Chapter 335: Chapter 323 Cosmic Spaceship?
"Is that what I meant? Is that what I meant?"
Lu Yun was so irritated that she started to feel like kicking someone again, and with a swing of her leg, she then sadly realized that she seemed to have become more and more "violent" since hanging around Shitou. She couldn’t help but hold her forehead and roll her eyes, which made Shitou burst into laughter.
After their bout of laughter, they teleported to the castle for a comfortable hot bath and then returned to their original spot. Shitou packed up and continued to deal with the roast rabbit by cutting off the burnt side.
He split the rabbit in two, and cut the good half into thin slices, threading them onto a skewer. After a quick sear over the fire and seasoning, he handed it to Lu Yun, making sure she was fed first before he took the other half, seasoned it without reheating or cutting it up, and started eating directly.
Lu Yun had long become accustomed to Shitou’s robust eating style and had started to feel that wild game should indeed be enjoyed that way for "fun." However, after one attempt, she admitted that she couldn’t appreciate that kind of rugged pleasure.
While Shitou ate, she cooked soup, and by the time he finished the half rabbit, the soup was ready. Lu Yun served him a bowl first before she also took a bowl to sip on.
The porcelain white soup spoon clinked against the porcelain bowl painted with jumping goldfish, producing a crisp sound.
As he scooped up the squid legs from the hot and sour soup, Shitou laughed, "Maybe in a little while we can even start collecting fish from the seabed. Then, aside from hunting, we’ll have sea fish to catch in the space."
"Can you still take me with you? That’s quite unusual. What kind of news did you get?"
Stirred by his words, Lu Yun knew Shitou wouldn’t speak without a basis. If it wasn’t something nearly certain, he definitely wouldn’t drop such hints to her.
They’d been cooped up for too long; it was time to go out for a wander.
"Do you still remember the underwater protective suit you showed me last time?" Shitou gave her a mysterious smile.
"Of course, I remember, but it’s not possible they already researched results and can replicate it so soon, right?" Lu Yun paused with her soup bowl in hand, a puzzled expression on her face. It hadn’t been that long; if it was true, she would find it almost fantastical.
"Of course not."
Shitou shook his head with a smile, "When that protective suit first came out, they immediately tested it, and the results were surprisingly good. To further observe and confirm the test results, aside from eating, sleeping, and attending to physiological needs, the test personnel really spent a full month underwater wearing that suit and even undertook a great underwater crossing. The whole process was recorded by the underwater camera."
"Dizzy, a whole month underwater, that’s not something ordinary people can endure—it takes immense psychological strength." Lu Yun was amazed, followed by admiration.
"Isn’t that the truth? But hard work pays off. During the test, they made a significant discovery."
Shitou replied somewhat perfunctorily, as in his opinion, those fortunate enough to be selected for testing the underwater protective suit were lucky. Normally, those who didn’t pass political reviews and didn’t meet certain physical and psychological criteria weren’t even eligible for selection.
Though it seemed tough at the moment, after all, they were the first to eat the crab, so to say, trying something that others wouldn’t have the chance to for a while.
And, if the time ever came when the recorded videos could be made public, they would even have the chance to be mentioned in history.
So, in the face of such honor, what’s a little temporary hardship and discomfort?
Even stepping back ten thousand paces, even if there were no such honor at stake, when given the order, could one refuse?
So instead of worrying, why not be optimistic and think about how you’ll get to experience something ahead of most people: directly diving into the deep sea and staying there for a while. In the future, when you’re old, that will be a topic you can proudly share with your grandkids, right?
"But there must be significant gains from this undersea journey. Maybe we’ll find a sunken ship, and then uncover hundreds of tons of gold, jewels, and antiques?" Lu Yun guessed excitedly, following the usual speculation.
"It’s said that they found quite a bit, but those discoveries are not nearly exciting enough."
Shitou suddenly smiled and winked at her, "You definitely can’t guess what they found—it’s suspected to be your ’master’s’ Cosmic Spaceship."
"Cosmic Spaceship..."
For a moment, Lu Yun didn’t know how to respond and just stared at Shitou in disbelief. Her ’master’s’ Cosmic Spaceship? That was clearly just an excuse!
"Do you remember they asked you for another round of Elixir?"
Shitou continued after Lu Yun nodded, "Grandpa mentioned over the phone that at that time they had found the suspected ’Cosmic Spaceship.’ Unfortunately, despite trying all sorts of methods for months, they couldn’t get close. It was like there was a glass barrier—they could see it but couldn’t touch it. It seems like now it’s probably our turn to take action."
"If it really is a Cosmic Spaceship, and if it still has power inside, then it’s quite possible for it to form a protective shield around it like this."
After processing everything she had absorbed over the days, Lu Yun had broadened her horizons and was no longer the ignorant person she had been before.
"If that’s the case, is there a way to get inside from the outside?" Shitou pondered.
"We could try using spiritual power to sense where the defense is weakest and then forcefully tear open a small part of the defense to enter."
Lu Yun paused for a while, "We still need to inspect the site to know for sure. If the ship’s owner has perished, and the ship is without a master, then it’s going to be much easier..."
"Could it be that it was actually left by the previous owner of your space? Think about that Mandarin Duck Stone."
Shitou’s suggestion wasn’t baseless, as both the incomplete space that Lu Yun initially acquired and the "Mandarin Duck Stone" he brought back later did suggest that Lu Yun’s space’s former owner likely landed on Earth and had probably encountered a grave mishap.
If the former owner were still alive, the space wouldn’t have changed masters. If she remained forever on Earth, then it’s highly possible that her vehicle was also still on Earth—one couldn’t imagine she arrived without any means of transportation, right?
"Hmm, your speculation is very likely. In that case, we must go to the South Sea. Even if they don’t let us go, we at least have to take a look. If it really is that... then I have a way to enter the Cosmic Spaceship’s interior without damaging the protective shield."
Lu Yun could feel her blood slowly starting to boil with anticipation, looking at Shitou with a face full of expectation. She had a feeling that this trip might actually turn out to be an experience even more thrilling than ’Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea’.
Shitou nodded, "Don’t worry, I’ll talk to grandpa and get things moving as soon as possible."
"Yeah," Lu Yun smiled and nodded, thinking that it’s always smooth sailing with someone on the inside.
She calmed her emotions and suddenly remembered something, excitedly grabbing Shitou’s hand, "Oh right, I want to take you to a place."
