordinary person, Lao Zhang, do you understand me?"
Zhang Ming laughed "hehehe". Lu Tuyu was a big troll and an angry young man at the beginning, but ended up living an ordinary and peaceful life.
fine.
He, Lao Zhang, watched them show affection and eat dog food with envy and jealousy.
Lao Wang originally only wanted to be an ordinary person, but like fate, he became the strongest man in the world, working hard for the whole world.
It’s only been eight short years!
It seems like a lot has happened...
Destiny is really unpredictable...
