"I don't know, but I can guess. They've been preparing for it for so long, but they can't tell me. After thinking about it, it's probably just a surprise, right?"
Huang Chen smiled, but suddenly his face turned serious, "It can't be a prank, right?"
"Ahaha, of course it's not a prank." Yang Yan laughed, but also felt a little depressed, "But if it's like this, the surprise won't be surprising enough."
"It doesn't matter. I don't need to know what the surprise is. Just knowing that there is this surprise is enough to make me happy." Huang Chen's face was filled with smiles.
Yang Yan paused, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Huang Chen turned around and was about to talk to Tiancheng about changing the departure time, but suddenly he heard a burst of light and hurried footsteps coming from not far away.
The footsteps were light, yet full of meaning. Along with the footsteps, the little one muttered in confusion, "How strange... why is everyone gone?"
"Found it!" Huang Chen smiled and walked in the direction of the footsteps. Soon he found a cat girl with silver hair at the corner.
She was wearing a white dress and holding a few red bags in her hands. Her silver hair was tied behind her head, leaving only a few short strands of hair by her ears. The furry cat ears on top of her head swayed slightly with her steps.
"Never mind. I already have the stuff in my hands, so I might as well try it myself... When did you show up?"
The nagging voice suddenly increased. Xuefeng stared at Huang Chen without any shock, but suddenly looked at Yang Yan beside him, and immediately revealed a look of panic.
"No, I didn't say anything." Yang Yan immediately raised his hand and said.
"That's good... What, what? I'm not trying to hide anything." Xuefeng first breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately turned his eyes away, pretending that nothing had happened.
After hiding the red bag in her hand behind her back, she tilted her head to look at Huang Chen and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly come to the shrine? But your luck is a bit bad. For some reason, everyone in the shrine is not here. Only Master Xuefeng is here."
Are you sure it's just my bad luck... Huang Chen shook his head and couldn't help but reached out and pressed Xuefeng's head, "It's okay, I came to see you."
Seeing the commander's outstretched hand, Xuefeng's expression shifted slightly. He pretended to dodge, but then took the initiative to move forward. He narrowed his eyes and asked doubtfully, "Looking for me? Is there something troubling that needs your help, Master Xuefeng? Just tell me!"
"Yes, we are about to set off. Is Lord Xuefeng ready?" Huang Chen smiled and said directly without picking up the red bag hidden in the little guy's hand.
"Go, go?" Xuefeng was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Huh, what an idiot, you're supposed to leave tomorrow..."
She chuckled, but suddenly thought of something. Looking at Huang Chen and the others who had half-smiles on their faces, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, we should really be setting off today..." Xuefeng opened his mouth in disbelief.
The smile on her little face disappeared, but it didn't disappear. It just shifted to Huang Chen's face. The latter touched her little head and said, "Guess what?"
"Guess, guess?" Xuefeng was startled, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. "So annoying, how could it be, how could it be today?"
Yang Yan said embarrassedly, "I got the date wrong at first."
"So that's how it is..." Xuefeng muttered to herself, "But if we're about to set off..."
"What's wrong?" Huang Chen leaned over and asked the girl.
The latter was stunned, then hurriedly shook his head, "No, nothing, nothing."
"Are you sure there is nothing? Then let's go directly." Huang Chen said seriously, then pressed the little girl's head and asked her to pick her up.
Hearing this, Xuefeng's eyes widened immediately. "Wait, wait, wait, wait, there's something, something. We can't leave right away."
"Can't set off? Why?" Huang Chen asked in confusion.
"Because, because..." Xuefeng looked conflicted. He gritted his teeth for a long time, but only glared at Huang Chen. "You're so annoying!"
Chapter 948 Blessing
"You're so annoying!"
Xuefeng puffed out her lips, and her small cat ears trembled unconsciously. She stood with her hands on her hips, staring at the commander in front of her with an angry look.
However, Huang Chen knew how to deal with such a little guy.
He didn't say anything, but pretended to be hurt and turned his head away, looking at the shade of the trees not far away. In a low voice, but still audible to everyone around, he muttered to himself, "Are you starting to find the commander annoying?"
As expected, as soon as these words were spoken, the angry look on Xuefeng's face suddenly became stiff.
She pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and looked around, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
But Huang Chen just turned his back and slowly walked away, looking thin and depressed. "I know, Commander, you're annoying, right?"
Seeing this, Xuefeng finally couldn't help but stepped forward and grabbed the corner of Huang Chen's clothes, whispering, "Okay, okay, the commander is not that annoying. Lord Xuefeng still likes you very much."
"Oh, I see." Huang Chen turned around immediately, put on a smile, but his eyes were looking at the red bags in the little guy's hands.
The latter was startled, then realized what Huang Chen was looking at, and his movements suddenly became awkward, but he still did not continue to hide it, and said directly:
"This, this, is actually just some gifts I prepared earlier..."
She hesitated, but still handed the thing in her hand to Huang Chen.
Now he saw it clearly and realized that it was not a small red bag at all, but a few small amulets.
Yang Yan shook his head helplessly, spread his hands and shrugged, "Xuefeng is really like this. There is nothing you can do when facing a shameless commander."
Tiancheng didn't say anything, just covered his mouth and chuckled.
Huang Chen's face trembled when he heard this, but he did not turn around to argue with the girl. Instead, he stared at the amulets in Xuefeng's hand and asked, "Is this a surprise?"
"Well, since we are about to set off this time, I want to share some of my luck with everyone..." Xuefeng said in a low voice shyly, with an embarrassed look on his little face.
Huang Chen had already squatted down, looking up at the little girl, and reached out to touch her hair and furry cat ears. "Thank you Xuefeng, I like it very much."
"No. But because I misremembered the time, these amulets are not yet finished..."
Xuefeng explained, but before she could finish, she was picked up by Huang Chen.
The latter held the little guy in his arms and said with a hearty smile, "What does it matter if it's not finished? Master Xuefeng is right here. Can't he share his luck with me?"
"That's right!" Hearing this, Xuefeng's little face suddenly became proud again. She raised her head with a bright smile on her face, "Master Xuefeng will bless you!"
But as soon as the words fell, he hesitated again, "However, I still want to complete this amulet, so that the commander can carry Xuefeng's luck with him."
"It's okay, I can also carry Master Xuefeng with me." Huang Chen smiled and rubbed the little guy's face.
The latter lay on Huang Chen's shoulder. Although there was a hint of joy on his face, he did not seem to be very satisfied with such an answer.
His eyes kept moving back and forth over the red bags in his hands.
Tian Cheng, who was standing by, took a look, chuckled, and asked, "What steps are missing from this amulet?"
"It's still missing..." Xuefeng sat up from Huang Chen's arms, "The blessing of the witch, Master Xuefeng's luck alone is not enough."
"The blessing of the witch?" Tiancheng nodded slightly.
Huang Chen held the little guy in his arms, a little confused. He didn't know much about these amulets, but since Xuefeng said so, he just believed it.
But as for the miko...should we go and call Yamashiro, Fuso and the others back now?
Xuefeng continued, "The blessing from the Son of God should be enough."
Isn't it the same thing to call Nagato back?
Huang Chen shook his head imperceptibly, but heard Tian Cheng beside him whisper, "In that case, can we ask for the Lord God's blessing?"
"Huh?" Hearing this, Xuefeng was stunned, and a look of confusion and bewilderment flashed across his little face.
Huang Chen also stared at Tiancheng in confusion. "The Divine Lord's blessing?" Is there such a position as the Divine Lord in our port area?
He blinked, and suddenly his mind flashed with the image of his own statue sitting on the altar, and he immediately thought of something.
Could it be...
As expected, Tiancheng blinked and continued, "Since the Lord is here, wouldn't it be better to just ask him to bless us?"
As she spoke, she pointed to the worship hall not far away.
Xuefeng's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yeah, it seems to be possible."
"Wait." Huang Chen hurriedly put forward his own idea, staring at the little guy in his arms, "Don't you feel weird? Why can I do this too?"
"Furthermore, will the amulet used to protect me really work if I bless it myself?"
Xuefeng touched his chin seriously and said, "Yes, the most important thing is Xuefeng's luck. The witch's blessing only serves as a seal to prevent Xuefeng's luck from escaping."
The setting is quite complete... Huang Chen was speechless, but it was difficult to refuse, or he didn't have any idea of refusing at the beginning.
