People in Mondstadt, starting to develop black technology

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?" Sugar sat down next to him and handed him a cup of mint jelly.

Klee was also eating the jelly happily.

"I remembered my hometown." Shen Qin said with a smile.

Sugar consoled her, "Are you missing home? Don't worry, we'll leave tomorrow. With the speed of the transport truck, we'll be able to reach Liyue Harbor tomorrow."

Shen Qin smiled. In fact, Liyue was not his real home. Even though it had a close connection with his motherland in his previous life, it was still not his real home.

However, his feeling only lasted for a short time, and he put it out of his mind the next moment.

"Is your luggage ready?" he asked the two girls, one big and one small.

"I'm ready. I'll help Keli pack her luggage later. I'll take her to my place to sleep at night, and we'll come to see you in the morning."

Chapter 202 Sisters! Sisters! I was wrong!

It was six o'clock in the morning, and those who were going to do farm work had already gotten up early, but except for the engineering team, the working hours of Academy City were all at nine o'clock, so most people were still asleep at this time.

When Sucrose and Klee arrived at the parking lot with their luggage, they saw pitch black. More than a dozen transport trucks were squatting there like monsters. The tall black shadows gave people a great sense of oppression.

"Sister Shatang, is Brother Shen Qin still sleeping in and forgetting about going out to play?" Keli looked at the silent parking lot and said in a doubtful tone.

"Probably not... He is still quite reliable."

Shatang raised her wrist and prepared to contact Shen Qin, but at this moment the car behind them suddenly turned on the lights, and the sudden light scared the two of them.

Then the car's headlights gradually went out, leaving only the light in the cockpit on. Shen Qin, whose prank had succeeded, was looking at them with a smile through the glass.

"Ah - Brother Shen Qin is so bad!" Keli stomped her feet angrily.

"This is too much. How dare you tease us like this!"

Sugar was also very angry, he was not reliable at all!

In such a dark and quiet environment, people's psychology will be extremely sensitive and their inner fear will be magnified, so when the car lights suddenly came on, they were really scared.

Shen Qin was originally feeling smug about scaring them, but when he saw them looking unfriendly and approaching the cockpit aggressively, he admitted that he began to panic.

Sandang tapped the glass on the car door, motioning him to open the door.

His eyelids twitched, and he slowly opened the car door, then raised his hands to the two of them, and then admitted his mistake: "Sisters! Sisters! I was wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

Sucrose stood in front of him with her hands on her hips, and Klee followed suit and glared at him.

"I shouldn't scare you..." Shen Qin replied weakly, then stretched out his hand and said tentatively, "How about you beat me up?"

Sandang reached out and hit him, then sat aside angrily: "I don't want to bother with you."

Ke Li also gently slapped his palm, then ran to the passenger seat and looked at him eagerly.

Shen Qin scratched his head and went over to fasten Keli's seat belt.

"Klee's Adventure Team, let's set off!" Klee quickly put what had just happened behind her and swung her right fist forward.

She had never left Mondstadt. Lisa and Amber had told her stories about Mondstadt's neighbor Liyue, so she had always wanted to go there to play, but Captain Jean would not allow her to leave Mondstadt, and she herself did not dare to go to such a far place.

Now that she has obtained the permission of Captain Qin, and with her beloved brother Shen Qin and sister Shatang by her side, she can finally go on that long-awaited adventure in a distant place!

Shen Qin turned on the car lights, drove the car to the entrance of Academy City, stopped the car, and asked the two of them to get out.

"Eh? Brother Shen Qin, aren't we going to Liyue? Why do we have to get off here?" Klee asked puzzledly.

Although Sandu didn't say anything, she looked at him questioningly.

Shen Qin explained: "We don't drive there ourselves."

"I have contacted a caravan to pick us up. They will go to Qingce Manor first. We will go to Qingce Manor to play for a few days, and then go to Liyue Port with them."

Since it is a trip, of course you have to enjoy the process slowly.

He believed that as soon as he stepped into Liyue Harbor, he would be discovered by the Seven Stars and captured by them to work on the development plan of Guiliyuan. He would no longer have the time to leisurely play with Sucrose and the others.

