Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 269 Qinling Sacred Tree (28)

The next morning, the sun shone through the window into the room, making it warm. Everyone was immersed in their dreams, enjoying the rare peace and comfort.

Only when they woke up naturally did they slowly come out of the tent, stretch themselves, and then wash up simply.

After heating up the leftover chicken from last night, a rich aroma filled the air. Everyone cooked a bowl of steaming hot noodles and ate them in big mouthfuls.

After eating and drinking, the group began to pack their luggage and look for the ship that Ji Xiao saw yesterday. They strolled along the coastline.

The sun was like broken gold, shining on the sea, creating layers of ripples, like a dream, beautiful beyond measure. Just as everyone was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery, Wu Xie suddenly pointed to something not far away and exclaimed, "Look! There's a ship over there!"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw a wooden boat quietly moored by the sea. They could not help but quicken their pace and rushed towards the boat.

As we got closer, we could clearly see that the ship was a bit dilapidated, but the overall structure was still solid.

"Great, looks like we can use it to leave this place." The fat man shouted excitedly, his face filled with joy.

Everyone boarded the ship and made preparations for departure. However, just when everything was ready, the sky suddenly became gloomy without any warning, dark clouds rolled in, and the wind howled.

"Oh no, it looks like it's going to rain. The weather at sea is bad, with changeable weather." Ji Xiao said with a frown.

As soon as the voice fell, heavy rain poured down. The rain hit the boat, causing the hull to shake. It was then that they discovered that there was a not very obvious hole in the bottom of the boat. Now it was raining heavily and the sea was rough. The boat would definitely sink before it could go far.

At this time, Wu Xie said anxiously: "What should we do?"

Zhang Qiling held Ji Xiao in his arms and said, "Let's go back to the shore first. The rain is getting heavier and the tide will probably rise soon. It's dangerous to stay here now."

"Yeah." Then a few people responded and turned to run towards the woods behind them.

Zhang Qiling held Ji Xiao in his arms. Fortunately, this place was not too far from where they had rested before.

Ji Xiao took out a Dharma house from a farmyard from the space and placed it on the open space. Then she patted Zhang Qiling on the shoulder and said, "Let's go in." Then Zhang Qiling pushed open the gate and carried her in.

Seeing this, Wu Xie and the other three followed behind him and walked in.

After entering the yard, except for Zhang Qiling and Ji Xiao, the clothes of the other three people were soaked by the rain.

Zhang Qiling put Ji Xiao down, his eyes revealing a trace of worry, "Are you okay? Are you wet?"

Ji Xiao shook her head slightly and replied, "I'm fine. You didn't get wet, let alone me." She looked at the rain outside and continued, "I don't know how long this rain will last. We can only wait until it stops before thinking of a solution."

Then, he found a dry towel and handed it to everyone, "Wipe it first, don't catch a cold."

"Thank you, Xiao." Wu Xie took the towel and wiped his hair.

Several people nodded and began to look around the farmyard. The yard was a one-story building that was very common in rural areas, and the room they were in was the living room, which was furnished with some simple furniture.

"It looks quite cozy here." said the fat man with a smile.

"Yes, and it's fully furnished." Wu Xie agreed.

They did not ask Ji Xiao why he had such a courtyard and did not use it. After all, it was someone else's private property; besides, they were enjoying it now.

The main thing is that if she can do it, she must have the corresponding ability. Not to mention Zhang Qiling, her own ability is enough to show it.

However, as time went by, the sky gradually darkened, but the momentum of the rain did not decrease at all. So everyone decided to stay one more night and make other plans after the rain stopped tomorrow.

At night, everything was quiet except for the sound of raindrops. Everyone sat around the fire and discussed their next plan.

"Under the current circumstances, we can only wait until the rain stops," Wu Xie said.

"But if the rain doesn't stop, do we have to stay here forever?" asked the fat man.

"There's nothing we can do. It's too dangerous to go out to sea in this kind of weather." Zhang Qiling said.

Ji Xiao leaned against Zhang Qiling in silence for a moment, then said, "Actually, I have a way to leave here."

"What method?" The three people except Zhang Qiling asked in unison.

Ji Xiao raised her right hand slightly, pointed at herself, and said softly: "Actually, I once bought a luxury yacht and put it away."

"Wow! This is absolutely amazing!" Wu Xie shouted excitedly.

However, Ji Xiao immediately added: "But we can't drive the boat to the area near the coastline."

"It doesn't matter, as long as we can return safely." Hei Xia Zi responded calmly.

In this way, the long and torturous night passed quietly.

As dawn broke, the rain gradually stopped. Ji Xiao packed up the house and the group returned to the shore. Then, Ji Xiao took out the yacht from the space.

Fortunately, this place is not too far from their coastline. After two days of sailing, Ji Xiao stopped at an uninhabited island near the coastline and put the boat away; in the evening, they boarded a giant cruise ship returning home.

After three days of drifting on the sea, everyone finally returned home, ending this thrilling journey.