It was just that Tiancheng's suggestion left him a little stunned.
The few of them returned to the worship hall. Xuefeng jumped out of Huang Chen's arms and started to get busy with the small red bags.
Huang Chen watched her stuff some strange things in there. He didn't ask what they were, fearing that asking would further shatter his worldview.
Soon, Xuefeng prepared everything and walked up to Huang Chen with a wooden plate carrying a few red bags, staring at him with his big eyes without blinking.
The latter hesitated for a moment, then looked at Tiancheng beside him, "This...what should I do?"
"My Lord is the God Lord, you can do whatever you want." Tiancheng chuckled.
For some reason, Huang Chen silently felt that there was some cunning in the girl's smile, as if she did it on purpose.
Yang Yan on the side waved his hands and gestured in the air, "First this way, then this way."
What exactly is it?
Huang Chen complained in his heart, looking at the shining snow wind in front of him, he finally stopped hesitating, stretched out his hand and waved it in the air, made a few strange gestures, and then pointed it at the plate!
"Bless!"
Nothing happened except Tiancheng, who smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your hard work, my Lord. The blessing has been completed."
Chapter 949 Troubles on the Journey
There are not many routes from area C to area Y.
One of them is the old route, which goes along the edge of the continent and takes half a month to finally reach the coast.
Although it is an old route, there are not many cities along the way, making it a bit inconvenient to replenish supplies and rest.
The only advantage is probably that the sea is calm and the probability of encountering a siren is extremely low.
The other route was only opened in recent months.
After leaving Ningyang, they moved forward between multiple islands in area C. There were many cities along the way, and supplies were convenient. Finally, they arrived directly at the front line of area Y.
Huang Chen's purpose was to go to the front line to participate in an experiment, and the yacht finally chose this route.
Although it was a new route, the sea was calm. A small yacht was sailing on the vast ocean, leaving a long white trail and sailing leisurely into the distance.
"Tunnan is probably ahead."
Huang Chen stood on the flying bridge, looking at the coastline looming at the end of his sight, and spoke softly.
Tunnan is a small city, but it can also be regarded as the last big city in Area C along the way. Starting from Tunnan and driving south for less than a few hundred nautical miles, you will reach the border of Area C.
Then arrive at area Y.
However, it will take about three to five days to finally reach the front line.
"Honey, are you planning to stop for a bit?" New Jersey's voice came from the cab below. Huang Chen leaned over the fence, looking down, and shouted, "Of course we have to stop, and then rest for a day, and then we'll set off again tomorrow."
Replenishing food, fresh water, fuel and the like is a small matter. There are several small towns behind Tunnan, and these can also be replenished.
The most crucial issue is that Tunnan is where Agano used to live. When he set out this time, the girl came to him specifically and asked him to go over and take a look.
Even if it is just to see where the girl lived in the past, we need to stop at this station.
He continued to gaze for a while, and then the blurry cities on the skyline gradually became clear, and then he walked down the flying bridge.
New Jersey looked back from the driver's seat and shrugged helplessly, "I don't know when features like autonomous driving will be available."
"Autonomous driving... there is a chance. As long as we keep living, there will always be a chance." Huang Chen said, and walked forward and lay on the driver's seat from the back, feeling a little helpless.
Originally he was not very good at driving a boat, or rather he knew a little but not very skillfully, but now he is quite good at it.
This was the first time he began to doubt whether the method of drawing lots that he used every time he set out should be modified.
At least they should be divided into groups, with the more noisy little ones in one group, the ship girls who are good at taking care of others in one group, those who can drive yachts in one group, and so on.
The current situation would not occur, where there are four people traveling and only New Jersey can drive the boat at the beginning.
Even if New Jersey is a ship girl, there is no way she can sail all the way from the port area to the front line of area Y for half a month.
Out of desperation, Huang Chen finally learned how to drive after driving in New Jersey for three days, and took turns driving in subsequent trips.
Even so, their speed slowed down, and the journey that was expected to take half a month would take about twenty days.
Fortunately, the time reserved in advance was sufficient, so there would not be a situation where we arrived at the front line only to find that others had already completed their experiments.
In addition to driving, daily life is also a problem.