Well, before I get busy, I'll take them to Qingce Village to play for a few days. Who knows how long that ghost plan will take to complete.

"So that's it!"

When Klee nodded to show that she understood, Sucrose had already unbuckled her seat belt without saying a word and used elemental power to carry her and Klee's luggage out of the car.

Shen Qin smiled bitterly; she was still angry.

"Brother Shen Qin, Sister Shatang is still angry. Can you go and comfort her?" When Shen Qin was unbuckling Keli's seat belt, she whispered in his ear.

"How can I coax her? I don't think she would respond to me if I talked to her."

Shen Qin expressed his embarrassment.

I have been single for almost forty years in this and previous life. I have never had a girlfriend and I have no idea how to please girls.

“Hmm…” Klee thought for ten seconds and answered seriously, “Is it okay to just share some delicious snacks with Sister Sugar?”

No! That's just a trick to coax you!

Shen Qin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but this gave him an inspiration.

Klee is greedy, so she can be coaxed into good behavior with snacks. By analogy, he just needs to take advantage of Sugar's preferences, right?

He put his luggage on the flying skateboard with difficulty, got off the skateboard, walked up to Sugar, and asked carefully: "Sugar, are you still angry with me?"

"No." Sugar turned slightly sideways and turned the back of her head towards him.

Shen Qin twitched the corner of his mouth and said he was not angry, your little actions are already very obvious!

Shen Holmes Qin is online, your every move reveals your true thoughts!

"Ahem." Shen Qin cleared his throat and said, "I was free a few days ago, and I thought about how you like bioalchemy, so I was wondering if I could think of a way to help you with your research."

Sandu didn't react on the surface, but her two drooping ears moved, and her attention was fully focused on his voice.

I'd like to hear what nonsense you have to say.

"There are many kinds of creatures on Teyvat. If you classify them according to certain rules and commonalities, would it be helpful for your biological research?"

"Based on the existing data, I have listed eight different classification levels from coarse to fine, from high level to low level. They are 'domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species'."

"The highest level category is 'domain'. I classify organisms from a microscopic perspective. You should have observed slices of various organisms under a microscope and know that they are all composed of tiny particles that are invisible to the naked eye. I call them cells."

"The most central structure of a cell is the nucleus, but some cells do not have a nucleus or the nucleus is unclear, so I divide organisms into the prokaryotic domain and the eukaryotic domain based on whether the cells that make up the organisms have a nucleus..."

When Shen Qin was talking about cells, Shatang turned around and faced him and listened carefully. Shen Qin did not stop and continued to talk about the knowledge of modern biological classification.

Thank you for quality education! Thank you for high school biology!

Shen Qin had only been talking for less than ten minutes when a Dawn car equipped with a passenger compartment drove over from afar. He also received a communication reminder on his wristband and had to stop transporting knowledge across time and space and prepare to get on the car with them.

"Are you really not angry now?" Shen Qin looked at Shatang's profile and asked her cautiously.

"Alas..." She sighed and looked at him helplessly, "I'm not angry anymore, I'm not angry anymore."

"But when you are free, you still have to continue teaching me this biological classification method."

"no problem!"

Chapter 203: Finished! It's Bennett!

The passenger compartment of Chenxi is five meters wide and a little over five meters high, and is divided into two floors. The decoration and layout inside were designed by Shen Qin according to the high-speed rail.

But the width of five meters is much larger than the 3.3-meter-wide high-speed rail carriage, so Shen Qin set up three rows of widened seats on each side.

"Your seats are on the upper level, please sit wherever you find an empty seat."

The staff arranged seats for Shen Qin and the others, but he felt that the older man and woman looked familiar among the three people. But he didn't pay much attention to them, thinking that they might be passengers who had taken this bus before.

Shen Qin and his companions had just found three empty seats on the upper floor and sat down when a surprised voice sounded behind them: "Shen Qin? And Ke Li?"

"It's Brother Bennett!" Kelly turned around and shouted happily.

Shen Qin turned around stiffly and saw the unlucky child with a black forehead and dark clouds on his head.

Oh wow! This trip is ruined!

Shen Qin wanted to escape, but in front of Bennett, he couldn't do anything that would make him sad, so he had to greet him and smiled reluctantly: "Ahahaha - it's Bennett, what a coincidence!"

"What a coincidence! Our adventure group rarely accepts commissions outside of Mondstadt, and we just happened to meet you! Are you going to Liyue too?"

Bennett was very happy to meet the two of them.

He used to go on adventures in Mondstadt with Klee often, but he rarely saw her outside Mondstadt in the past six months.

As for Shen Qin, the two of them had experienced a thrilling adventure in ruins together. He also gave Shen Qin ten flying skateboards and revived the glory of Benny's Adventure Group. Bennett has already listed him as one of his best friends.

But if Shen Qin knew what he was thinking, he would only say one thing - don't get involved!

"Has Brother Bennett received another commission? That's awesome!" Klee looked at him in admiration. She had always wanted to become a formal adventurer, but was rejected every time by Catherine on the grounds that she was "not old enough".

Klee ran over to Bennett and listened to his adventure stories. Shen Qin whispered to Sugar, "We need to be alert the entire time on this journey!"

"Eh? Why?"

"Let me tell you, Bennett is so unlucky..."

Shen Qin complained to Shatang about Bennett's glorious past achievements, which made Shatang stunned - it turns out that there are such unlucky people in this world?

During the conversation, the bus had already passed through the canyon in front of Academy City and arrived at the three-way intersection of Academy City-Dawn Winery-Shimen, where a convoy was already waiting.

The bus joined the convoy, and a total of ten Fruit Wine Lake transport vehicles and one Dawn passenger bus drove towards Liyue in a mighty manner.

Shen Qin was nervous all the way, but the miraculous thing was that the convoy moved forward for more than two hours without any accidents.

He looked at Bennett strangely. Could it be that this kid's luck had changed?

Just as he was wondering, the convoy passed through the stone gate, and suddenly there was a muffled thunder in the sky, and then the sky that was bright for a moment quickly darkened, and dark clouds gathered in the sky - a sign of the coming storm.

"Wasn't the weather just now pretty good? Why did it change so suddenly? I haven't seen so many clouds before." Sugar pressed her face against the window and looked up at the layers of dark clouds above.

"This is not science, this is metaphysics." Shen Qin said darkly. He suspected that this horrible weather had something to do with Bennett.

As they were talking, the sky got darker and all the cars started turning on their headlights, because if they didn't they would not be able to see the car in front of them.

Shen Qin and his companions did not see that a middle-aged man in the passenger seat of the leading vehicle issued a serious instruction to all the vehicles behind: "Reduce the speed to 60, be alert, and avoid falling behind. Everyone keep in touch and follow my command at all times!"

"Car No. 2 received."

"Three cars received."

……

The convoy did not stop, but the speed dropped a lot. The driver in the driving seat said with some fear: "Captain, are we really encountering the 'ghost area' that other caravans talked about?"

"What's the big deal? We have to believe in science."

"But we have been doing business for so many years and have never encountered such unpredictable weather... and a while ago, many caravans also encountered the same strange thing near Shimen."

"Do you know what's on the hillside to our right?" The captain's face was hidden in the darkness, and his tone was strangely calm.

"Where?"

"This place is called Wuwang Slope, the largest cemetery in Liyue. I heard that all ghosts pass through here to the Land of the Dead, but many ghosts are unwilling to leave and wander around Wuwang Slope... Oh my god!"

The driver slammed on the brakes to stop the car, and the nine cars behind him also slammed on the brakes. The harsh brake sounds echoed far away in the darkness.

"Captain, what happened?"

"Boss, why did you stop?"

……

The voices of the people in charge of the following car came from the other end of the communication, and the captain yelled at the driver: "What are you doing!"

"I...I'm scared...of this weather...is it because of ghosts?"

The captain sighed and issued an order to the vehicles behind: "All vehicles pull over to the side and rest. The current visibility is too short. If you continue driving, accidents may occur."

It seemed to be foggy at this time, and the car lights could only illuminate a distance of about ten meters ahead. Beyond that, it was all hazy and nothing could be seen clearly.

To be on the safe side, it is better not to move forward to avoid accidents such as car collisions, getting lost, etc.
